Boris sanchez, who is in west palm beach. All right, let me begin with you, boris, as the president takes off, leaves florida, making the way back to the white house. Meantime, trumps attorney, sekulow, is saying that there were conflicts and thats why Joseph Digenova is not going to be joining the legal team. This after just days when the white house said that he would. What happened . Reporter thats right, fred. It really is interesting, because the white house knew about these potential conflicts ahead of time and the ones we know about, at least, are tied to his wife, victoria toensing, whos actually representing several clients that are involved in the russia investigation, though we are told that she received signed waivers that would allow her to represent the president , anyway. We were initially told that digenova was joining the president s team early in the week. We know that he and his wife met with President Trump on thursday. From sources, we understand that it was a productive meeting. That the president liked what they had to say, but he was still uncertain if he actually wanted them to lead his legal team. Ultimately, from that statement, from jay sekulow, and from the president s tweet earlier today, you get the sense that they are not joining the legal team, though jay sekulow notably did leave the door open for them to continue to council the president on certain legal matters. One other note about the president s tweet, he said that reports that the white house was having difficulty finding representation were fake news. Last week, cnn reported that the white house had approached at least four prominent d. C. Attorneys, defense attorneys, for representation. All four of them reportedly turning the white house down. So the president is responding to that. We should take his tweet with a grain of salt, though, because as you know, fred, last week, he also tweeted that he was thrilled with his legal team, with the job that john dowd was doing, naming john dowd, specifically. Saying that there would not be any shake ups and reports about possible shake ups on his legal team were fake news and lo and behold, a few days later, we saw john dowd resign, fred. All right. Let me check in with shimon. Shimon, is there any connection between, you know, the attorney, john dowds departure and now Joseph Digenova is not going to be on the legal team, even though earlier in the week, the white house said that he would. Reporter right. So we know that john dowd, based on some of the reporting my colleagues here have been doing, that john dowd was not happy about this move to hire this new attorney and perhaps even quit as a result of this move by the president. Look, i think the bottom line is, anyone who is going to join this legal team is going to have a hard time, because the issue really is, theyre dealing with a very difficult client. And we know that other laun l firms have been approached, other lawyers have been approached to potentially represent the president and many have said no. One thing we know, he is a very difficult person, a very difficult client. Everything we see, we doesnt listen to the counsel hes been given. We know that his legal team has taken issue with some of that. Certainly some of his tweets. And especially for people in washington, d. C. Who like to stay behind the scenes and negotiate, especially what some have been doing for the president , with this potential meeting with the special counsel, where they want to question him. So its very difficult really for new lawyers to come in at this point, but certainly hes going to need to hire someone else. And the other thing is whether or not he brings in perhaps someone from new york to this team. All right. Shimon prokupecz and boris sanchez, thank you so much. Here with me now, cnn president ial historian and former director of the nixon president ial library, tim niftali and Senior Correspondent for the hill, amy parns. All right, good to see you both. Okay, how about if we look at the week that was and perhaps theres some anticipation of whats around the corner. It was just last monday that Joseph Digenova, former attorney in washington, d. C. Was announced as joining the president s personal team as it relates to the russian probe. And tuesday, the fallout from trumps congratulations to putin for winning the election. And on that same day, there was also the Stormy Daniels polygraph report that was released. On wednesday, trump reportedly was furious over the leak that he was warned by his own wohite house team not to congratulate putin on the call. And trumps top lawyer, with john dowd, resigned. National security adviser, h. Rmt r. Mcmaster out, replaced by john bolton. Attorneys Joseph Digenova and his wife, victoria toensing, they have a law firm, they met with the president on the same day that playboy pinup Karen Mcdougal tells cnn that trump tried to pay her after sex during their affair. And then friday, trump threatened to veto the omnibus spending bill because of daca and his border wall, but ended up signing it anyway. And then, today, we find out that digenova is not going to be part of the legal team. Whoo. Thats a lot. All right. So, tim, you know, it has been a very complicated week. Im sure the white house wants to be optimistic that this will not be