'He cannot be trusted': Michael Cohen faces an uphill reputational battle with Trump's jury
Monday might be the first time the jury in Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial sees Michael Cohen in person, but they have heard plenty about the former president's one-time "fixer." Witness after witness over the last three weeks have offered their opinions on Trump's former lawyer, whose credibility with the jury could swing the outcome of the trial.

From Trump's 'attack dog' to star witness: Michael Cohen set to testify in hush money trial
For nearly a decade, Michael Cohen was Donald Trump's trusted adviser, personal attorney, and self-described "attack dog with a law license." Prosecutors hope his testimony will support their allegations of criminal conduct against Trump in front of a jury that has already heard from 19 different witnesses and seen 200 pieces of evidence.
