Chicken-Eating Democrat Tries To Mock Lewandowski During Kabuki Impeachment Inquiry

Corey Lewandowski’s House Judiciary Committee hearing was an explosive spectacle from the moment it began, and Congressman Steve Cohen (D-TN) kept the show going by using his time to ridicule the former Trump campaign manager.

Lewandowski argued that “the president never asked me to do anything illegal” as he fielded questions about his actions documented in Robert Mueller’s report. After Cohen scoffed at Lewandowski, calling him a “secretary” and an “enforcer” for President Donald Trump, he concluded that “either you were willing to break the law for politics and Mr. Trump, or you’re some kind of a Forrest Gump relating to corruption.”

Eventually, Cohen arrived at the heart of the Mueller report by noting that Trump asked Lewandowski to take a message to Jeff Sessions, ordering the former attorney general to limit the special counsel’s scope. This led to Cohen mocking Trump’s “loyal soldier” for not following through on the president’s request. He went on to ask if Lewandowski bailed on the task because he was afraid of going to prison.
