Michael Cohen sentenced to 3 years in prison

quote [ Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen has been sentenced to three years in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release, in a sentencing hearing in federal court in Manhattan in which Cohen claimed he acted out of "blind loyalty" to President Trump. ]

@HillaryClinton when you go to prison for defrauding America and perjury, your room and board will be free!” - Cohen

Wow - talk about a tweet that did not age very well.

Cohen attorney Lanny Davis said in a statement that Cohen "continues to tell the truth about Donald Trump's misconduct" — and looks forward to sharing more publicly.

"At the appropriate time, after Mr. Mueller completes his investigation and issues his final report, I look forward to assisting Michael to state publicly all he knows about Mr. Trump – and that includes any appropriate congressional committee interested in the search for truth and the difference between facts and lies," Davis said in a statement to CBS News. "Mr. Trump's repeated lies cannot contradict stubborn facts."

Three years for a "smorgasbord" of fraudulent crimes. Cohen did not flip fully to avoid exposure of other crimes which may yet be exposed?

My reading on this is that he's getting 3 years precisely for the stuff he didn't disclose. Otherwise he'd be getting off like Flynn.

Shall we put a guess on how long Cohen will survive in prison?

A week, a month..........or maybe a few days?

I don't see why Trump would give him a pardon, since Cohen has tried to throw Trump under the bus.

Russian spy Maria Butina’s boyfriend now claims he has “been involved in securing a VERY private line of communication between the Kremlin and key Republican Party leaders through, of all conduits, the NRA."

Another tie between the Putin crime syndicate and the GOP crime syndicate, working together to undermine democracy and bring chaos to US politics.

I have seen insinuations that Mitch McConnell has something to do with this...take that with a huge grain of salt but keep an eye on this story for his name to pop up.

Everyone receiving NRA money and taking NRA instruction had something to do with this organized crime.

3 Years is enough time to write that tell-all book about team orange.

It is not just Cohen saying it now.

National Enquirer publisher dodges charges for suppressing story to help Trump

This was about the election.
