Donald Trump's Lawyer Condemns Michael Cohen's Testimony as 'a Lie!'

Trump's Attorney Claims Cohen's Testimony Was False

A lawyer representing Donald Trump loudly declares that Michael Cohen's testimony was untrue.

In court, Donald Trump's lawyer and Michael Cohen engage in a dispute concerning a hush-money payment.

During Thursday's proceedings, Donald Trump's counsel vigorously objected to the prosecution and repeatedly accused key witness Michael Cohen of being untruthful.

Trump’s former lawyer and "fixer," Cohen, faced intense scrutiny as he recounted a direct conversation with the former president about the payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.

Blanche quickly responded, raising his voice and calling Cohen's account "a lie."

He pointed to records showing that Cohen had actually contacted Trump's bodyguard about a prank call, not the payment.

Cohen replied, saying the call also covered the issue of a "14-year-old" prank caller. He knew Schiller was with Trump at the time and insisted the call included more than just the prank.

Cohen said he always consulted "everything with the boss" right away on such matters, including during that call. Blanche loudly responded to Cohen's claim: "That. Was. A. Lie."

The defense's attempt to cast doubt seems ignored as it was part of the witnesses' third-day testimony before the jury.

Blanche sat with her back straight, using threatening gestures, sitting next to Trump. It felt like a collective sigh of relief from those present in the courtroom. The judge announced a court recess for the afternoon.

The charges against Trump are serious, with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. The allegations claim that payments to Cohen were disguised as legal expenses when they were actually reimbursements for the payoff to Daniels, who claims an affair with Trump.

The prosecution argues that Trump wanted to suppress this information to protect his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump has always denied the allegations, pleading not guilty to all charges and denying any sexual involvement with Daniels.

Cohen’s past criminal convictions, including lying to Congress and publicly denouncing Trump, have damaged his credibility as a witness. Despite pleading guilty to federal campaign finance viol

ations related to the hush-money payment in 2018, Cohen insists he acted under Trump's direction.

The defense has focused on Cohen's credibility issues, portraying him as a disgruntled liar with a grudge against Trump.

On Thursday morning, Blanche played excerpts from Cohen's podcast, "Mea Culpa," where Cohen expressed his eagerness to see Trump face justice, stating, "I want this man to go down."

Blanche also pointed out a social media post where Cohen derogatorily called Trump "Dumbass Donald."

When Blanche asked, "Does the outcome of this trial affect you personally?"

Cohen simply replied, "Yes."
