Donald Trump's lawyer Todd Blanche begins cross-examining Michael Cohen, the prosecution's key witness, as the defense aims to discredit his testimony in the criminal hush money trial in New York. #CNN #News
@@drowningpooralice5505 only if there is any evidence to contradict him. And we all know the only way that comes in and it's either a convicted perjurer or a defendant who is never ever going to take the stand.
You mean the guy with felony convictions for fraud, perjury, theft, and running the NYC medallion scam? That guy? Let's not forget a permanent law license revocation............
tbh I dont think its remorse, I think that hes pissed that Trump left him hanging dry after years of him being his "fixer" which meant, bullying, harassing, yelling, paying off and or intimidating others on behalf of Trump. He said it himself, he loved being in the "inner cycle" of Trump like hes a god and I cant bring myself (not yet at least) to believe that if he was Still in his inner cycle would he be remorseful? He most likely realizes now that Trump is not the Hokey Pokey, he is not what its all about and feels foolish even,, but is it remorse? I dont see it as remorse. If anything separating from Trump has made him popular and rich, the more shit he talks about Trump the more books he writes and gets invited to the news networks, whereas before he was just a guy who no one knew that did dirty deals for Trump in the back of dark rooms.
If one went jail for someone for helping him keep bad things from the publicand then being paid much later if it wete me I would also hate trump .To hate is okay.It doesnt remove the evidence thzt trump was involved because its him who benefited
Exactly, if he does not, then he forfeits his right to talk bad about certain people. Because he does not have to testify whereas Cohen and other witnesses had to testifyx
Let me ask you this, if you were paying a lawyer millions of dollars, would you do as he say or do as you please? Only a fool wouldn’t listen to there lawyer and do what they tell him to do.
Cohen knew exactly who Trump was when he signed on. He was all to willing to be his fixer and surrogate bully. That said, he’s redeemed himself somewhat.
From what I heard on the taped conversation between Cohen and Trump, Cohen was being the big fixer.The big man in charge.No no no I'll handle it. When Trump tried to ask questions.

The prosecution is asking the facts to be substantiated by Cohen and asking the jury to believe him. Whether he has a personal vendetta against Trump is relevant.
Each one of you is absolutely correct, it should B based on the facts of the case, However, what actually matters is what & how the jury "SEEEES" everything & how the jury "FEEEEELS" about everything they see... Remember, they only need ONE person to say they doubt everything & case is shot! So, it does actually matter how the Defense Attorney can paint Michael Cohen to get a juror to say NO! Every time, I heard Cohen talking on the different news stations, I would scream & say out loud, "PLEASE STOP, please just stop, you're givin em too much amo! UGH!" I think Cohen wants sluthery slimy agent orange 45 in jail almost as much as I do, but it would B so very ironic if he doesn't go to jail BC of all that dayum talking Cohen has done! & don't get me wrong here, it should NOT have anything to do w/thow Cohen feels, but, we both know, in this case, sadly it could! 🫤
@@tommycoe2333 Fortunately, his feelings do not change the evidence. The prosecution has prepared well for that. Some jurors might feel that Cohen would be as likely to lie against Trump now as he was to lie _for_ Trump several years ago. But I think that most of them will believe he has some credibility, and however bad Blanche makes him look, it won't change their verdict. Surely some of them will point out to others that they had enough evidence to convict Trump before Cohen ever took the stand. And if I was on the jury, I would keep reminding them that Cohen was convicted and imprisoned for this crime. The boss man should be, as well. I'm looking forward to the prosecution's re-direct and closing arguments as far as Cohen is concerned. Maybe they should read off a list of people Trump has attacked on social media over the last couple of years. Just _reading_ the list, without any further commentary, would probably take 15 minutes.
You gotta hand it to the Mainstream Media, they really know how to CREATE DRAMA. I miss the days when they just reported the "News". Rupert Murdock changed everything. Rupert Murdock and his family must be laughing their asses off at what they have done to our country. Sad...

Who cares who Cohen is? They’re trying to figure out the facts. It doesn’t matter who the witness is & if people like him. What matters is if Trump broke the law & committed these crimes. Being so concerned about ‘liking someone’ is how our country ended up here. People voted for Trump cuz they wanted a celebrity that they find entertaining. That’s not what POTUS should be first & foremost. POTUS should be someone who does things to benefit & protect this country, our international relations & the citizens of this country. Who cares who likes the witness or not. That’s not what the trial is about. So ignorant!
