Trump Signed "Trump Tower Moscow" Letter of Intent, Contradicting Giuliani Claim
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CNN revealed Wednesday that President Trump signed a letter of intent
during negotiations on the proposed Trump Tower Moscow, despite his
lawyer Rudy Giuliani claiming just days ago Trump never signed such a
document. The letter is dated October 28, 2015. Last month, Trump's
former personal lawyer Michael Cohen said he lied to Congress about the
timing of the Trump Tower plans in an attempt to be consistent with
Trump's "political messaging" that the campaign had no ties to Russia.
Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison last week.
