Something happening in his branch that could affect him and i suspect there might have been a courtesy call. but can he turn around and build this into a case to fire mueller? it's going to be very tough because as i said earlier i think this is a lot of the southern district's own doing and how this was handled. >> josh, does a lot of this come back to the president's firing of fbi director comey last may? again, the president kind of revisited that firing again today, going on about how he did the right thing. >> he did, and there was obviously a lot in that statement today. i think the one ...

Those records that were seized, those documents that don't relate to him performing services as an attorney for donald trump and we know he often served as his business adviser. he wasn't always acting as donald trump's attorney. there won't be any confidentiality, there won't be attorney/client with respect to any of those documents. i think michael cohen and donald trump, i can't emphasize enough how much they have made their own beds in this situation and been their worst enemies in terms of the rhetoric that they've spewed throughout this entire case with stormy daniels. >> i want you to h...

Purposes of wiring this money that he was not truthful and honest with the bank as to the purpose of those accounts and what they were designed to be used for. we've never stated that publicly. i'm going to state it publicly tonight. that could be one basis for the raids. but again, i think this is a very, very serious matter. there's a strong likelihood in my opinion that the u.s. attorney's office or the special counsel will be able to pierce the attorney-client privilege between michael cohen and mr. trump based on a crime fraud exception. and again, i can't overstate the seriousness of thi...
