Michael Cohen addresses Trump interview backlash hours ahead of radio reunion

• Michael Cohen announced a sit-down interview with President Donald Trump on his WABC radio program, marking an unexpected reunion for the two men.
• In a lengthy post on Substack, Michael Cohen said on Thursday that he would have an “impossible reunion” with Trump, years after the close relationship between the two men collapsed amid a Department of Justice probe into Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.
• Addressing criticism from his supporters, Cohen stated he wants to explore whether their once-unbreakable relationship can survive their past conflicts. “After spending much of my life in the middle of political warfare, I tend to want to know exactly who is firing the bullets before I worry about the gun,” Cohen wrote.
• Cohen served as a key witness in major legal proceedings against Trump, including the hush money trial that resulted in 34 guilty verdicts.
• The broadcast follows a reported private meeting between the two men in the summer of 2025 at Trump's golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.
