#Trump #MichaelCohen #Trial
Trump is in the fingers in ears "LA LA LA!" stage of his trial. 🤣🤣🤣
This trial is not about hiding the Mushroom, its about hiding the Money!🍄
Reporting entries in a set of books is not hiding money. And all companies have non disclosure agreements and non compete. Instead of looking at the kickback money to the biden family that is a real threat to our already corrupt government they go after stuff that isn't even a crime. Fat Alvin needs investigated. Our entire Democracy depends on it.
$130,000.00 for a 3 minute date with a 2'' mush 🍄room is a lot of money no matter how anyone tries to slice or dice it.
But for the record, Donnie did play hide the mushroom with Stormy. For the record, Donnie has always wanted to play hide the mushroom with Ivanka. He even told Stormy this dirty little secret.
@@joerogain5025 its ok, i hear he is a bazillionaire.😆
🤣🤏
Go git 'im, Mikey. You're a beacon of truth in the face of CRIMPOTUS.
Hahahaha he was convicted of perjury Hahahaha
@@ericfrechette1974Trump won’t even get on the stand so he won’t perjure himself on this set of facts. I will take Cohen’s testimony over the out of court diarrhea of the mouth lies spewed by Trump. I think the jury will as well.
@@ericfrechette1974yeah, perjury to benefit trump. You conveniently forgot that part. Look, whenever they go after a crime boss, which is what trump is, the only people who have direct evidence against them are other criminals who were part of the operation. Trump deliberately only surrounded himself with people who were willing to engage in criminal activity for him.
@@ericfrechette1974 Trump for gravel pit 2024!
Mr Cohen literally is the one that committed the crime so don't glorify him so much.

Cohen.... don't let them shake you. Tell your truth. And that's it.
"Mr Cohen, do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help you God?"
Cohen: "Yes."

Cohen was Trump in action.
Good way of putting it.

Pray for Michael Cohen, for strength and wisdom and restraint when provoked.
MIchael Cohen is a Great guy who suffered for Greed but he came clean which Trump will never do since he is Hannibal Lecter
Who was a "great guy" btw, according to Trump. 🤔🤭
No he's not a great guy.
He hasn't discovered civic duty or morals.
He's working for his own self interest, just like TFG.
@@jbrow5245 The best people, until they aren't and hiring them is never TFG's fault either.
To his supporters they're all in a conspiracy.
No longer part of it the conspiracy, if they grovel enough to get back in his good books.
It's all so childish and capricious.
@@jbrow5245 does he know he was fictional?
Cohen may be no angel but he's served his time and so should Trump!
Not only did Cohen go to jail, he lost his law license and the respect of his family and his fellow New Yorkers, which he has fought hard to regain. I have deep respect for Michael Cohen and I wish him God speed in all his endeavors going forward.
As do I. He did some very horrible things, but I believe he is really remorseful and just wants the truth to get out there. As Judge Judy is fond of saying, “If you tell the truth, you don’t need a good memory.” Too bad he didn’t learn that lesson a wee bit sooner. Still, I pray that he helps send Trump to prison where he belongs and that he finds peace in himself and that he continues to own his own wrongdoings. -Saoirse, West Belfast, NI
Donnie proves yet again that he's the Clown Prince of Law and Odor.
Huh, really, how?
Stinky is so toasted
Hahahaha. Love it. Just a simple 'Stinky' cracks me up. Thanks. 🙂👍

Michael paid for his actions now is trump’s time to do the same.
He got massive time off his sentence for agreeing to testify against Trump, no quid pro quo there. Smfh
@@msdncispropaganda2188 As long as he tells the truth.
I am biased because I hate Trump and his fake life and fortune based on lies, deception and fraudulent actions.

