The fixer is there.
Donald Trump’s disgraced former lawyer Michael Cohen is looking for a television show that could allow him to cash in on the renewed publicity sparked by the candidate’s legal woes.
The show would be called “The Fixer” — a reference to Cohen’s time working as Trump’s bare-knuckle lawyer and an imitation of Trump’s turn in “The Apprentice” — and would involve Cohen being put in business and in other scenarios so he can “fix it”. “them,” insiders told the Post.
Cohen confirmed the show’s premise and told the Post that the ideas were still “at a very early stage.”
“Someone came up with the idea for the concept and we shot a three-minute teaser for it.” Cohen said.
Cohen said he was working with Colin Whelan of Conveyor Media, whose past credits include “Joe Exotic: Tigers, Lies and Cover-Up” for Investigation Discovery; “Cooking On High” for Netflix; and “Bargain Mansions” for HGTV.
“He’s part of that whole shopping team,” Cohen said of Whelan.
Reached by phone, Whelan refuted: “We don’t really all work together anymore. »
Cohen — who was sentenced to three years in federal prison in 2018 after pleading guilty to charges of campaign finance fraud and tax evasion — is set to play a star role in Trump’s ongoing trial in Manhattan.
Cohen played a key role in alleged secret payments to porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign to silence her about an affair with Trump, authorities said.
The former president has always denied the affair and any wrongdoing.
