Trump’s Longtime Lawyer: Cohen 'Weak', Potential 'Co-Conspirator' | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

The New York Times reports Michael Cohen recorded a conversation with Trump discussing secret payoffs to women. Trump’s lawyer before Michael Cohen, Jay Goldberg, tells Ari Melber that Cohen likely made tapes because he viewed himself as a “co-conspirator” and says he considers Cohen is a “weak” person who “couldn’t be counted on to protect the person who was paying him”.

MAGA
Michael Avenatti Great Attorney

Trump says he didn't know that he was recorded. It is the same thing he said when he found out that Putin recorded the famous pee-pee tape. Trump is not the sharpest tack.

[angelajones]

[tinomartinez]

[gilliankennedy]

Bogus POTUS must be concerned about what other tapes will be revealed 😂

[diabetichoneybee]

Protect your boss who is throwing you under a bus. Show loyalty and blind obedience and get nothing in return. So that's how it works. Got it...

[SG-rvjo]

Trump truly deserves Giulliani--a lapdog of proportions.

[jayzenitram]

Trump lying? You don't say … you know what would shock me at this point? If he told the truth.

[davidclark]

Don't you envy a guy who cannot do anything right and gets praised by a following that thinks he can do everything right.

[antonomaseapophasis]

Wow, the faces of the people on the show: little bit of shock, some blinking disbelief, laughing, astonished agreement, an occasional actual dropped jaw.

I found there to be a slightly hallucinogenic atmosphere.

I think I will get a little tattoo on my hand: “Yes, we are talking about the President of the United States.”

[vbrigham]

The title for this video should have been, " When I told you I WON'T record our conversations, what I meant to say was, I WILL record our conversations!"! A double negative?
