Cohen: "...children should never be used as bargaining chips."

Michael Cohen in his resignation letter as Deputy Finance Chair at RNC.

"This important role requires the full time attention and dedication of each member. Given the ongoing Mueller and SDNY investigations, that simply is impossible for me to do,” he wrote.

This is his signal to TRump: game on. It is his middle-finger divorce decree to 45.

and is Cohen's friend and just spoke with him. Is sounds like it from what he DIDN'T say...he was careful with every word he spoke and kept saying, "This is MY opinion, NOT what Michael is going to do.....".

Wasn't just a few short months ago that Michael Cohen said he'd take a bullet for Donald Trump? Always hard to see old friends fight like this. I hope they can patch things together, but it will probably take something $pecial to do that . . .
