Decade doing trumps dirty work. Credibility issues are why the prosecution used the 20 witnesses who proceeded cohen to basically corroborate his story before they even put him on the stand. It is also why trumps defense team has singlemindedly sought to state their case on discrediting him. Even in cases that might not be read crucial to rebutting the prosecution.

After all, he paid Stormy Daniels out of his own pocket pick he said he did it at Donald Trumps direction and said donald trump was fully aware of the plan to cover it up. Those are the key details. At the same time, cohen is a convicted felon who pled guilty to lying to congress and making false statements to a bank. Not to mention he spent over a decade doing trumps dirty work. And th