StevenDurant, you are so right. Trump can dish it, but can't take it. Don has bashed the AG, the Judge, the Judge's daughter, the witnesses and President Biden. Trump is so guilty. However, Mike is not on trial. The evidence is enough to convict Trump.
@@LmaoHahahahahaKeep crying because you need the practice... especially in November!😂 Because trump will NEVER see the inside of the White House again. Just watch.
Cohen's feelings on the matter are kind of irrelevant when his testimony meaningfully corroborates what every one else has said so far. If anything, it just makes it more likely he would share the real details that are most damaging to Trump. We need to stop living in the world of stage performance vs reality and look to facts.
What check? Cohen got hunderds of checks and no one knows what they for for. They don't say Stormy, what checks? You see, that's CNN and their cult followers
You mean the checks he signed in 2017 when he was already president that somehow magically affected the 2016 election. That is literally the crime they are claiming, I kid you not.
@fletchermalenkos3301 and he hires only the best and the brightest, and he is the best business person ever....Yada Yada yada... therefore, because he is 100% the best, and in total control and micro manages his business, he was 100% aware of how the money was used to pay off someone weeks before an election, for an action that happened years prior. Sound about right?
Trump doesn’t have to prove his innocence. In fact neither do his lawyers. The only thing that matters is the prosecution removing any reasonable doubt that trump didn’t want his grandkids to know he fucked a pornstar. Is that basic
Was it impossible to relocate this conversation to a location that didn’t have construction going on in the background? Whoever signed off on this location and didn’t care about all the background noise needs a reprimand.
Cross exam in a nutshell : you weren't nice to trump on social media. 😂 If that's all the defense has just send it to jury deliberation. Cohen isn't under a gag order.
And he was not under gag order because anything he tweeted could be used against him without being or judicial to his case. Trump cannot disparage certain people because it would lead to his case being overturned on appeal if he caused himself to be convicted based on that prejudice.
You don't quite understand. COHEN went to jail for LYING under oath MULTIPLE TIMES, MANY TIMES, which he's doing RIGHT NOW AGAIN. He's a felon trying to get revenge. Every political candidate has a lawyer who takes care of things without needing to be babysitting or asked if they're doing it proper. I'd argue that Cohen set Trump up, hence the private recordings of Trump which totally proves that Cohen was just another democrat plant.
You know that after Biden has sink billions of your tax dollars into Ukraine, there's nothing to show right? You know there's a raging war in the Middle East ongoing right? You know that your southern border can't be secured right? Yet CNN has nothing more newsworthy to show you than a sham trial about Trump's alleged former private life. Pot and kettle liberal.
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🤣🤣
The case isn't about Micheal Cohen's opinion of the lawyer and his former boss. It's about whether the evidence supports the prosecution's belief that Trump knew about the hush money payment.
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🤣🤣
If the defense wants to do that, on redirect, the prosecution should show every tweet that Donald Trump has ever posted. Just take an hour and post as a slide show.
You guys **might** just consider that if someone had treated you like trumpsky et al treated Michael Cohen, you would have some pretty solid reasons to dislike that person intensely. (like being the only one that served JAIL time already for what they also were part of). That doesn't mean that you are lying when you relate what he did. There are many documents in this case that support everything Cohen is saying. Get a grip.
Wow what's with the witness bashing? I think that you would be pissed off too if your former boss made you do a bunch of illegal shit to help him and then he throws you under the bus. And then you had to dp time for him, while he is walking around free as a bird. Have some empathy and put yourselves in his shoes, or other witnessess shoes and stop sounding like a bunch of smug idiots. Of course the defence is going to try this, its their job. FYI Michael is not on trial and not under a gag order. Sure he might be pressing the line here but to bash him outright just wow. Where is your empathy?
Todd Blanche asked Michael Cohen if they ever met? And then asks how could you make such negative statement about me in the media? The response from Michael Cohen should have been very direct and simple: Just like you, I have represented Trump and I know that I was not a good person when I was representing a despicable character like Trump.
“The trials against [Trump] keep him in the spotlight, infuriate his base - who see him as a martyr and even may serve to make him the object of some sympathy among people in general who believe that his prosecutors are politically motivated,” the host said during his opening monologue on “Fareed Zakaria: GPS” on Sunday. “This happens to be true, in my opinion. I doubt the New York indictment would have been brought against a defendant whose name was not Donald Trump.”
