The crime is ... ?
“about secret recording he made of Trump”
Cohen should be retroactively disbarred from that time.
What happened to that recording?
I guess Trump should have protected himself legally be getting it on with a Chinese honeypot spy like Eric Swalwell did. (sarcasm)
And if the alleged recording of the alleged Trump conspiracy actually exists, how do we know it isn’t a deepfake? I wouldn’t put it past either Cohen or the prosecution to use fakes to try to (further) poison the Jury.
Isn’t it a violation of law to record someone in a phone conversation without their knowledge? If so, it cannot be used and must be thrown out.
Why is this even relevant? The claim against Trump concerns Porny Daniels, not Karen McDougal.

He keeps talking about a recording but does he ever produce it , I think this guy was scamming Trump from day one
Cohen was Trump’s attorney when he taped this. How is this not privileged?
Why would a person being blackmailed want to cover up the payout?
I can think of half a dozen reasons why this shouldn’t even be admitted as evidence. These lawfare cases are unbelievable railroad jobs.
feh...
The reason you hire a lawyer is to make sure what you do is legal and prudent. If a discussion with legal counsel to be sure your conduct is legal and prudent is now a crime what is next thought crimes. It is hard sell to say Real President Trump is a legal expert.
The most important thing is for President Trump to be open and transparent with the public and does not attempt to hide something embarrassing causing him to fall into a legal trap.
Remember Nixon
“So, what do we got to pay for this? One-fifty?”
Doesn’t sound like Trumps way of speaking wonder if it’s a recording of a doctored recording.
Trump could allegedly be heard ??????????
Wouldn’t put anything that ambulance chaser.
What a coincidence! The only time he ever recorded Trump just happens to be in a case that is brought 7 years later about that very thing! What are the odds?
If I have this right, Trump isn’t charged with the McDougall matter, only for the record keeping on Stormy Daniels?
So this is only allowed to show this was Trump’s method of working with Cohen.
But it’s also very prejudicial.
And no, not illegal at all.
And nothing was illegal regarding Stormy, either.
So Trump discussed how to dispense with McDougal’s false claims, but no discussion of the situation at hand, which isn’t illegal in any case. Talk about trying to muddy the waters.
If Cohen told Trump he was going to front the NDA money, as he claims (consider this is from the least credible source I’ve ever seen testify), is the suggestion that this proves Trump sought to avoid a federal campaign violation? How so? How preposterous! Regardless, there’s no conceivable federal campaign violation. — Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) May 13, 2024
