USA.Michael Cohen publishes a book accusing Trump of being racist: "Tell me a country governed by blacks that is not done shit"
Michael Cohen, author of the latest Donald Trump biography, "Disloyal," describes a deceitful, liar, and racist president.
Cohen, former lawyer and "man for everything" for Trump, details in this book (on sale since yesterday in the US) the president's particular obsession with his predecessor, Barack Obama.
And, as several American media have pointed out, he even recalls the moment when Trump, in 2012, even hired an Obama double just to be able to fire him.
The moment was even videotaped and published by Breitbart News, the far-right outlet then run by Steve Bannon, Trump's former chief of strategy.
In fact, the initial intention was to air this parody at the 2012 Republican Convention, but it was not done because it was considered to be too controversial.
As Trump himself confessed in his day, Mitt Romney's team (who was named a Republican candidate that year), considered it inappropriate.
Now Cohen, a former Trump lawyer currently under house arrest after being sentenced in 2019 to three years in prison for lying in Congress - to protect Trump -, documentary falsification and tax fraud, details this episode in which Trump, sitting in front of a fake Obama says, "
You're fired!
", the well-known phrase that made him famous on his reality show 'The Apprentice'.
As evidence Cohen includes in the book an image in which Trump appears in his office in Trump Tower, facing a black man who looks like Obama.
On the desk of Trump, who was "just" a businessman then, are two books, one of them with Obama's name on the cover.
In the video, which imitates the sound effects of the 'The Apprentice' contest, Trump criticizes the fake Obama for his management as president, reproaches him for never "managing a company" and that unemployment has grown during his term, he asks who has hired him and
even criticizes his way of playing golf.
"You are a good speaker,
I like the way you speak,
" admits Trump, "but speaking is cheap, we have to have results," he continues, while blaming him that he has not carried out any of his electoral promises.
This 'theater' devised by Trump, which can still be seen on YouTube today, alternates with real images of some speeches and acts by Barack Obama or encounters between the then president of the United States and other international personalities, such as who in that At the time he was Russian Prime Minister
Dmitri Medvedev.
Precisely, if Obama represents everything Trump hates, his role model, his idol, according to Cohen, is Vladimir Putin, of whom, according to Cohen, the president of the United States admires practically everything: from his way of presiding to his wealth and, especially, his ability to control an entire country, from the press to the economy.
