Question: Does Cohen have any other clients besides tRump?

[flibbitygiblets]

I get the impression that Cohen's like the consigliere in "the Godfather" movies, he's like family and doesn't have any other clients. If so, the likelihood is very high that today's FBI raid was really about tRump's crimes as much as Cohen's.

Except that Cohen's also the Deputy Finance Chair of the RNC; so it could also go in that direction. Thoughts?

1. I don't think so. Somebody said on MSNBC that the Trump Org and Spanky himself

were Cohen's only clients.

2. Former U.S. Senator Torricelli of NJ

stated on Ari's show that Trump is Cohen's only client.

Torricelli seemed to know this because he stated that at one time Trump was NJ's largest employer.

Fox News explains exactly why the Michael Cohen raid should terrify Donald Trump
Attorney-client privilege doesn't apply if there's "a serious allegation of illegal activity."

On Monday, FBI agents raided the office and residences of Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s longtime personal attorney. The search warrants reportedly included conversations between Cohen and Trump, who has been Cohen’s only client for years.

The search reportedly included, possibly among other things, documents related a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels, which Cohen made just days before the 2016 election. Daniels, an adult film actress, says she had an affair with Trump in 2006.

But it was the approval of the search warrants themselves that should terrify Trump. The best explanation, remarkably, came from Andrew Napolitano, a Fox News legal analyst. Napolitano explained that, under normal circumstances, communications between Trump and his attorney are privileged. But this privilege does not apply if there is “a serious allegation of illegal activity, by the lawyer with the client,” he said.

“There must be some evidence presented to a federal judge here in New York City sufficient to persuade that judge to sign a search warrant to permit the FBI in broad daylight to raid an attorney’s office, particularly when that attorney has one client and it happens to be the president of the United States,” Napolitano told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto.

So it looks like trump is the only "client" shitting his pants right now, since Cohen may not have any other official clients.

5. Like Bruce Cutler and John Gotti

I'm sure Don picked up a few pointers living within spitting distance of Gotti in the 90's. Have an attorney on a leash at all times.
