TRUMP INDICTED

If I were on trial, I wouldn't want my lawyer shouting "that was a lie" at the jury. Not without evidence to back that up. Compound that with him saying things that require the judge to tell the jury to disregard what my lawyer said. This was a shitty performance but I think it was all driven by Trump's instructions to Blanche.


Trump’s lawyer shouts at the jury about Cohen’s alleged call confirming the Daniels payment: ‘That is per-jur-y
“It. Was. A. Lie.” Blanche said about the disputed phone call Cohen made to reach Trump.

Trump attorney Todd Blanche has grown animated, raising his voice with staccato delivery to underscore his remarks about a disputed phone call that Michael Cohen testified he made on Oct. 24, 2016, to inform Trump about the finalization of the Stormy Daniels deal.

Blanche mocked the evidence, saying it showed the “unremarkable fact” that Trump was with Schiller. “No kidding? Thanks,” Blanche said sarcastically.
“Is there the same absolute proof of lies for every single thing that man told you?” Blanche said of Cohen’s testimony. “No, there is not. For that we have an oath,” Blanche said. “He lied.”


This is their entire defense. Despite the mountain of evidence, in writing to support the prosecution's case against Trump. Much of it with Donald's own signature on it. Trump's lawyer is resorting to ad hominins and unsubstantiated shout that "he lied". In the world in which I live, people who shout have already lost the argument.

it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
