Okay? And you know that's all they're investigating Cohen for how?

This is from CNN:

Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's personal attorney, has been "under criminal investigation" for months in New York because of his business dealings, the Justice Department said Friday.

The basis for the criminal investigation is Cohen's business dealings. We're talking about the S.D.N.Y. here. This is the prime target for terrorism in the world. This is the home of La Cosa Nostra, the Russian Mafia, a distribution point for Latin drug cartels and home to scores of street gangs engaged in RICO activities.

These are the cases you expect to see wiretaps, because you have people who are extremely insulated from day-to-day criminality and there's no other way to obtain similar information.

Wiretaps are expensive in terms of time and manpower. To think that a lawyer who has 3 clients is worthy of the resources and time required to effectuate a long-term wiretap is to feign logic. If Cohen didn't represent Donald Trump and he was under investigation, they would have subpoenaed documents and conducted an interview like they would for almost all other business crime investigations.
