Republicans are ready to attack Trump's ex-lawyer Michael Cohen during congressional testimony.

Presidentis in Vietnam to hold nuclear talks with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, so it will be up to his Republican allies on Capitol Hill to defend him in hearings with his former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen.

But before his incarceration, Cohen will appear before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday for a public hearing, where he will reportedly share evidence alleging that Trump committed criminal conduct since becoming president. Democrats on the committees are reportedly expected to grill Cohen on a variety of topics over the course of the week, including Mueller's probe of Russian election interference and possible Trump-campaign collusion. That could encompass the scrapped Trump Tower Moscow dealings or the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting with a Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer.

Rather, the panel's GOP members are mainly poised to attack Cohen's credibility during the Wednesday hearing, a congressional aide familiar with the committee's minority told CNBC. The Republicans will further argue that Cohen's presence before the committee in a public hearing — among the first such events since Democrats took majority control in January — damages the credibility of the panel.

They call him a liar but accept trump's word.

Republicans should be fighting realDonaldTrump fake emergency because if he gets away with it I’m positive TheDemocrats will have a Democratic President they are going to use the same thing to get shit done.

Next time, please ask CooperMan what mantra he might lend about fascism as a proponent to majority based democratic rule. We could discuss how 'Republican Virtues' apply, but only in the context of an ideology which supports debt accumulation when their side gets all they want.

Nothing will work deplorables. Not Ivanka trying desperately to deflect from this, not 'he is a liar!' Trumpkin Russian installed Cambridge Analytica bot tweets. It's over. You must understand that. On to Impeachtrump now!

He has corroborating evidence!

Of course. Did we expect anything less? Cohen has the power to topple the Trump cult. A cult that the republicans have bought into for re-election purposes.

Sure...let's attack the truth, because the truth hurts Republican chances of continuing to hide and obfuscate the truth. MSNBC CNN nytimes washingtonpost foxandfriends

Meanwhile, Trump is de-nuclearizing NK.

Too bad they aren't interested in getting to the truth.

THE FIXER!!!

They should. This guy is a convicted liar !!!
