Conservatives destroy former Trump critics who now 'grovel' at president’s feet

During Joe Biden's presidency and the 2024 presidential election, Michael Cohen was a blistering critic of Donald Trump and even said he would leave the United States for safety reasons if Trump returned to the White House. But the New York Port is reporting that Cohen has a new radio gig in the Big Apple, where, on Sunday, July 12, he will take over the WABC radio show formerly hosted by ex-New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. And Cuomo appears to have made peace with Trump.

WABC owner John Catsimatidis, a Trump supporter, told the Post, "I checked with the White House, and they had no objection. I understand everything is fine."

When Lewis pointed out that Trump was reportedly "OK with the hiring of Michael Cohen," Sykes noted an "insight that he got" from conservative former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Illinois) — which is that Trump "will forgive you" and "bring you back if he wants to."

Sykes told Lewis, "Adam, I think said this on one of my podcasts. Adam said, 'You know, if I called up Donald Trump tomorrow and said I'm really, really sorry — I would like to get on the team — Donald Trump would invite me down to Mar-a-Lago.' He would create the big tent, while Democrats are saying, 'No, Matt Lewis wrote something 15 years ago that I find offensive. We don't need Matt Lewis.' For Donald Trump, it's like: Come on in, I love it when people admit they're wrong. I love the sinners who come home for more sin. Apparently. And this is something to keep in mind."

Sykes continued, "For Republicans, that door is almost always open. There are some lines you cannot cross, I mean, as (Rep.) Thomas Massie found out. (But) you know, if Marjorie Taylor Greene called him up tomorrow and said, 'Hey, Daddy, can I come home?," what do you think he would say? Absolutely, come home. Get on your knees."

Lewis interjected argued that "if Michael Cohen believes half of the things he said about Donald Trump," he "wouldn't want anything to do with him" — to which Sykes responded, "But Trump loves the groveling. He loves that."

Sykes continued, "It works for him. It does. It's a part of that transactional nature…. You would think that some of the things Michael Cohen has said would make any normal human being's bright line. You know what, they're off the Christmas cards. Donald Trump: not necessary."
