Trump Appears To Blame Sessions For Campaign Finance Charges Against Cohen

Donald Trump speaks to Fox News' Ainsley Earhardt on Aug. 22, 2018

“He had a different attorney general, and they viewed it a lot differently,” Trump said, raising eyebrows on whether he blames his favorite punching bag, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, for the campaign finance charges against Michael Cohen.
