Why is he shouting at Cohen?


Because trump hates cohen and told him to. The defense had made a bunch of horrible strategic and tactical mistakes in this trial and I suspect trump is the reason for all of them.


The *defense* has made horrible strategic and tactical mistakes? LOL.
The only one making horrible strategic and tactical mistakes is Bragg and company in even filing this suit.
You'll see.


Where are the hordes of MAGA protestors there in NY to defend Trump?

They are at home, living their lives, because Trump is not defendible here and they know it.


It's because there is a 5-block cordon around the courthouse. They can't get close to the courthouse, so why bother going to NYC? Some speculate that this 5-block cordon was done intentionally to avoid the very optics you complain are lacking.

Why are you still taking the word of a con man and rapist? (Not, of course, this rape, but the one he was found to be guilty of in a court of law.)
“After The New York Times published a story that said Trump was unhappy with the meager crowd he saw when he arrived at the courthouse for opening statements on Monday, Trump told reporters inside the courthouse on Tuesday: “For blocks you can’t get near this courthouse.”

He added on social media on Tuesday: “Thousands of people were turned away from the Courthouse in Lower Manhattan by steel stanchions and police, literally blocks from the tiny side door from where I enter and leave. It is an armed camp to keep people away.” And he said in comments inside the courthouse on Thursday: “This courthouse is locked down; there’s not a person within five blocks.”

Facts First: Trump’s claims are all false. The police have not turned away “thousands of people” from the courthouse. And while there are various security measures in place in the area, including some street closures enforced by police officers and barricades, it’s not true that “this courthouse is locked down,” that “for blocks you can’t get near this courthouse” or that “there’s not a person within five blocks.” In reality, there is a designated protest zone for the trial at a park directly across the street from the courthouse – and people are permitted to drive right up to the front of the courthouse and walk into the building, which remains open to the public. If people show up early enough in the morning, they can even get into the trial courtroom itself or the overflow room that shows near-live video of the proceedings.” https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/27/politics/fact-check-donald-trumps-courthouse-claims-new-york-trial/index.html


This is Trump's ego trying to rationalize why the only people showing up are Ewic and the cast of MAGA window-lickers from Congress auditioning for the VP slot.


Don’t forget about the two teens who wandered to watch history! Sounds like there wasn’t a line.

Oh, for sure. I just wanted the PP to know that that’s a lie. There is no cordoning… people just don’t like Trump and even his ratchet supporters know he’s guilty and don’t care enough to show up.

Not clear on this, but I haven't seen any evidence that Trump directed Cohen to take out a HELOC (and hide doing so from his wife) in order to fund the payment.


Stormy extorting Trump for money.


But trump didn’t pay her anything right?

Trump paid Michael Cohen to pay her something.


Trump says he didn’t. Is he lying?

Is this a serious question?


More tongue in cheek to show the absurdity of the Trump deny everything defense strategy.

And now he’s on trial for classifying it as a legal expense. What should he have classified it as?

The money Stormy got was not a legal expense.

Sorry hit submit too soon. The money Stormy got was not a business expense for the Trump Organization.
