Normally, Clinton goons aren’t stupid. Lanny Davis is the rare exception. Davis, as slimy as any other Clinton hack but isn’t very bright. Davis revealed himself to be CNN’s “source” about Michael Cohen claiming Trump knew about his son’s Trump Tower meeting about Russian adoption. Then Davis tried to back-peddle, defend CNN and claim it was his fault for the lie.
Turns out Davis’ GoFundMe page for Michael Cohen is a big flop too. It hasn’t even reached 40% of the original goal when the page was started by Lanny Davis back in August.

The GoFundMe page for Democratic attorney Lanny Davis’s client, Michael Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer, isn’t doing quite as well as its sponsors had expected.
Far from raising $500,000 in a day or two, as happened with fired former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe, it’s been stuck for days in the $150,000 range (it’s $166,031 as of Saturday morning, and the cash is just trickling in), with more than $300,000 to go. What’s more, the effort is now old news, having been up for ten days, so it’s unlikely to revive unless there’s some news spectacular. It’s called the “Michael Cohen Truth Fund,” and, presumably, it would have been a fundraising effort to pay off Cohen’s legal fees, based on his guilty pleas in a Manhattan federal court, in a case derived from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russian collusion investigation. If Democratic stalwart and Clintonite extraordinaire Lanny Davis is Cohen’s lawyer, then it’s presumably his fees.
This will be bad news for Lanny if Cohen can’t cough up the cash some other way.
