One of President Trump‘s former attorneys said he urged the president not to trust Michael Cohen to fully protect him, and warned that Cohen would eventually cooperate with federal prosecutors.
The attorney, Jay Goldberg, told the Wall Street Journal that he spoke to Trump on the phone last Friday. In that call, he reportedly told Trump that on a scale of 1 to 100, where 100 represents full protection of the president, Cohen “isn’t even a 1.”
“Michael will never stand up [for you],” Goldberg said he told Trump.
Goldberg is one of several personal advisers that Trump has reached out to recently about the criminal investigation into Cohen, a longtime personal attorney for the president.

People who think Cohen would never flip have never paid attention to the Mob. They ALL flip in the end.

Why would Trump have to worry about it? He’s innocent of any wrongdoing right? Doesn’t Goldberg think so too?
If Cohen has an ounce of brain, he would work out a deal. Why should he go down alone?
