re: #23 Targetpractice

So basically, Trump’s lawyers in the hush money case are going to argue that their client cannot be trusted when signing legal documents. That you could put a document in front of him certifying that he’s a eunuch who can only get sexually aroused by being spanked and he’ll sign it without ever asking what it actually says. Because really, few things instill confidence in banks and loan providers as much as learning that the guy they’re giving money to will sign anything so long as you slip his lawyer enough money under the table not to explain the document to him in detail.

They’re down to the “incompetent or criminal” decision stage. So Trump will claim that he is incompetent and simply signs things put in front of him by lawyers. My guess is they are trying to get it into a “one said this and the other said that” about whatever Cohen might have said about the legality of the decision. Then again, by that time in the relationship I doubt they had that sort of discussion about such things since Cohen had already been acting as a fixer for a while.
