During a recent court session, Georgia Longstreet, responsible for reviewing social media content, presented several tweets by Donald Trump regarding his former attorney Michael Cohen. One tweet from 2018 compared Cohen to Paul Manafort, who had been sentenced to prison for bank and tax fraud. Manafort was later pardoned by Trump while in office.
Another tweet from August 22, 2018, advised against hiring Cohen as a lawyer, with Trump suggesting, 'If anyone is looking for a good lawyer, I would strongly suggest that you don’t retain the services of Michael Cohen!' On the same day, Trump also expressed sympathy for Manafort and his family.
These social media posts are being highlighted as Cohen is expected to testify in court soon. The tweets provide insight into the public dynamics between Trump, Cohen, and Manafort during that period. The comparison drawn between Cohen and Manafort, along with the public statements made by Trump, shed light on the relationships and sentiments within Trump's circle.
As the court proceedings continue, the social media posts serve as evidence of the interactions and opinions shared by key figures involved. The tweets offer a glimpse into the public discourse surrounding the legal matters and personal relationships of those in the spotlight.
