    Here's something that confuses me. If I were facing down certain huge legal bills and I were shacking up in a Manhattan hotel ... I'd move across the river, any river, to conserve cash.https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1013917765806231554 …

    Michael Cohen is "frustrated," a source tells Vanity Fair. "Washington is actively pushing him away as opposed to protecting him or welcoming him back in." "I have no one watching my back," Cohen has reportedly told friends. "I just did what I was told." https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2018/06/michael-cohen-identity …

        Imho Michael Cohen's interview with George Stephanopoulos came across as just another one of his fabulist cons.

        With his new interview, Cohen said on the record what he’s been saying privately to friends for months, partly because he no longer has a lawyer who wants him quiet, partly out of anticipation for an oncoming onslaught from Trump surrogates.

        Notice that when Cohen said he puts family and country first, he didn't say which country?

        Husband & I lived in our home while it was renovated. Personally, I wouldn't do it again. We were not facing huge legal bills, fines, and the possibility of decades in jail, along with asset forfeiture., divorce and all the good things that eventually comes to criminals.

        I don't trust that this Cohen vs Trump thing is legit. Trump isn't now losing his mind on twitter over this. Cohen's love of family & country didn't make him flip when docs were seized. Only after his & Trump lawyers won right to see docs did he flip. Feel like we're being played

        Time to accept that his fair-weather friends are just that. He’s as disposable as any other political fixer. Tough luck, kid. Time to do the right thing.

        Cohen himself will never pay those bills. The appearance of “business as usual” may be crucial to his ability to negotiate and maneuver, implying a lack of fear/abundance of resources.

        Cohen is your typical Upper East Sider. Upper East Siders don't ride the subway and they don't move across the river.
