Justice Department careerists, led by special counsel Robert Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, have now served notice that they are targeting the presidency of Donald J. Trump.
No, prosecutors are seeking to criminalize Trump's extracurricular activities with American women, two in particular: Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.
Trump apparently took up the same year with Karen McDougal, a former preschool teacher who posed nude for Playboy magazine.
One of them, liberal activist Paul S. Ryan of Common Cause, complained to the Justice Department and the Federal Election Commission that Trump had violated campaign finance laws by paying off Daniels.
If you thought Mueller was going to ignore it and keep his eye on the ball - remember, he's supposed to be looking at a possible conspiracy between the 2016 Trump campaign and Vladimir Putin - you don't know his record.
The court filings said Cohen was acting at the direction of "Individual-1," who everybody knew to be Trump, meaning that the president is now the unindicted co-conspirator of a convicted felon.
Under the precedent set in Cohen's case, a candidate who got his teeth fixed, or had lap band surgery, or settled a lawsuit for Trump University - that is, anything that might help a campaign - is now committing a felony unless it's reported publicly.
