#Trump #MichaelCohen #Trial
This is some garbage level reporting from Democrat hacks
NBC why did you give air time to those Trump sycophants and then immediately not talk about how insanely untrue their comments were? You gave oxygen to this morass they are trying to create in the public square.
What’s Next, Clarence Thomas and Wife Showing Up To Support Trump is New York Trial???
Could be
So you’re against the 1st ammendment?
LOL
Michael Cohen has credibility issue!!
He was trumps attorney, how Trump has any credibility??
This is not a scam! DT is not the answer for Americans.
I think you are right on both counts. He brings this all on his self. When the DOJ pointed this out he could got off with a fine. He wanted the circus and refuses to pay and or apologize for anything. I think Cohen lucky he paid him!
If I was on that jury, I would be disgusted by this constant parade of influencers. They are clearly here not to support Trump but to intimidate Michael Cohen
I don’t know all those people come home and tell there kids
Intimidating the Jury and protest out side to the voters. After demanding peaceful students arrested for peace and aid to Palestinians starving!
@@kenedytrantell their kids what?
Is no more RNC now is been Trump TNC
Two things CAN exist at once. How about buffonery and bias?
NBC, NOTHING BUT CRAP
Trump is a candidate not a president! And other countries have taken leaders to court. These ‘supporters’ are creepy. Dressing like trump and each other is so childish!
dump trump
“ . . . worked as Trump’s fixer.” Every attorney is supposed to be a “fixer.”
And supposedly an intimidator.
The GOP has truly become a cult at this point.
They basically made a protesting speech against our criminal justice system. After just requesting students be arrested for peaceful protesting the war and starvation as unpatriotic. Yet this is Congress protesting our justice department! How unpatriotic can you be? Then calling it a sham. If their was any criminality they would have taken action. Instead they complained how drapery and depressing the court is in NYC. This is the political interference before the jury too.
Who is they, Johnson?
Assumption “Baseless claim”…. call it Trump claims instead of Trump makes baseless claims. The media is clearly bias and makes it’s own conclusion. Report the news… not your preferred narrative.
@10:00 if you want to avoid making the entire thing look like a farce, you might want to reserve judgement on guilt beyond a reasonable doubt before the defense actually begins their case. #justsaiyan
The defense is the one making their the last 2 days. Which other than Cohen has a ruff past. Yet provided the tapes, documents and other evidence not much to see there so far
Vote for Trump!! Democrats need to go back to school.
Don’t let money decide your vote. Seek information on your own. Don’t forget woman rights are in your hands. This could effect your daughters and or sisters too. Don’t let Drs. Medical advice let to the government.
rat
I have s gripe
Firstly airing trumps daily unhinged whining sessions is bad enough although understandable,
Airing his backup group is unnecessary and irrelevant mainstream media needs to not give Trump a way to circumvent his gag order.
It looks very unpatriotic to me. To have Congress out front protesting our justice system. Especially after spending weeks to lock up students for protesting for Peace, aid and the end of supplying weapons
If what is happening to Trump happened in another country he would already be up against a wall and shot.
Jey where are you been if anyone do it we been jail long time
Just for contempt of court alone.
We now have at least 20 U.S. Drs/Nurses trapped in Rafah with no supplies and no relief do to Netanyahu closing of the Gate to Egypt. Against Egypt/Israel treaties.
😢 thoughts & prayers … not the cynical kind, the real kind. I hope Netanyahu has a moment of sanity.
What’s up with the weird MAGA red tie cult?
Why do people wear a team jersey?
Trone just threw himself under the bus by saying his family was destroyed by alcoholism yet he owns the largest chain in the United States for alcohol. Must be the money! Old habits are hard to break.
Profits over people including families
@@lindahaltam6535Thats why corporations and billionaires destroy everything they touch, by milking it for profits over and above all else.
Trump will be president DEAL WITH IT
His lips are moving!😊😅
the GOP is a sham, what shameful sycophants. vote blue!!!
It’s really a sham , which es to challenge Mr Donald Trump’s by seeking to block him Mr Donald Trump’s to contest the general election . Mr Donald Trump’s if to asked aeon what to do . of self defense will highlight the truth thanks you.
Why all these stooges at court and not doing their jobs they are some bunch of fools.
They haven’t done their jobs since they took the majority. I’d say they are par for the course.
Biden is loosing. He messed up, because because first Things he did was raising the interest! The country was close for a whole year, as soon as the country open up, he raising the interest. Not very smart at all.
Republicans what a sham for the little Cheeto!@@
It’s funny that no politician was in court until Michael Cohen took the stand.
