Eisen on Trump’s N.Y. Trial: The Prosecutors Have Built Corroboration for ‘Every Single Thing Michael Cohen Will Say’

‘That‘s how they‘re prepared’

EXCERPT:

EISEN: “Wolf, it’s been so fascinating for me being in court every day to see how the prosecution and the defense is preparing for that key witness, Michael Cohen, who was also the first person I spoke to when I investigated the impeachment, first impeachment of President Trump, because of his central role in Trump world. But what prosecutors have done, and this is part of what Katelyn is talking about, they have built corroboration for virtually every single thing Michael Cohen will say so that they can point to things like those phone records, even for a phone call. If someone disbelieves, you say, just look at the record. The big pieces of corroboration have come through witnesses that they’ve prepared, like David Pecker, who opened their case, the critical Trump Tower meeting, where the alleged agreement to make payments to benefit the campaign was set, all corroborated. That’s how they’re prepared.”
