Trump Unleashed SCATHING Rant At NYT For Suggesting Michael Cohen Will Flip On Him

President Trump went on a TIRADE this morning after the NYT suggested his long-time lawyer Michael Cohen will “flip” on him.

The New York Times and a third rate reporter named Maggie Haberman, known as a Crooked H flunkie who I don’t speak to and have nothing to do with, are going out of their way to destroy Michael Cohen and his relationship with me in the hope that he will “flip.” They use….

….non-existent “sources” and a drunk/drugged up loser who hates Michael, a fine person with a wonderful family. Michael is a businessman for his own account/lawyer who I have always liked & respected. Most people will flip if the Government lets them out of trouble, even if….

….it means lying or making up stories. Sorry, I don’t see Michael doing that despite the horrible Witch Hunt and the dishonest media!

According to this:

Following a recent FBI raid on Cohen’s house, The Washington Post revealed that Cohen is being investigated for possible bank fraud and campaign finance violations related to questionable payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels (Stephanie Clifford).

“I will do anything to protect Mr. Trump,” Cohen told Fox News in 2017, according to TheNYT. “I’m the guy who would take a bullet for the president. I’d never walk away.”

TheNYT, citing half a dozen sources, claims that the president treated Cohen like garbage, occasionally threatening to fire him over various unsuccessful business ventures and projects. Speculating, TheNYT seemed to suggest that Trump’s lawyer might not stand up for him now that he is in the hot seat. Trump asserts the media is intentionally trying to damage his relationship with Cohen to get him to “flip” on the president.

I don’t know anything about Michael Cohen, so I don’t know if President Trump is right to trust him not to “flip.”

What we ALSO don’t know is what intimidation tactics are being used against Cohen…

Put it this way. If he’s being told he might spend the rest of his life in prison for so and so crimes (whether the crimes are real or not) unless he hands over some dirt on Trump… he miiiight just come up with some dirt.

I’m not saying he WILL do that. I’m just saying there are very few people I trust wouldn’t crack under that kind of pressure.

It’s all SO shady…
