#MichaelCohen
Who is the biggest lier sitting in that courtroom. It would be a shame if Michael is so disregarded because of past bad behaviors that he has served time for and is now seeking forgiveness and looking for redemption. Unfortunately you all want to continue to call him a liar.
how do you know he's seeking forgiveness and redemption? what if he's seeking revenge instead? how do you tell what he's looking for? who are you?

Down with Trump up with Jesus !!
Trump destroys people's lives. Look how many people have gone to prison because of him. They do his dirty work and they go to prison.
Now God is seeking vengeance on Trump.
He just lied! Trump 2024!
@@num1rltyguy Down with Trump , up with Jesus !!!
People who support Trump are wicked evil and have no conscience.
How many times did Waltine Nauta change the diapers today???
Not often enough, apparently. Trump had a good five yard clear circle around him.
Does Cobb still have his bar license? LOL You have to ask when it comes to former Trump attorneys, you can't assume any more.
He's probably the only one who does. Lol
Rudy on the lam from Arizona...hiding out on Florida, drunker than a fraternity house after a ball game.
Where is Melania?
Where is Rudy?
Tick. Tock. Trump.
Justice. Is. Coming.
He wasn’t Trump’s attorney, he was the attorney for the Office of the President, there’s a difference
Don’t forget the documents, the data, the messages…this is all bs.
he's not going to testify stop pretending
He's the one who said he couldn't testify because of the gag order. A blatant lie. Someone needs to call his bluff. Absolutely everyone knows it would be stupid for him to testify. He brought it on himself, implying he would if he could. He can but he won't. He's a lying coward.
The narcissistic personality disorder is strong with the orange one. He wouldn't last a minute on the stand before he lies and perjures himself .
A cereal perjury guy, sank the ship! Trump 2024!
Robert Costello Cohen's old lawyer proves Mr Trump is innocent. Coming soon.
@@num1rltyguywheat or oats? Or are you trying to use the word. “Serial”? Why is it that MAGA can’t spell or use basic English?
Your not to bright, but you know that about yourself don't you.
@@captretired159 you mean: you’re not too bright. Ironic that you make two basic mistakes in a short sentence intended to suggest someone else’s stupidity.
You know that the judge wouldn't allow you to quit at this stage of the trial. Especially not for the reason that Trump wants to exercise his constitutional right to take the stand. I don't believe he will. But I would love for him to do it.
No i want him to testify...please trump please testify.
Exactly. Trump you promised the American People you would take the stand!
You want to be president of the United States! Take the stand!
Can you imagine him at testimony . He be playing that accordion at mock 10.
So……because he couldn’t remember are you kidding me
1st day in law school, never ask a question unless you already know the answer. Ty Cobb is right, the Prosecutors have serious questions to answer . If Trump snatches victory from the jaws of defeat, I give up. Clearly he is above the Law..
Documents don’t lie, if it’s about lies then trump should’ve been in prison along time ago dont cha think
The documents don't show nearly what you think they do. That's why they needed Cohen. But Cohen imploded.
“That’s why I expect this jury to convict” 🙏
bingo - NOT “Cohen’s words against everyone else” shave
99 percent conviction rate.
no chance stop dreaming
@@matthewmay6850for federal cases,this is state
@lowboyyy thanks lowboy perhaps 10% we will see?
Judge Engoron said Cohen was a believable witness.
Lol
Donald this is your perfect chance to show the whole world your totally perfect stable genius mind‼️.
NO ONE CAN TESTIFY LIKE YOU ‼️ TESTIFY‼️ TESTIFY‼️ TESTIFY‼️
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just what I posted. He's a tough guy who's inoccent rt? Show Maga how tough you are. I've been in county jail. He can't handle jail for a day. Or the truth. Fact is.. He's a COWARD!!!!!
Trump: "I'd love to testify, but unfortunately my bone spur has been acting up, and gravitated to my mouth."
Those imaginary "Big strong men, with tears in their eyes" who keeping coming up to Trump might appear in his imagination again. "Sir," they'll say, "Don't testify. We beg you not to testify."
Waste of time listening to these two
Annoying
Give me a break. Trump's attention span is far less than 96 seconds!
You arejust very kind to him
@@pedroh3774this attorney has been disbarred 😅😅😅
@@johnkellet9245Trump’s personal lawyer you mean? Remind us where Trump’s chief financial officer is now, for the second time. So sad that so many of Trump’s associates turn out to be liars and crooks. Thank heavens he remains pure.
