Cohen Was Pissed About Not Being Chief Of Staff So He Purposely Triggered Trump By Meeting With Mark Cuban

The New York Daily News reports:

Upset he hadn’t gotten tapped for a White House post and desperate to get President Trump’s attention, Michael Cohen had breakfast with billionaire Trump critic Mark Cuban in Manhattan last year, ostensibly knowing that it would upset the President and result in a phone call, according to a report.

Turned out, Cohen was right, a person familiar with the matter told the Wall Street Journal on Thursday. After video surfaced of Cohen and Cuban exiting the upscale Landmarc restaurant on the Upper West Side on Nov. 9, Trump called his longtime personal fixer from the White House to complain, the source said.

Cuban says that Cohen alerted paparazzi to their meeting to ensure that Trump found out about it.
