Sharpie Scrawled Signatures - Michael Cohen testifies in Trump trial Ballot : Trump Guilty and all things politics and the election with Biden and RFK
-
- Stand-Up Comedy
t was billed as the trial that could finally see a former U.S. president incarcerated. But in true Trump fashion, the hush money proceedings in Manhattan have turned into a carnival of loyal Republican sycophants and potential VP candidates treating the courtroom like a backstage meet-and-greet. We'll break down the parade of MAGA luminaries who showed up for cameo appearances, from Senators like Rick Scott and J.D. Vance to former 2024 candidates Doug Burgum and Vivek Ramaswamy. We'll roast their obvious attempts to curry favor with Trump, with Ramaswamy providing a masterclass in contrived detachment by utterly zoning out as damning evidence played out right in front of him. Of course, no circus is complete without the ringleader himself! We'll dive into Trump's transparency as Michael Cohen took the stand to confirm all the details of the $130,000 hush money coverup - complete with trumped-up invoices, Trump's own sharpie-scrawled signatures, and Cohen's admissions of fraud. It was such a grotesque display of guilt that even Congressman Byron Donalds had to take a breather at one point.
