Is Michael Cohen The Dumbest Lawyer In America? Maybe, Probably, Yes!

There are 1.3 million lawyers in America, but Michael Cohen may be the stupidest one of all. Forget about fingerprints – this guy proudly taped his business card to every piece of campaign finance fuckery he could get his hands on. He’s up to his neck in payoffs to pornstars, illicit agreements with the National Enquirer to bury Trump’s alleged affairs, and maybe the Access H
Assuming that the federales were entitled to a search warrant to go through Michael Cohen’s records pertaining to Trump, they should not be peeking at anything related to his other clients as that would tend to discourage a lawyer from representing Trump because he could lose his other clients.
Did you miss all the coverage about how he could not get any other lawyers than the dumbshit ones because he has such a bad rep for numerous reasons. The one most lawyer only care about are not getting paid. Sounds better when they say it is because he won’t follow their advice — you know because most lawyers really care about that.

Have a look. It’s funny as hell. Be sure not to miss Footnotes 4 and 5.

Trump and the republicans could save themselves and taxpayers a lot of money and simplify things greatly if they would just fire the lawyers. Then create a cabinet level position to handle payoffs, etc. for their mistresses, girlfriends, one night stands and the resulting offspring and/or abortions. It could be called “Office of Internal Affairs” or something. Maybe even it’s own dating site too, since the staffer that most were dating has resigned.
