#Hoffinger, the prosecutor, asks #MichaelCohen why he paid the money to #StormyDaniels. Cohen says he did so to #influence the #election, & that he did so at #Trump’s direction. This is a summary of the key themes & may signal that direct examination is coming to an end soon.
Trump’s lawyers are on edge thru this part of Cohen’s testimony. #Blanche & #Bove pass notes.
Trump, however, appears to be dozing peacefully. #NodFarter
