Keywords

💡Side Bar

A 'side bar' in a legal context refers to a private discussion that takes place out of earshot of the jury and courtroom spectators, typically between the judge and attorneys. In the video script, it is mentioned that the attorney for President Trump asked to approach for a sidebar discussion, indicating a moment of confidentiality needed to address some matter outside the main proceedings.

💡Attorney-Client Privilege

Attorney-client privilege is a legal principle that protects certain communications between a client and his or her attorney and keeps those communications confidential. The script mentions that the former legal advisor to Michael Cohen was released from his attorney-client confidentiality agreement, allowing him to discuss certain matters publicly that would otherwise be protected.

💡Grand Jury

A grand jury is a legal body that hears evidence of criminal allegations and decides whether there is enough evidence to bring an individual to trial. In the script, it is mentioned that the former legal advisor testified before Alvin Bragg's grand jury, indicating a formal legal proceeding where evidence is presented to determine the basis for charges against an individual.

💡Exculpatory Evidence

Exculpatory evidence refers to information that may exonerate a defendant by demonstrating their innocence or by undermining the prosecution's case. The script discusses how the former legal advisor provided exculpatory material to the grand jury, suggesting evidence that could potentially clear the defendant of the charges.

💡Hearsay

Hearsay is a legal term for secondary evidence, or an out-of-court statement offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted. It is generally not admissible in court. The script mentions hearsay in the context of discussing why certain documents were not put into evidence, with the concern being that they might be considered hearsay and thus inadmissible.

💡Business Records Exception

The business records exception is a rule in the law of evidence that allows records kept in the regular course of business to be admitted as an exception to the hearsay rule. The script refers to this exception, arguing that the documents in question were created and maintained as part of the regular course of business, thus making them admissible in court.

💡Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)

A non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is a legally binding contract that establishes a confidential relationship between parties, typically to protect sensitive information or trade secrets. In the script, Michael Cohen discusses his involvement with an NDA related to Stormy Daniels, indicating an attempt to prevent public disclosure of certain information.

💡Revenge

In the context of the script, 'revenge' refers to the motive behind Michael Cohen's actions, as suggested by the title of his book. It implies that his current behavior and testimony may be driven by a desire for personal retribution against Donald Trump rather than by a pursuit of justice.

💡Trump Derangement Syndrome

Trump Derangement Syndrome is a term used by some to describe an extreme negative reaction to former President Donald Trump, often implying an irrational or obsessive opposition. The script uses this term to suggest that the jury, being from New York City where a majority of voters did not support Trump, may be biased against him.

💡Back Channel

03:40

BUT SUBSEQUENTLY DONALD TRUMP

03:41

03:42

AND YOU HAVE SEEN THE FRUITS OF

03:44

THAT INDICTMENT IN THIS TRIAL,

03:45

WHICH IS A TRIAL ABOUT SOMETHING

03:47

THAT IS NOT A CRIME.

03:48

WHEN I MET WITH MICHAEL COHEN ON

03:51

THE FIRST DAY AT THE REGENCY OH

03:52

HOLE WHEN HE WAS SUICIDAL BY HIS

03:56

OWN ADMISSION, I EXPLAINED TO

03:59

HIM NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS,

04:02

NDAs ARE PERFECTLY LEGAL BECAUSE

04:03

HE KEPT ON SAYING WHY ARE THEY

04:04

TRYING TO PUT ME IN JAIL FOR AN

04:08

NDA?

04:08

I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT'S NOT

04:10

WHY THEY ARE TRYING TO PUT YOU

04:11

IN JAIL.

04:12

THEY THINK YOU HAVE DONE OTHER

04:13

THINGS.

04:13

WHAT ARE THEY?

04:15

HE DENIED HAVING DONE ANYTHING

04:17

ELSE.

04:17

I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING ILLEGAL.

04:19

I'M COOPERATING WITH THE SPECIAL

04:20

COUNSEL, I'M COOPERATING WITH

04:22

CONGRESS.

04:23

BECAUSE HE FORGET TO TELL US

04:26

THAT HE LIED TO CONGRESS.

04:28

BUT HE WAS DESPERATELY SEEKING

04:30

ACCORDING TO HIS OWN WORDS, AN

04:32

ESCAPE ROUTE.

04:33

I WANT YOU GUYS TO TELL ME HOW

04:35

TO GET OUT OF THIS.

04:37

HE SAW THESE ENORMOUS LEGAL

04:38

PROBLEMS COMING HIS WAY.

04:40

THEY WERE SO BAD IN HIS MIND HE

04:41

WAS WILLING TO KILL HIMSELF.

04:43

I KEPT ON GOING BACK AND

04:44

SUGGESTING TO HIM LISTEN,

04:47

MICHAEL, IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING

04:48

TRUTHFUL ON DONALD TRUMP, NOW IS

04:50

THE TIME TO COOPERATE.

