Funny. I saw a YouTube video headline, which I did not click into, that implied that Cohen’s testimony was devastating for Trump.

IMHO, it doesn’t matter because the jury decided before the “trial” even began that they’d vote guilty. What I call an OJ jury. Hope I’m wrong.

I just hope this trial doesn’t remind us of the “To kill a mocking bird” movie where the defense exposes the prosecution witnesses as liars but a bigoted jury still sends an innocent man to prison.

Cohen is a perfect example of why it is so important to maintain your credibility. The lies never stop because the house is built on a foundation of lies. He really is a pathetic site to see, but like a dog, he keeps returning to his vomit to eat some more. I want to have pity on him but I just can't.

Protect your good name as best you can, especially with the people who matter in your life.

For me at least, the Real Story is that the Judge and the Prosecutor willfully and knowingly SUBORNED PERJURY in an effort to Deprive Trump of his Rights under the Color of LAW, they should Both be Prosecuted for this Felonious Activity.

the state should be ordered to pay the trump legal fees.

If Judge Merchan refuses to grant a motion to dismiss for some concocted reason of wanting to hear what the defense has to argue, President Trump should demand an immediate hearing before the New York State Court of Appeals for violation of his 6th amendment right to a speedy trial.

There is no valid reason for Merchan to keep a trial going if he knows the prosecution failed to prove the furtherance of another crime that justified bringing the expired misdemeanor bookkeeping charges to trial. Forcing Trump to put on a defense in a case that is past the statute of limitations would only be to keep him in court for punitive reasons, which is what the 6th amendment speedy trial protection was intended to prevent.
