I’m not a political scientist but IMHO, if Roy Cohn had lived long enough to be a Trump advisor, Trump wouldn’t be in this mess. I speculate that Cohn would have counseled the Mango Mussolini not to piss off so many Americans leading up to the 2020 election. #2020Election #WhereIsMyRoyCohn? #RoyCohn

@ppatel

And #roycohn went on to mentor #trump later on. Go figure!

🎬 #AngelsInAmerica (2003) | #AlPacino's #RoyCohn-ish atty in his doctor's office denies being a cock-fan and having #AIDS. He threatens Doc with ruin if he doesn't go along. The scene captures ReganAmerica's response to #AIDS perfectly.

Denial, omertà, threats.

That intolerance killed my friend Stan. He was a Capitol Hill senior staffer, a Democrat, but felt he had to hide his diagnosis and disease. That stress and pressure killed his immune system, so him.

Prejudice kills in unseen ways.

Donald Trump loves revenge. Who says so? He does.

Trump was mentored by Roy Cohn who taught:
“He made his legal and political career,” in the estimation of the British historian Eric Hobsbawm, “in a milieu where money and power override rules and law—indeed where the ability to get, and get away with, what lesser citizens cannot, is what proves membership of an elite.”
Michael Kruse is a senior staff writer for POLITICO.

Matthew Hays: The Reagan administration labeled a film ("If You Love This Planet") ‘propaganda.’ It won an #Oscar.

Meatball Ron is in the same sociopathic legal league as Roy Cohn was.

Fully aware of the law, but fully disinterested.

I thought that @Acyn was posting an old video of #TuckerCarlson spreading #TheBigLie last night, but apparently #Tuckems is using the #RoyCohn and #RogerStone rule of scandal consequence avoidance so he's double downing on the #StopTheSteal conspiracy theory weaponization to end democracy.

While we are at it
Don’t forget DJT first came to attention in the 70s when done for racial discrimination in housing. His lawyer in those years was Roy Cohn, a notorious skidmark.
If you are too young or poorly educated in US history, look up Wisconsin paragon of republican virtue, Joe McCarthy
#Trump #RoyCohn #JoeMcCarthy

The #Republican House is going to throw up every road block they can muster in the investigation into anyone involved with #MAGA including those involved in the insurrection and the conspiracy prior to it. #Trump will in true form attack with anti-defamation suits along with the House charging that the FBI and the DOJ have been weaponized against poor innocent Donald and his minions who sought to undermine and destroy our democracy. We need to remember who tutored him, #RoyCohn his #Machiavelli.

Apropros of nothing, the NYT #RoyCohn epitaph

Donald #Trump’s #mentor the despicable #RoyCohn was ultimately brought down by #taxevasion. On top of #sedition I’m certain the same tax evasion charges will visit Trump. Can’t wait for the #perpwalk.

“Trump,” the late Wayne Barrett wrote in 1979, “is a user of other users”—a keen, foundational insight, true then and true now. And with the exception of his father, whose fortune made possible the life he’s lived, Trump used Cohn more than he used anybody.”

How can we for one moment consider this balding, bloated spawn of #FredTrump and #RoyCohn think he can get away with #insurrection at a minimum. #DonaldTrump must be tried, found guilty and imprisoned to send the message to the far right #conservatives that there are #boundaries and #consequences for crossing them.

While a referral has no legal significance, the roadmap puts great pressure on the #JusticeDepartment…