04:52

AND HE KEPT ON SAYING OVER AND

04:54

OVER AGAIN TEN TO 20 TIMES, I

04:56

SWEAR TO GOD, BOB, I DON'T HAVE

04:58

ANYTHING ON DONALD TRUMP.

04:59

I EVEN SAID TO HIM MICHAEL,

05:01

THINK ABOUT THIS?

05:02

ISN'T IT EASIER TO COOPERATE

05:04

AGAINST DONALD TRUMP IF YOU HAVE

05:05

TRUTHFUL INFORMATION THAN IT IS

05:07

TO KILL YOURSELF?

05:08

THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS.

05:10

THAT WAS HIS MOMENT IN TIME.

05:12

IF HE HAD SOMETHING TRUTHFUL TO

05:14

SAY I'M WILLING TO COOPERATE.

05:15

HE DIDN'T TAKE THAT.

05:18

HE KEPT ON SAYING I HAVE NOTHING

05:19

ON DONALD TRUMP.

05:20

AND THEN WHEN WE GOT INTO THE

05:22

DISCUSSION OF THE STORMY DANIELS

05:24

NDA HE SAID SPECIFICALLY -- AND

05:27

I CROSS-EXAMINED HIM ON THIS --

05:30

THIS WAS MY IDEA.

05:31

IT WAS HIS IDEA TO TAKE CARE OF

05:33

THE NDA BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN

05:35

CONTACTED BY A LAWYER FOR STORMY

05:36

DANIELS WHO SAID SHE WAS GOING

05:38

TO CLAIM THAT DONALD TRUMP HAD

05:39

SEX WITH HER.

05:40

COHEN SAID I DIDN'T BELIEVE THE

05:44

ALLEGATION BUT NEVERTHELESS IT

05:48

WOULD BE EMBARRASSING TO

05:49

MELANIA.

05:50

I DECIDED TO TAKE CARE OF THIS

05:52

MYSELF.

05:52

NOW, HE TOOK OUT A HOME EQUITY

05:55

LOAN FOR $130,000 AND USED THAT

05:57

AND HE DID TELL US THAT HE GOT

05:59

REPAID LATER.

06:00

WE DIDN'T GET INTO THE DETAILS

06:02

OF THAT BECAUSE THAT WAS NOT

06:03

WHAT WE WERE FOCUSED ON AT THE

06:05

MOMENT.

06:05

WE WERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT

06:07

WHAT WAS MICHAEL COHEN GOING TO

06:09

BE CHARGED WITH BY THE SOUTHERN

06:11

DISTRICT OF NEW YORK.

06:12

THEN AS YOU KNOW, ULTIMATELY HE

06:14

PLED GUILTY TO EIGHT COUNTS,

06:18

SEVEN OF WHICH HAD NOTHING TO DO

06:19

WITH DONALD TRUMP AND AFTER THAT

06:22

ATTEMPTED TO COOPERATE BY

06:23

TELLING FIBS TO THE U.S.

06:25

ATTORNEY'S OFFICE THAT RUDY

06:27

GIULIANI AND I CONSPIRED TO

06:28

OBSTRUCT JUSTICE AND TAMPER WITH

06:30

A WITNESS, THE WITNESS BEING

06:32

MICHAEL COHEN.

06:35

MESSAGES I HAD IT WAS ABSOLUTELY

06:36

CLEAR THERE WAS NO TRUTH

06:38

06:39

SO THE U.S. ATTORNEY SAID TO

06:43

MICHAEL COHEN IN ORDER FOR US TO

06:45

INVESTIGATE THIS YOU HAVE TO

06:47

WAIVE THE ATTORNEY-CLIENT

06:49

PRIVILEGE.

06:49

WHEN THEY PRESENTED ME WITH THE

06:50

WAIVER I GAVE THEM THE DOCUMENTS

06:52

THEY REQUESTED AND WENT DOWN AND

06:54

INTERVIEWED FOR A COUPLE OF

06:56

HOURS WITH TWO F.B.I. AGENTS AND

06:59

TWO ATTORNEYS.

06:59

AT THE END OF THE INTERVIEW

07:02

EVERYBODY WAS LAUGHING BECAUSE I

07:03

SHOWED HOW LUDICROUS THE

07:06

ACCUSATION WAS.

07:07

THEY NEVER USED MICHAEL COHEN

07:10

AGAIN.

07:10

THEY DIDN'T INDICT DONALD TRUMP

07:12

FOR ANYTHING AND THEY DIDN'T USE

07:14

MICHAEL COHEN AND NO CREDIT FOR

07:17

HIS COOPERATION.

07:17

THAT'S A LESSON THE MANHATTAN

07:22

D.A.'S OFFICE SHOULD HAVE

07:22

LEARNED BUT THEY DIDN'T.

07:23

>> Dana: YOU SAID THE GRAND JURY

07:25

DIDN'T GET TO HEAR SOME OF THE

07:27

THINGS YOU THOUGHT THEY SHOULD

07:28

HEAR.

