President Trump on Monday slammed Michael Cohen on Twitter.
President Trump on Monday slammed his former attorney Michael Cohen for requesting "no prison time" and alleged many "terrible," "unrelated"-to-him things Cohen has done. He said in a series of tweets: "'Michael Cohen asks judge for no Prison Time.' You mean he can do all of the TERRIBLE, unrelated to Trump, things having to do with fraud, big loans, Taxis, etc., and not serve a long prison term?" "He makes up stories to get a GREAT & ALREADY reduced deal for himself, and get his wife and father-in-law (who has the money?) off Scott Free. He lied for this outcome and should, in my opinion, serve a full and complete sentence," Trump continued. Cohen's request was revealed in a Friday night court filing and stressed how extensively he has cooperated with investigators. That filing also provides further information about then-candidate Trump's efforts to build a self-branded tower in Moscow. CNN reports it "suggests in the clearest language yet the extent to which Cohen kept Trump informed of his efforts to move the project to build a Trump Tower in Moscow forward well into June 2016."
