WASHINGTON _ Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's longtime lawyer, put some distance between himself and his former client in an interview published on Monday, implying that he wouldn't hesitate to cooperate with prosecutors even if that hurt the president.
"To be crystal clear, my wife, my daughter and my son, and this country have my first loyalty," he told ABC's George Stephanopoulos.
Although Cohen has not been charged, he's the subject of a criminal investigation by the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan. Federal agents seized thousands of records from his home, office and hotel room earlier this year, and Cohen is in the process of switching his legal team.