I recall Omarosa said, You all have no idea what a disaster this administration is. Long ago, and far away.🌎
We see what a disaster the Biden admin is. No thanks.
I remember it very well
It's funny Cohen worked for Rump 10 years .Rump has praised him on video. I mean Rump only hires the best .
The reason he turned against Trump is because he thought he was a certainty for AG when Trump won in 2016. Trump didn't even have him as a coffee boy in his administration hence the nonstop vitriol since.
go Michael 👏🏼
Vote! Stop this nonsens. Trump is not a worthy leader of America.
"ORANGE TURD" IS NOT A WORTHY LEADER IN ( CELL BLOCK C ) !!!
Trump never was a Worthy candidate for any leadership position in this country
AS IF THE "P-€D-0-FIL€" FjoeB IS? 🤣
We Need TRUMP
@@rhondaunger1228 I AGREE !
When it's all said and done, Biden should give Cohen a medal. That would be the icing on the cake.

Biden doesn't DO Victory Laps.
What's really messed up about this trial is even it Trump is convicted he will not see the inside of a jail or prison. Instead, the Judge just might rule that Trump stay away from Cheese Burgers.
That’s not necessarily true, he may be sentenced to jail time if convicted. Considering that the judge has already found him in criminal contempt 10 times, that shows complete disrespect for the court and will likely cause him to receive jail time if convicted.
@@user-gz9dv9oh9o You are right in that a court may take into account the conduct of the Defendant when it comes to sentencing....
Don't some of the charges have minimum sentences attached that require jail time?
This qualifies as a double standard, one for Mr. Cohen and another for Donald Trump, both were guilty of the same crime.
exactly, hence the case.
@@christianmichael1970 yep cohen already convicted and served time
Wrong. Cohen went to prison for tax evasion and lying to congress.
Yes and Cohen served his time and so should Trump!
and one has served his time
Having the paper trail evidence that Cohen had shuts the door on Trumps face.
😅😅😅😅😅😅 you’re joking right well I guess Biden needs to face his crimes he did before he was put in office with out being cognitive tested and is now killing the country. Wow you TDS folks are so stupid.
Cohen had to leave the Trump cult to tell it all . 😂
Wanting America to be great again is not a cult. Believing everything said from those who do not want America great again is. You have no idea what's really going on at all do you?
@@JohnPenn77 Blindly worshipping a guy who wouldn't take a bullet for the people that's worshipping him, that's what makes it a cult. And come off that making America great BS! Why? Because Trump says the same stupid slogan? You really don't have a clue, do you?
@@JohnPenn77 Worshipping a guy who wouldn't walk in front of a speeding bus for you makes it a cult. But you don't have a clue what it is you're talking about, do you?
Put Donnie on the stand. Imagine the perjury!
NDA agreements aren't illegal. Perjury what?
As I understand it, Trump can be put on the stand only by his lawyers and they won't do that because then he could be cross-examined by the other side.
BIDEN 2024 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I AGREE ... BIDEN FOUR MORE YEARS !!!❤💙💙💙
@@michaelhorath6851 4 more years of what? State just one accomplishment of biden's administration that benefited we the people. Do you have eyes and ears? Money says you have no idea of everything happening here and the world over.
Resident Trump needs to take the witness stand and testify.
Show them you're like John Wayne toilet paper...rough 'n tough and don't take any 💩 from anybody!
trump won't take the witness stand, last time he did he pled the fifth over 500 times. This was after trump stated "only guilty people plead the 5th."
Please get this man out of the office enough of this crap America wake up, please
Week 4. The end of this trial is in sight. Things do NOT look good for Donnie. Just remember folks, this is a criminal trial. This means if found guilty, Donnie is taken straight to prison in handcuffs. Sentencing may be scheduled for another day, but Donnie will have to do the Epic Perp's Walk of Shame in cuffs straight to the slammer. Get ready for the prison jumpsuit mugshots.
Committing a crime doing your job is not legal
“They are going to tell a story”
You got that right!
Why, why I ask, do we get minute by minute reports on the testimony, but we can't watch it live streamed?
Some courts don't allow any cameras hence the sketch artists
They probably knew that if it was televised trump and his lawyers would have used it to campaign.
There is no way that judge would allow the public to see how corrupt his court is.
@@argielita Trump for gravel pit 2024!
Please can the media stop talking about Donald Trump trial instead talk about what President Biden do
No it’s history
Biden is never highlighting his achievments. Most people dont't even know much in concrete terms.

