Trump trial live: Cohen motivated by anger towards Trump, defence says

Todd Blanche asks Michael Cohen to put on
headphones to listen to the next piece of evidence.

An image quickly flashes
onto the evidence screen – it’s an episode of Cohen’s Mea Culpa podcast.

A member of Trump’s legal team rushes over to the evidence desk and waves his arms, likely
indicating it should be taken down.

But proceedings continue, and the whole court is now hearing the podcast episode.

Cohen’s thick Long Island accent booms through the
courtroom – a far more performative and combative tone than he’s using at the
witness stand.

“I want to thank the Manhattan district attorney’s office and
their fearless leader, Alvin Bragg” with whom he spent “countless hours” laying
out evidence for the Trump investigation, Cohen says in the podcast.

He adds that Trump is “about
to get a taste of what I went through, and I promise you it’s not fun”.

Cohen says on the recording that picturing Donald Trump going through the booking process “fills
me with delight and sadness all at the same time”.
