Democrats Try To Nail Trump For Hush Money, But Obama Is The One Panicking

As the Democrats threaten President Donald Trump with bringing an indictment against him for the payoffs his former attorney Micheal Cohen made to Stormy Daniels and Playmate Karen McDougal, Barack Obama is panicking.

Why? Well, the former president was caught offering Jeremiah Wright, the infamous pastor who proclaimed “God damn America,” $150K in hush money. Now, it’s coming back to haunt him. You don’t want to miss this.

The Democrats and their cohorts in the mainstream media are scrambling to pin anything on President Trump. Since the Special Counsel struck out in trying to find any Russian collusion, they have moved on, going to ridiculous measures to decry Trump must be indicted. 

“[Robert] Mueller is camouflaging this defect [inability to prove Russian collusion] in his investigation by inducing people in the Trump campaign orbit to plead guilty to various false-statements charges,” Former Federal Prosecutor Andy McCarthy explained.

“The anti-Trump press then reports that (a) Mueller is investigating Trump–Russia collusion, (b) many Trump-campaign figures have been convicted, and (c) many Russians have been charged. No mention is made of the inconvenient facts that the Trump associates’ guilty pleas have nothing to do with Russia’s interference in the election and that the charges against Russians have nothing to do with the Trump campaign,” adds McCarthy. 

But, since Mueller can’t indict Trump on Russian collusion, he is now going after him for campaign finance violations. The Special Counsel is claiming the Michael Cohen payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal were hush money payments made specifically to stop them from speaking out during the campaign. 

The problem is that Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal were already on the record speaking out about their alleged relationships with Trump. And, this brings us to why Barack Obama must be panicking. 

Back in 2008, during the presidential primaries, the Obama campaign decided they needed to silence the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Unlike Daniels and McDougal, Wright hadn’t spoken out about his relationship with the then-presidential candidate. 

“When sermons of Obama’s Chicago pastor, Jeremiah Wright, surfaced during the Iowa primaries, it threatened to derail Obama’s campaign. ABC aired one where Wright screamed, ‘God damn America!’ Edward Klein interviewed Wright, who told him Obama’s team tried to buy his silence,” reported the New York Post

“Man, the media ate me alive,” Wright told Klein. “After the media went ballistic on me, I received an e-mail offering me money not to preach at all until the November presidential election.”

Wright went on to describe how he received emails from a close Obama confidant named Dr. Eric Whitaker, the vice president of the University of Chicago Medical Center and a member of Obama’s very tight inner-circle. He also worked with Michelle Obama at the hospital. 

“Chicago politics is one hand feeds the other, as you know. And Eric Whitaker, a very close friend of the Obamas, sent an email to a member of the church saying that the Rev. Wright could get $150,000 if he would shut up and not criticize Obama anymore,” Klein said.

When Wright refused, Barack went to see Wright secretly and allegedly offered the money directly.  “Then, after Rev. Wright said, ‘no thank you,’ Obama himself paid a personal call on the Rev. Wright,” Klein said. The face-to-face meeting took place in March 2008, 10 days after Obama’s famous “race speech” took place.

“Now we know that this is true, not only because the Rev. Wright told me so, but because the Secret Service logs logged in this meeting. So we have confirmation that it actually took place,” Klein said.

The funny thing is, no one ever investigated if or from whom Rev. Wright got a payoff. But, now, we are supposed to indict President Trump for payoffs, which cannot be proven but allegedly helped his 2016 campaign directly?

“I never directed Michael Cohen to break the law. He was a lawyer and he is supposed to know the law,” Trump said. “It is called ‘advice of counsel,’ and a lawyer has great liability if a mistake is made. That is why they get paid.”

Breitbart reports, “But Trump argued that the case did not apply to campaign finance laws, and argued that it was not criminal, despite prosecutors charging Cohen.”

“Cohen was guilty on many charges unrelated to me, but he plead to two campaign charges which were not criminal and of which he probably was not guilty even on a civil basis,” Trump wrote.

If we really want to find campaign finance violations, we need to look no further than Obama, who was found guilty of it back in 2013. Politico reported, “President Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign was fined $375,000 by the Federal Election Commission for campaign reporting violations — one of the largest fees ever levied against a presidential campaign.” 

And, what about Hillary Clinton paying $12.4 million dollars to her law firm, Perkins Coie, to pay Fusion GPS for the salacious Trump-Russia dirty dossier? The New York Times even had to admit that Hillary indeed paid for that opposition research, in an article titled, “Clinton Campaign & Democratic Party Help Pay For Russia Trump Dossier.”

Well, that is a campaign expenditure, is it not? Yet, Hillary Clinton never disclosed that payment, hoping to keep it secret that she was involved in the Spy-gate scandal at all. So, why isn’t Hillary Clinton getting indicted for failing to disclose that? 

You see the double standard. This Special Counsel is a fishing expedition looking for a crime. “Show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime,” is a famous quote by Russian Dictator Josef Stalin’s death squad commander. That’s what this Robert Mueller investigation has become. It’s time to alert all Americans to the truth. We can’t allow these ruthless rats to destroy our president. We have faith that, in the end, they will all be exposed as traitors to the United States of America.
