Michael Cohen resigns from the RNC; criticizes trump immigrant child separation
Jun 20, 2018 16:52:12 #
ABC News has just reported:
In his resignation letter to Ronna McDaniel, the RNC chair, Cohen cited the ongoing special counsel investigation as one reason for his departure. ABC News has reviewed the email.
“This important role requires the full time attention and dedication of each member. Given the ongoing Mueller and SDNY investigations, that simply is impossible for me to do,” he wrote.
Cohen also criticized the administration's policy of separating migrant children from their parents at the southern border, the first time he’s distanced himself from the president.
"As the son of a Polish holocaust survivor, the images and sounds of this family separation policy is heart wrenching,” Cohen wrote. “While I strongly support measures that will secure our porous borders, children should never be used as bargaining chips."
WOW - - criticizing trump is not the way to get a pardon - - at least if trump pardons Michael Cohen at this point, it'll be because trump is trying to save his own backside...
Oh yeah, so pardon may still be possible, except that trump can't pardon a state conviction, so it may not do him any good to pardon a federal one either.
