cohen says, but let's talk about his testimony in that trial because as apologist noted, elie honig lanny davis, when he was here, was talking about how he can do as he can be cross-examined. he went through it with this other trial, not to mention his other testimony before congress, but but there it was tense tell us exactly what happened between trump attorney alina habba and michael cohen in that earlier case. >> so the overarching question here is, has michael cohen really come clean? is he? really now a full truth teller? now if we go back to the new york civil fraud case, judge and gore, and this is earlier this year. michael cohen got on the stand and he was being asked about his guilty pleas when he pled guilty in federal court to campaign finance, tax fraud, bank fraud, and lying to congress and michael cohen said in that case, he said, i lied when i played guilty wasn't actually guilty of bank fraud and tax fraud. and that led to a heated exchange between him and alina habba. there was also a heated exchange about whether donald trump had other specifically told michael cohen t

elie honig, i'll start with, you will the defense get into the substance of these criminal charges with michael cohen tomorrow when they resume their cross-examination what will if the defense does not have to directly confront michael cohen on the substance of the charges. they don't have to put the checks and the left hi jurors and the invoices in front of him. and i actually suspect that donald trump's team will opt not to do that. the reason for that is the burden of proof. the question for the jury is not who has a better story as between michael cohen and the prosecution on the one hand, and donald trump on the other hand. the question is, can the prosecution prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt? and i think to that and you're going to see a defense strategy of these witnesses leading off with michael cohen, are not reliable. they're not credible. they have biases. you can't rely on their testimony and hence, they will argue the prosecution cannot meet its burden tim parlatore, you told me the last time we spoke that the defense needs to attack cohen's story, not just his cred

honig, i'm sorry. said that there had to have been a process at this prosecution laid out that said, regardless of what you think about michael cohen, the documents speak for themselves. did they establish that enough in your view? >> they did not. and elie raises a good point, having been a form of federal prosecutor, someone who i actually try the case against, this would have been handled differently by a federal prosecutor because what you do with a cooperator is simply i'm a bad guy bad guys do things with bad guys bad guys don't bring in good guys to do things. so you may not like me. you may not want to hang out with me, but i know what happened because i was there. what we didn't see here was the ability to actually put the former president in the room knowing and intending. i can have a plumber to my house to fix my pipes. i could be home. i don't know how the plumber does it. michael cohen is the fixer. michael cohen wanted to be chief of staff michael cohen did this. i didn't know what he wa
