For the last few days, we have been talking about what should absolutely disastrous testimony in Trump’s NYC trial.
We say it should be disastrous, because it absolutely would be disastrous in front of a fair jury, but we are not sure we have a fair jury.
In the last few days, we have seen Anderson Cooper admit Cohen seemed to lie about the contents of a phone call, and Cohen admit to stealing thousands of dollars from the Trump organization.
The theft is extra bad, because it apparently included falsifying documents in order to carry it out (he sent an inflated bill).
So that means any document he had a hand in creating becomes suspect, just like with that ‘lying Pecker.’ But if we were on the Trump defense team, we would also focus very strongly on allegations that Cohen had lied in the current trial.
As this author said the last time that we wrote about Cohen: “One way to shore up a witness with a history of lying is to say ‘sure, he lied in the past, but he has reformed his ways and, therefore, he is not lying now.’ But that only has a chance of working if he avoids any fresh lies, and [Anderson] Cooper seems to think Cohen told at least one fresh lie in this case.”
