Democrat Senator, Richard Blumenthal, is now convinced that President Trump committed many crimes and there is “enough evidence to convict” him, despite never being indicted in the Cohen hush-money probe, which was officially closed.
He is also calling on Congress to hold public hearings to help uncover any “lies” or “criminal wrongdoing” by the President and whether he or Attorney General Barr interfered in the investigation.
Blumenthal’s claims come as Trump’s legal team declared victory in the Cohen hush-money probe, after the Manhatten judge said the case has concluded. As a result, previously redacted documents related to the case were dumped, which Blumenthal must have analyzed.
The senator posted a statement on Twitter that reads, “There’s abundant evidence to convict Donald Trump of many of the crimes that Michael Cohen is now serving years in prison for committing.”
He added,”Trump had knowledge—indeed, he directed payment—of illegal hush money. Now there is no doubt: Individual-1 is Donald Trump, a co-conspirator, even if unindicted.”
