    Why doesn't the defense call Donald J Trump?
  • "Excuse me, Your Honor, we have heard enough and would like to start deliberations right now. We will be back in 5 minutes".
  • @qwadratix
    Will they call Abbot too? It would be a shame to split up the duo.
  • @rtraakored8960
    Costello is just another shyster lawyer with waaaayyy too much baggage.
  • @firstlast1732
    Terrible analogy definitely should call Costello it would be mal practice if defense didn’t
  • @griffin224
    Wow, this case sure fell apart , Cohen is going back to jail
  • @jamess7315
    Who are these supposed ‘experts’? The defence has to put it the Costello conversations to Cohen, if they want to call him.
  • @MisterE409
    GAME OVER for Alvin Bragg cope & seethe
  • @jimparker880
    Think about it, please. If the defendant could have talked their way out of the problem, they probably would have done so a long time before being on the witness stand.
  • You can lead a Republican to Christ but you can’t make him listen to his words
  • Trump says he cant say anything but yet wont take the stand, ironic or what?
  • The prosecution objects to Costello testifying because it hurts their case. Really? I object to the other team being allowed to have the ball because they might put points on the scoreboard.
  • @KateLopez-ys3nd
    They should. They need to clarified things, not just label Cohen. He's relieved that he intentionally didn't hide anything from the jury. He spoke the truth
