Description

Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, has speculated that his ex-boss may have kept secret documents at Mar-a-Lago to use as a bargaining chip if and when he is arrested for alleged felonies. “I believe the sensitive information was going to be used by him as a get out of jail free card,” Mr Cohen said. “The second they would put him in handcuffs, he would turn around and say I have the documentation showing, for example, where our nuclear launch pads are... This is what I believe: He would use it and say, if you proceed with this, I’m telling you right now there’s 20 of my loyal supporters, you don’t know who they are, but we will release that information to Russia, to Iran, to whoever it might be. Because he doesn’t care about this country.”
