‘He will not testify’: Former Trump attorney predicts Donald Trump will not take the stand
#Trump #Trial #MichaelCohen
They keep reminding us that Cohen lied but fail to mention Trump's STILL LYING. lmbo
Trump should testify if he isn't lying, but he won't b/c he too would perjury himself....
And Joes uncle was eaten by cannibals while Joe was driving 18 wheelers after leaving the Puerto Rican neighborhood he was raised in after attending black churches that he said he was also raised in. 😂
Joe had to pull out of his first run for president because of his constant lying and plagiarism. Easy info to find except Liberal cultists are scared to look it up
@@chuckrambo4401 Can you rephrase that cause it reads like a Trump's "speech'"?! Maybe you need a teleprompter to help you out.
@@chuckrambo4401 These people weren't allowed to view or know anything about those things. Over their heads LOL
He only testify outside of the courtroom with his lies.
Donald Trump TESTIFIES in front of the CAMERAS because he doesn't have to take an oath to tell the TRUTH!!!
He will not testify. He most likely won't debate, either. Such is the way of the coward.
You don't take the stand in a trial you've already won.
Coward? Bribens cheating?
@@Dingleberry777what trial has he won Dingledork
@Dingleberry777 so you think trump is a liar then? He said unequivocally that he would testify.
the only reason Joe Biden is shouting debate is because he's been obliterated in the polls
Let it be known that Donald J. Trump bravely ran away.
🎼 and his p....🎶 _That'll be enough_
Brave brave Sir Donald.
He's not the President now!! Stop calling him that!! 🤬🤬
President Trump President Trump President Trump President Trump
Exactly he's not president he's a criminal ex-president
@@kenc7120expected reaction of a cult member
Criminal defendant Trump
Once a President you're always called President... did you miss that somewhere in social studies or history class???
Of course he won’t testify. The ONLY question is who will he blame for not being ‘allowed’ to testify.
It's a trial in search of a crime. You wouldn't take the stand either.
It's probably the same people stopping Trump from releasing his amazing health care and infrastructure plans.
@@Dingleberry777 🤣😂
@@Dingleberry777
Your problem is, that he PROMISED to take the stand, didn't he? He claims to ALWAYS keep his promises, right?
@@Dingleberry777 Violation of NY State Election Law 17-152 and falsifying business records.
Trump is a coward
This is correct
Trump really needs to go to prison. He can appeal everything from a cell. The World is tired of Trump!
For what crime tho ?
The world is tired of your corrupt cannibal
@@Dingleberry777 Violation of NY State Election Law 17-152 and falsifying business records.
@@Dingleberry777The news told them to hate him, and God knows they can't think for themselves.
@@kdenso3196lol because ewe think for yourself? Believing everything tRump tells you is pathetic.
And no, cultist, I don't believe anything until I've researched it.
He's scared!
Hence the diapers!
Corrupt briben? True. Why the cheating
He too scared to testify
So scared he takes naps in court. Right. Looks so scared
@@kdenso3196closing his eyes like a little kid hiding under the covers cus his mommy caught him being naughty
Not wanting to testify shows he's guilty as sin. 🤣🤣
Trump's too guilty to testify...
Technically he's innocent until proven guilty, commie
Exactly
🎯
"The walls are closing in", "We got him now". Why are you worried about him testifying? MSM has been telling you since 2016 he is going to jail. Be patient lol
Trump definitely should testify. He can finally present all that evidence he's been claiming to have all these years. Maybe he can get Mike Lindell to bring some of his evidence too.
Mike can bring a pillow 😇
LOL.... Liars, conmen and traitorous losers... ohh my!
Along with the healthcare plan he has never presented....
He'll do that right after he releases his tax records.
Did u not Listen to the attorney in video? No reason to testify
This guy is a pro at gas lighting
Of course he won't. Because "I never met this woman, I don't know who she is" will go down with any jury like a cold cup of sick.
It's a nothing burger.
@@Honey-Sanchez Like Hunter's laptop?
@@Honey-Sanchez Trump for gravel pit 2024 💙
@@Honey-Sancheztry again cultist.
An attorney who denies documents is not at all trust worthy.
WOW!!!
Who's surprised???
Not Me!!!
What a coward!!!
Innocent my A**!!!
Trump is spineless...he has no chance of testifying.
Vote Blue 2024 🇺🇸
Biden made an executive order...to hide the HUR investigation...lol. Silly!
He will not be given any lead way by this judge....that's all.
My opinion.
“Former” Trump attorney. A member of the ever expanding club.
well he's just grateful he's not in jail.
