‘That was a lie!’ Trump attorney blows up at Michael Cohen during hush money trial

Michael Cohen has completed his second day of intense cross-examination by Todd Blanche, former President Trump’s attorney, with the proceedings in the hush money trial growing increasingly heated while the defense attempted to paint Cohen as a liar.

Cohen is expected to be the prosecution’s last witness in the historic trial, which has stretched into its fourth week. Cross-examination is expected to wrap-up on Monday morning, the next time the trial will be held.

Attorneys indicated before the trial broke for the day on Thursday that each side could rest its case as soon as next Tuesday. There still is no word on whether Trump himself plans to testify.

Follow below for a recap from New York.

Current witness: Michael Cohen, Trump’s ex-fixer and personal attorney
Attorney questioning: Todd Blanche, Trump attorney
