President Donald Trump spent much of Thursday morning slamming his former lawyer Michael Cohen, who pleaded guilty to lying to Congress during the investigation into Russia's
involvement in the 2016 election.
A reporter made a good point in response to these insults, asking Trump: "If Cohen is such a bum, why did you hire him and have him on your payroll for 12 years and have him do so
much of your dirty work?" Trump responded: "Because a long time ago, he did me a favor. A long time ago he did me a favor."
It's unclear what exactly that favor entailed. But back in back in April Business Insider reported that Cohen first entered the Trump orbit in the early 2000s when he stepped in to help
the then-real-estate-magnate deal with a dispute with residents.
"So Trump said, 'Who is this guy? My lawyers that I give thousands of dollars to couldn't do it. I'd like to meet him,'" Dr. Morton Levine, Cohen's uncle, told BI at the time. On Thursday,
however, the now-president wasn't exactly enthused about Cohen, who is cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller.
"[Cohen is] a weak person," Trump told reporters. "And by being weak—unlike other people that you watch—he's a weak person, and what he's trying to do is get a reduced sentence. So
he is lying about a project everybody knew about."
Trump, for his part, said he did nothing wrong even if he did take part in discussion about the planned Moscow project.
"and by being weak, he's a weak person"
Holy shit, am I reading literature birthed by this generation's Shakespeare? Am I witnessing history in the making with this eloquence?

Ah the "Who is that guy I had a long documented relationship with" routine.
Isn't that even worse? I mean, he's always said that he employs only the best people and now he's admitting that he hired Cohen even though he knew he was shit.
Trump, you silly old man, keep digging that hole!
