Maggie Haberman reporting from inside the courthouse: Emil Bove, the defense lawyer, is currently arguing that it was fairly well-known, if not widely spoken about, that The Enquirer was trying to help Trump during his 2016 campaign.

"Likewise, I have nothing to do with the National Enquirer and unlike Lyin' Ted Cruz I do not surround myself with political hacks and henchman and then pretend total innocence."

Here’s how an experienced reporter can provide added value: recalling a quintessential Trump lie from seven years ago.
I wonder if the jury will learn about it.
