Michael Cohen Says Trump Has More Top-Secret Documents, Even Hidden at His Kids’ Houses

By

Yes, it took an arrest and prosecution to get Michael Cohen to see the light and turn on Trump. Many defendants feign regret and tell a judge that they’re very sorry and have learned a valuable lesson. But many are sincere. Michael Cohen’s sincerity has been palpable. He has been brave in the face of threats, and he has also been disturbingly right in many of his predictions regarding Trump’s behavior and habits.

So when Cohen assures the country that Trump has more Top-Secret documents spread over many areas, there’s a good chance that there are more invaluable files out there. From Yahoo News:

Michael Cohen, who was once former President Donald Trump’s lawyer, believes Trump likely has copies of the classified documents the FBI seized from Mar-a-Lago stashed in other locations.

Cohen was reacting on Twitter to an article from The Washington Post on the Department of Justice’s recent court filing, in which the DOJ suggested that Trump’s team may have concealed or moved top-secret files when officials were probing the matter.

“I believe Trump has copies, potentially other documents as well, at other locations including his children’s homes, Weisselberg’s florida home, Bedminster, NJ golf course, Fifth Avenue apartment, etc…” Cohen tweeted.

If Trump really was collecting Top-Secret/SCI documents, the most secret information in the world, to sell secrets for his financial benefit, then it is absolutely within the realm of possibility that he would store documents at his kids’ homes, though probably not at Ivanka’s. She and Jared are likely too smart to take that risk, and Trump would probably be unwilling to put Ivanka in such a situation.

But Eric and Don Jr.? Very possible. One would also want to look at Melania’s parents’ house. This sounds all too possible.
