knapplc Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 So, just before Cohen is going to testify, this brilliant gentleman steps up to the plate with this gem: Screen shot, because I'm guessing this will be taken down soon: In case you're not familiar with Mr. Gaetz: Matthew Louis Gaetz II is the U.S. Representative for Florida's 1st congressional district since 2017, where he serves on the Budget, Armed Services, and Judiciary Committees. He is a member of the Republican Party. 1 Link to comment

I never would have thought I would live in America where threats and coercion are so blatantly out in the open from our elected officials. What a time to be alive.... This also really makes me believe Cohen is going to say something Republicans are NOT going to like. 1 Link to comment

I think so, too. "He has the receipts" is a phrase I've heard a couple of times. Cohen has already lied to Congress, so his testimony is going to be suspect. Nobody's going to put him on the stand unless they have some way to verify the info he's going to provide. Link to comment

This is the issue. He needs actual evidence and not just his word. Link to comment
NM11046 Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Gaetz needs to be censored immediately and taken off all committee's. I don't know for sure - is he part of the group that gets to question Cohen this week? If so, that makes this all the more offensive imo. 1 Link to comment

Yeah, it shows criminal activity on the part of Trump while in office, but we already knew or had reason to strongly suspect that this was the case vis a vis Stormy Daniels. This won't move the needle on polls. This isn't Trump shooting a guy on 5th Avenue. 3 Link to comment

I can't get over how insane it is that Trump is leading the Christian base and they continue to stand behind him with all that is known. It is incomprehensible. Link to comment
