Politico reports:
President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Guiliani on Sunday said it’s “possible” that president spoke to his former attorney Michael Cohen ahead of his congressional testimony. “Which would be perfectly normal,” Guiliani told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “So what?”
“As far as I know, President Trump did not have discussions with him,” he added. “Certainly no discussions with him in which he told him or counseled him to lie. If he had any discussions with him, they’d be about the version of the events that Michael Cohen gave them which they all believe was true.”
