- Donald Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen is testifying at a New York court in the ex-president's historic hush-money trial.
Mr Cohen alleges that the former president told him to be prepared for "a lot of women" who could come forward when he entered the presidential race.
It's alleged that Mr Cohen paid adult film star Stormy Daniels $130,000 (£104,300) to stay quiet about claims that she and Mr Trump had sex in 2006.
Mr Trump is accused of trying to cover up the payments he made to reimburse Mr Cohen by fraudulently recording them in his business records.
Mr Trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records to conceal the payment and denies any sexual encounter with Stormy Daniels.

RUMP'S BIG MOUTH IS
E V I D E N C E😂😂
"he has been using derogatory nicknames" my guy what has Trump been calling any of his opponents or detractors for decades. Anything but their god given names thats for sure
Love the way his lawyer looks like he's about to soil his pants .
‘There’s 100,000 people trying to get here to protest but they’re blocked from coming’… this guy is such a shameless bs merchant. The stupid media just give him free airtime to spew his nonsense and bolster his supporters. What a crazy carry on.
When i pay an electrician i pay the electrician not a solicitor
He thinks he’s slick talking with little false equivalencies like that, but we can all see straight through it 🙄
What a stupid comparison 😂
Why does he talk about himself in the third person?
Good question. Perhaps a certain amount of unreality is part of life for him. Indistinguishable from business as usual.
This trial would be so entertaining if it was aired on live TV.
It is not intended to be entertaining. It is supposed to search for the truth that Trumpf hid behind a magic mushroom.
Agreed. Plus i think it would legitimately be in the public interest.
Not as interesting if the Clinton’s was on trial 😉
Trump would be hilarious to watch though because he would have to keep up with the act constantly and he wouldn't be able to I bet 😂 he would spurt out something he always does
Most likely they are not airing on relief. Order to hault the Trump plague and allow some sense of PTSD relief.
Trumps position will be him touching his toes so everyone can see and hear clearly from where his ideas come from clearer to hear him speak 😅
You guys are all so eloquent, I bet this comment was a side-splitter even before the edit.
Wow, unbelievable levels of intellectual idiocy going on here. So your argument for him being guilty is that he's talking out of his arse? Very smart of you
@@calumstewart7665 Have you actually listened to him before 😳 😂 He has got form " Trump Ordered to Pay $2 Million Over Scam Foundation " 2019 lol
@@calumstewart7665the original comment made no mention of guilt.
It's quite fair to suggest that, much like flies are drawn to excrement, individuals of lesser intellect tend to gravitate towards each other. When someone in a position of power exhibits traits of instability, narcissism, and a disregard for rules, it inevitably garners the attention of those who share similar inclinations. If this individual has achieved anything noteworthy, it's perhaps in highlighting to the world the absurdity of his character, consequently revealing the true nature of those who rally behind him.
You are a phony.
I mean you're the personification of the Dunning-Kruger effect by that statement alone. Lol
@@garethholman1050I guess I'll take that as a compliment! After all, if I'm embodying the Dunning-Kruger effect, at least I'm confidently unaware of it! Maybe I should put that on my CV: "Expert in the art of blissful ignorance!

