We can put this issue to bed.
You must think the SDNY and the other court in CA are just stupid...
They aren't going to take ANYONE'S word about anything---
They look for FACTS and EVIDENCE like bank records and emails, and billing statements and loan application forms...
And audio files of telephone conversations...and photographs...

The only thing in that bed that Trump made is a bunch of lies...that will choke him and those helping him...

I'd love for a jury to hear testimony that Trump gave Cohen $130,000 but he didn't know what it was for.

Well then that guarantees Michael Cohen getting disbarred and makes Trump the stupidest legal client ever.

Lawyers are prohibited from spending their clients' money without telling them what it's being spent on, by the way.

That's what is hilarious to me. Apparently the new strategy is to just hope everyone on the multiple different investigative teams are suffering severe brain damage.

Paraphrasing Sun Tzu, you should always overestimate the capabilities of your adversaries and underestimate your own.

They have flipped that strategy completely on its head. Vastly overestimate your own meager, near slapstick comical abilities to hilariously exaggerated god like levels and assume your adversaries consist of a single potato. An especially gullible potato.

Cohen: Hey Trump I spent 130,000 dollars on.. um... some stuff. Can you pay me?

Trump: Ok buddy sure thing!
There Trump is--billionaire???
I don't think so---
He has to repay Cohen in separate payments...
130K and he couldn't write ONE check to cover it...
Chump change...

Well, Giuliani did brag that he would bring the investigation to an end in two weeks.

He's way ahead of schedule.
