Former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen asks President Biden to pardon him he pardoned his son hunter Before President-elect Donald Trump was inaugurated.

Cohen discussed his efforts to secure a pardon from the Biden administration on MSNBC’s “Weekend” on Saturday morning. He claimed that if he was not granted a presidential pardon, he would continue to be “in danger” of being prosecuted by Trump.

Cohen believes Biden has an obligation to protect him and other critics from Trump, just as he protected his son Hunter.

“Yes, I applied for a presidential pardon because I believe Joe Biden owes me as much responsibility as he does his own son,” Cohen said. “I want me and anyone else on the enemy list to receive the same responsibility he has for me.” The same pardon for the son, whether they want it or not, because I guarantee you, solitary confinement, where I was for 51 days, sucks.”

MSNBC host Simone Sanders agreed with Cohen’s concerns about being put on Trump’s “enemies list,” but disagreed with the invocation of Hunter Biden.

“I mean, Hunter Biden is the last surviving son of the president,” Sanders said.

“I’m somebody’s son, too, by the way,” Cohen responded.

“Agreed. You’re someone’s son,” Sanders said. “But I mean, to be very clear, you’re not the president’s son. I think he pardoned Hunter primarily because that’s his son.”

Cohen insisted on how important it was to take Trump’s threats seriously.

“When Donald Trump turns his back, you have to take his word for it,” Cohen said. “So far, everything he’s said he’s going to do, he’s actually going to do. And he’s been doing it one by one. Now, it might not be all on day one like he said happens, but ultimately he will have more than four years to fill government positions with a whole group of people to help him achieve his goals.”

Cohen spent three years in prison federal crime Evading taxes, campaign finance violations and lying to Congress while working for Trump. He has since become an outspoken critic of the president-elect and testified against Trump in Alvin Bragg’s New York criminal case earlier this year.

Cohen also said in September that he had plans leave this country If Trump is re-elected.

“I’m already applying for a foreign passport with a completely different name. I don’t know what to do with my wife and kids. I certainly don’t want them to move to where I am now and want to leave,” Cohen said.