It’s COMMON SENSE that Cohen would be pissed at dumpy. Anyone would understand that. But the evidence shows that cohen is correct about what happened. So there’s that 🤷🏼♀️ who cares what he said (except dumpy!)
It’s argumentative towards the lawyer, but what was said about Trump is how many people feel about Trump crying about being held accountable seems to be his MO and don’t run for president. If you’re gonna commit crimes it doesn’t give you a free pass.
He doesn't need a free pass. We've a justice system that takes so long to resolve anything that all he has to do is file appeals upon appeals so that the trials get delayed.
Have you ever had an iQ test? everyone else knows that ALL the other cases fell apart because cooler minds prevailed. Jack Smith tampered tampered with the evidence and the case got tossed and hes in trouble. same with fat fani in florida is gone and shes now under instigation. this trial is a scam ....only hillbillies with low iQs think these crimes are real
@@tonyk4123 I would arrest them and try them for their crimes, which is exactly what's happening with Trump. I certainly wouldn't try to put them in government and give them a taxpayer-funded paycheck.
@@jasminelindros8923 so when did the justice system change? You are guilty till proven innocent? So I can make it easy on you. Russia, Russia, Russia. Was Hillary hillary Hillary. The document at mar-largo was staged by jack smith. The big fani case do I need to say a word. Cohen said he stole money from Trump. And he went to jail for what? Carol case she can’t even remember when and where it happened but it did happens like she said so you have to believe her with no proof. How would you feel if some woman came out after 30 years and said that about your husband? And the other case has more big business leaving New York because of that s- show.
If insulting someone without knowing them affects credibility, Trumps credibility sure is below zero at this point.
Exactly
The speculation is wild,😂
Name 1 person, just 1, that Trump has ever gone after, who didn't go after him first. 1 is all l need!! Why so much bias towards Trump
Is he testifying to incriminate someone?

They ant going to like it I just hesrd cannon just dropped trumps trail for good
TRUMP 2024 I'm sorry I actually care for
my country and can't stoop that low to vote Democrat anymore.
You can't even be an adult here, so leave the adult business to those more qualified than yourself.
Everyone in the US has every right to be angry towards Rump after all the damage he did to our country.
Let facts and evidenced show the truth. Evil will never win over facts.
Lawyer :do you hate Donald Trump Mr, Cohen? Damn straight!
I’m sorry, but we the people are white hot furious about Trump and his criminal actions
You people overseas? I don't see ANY Americans having an issue with President Trump.
I am not sorry for feeling that way
What criminal actions?
What criminal actions?
Explain.
What criminal actions? Explain!
trump isn't arguing he's innocent, he's arguing he has the right to be a criminal
Sooo original and deep 😮😂
Be original. Pls.
lefties really have no fear of who's the big liar now do they .. FJB
@@CarolynSmith-ld5dz exactly how does the truth hurt your feelings?
Trump doesn’t have to prove his innocence. In fact neither do his lawyers. The only thing that matters is the prosecution removing any reasonable doubt that trump didn’t want his grandkids to know he fucked a pornstar. Is that basic
Michael Cohen has a questionable history BECAUSE OF Dump
Was it impossible to relocate this conversation to a location that didn’t have construction going on in the background?
Whoever signed off on this location and didn’t care about all the background noise needs a reprimand.
Cross exam in a nutshell : you weren't nice to trump on social media. 😂 If that's all the defense has just send it to jury deliberation. Cohen isn't under a gag order.
And he was not under gag order because anything he tweeted could be used against him without being or judicial to his case. Trump cannot disparage certain people because it would lead to his case being overturned on appeal if he caused himself to be convicted based on that prejudice.
These people got nerves to want somebody to stop talking, how bout you tell your criminal client to shut the hell up
Totally agree
Or follow the gag order(!)
Who else in this case even NEEDS A GAG ORDER?!?
Wouldn't the defenses fixation on Cohen as the witness negate Cohen s fixation with Mr. trump
Dems: HES GUILTY GUILTY……… 4 years of trials and nothing
Michael didn't have a "gag order" 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Yep! End of discussion.