He's the 2nd impeachment hearing attorney. Don't blame Trump having defense attorneys! Blame weaponized cases brought over things settled already & BS acts by political Dad crooks & Dems
The things that these clowns do to fill air time. Let's just save everyone the trouble now. He will say that he wants to. He will then say that either his lawyers advised against or say (as he tried a week ago) that the court itself will not allow it. Either way, he will not testify and make himself out to look the victim.
Yes, he will say that he has no control whatsoever. Despite the fact that all the bootlickers are showing up, dressed just like him, to help him violate his gag order.
Well, who's "victim" if not ppl put on trial, gag order & smeared publicly with icky stuff not even charges in case w/star witness a convicted lied under oath who has no evidence of a crime, just his words (opposite sworn before)? I'd hate to be arrested like that even if had money
"These lawyers are doing a great job" - says the guy who used to work for Trump. Any guest you have that is a Trumper needs to be treated as a hostile guest.
well what would you do different and better to defend this defendant? unless you think it's a defense attorney's job to magically make a defendant actually innocent, his attorneys are doing the best any attorney can do with a guilty client.
@@nonya.bizness I agree. They're doing the best they can do. That is not what the guest said though. He said "these lawyers are doing a great job", which is not the same as "they're doing the best they can". Words do matter, but I do agree with you.
According to all TV news stations legal analyses, Trump's attorney did an impressive job on cross of Cohen 2 days last week, not just Brennan
This “lawyer” is just yet another toady. Very poor
He would fall asleep on the stand.
Omg he twisted himself so far to lie for trump its ridiculous
Who didn't already know this? The second it came out of his yellow mouth. You don't put a client on the stand that has zero self control. Including body functions.
Chicken?
Wow, funny how ignorant these people think we little people are! 🙄 OK then...
„These lawyers are doing a great job“.
Misses to explain where and how.
Wat a wimp the trumpet is lock him up now 😅😅😅
Trump is so innocent but not willing to clear his name.
Exactly
I can not sit here and listen to this guy refer to Trump as President. 💙
But, but.......he said '' It'll be fun to take the stand''.......guess he was wrong, huh!
He won't testify and then claim he didn't because he was gagged. Wait for it.
🎯
💯!! ..... DESPITE the Judge saying to chump HIMSELF that the gag order doesn't prevent you from testifying on your own behalf (it only gags him from out of court -statements- , I mean attacks, against jurors, witnesses, & family members of the prosecution and Judge). But chump thinks he can BS (& insult) everyone in the public by stating the gag order prevents him from testifying. 🤣🤣🤣
Testify ? All he will say is this is a hoax , this judge is conflicted.
He is too scared to testify. he is all mouth.
He don't have the balls he's a snitch
This guy is angling to work for trump again. No worries William Brennan - trump’s going to need a lot more lawyers! (Hope you do t need to get paid too much)
Crossword puzzle….is that what we call sleeping these days?
The orange chicken always plays the same boring game!
At last he's realising that his flappy jaw is likely to end up getting him in clink 😂
2:46 really makes me wonder if William Brennan plays Dungeons and Dragons.
No cameras allowed. He will not testify.
Just saying
What is this guy talking about? The prosecution has explicitly said what the second amplifier charge is. Also, the prosecution only has to get a jury instruction about Weisselburg to address that issue. He is just throwing stuff out to see what sticks. At least the host pushed back a little bit this time
Around the @1:52 mark, you can hear a toilet flushing in the background.
I thought I heard that! 🤣🤣
William Brennan is a lawyer? It doesn't matter who you are. The law dictates the crime and the crime deserves punishment no matter how rich or poor you are.
What crime? Prosecution missing that
"I swear to God, Bob, I dont have anything on Trump." Mike Cohen
He will just fall asleep on the stand anyway.
True 😂
US Justice is now down to this question. Who do you believe Cohen or Trump?
"Former Trump attorney predicts Donald Trump will not take the stand."
Did he also predict that it's going to be hot and muggy in Miami in July?
Which one lied the most.??
Exactly and who benefited the most by the lies?
djt attorneys will have to gag him and secure him in his chair. He loves to talk and will ramble on if he is in the docket. I say let him talk!
No need to testify in this sham of a trial.
@@ForgotMyDemonName the DOJ, the State of NY, the prior DA all refused to prosecute this case. But Alan Bragg the new DA campaigned on getting Trump with no crime even being named in the indictment.
Should a defendent take the stand?
Anyone who has no clue about law knows the answer.
Never. Counsel always reccomends you don't.
He won't debate Biden either
Stop wasting time and money 😢 start worrying about America 🇺🇸
Why would he? It makes no since.
