President Donald Trump appeared on former attorney Michael Cohen’s WABC 77 radio program in New York on Sunday and praised Cohen for what Trump described as “a brave thing.” Trump said Cohen had recanted testimony against him after facing pressure from prosecutors.
Trump stated that Cohen had fallen victim to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and what Trump called a Democrat-run “weaponized government.” He compared the situation to something out of the Wild West and said the system had forced Cohen to warp his testimony.
