Michael Cohen testified against Donald Trump in the Trump Organization's civil fraud trial in Manhattan. This was the first time Cohen and Trump had been in the same room in 5 years. Cohen described how Trump directed him to manipulate Trump's financial statements by inflating the value of his properties to hit arbitrary net worth numbers Trump wanted. Cohen said he would "reverse engineer" valuations with the CFO to increase the values of properties like Trump Tower, Trump Park Ave, Trump World Tower, and others. Cross-examination of Cohen by Trump's lawyer got heated as Cohen loudly objected to one line of questioning.
