Michael Cohen details hush money meeting with Trump in White House

• Cohen, a convicted felon, testified Monday that Trump directed him to make the $130,000 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.
• Trump, who has denied wrongdoing, is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with the hush money payment.

Driving the news: Cohen testified Tuesday that he visited the White House in 2017 to meet with Trump to discuss a reimbursement for the hush money payment that Cohen facilitated to Daniels.

• "I was sitting with President Trump and he asked me if I was OK. He asked me if I needed money. And I said, 'no all good.' He said because I can get a check. I said, 'no, I'm OK.' He said, 'Alright, just make sure you deal with Allen [Weisselberg],'" Cohen said, per CNN.
• Cohen also testified that he was facing a "tremendous amount of pressure" when he lied to Congress about his connection to plans to build a Trump Tower in Moscow, per the New York Times.

Catch up quick: In his first day of testimony, Cohen described the worry in the Trump campaign before the 2016 election over the impact of Daniels' story if it got out.

• Trump said Daniels' story was a "total disaster," Cohen testified.
• He also testified that the presumptive GOP presidential nominee told him at the time: "Just take care of it."

What to watch: The Manhattan courthouse has increasingly become a place for Trump allies to show their support for the former president and presumptive GOP presidential nominee.

• House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) attended court on Tuesday. Trump vice presidential contenders North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Vivek Ramaswamy have joined Trump in court on Tuesday.
