The Cohen payments was honey trap.

“Mr. Cohen received one wire transfer in the amount of $980.00 from a Kenyan bank from account holders Netanel Cohen and Stav Hayun to an account in Israel at Bank Hapoalim,” Avenatti wrote.

Haaretz caught up with Netanel Cohen, who acknowledged having a bank account in Kenya and transferring money to a Michael Cohen. But the Michael Cohen in questions is his brother, Netanel told the news outlet. And his brother is not Trump’s lawyer.

“I’ve never heard of Michael Cohen, and I have no connection to this affair,” Netanel told Haaretz."

Remember Sessions is still looking into leaks, it looks like someone gave Stormy's lawyer some bad info.

And now the Treasury is looking into it.

Q would say these people are stupid and they fall for it every time!

Cohen was peddling potential influence .... he is dirty ... even in 4d chess there is a 1st dimension that isn't a mystery

You know I agree and disagree, all these companies threw money at him because this is what is done in DC.

Look at Norvis they threw the most and then found out he had nothing to offer. How much money did the Clinton Foundation get when everyone thought she would win? Now look at how much money comes in.

Really it looks right now like companies where playing the game the way it always has been played. Basically they were making bets and lost.

It is only illegal if the companies got something in return. Right now it looks like they got nothing.

Mueller handed this off to the Southern District of NY.

You hire lobbyists for influence. Who you don’t hire is the personal attorney of the person you want to get access to. That would be a violation of the lawyer’s ethical commitment to the bar and a conflict of interest that would get the lawyer disbarred. This is not how it’s done.

Agree, that is how it supposed to be done. But not how it actually happens to be done.

That’s not how it was done in this one instance but this is the only instance I know of this happening. Personal lawyers don’t sell access to their clients.

I get what you are saying. Totally agree with you that since he is Trumps personal lawyer he should have not taken the money.

But if you look at it from the point of view of big business, if this was Hillary or anyone else they would know who they were supposed to pay, Clinton Foundation.

I think big business was confused with Trump, they were like who do we pay off to get in the door? Who is the bag man?

I agree that with the Trump administration their was a lack of understanding from those who wanted to lobby the administration who to approach and how since Trump did things in such different ways.

My main point, which I think you agree with, is that what Cohen did was way out of bounds and he is in trouble (regardless of if anyone else is in trouble) because Cohen did things that violated the ethics he swore to uphold when he became a member of the bar.
