Jim Jordan says Michael Cohen is Clinton ‘patsy’ to impeach Trump

Published



Republican Rep. Jim Jordan charged Wednesday that President Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen’s public testimony to the House Oversight Committee was a setup orchestrated by Lanny Davis, a former spokesman and lawyer to former President Bill Clinton, in a plot to impeach Trump.

Davis has served as Cohen’s attorney and adviser in recent months. Jordan, R-Ohio, said it was not a coincidence that “the first announced witness for the 116th Congress is a guy who is going to prison in two months for lying to Congress.”
