Donald Trump’s attorney Todd Blanche began his confrontation with Michael Cohen by reminding the former fixer of his own words. CNN’s Anderson Cooper and his political panel discuss. #CNN #News
lol knew this was coming, maybe ALMOST, lol...this guy is NEVER gonna catch a break, that shocked woman's face and gaping eyes if I recall in one of the Zoom screens, and gasping, lol. Still on here I would imagine, YT that is. Yeah, that was BAAAAD.
but he came out and apologized and owned up to it too, the network sanctioned him I believe, was fired from somewhere as well I think, or a contract terminated over that mess. Glad he got through it though, the man messed up and he is just trying to come back on some level, many would do likewise, the ambitious that is. But yeah, it was crazy for certain when that happened.
The problem is.....yes he hates trump now. However, how has stormi or cohens testimony prove the charges. And honestly I thought I knew what they were charging Trump with but now I'm not sure at all. What is Trumps actual crime and how has it been proven? So far there is no proof that the payments have come from the campaign. And that audio tape sounds like Cohen was handling the problem.The actual payments to stormi are not illegal. Trump having sexual relationship with her is not illegal. So what has been done?
Cohen does NOT sell t-shirts. They are sold by Meidas Touch. YOU all need to get your stories straight. HE DOES NOT OWN that store. BTW-it's not illegal to buy a t-shirt and wear it.
And this is who CNN STILL has on their panel. Says volumes about the CNN and why they have lost 85% of their audience in less than 4 years. 85%. You people are the last 15% who are still hanging on. You people are the potatoe heads of society.
That is the only way you will get real information. Back in the day the only news we got was from these specific news channels and they were able to hide whatever they wanted and we also trusted them because we didn’t know that they were bought and paid for. Thank God we know now.
Ellie Hoenig is an embarrassment. Cohen isn't selling merchandise. He should know better, he's been on Cohen's show twice. Day after day he just states things that are subjective or untrue. I hope Cohen's lawyers are watching.
CNN and MSNBC are getting their facts wrong on the merch situation. Those shirts and merchandise are being sold by the Meidas Touch Network. Come on Elie you're getting lazy
These guys are talking about cohen’s creds and they’re discussing this with toobin, who was caught jking off on zoom tv. And the other guy saying don’t have axe murderer at jay walking trial. Cohen is the central figure in this who knows what all sides were doing and already has been corroborated by trump’s people
The dems are in panic mode🤣. They know trump is winning so they’re election interfering by making up fake charges to attack him with hoping that he doesn’t make it to the White House again🤣🤣🤣
I mean. Wouldn’t a truly open minded jury member look at the context of both Stormy and Cohen hating Trump? These analysts are too far up their own legal butthole. A normal person would ask “WHY do these ppl hate him?”
The dems are in panic mode🤣. They know trump is winning so they’re election interfering by making up fake charges to attack him with hoping that he doesn’t make it to the White House again🤣🤣🤣
So its wrong for Cohen to say he wants donald trump to go to jail but, its perfectly fine for donald trump to sell merchandise with his mugshot on it. Smh
Sean Hannity today on AM Radio repeated that Cohen was producing Trump "jail shirts," and added that Cohen going to jail is fake news. "If Cohen never went to jail, how could there be a crime?" Hannity and Honig probably meet for coffee or drinks every week.
Anything that Michael Cohen said about Trump, Trump said about Michael Cohen and since there is an imbalance of power, it's that much more magnified when Trump said these things. I would hate Trump too.
Where have you been for the past eight years, they lie daily about anything related to Trump, the GOP, Covid, Fauci anything that might upset their narrative
@@pjpredhomme7699 True, I didn't make it clear the journalist part was for CNN. If I was on social media I would have contacted Elie and Jeffery directly. The way they went on and on and on...infuriating.
@@mrdill7792and what's wrong with that? The PAB-trump is also selling anything and everything he can from Bibles to cheap ass looking sneakers the only thing he hasn't tried to sell is melania or ivanky.
