Michael Cohen Busts Trump And His Son For Financial Fraud

Cohen: That’s correct.

Q: I just want the American public to understand the explosive nature of your current testimony in this document. Are you telling us, Mr. Cohen, that the president directed transactions in conspiracy with Allen Weissberg and his son, Donald Trump Jr., as part of a civil — as part of a criminal conspiracy of financial fraud, is that your testimony today?

Cohen: Yes.

Q: Do you know if this criminal financial scheme that the president Allen Weisselberg and Donald Trump Jr. are involved in is being investigated by the southern district of New York?

Cohen: I would rather not discuss that question because it could be part of an investigation that’s currently ongoing.

Q: But I just want the American public to understand that totally apart if Bob Mueller’s investigation, there’s garden variety financial fraud in your allegation and explosive smoking gun document suggests the president, his son and CFO may be involved in a criminal conspiracy? And isn’t it true, Mr. Cohen, that this criminal conspiracy that involved four people, that there’s only one person so far who suffered the repercussions and that’s why you’re in jail?

Cohen: I will be going to jail, yes.

Q: Three other people, though, who were equally involved in this conspiracy, is that true?
