A few days after Michael Cohen sat down with ABC News and told anchor George Stephanopoulos that his "first loyalty" is to his wife, son, daughter, and country — not, apparently, President Trump anymore — Cohen made a kind of suggestive change to his Twitter bio.

The stripping of Trump from his Twitter bio may just be Cohen recognizing that he is, in fact, no longer a "personal attorney to President Donald J. Trump." But as CNN's Brooke Baldwin noted Wednesday, this looks an awful lot like Cohen's "official Twitter breakup" with Trump, as Cohen faces serious legal jeopardy from federal prosecutors. You can watch Baldwin's guests weigh in on the implications for Trump and Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation below. Peter Weber
