Ex-Trump fixer portrayed as greedy and an opportunist
Michael Cohen is set for sentencing this week
US President Donald Trump yesterday renewed his call to end a probe into Russian election meddling, describing the investigation as a "witch hunt" a day after US prosecutors detailed a previously unknown attempt by a Russian to help his 2016 presidential election campaign.
"Time for the Witch Hunt to END!" Trump said in a message on Twitter. His tweet also quoted TV host Geraldo Rivera, a Trump friend, dismissing any claim of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia as "collusion illusion".
