Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen predicted Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that Donald, his children, including Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr., and Trump Organization’s chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg will go to prison as a result of the New York attorney general’s investigation into the Trump Organization.
Anchor Joy Reid said, “The reason I asked you about the size of the organization is that that would mean presumably that someone like Allen Weisselberg and maybe even the Trump children, would they be in the know about the valuation of these assets? You’re talking about assets that Ivanka and Jared and the sons are out there pitching and selling these licensing agreements for? Would they potentially have exposure here? I was asking in the previous segment should they be getting their own lawyers.”
Cohen said, “They have to get their own lawyer. I have a very different opinion. I’m going to answer your question, but I have a little different opinion on this than most people. The answer is yes. They would know what the valuations are, specifically on projects they were designated to. Each one of the children were designated to different projects. Allen Weisselberg knew every dollar, not even to the dollar, every penny in and every penny out, when through Weisselberg’s desk and reported before and after to Donald J. Trump. As I stated, there was a very small core group of executives, a larger subset, but a very small core group.”

I’m actually worried about this - things can be construed by prosecutors to look however they want...not to mention people are getting the Gen Flynn treatment to turn on DJT.
Our government - for the most part - is evil. I used to wonder why some other countries (mostly third world) hate us and it makes sense now. The deep state is arrogant and evil.
It's a common occurrence with the gutless members of the GOP.
A Weasel, weaseling.
Yawn...this is the democrat plan from day 1, November 7th 2016.
I predict, Cohen will be dead before 2022!
Good riddance Michael, say hello to Satan for Nancy!
“The Walls are closing in!....
Speaking publicly against the interests of a client or former
Client is a violation of “professional ethics” that can lead to disciplinary action against the violating attorney.
Further, it appears to paint a false and defamatory image of his client and his client’s family. Saying somebody is a criminal is per se defamation when , as here, there hasn’t even been a charge
What a sleaze ball lawyer!! Gives the entire “profession” a black eye. And that’s really saying something , ha!
“ Question: What’s the difference between a dead skunk on the road and a dead lawyer?
Answer: There are skid marks in front of the skunk. ”
My take is this, he has hired many many folks- he can’t get them all 100% correct- there are bound to be bad apples among the3 bunch- They BS him to get on his good side and get hired, causing him to not suspect that anything is wrong- then they don’t get the promotions or whatever quick enough that they think they’re entitled to, aNd so they then turn on him and seek revenge-
Maybe that has something to do with their zealous hatred.
From what I hear, being overlooked for hire is what turned at least two #NeverTrumps against him; I give you
George (Kellyanne) Conway and Judge Napolitano who may or may not still be guesting on Fox News. I rarely watch any TV these days.
Really? When he was trying to overturn the election, he used Powell, and Rudy.
Where is Michael Avanati? He used to say this kind of thing.
Chris Christie is another ahole who turned against President Trump.
Christie wanted to be Attorney General, and the president said “No.”
Delusional
yep- napolitano turned out to be a real disappointment- he definitely changed somewhere along the line, likely due to not getting what he wanted, to a nasty never Trumper-
I think it was him that ended up in prison. Now, he’s willing to tell ANY lie to wiggle out of the crooked web he weaved. The prisons and jails are FULL of them. Now this crook looks at Trump and his family and starts making allegations... Hey LOSER, have you EVER heard of the muellar investigation? They kicked over EVERY rock and found “SQUAT”!
Cohen is defeated. Using a preposition at the end of a sentence is a sign of inferiority. Using “there” and “these” in the same sentence is another sign of inferiority. Cohen cannot win a case against an honest, educated person. Cohen is defeated and a failure.
Excuse me but I thought Cohen was Pres Trump’s accountant.
Re Cohen’s unintentionally damaging statement about “the kid would be in the know” re the Trump organization etc., it would also apply to Hunter Biden and other Biden family members as to what Hunter and Joe were secretly doing in deals with Ukraine, Red China, etc.
Cohen wasn’t hired for his legal expertise. He was hired to do shady deals that are par for the course — but also perfectly legal — in NYC real estate, while shielding his client through lawyer/client privilege.
The usual suspects have been trying to shovel up dirt on the Trump family since the President first announced his candidacy. They came up with nothing.
