Only in the District of Criminals!

Michael Cohen, the disgraced and now felonious and once-attorney for Donald Trump is being defended by attorney and Washington D.C. swamp rat Lanny Davis. And a smarmier pair you'll be hard-pressed to find.
Davis, you may recall, is a long-time grifter and toady of Bill and Hillary Clinton -- or, as the boss described him, a “Clinton ‘fixer,’ spokespuppet and bagman.” He also happens to be a registered foreign agent for Dmytro Firtash, a pro-Russia Ukrainian oligarch wanted by the U.S. government. But there's nothing to see there, I'm sure.
Although cable news was still in its infancy when Bill Clinton was shucking and jiving us about his dalliances with Monica and other women he'd #MeToo'd, Davis managed to help the CNN’s of the world fill their slow news days by telling us that Clinton was a great guy, a great president, was doing great things and, because he was so great, we should all ignore that he was a horndog serial rapist and sexual harasser and that what a president does in his personal life should stay personal and has no bearing on how he does his job... even if they involved cigars and fellatio under the Resolute Desk.
He spent untold hours in front of the cameras telling us that Bill's accusers were trailer trash — or worse — and just out for a buck or fame and fortune, and any notion that folks like Betty Currie or Hillary or other dark and shady characters were intimidating and threatening (subtly and overtly) potential "bimbos" from Clinton's sexual predatory past from "erupting" was preposterous, scandalous and part of the "vast right-wing conspiracy."
Now Davis is telling us that Trump's bonking of porn actresses and swimsuit models and then paying them off to keep them quiet is the most dangerous thing our "democracy" has ever seen.
I guess Davis figures leaving dead animal carcasses, voice-scrambled phone call threats and slashed tires as messages is far superior to payoffs.
It just goes to show that if it weren't for double standards in the District of Criminals there'd be no standards at all. Sadly, same goes for the politician-worshiping hoi polloi.