a complicated week upcoming, but you know, they have to recover. How does it . How well, one of the ways they recover, i assume, is by not having so much visual visible chaos. Having a stable team around the president. So that we can get used to certain people representing him. The other is by not telling us or indicating hell do one thing and then doing something else. He was hurt by the uncertainty surrounding whether or not he would veto the spending bill. If he wants to send the signal to his supporters and others that he is in control and shaping the president to himself, then he cant be changing all the time, the way he did this past week. This was not a good week for the president. And so, amy, you know, as it pertains to the legal team, what does all this turnover potentially mean . Is it a sign that this Robert Mueller investigation is really rattling the white house in a very big way . I think it is. And it has to be. Its a looming matter. Its not going away. The president wanted this to go away very quickly. He kept signaling this was going to end very soon and its not going to end anytime soon. In fact, muellers train is gaining speed and hes getting closer and closer to trump and not so much the outside people around him. So i think it has to be worrying them. And thats why a lot of people, particularly a lot of these lawyers in washington dont want to go anywhere near it. And so, you know, ive spoken to a lot of republicans who also dont want to touch it. This is a mess for the white house. It has been for a while. And it continues to be that. And so i think hes going to have a really tough time trying to get people on the same page and trying to have a Cohesive Strategy that he can agree with and that his lawyers sort of agree with and are sending him down that path. And yesterday, you had this unbelievably powerful assemblage of marches across this country. And frankly, across the globe. And the president and members of congress are under a whole lot of pressure to pass stricter gun laws. We saw the passion coming from a lot of these young people and their families. Heres what senator Chuck Schumer had to say just a short time ago about all of this. Today, i am demanding that leader mcconnell put those bills on the floor of the senate and that speaker ryan put those bills on the floor of the house. And let the American People speak. The nra represents a small minority, but it has a stranglehold on leader mcconnell, on speaker ryan, and if they were simply to let the bills come to the floor, they would pass. And tim, you know, silence from mitch mcconnell, silence from, you know, paul ryan. Silence from the president of the United States on what unfolded before everyones eyes yesterday. For how long can the white house not acknowledge the power behind the voices of these young people and their families . And pain. Well, you know, yesterday was a beautiful moment, because it was a reminder that change in america is not always top down. And there are grassroots movements and they dont have to be started by adults. Yesterday was a reminder that theres a hunger among millennials for leadership. It wasnt partisan. It was about, you know, youve done nothing for us. Weve faced these challenges in our schools. Wheres the adult leadership . So i think the challenge for the baby boomers who are still in control and some of the genxers that their political games may not be as successful Going Forward if theyre facing millennials, millennials that are tired of the system. How long can they wait . I dont know. Theyre trying to wait out the clock, trying to figure out a way to hold on to the house and the senate. And theyre hopeful that the kids will go away. Well, i doubt the millennials will go away. And amy, you know, okay, silence from the president , but also perplexing, silence from the first lady, when this past week, she advocated publicly, you know, for young people, by way of Cyber Bullying and beyond. This silence from the white house on this issue and then, now, kind of a split this week, you know, between the first lady and the president. I mean, what signals are being sent from the white house . Shes going to remain in florida, hell, you know, continue business in washington. And this is a really tenuous time. Yeah, on a lot of levels. On guns, on a personal level, i think, because, you know with that interview tonight, Stormy Daniels on 60 minutes. Exactly, it cant be easy. And for months, ive been hearing this, a lot of people around the white house have been hearing that shes really unhappy. And you know, the white house wants to telegraph that this is a tradition, that she goes down there with her son all the time and wanted to remain out of, you know didnt want to remain out of the spotlight, but, you know, was this was something she does. So i think but it is, obviously, a problem for her, personally. And one that the white house wants to avoid, because its yet another thing that they have to contend with. All right. Amy barnes, tim naftali, thanks to both of you. Appreciate it. Thank you. Its not over yet. Thats the message from students who marched and demand ed gun safety. How theyre tausing this momento hold lawmakers accountable. At crowne plaza, we know Business Travel isnt just business. Theres this. A bit of this. Why not .

