The two men will come face to face in a Manhattan courtroom, where Cohen is slated to take the witness stand and testify about Trump’s business practices.
Asked how he felt about testifying against Trump, whom Cohen fiercely defended for decades before turning on him, Cohen replied in a text message that he was “confident,” adding: “I’m not the one sitting in the defendant’s seat this time.” Cohen’s testimony is likely to be some of the most contentious of the trial, not only because his account is critical to the case but also because he is a convicted felon who served a prison sentence after pleading guilty in 2018 to federal tax evasion and campaign finance violations tied to his role in paying hush money during the 2016 presidential election to a porn star who claimed she had an affair with Trump.
