"I think he just assumed" -- Trump lawyer Joe Tacopina on Meet the Press (!) tries to explain Trump's false claim about getting arrested last week
Tacopina refuses to answer Chuck Todd's straightforward questions about whether he stands by Trump's comments that Alvin Bragg is a "SOROS BACKED ANIMAL" and worse
CHUCK TODD: You keep saying it was personal funds. That was not what Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to. These were funds repaid by the Trump Org TACOPINA: That's personal TODD: So everything w/ the Trump Org is Trump's personal funds? You realize the door you're opening there?
TACOPINA: What was he supposed to put in his personal ledger? "Payment for hush money to quiet an affair that I claim I never had so my family doesn't get embarrassed"? CHUCK TODD: How about the truth? Shouldn't it be the truth?
@atrupar Except for the fact that Trump said it HAPPENED. Trump jumps between: It didn’t happen. It did happen, but the statute of limitations is up so I can’t be punished for it. Everyone pays off a porn star for an affair, then lies on business forms, it is common business practice.
@Phoenix_Ranger2 @atrupar So now something did happen.. ? But it was a long time ago..? .. I’m going to need a neck brace from all of this whiplash ..
