Michael Cohen Says He’s Given Prosecutors All They Need To Convict Trump Of Numerous Crimes
The clock is ticking on Donald Trump, and that’s why he’s so frantically claiming the 2020 election being stolen from him, even though he hasn’t provided a scintilla of evidence to support his absurd claims.
The real reason Trump is so terrified of no longer being president has everything to do with the fact that once he’s out of office, he will no longer have the legal protections afforded a sitting president which prohibit the American head of state from being criminally indicted, tried, found guilty, and incarcerated.
His former attorney, Michael Cohen, however, has all sorts of evidence that he’s handed over to prosecutors in New York, and it’s more than enough to send the Donald away for a very long time, according to what he told CBS News recently:
Does Cohen expect Trump might pardon him in an effort to keep him from cooperating further with investigators? Cohen said he’s “not interested” in any presidential pardon, and made clear that prosecutors are indeed focusing in on Trump’s finances:

Cohen, who was convicted on charges of fraud, campaign finance violations, and lying to Congress, was sentenced to three years in prison and released earlier this year when the COVID-19 pandemic began sweeping through U.S. prisons.

Trump’s financial dealings have always been his Achilles’ heel, and considering all of the dirt Cohen likely has on the Donald, the next few days are going to be the most fretful of Trump’s life. Because as of January 20, his crimes will start to catch up with him.

This dude is sad and pathetic...and people PAID to have their wedding reception here
In a video obtained by TMZ, former president Donald Trump was filmed complaining about the man who replaced him in the White House during an appearance at a wedding reception at his Mar-a-Lago resort on Saturday night.
As TMZ reports, "Check out this video we got of the former President all tux'd up for a reception that went down Saturday night at Trump's fortress of solitude, Mar-a-Lago, where the former chief himself got on the mic at one point to say a few words for the happy couple, John and Megan Arrigo ... but this speech would have nothing to do with the couple... it's all about him."
In video Trump can be heard ranting about Joe Biden, Iran and the border situation to a crowd that politely laughs after he hijacked the reception proceedings.

Report: Trump’s Inner Circle Is Terrified the Feds Are Coming for Them Next
To be fair, they probably should be.
https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/05/trump-inner-circle-raid-fears#
If you haven’t been keeping up with the legal affairs of Donald Trump of late, what you should know is that the guy is very likely f--ked. With the ex-president facing no fewer than 29 lawsuits and three criminal investigations, his tax returns are currently in the hands of Manhattan district attorney Cyrus Vance Jr., whose team is also working to flip the Trump Organization employee who knows where all the bodies are buried and has both (1) cooperated with prosecutors in the past and (2) made some rather interesting comments about the company’s legal dealings. At the same time Rudy Giuliani had his home and office raided by the feds last week, a turn of events that former U.S. attorney Preet Bharara has said is very, very bad news for the NYC mayor turned Trump lawyer/cautionary tale. All of which reportedly has the rest of the 45th president’s inner circle extremely concerned about their own legal exposure.
CNN reports that the raids on Giuliani’s Madison Avenue apartment and Park Avenue office have “left allies of the former president feeling uneasy about what could come next,” according to sources close to Trump. “This was a show of force that sent a strong message to a lot of people in Trump’s world that other things may be coming down the pipeline,” one adviser told CNN. According to that person, the seizing of Giuliani’s electronic devices has “ignited a sense of fear” inside Trump’s orbit “that Justice Department officials may be more willing to pursue investigations of the 45th president or his inner circle than many Trump allies had previously believed.” The same person opined to CNN that they couldn’t believe “you would need to send seven FBI agents to go and collect a cell phone and laptop,” calling the raid “overkill.”
Of course Giuliani and the rest of Trump’s allies may still be operating under the false sense of security provided by the last administration’s Justice Department, run by Bill Barr, wherein alleged criminals were shielded from consequences thanks to their proximity to the equally shady president. As The New York Times reported last week, political appointees at the DOJ blocked prosecutors from obtaining the Giuliani warrants last summer and again after the election. (They were only granted once Merrick Garland took over, which, as Bharara noted, was a delay that could have accidentally cost Giuliani a Trump pardon.)

