Michael Cohen, Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer will be releasing his tell-all book on Donald Trump soon.
On Thursday he released the foreword for the book, which makes unsavory allegations about Trump’s personal life as well as his presidential campaign.
According to Cohen Trump participated in “golden showers in a sex club in Vegas.” engaged in tax fraud, and cheated in the 2016 presidential election with “Russian connivance.”
The book is titled “Disloyal.” In its foreword, Cohen writes: “From golden showers in a sex club in Vegas, to tax fraud, to deals with corrupt officials from the former Soviet Union, to catch and kill conspiracies to silence Trump’s clandestine lovers, I wasn’t just a witness to the president’s rise—I was an active and eager participant.”
Cohen goes on to claim that Trump “colluded with the Russians, but not in the sophisticated ways imagined by his detractors.” He added that the Mueller investigation “was not a witch-hunt” because Trump “had cheated in the election, with Russian connivance.”
Cohen also alleges that Trump lied to Melania to hide affairs and that Trump “has no true friends because he “lived his entire life avoiding and evading taking responsibility for his actions.”
Trump has taken several legal steps in an attempt to stop Cohen’s book from being released. Last month a judge ruled that Cohen was retaliated against by the Justice Department over the book’s publication.
Cohen has not given an exact release date yet but has stated that he wants to wait and release it closer to the November elections.
“Both sides were wrong. I knew that the reality was much more complicated and dangerous. Trump had colluded with the Russians, but not in the sophisticated ways imagined by his detractors. I also knew that the Mueller investigation was not a witch-hunt. Trump had cheated in the election, with Russian connivance, as you will discover in these pages because doing anything—and I mean anything—to ‘win’ has always been his business model and way of life.”
Back in 2018, Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison for campaign-finance violations that stemmed from payoffs to adult film star Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal. He was also found guilty of lying to Congress about discussions surrounding a proposed Trump Tower in Moscow during the 2016 presidential campaign.
