    Testifying under oath before a House committee, Cohen says he heard Trump say that black people “would never vote for him because they were too stupid.”

    Cohen says that when he and Trump were driving through a “struggling neighborhood” in Chicago, Trump said that “only black people could live that way.”

    Trump has denied charges of racism before, and has said, “I’ve never used racist remarks.”

    For more than a decade, Cohen was a key power player in the Trump Organization and a fixture in Trump’s political life.

    Cohen is set to begin a three-year prison sentence in May after pleading guilty to lying to Congress in 2017 and committing campaign finance violations while he was working for Trump.

    Here comes the MSM to tell us that lying under oath, for which he is already convicted, could not have happened here.

    Unless he has a recording, it’s not verifiable. I believe him but it’s not verifiable or conclusive.

    We must feel some rachmonos for Cohen, as he has to report to prison in two months, and remain there for three years. How would any of you experts like to be in his shoes. If you don’t have rachmonos for a fellow Jew, just before Pesach, then something is wrong with you.

    Will he put a yarmalka on his head when he goes to Otisville? Will he get the first aliyah? Will he do birchas cohanim on Pesach?
    So many unanswered questions!
