This is jaw-dropping. Michael Cohen, Trump’s longtime attorney and fixer, will testify that the president knew ahead of time about the release of hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee. Here’s an excerpt from his prepared testimony:
“A lot of people have asked me about whether Mr. Trump knew about the release of the hacked Democratic National Committee emails ahead of time. The answer is yes. As I earlier stated, Mr. Trump knew from Roger Stone in advance about the WikiLeaks drop of emails. In July 2016, days before the Democratic convention, I was in Mr. Trump’s office when his secretary announced that Roger Stone was on the phone. Mr. Trump put Mr. Stone on the speakerphone. Mr. Stone told Mr. Trump that he had just gotten off the phone with Julian Assange and that Mr. Assange told Mr. Stone that, within a couple of days, there would be a massive dump of emails that would damage Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Mr. Trump responded by stating to the effect of “wouldn’t that be great.”
If Trump knew about the hack of the emails and failed to notify authorities, it would constitute another impeachable offense. Buckle up, folks.
I can't wait until this idiot is out of office! He's been a complete disgrace to American democracy!