Student shootings, survivors, and activist who is called for stricter gun laws during nationwide protests this weekend are make tharg message ing t clear. This is just the beginning. We heard calls for change and a powerful speech punkuated by deafening silence. Since the time that i came out here, it has been 6 minutes and 20 seconds. The shooter has seized shooting and will soon abandon his rifle, blend in with the students as they escape and walk free for an hour before arrest. Fight for your lives before its someone elses job. People have said that i am too young to have these thoughts on my own. People have said that im a tool of some nameless adult. Its not true. I say to those politicians that say that change will not come, i say, we will not stop until every man, every woman, every child and every american can live without fear of gun violence and to that i say, no more. We cannot make america safe again until we arm our teachers. We need to arm our teachers. We need to arm them with pencils, pens, paper, and the money they need they need that money to support their families and to support themselves before they can support the futures in those classrooms, to support the future that sits down at that desk, waiting to learn. Hardhitting messages from young people there. Cnns Diane Gallagher joining us now from the nations capital, not far from where they took to the stage there. So the day after, how are students feeling about all that unfolded . Reporter you know, fred, when i talked to a lot of these students today and immediately after the march last night, a lot of them seemed relieved. Theyve been working on this for weeks now. A lot of them have been channeling their grief, their anger into planning for this. And every single Marjory Stoneman douglas student and really the students that they brought into their movement afterward seemed to feel like it went off exactly as theyd hoped. Maybe even more than theyd hoped for. At this point, most of those kids right now, fred, are getting some rest. A few of them are touring the capital while theyre still here. Most of them are reuniting with their families, though, and heading either back home to florida, back to where they were already planning to go for spring break now, before that shooting happened at their school. Trying to make take a little bit of a break before they get right back into activism and vocatiad. Because thats what they plan to do. Diane gallagher, thank you so much.

Welcome back. Russia is now blaming the u. S. For developing the time of nerve gas formula that poisoned former russian spy and his daughter in the uk earlier this month. A highranking russian official said that the u. S. Developed this poison back in 1998. And this comes as President Trump is considering expelling a group of Russian Diplomats from the u. S. Over that poisoning in the uk. Multiple countries have said they believe russia is likely behind the attacks. Here is what President Trump said when he was asked about it. Who was behind this, mr. President . It looks like it. I spoke with the Prime Minister and we are in deep discussions. A very sad situation. It certainly looks like the russians were behind it. Something that should never, ever happen. And were taking it very seriously. As, i think, are many others. The uk has already removed 23 Russian Diplomats and russia retaliated by ordering expulsions. Cnns Michelle Kosinski has been working this story. So, michelle, you know, the president is weighing in one way. Now russia is responding and saying, you know, hey, you started it, u. S. Yeah, it seems like russia really knows something is coming tomorrow. Because now the accusations that the u. S. Developed this type of nerve agent. Yesterday, russia was trolling the u. S. On twitter again, saying that the u. S. Was putting all its eggs in the uk basket by agreeing with the uks assessment that russia was responsible for these poisoning on foreign soil. Which, of course, is a big deal. So, now, were hearing from a source familiar with discussions that there is an announcement expected tomorrow, could come from the white house or from the state department, and that europeans are seeing signs of optimism. That this is going to be a coordinated announcement tomorrow, with the u. S. And multiple european countries, possibly up to 20 of them, to expel a significant number of Russian Diplomats. The discussions have been going on for some time and we know that President Trump has been recommended to do this by his own National Security team. So this decision now expected, according to sources tomorrow. But theres always a possibility that the president decides to go another way. That would be the story, then, because, you know, multiple members of congress on both sides of the aisle have been pressuring this administration to do more against russia and its activities to act faster, to try to counter its influences. So you can see, there would be a lot of questions if the president doesnt decide to do this. Theres been some concern that he may not. Remember, it was his own National Security team that recommended that he not congratulate president Vladimir Putin on his election win, only days ago. But the president then did just that. So, well see what happens in this decision, but were hearing rumminblings now that the europs are mystic that toptimistic tha will go this way. And that will be met with the response of expelling more u. S. Diplomats from russia. All fascinating. Michelle kosinski, thanks so much.

