Michael Cohen, former President Donald Trump’s lawyer and alleged fixer, should wear a warning label when he takes the witness chair in New York’s criminal hush money trial. Handle with care. Following Stormy Daniels’ at times intense testimony, Cohen is scheduled to testify Monday. He will likely be the prosecution’s final major witness against Trump, who is facing 34 felony counts for creating false business records to conceal a campaign finance crime.
Last week the Republican-controlled House Judiciary Committee sent a referral to the Justice Department alleging that Cohen had lied to Congress six times, although such a move is mostly just symbolic. All of this to say, Trump’s lawyers will have plenty of ammunition with which to impugn Cohen’s credibility. Indeed, the fierce and strident tactics used against Daniels last week may end up feeling like just a warmup compared to Cohen’s cross.
