Michael Cohen, former longtime personal attorney to Donald Trump, on Sunday warned Elon Musk that the president isn’t done with him yet.
“They’re going to really go after Elon Musk like nobody has seen, ever, in this country because they can,” he said on MSNBC on Saturday. “And one thing Elon doesn’t understand is this political guerrilla warfare that they’re going to conduct against him.”
Cohen warned that Trump can use the power of government to target Musk’s companies and even his citizenship.
Musk and Trump last week had a spectacularly public falling out, and over the weekend the president slammed his one-time pal as “very disrespectful” and warned him of “serious consequences” if he supported Democrats.
Cohen said that while Trump has also downplayed the feud, the president is likely already plotting against the billionaire behind the scenes.
“I just wish him well,” Trump said on Friday.
“No he doesn’t,” Cohen said. “Because while Elon Musk is taking a step back thinking Trump is taking a step back, what Trump is actually doing is weaponizing the Department of Justice through his attorney general and other people, and they are gonna drop the hammer on him out of nowhere when he least expects it. That’s the playbook.”
