Amid other questions, Speier asked Cohen: “How many times did Mr. Trump ask you to threaten an individual or entity on his behalf?”

Cohen answered, “quite a few times.” But Speier wanted the number. She asked, “50 times?” Cohen said “more.” She asked, “100 times?” Cohen said, “more.” Finally, Speier asked, “500 times?” And Cohen answered: “Probably.”

A clip of the exchange floated around Twitter with users interjecting their own questions to which the answer is “500. Probably.”