My donors mom says you were meant to carry his story. All right. Tonight in a highly anticipated tv interview on 60 minutes with Anderson Cooper, porn star Stormy Daniels is expected to provide new details about her alleged affair with President Trump and the hush money she says she received to keep quiet. Daniels is not the only woman fighting to go public about claims about the president. Former playboy model, Karen Mcdougal, says she had a tenmonth relationship with trump about a decade ago if the white house has denied that affair. And in an exclusive interview with cnns Anderson Cooper, mcdougal talks about what caused her to end the alleged affair. Wheres this picture from . That picture is from the apprentice release party that they had at the playboy mansion. So they filmed it like a month beforehand, which is where i met him. And then they had the release party when the apprentice actually aired. So thats when that one was. This is a picture with ivanka trump, melania trump, several of your colleagues and yourself. Correct. Mmhmm. Did so was that the first time you met melania . It is. And honestly, if you can tell, i tried to keep my distance. I tried to go as far away as i could, just because i felt guilty. Do you think she knew . You know, maybe. Maybe. I dont know. You know, it was told to me that they were arguing that night and i said, why . And somebody had said, probably because of you. But i dont know if thats a fact or not, so dont quote me on that one. Did he ever compare you to any of his kids . You know, he hes very proud of ivanka, as he should be. I mean, shes a brilliant woman, shes beautiful, shes, you know, thats his daughter and she should be proud of her. He said i was beautiful like her and, you know, youre a smart girl. And there wasnt a lot of comparing, but there was some, yeah. I heard a lot about her. Yeah. Did that strike you as odd in any way or you know, i know a lot of people think its odd. I you know, theres been some comments ive heard in the news hes said about her. I think those comments are wrong. But do i think its strange that a father would love his daughter so much that he brags about her . No, i brag about my dog that much. I guess some people seeing this are not going to believe that you had a relationship. Hope hicks has said, categorically, you did not have a relationship, theres no truth to this. Mmhmm. When you heard that denial, what did you think . Well, with i thi i think somebodys lying and i can tell you its not me. Its a little hurtful, but at the same time, i have to understand, if he were to have told hope that he didnt do it, i guess i would understand, because hes trying to protect his family, his image, things like that. But it was definitely a little like, wow . Youre going to lie about that . Okay. When youve heard the stories of, you know, Stormy Daniels, who has come forward, who said that she was at the tahoe club as well, and others who said that they were there, you didnt know about that at the time . No, i did not know. Does it what did you think when you heard that . My first thought was, how could she have been with him when i was with him . The only time we werent together on that particular trip was when i well, he was on the golf course golfing. I didnt go, clearly. But i went to every event, every afterthing, parties, daytime things, i was there. Thats why i cant understand. Now, i do remember him saying he came in one day and said, oh, there are a bunch of porn stars out there. They were wanting pictures of me. And i was like, oh, thats funny. Its cute, whatever. I do remember him saying that, but i cant imagine when he found the time, except for maybe the day i left. So, its kind of like, wow. Howd this happen . Did you think maybe this would lead to a marriage . Maybe. Thats something, though, you liked him enough, thats something you would have liked . Maybe. Did he, at the time, say tell you that you were his only girlfriend . Or did that subject you know, we never really discussed that. Um, i knew he talked to ladies, but i