And speaking of Trump’s inner circle, last week his former “fixer,” Michael Cohen, claimed that Giuliani would ultimately turn on Trump to save himself. And not just Trump, but the entire family. “There’s no doubt that [Giuliani is] nervous…. And it’s rightfully so that he’s nervous, because he knows the power of the SDNY is unlimited, and they use that power,” Cohen said. Noting that Giuliani presumably “has no interest in going to prison and spending the golden years of his life behind bars,” Cohen said, “Do I think Rudy will give up Donald in a heartbeat? Absolutely. He certainly doesn’t want to follow my path down into a 36-month sentence.” He added: “What’s ironic here is the fact that these tactics of the Southern District of New York, in terms of bullying you into a plea deal, were created by Rudy Giuliani going back 30 years ago. And it’s just ironic that the tactics that he created for that office are now going to be employed against him, in terms of making him plead guilty and, certainly, at the least, turning over information about Jared, Ivanka, about Don Jr., about Donald himself, about all of these individuals in that garbage can orbit of Donald Trump.” A person close to the 45th president concurred that Giuliani would end up cooperating with prosecutors, telling CNN: “Even the most loyal people have their breaking point,” adding that Giuliani flipping “wouldn’t shock me at all.”
In an email to CNN, the former NYC mayor’s attorney said Giuliani “has done nothing wrong” and that the raids demonstrated a “corrupt double standard” by Joe Biden’s DOJ in its treatment of Trump’s associates versus Democrats, seemingly a reference to the fact that Hunter Biden has not been prosecuted for the fictitious crimes Giuliani has claimed the president’s son committed in Ukraine. Not acknowledged by Giuliani, of course, is the other inconvenient fact that many of Trump’s allies are criminals. So, y’know, there’s that.
they even have a "TRUMP45" plate, that's dedication
What is it about Trump’s personality that engenders such loyalty and devotion from the people in his inner circle? Michael Coen (before his fall from grace) said he would be willing to “take a bullet for him”.
I’ve dealt with a couple guys like Trump in a professional context. The ones who are on the plane he’s on are really something normal people are just not prepared to deal with.
I got over that - but I got over that because I had time away. Took me a couple days of picking through the wall of bullshit I got hammered with in a two hour meeting to even see all the places where he’d misrepresented, lied, pushed buttons, and gaslit me. I had exactly zero chance of doing that in real time.
A guy like that doesn’t necessarily engender “loyalty” in the sense we commonly use the term - instead, he eats so much of your soul that after long enough with him, he’s your world, and you’ll take a bullet for him because without him, you are a directionless nothing now anyway.

- They do not care, at all, what is false or true. They will tell you whatever they think you want to hear, and they will not stop. It’s like a tsunami of bullshit. And if you can’t summon up the bad manners to just up and walk away, you start to feel like you’re drowning in it.
- They alternate pushing different buttons. Lean on you and make veiled threats one moment, cajole you the next, flatter you the third. The consistent approach is the inconsistency. Why? Because they don’t have normal emotions - they’re just kind of sociopathic, so acting mean or acting nice or acting affronted or acting concerned are all just acts to them. But they’ve learned that you have a working endocrine system, and you emotionally respond to things like threats and praise. And if they whipsaw you between feelings, they can wear you down to the point of agreement or at least passivity.
- They know how to use normal human social habits against normal humans, and they don’t have those limits themselves. They will lie outrageously, and often, knowing that (since normal people can’t and won’t) the normal people will at least be inclined to think “nobody would say that aloud if it wasn’t true, would they?” They know cutting people off midsentence or steamrollering them in conversation is not socially okay - so they know they can do it to you and act upset about your “bad manners” if you try to shut them up.
- They will do their best to make sure their approval is more important to you than the approval of anyone else, or than reason or facts. This part is very hard for most people of modest means, but once they’ve got a big company to pay people through, or half a billion dollars of Daddy’s money to burn, and no compunctions about using that to manipulate people, they are off to the races. The rewards for your slavish good behavior come further and further apart, but never so far apart that you’ll lose the ambition for the next one.
- And once they rope you into something illegal, demeaning, stupid, or all three, you’re really fucked. Because they’ll use that to bind you ever more tightly to them.
