Yeah well, he's not exactly competent, so it makes even more sense he is perfect for Trump and the bumbling crew.
What Could Michael Cohen Tell Robert Mueller?
Friday is the deadline that a federal judge, Kimba Wood, set for an independent law firm to sort through the materials that the F.B.I. seized from Cohen during a dawn raid, in April, on his office, home, and hotel room, and to decide which are covered by attorney-client privilege.
Once the sorting process is completed, investigators from the U.S. Attorney’s office will gain access to the material that isn’t privileged,
which may well include many of the contents of Cohen’s cell phones, computers, and filing cabinets.
Many legal observers believe that an indictment of Cohen is likely to follow pretty soon.
That’s partly because the feds are widely assumed to have presented evidence of probable wrongdoing to obtain the warrant they used to raid Cohen’s properties.
First, there is the Russia connection.
Cohen has extensive links in New York’s business community of Russian-born immigrants. It is well known that he worked with Felix Sater, a Russian-born business associate of Trump, on an abortive project to develop a Trump Tower in Moscow. Sater has said that there was nothing untoward about their efforts. But, according to a lengthy report that Buzzfeed published last month, “FBI agents investigating Russia’s interference in the election learned that Cohen was in frequent contact with foreign individuals about Trump Moscow—and that some of these individuals had knowledge of or played a role in 2016 election meddling.”
Mueller may also be interested in clearing up the issue of whether Cohen visited Prague in 2016, and met with people connected to Russia, as was alleged in the Steele dossier.
A third area of interest may be Cohen’s role in pushing a Russia-Ukraine peace plan that was hatched by a Ukrainian politician,
Andrey Artemenko, but which reputedly also had the backing of Russians close to the Kremlin. It has been reported that Cohen gave a copy of this plan to Michael Flynn,
Cohen may provide information about payoffs that he made on Trump’s behalf to women who claimed to have had affairs with the President.
Finally, there are any other business dealings that Cohen may have been involved in on Trump’s behalf.
We don’t know everything Cohen did for Trump, and there were in-house lawyers at the Trump Organization who vetted a lot of the President’s ventures, including the overseas ones. But Mueller would presumably like to hear a full accounting of what Cohen did for his boss.

First David Dennison will distance himself from Michael Cohen, then he will inevitably suffer a similar fate:
After Manafort's jailing, I guess Cohen needs a fresh change of underwear.
This guy just needs to go away and stick with Daniels and her personal stuff. He could use the money.
Cohen isso still in the Daniels business.
Avenatti ain't goin nowhere.

The guy who can’t pay his bills looking for tv work.

Second tweet.
Mr. Pecker has retained a personal lawyer in this playmate case.
You bet he has...
Bombs new subpoena just rocked the White House in Trump-Cohen probe
a $150,000 payment to a Playboy playmate who says she had a sexual affair with Trump in 2006 for rights to an article about her – which never appeared – may be an illegal campaign contribution.
The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York and the FBI have subpoenaed records and do ents related to the payment to Karen McDougal in August 2016,
less than two months before the presidential election.
They are seeking to interview American Media executives, including David Pecker,the CEO who has said publically he is a close friend of Trump, reports The Wall St. Journal.
“Mr. Trump’s relationship with the National Enquirer stretches back decades. Tips about Mr. Trump poured into the tabloid after his television show ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ took off in 2002, but the Enquirer turned away stories that could paint him in a bad light, two former American Media employees said.”
“Barry Levine, the National Enquirer’s executive editor until 2016, reminded them that Mr. Pecker wouldn’t allow it,” continued the WSJ.
“In time, AMI employees wouldn’t pitch any more critical articles about Mr. Trump, one of the ex-employees said,” according to the WSJ,
“which is how Mr. Trump became known within the company as a ‘FOP,’ or Friend of Pecker.”
That means at the time American Media paid McDougal for her story, they already had no intention to publish it because it could harm Trump.
During that period, Pecker was in frequent touch with Michael Cohen,
Trump’s personal attorney and “fixer” who arranged a separate $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels that fall, according to phone records that prosecutors have seen.