didnt know there was anything else. I didnt know he was intimate with other ladies. But i guess if hes makes sense if hes doing it behind his wifes back, why would he not do it behind my back, so. But at that time, in the frame of mind you were in there, you thought i thought i was the only one, i did. I thought i was the only one. Were you worried about people finding out . I was, for a while. You talked to your sister and others, but i was for a while. In fact, there were a couple of instances where we were out in public and he had his hand on my back. And i kept thinking, im looking around, theres a lot of people. Im like, how do these people like, what are they thinking . I dont know what theyre thinking, but i thought it was going to get out. I have scared every time we went to an event, this is going to get out. And i didnt want it to get out. But at the same time, i felt so honored to be with him in a sense, i thought, i dont care who knows. But i didnt want that he reputation either. So it was kind of like, the saying, damned if you do, and damned if you dont. Youre saying you didnt want it to get out because . I mean, look at the bad things people are saying about me now. I didnt want that then and i didnt want it for him either. This is a hard question to ask, but you said you had sex that first time. All these times you saw him, this was an ongoing sexual relationship . Absolutely. Can you estimate how many times you actually saw him . Again, when youre in a relationship, do you count how many times you have sex . No. However, i can tell you, we saw each other a minimum of five times a month, up to bigger numbers per month. Over the course of how long . Over the course of 2006 through, i think i ended the relationship april of 2007. So we were together ten months before i chose to end it. So we saw each other quite frequently. So dozens of times, you were together. Many dozens of times, yes. And you were intimate, many dozens of times. Mmhmm. This is another tough question. And again, you dont have to answer it, but its been raised with other people, did he ever use protection . No. No, he didnt. Was that something you thought about or it didnt concern you at the time . You know, we talked about it right beforehand. He was starting to and then hes like, i dont like these things. And you know, we discussed things, do you do blah, blah, blah, we were just honest with each other, and we didnt. We didnt use any. You talked about ending the relationship. Who ended the relationship . I did. Why . I was just feeling so guilty. It was just digging inside me. I think the excitement of it took over for a while. And i did care about the man. Im not going to lie. So the that made it hard to end it, but i think i just started feeling so bad about myself. Like, how could i do this to, a, myself, but to b, a family. Whether they get along or not, its still a family. I just needed to get out of it. I you know, i i i just needed to get out of it. It was just tearing me apart in the long run. Thats a hard thing to do, end to a relationship. Any relationship. It was very hard. But i knew i needed to get out. All right.

But to help others, they first had to protect themselves. I have afib. Even for a nurse, its complicated. And it puts me at higher risk of stroke. That would be devastating. I had to learn all i could to help protect myself. Once i got the facts, my doctor and i chose xarelto®. Xarelto®. To help keep me protected. Oncedaily xarelto®, a latestgeneration blood thinner. Significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Xarelto® works differently. Warfarin interferes with at least 6 bloodclotting factors. Xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor interacting with less of your bodys natural bloodclotting function. For afib patients wellmanaged on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. Dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase risk of stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. It may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding.

