It was noted that conservative lawyer George Conway predicted via Mediaite that Michael Cohen's testimony in Donald Trump's hush money trial would be damning.

Less than a month before the 2016 election, Cohen had made a whopping $130,000 payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels on Trump's behalf.

Prosecutors allege Cohen was paid back by the Trump Organization after Daniels claimed she had an affair with Trump, and the money was intended to prevent her from going public before the election. In the end, Cohen was found guilty of participating in a fraudulent scheme that violated campaign finance rules.

Joy Reid addressed some who argue that Cohen's status as a convicted felon could create difficulties for prosecutors if he testifies, particularly on Friday's episode of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

“It is the same crime we are adjudicating in this case,” Reid said. “It's just that Michael Cohen already went to prison for this and Donald Trump is now on trial for being his partner in this crime. Every time people say, “Nobody is going to believe Michael Cohen, he's a felon.” That's why he's a felon! He did that!”

Conway responded by saying that the testimony heard so far in court confirms what Cohen said about the case:

And every single testimony that comes to light shows that Michael Cohen has come clean and is telling the truth about it. Now they'll go after him and say, “Well, you submitted this form to the Taxi Commission.” Whatever. They will go through all sorts of things. And it's like, so what, tell me what is Michael lying about on this stand that relates to this case?

And they got nothing because he was confirmed [David] Pecker, he was vindicated by his banker, he was vindicated by the texts, he was vindicated by the tapes he recorded of Donald Trump, he was vindicated by Hope Hicks.

Conway speculated that Trump's lawyers will try to “provoke” Cohen when he's on the witness stand, but that won't work because “he has the truth on his side.”

He concluded:

“I think the Trump people should actually be pretty scared of Michael Cohen. And this is Michael Cohen's chance to set the record straight, set the record straight with Donald Trump. And the way he does that is simply to go with the flow, admit what he did wrong and just stick to the facts. And he's smart enough to do that. And I think people will be surprised by that.”
