Ex-fixer Michael Cohen has made nice with President Donald Trump and plans to air an interview this weekend with his former boss turned bitter frenemy on his new radio show.

Cohen, who infamously fell out with Trump in part over the disbarred lawyer’s conviction and imprisonment in the Stormy Daniels hush money case, teased excerpts of the make-up session with the president that were set to be released later Thursday and branded as “The Impossible Reunion.”

“You don’t have to agree with me. You don’t have to like Donald Trump,” Cohen said. “But listen before you judge.”

Cohen framed the forthcoming chat as an act of courage from both men although there’s no sign that Trump has apologized or changed his positions on any of the issues that caused their epic falling out.

“Sometimes the most extraordinary act of courage isn’t winning the fight,” Cohen said. “It’s deciding the fight doesn’t have to last forever.”

Cohen, 60, hasn’t said if he plans to ask Trump for a pardon to clear his federal felony record or assist in reversing his disbarment over admitted lies and unethical behavior that he once loudly and proudly blamed on his former boss.

“How can two men who spent years in a very public war, who hurled verbal missiles across an enormous legal and political canyon, ever sit down together again?” Cohen asked. “The answer is actually much simpler than people want it to be. We forgave.”

After nearly a decade of bitter feuding, Cohen scored a quickie meeting with Trump last year at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf resort, a chat that paved the way to his effort to return to Trump’s circle, the New York Times reported.

Trump sees an obvious benefit from Cohen’s change of heart. The president has pointed to Cohen’s reversal in the Daniels case as evidence that his own conviction on 34 felony counts was tainted. “It was a SET UP from the beginning,” Trump wrote on his social media site.

Cohen was one of Trump’s most ubiquitous and loyal sidekicks during his years as a real estate mogul and reality star and continuing into his White House win and first term, once saying that he would “take a bullet” for Trump.

Things started to go south in 2018 when the FBI seized Cohen’s cellphones and records from his home and office as part of the probe into payments made to silence women who said they had affairs with Trump, including Daniels.

Months later, he pleaded guilty to federal charges of tax evasion and campaign finance violations and served time in federal prison. He bitterly lashed out at Trump as the architect of his misdeeds.

“I regret doing things for him that I should not have,” Cohen said under oath. “To keep the loyalty and to do the things that he asked me to do, I violated my moral compass.”

Trump hit back at Cohen, calling him a bad lawyer and worse. Cohen won a lucrative book deal and became a fairly regular presence on left-leaning media like MSNOW, deriding Trump as a self-absorbed con man.

Cohen was a key witness against Trump at the then-former president’s Manhattan fraud trial, the only criminal case against him that ever went to trial before his return to the White House brought other probes to an end. Trump was convicted by a jury, but the judge effectively suspended his sentence, citing Trump’s impending return to the presidency.

Now Cohen now says the hundreds of hours of damning interviews he gave to prosecutors about Trump were riddled with lies.
