President Trump lashed out at his former lawyer Michael Cohen on Wednesday after Cohen released a tape on which the two discuss buying the story of a woman who said she had an affair with Trump. His current lawyer denies that payment took place.

“What kind of lawyer would tape a client?” Trump asked in a Twitter post on Wednesday.
