He’s one of those people that always has to have the last word.

Edit:

In a post on his Truth Social platform Wednesday, Trump called his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, and the adult film actor Stormy Daniels “two sleaze bags who have, with their lies and misrepresentations, cost our Country dearly!”

Won’t someone rid me of this meddlesome priest?!

Edit 2: Sorry, the actual quote is, “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?”

I accidentally tried to upvote your comment twice. Once for each sentence as I finished them.

Yeah, I remember hearing some of the recordings of conversations he had with people Trump was defrauding. They were threats really. Very chilling behavior. I still don’t believe that he did a 180 degree turn around in his behavior out of altruism.

Michael Cohen indeed is two bags of sleaze
