The trial in Manhattan involving prosecutors' hush money case against Donald Trump is entering a critical phase as their key witness, Michael Cohen, faces intense cross-examination from the defense. Cohen's testimony is pivotal in implicating the former president in a scheme to suppress damaging stories during his 2016 presidential campaign.
During his time on the witness stand, Cohen directly linked Trump to efforts to silence women alleging sexual encounters and falsifying business records to cover up payments. The defense is now challenging Cohen's credibility, suggesting he has ulterior motives and is not a reliable witness.
