White House Downplays Manafort, Cohen Bombshells: The Medias Trying to Create a Story Where There Isnt Oneby Tamar Auber | Dec 7th, 2018, 7:30 pm
On Friday, the White House responded to the back-to-back bombshells by claiming that neither the Manafort memo nor the Cohen memo say much about Trump and implying the media was trying to create a story about nothing.
In the Paul Manafort memo, Special Counsel Robert Mueller wrote this about the former Trump Campaign chair: In his interviews with the Special Counsels Office and the FBI, Manafort told multiple discernible lies these were not instances of mere memory lapses.
In response, the White House issued a statement claiming The governments filing in Mr. Manaforts case says absolutely nothing about the President.
The statement continues on: Once again, the media is trying to create a story where there isnt one.
As for the Michael Cohen sentencing memo where damning statements were made about Individual -1 aka Donald Trump Sanders said: The governments filings in Mr. Cohens case tell us nothing of value that wasnt already known. Mr. Cohen has repeatedly lied and as the prosecution has pointed out to the court, Mr. Cohen is no hero.

(11,885 posts)...repeatedly lie to the American people about it all, why does he claim they are such great people until they are exposed then he claims he hardly knows them or attacks them, why does he claim the opposite of the truth over and over again, and why does he attack Muller and this investigation if he's so innocent. Because he's not innocent, and a career liar , and a career corrupt criminal , which is also why he's so comfortable when he has other corrupt criminals surround him, like Putin, the Prince and others in his administration like himself.
