I don’t get the sense that Cohen and Hannity have thought this all the way through — the impact of their positions on the attorney-client privilege, and how they may be waiving and/or undermining privilege.

They need to be playing chess. They’re playing Hungry Hungry Hippos.

It’s important to remember how this is different from Watergate. One of the big ways is that regardless of a generally similar level of immorality, Richard Nixon and his evil minions^™ were not stupid people who unmoored from reality, and Donald Trump and his evil minions^™ are stupid people who are unmoored reality.

Popehat owes me a screen wipe for the “Hungry Hungry Hippos” comment.
