During a recent interview, Michael Cohen, former attorney to President Trump, faced a series of questions regarding his stance on the legal proceedings involving the former president. The exchange between Cohen and interviewer Todd Blanch highlighted Cohen's reluctance to provide direct answers.
Blanch inquired about Cohen's statements on his podcast, where he allegedly expressed a desire to see President Trump convicted in a particular case. When asked if he had regularly commented on wanting Trump convicted, Cohen initially responded with uncertainty, stating, 'sounds like something I would say.'
Blanch pressed for a clear answer, asking Cohen if he indeed wished for Trump's conviction. Cohen eventually admitted, 'yeah, probably,' but continued to evade a definitive response. Blanch persisted, seeking a straightforward 'yes' or 'no' from Cohen regarding his desire for Trump's conviction.
Despite the repeated questioning, Cohen remained evasive, stating that he would like to see 'accountability' rather than explicitly confirming his wish for Trump's conviction. Blanch continued to press Cohen for a direct response, emphasizing the importance of a clear affirmation or denial.
The exchange culminated in Cohen reluctantly conceding, 'sure,' when directly asked if he wanted to see President Trump convicted in the case under discussion. The interview highlighted Cohen's hesitance to provide a straightforward answer to Blanch's inquiries regarding his stance on Trump's legal matters.
