Former Trump attorney Jim Trustee joins us now. Jim, thanks so much for joining us. Good to see you. Bob Costello testified as a witness in the ongoing trial, raising questions about the defense's strategy. The revelation that Michael Cohen admitted to stealing $60,000 from Donald Trump added a strong moment to the case. However, Costello's testimony seemed to shift the focus.
Trustee mentioned that without being present in the courtroom, it's hard to assess the impact of Costello's testimony fully. He highlighted the potential strategy of discrediting Cohen's credibility, which could sway the jury's opinion. Trustee also criticized the decision to clear the courtroom, emphasizing the importance of the public trial right.
