1986 THROWBACK: "ROY COHN PROFILE"

It wasn’t so long ago that the once-fearsome lawyer Roy Cohn and his infamous career seemed destined to be no more than a colorful footnote to history. Cohn was a gaudy character, for sure - a hustler, a fixer, and an amoral hypocrite of incredible drive - whose life as a closeted man ended in tragic comeuppance when he died of AIDS in 1986, insisting to the last that he couldn’t possibly be dying of that gay disease.
Tony Kushner wrote a vivid version of him into Angels in America, and that might have been the last word on Cohn if not for the fact that, in midlife, he had met and started giving legal and how-to-get-away-with-it life advice to a then-young Donald Trump, helping mold him into the man who became president.

[@ransomcoates546]

There is a great line in ‘Angels In America’ when he says, ‘People like me don’t die of AIDS, they die of liver cancer.’

[@rubaidaallen2764]

[@ransomcoates546]

[@jimreily7538]

Roy Cohn was so dishonest he made dishonest lawyers look honest. He wasn't dishonest. Honesty and dishonesty weren't in his brain. He had no use of such things as honesty or dishonesty. He did what worked. Lying worked. He wasn't just dishonest, he was the type of person who would would send two people, the Rosenbergs, to their death, KNOWING they were not actively treasonous. He wanted them to die so he could make a name for himself and by crickey did it work. When a truck driver beeped at John Gotti, because Gotti had blocked an alleyway, Gotti beat the hell out of the truck driver. Roy Cohn represented John Gotti. He said the truck driver took out a crowbar from the back of his truck and came at Gotti with a furious menace. When Carlo Gambinos son was killed, the guy that got ordered to kill him was John Gotti. Cops arrested Gotti, they had him with blood and fingerprint evidence. Cohn threatened the witnesses by implication ("if yon wanna wake up tomorrow") in so many words, and boom, Gotti was acquitted.

[@speaktruth9631]

"Rhetoric" is subjective.

[@Souleman561]

The only thing Roy learned from Joe C was this "if your always attacking then you do not need to defend".... meaning if you are pushing yor arguement hard enough and the person is engaged in that arguement then you have won. You want to draw them into your arguement versus having them question the basis of the arguement. Just like pointing out communist were of purely a attacking nature, if you defended yourself by recognizing their arguement as valid then you lost. If a basis for a arguement isn't valid there is no reason to partake in the arguement. It's about framing the arguement or subject in your lens. You want to get people to look thru your looking glasses (your perspective) at the arguement which out them knowing your purposefully framing the arguement in your lens. Trying to prove your not a communist or proving you do not believe in the ideals set forth in communist literature is a broken arguement because how can you prove what ideas are in your head.... I think the Mccarthy Era stuff merely open Roy up to perception and how to control the narrative or outlooks on situations .

[@crystaljackson4911]

I was just reading the book Citizen Cohn last night (im still on the first chapter)stopped after the part where he was at his New Years eve party in 1986 he was really sick, and this one lady said people were astonished that he was able to stand up and be strong and take pictures with his friends and family even though he was sick.

Everyone should have their own privacy and make their own decisions about how they deal with their sexuality.

So against such a back drop, he forfeits the rite 2 any kindda privacy. Additionally, his being a closet homosexual had a direct effect on his character. He was filled with self-loathing & shame & his rage manifested itself in his super right-wing views & actions, his utter vindictiveness & loathing of anything considered fair, impartial or community-minded | He was human.

He never contributed information or support to those infected and he continued to go to bath houses and use male escorts knowing he was contagious.
