According to recent court filings, President Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen told federal prosecutors that he was directed by the then-candidate to pay hush money to two women to help sway the outcome of the 2016 election. Even though Cohen admitted he had previously lied under oath to Congress, ABC and NBC spent part of their Sunday morning news programs suggesting it was all over for the Trump administration.
“We now have a president of the United States who has essentially been implicated in a felony by his own Justice Department,” boasted ABC anchor Dan Harris to chief global affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz during Good Morning America. “Democrats are reportedly talking about impeachment. Does that seem likely to happen to you, impeachment?”
Raddatz noted that Democrats had been trying to stay away from the idea of impeaching Trump right away, but now it seemed more likely than ever:
But The New York Times today quotes the incoming chairman of the House Judiciary Committee saying – Jerry Nadler saying, “if the campaign finance case as laid out by prosecutors is true, Mr. Trump would be likely to meet the criteria for an impeachable offense.” And he said he would “instruct his committee to investigate” when he takes over in January. So, I do think things have moved since last Friday.
“As we have said, the President is moving into a perilous period,” Harris touted.
