A weather report can make Trump go crazy because it's not about HIM.

Trump in legal jeopardy??
Walter: Both Manaford and Cohen were found guilty of things. Also Hillary has not been found guilty of anything.

The end of Donald Trump
After the historic blows he suffered today, any rational President of the United States would be huddled with his legal advisers and trying to figure out how to negotiate his resignation. As we’ve seen time and again, Donald Trump is anything but rational. His presidency died today, and the rest of his life effectively went down the tubes as well. But what will Trump do now?
This is now guaranteed to end very badly for Donald Trump. It’s not just that Paul Manafort’s conviction hands all the leverage to Special Counsel Robert Mueller. It’s that Michael Cohen went into court and formally named Trump as his unindicted co-conspirator in a felony violation of federal election law. It’s all downhill for Trump from here, and it’s a rather steep downhill slope. A day like today destabilizes a president to the point that he can’t function, the government can’t function, and the nation can’t function until he’s gone. And after today broke the dam, Trump is only going to have more and more days like this.
So what is Donald Trump’s endgame? He never did try to fire Robert Mueller, and after today’s events, Trump would have a ten times harder time trying to pull it off. Mueller’s legal standing is bolstered now that he’s scored his first set of felony convictions against a Trump-Russia target. And now that Trump is officially a co-conspirator in all this, Trump would be exposing himself to a whole new level of obstruction charges if he were to try firing Mueller.
Trump never has tried to pardon anyone in the Trump-Russia scandal either. Michael Cohen clearly concluded that it was never going to happen when he decided to cut his plea deal. We’ll see if Paul Manafort is under the delusion that a pardon is coming, but as we predicted, Trump distanced himself from Manafort tonight instead of talking about pardoning him. And because Trump is now a co-conspirator, he’d have a much harder convincing the courts to let any attempted pardons stand.

It is all over but the exploding Trumpite's heads.

a few more shoes have to drop ........but it is getting very interesting. (and history making)
FIVE people now from Trump's circle have been convicted of crimes. What a cesspool Trump surrounds himself with.
They have evidence of that payment Trump "directed" Cohen to make.
How is that different from ANY politician? Anyone who thinks differently is very naïve!
And that payment is legal cuz it came from private funds not campaign funds, ask Bill Clinton cuz he knows all about hush money.
Every candidate in history broke this rule, thus why the rule was made in the first place, including the great Bama
Yeah The Don is going down /sarcasm off
The Don should never have held that office in the first place.
Trump is certainly helping the George W. Bush legacy.
