Democratic campaign group unveils ad of Donald Trump's disgraced fixer Michael Cohen attacking his ex-boss on first night of Republican convention saying: 'You shouldn't believe a word he utters. I was fooled.'

President Donald Trump's disgraced personal lawyer Michael Cohen is starring in an ad financed by a Democratic group that dropped just hours before the first night of the Republican National Convention. 

'I'm here to tell you he can't be trusted and you shouldn't believe a word he utters,' Cohen says of his former boss, in an ad from the Democratic super PAC, American Bridge 21st Century.  

Cohen, now out of jail thanks to the coronavirus crisis, says he knows the 'real Donald Trump' and that he was 'part of creating an illusion.'

'Later this week, he's going to stand up and blatantly lie to you,' Cohen says. 

Trump will actually make appearances throughout four nights of the RNC. 

On Monday, after addressing Republican delegates in Charlotte, North Carolina, where the convention was originally supposed to be held, Trump returned to Washington, D.C. and is expected to appear Monday night in a pre-taped segment greeting hostages he's helped to free during his administration. 

'So when you watch the president this week remember this, if he says something is huge, it's probably small, if he something will work, it probably won't. And if he says he cares about you and your family, he certainly does not,' Cohen says in the ad. 

Cohen called it doubtful that Trump has the ability to fix the economy. 

'Maybe for those like him,' he suggested. 'But if you think he cares about working class Americans, you're dead wrong.'  

He also called Trump's 'law and order' talk 'laughable.' 

'Virtually everyone who worked for his campaign has been convicted of a crime or is under indictment, myself included,' Cohen said. 

Last week, Trump's campaign CEO and key White House adviser Steve Bannon was arrested and indicted for a scheme to privately finance part of the president's long-proposed southern border wall.  

'So when the president gets in front of the cameras this week, remember that he thinks we're all gullible. A bunch of fools,' Cohen continued. 

'I was a part of it and I fell for it,' he added. 'You don't have to like me, but please listen to me.'
