Trump says his former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen 'directly asked me for a pardon'

President Donald Trump claimed that his former personal lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen last year "directly asked me for a pardon." "Bad lawyer and fraudster Michael Cohen said under sworn testimony that he never asked for a Pardon. His lawyers totally contradicted him," Trump tweeted. "He lied! Additionally, he directly asked me for a pardon. I said NO. He lied again! He also badly wanted to work at the White House. He lied!"
