Trump Pushes to Dismiss Cases Over Cohen Claims | US News
Description
Trump’s legal team is pushing to dismiss New York’s civil fraud and criminal cases against him, citing Michael Cohen’s alleged recantation — claiming Cohen was pressured into false testimony. Trump publicly thanked Cohen for stepping forward, while Cohen himself has repeatedly accused AG Letitia James and Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg of coercing his cooperation. Though Cohen hasn’t formally retracted sworn statements, his public claims have fueled Trump’s legal strategy. Trump’s team recently filed a motion to preserve any communications between prosecutors and Cohen, just before Trump’s social media blitz. Notably, the two men have since appeared to reconcile — with Trump even guesting on Cohen’s radio show — as Cohen continues to allege he was forced to testify in ways that served the prosecution’s narrative.
