Legal experts say former President Donald Trump's $500 million lawsuit accusing former attorney Michael Cohen of both revealing his confidences and "spreading falsehoods" about him "makes no sense."
Trump on Wednesday filed a lawsuit against his former longtime fixer in federal court in Florida, days after the former president pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsification of business records stemming from Cohen's hush-money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign. Cohen, who pleaded guilty to federal charges in connection to the payments and testified that Trump reimbursed him, is expected to be a key witness in the trial.
