Michael Cohen’s legal adviser declared Monday that the ex-attorney of former President Donald Trump has atoned for his wrongdoing and will be believed by the hush money trial jury.
“Michael and I talked last night, and we recalled the journey that we’ve been on,” legal crisis manager and attorney Lanny Davis told Mika Brzezinski of MSNBC’s Morning Joe. “In late June of 2018, before he went public, I asked him, ‘How is anyone going to believe you after 10 years of lying for Donald Trump?'”
Cohen responded with a show of contrition and an acceptance of the consequences that would follow, according to Davis.

Cohen will serve as a star witness for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg when he takes the witness stand this week in Trump’s hush money trial, and Davis said that Cohen’s sentiment will be evident in his testimony.
