No damned ethical court lawyer is going to put a finger pointer in front of a judge and have it put on record solely based on their word alone. There is evidence to back up what Cohen said, all be it sealed right now, otherwise they wouldn't have done that.
Its my understanding that he cant be charged while still president and would have to be impeached first.
So what she said is entirely meaningless, BUT will play to the rubes who still support him.
My understanding (and I could be wrong) is that this is more of a tradition and not a law. Technically, lawfully, he CAN be charged/indicted. That being said, even with a house full of Dems that seems unlikely. For one thing, they will be thinking, is Pence actually better? I mean, yes, Pence isn't batshit insane and/or senile. He won't be tweeting insults at Kim Il Jong II at 3am, but he's still a monster. He's just got a better disguise than the orange clown. Dems may wish to put Trump through some long embarrassing impeachment proceedings, but they probably want him to stay "in charge" until the 2020 elections. Just my guess though.
