Trump counts every penny. He would never have consented to a $260K payment to Cohen for legal expenses when he could have gotten away with $130K for a disbursement unless he INTENDED for the payment to be RECORDED as a business expense rather than a disbursement. That's the whole case right there.

It is time every bit as well spent (for some) as spending that time - say - writing and/or recording a song.

It's also understandable that a person is angry at someone for whom they committed crimes and served a prison sentence. I would have questioned Cohen's credibility more if he said he forgave Trump and loves Trump and wants Trump acquitted and become President for life.

If I was Cohen on the stand, I'd refuse to answer any questions and just respond with "are you questioning the validity of my receipts"? It wouldn't be perjuring himself, just being uncooperative to the defense. I don't know how well that would work, but honestly if it started to not work and I was Cohen, I'd just fall asleep, the Trump defense.
I don't get the Trump lawyer's point? It's not uncommon for co-conspirators or partners in crime to testify against other criminals. Cohen's former and current behaviour don't change the facts on Trump.

Hey Ari, that's not Cohen's merchandise. It's meidas touch merchandise. Set the record straight.
Dude pay attention to what they were saying in court Michael Cohen does not sell that merch Midas touch sells it stop spreading lies
That shirt is not the property of Michael Cohen. The merchandise belongs to the Meidas Touch, which is owned by the three Meiselas brothers. Michael Cohen does not own this merchandise. Facts are important.
Why are you having Trump pundits on to spread falsehoods? Why don’t you have someone that can push back and just accept his opinions as facts. I’m disappointed.
The bots I see everywhere convince me of Trumps guilt. Why pay bots like that unless you are guilty.
He has the documents and proof to back up his testimony. So why are we even talking about this? Why is Trump not in jail yet? That's the big news.

This tshirt and items are from meidastouch store not Cohen, he doesn't have a store. Look at the bottom of the add says meidastouch. DO BETTER
Ari, get your facts straight. That T-shirt is not sold from Michael Cohen, but through the Meidas Touch podcast
I've said this before, but it seems fitting with this video too. Todd Blanche should pay attention to Cohen and be taking notes, in a few short years, he could be sitting where Cohen is now.
MidasTouch put out a statement that Micheal Cohen dose not OWN the Merchandice store or any of the company. He just has a few shows with the media company. Need to report that real fact. Go ahead confirm with them , they even put out a video on it today.

Merch is sold by Meidas Touch Network not by Cohen. How can a big news network get something so wrong??
Those shirts are Meidas Touch shirts, not Mea Culpa shirts.
So someone with inside knowledge about a criminal isn't a credible witness if he advocates for that criminal's prosecution? Strange logic indeed.
