Donald Trump aide Michael Cohen questions polls that show the businessman trailing Hillary Clinton https://t.co/Ri6l5akJEC — CNN (@CNN) August 17, 2016 
 
 "Ok. He was upset with how the media was characterizing the shake up which resulted in Trump appointing new campaign leaders. Asked about Donald Trump’s decision to hire a pair of new senior campaign officials amid his growing polling deficit, the Manhattan billionaire’s attorney’s incredulous response was “says who?” 
 
 In an interview on Wednesday afternoon, substitute CNN host Brianna Keilar asked Trump Organization Executive Vice President Michael Cohen about the hiring of campaign manager Kellyanne Conway and CEO Stephen Bannon, widely perceived as a shakeup intended to remedy the Republican nominee’s struggling campaign. But Trump is winning at least one poll on Wednesday, A Monmouth University poll of Indiana found he was ahead of Clinton by 11 points in the state, 47%-36%. During the segment, Keilar pushed back saying the campaign was “down.” Cohen pushed back: “says who?” Keilar replied “polls.” And things, well, got pretty awkward. I just answered your question."
– Donald Trump's lawyer has apparently decided that it's his turn to make the gaffes. In an interview with CNN Wednesday, notoriously combative Trump Organization attorney Michael Cohen interrupted host Brianna Keilar when she said that the campaign was "down," Politico reports. "Says who?" he asked. "Polls. Most of them. All of them?" she replied. "Says who?" Cohen asked again. When she repeated it was polls, he responded, "OK, which polls?” and Keilar said: “All of them." USA Today reports that Twitter users were quick to mock Cohen and are now replying "Says who?" to all his tweets. Cohen, in what Law Newz calls "typical lawyer fashion," also took issue with Trump's overhaul of campaign staff being called a "shake-up," insisting it was actually a "change-up." Cohen also raised eyebrows when he told Kielar that Trump knows about "the African-American problem in this country," the Independent reports. "What I meant to say is the problem that exists in the African-American community," he later said. (Michael Moore says he "knows for a fact" that Trump never really wanted to be president.)
