Cohen lawyer backtracking



In closed-door meetings with the House and Senate intelligence committees last year, Trump’s former personal lawyer testified that he had no foreknowledge of the meeting and didn’t know if Trump did either, sources told Axios.

CNN reported last month that Cohen was willing to testify to special counsel Robert Mueller that Trump knew in advance of the meeting, during which the Russian lawyer offered “dirt” on then-candidate Hillary Clinton.

When The Post called Cohen’s lawyer, Lanny Davis, at the time to confirm the report, he said as an anonymous source that it was accurate.

But Thursday, Davis, speaking on the record, apologized for confirming something he did not know to be true.

[...]

“I’m sorry that I left that impression. I wasn’t at the meeting. The only person who could confirm that information is my client.”

Is Cohen going to waffle on that?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
