Q - Which liar do we trust more, Cohen or Trump?
A - Cohen, for several reasons:
1. No president was more mendacious than Trump, with over 30K verifiable lies during his term. Cohen is a piker by comparison.
2. Cohen's conviction was largely for lying on Trump's behalf (making Trump's attacks on it ironic).
3. Cohen's testimony is corroborated by other witnesses and extensive documents, while Trump is contradicted by them, and probably won't even testify anyway.
