This is Manny. He hasn’t seen your croissant. Not sure why you’re questioning him. 13/10 for the honest boy pic.twitter.com/1yMDweSH9K

Manny is not only a more plausible liar than Michael Cohen, he’s probably smarter.
W/r/t Michael Cohen, I keep thinking back to an intvw I did in the early days of the Trump admin w/ a venerable DC lobbyist, who said: "There's a lot of line-testing going on right now. Someone's going to be the first guy to run into the electric fence."

Michael Cohen, c’mon down!
Michael Cohen has put up his family’s Park Avenue apartment—valued at $9,000,000—as collateral for millions of dollars in loans to his troubled taxi business, Bloomberg reports.https://t.co/iJudlEWcSa

Let me put an even shaaaaarper point on it.
Michael Cohen just put up his apartment as collateral on a loan to save his taxi business.
For a guy who touched a lot of money, it sure doesn’t seem like he’s the guy who pocketed it.
That money went… somewhere. https://t.co/kdrK8oqO1r

Team Trump is just dumb enough to have kept up blatantly dirty ops under the false belief that Mueller’s investigation would never get that deep.
Trump’s over-confidence was no doubt strong enough to have led his whole team to keep on grifting even as Comey/Mueller ramped up.

The most delicious bit might be this:
Jared Kushner’s terrible advice opened this Pandora’s box… and Trump will remember that when the day comes when young Jared needs a lifeline.

Whether or not it's a crime and however you characterize it, the President's fixer getting half a million from Russian through a dummy entity AFTER THE RUSSIA INVESTIGATION HAS BEGUN is stupid in a way it would take a poet to capture. I cannot, as my daughter would say, even.

Don't get me wrong, having the president's bag man in that position is extremely on-brand.

As companies try to explain away their pay to play payments to Michael Cohen, it would be remiss of me not to mention that he was also the deputy finance chair for the RNC. It’s all connected.https://t.co/Nxj8Ppk50b

Just imagine what's going in to that Trump SuperPAC being run by Parscale

There's never been a better moment for a reminder that there's still a ONE MILLION DOLLAR DONATION to Trump's inauguration that's COMPLETELY ANONYMOUS https://t.co/1plMExmkIW
