    Interesting to see Davis putting pressure on Trump and Giuliani with that tweet. Avenatti has already proven you can shake Trump and Giuliani by generating headlines by calling them out publicly on their lies. Now we prep some popcorn for the team Trump response followed by the usual Trump twitter tantrum.

    Anyone care to spin selling access to our chief exec? How much swampier can it get?

    ... and if there is a tape of this conversation, I wonder what other tapes of other conversations exist. Here's a live video of trump's meeting when he found out...

    If bumbling ass Michael Cohen has secretly recorded dirt on Trump, I can only imagine what other compromising stuff is floating out there with organizations that have a far more sophisticated intelligence apparatus.

    The Trumps are everything Republicans of the last 30 years have claimed the Clintons were, only worse.

    Can't make this sh*t up.

    I added something for you. Trump's actions of late involving Putin are pretty mind-blowing. Except I'm not entirely surprised.

    CNN reports that there are more, of course, more Cohen tapes, including conversations with Trump. A few of choice snippets:

    https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/20/poli...nald-trump-playboy-model-recording/index.html
    .
    .
    .
    Cohen has other recordings of the President in his records that were seized by the FBI, said both a source with knowledge of Cohen's tapes and Giuliani, who described the other recordings as mundane discussions. Another source with knowledge of the tape, however, said the conversation is not as Giuliani described and is not good for the President, though the source would not elaborate.
    .
    .
    .
    Giuliani said Trump had no idea he was being recorded during the McDougal discussion, which took place in the then-candidate's office at Trump Tower in September 2016. When informed about the recording, Trump said, "I can't believe Michael would do this to me," a source familiar with the tapes told CNN.
    .
    .
    .
    There are other tapes of Cohen and other "powerful" individuals that the FBI seized beyond the President that could be embarrassing for the people on the tape and for Cohen, according to a source familiar with the tapes. The source said the people are of "significance and consequence."
    The source familiar with the Cohen tapes said there was nothing illegal about the discussion, but acknowledged there could be ethical issues about Cohen recording his own client.

    Giuilani has known about the tapes for several days, and has reviewed the transcripts, he told CNN.

    In recent weeks, documents and other evidence obtained during April's searches has begun to be turned over to the government as a former federal judge, Cohen's lawyers and lawyers representing Trump and the Trump Organization have moved through the process of determining which of the millions of items are subject to attorney-client privilege. The former judge, Barbara Jones, however, so far has found the vast majority of the items reviewed to be not privileged, according to court filings, indicating that very little of what Cohen did in recent years qualified as legal work.
    In recent weeks, Cohen's public remarks have raised suspicions that he could be willing to seek a cooperation agreement with the US attorney's office that would require him to provide information federal prosecutors could use against other individuals they are examining. It's not clear, however, whether the US attorney's office would be willing to grant Cohen such an deal.

    On Cohen selling access to the White House that was his scam. He told people they could meet Trump for pay but it was a scam

    This is old news
