"Trump Never Called Me Again" - Michael Cohen BREAKS DOWN The Raid That Ended EVERYTHING

31 Jan 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: When did Michael Cohen's communication with Trump come to an end?

0.031 - 9.927 Unknown

From there on, what I'm trying to find out is did you approach him? Did you talk to him? How sudden was the fall of communication with him, the late night, the early calls, or was it still going on?

0

10.007 - 12.03 Michael Cohen

That's still taking place. That stopped.

0

12.33 - 19.702 Unknown

So when is the last time you spoke to him? The day after the raid. The last time you spoke to him is the day after the raid? The day after the raid. You've never spoken to him since?

0

19.822 - 21.184 Michael Cohen

The day after the raid.

0

21.365 - 24.79 Unknown

Got it. Okay. So you called him or he called you?

24.77 - 31.557 Michael Cohen

I called him to let him know I was raided by the FBI, which I found to be unusual.

Chapter 2: What was Michael Cohen's reaction to the FBI raid?

32.678 - 50.878 Michael Cohen

Even back then, Trump didn't fully appreciate the power of the presidency, but people still feared him because he was getting rid of people left and right. Remember how many people got shit-canned to begin with?

0

52.647 - 67.968 Michael Cohen

You're going to really tell me that the FBI was raiding the home, hotel, and law office of the personal attorney to the president of the United States and nobody had the decency to tell the president that this was going to happen? Why did he allow that to happen?

0

69.19 - 91.685 Unknown

Can I speculate? You can. Okay, so if you're in a position like that, and he has a lot of people that are in his ear, right? If you're in a position like that and there's a lot of people in his ear, And I've gone through this before. I've gone through it closely. Of course, on a much smaller scale in a business where you're like, wait a minute, who is on my side right now?

0

91.705 - 105.021 Unknown

That guy used to be on my side. But why are you protecting that guy now? Used to say this. Now you're getting a little too cocky because we're getting so much attention. You're walking around like you run this place and you look at me in a certain way. Don't look at me like that.

0

Chapter 3: Why did Trump not inform Cohen about the FBI raid?

105.061 - 130.495 Unknown

You never looked at me like that before. Don't get too comfortable. And there's a certain level of expectation to maintain that energy of respect to know he's it, right? The power struggle. He's trying to learn everybody. He's trying to study everybody. As that is happening, don't you think there's a part of it where to say, okay, he's going through a season that...

0

130.593 - 148.758 Unknown

He went into a world that he doesn't know this world yet. It's his first term. He's much better now. I mean, he knows what he's doing now with his third term, whatever you want to call it. Of course, those four years he was off, he learned a lot. He has an advantage because at that fourth year of being off, everybody came and gave him so much information to prepare for this.

0

148.778 - 151.842 Michael Cohen

Let's at least acknowledge it's his second term, not his third.

0

151.822 - 153.204 Unknown

For sure it is. It's a second term.

0

153.224 - 156.61 Michael Cohen

Because otherwise that would make this term unconstitutional. No, no, no. This is a second term.

156.63 - 172.954 Unknown

What I'm saying is that Fourier was a very good break of getting smarter. I think he has a competitive advantage over his peers. But don't you think while you're in that moment, like there's a little bit of saying... And maybe he's going through a season. Let me see what he's going through. Instead of, nope, I'm out.

172.974 - 187.074 Michael Cohen

Yeah, that's not how it happened. You see, what you're doing is you're creating a break in a timeline. I didn't break the timeline. The people, the enablers, the sycophants that were around him are the ones who did it.

187.414 - 190.218 Unknown

Who are some of the names? Jay Sekulow. Okay, who else?

190.238 - 193.843 Michael Cohen

In my book, Revenge, Jared Kushner.

Chapter 4: Who were the key players influencing Trump's decisions?

302.977 - 326.572 Michael Cohen

He may not have went out and purchased the gun and the ammunition. That was given to him by his enablers. But he was the one pulling the trigger because as president of the United States, he had the power. To do what I asked him. I pleaded. I begged him. Just shut this shit down. Nothing good is going to come out of this. They're going to come after both of us.

0

327.233 - 332.119 Michael Cohen

And we're both going to get hurt from it. And you know what? Sadly, I was correct.

0

333.401 - 335.063 Unknown

Let me ask you. Let's role play.

0

335.083 - 339.388 Michael Cohen

But let me go one step further. Can I go one step back even further? I wouldn't change anything.

0

339.408 - 347.455 Unknown

Okay, but let's play something else out. Okay? Let's play it out. You don't do what you did. Where are you at today in 26?

347.615 - 374.899 Michael Cohen

Broke, on the street, no wife, children hating me. That's where I was. You see, people have me all wrong. I heard all this crap, you know, Trump made you. Shitheads, I retired at the age of 39. I didn't need to work for Donald Trump. I wanted. When he offered me that job, which came out of the blue, I didn't put in an application. I was in the office.

375.259 - 394.35 Michael Cohen

He asked me to help him with a matter, a matter that dealt with the casinos. And, of course, I had done several of the legal matters for him as well prior to that. And he was like, you happy at that sleepy old firm that you're at? It was at one of the oldest law firms in America, Phillips and Iser. I was a partner at the firm. He's like, yeah, I don't really work too hard.

394.571 - 415.656 Michael Cohen

I'm doing just fine, having a great time, great life. He said, why don't you come work for me? I'll give you Ivanka's office. They just built on the 25th floor. You'd be right next to me. You'd be my personal attorney, my special counsel. I was like, huh, a guy who I admired tremendously. He's offering me a job. I didn't expect it.

415.676 - 435.566 Michael Cohen

Actually, I expected to get paid for the work that I did on Trump. I was waiting for a check. And when I asked him for the check, humorously, he turned and he goes, you want to get fired on the first day? I was like, okay. And I accepted the job. And I don't look back. nor do I look back with the NDAs and so on. I don't look back at any of that.

Chapter 5: What role did loyalty play in Cohen's relationship with Trump?

543.292 - 559.6 Michael Cohen

I wasn't about to go close. I valued the Trump brand for what it was. And I was getting a very good deal, price per square foot, and it was an investment. That's it. And I rented the apartment. I didn't live there. I rented it. Two others. Excuse me?

0

559.62 - 560.321 Unknown

Two others.

0

Chapter 6: How did Cohen feel about Trump's enablers?

560.942 - 566.67 Michael Cohen

Generally, I rented them to ambassadors and to consulates. Because it's right across the street from the United Nations.

0

566.77 - 568.933 Unknown

06, when you guys got close, how did it happen?

0

569.474 - 594.217 Michael Cohen

So what happened is he had had a battle, a dispute with the board at that building. And Don Jr. had said, hey, there's a guy who I know, Michael. He has an apartment in that building. But his parents, his in-laws, his friends, there's a whole group of them. You should really speak to him. He's kind of sharp elbowed, right? He may be the right guy for you to talk about this.

0

594.237 - 596.183 Unknown

Junior's selling this to Pops. Correct. Okay.

0

596.664 - 609.37 Michael Cohen

And I met Junior because I had just bought apartments in a different building that I... had combined together for my primary residence. And that's where Don Jr., he was doing the construction.

610.011 - 625.354 Unknown

Got it. Okay, so today, Michael, so you're saying I would have done it the same way all over again if I wouldn't have, if I would have stayed the same, I would have been broke today, not married, family, all this stuff that you're talking about, that the situation wouldn't be good for you today. You believe that? I do. Okay.
