Michael Cohen’s lawyer Lanny Davis said Wednesday on NBC that his client is not expecting, and would not accept, a pardon from President Donald Trump.
“Not only is he not hoping for it, he would not accept a pardon. He considers a pardon from somebody who has acted so corruptly as President to be something he would never accept,” Davis said.
On Tuesday, Cohen pleaded guilty to eight counts after reaching an agreement with federal prosecutors from the Southern District of New York.

Oh, you bet he would !
Well, after implicating Trump in court, no.
my money is on that he would take whatever he could get by way of pardon or commutation, albeit grudgingly.
I really hope he’s preparing to sing for his supper, and maybe not need a pardon… I’d be happy with him serving a few years in a not so savage pokey if it meant that trump got absolutely destroyed by what he knows.
He seems like one of two guys who know where every body is buried, so cheep cheep lil’ mischa.
What an honorable man!