@@mrdill7792 Lost his law license and all he can do now is beg for money and sell merch calling Trump names.... He has the meth head fans of CNN in his pocket. LOL
When you have a president thats laundering money out of countries like China and Ukraine, showering with his own daughter its about time people see him for what he is, scum.
That's what you're worried about selling T-shirts rather than the fact that Michael Cohen lied on the stand again about meeting Alvin Bragg and his team and then Donald Trump's lawyers produced evidence showing that he actually did meet Alvin Bragg and his team said album Bragg's office You're worried about fucking T-shirts and not the fact that Michael Cohen lied again on the stand yeah that's what you should be worried about more
Well you can't argue it's not Trumps signature on the checks. Or argue the substance of Cohen's testimony corroborated at every level. Even Hope Hicks said "We were all just following HIS lead"
@@bigpicturethinking5620 So you’re saying it’s okay to behave that way on zoom calls because it’s a “natural impulse?” Go ahead and try that on your next work call and see what happens. I. Dare. You.
At 3:00 here, Trump gets to say and do whatever he wants. Still, Michael Cohen selling T-shirts and revealing Trump's misfortunes does not change the facts if he committed a crime here just like who Ms. Willis in Atlanta slept with doesn't have a whit to do whether or not Trump committed that crime.
Really, Elie and Jeffrey? With all the undisputable facts already laid bare to the jury, it would appear way more dishonest/abnormal if Cohen did not to wish prison time for Trump!
These dudes act like Cohen is supposed to just forget that he did time for the crimes they committed together and then was thrown under the bus. If anything he's being honest when he says that he goes trump goes to prison, who wouldn't in his situation? Frankly I would question his motivation if he said that he didn't care if trump did time for this
I think the corroborating facts of the charged crime will take precedent over the show the defense is putting on. Did you notice how defense lawyer asks some questions then pivots to disparaging posts against orange man then asks some questions (repeat)? He’s trying to taunt Cohen. I’m glad he’s staying composed. Keep it up, Michael! Don’t let them make it a ‘feels’ case!
@@chaddavis4895 Did you listen to Cohen’s testimony? THAT is called evidence. Will the great orange one provide his own evidence? Perhaps you should research what ‘evidence’ means.? You’d be correct, though that he doesn’t have to because the prosecution has the burden. I’d say, “There is no better testimony or evidence than your own words.” There are more than three reasons why sleepy don won’t testify.
@spacecube4991 oh, so testimony is evidence now? Why wasn't it good enough after the 2020 election? Back to the point, Cohen hasn't provided any evidence that implicated Trump as guilty. Rather, Cohen confessed to committing several crimes.
Ok. I’m done with Honig. What the hell does he expect? That Michael was gonna write love letters to Trump. And maybe it’s time to call out Trump for what he is and stop with the kid gloves with Trump.
Trump is allowed to send his Pitbulls after anyone he has a difference with. Cohen, better than anyone knows who Trump is and Cohen isn't going to be a pansy like those who bow to Trump.
Exactly. Cohen went to prison because of Trump - he has a right to be angry. And the whole country should be angry at Trump for a dozen compelling reasons.
2:42 Is Ellie trying to get on the Trump defense team? He said that long before the case. Btw, there are two lawyers on that jury. The documents are NOT in dispute. The documents show what he did.
People hear what they want to hear and see what they want to see. Cohen's anger towards Trump is not disputable. But, having said that, at some point Cohen should say, if he hasn't already, of course I am angry at Trump, I lied for him, I went to great lengths to do what he needed and in return Trump turned on me. This would explain the anger and it would corroborate Cohen's account.
There are a million comments asking Trump to be jailed. most are normal americans just wanting justice. That is our sentiment and that would sound like what most decent folk wants
Oh c'mon Honig - if Trump can bad-mouth Cohen before the trial, then Cohen can bad-mouth Trump before the trial. They hate each other - so what? Either what Cohen says is corroborated by others (and it is) or it isn't. That's all that matters.
The case relies on Cohen knowing the contents of Trumps head beyond a reasonable doubt. Glad they brought it though. It's given Trump a 5% boost in the polls.