And before starting xarelto®about any conditions, such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Its important to learn all you can. To help protect yourself from a stroke. Talk to your doctor about xarelto®. Theres more to know™. I knew at that exact moment, whatever it takes, wherever i have to go. Im beating this. My main focus was to find a team of doctors that work together. When a patient comes to ctca, theyre meeting a team of physicians that specialize in the management of cancer. Breast Cancer Treatment is continuing to evolve. And i would say that ctca is definitely on the cusp of those changes. Patients can be overwhelmed. We really focus on taking the time with each individual patient so they can choose the treatment appropriate for them. The care that ctca brings is the kind of care ive wanted for my patients. Being able to spend time with them, have a whole team to look after them is fantastic. I empower women with choices. Its not just picking a surgeon. Its picking the care team, and feeling secure where you are. Surround yourself with the team of Breast Cancer experts visit cancercenter. Com breast Appointments Available now. Im very happy to be here debuting my new look, which is aggressively fat, yet still very judgy. Im Danielle Perez and im a standup comedian. When i was 20, i was living in san francisco, living that whole sex in the city life. I was run over by a streetcar. I came to in the hospital and my mother says to me, danielle, you dont have any feet. My legs were amputated below the knee. I was in such denial about the reality, that denial allowed me to get out of the house, learn how to drive. But it also delayed that healing process. I got very depressed after that. My best friend, her roommate was a standup comedian. So we started going to a lot of his shows. By the third one, i was like, i could do this. I started going to open mickes and i just fell in love with it. I was on the price is right and i won a treadmill and a walkin sauna. That video went viral. I was even contacted by Jimmy Kimmel Live . I guess ill just what everyone else does and just use it as a piece of furniture. Stand up comedy has helped me heal because its really given me purpose. What im trying to convey, its okay to be yourself. Welcome back. We expect to hear more allegations tonight from adult film star, Stormy Daniels, about her claims of an affair with President Trump. Shes giving her first extended Television Interview to Anderson Cooper on 60 minutes. Joining me to discuss this is jerry jackson, a cnn criminal defense attorney. And joining me is gena loudoun, a member of President Trumps Media Advisory board. So, you first. There was a tweet today from daniels attorney, and he tweeted this. Note, a, not all of our evidence will be mentioned, displayed tonight. That would be foolish. B, we are not sure what cbs will include, but we know a lot from the full interview will have to be cut because of the time allowed. C, tonight is not the end. Its the beginning. A rather ominous warning there. So, joey, is this the attorney downplaying expectations for tonight. Or is it possible that he knows that the legal battle is about to intensify . The twitter wars. I shall not say they begin, because they have begun. Those are what are intensifying at this point. Good to see you always, fredricka. Heres the reality. I think what hes doing, as he mentioned, hes firing that warning shot. And what hes doing is protecting his clients interest in the following way. Hes not in the business of public relations, though certainly hes been doing a good job of it by appearing on tv. I think what hes doing is showing that the trump people have to be very careful in terms of what they spin and how they spin this interview. Because there may be a lot that he knows and a lot that certainly he has in terms of evidentiary information that is not disclosed. So, say, for example, trump or his people come out calling her a liar or doing any other type of thing, then it goes to the issue of, is she being denafame . And the defamation at the heart of that is a falsehood. So if theres something factually false that she can ultimately back up in terms of what she said, then i think trump and his surrogates have to be careful and mindful of that. And thats exactly what hes doing in that tweet. And gena, we noticed from your twitter account that you visited the president last night at maralago. He and the family and all of the friends there and you even tweeted this picture and you wrote, lovely to see the real donald trump relaxed and happy. As for those who scream chaos and turmoil in the white house, i have never seen one of them here, not once. How could they know . So what do you mean, seen one of them. Do you mean the chaos and the turmoil, one of them . Or are you talking about the people who are alleging to have a relationship . Never seen them a maralago. What do you mean . Im talking about the people who allege that theres some sort of chaos or turmoil in the administration. It looks to me like we have a president in the white house whos accomplished more than any president in history. He looks very confident, very happy, very comfortable in his own skin, when you see him in and out a casual atmosphere, hes surrounded by family and friends who love him, especially here in palm beach at the southern white house. And i just my point was that for all these people who do all of this speculating about whats happening behind the scenes, i never see them there. So im not so sure that they would know exactly what the president