And Mr. Giuliani’s statement comes as the White House is seeking to undermine Mr. Cohen’s credibility on a wide range of issues after his scathingly critical testimony about Mr. Trump on Capitol Hill last week.
“I always gave one answer, and they always left disappointed,†Mr. Giuliani said.
Mr. Giuliani said he could not confirm that such a conversation took place with lawyers for Mr. Cohen, citing attorney-client privilege. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/06/us/politics/giuliani-trump-pardons.htmlWell, the problem is, Trump has said Cohen asked him directly. If this occurred before June 2018, Cohen was still the president's attorney. The client controls privilege, which Trump obviously just waived, by mentioning it. So, if they really want the DOJ to investigate this for perjury, guess who just made himself a witness, who would have to make a statement under oath?
