In more fallout from the
Stormy Daniels story, the LinkedIn Fixers Discussion Group announced on Friday that they were ejecting
Michael Cohen, who may or may not have been attorney/fixer for President Trump. I spoke with group administrator Mario
"The Wrench" Goldini about this action.
-
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me, Mr. Goldini.
-
You're welcome.
-
First of all, I guess like many others I was surprised to learn that there is a
Fixers Discussion Group on LinkedIn. Can
anyone join?
-
Yeah, well, I guess you could say that it was a break with protocol to announce
our existence, but we thought it was important.
And to answer your question, membership is strictly by referral. Our council looks you over before you're made,
I mean, accepted.
-
And why was it so important?
-
Cohen brought dishonor to the profession.
-
"Fixing?"
-
Yeah, that's right, fixing. Hey, no one
likes us until you get a squeaky wheel that needs a little grease.
-
So how did Mr. Cohen dishonor the profession, exactly?
Was it his deception? Greed?
-
Nah, he didn't fix anything, did he? If
he had just read our white paper, "How to Silence a Former Mistress,"
nobody would have ever heard of Stormy What's-Her-Name.
-
And what will be the practical effect of Mr. Cohen's ejection from the group?
-
For starters, he won't have access to our discussion boards.
-
Are your discussions that interesting?
-
Maybe not to a layman, but if you'd like to know that a certain IRS auditor in
the Buffalo field office just might need a new roof, it might be interesting.
-
And by "roof," you mean ....
-
I mean a roof, they go on top of your house.
Cost a fortune to re-tile. Hard
to swing on a civil servant's salary.
-
Can't Mr. Cohen just re-join under an alias?
-
Everyone knows that aliases are not his strong suit. He could have used our white paper on that,
too.
-
Wow, you guys have a lot of white papers.
-
That's right, including one on making nosy reporters disappear.
