Donald Trump’s fixer-turned-foe awaits a bruising round of questioning from the former president’s lawyers on Tuesday after giving evidence that linked the celebrity client to all aspects of a hush money scheme.

Michael Cohen returns to the stand on Tuesday as the prosecution’s star witness, where a day earlier he delivered a matter-of-fact testimony that went to the heart of the former president’s trial.
