Michael Cohen's daughter Samantha says Trump hit on her when she was 15, talks about his 'creepy' sexual comments
Disbarred lawyer and President Donald Trump's ex-attorney Michael Dean Cohen's book 'Disloyal: A Memoir: The True Story of the Former Personal Attorney to President Donald J. Trump' was published earlier this week. The book is packed with dramatic revelations about POTUS, the most startling of them being the time Cohen's then 15-year-old daughter Samantha was allegedly hit upon by the man who occupies the most powerful office in the country at the moment.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, 24-year-old Samantha broke her silence. "There are so many creepy men, and it was hardly the first comment like that I'd heard. It was almost meaningless to me at the moment because I’d heard them before," Samantha said admitting that she didn’t give too much thought to the comments but she also raised concerns about Trump holding office. "If you can hit on a 15-year-old, I am pretty sure there is something wrong with you, and when you allow someone with that little integrity to be in the most powerful office, that sets the tone for the rest of the country’s culture," she added.
Describing the alleged comments that were made in 2012 by Trump while Samantha was playing tennis, Michael wrote in 'Disloyal': "Look at that piece of a**… I would love a piece of that." The ex-lawyer also claims Trump said, "That’s your daughter? When did she get so hot?" before turning to Samantha and adding, "When did you get such a beautiful figure? You’re really grown up."
Recalling the incident, Samantha said that she has a completely different interpretation of that interaction with Trump. "Well, if you would have asked me, I would have given a different account… what I remember was Trump saying, 'Thank God she got those looks from her mother. She certainly didn’t get them from you.' That’s the part that stood out to me. I was not desensitized to someone putting down my dad and insulting him and degrading him. That was one of the reasons I hated Trump so much."
In the same interview, Samantha also added that Trump always found ways to hold her father back and undermine his successes. "It always felt like, God forbid my dad came close to not needing him. If my dad had any successes outside of the Trump Organization, Trump cut his bonus or cut his salary. He would find ways to undermine my dad in the office. Trump was holding him back. He had a twisted umbilical cord to Trump," she said.
