Cohen Quits RNC Post, Swipes at Trump’s Separation Policy
President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and close ally Michael Cohen resigned from his Republican National Committee post Wednesday and denounced the administration’s family separation policy in his resignation letter, reports ABC News.

Cohen used to serve as the deputy finance chair of the RNC’s Finance Committee.
