Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : Cohen testified that RedFinch, a tech company hired to rig online polls in favor of Trump, was owed $50,000 for its services.
40% : He testified "it's better" if Trump is found not guilty because it "gives me more to talk about in the future," referring to his financial gain from talking about the trial on his podcast and TikTok account.
39% : Cohen was also asked if he would financially benefit if Trump is convicted.
33% : Cohen was the last witness -- at least for now -- for prosecutors, who are trying to prove that Trump sought to bury unflattering stories about himself and then falsified internal business records to cover it up as part of a scheme to illegally influence the 2016 presidential election.
29% : In other words, he understood how disreputable he was, so in telling the jury to convict Trump, it would be less beneficial to him.
24% : Cohen's theft simply stands by itself as a great example of an unprosecuted crime even as President Trump is being prosecuted with draconian threats of imprisonment on a basic bookkeeping argument whose statute of limitations has long expired.
22% : Now it's an invented crime and a witness so crummy his general crumminess is used as an argument to convict Trump to ensure that he doesn't profit from it?
15% : It wasn't all the bad stuff he did in court, he also tried to manipulate the jury into convicting Trump:Cohen says it's better for him if Trump doesn't get convicted: During cross-examination, Blanche asked Cohen, "Do you have a financial interest in the outcome of this case?"
