Along with species, harold fo fold jr. , Katie Pavlich and greg got field. Its 5 00 in New York City and this is the five. The fixture turn a photo. Michael cohen finally taking the stand and alvin braggs Hush Money Trial against donald trump where the radical d. A. Putting all of his chips in the testimony of the disgraced Serial Perjuring convicted felon that is behind prison walls for 13 months. Today, the jury got to hear from a desperate and duplicitous man. Longing for trumps approval and affirmation and will do anything for ed including taking out a Home Equity Line of credit to take care of the situation for his boss. Secretly recording donald trump without his knowledge. Still no evidence of a crime y yet. Trump is still gagged and unable to respond to his former attorney. Everybodys saying, there is no crime. D. A. Bragg by the way, he turned it down in the case. It couldnt be brought because seven years ago, eight years ago, right in the middle of my president ial campaign. There is no crime here. This is 4 weeks of keeping me from not getting paid. The whole world is laughing now from new york, weaponized legal system. Jesse trumps lawyers havent yet had the chance to dunk on cohens credibility. They will have plenty of material to work with. Last month, he said he would cease posting anything about trump during the trial. He goes on tiktok to trash and wearing a shirt that shows the former president behind bars and of Orange Jumpsuit and handcuffs. Also trying to cash in by shopping this reality show called the fixer. My name is Michael Cohen. For years, i was a personal lawyer for a notorious and bad man. Since then, ive been on a journey of redemption looking to set things right. Now im paying it forward. Wielding the tools that ive learned in trouble. The little guy doesnt usually have access to people with my particular set of skills. Jesse greg, youre laughing the hardest. You get to go first. Greg its amazing to see him do that. Im very shiny by the way. I dont know whats going on here. I went for a big run. [laughter] it does im sorry. Its hard to poke holes in cohens territory. Its all holes and no cheese. Its all aired. Calling himself the fixer, what has he fixed . He couldnt fix a parking ticket. Look at history right now. Its like Jesse Pitching A show and humility. It should be called the rat. He looks like a rat. Its a lesson in law fair. Where am i looking . Over here . Once they set their site on the target, a slight regular warfare. They end up acting worse and doing more terrible things and aligning yourself with more despicable rotten people than the actual person that you are targeting. What is worse . Trump taken the lawyer lawyers advice at expense or what the prosecutors are doing, which are using the felon to create a legal experience to imprison the defendant in a weird way. They dont know it, but they are prosecuting Michael Cohen right now instead of trump. This is the clear for palestine moment. The activists that hate jews so much that they align with people who would actively exterminate them. The Media Allying with the obvious criminal and felon to take down trump. Never mind that it will stain everybody involved in this. You couldnt pick better witnesses on behalf of trump. No one can take this guy seriously. Even the guy that draws him is having problems. One last thing. Its amazing how the media called cohens testimony bombshells when he brought up lamia. That was a conversation that recorded between this liar and trump. Shut in the bombshell be that they are talking about a privilege conversation between a lawyer and client . You dont even know if it is true. Why are you reporting on it . They cant even explain the crime. Jesse this is following up the last star witness who was a woman who gets paid to have sex with men on television. Katie thank you, im aware. Jesse she has sex for money on television. Katie i dont need you to hold my hand. If you look at the testimony from today, theres not a lot of new that Michael Cohen is able to produce to the jury, not to mention the reporters talking about this because we can televise it. Coming into today, not a single witness as anything good to say about Michael Cohen. When you start hearing that he is secretly recorded his client who is donald trump, that goes into his pocket of credibility as negative when it comes to someone that is trustworthy. Attorneyclient privilege. Trust your attorney. He secretly records them so he can use it against them later. That is something i think most people say is a red flag for them. I am surprised testified he went to prison for fraud. Stormy daniels who owes donald trump Hundreds Of Thousands of dollars in a defamation case. Michael avenatti Serving Prison given how much the media and the left upheld him as the one guy who could bring down trump. That is what they have been hoping for with Michael Cohen. Greg when do they teach you in law school, harold that you should secretly record your client . Harold i never took that class. It is good to be back around this table. I would agree that a lot has been said. Greg makes probably the most interesting point. I would be interesting to hear the judges reaction. This same set of facts it seems like mr. Cohen was tried on years ago a while back, retrying him with a target of President Trump which i think is interesting. I heard a number of legal scholars today on Different Networks and our own network about the taping of this conversation. There is no doubt that sometimes lawyers believe that they need to have something on record a client may