Judge ruled that if, in fact, that was done intended to influence the campaign, in fact, he could be convicted of that. the one rudy giuliani is pegging this to is that case ended in a mistrial as well as an acquittal on one count. so the jury couldnt, on the other counts, make up its mind that facts were proven in this case. there are other things that should give giuliani and his defense team pause. there was not krocorroboration that case. they couldnt say this was to influence the election o...

Forward to influence the outcome of a presidential election. thats a crime. the reliance on the john edwards case is horrific. the judge ruled that payments to extramarital affair sexual partners as a matter of law constitutes an illegal campaign finance violation. sounds like it fits in that box with a bow. donald trump through rudy giuliani needs to find another way to defend himself through these charges. >> any other reaction to rudy giuliani besides the edwards defense? >> he couldnt have b...

Kushner have their own interests in cozying up to the regime. also topics of discussion include things much more petty and tabloid centric than that, including the dirt the national enquirer had on msnbc colleagues of yours -- joe scarborough and mika brzezinski. so when it came -- >> i was just going say, you brought up a lot of really good points. i want to get mayas perspective on this. what would prosecutors want to learn about the relationship between pecker and jared kushner? >> what they ...

Didnt meet the standard of a particular case is a different thing than to say the law doesnt require that in general. rudy giuliani is confusing these two cases. >> what does david pecker have that could create serious problems for the president? >> we havent seen what david pecker told a grand jury specifically, but we imagine its most likely the same thing that was listed in this non-profit agreement with his company, ami, that he was involved in this meeting with cohen and probably trump in 2...

>> yeah, thats absolutely right. i mean, as one of the reporters who was covering trumps treatment of women, even before the "access hollywood" tape was released, it was a bubbling issue. it was something that cohen himself was working to swat away every time it surfaced. as early as 2015, when people were showing up with sort of incriminating stories, he was directing them to ami or trying to hush them up on his own. october 7th, i believe, when the "access hollywood" tape was released, it took...

About himself to win an election, you already know that he is absolutely willing to abuse short, so we would translate this as president as, what ways would he use his authority and relationship to a.m.i., to pecker, through jared kushner to protect his administration? and its possible that there may have been various forms of abuse of power in doing that. what the actual crimes might be would depend on what the conversations are. but one question would be, are there other people youre paying of...

His political aspirations. i think that will be as dangerous for him as sort of the broader picture of the collusion, the financial collusion. >> let me pick up on that point for you, david. now that david pecker is cooperating with the special counsel, what should president trump be worried about? >> everything. i mean, literally everything. has eleanor just hinted at, you showed that chart at the beginning of the show. there is not a single part of his life now that is not under some scrutiny,...

Not a crime, sure, thats one thing, but he but what hes trying to wrap in that statement is not quite accurate. we clearly see that prosecutors have gone after michael cohen, they have worked with ami as copti witnesses to show these payments were meant to obviate the process and highlight the information voters needed. that is a crime, and rudy giulianis efforts to obfuscate that do not change the facts. >> eric, when we look at the new "wall street journal" nbc poll and 70% of republicans say ...

We have a recording of the president he knows very well what campaign finance laws were on the 2012 record wing played. is his argument essentially shattered now. is that recording that something lawyers can look at and say, you do know what the law was? >> i would start by saying it wasnt a credible argument to begin with based on all the facts we have in public, including the fact that donald trump himself lied about whether he even knew about the payments. if you werent participating willfull...

>> he was a friend, but there were nugs. so as a result of this friendship, he had an insatiable appetite for news they were putting out there about trump and his opponents. he also got more likes because people were going to his website and his facebook. >> knowing how these things go down or what may have been asked david pecker in terms of what. >> leet be honest, there is a lot of. we can only imagine it had to be sophisticated enough that ami and david pecker was able to get
