Jurors focus on Cohen as he defends anti-Trump merch: 'Send him to the big house, not the White House!'
After admitting that 'sure' he would like to see Trump convicted, Cohen is forced to confront anti-Trump items for sale on the web site for his podcast.
That includes a t-shirt that depicts Trump in an orange jump suit behind bars that Cohen was asked about.
It's part of an effort by defense lawyers to paint him as biased.
'Sure,' Cohen responded, with two jurors immedaitely turning their heads to catch his answer.
'If you go to the section that says mea culpa this shirt is available for sale. That’s one item,' Cohen said, getting in a plug with his answer.
'You actually wore that t-shirt last week on your ticktoc didn’t you on Wednesday night" Blanche asked trying to land a blow with the question.
'I did,' Cohen said, admitting to information that was widely available.
'Actually encouraging peole to go buy it right?' Blanche asked.
'Yes. It’s part of the merch store,' was Cohen's dry response.
