they can convict without even hearing michael cohen. the second one is did donald trump lie? you just saw him when he described the $35,000 a month checks that he signed and sent to michael cohen while sitting president. did he lie when he called them legal fees rather than reimbursements for the advances that michael paid for the hush money and for other things? the answer is, don't believe michael cohen believed allen weisselberg's handwritten notes in which he took $110,000 doubled it, and then described in his own handwriting that that doubling is a reimbursement to michael cohen. if you just look at that document, it's about math and not about legal fees. >> it's interesting though, because weisselberg himself didn't testify and there were reports of cohen's testimony that he didn't corroborate, for example or he didn't testify that the payments that were made to daniels that he told trump that they might be legal. he also didn't testify that he counseled trump to falsify those business records you don't think lanny that there are potentially gaps in his testimony? >> th

the credibility of michael cohen. i think it should be obvious to anyone who's followed the trial it's a super risky strategy to say the least for the prosecution. to the extent the jury has questions about facts and credibility and evidence about what trump was thinking they are going to be weighing the testimony of michael cohen's own who served time in jail against the testimony of all these other witnesses who have not been convicted of lying under oath are serving time in jail i think it underscores the da has an uphill battle in trying to persuade the jury why they should believe someone like michael cohen. >> trace: and effect some other witnesses said this. talking about michael cohen and you had pecker sang prone to exaggeration you had hicks sing used to like to call himself mr fix it but it was only because he first broke at. keith davidson his description of cohen quoting a hostile barrage of insults, insinuations and allegations. you was just screaming. and then gary barrow agrees with the defence attorne

cohen so that he will try to minimize the necessity for michael cohen's testimony, michael cohen's evidence and have thehe jury pretty much understand the case was proven and michael cohen tie td all up, filled in some gaps. but everything critical he said necessary to find mr. trump's guiltin had already been corroborated and proven through other witnesses, through exhibits, through allen weisselberg's notes on the actual documents which were actually the bank records michaeltu cohen had, the notes how the repayment would be made, all those things. i think that's going to be very important. the defense is going to try to hammer michael cohen's credibility and suggest he was acting independently, to the extent there was an conspiracy here. >>ns michael cohen acting rogue doesn't make sensect as a human being, but again i'm not a lawyer. you wrote a piece this morning and had a lot of interesting pieces in it. as mary just said their strategy seems to be around michael cohen's credibility. and you basically argued in your piece michael cohen admitting to his lies may help with the jury credi

cohen, to throw doubt's on michael cohen's credibility. i don't think that was accidental. a second thing to consider is one of the pieces of evidence introduced during michael cohen's testimony was an e-mail from bob costello when the trump camp was worried about michael cohen going rogue because donald trump, i think, didn't have the sensibility to try to keep michael cohen in the tent much earlier than they did before they realized it was a problem that he might turn on them. costello said michael, you know, we love you. and then he was basically working as an ambassador for rudy giuliani at that point as well. and it was a sort of bear hug they were trying to put around him. michael cohen was asked what he made out of that e-mail. i think they were worried i was going to flip. i didn't trust for a minute that any loved me or were looking out for my best interests. the testimony is he's looking out for donald trump's interests overall, and he's trying to pollute through his testimony the public's view of michael cohen's credibility. and
