The star witness in the Trump trial is creating several issues for prosecutors arguing the case against the former president.
Michael Cohen, the star witness in former President Donald Trump's criminal trial, is becoming an issue for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office.As he awaits his turn to take the stand, Cohen, the former Trump fixer who paid Stormy Daniels a $130,000 hush money payment ahead of the 2016 election, has presented prosecutors with several problems.
'The defense, on the other hand, has sought to undercut Cohen's credibility, telling jurors that Cohen is 'obsessed' with Trump 'even to this day' and that he's seeking to blame his friend-turned-foe for 'virtually all of his problems.'Trump's legal team also used Cohen's podcasts and public comments about Trump to argue that Cohen's 'entire financial livelihood' depends on Trump's 'destruction.
