Not watching, but wouldn't be surprised if Cohen's holding his own. He may be dumb and crooked, but he spent years working for Donald Trump. The angry shouting of old white guys in suits is but the soft whisper of an ocean breeze to him.

I just love how in the Cohen testimony there's a bit about how Donald Trump told him that his check would be held up by the White House systems.
Which means that he just continued his antics even though they will now be public record.

Imagine what sort of shit they'll drag up once he's out of the WH.  :lol

LMAO Trump speaks in code according to Cohen that only people close to him understand.
"He says one thing but wants you to do something else" (are they sure?  :lol)

Also no Russian money in the campaign according to Cohen and no pee tape that he knows about.

In the Youtube comments there are people claiming this is an attempt to distract from Trump's Saigon summit. I mean, the timing might actually be intentional, but it's still a dumb take.

No frills questions about inflating his income and how it relates to his properties, his inherited money and who the committee can talk to if Cohen didnt know. They're going after Trumps taxes and web of income at some point.

"Trump, Kim abruptly cut short summit after failing to reach nuclear deal" (wapo)
Hilarious.

And the way "conservative" media treated Cohen's testimony would make Goebbels proud.
Almost 50% of the US population appears to be brainwashed, living inside a fantasy land.

“Despite coming on the eve of more politically timed attacks, amidst Cohen admitting their was no collusion, Trump shows courage and walks away from a bad deal unlike Obama and Dems that bowed to Iran and took an awful deal to get headlines. Does this show how truly great a negotiator Trump is?”
