Michael Cohen Reveals When And How Trump Will Flip On His Own Family To Avoid Jail
Michael Cohen Reveals When And How Trump Will Flip On His Own Family To Avoid Jail
Michael Cohen , former personal attorney and “fixer” to Donald Trump , delivered a blunt warning Wednesday to the former president’s closest associates and even his own family.
“I think Donald Trump is going to flip on all of them,” he warned, “including his children.”
Cohen spoke on MSNBC one day after it was revealed that the Trump Organization is now the subject of a criminal investigation by the New York attorney general.
“I really believe that Donald Trump cares for only himself, and he realizes that his goose is cooked,” Cohen said.
And that means he’ll start looking for others to blame, he said.
First, he said, Trump will blame Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg and others involved in his finances.
“It wasn’t me. It was Allen. It was my accountant. It was the appraiser,” Cohen said, mimicking a potential Trump argument. “It’s never Donald. See, this is the problem. It’s never, ever Donald Trump. It’s always somebody else.”
And when investigators start raising questions about Trump’s tax returns, he’s going to blame those closest to him.
“He’s going to turn on his accountant and point the finger,” Cohen predicted. “He’s going to say, ‘Don Jr. handled that, Ivanka handled that. Melania. Don’t take me. Take Melania.’ He’s going to tell them to take everyone except for himself. That’s just the kind of guy he is.”
Cohen worked for Trump for years until turning on him in 2018 and cooperating with investigators. He pleaded guilty to lying to Congress and campaign finance violations for arranging the hush-money payments from Trump to porn star Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal.
Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison but was released into home confinement last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
On Wednesday, he said some of the information he provided ― including taped conversations with Trump ― shows how closely the former president directed everything around him and his organization.
And that, he said, could land the Trump family in prison.
“I do have to say that my credibility, I believe, is going to end up getting Donald, Don Jr., Ivanka, Jared, Eric, Weisselberg, his kids, some orange jumpsuits,” he said.

I believe my good friend devangelical was correct.

Even Ivanka? If he flips on her, she'll never agree to have his children.
Here's a preview
Until and if it happens, no comment.
I know, I've had my hopes dashed too many times to see it as a certainty
When he still ends up in prison, he had better hope that none he has flipped on are in the same prison. Personally, I hope he does and it helps put many of them away.
Any prosecutor, even one that graduated last, is going to look him in the eye and tell him all of that is irrelevant. They've already shown what a micro-manager he is. The DA knows that while the family have guilt of their own, his taxes don't concern them. Why would they? Is that why he had kids so he could throw them under the bus some day?
daddy trump, jr, and iskanka are working out the details now to pin the whole shit show on eric.
The moment Mr Sharpie signed his returns, he is culpable.
Trump Trump Trump....
Progressives are aware he's not President, right? Maybe the site should lean into its' obsession, and rebrand as Trumptalkers. All Trump, all the time.
Since Trump has already hinted about a 2024 run, the issue is important, whether or not the results of it are sufficient to prevent him from holding public office. If Trump had just walked away from political manipulating, he would no longer have been newsworthy, or worth NT commentary. But of course you knew that, didn't you.
And he's still fussing over the election results!
It must be dawning on you that he is a piece of shit liar and crook. Took long enough.
"Trump Trump Trump....

Duh! Which is why we're going after the piece of shit now because we allegedly couldn't while this piece of shit was 'president'.
Progressives are still talking about him Sean because he still has a grip on the large majority of GOP cowards in congress. When they stop listening to Trump and start working for the majority of Americans, then Trump will be left to rest in the dustbin of history as you seemingly want to happen.
Don't worry, folks, your spouses and kids will visit once a month, unless they're incarcerated as well.
Ivanka won't like how she looks in ORANGE!
If they had anything of substance they would have already charged Trump. This is just more politically motivated bullshit like Russian Collusion that will come to nothing. Honestly what are the chances they are going to uncover a crime that the statute of limitations hasn't run out on that could actually land Trump in Prison ? I say ZERO, the only way they'll get Trump in Prison is if they suborn perjury which I wouldn't put past them.
I wouldn't bet the farm on that thinking right yet. This thing now has turned into a criminal investigation. That's a big jump from being charged under civil law.
Why don't we let just all keep our powder dry while this thing plays out. Remember, Trump gets to tie things up in court as his right. Due process please.
