Michael Cohen, former attorney for President Trump, is scheduled to interview Trump on his radio show on Thursday. This will be the first public conversation between the two in eight years. Cohen confirmed the interview to CBS News, stating that while there have been private conversations, this marks a significant public engagement.
Cohen was closely associated with Trump for over a decade, serving as his 'fixer' and being involved in various dealings of the Trump Organization. However, their relationship deteriorated amid legal issues related to a payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election. Cohen pleaded guilty in 2018 to multiple charges, including campaign finance violations, and served time in prison.
In recent months, Cohen has expressed mixed feelings about his past testimony against Trump, suggesting he felt pressured by prosecutors. Despite their tumultuous history, Cohen indicated that he reached out to Trump, who agreed to participate in the interview. The conversation will be recorded and aired on Cohen's radio show, "When You Know, You Know… with Michael Cohen," on New York's 770am WABC station.
