Mr. Trump and Mr. Cohen previously represented to the American people that Mr. Cohen acted on his own and Mr. Trump knew nothing about the agreement with my client, the $130k payment, etc. As I predicted, that has now been shown to be completely false. #basta

How is this man not in jail or impeached yet:
Donald Trump said Thursday that attorney Michael Cohen “represented me” by cutting a deal with porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016, after the president previously said he didn’t know about the “hush money” payment.
Trump also tried to distance himself from Cohen, who is currently under federal criminal investigation related to his business dealings.
“Let me just tell you, Michael is in business — he is really a businessman, a fairly big business, as I understand it,” Trump told the hosts of “Fox & Friends” in a phone interview. “I don’t know his business, but this doesn’t have to do with me. Michael is a businessman. He has got a business. He also practices law.”
Trump said Cohen represented “a percentage of my overall legal work — a tiny, tiny little fraction.”
“But Michael would represent me and represent me on some things. He represents me like with this crazy Stormy Daniels deal, he represented me,” he said.
Any lawyer who agrees to represent this moron is a fool. And that’d not even taking into consideration he probably won’t pay his bill.
