CNN’s Anderson Cooper FLABBERGASTED, ADMITS Trump’s lawyers CRUSHED Michael Cohen during cross 

This was a reasonable conversation - stick with this team both of you! Good conversation.

It’s good to reach out… sometimes. Keep doing both.

That certainly might influence my decision if I'm with on the jury. On the other hand "Trump keeps hiring criminals" doesn't improve my opinion of him in general.

he should just plead the 5th 50 times like trump

Idiocracy 2!

@@matthewstrotman4917 That's what I was going for, great minds!

He has TDS so...

You may be right, but prosecutors and biased judges are usually very good at packing juries.

The recordings are damning

@@lour8237 Only if you start with the premise that a conversation about a legal fee is damning. The DA's predecessors, JB's DOJ, and the FEC already investigated this issue for years and found no wrong-doing on DT's part.

Are you arguing the law here? If so this isn't based on sanity but the rule of law. You are arguing emotion, not the facts. Curious how close you kept up with the trial details.

@@KevinSmith-gu7fb and yet Cohen went to prison for it

Its the cover up.

There is a reason this is free: Agree to the first comment. A fairly ridiculous issue - he had two extensive calls with Trump immediately before sending the money the next day. He got paid the debt on the house + tax + bonus is written out in detail in the handwriting of the dude whose retirement home is Rikers, identified by his assistant that confirmed the handwriting due to looking at it for 35 years. The jury may get hung due to how polarising Trump had forced the US society well enabled by Gaetz (wait is she seventeen!) and MTG… god, too many insults to choose from. You MAGA idiots want to choose an autocracy who is too boastful to not take credit for his Putin/North Korean love letters. If this is the best case you have; then things are not looking good.

@@sonjafunakura867 there is no cover-up. There was no crime. And this is not a criminal offense at best it’s an IRS issue. Even the guy that mows your lawn, pays an accountant to do his tax return. Trump doesn’t do his own taxes. Trump doesn’t make these type of decisions. Lawyers don’t do that either. Trump did not break any laws. None of these prosecutions are founded on anything other than trying to prevent Trump from being president.

He didn't give Daniels any money. Cohen sent DT's company an invoice for a legal fee, and the company paid it.

@@KevinSmith-gu7fb so trump paid it through his company

@@lour8237 He paid a legal fee to an attorney, who had invoiced the company for legal services. A company of that size gets invoices all the time. I know, as I've worked in accounts payable. Companies sometimes just pay the invoices to their established vendors all the time without thinking much about it. It's not unusual for companies to pay the same invoice more than once or to pay the wrong vendor for another vendor's invoice amount. A lot less thought goes into than you might think. I once saved my employer from a $16,000 mistake when they had paid a scammer for our actual vendor's invoice. The scammer had spoofed our vendor's email and given the company bank account info from an off-shore account. I happened to catch it, and that kind of thing happens in big companies all the time, so it's not unusual to think they probably just paid their vendor Michael Cohen, without knowing what the specific charge was for because they were just used to paying him when he billed them.

The prosecution is saying, Trump signing the check IS falsification of business records because the invoice showed legal fees when he knew they were not… so bogus..

You don't know what you're talking about. The prosecution called 👉20 witnesses👈, including many Trump Organization and former White House employees. That the business records were falsified is nigh indisputable. You have no reason to claim the jury is biased either. You are pulling a Trump, priming each other with lies about a corrupt system (elections, justice...) to later scapegoat, attack common enemies, and -- ALWAYS -- refuse to take responsibility for shortcomings.

Says who, Cohen, the guy who has already served time for lying under oath?

@@KevinSmith-gu7fb He did the crime and he did the time. If that's not enough for you Should he pay right to his grave?

@@Doreana48501 Would you trust a convicted perjurer if he were testifying about JB?

@@KevinSmith-gu7fb Who do I think I am not to afford anyone a second chance . Not perfect that's for sure

​@@Doreana48501 All you care about is that the defendant is DT. If the defendant were someone you cared about, there's no way you'd trust someone with Cohen's background to testify against them. Just be honest with yourself.

I think NY judges are so used to getting away with stuff like this that they don't realize just how bad they look when there's a spotlight on them showing what they do when not as many people are looking.