@@catsrcool9663 No one cares.
Talk about whatPresident Biden does for the country
Tell us what the Donald did for America /Americans⁉️🎤🔍🔎🤪🙈🙉🙊
Biden reduced inflation, erased millions maybe billions of student debt, created millions of jobs, and is trying to make the mega millionaires and billionaires pay their fair share in taxes. Trump created 8 trillion in debt in 4 years, tried to deny covid existed then told people to inject bleach, and gave the rich huge tax cuts
Biden doesn't do anything but mumble, yell, and 💩 himself 😂
@@catsrcool9663 The unemployment rate has been under 4% for 27 months in a row, the longest stretch in 70 years.
Amazing infrastructure legislation, capped medicine prices for Medicare/elderly, best border bill in decades according to the border patrol union, Lowes unemployment since the end of world War two, brought car manufacturing jobs back to Michigan that trump sent overseas, manufacturing computer chips which created thousands of jobs and no longer need to import them from China, rejoined the G-7 summit that trump pulled us out of, reestablished relationships with our allies after trump had them pulling away from us because they didn't trust him, student loan forgiveness to stimulate the economy even more, pulled our troops from Afghanistan which trump campaigned on but avoided doing so, made insulin affordable for everyone, I could go but my fingers are sore from typing.. trump did absolutely nothing but cause division and line his pockets. Please fact check everything I have stated.
No crime. What is the indictment
Myself, and everyone I know is voting for Trump. I’m the only one who wasn’t a lifetime Democrat before 2024 !!!!🇺🇲 MAGA🇺🇲
a good guys see his lawyer ...never.
trump several time everyday.
speak volume
Draining the swamp! Trump 2024!
Trump is garbage. Do not vote for garbage.
Vote Democrat 💙💙💙
Why? Because you hated being better off on Trump's watch?
@@shlepmessing8703 much better off now with the great President Biden!! 💙💙💙
chris’s stylist deserves a raise
What happens if he gets sick before the presidential nominating convention and can't run?
Two different lawyers; regular lawyers, advised their client to do the right thing and come clean for wrongdoing. While Trump lawyers do what Trump demand them to do so no matter how good a lawyer is, he/she eventually becomes a dumb lawyer.
MORE Charles Colman, please~
They talkin bout Mr. Von Shitzinpants?
The Medias Touch Network is showing us all how ridiculous the networks coverage is. get it together.
Cohens title at trump org was executive vice president.
"Did you work with the press to minimize negative stories?" "Yes".
Said every single team that works for a politician ever. And every famous celeb, and every person of power etc, etc, etc.
You got em now.
Mikeal Cohen one big step to make our elections normal again
How's that when Biden is trying to make migrants voters so we no power left to decide which party we want?

Minnesota for Trump!!
Michael Cohan, you hanging in there don’t let them get you rattled. Just take care of business. Good luck.

