Former attorney for Donald Trump, Michael Cohen, recently discussed new developments in Trump’s civil trial case in New York. Speaking with Ali Velshi, Cohen called for Judge Engoron to expand Trump’s gag order to include protection for witnesses, including himself. Cohen also expressed his belief that Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump lied under oath during their recent testimonies.
During the interview, Cohen made a clear statement regarding Eric Trump’s alleged lack of experience in concrete pouring. According to Cohen, Eric has never engaged in such activities. Additionally, Cohen challenged Don Jr.’s claim of being merely a broker, asserting that both brothers were actually responsible for running the company while their father was president. Cohen emphasized that they operated under the supervision of Allen Weisselberg, who served as the trustee.
Cohen’s remarks shed light on his concerns about the truthfulness of the Trump brothers’ testimonies. As the legal proceedings continue, Cohen’s call for an expanded gag order demonstrates his desire to protect witnesses involved in the case. Cohen’s involvement in the trial and his firsthand knowledge of the Trump family’s business operations make his insights particularly valuable.
