The last few days of the trial saw a huge explosion of drama.
At the beginning of the week, Trump defense counsel Todd Blanche got the former president's ex-attorney Michael Cohen, a star witness for the prosecution, to admit he stole money from the Trump Organization, to attempt to cast doubt on the idea Trump knew all the financial decisions Cohen made on his behalf with hush payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Things derailed for the defense, however, when they called Cohen's former legal adviser Robert Costello to the stand, who proceeded to antagonize the judge and admit under cross-examination that he was manipulating Cohen to Trump's benefit.
Heh heh heh
There are 2 lawyers on the jury. If any of the other jurors were too stupid to know why the courtroom was cleared, I'm sure it was well-explained to them.
What if I am too stupid to understand? Can you explain it to my dumb ass?
Clearing the courtroom is how the Judge gets to have a 1-on-1 conversation that starts with "Listen here, you little shit .."
Sure. Trumps witness is a complete idiot
You'd think, as a lawyer himself, that Costello would know better than pissing off the judge.
I guess he's just another in the long history of Trump hiring the worst lawyers.
