Trump reacts to Michael Cohen saying he was pressured to turn on him

Donald Trump has reacted to his former attorney, Michael Cohen, saying that he felt “coerced” by New York prosecutors into providing negative testimony against the now-president.

“I felt pressured and coerced to only provide information and testimony that would satisfy the government’s desire to build the cases against and secure a judgment and convictions against President Trump,” Cohen wrote in a Friday post on Substack.

Trump reacted to Cohen’s comments via Truth Social, writing: “These horrible Radical Left people, doing everything possible to destroy our Country, should pay a big price for this!”

The president went on to call the investigations into him by Letitia James and Alvin Bragg a “SET UP from the beginning,” and said New York courts were “embarrassed by what has happened.”
