Michael Avenatti: Trump’s Lawyer Troubles Are Because He Trusted His Secrets ‘to a Moron’ (Video)
On Wednesday’s episode of “The Late Show,” Michael Avenatti told Stephen Colbert that if Donald Trump is in a bad spot because of his former lawyer’s legal problems, that’s his own fault. Or as Avenatti put it, it’s “what happens when you trust your inner-most secrets to a moron.”
Earlier Wednesday, ABC reported that Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen has lost his legal defense team, and might cooperate with the ongoing Mueller investigation. Shocking no one, Colbert brought that up quickly when talking to Avenatti, who was a guest on “The Late Show” alongside former Trump White House employee Anthony Scaramucci.
“There are rumors that he’s going to flip or that he’s about to be arrested,” Colbert said.
