If you were the defense attorney what Question would you most like to put to Michael Cohen today?

I’d ask Cohen, “ Knowing Trump as well as you did and seeing how he treats everybody else, why did you have any expectation at all that he would ever pay you back? Don’t you know that the single best predictor of future behavior is past behavior?”

I think the obvious question to Cohen is: "you seem to be quite a slimeball; why should people believe you?"

And I expect Cohen has thought long and hard about how to answer this question.

@ElwoodBlues Perhaps. I am at the place where the only way I see Quad Indicted being found not guilty is if he changes his plea to “not guilty by reason of insanity.”

Also, because Cohen is still on supervised release, he could be sent back to prison if found to have committed perjury. His guilty plea and cooperation agreement wouldn’t cover that.

The worst possible defense would be to continue to hold that Trump didn’t know these women. Every single witness and piece of evidence disproves that!

@KunsanVeteran I wonder—AFAIK, QI has never said under oath that he didn’t know Daniels and Hutchinson. Perhaps he did during a deposition?

If he hasn’t said that under oath, then all of the thousand of times he said it on video won’t matter and he could deny it under oath. But would that ever be the best course for him? I can’t conceive of any scenario where such a denial would benefit him and most likely the opposite!

And now lunch, the prosecution rests, and cross begins after lunch!

Watch for a sideshow in the hallway during/after lunch by Quad Indicted’s “guests” in a vain attempt to disrupt the proceedings. Judge Merchan is already irritated by them!

Cohen is now explaining why he continued to tell some lies after his guilty plea and why accepting the deal offered was a “ Hobson's choice.”
