Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen dropped a bomb in court when he recounted former President Donald Trumps reaction to the prospect of wife Melania Trump finding out about an alleged sexual encounter.
After a week that featured over six hours of testimony from Stormy Daniels in the hush money-election interference trial, Monday will see the all-important testimony of former Trump attorney/fixer Michael Cohen who is the linchpin in the prosecutions case that Trumps alleged falsification of business records constitutes a felony plot to interfere in the presidential election.
Among the revelations Cohen made on the witness stand was a stunningly flippant reaction that Cohen says he got from Trump when he asked about how Mrs. Trump might take it if the story of Trumps sexual encounter with Daniels came out. From The New York Times live updates:
Michael Cohen says that Trump explicitly told him they needed to do whatever they could to suppress Stormy Danielss story until at least after the election, because it wouldnt matter at that point. Cohen also recalls asking Trump how Melania Trump might take everything that was happening. He describes Trumps reply as follows: He goes, How long do you think Ill be on the market for? Not long. He wasnt thinking about Melania. This was all about the campaign.
