Former Top DOJ Official John Yoo Explains Why Michael Cohen’s Testimony Could Trigger Mistrial
Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General in the Office of Legal Counsel John Yoo on Tuesday evening explained why Michael Cohen’s testimony could trigger a mistrial in Alvin Bragg’s ‘hush money’ lawfare case against Trump.
Trump was charged with 34 felony counts for paying porn star Stormy Daniels, AKA, Stephanie Clifford, ‘hush payments’ through his then-attorney Michael Cohen in an alleged scheme to silence her and stop the story about their alleged affair from being published in the National Enquirer.
There is no crime, but Alvin Bragg charged President Trump anyway.
John Yoo explained why bringing risky and unreliable witnesses such as Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen to the witness stand could trigger a mistrial.
Convicted perjurer Michael Cohen took the witness stand on Monday and Tuesday.
Michael Cohen played audio of a secret recording he took between himself and his then-client Donald Trump. Attorney-client privilege is a right for every American — except Donald Trump.
