( CNN) Few American chairpeople ever have experienced as much legal turmoil in one year as Donald Trump did in 2018. The past year brought a drumbeat of blockbuster revelations from special attorney Robert Mueller, but 2018 could end up as simply a brisk warmup for what's to come in 2019. Buckle up.
As a reminder of just how much has changed, here's what the landscape looked like one year ago today:
— Trump's longtime personal attorney, Michael Cohen, had a clean rap sheet. Cohen now has pleaded guilty to nine federal misdemeanours — including campaign finance crimes, in which both Cohen and the United Country Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York( SDNY) implicated Trump. Cohen will begin serving a three-year prison term in March 2019.
