Michael Cohen says he reconciled with Trump
President Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen on Monday said he and the president have reconciled after he turned on his former boss.
Cohen joined John Catsimatidis and Rita Cosby for Friday’s “Cats & Cosby Show” on 77 WABC to talk about the president and said the “far left … brought back the relationship” roughly six months ago.
“Out of nowhere, when I was sitting with my wife at a restaurant, my phone buzzed and it was a text from that friend who expressed to me the president’s genuine empathy for the hell that I was being dragged through … I deeply appreciated that text,” Cohen said. “I actually texted the president. I thanked him. Expressed my sincere hope that this long, exhausting feud between the two of us could finally end.”
Cohen said Trump replied back “almost immediately” and said it was “actually time for us to meet.”
“We both knew the cost of this war,” he said about their feud. “In that moment the ice between us, it didn’t just melt, it broke.”
Cohen said ” the left embraced me as their ultimate weapon against” Trump and that he “deviated from their script. The pack, they turned feral.”
The president’s former counsel also distanced the president from convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Trump and Epstein had a relationship before falling out years before criminal charges were first brought against Epstein in 2008. Trump has denied any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein’s crimes.
“I never once witnessed, I never heard of, I never saw, I never communicated, never saw in the office Jeffrey Epstein,” he said. “Never saw him speak to him … Those two things shattered [the left’s] narrative. The far left, they literally went on this absolute warpath against me.”
The president’s one-time “fixer” admitted in the 2024 hush money case that he facilitated payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels to cover up an alleged affair ahead of the 2016 presidential election and maintained it was done at Trump’s direction.
He pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and tax evasion in 2018. Cohen later pleaded guilty to lying to Congress as well. He received a prison sentence and was eventually released, after a period of house arrest, in late 2021.
Cohen testified as the key witness in the New York hush money case brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) against Trump and the Trump Organization in 2023, testifying that he “reverse-engineered” Trump’s financial statements.
The president was found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying business records in the case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D). Trump last month appealed to have his conviction and civil fraud judgment tossed.
Having previously made his way to the top of Trump’s enemy list, Cohen told MS NOW’s Nicole Wallace that he would leave the country if Trump won the 2024 presidential election.
“I’m out of here. I mean, I’m already working on a foreign passport with a completely different name,” Cohen told Wallace. “I don’t know how it’s going to work, as far as dealing with my wife and my children. I certainly don’t want them moving to where I’m looking to go.”