@@stevebeegreat excuse me? WTF
Exactly
@@stevebeegreat why would she gag?
@@stevebeegreat wow, I guess that's your business 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ Be blessed, beloved 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think trumps attorneys are fair game.
Totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙
@@LmaoHahahahahathis is not a Dem thing. Trump brought this to himself.
Anyone who associates themselves with TRUMP is fair game
Fair game for what? Are you gonna stand in front of them and cry and pick your nose?
@@DJ-rx5lz Come on over......
Uh… I didn’t meet Hitler to hate him and know he was guilty based on the evidence.
What does any of this have to do about the money? I wish journalism would do better.
You might point out that you can hate without perjuring yourself.
Michael Cohen is not on trial here. Trump is so defending oneself against Trump is not a crime.
His credibility is on trial
I want to thank CNN and Michael Cohen for getting Trump re-elected
And props to CNN for giving Dylan Mulvaney a job
@@harryfarber6435 🤣
Totally agree 💯🇺🇸💙
I'm sure the prosecution is having crow for lunch today!
the amount of bots in this comment section is astounding!
Cohen went to jail for doing trumps dirty deeds.yes I would be obsessed with trump because he has been held accountable.
That’s a lie Cohen went to jail for his own dirty deeds get your crap straight🤥
Do all you Democrats smoke the same weed? WTF? Where do you get your BS ideas?
You obviously have no idea what slime ball Cohen was convicted of. Quit watching fake news.
Cohen was a lawyer who knows right from wrong. He had a choice; he chose to tell Trump it will be fine.
You don't quite understand. COHEN went to jail for LYING under oath MULTIPLE TIMES, MANY TIMES, which he's doing RIGHT NOW AGAIN. He's a felon trying to get revenge. Every political candidate has a lawyer who takes care of things without needing to be babysitting or asked if they're doing it proper. I'd argue that Cohen set Trump up, hence the private recordings of Trump which totally proves that Cohen was just another democrat plant.
He does what Donald does. He's not under a gag order. 😂
💯!!!
He hasn't done what trump did to get a gag order. Do you know what constitutes a gag order? lol
😝YOU COLD!
His distaste for Trump comes from experience and knowing his obvious wrathfulness. That's why he's a witness and not a juror.
I don't think it was fiery from what everyone was saying about how cool,calm and collected Michael was. Actually praising him for it...
Trump's defense got nothing better than go after social media posts haha
You know that after Biden has sink billions of your tax dollars into Ukraine, there's nothing to show right? You know there's a raging war in the Middle East ongoing right? You know that your southern border can't be secured right? Yet CNN has nothing more newsworthy to show you than a sham trial about Trump's alleged former private life. Pot and kettle liberal.
Absolutely agree 💯🇺🇸💙
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🤣🤣
@@LmaoHahahahaha If Trump wins in November, those house committees are going to be busy investigating all this corruption imo.
The case isn't about Micheal Cohen's opinion of the lawyer and his former boss. It's about whether the evidence supports the prosecution's belief that Trump knew about the hush money payment.
Thank you.
There is no evidence... That is why the lies
There's no evidence of it.
@@tamparocks That is to be determined by the jury.
HOW MANY OTHER CLIENTS,HAS HE SECRETLY TAPEDfor blackmail
Trump is guilty of covering up his sleazebag adultery to the American people and he's guilty of treason for Jan 6th. He's done ✔️
1) He never blackmailed Drumpf, and 2) it was smart to do it, because now there is proof it Drumpf was making the calls.
“Trump in Court,
Johnson in Hand”
Michael Cohen already knew what he was going to be up against which is why he decided on his own to stop discussing the case weeks ago
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🤣🤣
Agree.
CNn needs to go to jail with trump. Cohen has done his time
Dems don't do the things repubs do.
If anyone needs to go to Jail its fox news for the election lies and letting trump get away with anything and everything
I rarely watch CNN anymore since they fired Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon; and since CNN is biased for the GOP.
So shoot the messenger?
And where is their crime?
I agree 100%. No wonder Cohen often appears excited on TV given journalists keep calling him a liar when he has owned all he did and went to prison.
This was a fairly unbiased view, let’s keep this going
2:46 “Hoist with his own petard “outstanding Hamlet reference Gloria! Well done👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If the defense wants to do that, on redirect, the prosecution should show every tweet that Donald Trump has ever posted. Just take an hour and post as a slide show.
