When cross-examination resumed following the mid-morning break, Michael Cohen testified that he is considering a run for Congress.
"Going after President Trump, that's your name recognition?" defense attorney Todd Blanche asked.

"My name recognition is because of the journey I've been on." Cohen answered. "It is affiliated to Mr. Trump -- yes -- not because of Mr. Trump."
"Your journey includes near-daily attacks on President Trump?" Blanche asked.
Eventually Cohen conceded, "Yes sir."
