Michael Cohen testified Monday he secretly recorded Donald Trump in the lead-up to the 2016 election, discussing plans to buy a Playboy model’s story about having an affair with the then-candidate.
Cohen — who worked for Trump for more than a decade — told jurors in Manhattan Supreme Court that the Sept. 6, 2016, conversation, taped on the Voice Memos app on his iPhone, was the only time he surreptitiously recorded his former boss.
“So, what do we got to pay for this? One-fifty?” Trump could allegedly be heard saying on the nearly three-minute recording played in court by Assistant District Attorney Susan Hoffinger.
The conversation centered around plans to buy the rights to former Playboy Playmate Karen McDougal’s story about having an affair with the married Trump from the National Enquirer, according to testimony.

The crime is ... ?
He had transgressed The Unwritten Law.
“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.
He opposes the globalist takeover of the United States and the imposition of the New World Order. That’s his ‘crime’ and for that he needs to be punished. We can’t have freedom and sovereignty anymore.
This a battle for the survival of civilization and ultimately for Christian culture and believers. Nothing less.
Nail his head to the floor…
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.
I gave him my baby to kiss, and he bit it !
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?
It’s not even about Porney Daniels. The alleged fake crime is the accounting entry expired misdemeanor “to cover up another crime.” A crime Fatt Alvin can’t even specify.
Why would a person being blackmailed want to cover up the payout?
Haha. Sad the dying cultural references…
I can think of half a dozen reasons why this shouldn’t even be admitted as evidence. These lawfare cases are unbelievable railroad jobs.
