Trump trial in tatters after Michael Cohen's 'otherworldly' testimony
Jonathan Turley


The completion of the testimony of Michael Cohen left the prosecution of Donald Trump, like its star witness, in tatters.

In the final day of cross-examination, Cohen admitted to committing larceny in stealing tens of thousands of dollars from his client.

Even more notably, he admitted to the larceny on the stand — after the statute of limitations had passed. There will be no dead felony zapped back into life against Cohen, as it was for Trump.

Cohen clearly has found a home for his unique skill as a convicted, disbarred serial perjurer.

Given the prejudices of the judge and prosecutor and the very real possibility that the jury is packed with facts-be-damned Trump-Haters, does Cohen's credibility dearth even matter?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

I'm praying for at least one decent juror to hang it.

Among the three possible outcomes - "Guilty", "Not Guilty", hung jury - my guess is that there will be one or more jurors honest and persistent enough to create a hung jury. A fully impartial jury would return a "Not Guilty" verdict, but I know Trump-Hating hyper-partisans were trying to get on the jury, and Bragg and the judge made no significant effort to prevent that.

Ok ...I've been praying for Trump, and I'll also pray for at least one decent juror to hang it as well.

Personally, I think you can only pray for God's will to be done. I'm not wise enough to know otherwise.
