A Quick Thought

Here’s a key, too little noted, part of the testimony today. Cohen has actually burnished his credibility quite a bit by defending Trump on questions on which there is likely no evidence that could impeach him if he did otherwise. For instance, he said that he simply didn’t believe it was in character for Trump to ever hit his wife. But it’s more than about his credibility. Cohen has also knocked down a lot of questions and accusations that have loomed around Trump.
