The New York Times and a third rate reporter named Maggie Habberman, known as a Crooked H flunkie who I don’t speak to and have nothing to do with, are going out of their way to destroy Michael Cohen and his relationship with me in the hope that he will “flip.” They use....
non-existent “sources” and a drunk/drugged up loser who hates Michael, a fine person with a wonderful family. Michael is a businessman for his own account/lawyer who I have always liked & respected. Most people will flip if the Government lets them out of trouble, even if....
it means lying or making up stories. Sorry, I don’t see Michael doing that despite the horrible Witch Hunt and the dishonest media!

1. What is this obsession with hunting witches?

[JDC]

2. His presumption of guilt is telling.

Trying to hedge the forthcoming truth as a lie, just in case is, is typical.

Does anyone ever ask him what's to "flip" over/about?

It's gonna go from bad to worse very soon.

3. If you've done nothing wrong, there's no need to flip

God is he stupid

[mcar]

4. Yeah, these are more insane than usual

[Trust Buster]

5. Intentional, not unhinged. A pre-emptive strike.

By lavishing praise on his buddy Cohen, he is publicly pleading with him not to flip. To claim that if his good buddy flips, the feds will force Cohen to lie about him is setting up a narrative.

6. Yeah I don't see anything crazy about these tweets at all....these tweets are quite

purposeful and also quite fucking obvious.

[oberliner]

7. Who is the "drunk/drugged up loser" ?

[Kirk Lover]

8. I'm guessing Roger Stone...since he recently said RUMP berates Cohen etc etc etc...

right?

[oberliner]

11. So they aren't friends? (Trump and Stone, I mean)

[Kirk Lover]

12. I think they are an on again off again type of item....but I really don't know since they are a

pack of liars. I need to read the Haberman story he's talking about - who did she use in that story. I need coffee.

For fucks sake...why in the world is he bringing this shit up first thing in the morning ...the
lack OF SELF PRESERVATION that is being displayed is SHOCKING.

17. Stone is a fair weather friend

I believe he was neck deep in getting many Republicans elected starting with Nixon and including Reagan/Bush, but then he wrote that book about Jeb... I read he is now working on a downfall of Trump book even though he helped get him where he is

19. No--Sam Nunberg, who was also quoted in the article about Trump's abuse of Cohen. nt

13. Nunberg

9. 1. Maggie H is someone he knows well (and just won a Pulitzer)

2. He references a "drunk/drugged up loser" - who is that?
3. He calls Cohen "a businessman for his own account/lawyer" - what does that mean?
4. He says "most people will flip" - but that's only if they are guilty of something (and can provide info of another's crimes)

[tblue37]

20. Nunberg. nt

[PatSeg]

10. Good point

He is often more strategic than he appears, but there is still is a bit of crazy in there.

[Wounded Bear]

16. Crazy like a fox...

He's used shit like this to manipulate the press and public opinion for years upon years.

It works for his supporters.

[C_U_L8R]

14. He's going for a full-on "Vinnie the Chin" defense

Next thing you know, he'll be wandering the White House lawn in his bathrobe.

[Abu Pepe]

15. He is scared shitless. nt

18. *More* unhinged ever since Hope HICKS left?!1 While she was supposedly keeping him less unhinged,

she has now been reported to have been the one writing the most vicious of his tweets. As for HABERMAN, I've never gotten how he repeatedly claims he detests her and doesn't give her access, while she has been shoveling out interview after interview with him, so is it "John BARRON" who is talking to her?!1

21. "Most people will flip..." Ha ha. He knows the game is up.
