In a dramatic turn of events, Michael Cohen, the former fixer for Donald Trump, took the stand yesterday at Trump’s criminal trial and dropped bombshell revelations. Cohen testified that the hush-money payment he made to Stormy Daniels was done at Trump’s direction, with Trump allegedly telling him, “Just do it.” This testimony is crucial in prosecutors’ efforts to link Trump to a conspiracy to bury Daniels’s account of a 2006 sexual encounter.
Cohen, who once boasted about burying Trump’s secrets and spreading his lies, admitted to lying and bullying for Trump, acting as a “thug” to protect his boss. He described Trump as a micromanager who was focused on his campaign above all else, contradicting the defense’s claims that Trump was unaware of Cohen’s actions.
As Cohen faces cross-examination from the defense, the trial continues to unfold with high stakes for both Trump and Cohen. Stay tuned for more updates on this gripping legal battle.
