The president, Donald Trump has asked a sentence “full and complete” for their exabogado Michael Cohen, who last week pleaded guilty, before a court of Manhattan, for having lied to Congress to conceal the true scope of the business of Trump in Moscow during his campaign for the presidential elections that brought him to the White House two years ago. The president interferes in a judicial process underway against his former faithful collaborator, who seeks to reduce his eventual sentence citing his cooperation in the investigation of special prosecutor Robert Mueller, who is investigating the interference of russia in the elections of 2016 and the possible coordination of the Kremlin with the campaign of the now president. Cohen, on which it is expected that the judges dictate sentence on the 12th of December, also had been convicted in August of tax evasion and illegal financing of the campaign, among other charges.
“Michael Cohen asks the judge not to convict in prison. Do you want to say that you can do all of those TERRIBLE things (…) and not pay with a long sentence of imprisonment?”, it asked the president in his usual round of tweets morning. “He lied (…) and should, in my opinion, serve a sentence in full and complete,” added Trump. It is, to say the least, unusual that a president makes comments of that tenor on an ongoing judicial process.