This isn't fair, the country heard him describe the Battle of Gettysburg ,,, I want to hear him explain The Boston Tea Party, then and only then, he should get up on that stand and Testify..😅
If he testifies, how long will it take him to perjure himself?
Why would he when its rigged.
Oh shut up ...why would Cohen lie now? 🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡😡😡
🎯
Why would Cohen stop lying now you mean? He's done that every time so far. Answer is he didn't get hired in Trump administration job like he thought he deserved & he wants revenge. Caught lying under oath & jail time, he wants that for Trump too. Also, his marriage, he took 130 thousand equity loan on his own house, didn't tell wife and may be covering own hanky-panky with Stormy! Sure is odd
Shocker.
If someone honestly thought they were innocent, they would generally be keen to testify to clear their name.
Kinda like his famous " IN TWO WEEKS ".....
There is no way he could testify. He would perjure himself so much that he’d end up going to jail just for that. The prosecutors would just have to let him open his mouth and he’d do their job for them. But I guess he would just appeal, appeal, appeal, looking for judges that are members of the cult.
Trump's opportunity to defy Merchan gagorder was a missed opportunity to go on the record with his concerns involving the trial and the witnesses under OATH!
What will be his excuse this time?🤨
😂 whats with the yellow tie?
It matches the yellow on his back.
It matches what's in his depends.
This guy has a skewed perspective. And corroborate isn't pronounced cooperate. What a hack.
Ooo, please testify !
The boys' manspreading in full glory.
We may not like it ... But he seems to be right...!
You should play Stormy interview with Maher from 2018 and compare it to trial testimony !
Very interesting !
They won’t put trump on the stand because he would commit perjury
Let this innocent man testify and clear his name and reputation (😁😄😂🤣🤪)
Give this guy an unopposed voice?
Duh, tell us something we don't already know.
His only defense: i listened to lawyers and accountants who said it was ok to record reimbursements as legal expenses. Even tho an employee who paid for a legit business expense would have been reimbursed for the exact amount. Example: you put gas in a rental car on a work trip. Legit expense incurred while doing your job.
That part isn't disputed. Trump wrote check to his lawyer=legal expenses. Accounting clerk listed as legal expenses. They/this WAS legal expenses
But, but, he said he would! Was he LYING...? :P
Biden accepted x45s DEBATE... " I'll debate you anywhere, any time. I hear you are not busy on Wednesdays"... 😂🤣😂🤣😂👍🏼💙🇺🇸💙
Just ask him what he did, he'll tell you himself.....he did already*
Trump knows he is going to lose and then appeal. I doubt he would miss a chance to speak his mind. His ego is bigger than his brain.
This one should've had change of venue. This Court is biased (including wacko Judge rulings so far) & appeal will probably be needed unless enuf bad publicity gets his poll numbers down enough. Although this Judge knows how case stinks & probably hopes jury will end it "not guilty insufficient evidence"
is "former Trump attorney" now a standard job title?
Talk tough….then hide in his Mar-a-Lago bunker. That is Donnie boy.
Many people are saying that he has the very best Perjury.
Perfect waste of time. Dumpster will never take the witness stand. CMON! 🤣😅😝
Has the prosecution presented any evidence of a crime being committed yet? It’s getting late. 😂
Pretty hard & stupid when already investigated & cleared by Federal Election Committee DOJ! NY DA Bragg a joke wasting NY money to "persecute" Trump for this foolishness
Did he call him " a polluted sewer"???? I thought so!!
"Polluted SOURCE"
Is this guy auditioning to get his job back?
Trump can only RAMBLE. When asked to answer serious questions, he'll be mumbling and hemming and hawing
no more complaining of his gag order
He would want to testify since he's done nothing wrong.... If I was on trial for something I didn't do, I would have to be gagged in court to keep me quiet.
It would be a big mistake for Trump to take the stand!
Of course this trial is to help America, duh.
Has Trump EVER kept his word about testifying? Ha ha ha I mean come on!
Where is the body guard hiding, HE WAS RIGHT OUTSIDE THE HOTEL DOOR ??
Admitted not true (doorman did) but was also paid to stop spreading false rumors. It's not illegal
Of course he wont
1. Liar
2. Coward
This case is a Sham
No that's your brain.
This defendqnt has never andwill never testify under oath .
Telling his narrative does not correspond to TRUTH !!!
"GAG ORDER HIM!! 😡✊️ MAKE HIM TESTIFY!!😡✊️" cried the F A S C I S T S.
“Will DJT testify and how should counsel prepare him?”
“Cohen is a liar!”
Every time.
MSNBC and others stop inviting this guy 😂
Criminals don't take the stand, they take the 5th.
How come Cohen's sketch looks like Perry Mason? 🤷
