Donald Trump’s ex-lawyer, Michael Cohen, relished the Georgia indictment of another former Trump lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.
What Happened: Cohen, who was sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to several felonies in 2018, reacted with joy to Giuliani’s indictment. “Karma boomerang is a b**ch!” Cohen told Insider.
Giuliani, a former New York mayor, is charged with RICO violations and other crimes related to Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.

Responding to Cohen’s comments, Ted Goodman, a political advisor to Giuliani, described Cohen’s statement as “clearly deranged” and expressed hope that Cohen gets the help he needs.
Cohen asserted that Trump is disturbed by Giuliani’s indictment but not enough to cover Giuliani’s legal fees. Cohen had previously accused Trump of abandoning him when he was first criminally indicted in 2018.
The indictment could potentially impact Trump's prospective 2024 election run. Meanwhile, John Alite, a former mafia hitman, has criticized the indictment, arguing that Trump and Giuliani made “pro-America choices,” unlike his own past criminal actions.
The defendants are required to surrender in Georgia by Aug. 25, with a trial planned within the next six months.
