Michael Cohen says he thinks Rudy Giuliani's legal problems will go beyond the Ukraine dealings

'because Rudy is actually a stupid guy'

Michael Cohen said he thinks the legal problems facing Rudy Giuliani will go beyond the investigation into his Ukraine dealings.

FBI agents raided the office and apartment of Rudy Giuliani, former President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, on Wednesday as part of an investigation into whether he broke foreign-lobbying laws in his dealings with Ukraine.

Cohen, who previously served as Trump's lawyer and fixer, told MSNBC on Thursday that he thinks Giuliani's legal problems will mount further.

"It may start with just the Ukraine. But that's not where it's gonna stop. Because Rudy is actually a stupid guy. Rudy has no idea about technology," he said.

'Rudy's an idiot' who 'drinks too much': Michael Cohen relishes Giuliani's legal woes and predicts he'll flip on Trump

Donald Trump's former longtime lawyer who is serving out a sentence for an array of crimes didn't mince words Thursday when reacting to news that the former president's current lawyer Rudy Giuliani was facing mounting legal troubles of his own.

"Two things came straight to mind," Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen told CNN's Alisyn Camerota in an interview. "The first is that I'm no longer the only one. And two, my parents always told me it's not nice to gloat, but, Rudy, I told you so. I told you so!"

Cohen was responding to the FBI executing search warrants on Giuliani's home and office on Wednesday and seizing his electronic devices as well as a computer belonging to his personal assistant, Jo Ann Zafonte. Zafonte was served with a grand-jury subpoena, and The New York Times reported that federal agents also raided the Washington, DC, home of Victoria Toensing, a fellow lawyer and associate of Giuliani's.

The raids are said to be part of a wide-ranging investigation by the US attorney's office in the Southern District of New York into whether Giuliani broke foreign-lobbying laws in his dealings with Ukraine.
