THE DEFENSE RESTS.
Trump will not testify.
Robert Costello was back on the stand this morning.
Costello said he felt he was representing Cohen as his lawyer. The prosecution tried to say he was actually representing Trump's interests.
They got him to admit that Cohen never signed a legal retainer and that at one point Cohen said him an email to "cease" contacting him. Cohen was under FBI investigation at the time and would eventually go to jail. Costello was shown several of his emails mentioning Giuliani and things like "friends in high places."
He sent this email shortly before Cohen hired another lawyer.
Email from Costello to his partner on June 22, 2018, subject line "Michael Cohen."
"Cohen has to know this yet he continues to slow play us and the President-is he totally nuts???
[...] What should I say to this asshole? He is playing with the most powerful man on the planet."
Trump's lawyer
Q: Did you ever pressure Michael Cohen to do anything? A: I did not.
Q: Did you ever have control over Michael Cohen?
Costello says he did not.
Bove notes that Costello's "friends in high places" email begins "Attorney Client Communication Privileged."
Costello confirms that he believed that was true, and Cohen didn't dispute the characterization in a follow-up email, before cutting ties with him.
Costello said Cohen was slow playing him by not signing the retainer agreement.
Lots of sustained objections during this testimony.
I cant wait for the fake news headlines if he is convicted. "Trump supporters in shock as Trump is convicted!!!" No we are not. We expected it to happen and it will come back to bite you all in the ass
Well, Q followers won't be shocked. Nor worried.
The Q-Aware WANT it to happen
Will be like a catapult sending Trump flying from NYC all the way to the WH where he'll land softly in a pile of MyPillows
My guess is found guilty, because the most tainted biased political hitjob ever seen by a jury not of his peers. Then sentenced. Then appealed. Then appealed higher. Then elected president again. 34 counts, 4 years max each count. The system is broken and corrupt. I would guess 90% of the people know it.
He can pardon himself.
. 34 counts, 4 years
My guess is sentencing would be max 4 years.
Essentially treat it all as part of the same thing.
Yeah, but what they don't understand is that the sentence is actually 4 more years in the White House. Oops.
My prediction: this goes to the jury and they render a verdict of not guilty. This seems to me what is most aligned with the show. The people overrule the Deep State. The improbability makes it even more significant and scary to the left.
I agree, plus two lawyers on the jury that I gotta believe can see through all this horseshit.
Wow they allowed lawyers on this jury??
How'd THAT happen??
IMO the show right now is to SHOW the people how corrupt the system is. So, I would say his arrest would be aligned with the Plan.
This is why Pres Trump said retraining of lawyers and judges in Constitutional law in 2020.
They have to kill the Barr. People should be able to hire an attorney who isn't a Barr lackey. Same with doctors and the AMA commies.
This man has been in business for how many years?
Never once was he arrested did anything wrong.
Since he was President there are like some 92 indictments.
Idiots all of them.
This fucking whack ass judge.
total wack job
A Toobin whack job!
So... no evidence of any crime on Trump's part... no evidence of anything illegal...
Now the judge has to figure out a way to find Trump guilty of something to save his own sorry butt. Maybe Trump can be convicted of littering, or jay-walking.
It's a jury case.
So, the whole jury must agree one way?
And one stated he gets most of his news from Truth Social! Kek
Yes. Otherwise it's a hung jury.
Evidence of more people stealing from him.
There was an excellent meme to the effect of Trump being indicted for not including cheesy bread with the pizzas for the firemen somewhere.
Closing arguments won't be until next week
Fabricated charges and evidence. The only guilty parties are the prosecutor and the judge.
The JURY was rigged, before the Show Trial began.
It doesn't matter that the star witness stole from Trump. It doesn't matter that the woman who is claimed to have had sex with Trump made to affidavits that she never had sex with Trump.
The JURY has already been paid, the Judge's daugher has already cashed in ~$90 Million in "Donations" from the Democratic Congress critters.

Ballsack eyes is truly the greatest nickname for that guy.
Here's some info on the trial, it may not be updated though -

I think of this:
It applies to Trump as well as the one man on the jury that will throw this case into a mistrial

Cohen is looking rather unwell lately. Paler than usual, underslept, underweight. Sure hope the stress of legal defeat is not affecting his health.
What's to stop people from just lying?
Trump will go to prison as a martyr. He will be elected President the next day.
Good. Let the idiot prosecutors get the headlines.