Reading about "rigged jury" is a gag order violation.
Aren't you clever
Rigged jury, rigged judge, rigged charges.
@alexbowman7582 no not rigged, tRump finally being held accountable for his criminal life. Now Chicago wants tRump to pay them $100 million in unpaid taxes...this came out of his other civil conviction. Everything he touches, dies or is a gift. A putrid excuse for a human piece of garbage.
Pathological Liar always
So no evidence..... other than evidence of political lawfare.... again. Imagine my shock
How about the bank payments..?
How's that political lawfare?
@@killerrabbit2693it’s not illegal to pay hush money and listing it as legal fees is a time barred misdemeanour. It doesn’t matter if Trump knew. The Supreme Court will laugh this out.
@alexbowman7582
2 things.
It's illegal to pay hush money using public funds.
And these funds were used to keep a woman quiet to help your God's campaign.
2. Liking your own comment is pathetic.
@@killerrabbit2693 how does it compare in terms of campaigning to Hillary Clinton paying $1 million listed as legal fees for the commission of the faked Steele dossier on the Trump Russian collusion hoax (the Democrats were fined $113,000 for election violation) which they pushed through two elections, an attempted impeachment and negative publicity despite knowing it was fabricated? And the Trump payment wasn’t from public funds it was from his own money. Trump Russian collusion was invented to deflect criticism away from Hillary’s stupidity of putting secret documents on a server which was hacked along with her emails. She deleted evidence smashing phones and wiping data and even laughed at a commission hearing over it asking “what do you expect me to do?”. Still she must feel she’s free from any chance of conviction in a DC courtroom.
This is the stupidity America has to deal with daily.
Is that Eric Trump in the back? Or people trying to be on tv?
Thank you BBC News.
All I want to hear is Twenty years in jail.

If you ask the question "Where in the body do you feel yourself?", most will answer that in the upper body. Mostly in my head.
The phone call isn't in the head listen to the call,. That was Trumps what to get to the White House #Cohen paid with a check that was his mistake. Trump told him to use cash..
Thanks for focusing on the actual charges. It's too easy to lose sight of the actual alleged crimes amidst all the sex hubbub.
Quite right.
Trump's on trial for covering up payments to Cohen and calling them legal expenses.
Why this Stormy Daniels was questioned about the sordid details was quite unnecessary.
There's no charge Dear.
it's all distraction because there is no crime----nothing illegal, nothing proven.
The Donald is going down hard like all Mob bosses should.🙄🤔
Lol. Mob bosses indeed. Some people live inside their own imagination
No one's ever seen a waist of space like Trump run for president 2 times either..
He is merely reading (barely) his ego boosting talking points scrounged by his minions.
In future, don't give him so much air time. We're so sick of hearing his BS spewing voice.
BS
If he is so innocent WHY keeping asking for immunity and mistrial ?! I'm sick to my stomach
Did you see the CNN piece by Fareed Zacharia this weekend 😳
He answered your questions, but not the answers you seem to want!
Because it's a valid legal argument and may well end the trial earlier to both save him time and money. Time he could better spend campaigning.

Cause his supporters only care about crimes that trump's opponents commit.

You still searched and clicked on an article about him though!
He should speak at his trial if he thinks this is true but he wont he hasn't got the balls

Trump used his own money and got indicted??😂😂

OK, he was Trumps lawyer and he paid an expense in the legal service of Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump paid his legal bill. I honestly don't see am issue here.
Maybe you need to educate yourself on the details of the case.

It would be hilarious if Trump got acquitted, then managed to delay all his other trials... and then lost the election and had to face the music.
The Jack Smith secret documents trial has been postponed indefinitely whilst the Georgia trial has been wrecked by Fani Willis. If the Georgia trial does eventually happen then it will be closely orchestrated to prevent the defence proving in court that it was indeed fraudulent. Trump was winning easily until mysterious stops at many counts followed by very late surges in mail in ballots almost all for Biden.

Why the accent ? 🤔
This guy thinks that its a popularity contest. He never understood his presidential job. For him its just a show. In his case it became a comedy show unfortunately or like he says fortunately. Not only that, usually, rich people give to the poor. In his case, its the poor that's giving him money. Have you ever seen this before?
I mean... it kinda is... that's how democracy works, the people vote for the candidate they want.
True, first time around he let the deepstate derail him. He didn't really understand. I'm sure this time around he'll clean house though, especially given how blatantly fascist the current regime is. Thanks to Elon and the twitter files.
He's given to the poor, both time and money. He's always buying food for first responders. He helped a mother with terminal illness even personally writing to her. He has ensured that her son will be looked after when she's gone. Look beyond the mainstream lies and learn. You need to leave that echo chamber behind it does you no service.

Millions of dollars of free advertising as he sells his propaganda. You are an embarrassment to journalism.
