So Cohen doesn't work for Trump Org; he's not on Trump's Russia-probe legal team; but Trump *really* wants to be sure you know that Cohen is his attorney. Is he just underscoring his belief anything he ever said to Cohen is privileged? If not, what is Cohen representing Trump on?
2/ If Cohen doesn't represent Trump on anything having to do with the Trump Organization—and doesn't represent Trump in his current role as president—what exactly is his role? And if it's just to pay off porn stars and intimidate Trump's enemies, how is that legal representation?
3/ Is it unreasonable for a reporter to ask Trump, "In what way has Mike Cohen been providing you with legal representation since January 2017, such that you'd call him—in the present tense—'my attorney'"? I think Trump is betraying some Mueller-related nervousness here, frankly.
4/ I think—in view of the evidence we have, and Trump's statements—it's now valid to ask the president this question: "What *exactly* are you paying Michael Cohen for right now? What non-Trump Org, non-POTUS legal services do you require that he's currently fulfilling for a fee?"