Those are some good look’n kanckles!
Schweet! #KanckleLife
Jamie Raskin does it all the time
Biden and the boarder what a waste of money give more to them then our vets
Liars on display!!! Now you see them, vote them out!!!
all of maga in uniforms. like good little fascists. of course!
Verifiably falsifying federal campaign documents in a way that had a direct impact on a presidential election is NOT a “legal stretch,” Stephen Hayes. 🙄
Fast❤🎉thank you rich
Vivek Ramaswamy is shamefully arrogant. He hasn’t learned that black and white thinking is a failure to think. As George Will said in the WSJ a few years ago, “Donald Trump doesn’t know what it is to have a thought.” Individual thoughts come with histories, contexts, emotions, feelings, opinions, consequences, shades of meaning…. Vivek avoids all of this and tries, like Trump, to coerce and control his followers.

Poor Trump being unlawfully attacked constantly by evil wicked democrats. We no longer vote democratic. We are done just think what the criminal democrats do to poor Americans that stand up to them its very cruel and mean.
ทองคำขาวแพงให้ของขวัญผู้ใหญ่ใจดี❤
The banana republic is the nation that re-elects a Donald Trump. May this not happen.
ดีทั้งสองฝ่ายbloods best
Thank. You. Very. Much. 🎉🎉🎉
Great job Yamiche Alcindor! Congratulations on moving up from PBS to multi-networks to now substitute anchor on MSNBC Meet The Press. I just LOVE your great success! And your great work! Keep it up! Again, congratulations!
Let’s hope the truth leads the jury towards the correct verdict, then democracy can breathe a sigh of relief.
As I read these comments, I see it takes a special kind of stupidity to be a Democrat/liberal. Anybody who thinks the country is better with Joe “the big guy” Biden in charge after seeing the state of this country the last 4 years needs their head examined. You people are propaganda weirdos to the fullest. A convicted and known liar is only “credible” if he tells lies on somebody you have been taught to hate. Stop watching these people lie to you, it’s hurting your critical thinking skills.
Talk about ignorance in journalism. Cohan does not sell tshirts with trump behind bars. Meidas Touch does. Cohan has been a guest on Meidas Touch youtube videos, but he does not sell the Trump shirts the defense and apparently ignorant meet the press contributors talk about.
eveyr politicians says one thing on the campaign trail then does the oppposite once in office
Baseless? Really?
Congratulations Alsobrooks #2024
Not a fan of Yamiche Alcindor. The poor diction, annunciation, “ums” and such are tough to listen to, in my opinion. When she is hosting, I jump immediately to Hallie Jackson’s show instead.
She’s absolutely terrible
Those clips were just what I needed to remind me that I’ve never missed hearing Ramaswamy’s voice. 😨 😂😂😂
You all sb gagged too
Viveck is UNREAL.
One of my favorite books. Read it 3 times. Still learned a lot.
History warns us to be wary of a leader who. (read to bottom)
1. Pretends to be a man of the people but detests working men and women.
2. Claim’s not take a pay cheque while in office
3. Acts like a deal maker but easily breaks promises
4. Ignores experts but is said to be “seduced by himself” during his own speeches.
5. Calls for opponents to be locked up but frets about getting convicted himself.
6. Manipulates the media for personal gain but attacks the lying press as enemies.
7. Vows to root out corruption but abuses official powers.
8. Claims to have the best lieutenants but surrounds himself with sycophants.
9. Relishes supporters violence but keeps enough distance to avoid charges of incitement
10. Knows small lies aren’t believable but “big lies” become gospel.
11. Builds his cause around a pledge to make the country great again, While threatening its very foundations.
12. Calls his rivals vermin to dehumanize them.
This is a description of Adolf Hitler, drawn from biographies of the man.
Sure sounds like Trump too me.
A vote for Trump is a vote for fascism. Fight fascism vote blue.
Que the people that say it describes biden but can not provide examples. Im waiting.
Vote blue for communism.
Trump 2024🇺🇸 MAGA
Ok Maggat
just the excuse the government will use when they rig another election. down with the US government. they are illegitimate and i do not recognize them.
You can feel their desperation as they realize this prosecution is a massive failure, and sleepy Joe will undoubtedly lose the election.
I still think we are seeing, Meet the ‘fake news’ now and not Meet the press. Wake up NBC and report the truth. What is the truth? Are there ANY Republicans at NBC ? I havent seen one.
Can anyone explain when Biden has 21 shell companies yet doesn’t sell a thing
Anybody can see, it’s a frame up.
Trump is a 2 year old that needs to be permanently put in time out.
and , what of the hostages?…?
