Lanny Davis raises the question on every thinker's mind.
Michael Cohen's attorney, Lanny Davis, argued Tuesday that his client's guilty plea and subsequent testimony that he violated campaign finance laws at the direction of a candidate showed President Trump committed a crime.
"Michael Cohen took this step today so that his family can move on to the next chapter. This is Michael fulfilling his promise made on July 2nd to put his family and country first and tell the truth about Donald Trump," Davis said in a statement.
"Today he stood up and testified under oath that Donald Trump directed him to commit a crime by making payments to two women for the principal purpose of influencing an election," he continued. "If those payments were a crime for Michael Cohen, then why wouldn't they be a crime for Donald Trump?"
