Former fixer Michael Cohen has expressed concern that ex-president Donald Trump will use the military, including the elite Navy SEAL Team Six, to “round up” his critics if he is re-elected in November. Cohen’s warnings come after Trump reiterated his threats to prosecute and jail opponents, including lawyers and political operatives, in a recent post on his social media platform Truth Social.

Cohen, who previously worked as Trump’s attorney, believes that Trump’s threats should not be dismissed as rhetoric. He emphasized the seriousness of Trump’s intentions and pointed to his own legal troubles related to the former president.
Despite a rocky relationship with Trump, including legal disputes over unpaid bills, Cohen continues to raise alarms about Trump’s fitness for office. He warns that Trump’s vindictive nature could lead to further incarcerations of critics at his whim.