Now you're GUILTY!
Wasn't this guy already convicted of perjury?
The defense is going to have a tough time on cross, lol
Right hand ↔️ 👉 ✋ not left hand man 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Com' on man!! You can illegally tape someone right????
Cohen strategy would be repeat everything all the other witnesses have said and then fill in the blanks about his part.
Where is Keith Schiller? Seems he would be a witness, since he's been mentioned, more than once.
Drug test Trump. Stimulant come down. Every day.
Well of course Cohen lied. It is expected as loyalty to trump. Whatever you do, protect trump.
Do you have to picture this as his right hand man? Why don't we just keep with the facts instead of picturing somebody is being what he was not. Bad media
T R U M P 2024 🇺🇸
If I could do a perfect impression of Vladimir Putin, I would call Donald Trump up and tell him to find the highest skyscraper in New York and wobble off of it.
In your dreams pal!
The last trial standing. Lol. TEFLON DON. Trump 2024.MAGA
No, it's not - even though the cultist Judges have tried to cover his back all the time. The other trials will eventually catch-up and when they do, he is toast. Even this trail might result in his going to prison.....
Cohen the convicted Liar.
Guess you all want to forget that your star witness went to prison for lying. How would anyone consider him a credible witness?
Because he knew everything that happened, first hand. Trump was/is a bully! Cohen may be no angel but he's served his time and so should Trump!
What do you not get that he went to jail for the crimes of his boss, djt. How do you not get that?
I'm from Australia. Nothing buy Respect for Michael Cohen. After all that has happened to him. He Stands Tall. The Defense Cross Examination will be a walk in the Park for him, if Prison didn't get him, this will NOT either. Keep Swinging big Mike!!, one tough SOB.
He betrayed him. That's life for everyone
If this were taking place in a country where the super rich aren't above the law, maybe this would mean something. But, seeing as it's happening in the United States, Trump'll have nothing to worry about.
Please, no, that man belongs in prison
@@user-ul4ew7vt7h Well, that's not happening. So, deal with it.
I think Stormy got closer to Trump than Cohen.
Call Trump to the stand and make him take the Fifth in court
while abusing the First outside the Court.

Calm down, reporters are excitable
Trump Trump Trump!!!
I’m sorry but this is something that should never have seen a court of law! There is no law where someone can not pay another to not speak on a matter! Now there are laws where someone can sue another for speaking if they were compensated! This judge and prosecutors should be sued and disbarred!
How did I end up on msnbc? Wth..bye!!
Sycophant - not "syncophant".
I’m old enough to remember when Michael Cohen was the bad guy on MSNBC. Flipitty flop…
Anybody think that he might be just lying again?
If a bull craps in the woods do we hear it hit the ground is the steam a raging forest fire
Another day of Trumps polls getting better.
Cohen has the Goods! 💯 thts why don the con called him a flipper! 🐬🐬🐋🐬
Nobody see how great Biden band is a shame. He’s a great white man appreciate it.
He is lying now
Wondering if Trump will use his falling asleep as an appealable issue? I am thinking that there will be a claim that he was unable to provide his lawyers with information to assist in his defense. If Trump is convicted, guaranteed he appeals, and they will use his falling asleep for something.
In Clinton's case his right hand WAS the issue. I would still like to hear Monica's detailed replay of how bad it must have been giving a by to Bill. Hunter is next on the stand.
while…. DJT and DJTWW stocks are going crazy.
Donald trump: "Yeah, but he's a liar!"
The dynamic here never fails to get a laugh out of me. If you don't get it, then there's nothing I can do to help you. Lol
Convicted liar? Well he's not credible. Hahaha what a joke.
Was lier and in jail… who trust ur lips? Angry blame… won’t work
BS.
Just a warning : nobody can disparage Mr Cohen's behaviour ! Why ? Because that you are working in many business , it is impossible to say the truth to everyone. Any important business is requesting faith, "silence" and often to lie to customers, collaborators, colleagues or even the State's officials. Lie !! All big businessmen have to lie about several aspects of their work , companies etc... also politicians. It is often requested in such areas of commercial, industrial activites management. !!
✊🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Feelings about Trump aside - this all sounds so flimsy. Embarrassing waste of a lot of intelligent people.
So you read the indictment? And you have read all of the court transcripts so you are familiar with all of the evidence and that’s why you are offering your learned opinion? I will wait for the jury who will evaluate all of the evidence before making a pronouncement.
Not flimsy at all. This is about election interference and corruption/false accounting.
The Trumpster ain't worried. Vlade has deeded him his very own kingdom: TRUMPISTAN! It will be the greatest nation in the world. I am very excited to be moving to the soon to be built capital: MAGALOVA.
