At hearing, Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen attacks President Trump over WikiLeaks, calls him 'racist' and 'conman' Watch live:
The president, who has denied any collusion between his campaign and Moscow, has called the Mueller investigation a “witch hunt” and has called Cohen a liar trying to reduce his prison time and a “rat.”
Trump has previously denied knowing in advance about the WikiLeaks release of Democratic National Committee emails during the election. Stone was indicted by Mueller on charges of lying to Congress about his communications with others related to WikiLeaks email dumps. Cohen, 52, was one of Trump’s closest aides and fiercest defenders, working with him on business and personal deals for a decade. But he turned against him last year and is cooperating with prosecutors after pleading guilty to tax evasion, bank fraud and campaign finance violations.
Cohen said Trump on multiple occasions inquired about the project while telling the public he had no business dealings in Russia, a falsehood Cohen said reflected Trump’s view that the campaign was aimed only at building his brand.
