Michael Cohen is facing accusations that he may have lied to Congress during his testimony this week after a clip of a 2016 interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo resurfaced in which the former longtime lawyer to President Trump appeared to express interest in working for the White House.
Cohen told Cuomo in a November 2016 interview that he hadn't been offered a job in the White House at that time but that he "certainly hope[d]" he would be. Asked if he would take such a job if it were offered, Cohen replied "100 percent."
"Now, you just said something — 'if I go to Washington," Cuomo says in the video. "We're trying to figure out who's going to go,—" he continued, before Cohen interrupted to say he had not been asked.
