The foreword for Michael Cohen’s book is out — and it contains allegations of deviant sex acts and a backchannel to Putin
President Donald Trump’s former “fixer” Michael Cohen was unfairly targeted by judges attempting to silence his tell-all book slated to be released before the election. However, Cohen prevailed and his new book Disloyal: A Memoir.
The true story of the former personal attorney to President Donald J. Trump is scheduled to be released by Oct. 6, according to Amazon, but Cohen had initially said he hoped to have it out by the end of September.
Cohen has already released the foreword of the book on the site for the book, which is getting so much traffic it keeps crashing.

“From golden showers in a sex club in Vegas, to tax fraud, to deals with corrupt officials from the former Soviet Union, to catch and kill conspiracies, to silencing Trump’s clandestine lovers, I wasn’t just a witness to the president’s rise—I was an active and eager participant,” it says, among other things.
He recalled his shocking and revealing testimony to Congress in which he outed the president for unethical and questionable behavior and urged others to rethink their support.
“To those who support the President and his rhetoric, as I once did, I pray the country doesn’t make the same mistakes as I have made or pay the heavy price that my family and I are paying,” Cohen recalled, “exhorting them to learn from my example.” |

Donald Trump is transfixed by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s money and power, and sought the Kremlin’s help in the 2016 election, Trump’s former personal attorney and “fixer” Michael Cohen claims in his upcoming book, which was obtained by The Washington Post.
Cohen also reveals in the wide-ranging expose that Trump was “well aware” of hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the last presidential campaign, according to the Post.
Also, Cohen exposes astonishing disparaging comments Trump made about his children — and minorities. He once described minorities as “not my people,” and said that Hispanics, “like the Blacks, ...are “too stupid to vote for Trump,” according to Cohen, the Post reports.
Trump also claimed that Nelson Mandela “ruined” South Africa and that it should have remained under white rule. “Mandela fucked the whole country up. Now it’s a shithole. Fuck Mandela. He was no leader,” Cohen claimed in the book, “Disloyal: A Memoir.”
“Tell me one country run by a black person that isn’t a shithole. They are all complete fucking toilets,” Cohen says Trump complained while ranting about former President Barack Obama.
Trump also called it “bullshit” when evangelical leaders gathered at the White House to lay hands on the president, Cohen said.
Cohen concedes that he was Trump’s “designated thug” and did his dirty work. He’s currently serving a three-year sentence (at home) for lying to Congress and campaign finance violations.
As for Putin, Cohen alleges that Trump made “overt and covert attempts to get Russia to interfere in the 2016 election” — though he offers no new details, according to the Post.
Trump’s infatuation with Putin sprang from his “love” of money, according to Cohen. He mistakenly identified Putin as “the richest man in the world,” Cohen writes. Trump also admired the Russian strongman because Putin had the ability “to take over an entire nation and run it like it was his personal company — like the Trump Organization, in fact,” according to Cohen.
Trump dreamed of a 120-story Trump Tower Moscow, and planned to give the penthouse apartment to Putin for free, in part “as a way to suck up” to the Russian leader, Cohen writes.
Cohen worked to nail down the deal even after Trump declared that he was running for president, he writes. He also claimed that first daughter Ivanka Trump, now a senior White House adviser, chose the decorator finishes for the tower.
“The whole idea of patriotism and treason became irrelevant in his mind,” Cohen writes. “Trump was using the campaign to make money for himself: Of course he was.”
Despite Trump’s currying favor with Putin, Cohen contends that it was an “insidious” and effective “disinformation campaign” from his supporters in America that helped him finally win the White House.
He points to David Pecker — Trump pal and CEO of National Enquirer parent company American Media — who took early action to bury the Daniels story. He also arranged to publish a false report that the father of Sen. Ted Cruz (D-Texas) was somehow mixed up in John F. Kennedy’s assassination, Cohen notes.
“It’s not real, right?” Trump asked before signing off on the story, according to Cohen.
The Enquirer went after every other one of Trump’s rivals in the fight to win the Republican presidential nomination, Cohen writes.

White House: Michael Cohen trying to profit from 'lies' with disparaging tell-all book
'Michael Cohen is a disgraced felon and disbarred lawyer, who lied to Congress,' press secretary Kayleigh McEnany says
By Evie Fordham | Fox News
It's interesting to note that among Michael Cohen's close personal friends is an anchor on the Cable News Network.
The White House said that former Trump attorney Michael Cohen is seeking to profit "off of lies" ahead of the publication of his book "Disloyal: A Memoir," which contains disparaging claims about President Trump, on Tuesday.
"Michael Cohen is a disgraced felon and disbarred lawyer, who lied to Congress," White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement to CNN. "He has lost all credibility, and it's unsurprising to see his latest attempt to profit off of lies."
Cohen claims that Trump views Russian President Vladimir Putin as a model leader, according to an excerpt of his book detailed by CNN.
"Locking up your political enemies, criminalizing dissent, terrifying or bankrupting the free press through libel lawsuits — Trump's all-encompassing vision wasn't evident to me before he began to run for president," Cohen writes. "I honestly believe the most extreme ideas about power and its uses only really took shape as he began to seriously contemplate the implications of taking power and how he could leverage it to the absolute maximum level possible."
Trump also hired an actor to impersonate former President Barack Obama and then "ritualistically belittled the first black president and then fired him" in a video, Cohen claims according to CNN.
The book makes several provocative and salacious claims about Cohen's time as Trump's go-to fixer and lawyer before he pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations over hush payments made to women during the 2016 election who alleged having affairs with the then-GOP candidate.
"The President of the United States wanted me dead," Cohen declared in the forward of his book released in August. "Or, let me say it the way Donald Trump would: He wouldn't mind if I was dead. That was how Trump talked. Like a mob boss, using language carefully calibrated to convey his desires and demands, while at the same time employing deliberate indirection to insulate himself and avoid actually ordering a hit on his former personal attorney, confidant, consigliere, and, at least in my heart, adopted son."
Cohen was released from prison in July and was expected to return to home confinement in his New York City apartment. |
