One of the major updates into one of the ongoing investigations on former President Donald Trump and the Trump Organization this week was when the New York AG announced that her investigation is now of a criminal nature. According to Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen, the former president may turn on his inner circle in case he is criminally charged, including his family.
Speaking with host Joy Reid on MSNBC, Cohen was pressed on whether Trump’s adult children, who serve as executives in the Trump Organization, should hire their own lawyers. Cohen said that they must hire their own attorneys, being well aware of the company’s finances and assets, including Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg. However, Cohen also predicted that Trump would be willing to turn on his family in order to save himself.
“I think Donald Trump is going to flip on all of them. What do you think about that? Including his children,” said Cohen, leaving Reid surprised. Cohen went on to explain that the former president only cares about himself and will always look for someone else to blame in order to get away free.
Cohen added the scenario of Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance and New York AG Letitia James asking the former president questions about his taxes. Trump’s former lawyer predicted that the former president would drop his children’s names, including Ivanka Trump, even his wife, former first lady Melania Trump.
“‘I don’t do my taxes, it’s my accountant.’ He’ll turn on the accountant, say that Don Jr. handled something, even Ivanka or Melania handled it,” said Cohen. “He’s going to tell them to take everyone other than himself.”
Trump is now facing yet another lawsuit, and this time it’s from the Chinese American Civil Rights Coalition, over his xenophobic rhetoric against Asian Americans during the pandemic. The coalition is suing Trump for referring to COVID-19 as the “China virus,” “Kung Flu,” and “Wuhan virus,” as the virus first emerged in Wuhan, China, in late December 2019.
According to the lawsuit, Trump’s use of the derogatory names for COVID-19 contributed to the increase in hate crimes against Chinese and Asian Americans.
