The claim features in 'The Fixers,' a new book about President Donald Trump's relationships with former attorneys and advisers.
In recent years, Trump was sometimes"sentimental" about Cohn, the book says, noting to his campaign adviser Roger Stone, who also knew Cohn well, after winning the presidency:"We sure miss Roy, don't we?"
"This one perhaps was evoked by the resort and Cohn's last visit there, a few months before he died of AIDS. Trump recalled to his guests that after Cohn had left, 'I had to spend a fortune to fumigate all the dishes and silverware.'""Though he'd been dead for thirty years, Roy Cohn's legacy had shadowed Donald Trump as he sought and then won the presidency," the book says.
"A narrative began to take shape: Trump had adapted Cohn's gutter philosophy to his own purposes. Cohn had taught him how to get in the mud, bend the truth to his whims, and declare victory despite all evidence to the contrary.
