As Michael Cohen incriminates President Trump, FOX News host questions a convict's credibility

---

President Donald Trump's former attorney and fixer Michael Cohen portrayed him on Wednesday (Feb. 27) as a "con man", a "racist" and "cheat."

During incriminating testimony before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, Cohen provided evidence that show Trump paid hush money to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels shortly before the election to keep her from talking about an affair. Lawmakers were also told that Trump knew in advance that the anti-secrecy organization WikiLeaks planned to publish hacked Democratic National Committee emails.

FOX News legal analyst Jeanine Pirro spoke to Professor of Journalism Israel Balderas while visiting Palm Beach Atlantic University as a guest of the LeMieux Center for Public Policy. It was on the day Cohen gave his testimony to Congress. The host of Justice with Judge Jeanine argued the public shouldn't believe what a convicted perjurer and confessed liar has to say.
