‘Mr. Fix-It’ Michael Cohen bombs on the stand, offers no new evidence to convict Trump

Anderson Cooper of CNN was left stunned by Trump's attorney's cross examination of Michael Cohen

"It was incredible...lawyers want to build a box around the witness & slam it shut--that's what Todd Blanche did to Cohen...it was an extraordinary cross...Cohen was cornered in...a lie"

CNN’s Cooper: “Cohen was cornered in what appeared to be a lie…and had to adjust suddenly his memory that he had just testified to on Tuesday.” He called the cross examination “devastating” to Cohen’s credibility and story, upon which the whole, dubious prosecution hinges:

CNN Legal Analyst Elie Honig: I don’t think I’ve ever seen a star cooperating witness get his knees chopped out quite as clearly and dramatically as what just happened with Michael Cohen.

Appeals Court the rapid overturn and say "Not Guilty!"

When even the liberal news-media are pissing all-over
the prosecution's case and witnesses - it's over. ...

That is why there are appeals courts.

The American people see what a sham and farce the case is. Hell, when you lose CNN, you know the case is a joke. So if the idiots on the liberal NY jury vote to convict, it will just make President Trump even more popular and stronger to normal Americans

CNN analyst notes that Michael Cohen's admission of stealing $60,000 from his employer is 'a higher degree of crime than what Trump is charged with.'

The corrupt judges treatment of Bob Costello is truly disgraceful - he will not allow him to tell his story - the same story he told Congress - as he knows it will be devastating and end this sham trial. This is not justice!

Corrupt Judge Merchan is sustaining the prosecutions objections before question is fully asked. It’s so bad the witness (Costello) blurs out “Jeez”. The contrast of how much Judge Merchan let in during Stormy’s and Cohen’s testimony to the handcuffing he is doing to the defense is unreal.

It is also 180 degrees opposite of what judges do in most criminal cases where they error on the side of allowing the defense to fully defend so that the conviction is upheld on appeal.

It's Merchan's courtroom and he runs it as he see's fit. He doesn't play games with ppl going off, being overly dramatic, huffing and side-eyeing him. He's got to be the one who holds BOTH sides to be accountable and in legal bounds. I think Costello was a little bold in his assertions, and as there isn't a lot of corroboration on opinions- that leaves the facts. Cohen at least tied, money to actions, and knowledge, and timelines and ultimately it's Trump who is a micro-penis-micro manager who signs checks,...ONLY when he knows that it's a known reason for the expense. Pleading innocent to not knowing his business dealings, and claiming it was his attorneys fault is a joke. His attorneys EVEN IN THE CURRENT trial know that he is the one who orchestrates the questions, the narrative both pre and post court- and he tells them what to ask and say. I don't hear a peep out of any of the stuffed suits he has outside the courtroom and they are supposed to be great.

Prediction- GUILTY on at least 7 counts of the 34. We'll know within another week and then it's game on. OR ----perhaps Trump can payoff one of the attorneys who's on the jury to get a hung jury??? Nahh...that wouldnt' happen in pay-off land for silence Trumpville would it??

Cohen ties times and dates and money to Trump. The rest is financial records that are false or misleading. They are all swornto be accurate- they aren't. That spells out something to the rest of the world besides Turley who is a shill for the GOP anyway.

Merchan is once again showing himself to be a political hack running a rigged show trial. Merchan is making a concerted effort to defang the defense’s arguments that undercut the phony premise of the Manhattan case.

Merchan doesn't want to hear from a witness who knows a lot more about campaign finance laws than Judge Merchan.

“There weren’t any campaign violations committed by Trump.” Jonathan Turley and former head of the FEC Brad Smith

... Doesn't matter WHAT the Jury does - if there's a conviction,
it's Overturned on APPEAL. ...

The REAL conversation concernin' Michael Cohen is WHERE he goes
from here... And what happens to him Next Year? ... ()

... Any o' you lads wanna be in HIS shoes??
