No. First twenty-five seconds and I see where this is going.
Cohen (and also his attorney) strongly implied Trump knew about the secret meeting with the Russian government employees. In fact, they hinted he knew about it in advance. There was even discussion about a planning meeting where it was discussed. CNN - and all of the other news agencies - reported this. Now Cohen (and his attorney) seem to be back tracking.
This doesn't mean that the reporting was incorrect or misleading. The reports were based on on what they knew at the time.
Also, the fact that Cohen (and his attorney) seem to be back tracking surely doesn't mean Trump didn't know about this secret meeting with the Russian government employees. It might be Cohen and his attorney are trying to get a better deal with the FBI, or it could be the FBI wants to keep this quiet while they continue to investigate if it's true or not.