is feeling or acting or thinking. Well, what did you see, while at maralago, what did you see between melania or donald trump there . I make a habit of not talking about any details of what i see of the president you tweeted a picture. I tweeted a picture. It started there. Well, yeah, with you know, he i, of course, i would never do that disrespectfully. Just the point is that the president is very happy. Hes very much surrounded by his family and his friends and his loved ones and he gets a standing ovation, no matter where he goes, he walks in the room, everyone stands up and claps. People feel good about where hes put us economically, where hes put us from a perspective of National Security. People feel good about the things to come in america. And i think were there any discussions about the upcoming 60 minutes interview this evening . All of those people there at maralago, friends, family members, not one person talked about the curiosities about what might be said . Involving Stormy Daniels . I think the American People are not that curious about im talking about at maralago while you were there . Since you let us know that you were there, what was discussed as it pertains to that libs i told you, i dont discuss private conversations on national television, but i will say that i think that the American People are much more concerned about the things that impact their daily lives. They want jobs. They want the Health Care Disaster that was created by the last administration fixed. They know this president is the caveat, the answer to that. He works tirelessly. And these sorts of discussions, you know, it was the russia thing, then it was, whatever, the women accusations, where we never saw any evidence of anything. I think people the American People are generally tired of that. And they want to move on to, hey, what is this going to be mean to my pocketbook, to my job, to my childrens future. So in a legal case, joey, part of the evidence is testimony. And an account and these two women are making these allegations. So, is this a political problem . Is this a significant legal problem . I think you have some of above. And i just have to take umbrage. Im not here to get into the politics of it. Certainly the law, and ill address that, but we cant have wild allegations. Accomplished the most in American History . What . In terms of firing people from the white house, in terms of ending daca . Things the complete chaos . No, in terms of low unemployment. Home ownership. Lets hear joey. I could probably likewise go on all day with the other side, was i wont. So lets talk about the facts and not hyperbole and misrepresentations and every other word but you did and i was citing facts. Lets discuss facts. In terms of the facts, i think it certainly could be problematic. Listen, its not against the law to have an affair, right . So the reality becomes is that shell tell her story and that, of course, will be interesting to some and will not be interesting to others. But the critical issue is whether or not there was some kind of Campaign Finance violation here. And i think thats what needs to be looked at critically. Now, perhaps there was not. But im not sure if many lawyers, specifically, ive been a proud member of the new york bar for two decades and more. I have never, notwithstanding my zealous advocacy for clients decided to write a check because im a kind guy, a nice guy, and want to protect someone i really care about. The issue becomes, who directed you to do that . Are there witnesses, individuals, other people who suggest that you did it not because youre kind, but to protect the president and medicate a campaign contribution. In the event you did that, was it disclosed . Certainly, its in excess of the limits that are imposed. Thats the legal issue as it pertains to that. So i think thats what investigators will examine, if they have the taste to examine it. And the legal issue, this nondisclosure agreement, she, Stormy Daniels did accept the 130,000. Now her team saying, you know, that because donald trump didnt sign it, that that agreement was not valid. But then, youve got trumps team talking about this 1 million fine potentially for tonights interview for allegedly breaking this nondisclosure agreement. Even the challenge that perhaps she may owe them or owe trump 20 million for the many times that she has spoken. So, a legal issue or not . A relationship or not . Look, we live in a society where theres freedom of contract. You like trump, you dont like trump, you know, you like him some, you dislike him some, look at the facts, look at the legalities of it. People enter into contracts every day. Im one that believes that this was a valid contract. There was an offer, offer of 130,000 to be quiet, acceptance of this offer, as a result of that, you had this meeting of the minds. So its valid. So the question now becomes, what happens when she speaks. The contract provides for two things. Discouragement, whats that . You give back the 130,000 under it will provision os. Contract. It also has a liquidated damage provision. That in english means that we anticipate both parties be damaged 1 million per breach, thats what she would have to pay. However, liquidated damage breaches are not enforced if it could be deemed that the 1 million is a penalty. So she could be penalized for speaking tonight, but i dont think in the area of 1 million. Not even close. Gina, will you be watching the 60 minutes interview . The palm beach boat show is in town and thats where ill be tonight. Ill be watching. Enjoy.