be saying or thinking about or you never take them. You have a witness with you and write it down yourself. It is bizarre but not illegal to tape your client and be able to play it back. I found that really odd. The flip side of it. The evidence that they are trying to establish here with Cohen Whether or not these payments were made or what the motivation where further payments. I didnt see all of it. I saw a lot of the transcript. I saw a lot of what was being written about reporting we have from the courtroom. This is only direct. It seems like Cohen Checksum of the boxes that the prosecutors mightve wanted him to a check as far as establishing motivation. Im not yet seeing where mr. Trump was in on all of this in terms of directing it all. I guess we will have some more of that testimony later. I think i can quote the judge on this pivotal last week. Judge gave us a great definition last week. Is he convincing being cohen . If the jury believes him on 2 france, one that the reason that the president paid this money was because the Campaign Advancement and 2 that he was in on all of it, then the jury is going to have you understand now why the prosecution thinks theres something for the jury to answer. All of this is really not fair for the president at this moment to The Cross Examination hap happens. We shared last week with some of the credibility challenges that have been presented about mr. Cohen. The cross examination will certainly be interesting and incredibly intense. Greg take us through what happened today and tell me what it means. Judge jeanine i dont know. Judge jeanine let me tell you something determinative. Michael cohen is a man with a cause. He is a man without a company. He is a man without a law license. Hes a man without a job. And he is a man who is desp desperate. So he needs a conviction. He needs for people to believe him in order to survive. Because Michael Cohen has destroyed himself and all of this. The only way he goes forward in life is if he helps convict donald trump. The amazing part of this is in order to do that, he will do whatever is necessary. So lets talk about the table being sent to you. The table is set. Michael cohen comes in as the bully, Left Et Cetera the guy who breaks things thats why they need fixing. He comes in as a jerk, selfcentered, a guy who is hated, and a guy who is screaming at people, prone to exaggeration, hostile, and throws a barrage of insults. That is what we have heard on the peoples direct case. What we know about donald trump from people who have worked from him is that it was fantastic working for him. That is a quote. He was a really good boss. He was a multitasker. He was a hard worker. It was great working for him. That is your table. Now, you have got the main witness as Michael Cohen, the hated guy going into this trial. This guy is so corrupt. Hes not just a corrupted felon. He is a convicted lion and a convicted perjurer. That is the essence of incredible. He should have a sign on his forehead that reads liar. Because we have defendants who Go Into Court that we crossexamine the mass balance. You are per se unbelievable when you are convicted of perjury. Lets continue with this. He is incredible as a matter of law. He is a guy who goes in and lies to the bank analyze who he puts on the Bank Statement the purpose of the llc. Says it is a retainer. Trump signed nothing. He is not put a finger on donald trump. Its just like stormy daniels. He hates donald trump. Stormie hates donald trump. At the end of the day, the question is, if theres a conversation between Aloe Eisenberg and Michael Cohen, what does that have to do with donald trump if donald trump did not sign anything or was not part of the conversation . I will tell you another motivation for Michael Cohen to lie and try to destroy donald trump. What bigger insults is it is for donald trump as his fixer as michael called themselves and to not be invited into the white house . Do you know in manhattan with all his friends, he says im going to the white house. Donald is the president. Im probably going to be his counsel. Donald trump knew not to invite him. Donald trump knew not to make them part of the team. Donald trump knew exactly what he was. Finally, this is one on one people talking about. You believe one or the other. They are so wrong on that. This is not a one on one. There is no obligation on the part of a defense to present any kind of statement whatsoever. The burden of proof is on the people beyond a reasonable doubt. The defendant you cannot infer or anything at the defendant chooses not to testify. Finally, who is in the courtroom today . Alvin bragg again squeezing into one of those pews. Because he knows his career is over. He knows his case is a loser. He knows that as weak as this jury looks in terms of the jury that is going to stand up and say we dont believe this, they know theyve got nothing. No one is predicting around donald trump. Finally, the nail on the coffin for Michael Cohen, how dare you taperecord a client . That is an ethical violation. That is an attorneyclient violation. What you recorded is meaningless. Its not even a crime. You are stupid, too. Greg and finally. Judge jeanine that is the end of at. [laughter] jesse up next, donald trump gets a Rock Star Reception and a blue state while sleepy joe gets clobbered in the polls. Heres to Getting Better with age. Heres to beating these two every thursday. Help fuel today with boost high protein, complete nutrition you need. Without the stuff you dont. So, heres to now. Boost. Hey. You seein this . Wait.

