Former fixer Cohen tells court Trump approved hush money payment
ai generated text
Cohen's testimony on Monday linked Trump to all aspects of the hush-money scheme, stating that Trump promised to reimburse him for the payments and was constantly informed about efforts to bury stories that could harm his 2016 presidential campaign. The prosecution has presented various evidence, including text messages, audio recordings, notes, and other documents, to support Cohen's claims.
He said to me, 'Don't worry, I'm the president of the United States, there's nothing here, everything is going to be OK, stay tough, you're going to be OK,'
Because I was staying on Mr Trump's message that there was no Russia, Russia, Russia.
It won't bring back the year that I lost or the damage done to my family. But revenge is a dish best served cold.
You better believe that I want this man to go down.
He wasn't even thinking about Melania, this was all about the campaign.
Yes, I recall making a statement like that ... that they were extorting Mr. Trump.
I do have a lot of surrogates and they are speaking very beautifully.
Frankly, our constitution is much more important than jail.
You've blamed … Your bank? Your accountant? You blamed federal prosecutors? The judge? President Trump?
Is it fair to say you're motivated by fame?
Does the outcome of this trial affect you personally?
We are not asking for your belief. This jury does not want to hear what you think happened.
The reason you lied to a federal judge was because stakes affected you personally?
And his word has been highly suspect from the beginning of this case, given that he's gone to jail for lying under oath in the past.
Mr Trump, it's important you understand, the last thing I want to do is put you in jail. You are the former president of the United States and possibly the next president as well.
