Michael Cohen testifies during heated cross-examination in Trump’s secret trial

NEW YORK — The central witness against Donald Trump on Thursday withstood a scathing cross-examination from the former president’s defense lawyer, who accused Michael Cohen of lying just recently two days to realize his dreams of revenge against his ex-boss.

The confrontation between Cohen and Trump lawyer Todd Blanche was the most anticipated moment of the month-long trial that is now nearing its conclusion. With the trial taking place Friday, jurors will have three days to evaluate Cohen’s answers. His cross-examination will continue Monday morning, paving the way for closing arguments next week.
