Trump’s Hope
During the 11th day of the criminal trial in the case N.Y. v. Trump, former Trump campaign and White House communications director testified that Michael Cohen, Trump’s ex-lawyer, would often frustrate campaign staff and do things that were not helpful.
On the witness stand, Hicks testified that Cohen “used to like to call himself Mr. Fix It, but it was only because he first broke it.”
Hicks testified under subpoena for the prosecution. She praised the former president at times, and got choked up when Trump’s attorney asked her about her time working for the Trump Organization.
Cohen is a central player and could be the star witness for Manhattan District Attorney Bragg’s case against the former president that he falsified business records connected to a payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels to quiet her claims alleging an illicit affair with Trump in the early 2000s.
Trump paid a $9,000 fine for violating the judge’s gag order ruling Friday, but there are still four more alleged violations that Judge Juan Merchan has yet to rule on. Trial resumes on Monday at 9:30 a.m.
