Trump Comments on New York Court Cases in Late-Night Post

Donald Trump posted a message on Truth Social late at night, expressing his views on ongoing legal challenges he faces. In his post, he described himself as an innocent man who has been treated unfairly. He referenced a witness in his cases, stating that the witness recanted their testimony and claimed to have been pressured to testify against him. Trump specifically mentioned the civil fraud claims from New York Attorney General Letitia James and the criminal proceedings related to a payment to Stormy Daniels. He argued that the cases should be dismissed based on the witness's statements. Trump's former attorney, Michael Cohen, who has cooperated with the investigations, has claimed that he felt pressured to provide testimony that would support the prosecution's case. However, it is noted that Cohen has not officially recanted his sworn testimony in court. The article also mentions that the civil fraud case relied on Trump's financial statements and other witness testimonies, indicating that Cohen was not the sole basis for the cases against Trump.
