Michael Cohen brings receipts and singles out rare two groups Trump has not attacked
Speaking with MSNBC's Ali Velshi on Saturday afternoon, former Donald Trump lawyer Michael Cohen made the case that his former boss is an equal opportunity offender of various groups and races in America with the notable exclusion of two that he won't mess with.
Joking with the host Cohen as they discussed the former president's most recent targets, Haitian immigrants living legally in Ohio, Cohen claimed he actually showed up with notes for the first time to make his case.
"You came with receipts about the number of groups, with the exception of one or two, that Donald Trump has insulted in his tenure of politics," host Velshi prompted his guest.
"Yeah, the only two I can think of are white supremacists, as well the evangelical groups," the former attorney replied. "Short of that, there's not a single group in America, whether it is veterans, firefighters, police officers, Blacks, Jews, Mexicans —I actually bought it, it is the first time being on any show I've actually brought notes with me, but women, Asian Americans, Latinos."

"I mean we can go on here: Muslims, disabled people, Native Americans, obviously the Haitian immigrants, African nations, handicapped journalists, Puerto Ricans — you name it," he elaborated. "The question I would sort of pose is: why are there any members of these communities that would possibly vote for him, or think that he is the right person for the job of the presidency of the United States of America again?"
