Coverage of national and international news, including breaking stories. Coverage of national and international news, including breaking stories. Allegedly had affairs with, in order to conceal that information from the public in connection with the election. What i think a critical difference is, is the timing of this and how closely related it to the election and concealment of bad information. That differentiates it from the obama case. If i could just go back to the tweets for one second, hallie. Please. I prosecuted Organized Crime Cases in the Southern District of new york. I supervised that unit. The way that donald trump is talking, and i cant help but think about this, is the way mob bosses talk. When you are loyal, youre a standup guy, and you take the rap in the mob world, you get benefits. If you break and you cooperate, youre a rat, which is another term he used.
