A shell company that Michael D.

My thoughts on this news

Looks like more and more info is being made available about the shady dealings of Trump and his Lawyer Cohen. According to this info Cohen owns a shell company called Essential Consultants L.L.C. which accepted payments from many different people and corporations. One of the payments came from a corporation that is owned by a Russian Oligarch. This is how corruption works and how the wealthy and their corporations buy politicians, they claim these payments were consulting fees. I guess Cohen must be a consulting genius. Just another episode of Trump's reality show which proves the US government is owned and bought by the wealthy...

Sort:  

Shows how huge sums of money are floating around behind the scenes for purposes that may be nothing to do with what The Public would want its government/business doing.

Yes, corporate America uses corruption to run the government...
