| In a New Yorker piece this weekend, Adam Davidson predicted that the final stage of the Trump presidency had already begun. The investigation into Michael Cohen, the president’s personal lawyer and longtime fixer, marks the beginning of the end, Davidson argued. |
| “I am unaware of anybody who has taken a serious look at Trump’s business who doesn’t believe that there is a high likelihood of rampant criminality,” Davidson wrote. “He had a small, sad operation, mostly run by his two oldest children and Michael Cohen, a lousy lawyer who barely keeps up the pretenses of lawyering and who now faces an avalanche of charges, from taxicab-backed bank fraud to money laundering and campaign-finance violations.” |
| If that forecast is correct, there is little wonder that President Trump seems to be thinking more seriously about firing Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, and perhaps Robert Mueller, the special counsel. Doing either could disrupt the investigations into his 2016 campaign and his businesses. |
| “Make no mistake,” The Times editorial board writes, in a full-page editorial today, “If Mr. Trump takes such drastic action, he will be striking at the foundation of the American government, attempting to set a precedent that a president, alone among American citizens, is above the law.” |
| The responsibility will then fall to Congress to defend “the American experiment itself.” |