Stream directv without a Satellite Dish. Im going to do this thing with my neck, just for a bit. Every day, more dog people, and more vets are deciding its time for a fresh approach to pet food. Theyre quitting the kibble. And kicking the cans. And feeding their dogs dog food thats actually well, food. Developed with vets. Made from real meat and veggies. Portioned for your dog. And delivered right to your door. Its smarter, healthier pet food. Get 50 off your first box at thefarmersdog. Com realfood katie from the trial to the trail, a massive ground up to 100,000 people in deep blue new jersey. Efficiently in the state of new jersey, we are going to win back the state of new jersey. You could take that 10 wears residents in the history of our country and add them out. They havent done the damage to our country that this total has none. Katie trump is clobbering joe biden and 5 keep Battle Ground states. In 2020 including a doubledigit lead in georgia and nevada. The . One of the president s favorite commentators seems to think so. I have to admit. None of this is playing out they are not working in bidens favor. He needs to do something bold and dramatic to seize the initiative. Trumps warhead is an example get her. Everything that we are throwing is spaghetti at a wall. None of it is taking. What we are doing is really, really not working. Katie we have an expert here on the jersey shore. Jesse watters. Now it is jim trump laundry. Jesse johnny was there. Youll see that the night. He says it wasnt 100,000. Its closer to 30,000. That is still a packed venue. That is still i would say 29,500 more than joe has ever had. He did promise that if he was reelected to terminate the windmills on the jersey shore and save the whales. I like the new nickname. Moron joe. If you have one side calling you a dictator and he says you are a moron, that stinks. Hes breaking the bag. He doesnt know where he is when he leaves the stage. Moron joe is going to land, and i can feel it. If you look at these polls, out of reach at these numbers of state. Nevada, the whole digits in arizona. And georgia because of laken riley and fani willis. That is gone. That makes it in the battle. The only needs one. It looks like they are going to come back home. He lost some of that fight about that he had with hillary. You know how persnickety they could be. They went to joe biden. The whites are coming home. Im going to, diversity is really increasing because of the young and the black and the hispanic at 12 Diversity Coalition but its up to 19 diversity, katie. That is all economic opportunity. You can buy a house. There is no way to get off your parents couch. These feelings are entranced. Theres never been a position where a candidate at this point in may has been down every single Battle Ground ever come back. The only candidate to do that was donald trump. Katie judge, it seems like the Trump Campaign want to expand the map and going to new jersey and new york. There is also thoughts that he could win virginia if he plays his cards correctly. Are democrats trying to play catch up . Why are they not nervous about joe biden being down so much . Judge jeanine they are nervous and they know. Its got to be bold and dramatic move to see the initiative or whatever. He has never done anything bold and dramatic for the last 3. 5 years. I dont know what makes him think he can do it now. You know what i think is significant. Trump and biden are essentially tied among 1829yearolds. Tied up. And hispanic voters. But more than mad, i think that this trial if you put the a block in the b blocks together, i think 1 of 3 things are happening. Number one, either people dont care about the trial, or people dont believe that donald trump is guilty. Or people are totally offended by the concept of one party bringing a criminal charged against a man who is a former president running for president. I think that is going to affect american history. I think to all americans, it is somehow offensive to us to be in this situation where you are literally putting a man on trial in a criminal case while he is running for president. It is so untaste where. It is so inappropriate. It stings americans. I think that has a lot to do with it. Joe biden is apparently planning on bringing out all the celebrities. He will bring out julia roberts. None of the celebrities helped Hillary Clinton when she ran against trump. When you get a blue state like new jersey i dont know if he has 30,000 or 100,000 which is what i am reading in the reports. Whatever it is, youve got a guy on trial who is showing up. People are showing up like crazy bigger than we have ever seen. That is what they said for sure. I think in the end off all this, the swing states are going to stay deeply by trump against a biden especially for all the reasons you just said. Katie harold, trumps thinking on rallies and showmanships but democrats are the olympians of voters and plan to be ahead of election day for biden. Is that a good thing for democrats . Harold first of all, these polls you have to take very seriously. This is a snapshot of where that country is and where five or six really important states are. Interesting to see that georgia and nevada, the former President Trump is at 50. If you are running, below 50 against your opponent, it is always a challenge. You see so much, its always telling. We are 5 months out. We will have to see. If i am biden and the team, i take the alarm that others have been sharing. Its time to change some things. What is happening as it is frankly not working. That doesnt mean that the things you are campaigning on right now are not things that americans need and want. Its not working with voters. I would announce Executive Orders at the border and call on republicans to pass the Compromise Bill and say President Trump did the right thing
