Former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski spoke out about President Donald Trump’s former attorney and fixer Michael Cohen on Sunday, reports The Hill.

An Overview of Lewandowski’s Statements

During a Fox News interview, Lewandowski shared his thoughts about the multiple charges against Cohen. First, he stated that Cohen’s alleged crimes have no connection to the president or his businesses.

“What Cohen has now pled guilty to has nothing to do with the Trump campaign or the Trump Organization,” he said.

Fox News host Martha MacCallum asked Lewandowski whether he attempted to keep Cohen away from then-candidate Trump.

“Michael was very good at certain things,” Lewandowski responded. “One of the things he was very good at, and we have now seen it, is intimidating people.”

Lewandowski furthermore stated that he disliked and distrusted Cohen during the 2016 election.

“I didn’t like to work with Michael,” he said. “I didn’t like to interact with Michael. That’s why he had no role in the campaign, even when he wanted one.”
