Michael Cohen resigns from RNC, slams Trump's 'family separation policy'

Michael Cohen, President Trump’s longtime personal lawyer, stepped down as one of the Republican National Committee’s deputy finance chairs on Wednesday, citing the federal investigations and criticizing the Trump administration’s zero tolerance approach to illegal immigration that has resulted in family separations.

“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,” Cohen wrote in his resignation letter to RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, reviewed by ABC News.
