"The plea represented a pivotal moment in the investigation into the president, and the scene in the Manhattan courtroom was striking. Mr. Cohen, a longtime lawyer for Mr. Trump — and loyal confidant — described in plain-spoken language how Mr. Trump worked with him to cover up a potential sex scandal that Mr. Trump feared would endanger his rising candidacy.

Mr. Cohen also pleaded guilty to multiple counts of tax evasion and a single count of bank fraud, capping a monthslong investigation by Manhattan federal prosecutors who examined his personal business dealings and his role in helping to arrange the financial deals with women connected to Mr. Trump."

That should be the end of Trump's political legitimacy.

Immediately the prosecutors tie Trump in knots with investigations.
The problem will be to remove Vicepresident Pence.
Ryan will not survive this congress.  He is not running for reelection.

Impeach Trump when the succession is sane.
The cry was "Agnew First!".

He says things they want to hear.
