Is Michael Cohen Contrite Or Just Pretending For The Cameras?

The noose is tightening around you know who.

His former security adviser, Michael Flynn, is accused of lying about his interactions with Russia during the 2016 election. His former lawyer, Michael Cohen was this week found guilty of lying to Congress about the payments that were made to two women who his boss has affairs with. As of next March, he will be calling prison home for the next three years.

After his conviction, he sat down with ABC News and sounded contrite. The question is, does he truly feel remorseful or is he pretending for the cameras?

Honestly, I don’t know if I believe him. While I understand how easy it is to get involved with work and those whom you work with, there has to be a clear moral and legal boundary somewhere. Either he didn’t see that moral and legal boundary or he chose to ignore it. The first one might be excusable, based on certain factors. The second one, there is no excuse, especially for someone who by trade knows the law inside and out.

Back in April, the podcast Trump, Inc. dedicated an entire episode to Michael Cohen. To make a long story short, his business dealings before working for you know who were not exactly on the up and up.

It has been said that karma is b*tch. One way or another, one is punished for one’s misdeeds. Going to prison is the least that Michael Cohen can do for the crimes he committed against the American people.
