Dramatic Turn in Trump Hush Money Trial: Attorney Todd Blanche Exposes Michael Cohen’s Contradictory Testimony
In a striking development in the ongoing Trump hush money trial, former President Donald Trump’s attorney, Todd Blanche, caught ex-fixer Michael Cohen in a glaring contradiction during his testimony. The courtroom drama unfolded as Blanche zeroed in on Cohen’s conflicting accounts of a crucial October 24, 2016 phone call between Cohen and Trump.
On Monday, Cohen testified that the phone call was to update Trump on the Stormy Daniels matter. However, today he changed his story, claiming the call was to discuss harassing phone calls he was receiving from a teenager, alongside Trump’s security aide Keith Schiller.
Blanche seized the moment, exclaiming, “That was a lie!” He continued, “Because you were actually talking to Mr. Schiller about you were getting harassing phone calls from a 14-year-old.”
The revelation has cast doubt on Cohen’s credibility and added a dramatic twist to the high-profile trial. The contradictory testimonies have raised questions about the accuracy of Cohen’s statements and the overall narrative presented by the prosecution.
As the trial progresses, the defense team is expected to leverage this inconsistency to challenge the validity of the charges against Trump. The courtroom is set for more intense exchanges as both sides continue to present their cases.
