During the ongoing legal proceedings involving former President Donald Trump, new revelations have emerged regarding the role of his personal attorney, Michael Cohen, in 2017. Trump's attorney, Emil Bove, presented emails from Cohen that shed light on his position as the 'Personal attorney to President Donald J Trump.'
One significant detail highlighted by Bove was Cohen's signature block, which notably did not refer to him as a 'fixer.' This distinction is crucial in understanding the nature of Cohen's relationship with Trump during that time.
Jeffrey McConney, who was part of the proceedings, confirmed that the signature block did not include the term 'fixer,' indicating a more formal legal role for Cohen in relation to Trump.
Furthermore, McConney also verified that Cohen had sent invoices using a personal Gmail account rather than a Trump Organization email address. This detail suggests that Cohen was essentially operating as a vendor to the Trump Organization, rather than as an internal employee or staff member.
These revelations provide insight into the dynamics of the relationship between Michael Cohen and Donald Trump in 2017, highlighting the specific nature of Cohen's role as Trump's personal attorney. The use of a personal email account for official communications and invoicing adds a layer of complexity to the situation, raising questions about the extent of Cohen's involvement with the Trump Organization at that time.
