Yes, at this point, a directed verdict would be the best damage control the judge could provide his party. Stop embarrassing themselves, like we knew they would by relying on a man like Michael Cohen to prove their case.
Cohen was caught in a lie, and the jury knows it. The other witnesses were negative character witnesses, to say that Trump was a micro-managing adulterer. Cohen said he called Trump through his bodyguard and talked about the NDA. We know that was a lie.
Absolutely no one saw Trump enter the records in question, and no one claimed that Trump told them to enter them. They have no evidence, now that they have been caught coaching their star witness to lie.