The dems are in panic mode🤣. They know trump is winning so they’re election interfering by making up fake charges to attack him with hoping that he doesn’t make it to the White House again🤣🤣🤣
@@LmaoHahahahahaWinning what? He's sitting in criminal court everyday for weeks. No wife, no kids, whining and crying DAILY. Had to pay some one for sex. He's the DEFINITION of a loser.😂😂😂😂
Elie says "He's consumed with hatred." I guess he's not the only member of that pair, that odd couple, who is. Another empty spot for Nelie Hornig. And who's the dooley-dork?
How quickly you forget, "Lock her up!" Trump is just as vile, just as nasty. Let's put it this way (and this includes congress) you are the five closest people that you hang with. Trump hangs with very sordid people.
Exactly. When you’ve already gone to prison for the guy and he remains consequence free… it would truly be a saint who wouldn’t resent every moment of that, and Michael Cohen, I’m sure he would say himself, is no saint
Poor Trump and his lawyers are mad about Cohen joking about Trump going to jail. Look who went to jail for 3 years for trump? Of course he's pissed off who wouldn't be upset about that😊
@@commentfailedtopost you can’t just create a witness who is both credible and in Trump’s inner circle. Cohen is flawed but is still the most credible person in the room
@@commentfailedtopost Yeah well your not going to find anyone credible where Trump is involved - so now we have to sort through what is left - unless of course you consider it logical that a lawyer is going to get a loan against his mortgage - to pay a porn star - to shut up over sex that Trump didn't have with her - yeah that makes sense
Lubbin Toobin! Do you suppose the folks at CNN make him wear those little plastic hands when he is working, like the habitual masturbator character on Sons Of Anarchy?
I remember Bernard Shaw’s incredible reporting for CNN; back when CNN had credibility. Resurrecting Toobin demonstrates how far this once great network has fallen.
correct but nor should he stand beside that and take gratuitous shots at Trump while he is constrained. That is BS - it is like punching someone while they are being held . This trial will be over soon and he can start right back and spill , insult to his hearts content after that - more power to him
But do be aware, he is not selling t-shirts. And Elie, you will have heart him repeatedly favouring home detention, and arguing the case for that firmly and sobrely. Which was far far less than he got for in essence the same thing. Let us go back for instance to you your own appearance on the podcast. And quote you, yourself exactly.
This eli guy think he so smart. He just makes himself sound smart but he is trying so desperate to hate on cohen at this point. Its so obvious. Dude, if someone screwed me over like that, you bet i wish he go to jail too bc i paid my time.
The dems are in panic mode🤣. They know trump is winning so they’re election interfering by making up fake charges to attack him with hoping that he doesn’t make it to the White House again🤣🤣🤣
@@user-zy3df5ve7hIt’s from the transcript, and they left out parts of the transcript that makes things clearer. CNN always cherry pick things to make a story.
The first thing every single one of the people on that panel think is, "What can I say that will keep me on television." The first rule every single for profit media outlet follows is, "Keep people tuned in." Might want to consider their target audiences as well. Still. Compared to social media, or Grandma's next-door neighbor, corporate media is the best option we have for accurate news. The key is to know the difference between news reporting, and commentaries. And which so called "News" channels get their arses sued all the time.
Correction… Michael Cohen DID NOT sell T-shirts. They were sold on the Meidas Touch Network (merchandise). He didn’t sell them. AND he (might have) said that in his testimony.
Did the mean evil Trump hurt your feelings? LOL Feel more comfortable living in moms basement vaping, while spending 35% more for everything while your hand puppet Biden has ice cream dribbling down his chin like a 5 year old? LOL
I'm not an attorney but I'm smart enough to understand the difference between a witness who did bad things and a witness who did bad things that are intended to exploit their connection to the defendant.
I don't even want to listen, I already know where Toobin will go. It will be a political analysis rather than legal. To that point, the opening remarks were saying cross exam should be a cake walk and the defense fell on their face. Toobin points out Cohen's past, the same as the defense; that isn't an analysis, that's cheer leading. This was a panel that pander for outrage, not insight.
