Michael Cohen Sits Down with President Trump and Discusses Being Forced to Lie About Crimes in Bragg Case
After Michael Cohen testified in the BS case to get Trump for accounting entries that weren’t crimes and that he didn’t commit, Professor Alan Dershowitz expressed his shock at the trial.
Alan Dershowitz shared that Michael Cohen was not a truthful witness. He was clearly lying at one point. The prosecutors should not have used him because of history of lies.

Dershowitz was there in the courtroom when corrupt and biased Judge Merchan, who was trying to put President Trump in prison, blew his top because the judge’s star witness was a trainwreck. He shared on Wednesday:
…But in my 60 years as a lawyer and law professor, I have never seen a spectacle such as the one I observed sitting in the front row of the courthouse yesterday.
The judge in Donald Trump’s trial was an absolute tyrant, though he appeared to the jury to be a benevolent despot. He seemed automatically to be ruling against the defendant at every turn.
Many experienced lawyers raised their eyebrows when the judge excluded obviously relevant evidence when offered by the defense, while including irrelevant evidence offered by the prosecution.
But when the defense’s only substantive witness, the experienced attorney Robert Costello, raised his eyebrows at one of New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan’s rulings, the court went berserk.
Losing his cool and showing his thin skin, the judge cleared the courtroom of everyone including the media.
For some reason, I was allowed to stay, and I observed one of the most remarkable wrong-headed biases I have ever seen. The judge actually threatened to strike all of Costello’s testimony if he raised his eyebrows again.
That of course would have been unconstitutional because it would have denied the defendant his Sixth Amendment right to confront witnesses and to raise a defense.
What a trainwreck and a crooked court.
This week, President Trump shared with Michael Cohen.
President Trump just sat down with Michael Cohen and said it straight:
“They weaponized you like nobody’s ever been weaponized… like few have been.”
Cohen said: “Maybe just you and I, sir.”
President Trump: “Yeah, me too. But mine was at a level that nobody’s ever seen before. They weaponized you. They weaponized a lot of people. And I respect the fact that you recanted everything you said. That’s a big thing that you did.”
The deep state was willing to do whatever it took to take Donald Trump down. Cohen was just another person they used in the process. All of it makes perfect sense, another piece to the puzzle. https://x.com/KarluskaP/status/2090594752282419325/video/1
