        Cohen likely has a sealed indictment against him and working out cooperation details. This is an important step because up until now the GOP kept Cohen on as a means to pay his legal bills. Their justification was that he hadn’t been charged with a crime.

        Maybe it is finally donning on some that they enabled the ascent of a truly horrible human.

        It took Cohen so long to resign because he was cleaning out the cash box?

        The fact he had to resign versus being removed tells you everything you need to know about RNC. Employers don’t keep employees after the FBI performs a judge approved no knock raid of employees home, office, P.O. box etc.

        AND that cause was largely about his actions that involved his FINANCIAL behavior (aka corruption)--Republicans seem not to worry about that.

        When you've got the stack of issues this guy had and still remained deputy finance chair, what could possibly be the final straw? Something up?

        He wasn’t criminal enough yet at that point to warrant the RNC asking him to step down.

        There were a lot to docs, emails, and check stubs to shred over at the #RNC. It takes time.

        Well we know that being a potential (or convicted) criminal is not disqualifying for the GOP.

        Speaking of criminal organizations, the Dems "stole" the 2016 nomination from Bernie.
