Lordy, there are tapes...

It is unknown whether Cohen taped conversations between himself and Trump. But two people familiar with Cohen’s practices said he recorded both business and political conversations. One associate said Trump knew of Cohen’s practice because the attorney would often play him recordings Cohen had made of his conversations with other top Trump advisers. 

“It was his standard practice to do it,” this person said.

Legal experts said Cohen’s taped conversations would be viewed by prosecutors as highly valuable.

“If you are looking for evidence, you can’t do any better than people talking on tape,” said Nick Akerman, a former Watergate prosecutor.

Cohen wanted his business calls on tape so he could use them later as leverage, one person said. He frequently noted that under New York law, only one party had to consent to the taping of a conversation, this person added.

the fact that anyone gives a sh*t who Trump f*cked back in the day is laughable, it really shows how desperate the left is with the Russian collusion angle running thin. 

Multiple countries are preparing missile strikes against Syria,  Russia is threatening to intervene---Wars have started from much less.

But never mind all that, holy sh*t, a billionaire playboy had consensual sex with a few sluts 10-15+ years ago!!!!1!

What does this have to do with “the left”?

Desperation where Trump is concerned has everything to do with the left.  RUSSIAN COLLUSION!!!! 

 As @halfmanhalfbronco pointed out to me, over the last year the left has gone from “Trump committed treason by conspiring with Russia” to “Trump banged a porn star, paid her to be quiet (because well she is a hooker and they’re paid for their silence) and lied about it”.

As has been explained dozens of times in this board and probably hundreds of times elsewhere, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ACT. Trumps lack of respect for his marriage is his and Melanias business. The crime here, if there is one, is the payoff. That 130K payment likely violated campaign finance law and that, like it or not, is a huge deal. 

Dudes sunk.

I understand that and If it violated campaign finance laws then Trump should be arrested. 

But the media hasn’t spun it that way.

It is going to be nearly impossible to prove that Trump knew about it, even if campaign finance laws were broken by his lawyer.  The fact Trump never signed the NDA might be what saves him.

The salaciousness of an affair will always drive interest with viewership, but it is important not to conflate that with the unprecedented surreal nature of dealing with a scandale du jour for fourteen months and counting.

In other words, the potential for prosecutable crime having to do with a violation of campaign finance law does not supplant the investigation into Russian collusion but rather is in addition to it. Think of it as a side of dirty Sanchez served to the American people to go along with the forced sodomy of watching La Rana Naranja 'deconstruct' our democracy one institution at a time.

As far as the listening to the tapes is concerned? I think I'll wait for someone to autotune that shit on Youtube.

You can’t arrest the president.