I wonder if they know how ridiculous they look in the Trump cos play costumes. I hope they get exactly what is coming to them .
Once again mainstream media running interference for Trump. Always framing from the powerful side and being their shills
Max sentence, for the crime and threatening behavior, in and out of the court house, you think it’s cold in court ,wait till your in jail it’s way colder
With you to the end Adogg. Pelosi is afraid she will go to jail for her crooked tricks .
Make America great again vote blue Our Lives depend upon it😊😊😊
As delusional as Bidumb?
What is the crime again… you still have not said
Trump 2024
Invading Rafa is actually self defense!!!!
Actually defense is only when being attacked.
I don’t see anyone physically attacking them!
Congratulations, proud of you!
Trone made money getting people drunk? …big shocker.
You people are delusional!
I don’t stand with the Republican party they’ve been feeding us nothing but bull crap bullcrap live that is they go on Fox News and and Max news or newsmax Derek Ford they spread their lives on them TV show and our preachers in our churches watch these shows on their TV and then they tell us to vote Donald j Trump that’s how they get people to vote for him well I don’t listen to the church people I listen to my own inner self and I’m voting for Joe Biden
What happened to abortions
The representatives coming into the court room certainly isn’t a good sign. Particularly, given what they said. Bashing the judge, bashing the case itself and misinforming the public about the clarity of the charges. I am 100% sure that nobody in the court room has any questions as to what the infringement on the laws is. The jury is witnessing the defendant sleep every day. This is why I have little doubt they will eventually believe Mrs Clifford and Mr Cohen. The mountain of documentary evidence besides them is piling up so high that there really is no need to display it as “close call” for the media. Regardless of how ridiculous the statements of the defendant and his goon squad outside of court may be.
So acquittal or hung jury?
@@josefeibl8230 Conviction!
the media is not what it use to be,they have to lie now.Trump 2024!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!God bless America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it is open and shut and a very big joke bottom line micheal cowan went to jail lieing for trump so why would he not want the man who put him in this mess to do his time for his crimes plain and simple he is the only person who delt with trump everybody else just settled for losing their law licenses and doing jail time for trump .(MAGA ).they need to refraise that make it MIGA (make idiots get attorneys) ,
No one caressssssssss. let it go
What job for the government are you allow to show up after drinking and make decisions for your country. Other then under cover agents. And I’m not talking about like Boebart under the covers lol .😮😮
What objective Journalism, absolutely zero comment of the never before in America Legal processes which are abusive in purpose. No Journalist reporting on the Criminal actions of the DNC or Schumer? The FBI and the special council north tampering with the process by tampering with evidence.
you lie boooo
How come MSNBC is not talkin about Costello. Robert Costello, former Cohen lawyer testified before the red tie brigade that Cohen is fake and told him I swear to God, Bob, I don’t have anything on Donald Trump,'”
Trump 20-24 years in prison! NBC cut the part where Ramaswamy had a Freudian slip and called Trump a sham politician lol.
Wow, I haven’t watched NBC in eons. I knew they were biased against Trump but they are worse than even I imagined. I had hope they had retained, some journalistic integrity, assuming they ever had any, of course, which I now doubt very much. This is sad for journalism as a profession. Then again, their professionalism has been suspect for centuries.
Jefferson frequently condemned the press as passionately as he had advanced their right to publish freely. “I deplore … the putrid state into which our newspapers have passed and the malignity, the vulgarity, and mendacious spirit of those who write for them,” he wrote in 1814. “Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper,” he complained in a letter to another friend.
For good measure he wrote to his ally in Congress, the Massachusetts politician Barnabas Bidwell: “As for what is not true, you will always find abundance in the newspapers.”
“If by the liberty of the press were understood merely the liberty of discussing the propriety of public measures and political opinions, let us have as much of it as you please: But if it means the liberty of affronting, calumniating and defaming one another, I, for my part, own myself willing to part with my share of it.” —Benjamin Franklin (1789)
“Look fellas, give me a break, all I need is for you to find me 11780 votes, ” The feastering hunk of flaming pig manure who said that should be in jail.
Please, don’t EVER invite Rubio back on your show.
Usually when this has happened in other countries, our CIA was involved somehow!!
if it is meet the press it is hate on Trump, promote Biden and Kamala (people that also have sociopathic characteristics). IT is MEET THE PROPAGANDA
Trump 2024. NBC needs to stop its lies.
Listen to NBC try and explain away this disaster for Bragg and his case. CNN and MSNBC were floored by this unraveling. If the jury is fair, not unbiased, just fair, even CNN Anderson Cooper said there is reasonable doubt.
