1. Is this indictable?

Otherwise it's all background noise.

9. Depends on where the cash came from.

The legal implication all along was that it could be campaign funds.

2. Trump must be healthier than he appears...

How much stress can a 72 year old cheeseburger eating lard ass take?

His every waking thought must be about the deep shit in which he's drowning... Anxiety takes its toll. Certainly not much president'n gett'n done.

4. I wonder how Melania ia taking this? just wondering.

edit to add.

I really do not care. I gave up having any empathy for her 9yes I had some), when she wore that I do not Care jacket to the border to supposedly help the caged kids. Then, she had the audacity to put it on and wear it on her trip back.

6. and today, to me it looked like the orange blob left the WH by himself......

his wife was not with him flying to New Jersey. SHE’s gonna be out of his life very, very, soon. JMHO.

7. thanks for the information. I have been buzy most of day and away from the news.

10. She's done that several times already, she doesn't stay mad very long

8. I wonder, too... But, I'm with you... She deserves him. n/t

14. Same here, riversedge

That jacket was the last straw for me.

And oddly, the comment that her husband has been in Putin's pocket for about 15 years made me look at Barron's age (13 1/2) and wonder what her role really is. Russia seems to have a pattern of deploying their honey-traps all the way up to the wife level.

Just because she is visibly miserable and maybe abused, doesn't mean she also can't be on the job for the biggest mobster on the planet.

16. Ivana was allowed to leave the Soviet sector

Supposedly to ski competitively.
Hmm.
Ask other athletes of that era how easy it was for them to come to the west.

Not very.

15. Have you noticed she is always wearing long sleeves now?

Drape-cape over her arms when meeting Theresa May.
Long=sleeves over leggings when arriving Helsinki
Coatdress when meeting Finnish prime minister.

In one of the hottest summers in Europe.

So what do you think she's hiding?
Bruises?
Razor marks?

11. He's narcissistic. Probably thinks...

...he'll get away with it.

He's ran from his failures in the past, so, just as a criminal who gets sloppy because he's always gotten away with it. But then gets caught.

[mythology]

17. Ignorance is bliss

He's too stupid to be stressed.

3. Trump has a 1970s crime film/TV show understanding of how the world works.

Cohen would have attracted law enforcement attention FASTER by trying to make the payment in cash.

5. Bear in mind that this ISN'T CRIMINAL...

unless restructuring occurred (see Spitzer, Eliot). His only interest was avoiding publicity.

12. Frank Zappa had a song about this very kind of thing.

13. He probably was paying her rent and other expenses