Trump reckons he hasn’t even met E Jean, go figure Blanche!
You guys **might** just consider that if someone had treated you like trumpsky et al treated Michael Cohen, you would have some pretty solid reasons to dislike that person intensely. (like being the only one that served JAIL time already for what they also were part of). That doesn't mean that you are lying when you relate what he did. There are many documents in this case that support everything Cohen is saying. Get a grip.
Wow what's with the witness bashing? I think that you would be pissed off too if your former boss made you do a bunch of illegal shit to help him and then he throws you under the bus. And then you had to dp time for him, while he is walking around free as a bird. Have some empathy and put yourselves in his shoes, or other witnessess shoes and stop sounding like a bunch of smug idiots. Of course the defence is going to try this, its their job. FYI Michael is not on trial and not under a gag order. Sure he might be pressing the line here but to bash him outright just wow. Where is your empathy?
Todd Blanche asked Michael Cohen if they ever met? And then asks how could you make such negative statement about me in the media? The response from Michael Cohen should have been very direct and simple: Just like you, I have represented Trump and I know that I was not a good person when I was representing a despicable character like Trump.
Good point. He'll prob think of that later.
Agreed, @cbjones2212 . Knee-jerk responses aren't always the best responses.
“The trials against [Trump] keep him in the spotlight, infuriate his base - who see him as a martyr and even may serve to make him the object of some sympathy among people in general who believe that his prosecutors are politically motivated,” the host said during his opening monologue on “Fareed Zakaria: GPS” on Sunday.
“This happens to be true, in my opinion. I doubt the New York indictment would have been brought against a defendant whose name was not Donald Trump.”
Ok, so Trump can send tweets full of hate for Cohen yet Cohen is being judged for doing the same? Thats a weak defense in my opinion.
Remember who violated the gag order 10 times
It’s COMMON SENSE that Cohen would be pissed at dumpy. Anyone would understand that. But the evidence shows that cohen is correct about what happened. So there’s that 🤷🏼♀️ who cares what he said (except dumpy!)
"Cohen cross-examination kicks off with fiery exchange" so let's otherwise "Convince It Forward" with Laus DEO
Why hasn’t the prosecution objected on the grounds that it has no relevance on charges.
Pleased with CNN for honest comments.
Michael Cohen’s testimony has been pivotal in legal proceedings, and his willingness to speak out has provided valuable information, Kudos to him
100%!
What case have you be en watching?
It’s argumentative towards the lawyer, but what was said about Trump is how many people feel about Trump crying about being held accountable seems to be his MO and don’t run for president. If you’re gonna commit crimes it doesn’t give you a free pass.
He doesn't need a free pass. We've a justice system that takes so long to resolve anything that all he has to do is file appeals upon appeals so that the trials get delayed.
Have you ever had an iQ test? everyone else knows that ALL the other cases fell apart because cooler minds prevailed. Jack Smith tampered tampered with the evidence and the case got tossed and hes in trouble. same with fat fani in florida is gone and shes now under instigation. this trial is a scam ....only hillbillies with low iQs think these crimes are real
So hows this trial going?
Waist of tax dollars this trial is a joke
Character is irrelevant when you have the receipts.
Absolutely 💯🇺🇸💙
Agree.
That has Nothing to do with laws that were broken.
Totally agree 🇺🇸💙
The construction work in the background is especially pleasant.
THANKS COHEN 🇺🇸
Huh? Trump's "defense" is going to focus on Cohen's emotions instead of addressing the facts of the case?
Yep.
The Prosecutor will try to clean up when they get their chance on redirect. 😊
How would you treat a liar, and a thief?
@@tonyk4123 I would arrest them and try them for their crimes, which is exactly what's happening with Trump. I certainly wouldn't try to put them in government and give them a taxpayer-funded paycheck.
@@jasminelindros8923 so when did the justice system change? You are guilty till proven innocent? So I can make it easy on you. Russia, Russia, Russia. Was Hillary hillary Hillary. The document at mar-largo was staged by jack smith. The big fani case do I need to say a word. Cohen said he stole money from Trump. And he went to jail for what? Carol case she can’t even remember when and where it happened but it did happens like she said so you have to believe her with no proof. How would you feel if some woman came out after 30 years and said that about your husband? And the other case has more big business leaving New York because of that s- show.
