Judge Merchan asked prosecutors to direct Michael Cohen to refrain from commenting about Trump or the case on social media as he prepares take the stand.

1. Or what?

He'll fine him $1,000?

[TexasTowelie]

3. I think that the only income that Cohen is currently receiving

is for book royalties and podcasting. A $1,000 fine may be more significant to Cohen than we might believe.

2. I thought that Cohen said he was not going to talk to the media a few weeks ago. I admit

I have not paid attention much to Cohen lately.

4. Cohen loves the cameras. I hope he can zip it for a few weeks.

6. I cross my fingers-and toes that he does.

5. I hope Cohen watched Stormy and takes a lesson....she did an excellent cross -exam response.

....mostly she kept her cool and came across as honest, but also managed to push back.

7. Stomy was witty at times but sorry to say I do not think Cohen is. But staying cool and honest

is what the jury needs to see and hear.

9. The cool part I get

But he needs a lot of work on the honesty part. I'm worried the defense will have a field day with him

8. I'd prefer it if Cohen played it straight and tight

Leave the wise guy stuff for later.
