President Donald Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen is siding with the intelligence community against his ex-boss, who met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Helsinki on Monday.

President Donald Trump is taking a much tougher line on Russian President Vladimir Putin in a new television interview than he did just days ago in Helsinki at Putin's side.

It was revealed that President Donald Trump could be heard discussing payment for Playboy model Karen McDougal’s story about her alleged affair with him with his lawyer Michael Cohen.

Answering charges that he is only targeting a list of his political opponents, Trump claimed he 'would put a Republican on, too, if I thought they were incompetent or crazy.'

President Trump added the accusation that special counsel Robert Mueller and his team 'are enjoying ruining people’s lives and REFUSE to look at the real corruption on the Democrat side.'

Lanny Davis, lawyer for former Trump fixer Michael Cohen, said during an interview on CNN Tuesday that his client may have information related to Russian meddling.

President Trump penned the tweet after what many had called the darkest day of his presidency following the guilty verdict against Paul Manafort and the guilty plea by Michael Cohen.

Mueller has not responded to a weeks-old letter from Trump's legal team, suggesting the president's testimony isn't needed or investigators are tracking down new leads.

George Papadopoulos. who tired to arrange a meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, said his testimony could help prove collusion.

President Trump is using the strong performance of the American economy as a weapon against Democrats, claiming growth would not be so high if they had won the 2016 election.

In a tweet on Tuesday night, Trump accused the Democrats of deliberately obstructing his latest nomination of Brett Kavanaugh who has been accused of sexual assault.

Donald Trump's former fixer details in a 20-page statement his regret at working for the now president - and provides a jaw-dropping account of lies, cheating, racism and possible criminality.

Cohen revealed that he hunted for a rumored tape of the president hitting Melania Trump – footage that he believes does not exist – and gave Democrats a reason to subpoena Trump's taxes.

So it was all fake news…The entire two-year Russia collusion frenzy was based on an absolute falsehood that Donald Trump and his team had colluded with Russians to fix the 2016 election.