How come MSNBC is not talkin about Costello. Robert Costello, former Cohen lawyer testified before the red tie brigade that Cohen is fake and told him I swear to God, Bob, I don’t have anything on Donald Trump,'"
I can hardly wait for the redirect
tfg would LOVE his lawyers to quit right about now and ty cobb knows it. it would take another year to redo the trial.
His own lawyers trapped him. I bet he did not see that coming.
I have never seen a grown man not try to defend himself take the stand trump and defend yourself please 🙏 😂
Ya he should take the stand.
He is a coward !
and documentation!
He's going down either way. Why not let him go down in the most spectacular way by testifying?
I totally disagree.
..it’s almost like there’s no transcript..WTH is up with these narratives..other than drama and ratings..catchy headlines
Nice to hear from Ty Cobb. Thank you. How about Maggie Herman and Harry Litman? Please. 🙏
I think that prosecutors should redirect Cohen. They only need to clear up a few points. It shouldn't take more than an hour or two.
Oh, they will. Your rt.
I do agree with Cobb on letting go, however I have an issue with the fact that Trump's lies are not taken into consideration. Trump has a very long history of lying about many things. Cohen has owned his, that makes a difference.
C'mon Donald...take the stand....be a man....are you going to take this sitting down?
(If only that would work)
It probably would work, except his lawyers would quit like Ty Cobb said. That seems to be one of the few ways to control him. Remember when he almost made Jeffrey Clark acting attorney general? The whole top echelon of the DoJ threatened to quit, so Trump backed off and launched the January 6th insurrection instead.
@@racookster Very astute. Another delay if his lawyers quit. We just need ONE good person.
No need, Michael just sank the ship!
Take the stand Trump. It's your big chance.
@@racooksterlawyers do not have the option to quit mid-trial. If Cobb doesn't know this, he is an incompetent fool.
At this point the judge can refuse a lawyer to resign this would be perceived for delays
The problem is that no judge would allow a change of lawyers mid-trail. Once a trial is underway and a jury is impaneled, a change of lawyers would result in such a lengthy delay that the jury would need to be dismissed and the trial started over. Also, the new trial would have to be put off several months in order for the new lawyer to get up to speed!
Given that this defendant has notoriously used delay as a legal weapon, the judge would be even more leery about allowing this!
Mid trial, the attorneys can't just quit, so threatening that isn't much of a threat is it ?
If you have a client who insists on testifying and you know your client is going to lie, what you do is let the client testify in a narrative fashion, then not argue the client’s testimony to the jury. But you tell the client and the judge what you’re doing and why.
So embarrassing for the defense today.
Can diaper don stay awake for testimony??? Sleepy Don needs his uppers and a fresh diaper change by Waltine Nauta, then he will be ready!!!
what do you call rich people who lie and surround themselves with criminals
😇yes that was a prosecution slip - they could have decided not to put that conversation in evidence, there being other evidence that proves the trump knew and directed this whole affair. or they could have explained it in advance. the instinct would be to rehabilitate but as Ty Cobb says, that allows another go for the defense to after him. for trial lawyers, different strokes for different folks...blessings to all
Trump will stiff him win or lose.
Except him likely got his entire fee doubled in advance.
The case was incredibly weak to begin with. But after Cohen, I would be shocked if there was a conviction.
Love this guy
Take the stand TRUMP - like you promised the American People you would!
I have a little crush on Ty! 😂❤
Liberals are in panic mode.
Looks like they're not going to 'Get Trump' episode 6,451,795
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wouldn’t calling Keith Schiller to the stand resolve the questions?
Well the hustle money call to Donald Trump from Michael Cohen was on 15 seconds! So, 190 seconds is more then enough to between the Brady guard and Donald Trump
These text mean absolutely nothing. Smh. 🤦🏾♂️ the gaslighting from corporate media has been soo misleading.
Donald Trump should held accountable
For what none of you democrats supporters even know what day it is let alone what he did wrong. Because you're probably from another country.
Go MAGA n Make America's Grifter Accountable
for falsifying business records 9 years ago? lol
@lowboyyy Yeah, as if Trump keeps the ledgers anyway.
He won’t be in this case unfortunately.:( Cohen reminds me of a few people I know they just lie to lie. The ultimate one upper!
It's a Documents case.
I wonder if blanch just wanted to become famous 😂
Like Heinrich Himmler famous?
I would love to hear it...ten lies in five minutes.
Once he said he wanted to testify but couldn't because of the gag order he needs to be called out for being a coward if he doesn't testify. He tells his lawyers what to do, not the other way around. Indeed it would be incredibly stupid for him to take the stand, which is why he should have kept his mouth shut and not lied as a reason for not testifying. Someone needs to call his bluff through a very big microphone.
Ask Schiller whether he passed the phone
He will probably lie for Tmp and how can they prove it if he does 😣
No offence.
