verdantsquare, Will Michael Cohen’s testimony sway jurors in Trump’s hush-money trial? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/18/michael-cohen-testimony-donald-trump-trial?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #worldnews #guardian
FrankFrank, 
Everything Cohen testified to is corroborated by other witnesses & physical documents.
Too much attention is being generated around Michael Cohen's testimony, because Cohen is the target of the tRUMPublican 'Blue Suit Red Tie Coup-Groupies' task of discrediting 'tRUMP's Fixer Bagman'.
Most media represents the tRUMP controlled narrative, which is a faulty point of view.
