So Trump will not testify. I'll be somewhat damned. I thought he'd go for it, especially after his promises and all the fake fuss about the gag order. Blanche and Co. did a good job of talking him out of it.
I hope the prosecution has no rebuttal, and says they can do closings tomorrow. We could get a verdict this week . . . . .
Prosecution will put Cohen back on the stand to redirect so that Cohen can fill out proper nuanced answers to the 'yes or no' questions from Blanche.

It's too late to explain away the devastation. good luck!
I forgot Robert "Stink/Side-Eye" Costello was the one who typed that email to Cohen. Did the defense or prosecution ask about that today? That is one ugly looking exhibit for Trump. How do you explain that away?

Did they prosecution say they're bringing Cohen back? Seems like a bad move. Everyone has had enough of Cohen at this point. The prosecution should be trying to get this in the jury's hands by Thursday morning (Wednesday is off) and use the weekend to pressure them into a verdict by Friday afternoon.

I'm just speculating. But that thing about the phone call where 'crying little chit' Blanche squealed 'You lied!' can be clarified.
Trumps entire defense is that payments to Cohen were absolutely NOT reimbursements. They were attorney fees
Yet this 30K that Cohen stole from Trump Co was because Cohen fudged his accurate reimbursement amount. And the defense was ok categorizing it as a reimbursement.
I wonder if the jury will hear again about that inconsistency.

There are some minor bumps on the road, but the fact pattern is supportive of a guilty verdict. Problem is of course that all it takes is one m6ga chud in the jury willing to push aside the judge's instructions on fact reliance for the prosecution to lose.
.Judge Merchan to Robert Costello before clearing the courtroom. "I'd like to discuss proper decorum in the courtroom...If you don't like my ruling, you don't give me side eye and you don't roll your eyes." Then in a raised voice, Merchan asks, "Are you staring me down right now?!"
Judge Me (in presence of jury): "Mr. Costello, would you like to be spanked with a magazine?"

The prosecution did not do enough to prove Trump guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a legitimate court of law. But this is NYC, and there’s a 90% chance each juror has already convicted Trump prior to the trial. This case would never have seen the light of day in most any other court in this nation. Merchan losing his cool is just one more sign of the political bent of the entire charade. The donations to the Biden campaign and the massive amount of money his daughter hauled in for Authentic.

Anyone who thinks a lawyer for a BILLIONAIRE took out a HELOC on his own home to pay for his boss's affair because his boss told him to is a f*cking moron.

Regardless, hush money is NOT a campaign expense.
At the risk of indulging your endless, uninformed, false, naive and stupid posts, the real fvcking morons in your hypothetical above would seem to be those, like you, who apparently believe a wheel-and-deal huckster lawyer like Cohen would take out a HELOC on his home to pay off his serial lying boss' hookers without an agreement from the boss to be reimbursed (and more). Which, lo and behold, is exactly what happened according to corroborated and unrebutted testimony and admitted documentary evidence. See, e.g., Exhibit 35.

I'm reading now that the schedule is:
Stink-eye Costello back on tomorrow morning. (Hope the prosecution is allowed to ask who the "friends in high places" are). Maybe a prosecution rebuttal witness will be on too. Something about a Schiller-Trump photo.
Wednesday is off every week for some weird reason.
Then parties argue jury instructions on Thursday.
Apparently the jury is off on Friday and next Monday for Memorial.
Closing arguments next Tuesday the 28th. Jury begins deliberating next Wednesday morning (unless they have that off too) or next Thursday. So verdict by end of next week . . . . ?
Note that Costello is falsely labeling this (and every other email) with Cohen as "Attorney-Client Communication Privileged" even though it is not (as he testified today, he was never Cohen's lawyer). So he's just trying to protect this "communication channel" from Cohen to Trump via Costello and Giuliani from legal discovery. Who the fvck does this subterfuge sh!t except criminals? These guys learned their tradecraft from Giuliani and the Ravenite gang.
Any of my fellow Trump-lovin peeps want to drop into the 'official LRC Defendant Donald' thread to comment on Truth Social's latest quarterly filing? It's a doozy. It's also easy to find in the news.
Congratulations to the defense for calling a witness that just provided motive for why Cohen stopped lying for Trump and turned on him. He was being coerced and threatened by mob boss Don the Con.
