After Cohen pleaded guilty liberals and their attack dog media rushed to manipulate American opinion by pushing the 'Fake News' idea that Cohen's claim makes the President an 'Un-Indicted Co-Conspirator'.
"Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz told Fox News Wednesday that claims by Senate Democrats and liberal pundits that President Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen’s guilty plea makes the president an “unindicted co-conspirator” are “just wrong as a matter of basic criminal law.”
...but, hey, I am sure the sheep bought it. From the look of the snowflake postings on this board, they did.
“The law is clear that a president may contribute to his own campaign so if the President had paid $280,000 to these two women even if he had done so in order to help his campaign,” Dershowitz explained to Fox’s Bret Baier, “that would be no problem, that’s legal, and if Cohen himself made the contribution that would be unlawful because he has a limit of $5,200 so the complicated issue is what if Trump told him to do it as Cohen says?”
Dershowitz explained that, in that case, it would still not be a crime as Cohen would be acting as the president’s representative."
“The campaign contribution would be lawful as long as the president ultimately paid for it,” he said, “so the prosecutor’s in a little bit of a Catch-22. If he believes Cohen that the president directed him to do it then it’s not a crime at all if he doesn’t believe Cohen then Cohen has committed a crime but not the president.”
Once again, the hopes and dreams of the witch hunters and hate-driven snowflakes are dashed on the rocks..... They should not despair, though - their existence and all their effort have a purpose:
Dershowitz: Saying Cohen's Plea Makes Trump an 'Unindicted Co-Conspirator' Is 'Just Wrong'