Mr. "Umm"
If you were a competent lawyer, you'd still work for Trump .
He’s sunk no matter what he does
too scared !!
Second biggest liar?? I reckon Trump could take Cohen in that sphere any day.
Ty Cobb - A national treasure!
Ig the defence brings in stiller it’s over
A notorious Trump-hating Attorney
More people watch Fox than cnn and MSNBC combined.
That's why there is so much division in the country. FOX propaganda. They are not news.
Hold Trump Accountable !!!
You've lost weight Santa. How's the Mrs.
Oh please, you are here talking about more than one thing.
🐂...💩 Blanche definitely a good actor 😤
You're not a good lawyer
If not guilty and can prove it …TESTIFY🎼…DUH DUH DUMB
IF not guilty and you know it …TESTIFY🎼 DUH DUH DUMB🎉
If not guilty and you know it, then you want the world to know it🎼
If not guilty and you know it …TESTIFY🎼 DUH DUH DUMB 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well, you're not his attorney and there's probably a good reason why you're an "ex Trump attorney," too. Only people getting rich off this travesty of taxpayer money waste are the lawyers.
Ty Cobb is ex-White House counsel not donnie's private attorney. Big difference.
You don't think Trump is getting rich off all those donations from suckers like you? He is a conman and he is paying the price for his illegal acts. No one is above the law and he needs to be held accountable. He and the GOP doing their utmost to diminish our legal system by trying this case in the media. Let the courts do their job.
So disappointed in Ty Cobb
I agree with Mr Cobb. Thank you for speaking truth to power.
Really? What bit do you agree with, exactly? A lawyer does not have the option to quit mid-trial.
Krriyosity rour
Wow the comment section is lame. A bunch of people who have no idea what the supposed crime was and just how weak it is to begin with. Almost like they judge everything by thier feelings.
Well enlighten us then,explain what the crime is…
@@leroylindsay7654 I say there isn't a crime.
I feel sorry for this jury.
well stormy was paid thousand dollars that sa
The case is a total joke!
jokes on you
Hack lawyers
MSNBC might as well merge with Fox...Geez ! She is pathetic !
When people are so biased and they hear anything fair. They are suddenly triggered..lol
Cohen looks like a mess , guilt faced liar
So what Ty. That call isn’t going to change the mind of the jurors with this mountain of evidence. Some of jurors were laughing at Todd.
You might want to get your information from more unbiased points of view.
Just sayin’…..
NO ONE LIES MORE THAN tRUMP!!! VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙💙
Actually 90 seconds is plenty of time for an update between familiar coworkers.
Unfavorable comment about Ty Cobb. Unfavorable comment about Donald Trump. Sorry...that's what's left after editing.
lolol Trump 2024!
Prison 2024 Trump
Oh not damaging to Michael Cohen it’s a shame the trump team have nothing to implicate Cohen because Cohen had already explained why he lied 😢😢😢😢
Redirect and be silent for 96 seconds. It's way longer than it sounds.
Thou shall not lie. (everything counts in small amounts....lying can be deadly. I hate Satan). All this is such a waste of government time ....I hate Satan and his trickery. BTW....I'm not really following.....but God is.
Damaging to who. Trump is going to jail
I didn't know Burl Ives was still alive!
😂😂😂
During Donald Trump’s attempts to pressure Raffensperger into changing the election results, Trump said, "I just want to find 11,780 votes", the minimum number needed to overcome Biden's advantage in Georgia.
Yeah the history of your ex lyjng client you are not one to talk
Leading the witness.
Documents do not lie! This anchorwoman is already one of the worst I know and on top of that an absolutely prejudiced conversation partner Cobb. What happened is a trifle in relation to the overwhelming mountain of testimony and evidence.
Can't have bother convos in 96 seconds as he explains the whole case in 90 seconds... sure Spanky...sure
every juror knows in their hesrt donny gotta go, he has deeply insulted everybody on jury....like Capone society has had enough, AND evety juror lived through GW &9/11...gop madness the last 25 yrs must stop
Mike can't out lie Trump! It's possible Mike made an honest Mistake about this phone call. Documents not lies😮
don't forget Cohen was hired and coached by Team Trump...you get what you pay for
This guy is a MAGAt !!!!!
Let 45 testify and show his colors !!!!!!
They are Red , white, and Blue. That's why he will be 47 soon.
Amen!!!!
Not Donald J Trump not okay work vote 2024
Really? Highly damaging? How can I establish reasonable doubt? Using phone call! Jury will convict.
😂😂😂trump is not that brave,
A guilty client has to shut up, this in itself says a lot
