Cohen Probably Blew Bragg's Case Against Trump

Michael Cohen, a convicted serial liar and Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, may have just blown District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s entire case against the 45th president, according to an analysis posted on the X platform following Cohen’s testimony in the ‘hush money’ case on Monday.

On Monday, Cohen stated in his testimony that he had covertly recorded the president discussing a payment to former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker before the 2016 election. He testified that Pecker had given $150,000 to former Playboy model Karen McDougal to buy her story of an alleged affair with Trump and to keep her allegations silent before the election.

Cohen has also played a key role in the ongoing legal case surrounding alleged hush money payments intended to silence Stormy Daniels, the adult film actress who claimed to have had a sexual encounter with Trump in 2006 at a celebrity golf event. The prosecution has depicted these payments as Trump’s efforts to block harmful information from jeopardizing his 2016 presidential bid. Yet, Cohen’s latest testimony offers a contrasting view, suggesting that Trump considered the allegations not at all important to the success of his campaign.
