Seriously? This lawyer has NOT proved any crimes, except Cohen, who stole money. And, this lawyer made excuses for that? Oh, poor Michael who has known Stormy since 2005. And, what about HER, who has changed her story several times. She and Cohen know nothing happened. But, easy money is a trap. Stormy told Kimmel "Maybe it happened, maybe it didnt...it's up for a judge to decide"...way back. Stormy said she opened Trumps Black Bag and found gold plated tweezers (She was coached on that), and Old Spice, which close sources LAUGHED because Trump doesn't use that). We know Cohen taped Trump and spliced it in a supposed 3 way conversation; etc. So who committed a crime? And, what crime? Trump seemed to think that just paying her off would end the whole thing. AND, Stormy owes Trump $350000. So, who is the criminal? That woman is rather ignorant, since we heard from her, herself it never happened. The JUDGE IS THE LEAST IMPARTIAL OF ALL , AND COMPROMISED. MR Costello told the truth, to CONGRESS and in the courtroom and he isn't looking for any payout. Again, there was no crime on Trump's part. All this for Biden's EV OBSESSION?? And, ODD THAT DETROIT LAID OFF UAW. SO, they can hire illegals at much lower salary? And, what about stealing the money? Should Cohen get a pass?

The problem with the argument the host is making is that we are talking about past behavior, not current behavior. And he did not display any of that past behavior on the stand. The jury has no choice but to infer that it is past behavior, and that it has no current bearing on Cohen's character on the witness stand, nor on the evidence presented. There is no such thing as importing past behavior into evidence for a witness who is not the defendant in a criminal case.
