Michael Cohen testified Monday that Donald Trump warned him that “just be prepared, there’s going to be a lot of women coming forward,” once Trump announced that he was running for president.

Cohen’s revelation came on his first day of testimony at Trump’s New York criminal hush money trial.

Once slavishly devoted to Trump as his personal lawyer and fixer, Cohen is now his avowed enemy and could be the key witness against him in the case.

The 57-year-old is set to tell jurors about how he paid porn star Stormy Daniels $130,000 shortly before the 2016 presidential election, in exchange for her silence about a one-night stand she had with Trump a decade earlier.

Trump’s reimbursement of Cohen for that payoff while he was serving in the White House is the basis for the Manhattan District Attorney’s case against the ex-president.
