He doesn’t do cover-ups, really?

President Trump says he’s the most transparent president our country has ever had and that he doesn’t do cover-ups. However, Anderson Cooper recently provided five examples proving that Trump continually tries to cover up his lies from the public. These include:

1. No longer having daily White House news briefings.

2. Covering up his payments to Stormy Daniels when the public can listen to a clear telephone conversation between Trump and Cohen as Trump gives directions to have Ms. Daniels paid off with Trump’s money to keep her silence about an affair between Ms. Daniels and Trump.

3. Not having a note taker in the room when Trump met with Vladimir Putin.

4. Not letting the public know about a public meeting Donald Trump had with top Russian officials only one day after he fired his FBI director and finding out about this from Russia’s state news agency.

5. Refusing to speak with Robert Mueller about questions of obstruction of justice when Mueller’s report provides evidence that Trump did in fact obstruct justice.

Further cover-ups include Trump directing his staff to illegally not respond to numerous subpoenas submitted by the House of Representatives.
