The former lawyer for Michael Cohen said Wednesday that people who were associated with the Trump campaign should be worried when it comes to the Russia investigation.
Lanny Davis appeared on MSNBC shortly after Cohen was handed a three-year prison sentence for tax evasion and other federal charges.
"If I were Mr. Trump, I'd be nervous about that," Davis said.
Regarding Trump's children, Davis said they might not be safe from special counsel Robert Mueller's probe either.
"I would say they have a lot to worry about. Anybody associated with the Trump campaign has a lot to worry about.
"Bob Mueller, who's akin to a submarine, silently fueled by facts and only facts with no leaks, and just watch and wait. And that's what Mr. Cohen will do and then Michael will tell the truth once Mueller is finished with his work."
Later in a statement sent to The Hill, Davis said Cohen will speak publicly about what he knows regarding President Donald Trump and his dealings with the man for whom he worked from 2006 to earlier this year.
"At the appropriate time . . . I look forward to assisting Michael to state publicly all he knows about Mr. Trump — and that includes any appropriate Congressional committee interested in the search for truth and the difference between facts and lies," Davis said.
