Michael Cohen says Trump won't pursue a 2024 White House bid, calls his 'Big Lie' fundraising appeals 'the greatest grift in US history'

Michael Cohen said on Sunday that Donald Trump wouldn't run for president in 2024.

During an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press," Cohen, a former Trump aide-turned-critic, told host Chuck Todd that the ex-president's efforts to secure political donations as he dangles another campaign in front of his supporters was being done "to keep the

He said that it should be called the greatest grift in US history. Donald Trump has made it clear that he is not going to be a good president, that he is going to be a bad president, that he is going to be a bad president, that he is going to be a bad president.

"It's amazing that people don't know what the guy is doing," he said.

Cohen describes what he thinks is Trump's calling card.

He said that he talked about his "sociopathic" throughout his memoir. I talk about it on my show.

This is important for all of the viewers as well. Donald Trump has been upset about the election being stolen from him in 2020. It was not taken from him.

Cohen said that if the former president lost a bid, his claims wouldn't stand up, but that Trump was using the specter of a campaign to continue airing his grievances.

What happens to the 'Big Lie' if he loses? The big lie is no longer there. He can't be like the boy who cried wolf. They stole it from me in 2020 and then in 2024. Right? He said that the former president's claims would go out the door.

There is a big grift. It's not going to happen. He's going to run it like he did in 2011.

Trump said earlier this month that he would probably reveal his decision on running for president after the elections in 2022.

The ex-president is playing an active role in the Republican primary campaigns of the year in which he will be leaving office, trying to help preferred candidates in Senate races while pushing other candidates to run for elected positions.

Cohen said in a September interview with Insider that Trump would continue to rake in money from his supporters while soaking up the spotlight.

He said at the time that his need for attention was one of the reasons he continued to flaunt his run. He's making more money doing that than he has ever done before.

The New York Times reported in July that Trump had raised over 100 million dollars in the first six months of the year, a total that surpassed every other Republican.

In December of last year, Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to financial crimes and lying to Congress.
