Trump lawyer Todd Blanche: "Do you have a financial interest in the outcome of this case?"
Cohen: "Yes, sir."
Asked specifically if Cohen will benefit financially from a conviction, Cohen says it's better if Trump is found *not* guilty because it "gives me more to talk about in the future."
Courtroom reaction is audible.

People like Cohen, he is witty and intelligent.
Yes, it was quite clever of him to turn the question around.
