Cohen's lawyer on Trump Tower meeting: Cohen was 'present at a discussion with' Trump and Trump Jr.

Source: The Hill

Michael Cohen’s attorney Lanny Davis on Wednesday claimed Cohen witnessed a discussion between President Trump and Donald Trump, Jr., that was apparently related to the 2016 Trump Tower meeting between campaign officials and a Russian lawyer.

Davis, who is a contributor to The Hill, was asked by CNN’s Wolf Blitzer on “The Situation Room” what evidence Cohen has, as he has claimed, that Trump knew in advance about the meeting.

“At this juncture, I can only say that he was present during a discussion with Jr. and dad,” Davis told CNN. “Beyond that his testimony to the Senate Intelligence and House Intelligence committees was accurate.”

He seems to be an old-fashioned lawyer who has counseled Cohen to be up-front in order to lessen his sentence and get his life back after he has served his sentence. He seems to be throwing out some enticements in what he has decided he can say vs. what he can't. Is that to give Mueller incentive to let Cohen flip?

Whoever Lanny Davis is, he's a hell of a better choice for Cohen than Ghouliani was for Trump.

He's obviously surrounded himself with fellow criminals because nobody else would tolerate the shit he's been pulling.