07:28

FOR ALL OF US LISTENING TO YOU

07:30

NOW IT IS LIKE WOW, THE JURY

07:34

HAVE YOU BEEN SUBPOENAED BY THE

07:36

DEFENSE AND CALLED TO TESTIFY IN

07:42

>> I HAVE NOT BEEN SUBPOENAEDED.

07:45

WHETHER I WILL BE CALLED TO

07:47

TESTIFY HASN'T BEEN DECIDED YET.

07:49

IT PROBABLY DEPENDS A LOT ON

07:51

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TODAY IN COURT.

07:52

AND THEN WHAT WOULD HAPPEN ON

07:55

REDIRECT BY THE DISTRICT

07:58

ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

SHOES THAT'S A ANALYSIS I WOULD

08:03

MAKE.

08:03

>> Dana: WOULD YOU CALL YOU TO

08:05

TESTIFY IF YOU WERE IN HIS

08:07

SHOES?

08:08

>> YES, BECAUSE I'M A RELIABLE

08:10

PERSON.

08:10

>> Bill: GO BACK TO THIS MEETING

08:12

WITH COHEN IN 2016.

08:15

IT IS LATE OCTOBER, EARLY

08:16

NOVEMBER.

08:17

THE ELECTION HASN'T HAPPENED

08:18

YET.

08:18

>> NO, NO, NO, NO.

08:20

IT IS APRIL.

08:22

IT'S APRIL.

08:24

>> Bill: WHAT YEAR?

08:27

>> 2018.

08:27

>> Bill: GOTCHA.

08:29

CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW COHEN COULD

08:31

PRO CURE THE NDA ON HIS OWN,

08:34

RIGHT?

08:35

HE SAID HIS WIFE RAN THE HOUSE.

08:37

HE WENT OUT AND GOT A HOME

08:38

EQUITY LOAN, OKAY?

08:41

THEY ARE LIVING IN SOME PRETTY

08:43

FAT APARTMENTS ON PARK AVENUE.

08:45

THEY HAVE THE MONEY ON THE HOME

08:46

EQUITY LOAN IF THEY WANT IT.

08:48

HOW DOES HE SIGN IT WITHOUT HIS

08:51

WIFE KNOWING, WHICH HE HAS

08:52

TESTIFIED TO, AND WHY DOES HE DO

08:55

IT THEN AND IS IT SOLELY FOR THE

08:57

PURPOSE THAT HE THOUGHT DONALD

08:58

TRUMP WOULD GIVE HIM A GOOD JOB

09:00

IN THE ADMINISTRATION IF HE WERE

09:03

TO WIN?

09:05

>> WELL, THAT'S MULTIPLE

09:08

QUESTIONS THERE.

09:09

NUMBER ONE, HE GOT A HONE THAT

09:14

HE LEVERED TO IT FOR 130,000.

09:15

THE REASON HE DID IT THAT WAY,

09:17

HE TOLD US -- I HAVEN'T SEEN THE

09:20

PAPERWORK.

09:20

HE TOLD US HE DIDN'T WANT

09:22

MELANIA TO KNOW AND DIDN'T WANT

09:24

HIS OWN WIFE TO KNOW.

09:25

HE SAID HIS WIFE HANDLES THE

09:27

FAMILY FINANCES AND IF HE TOOK

09:29

ANY MONEY OUT OF ANY OF HIS

09:31

ACCOUNTS, SHE WOULD KNOW IT

09:31

RIGHT AWAY AND ACCORDING TO HIM

09:34

SHE WOULD ASK HIM 100 QUESTIONS

09:35

THAT HE DIDN'T WANT TO ANSWER.

09:37

THAT'S HIS STATEMENT.

09:38

I HAVEN'T SEEN THE PAPERWORK FOR

09:40

THIS LOAN SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT

09:42

HE REPRESENTED TO THE BANK.

09:44

CHANCES ARE THAT HE DIDN'T TELL

09:46

THE TRUTH ON THAT APPLICATION.

09:47

HE DIDN'T SAY THIS IS GOING TO

09:49

BE MONEY TO TAKE CARE OF A

09:52

NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT.

09:52

BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT.

09:54

I'M JUST GUESSING.

09:56

WHAT WAS YOUR OTHER QUESTION?

09:58

>> Bill: I HAD A FEW.

10:02

CAN I ASK YOU ANOTHER ONE?

10:04

WHY WAS ALLEN WEISSELBERG NOT

10:06

BEEN A WITNESS IN THIS CASE TO

10:09

DATE?

10:09

THE LONG-TIME ACCOUNTANT, RAN

10:11

THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION FOR MORE

10:13

THAN 40 YEARS.

10:14

>> WELL, I THINK IF YOU LISTEN

10:15

TO ANDY McCARTHY, WHO YOU JUST

10:17

HAD ON.

10:18

HE GAVE A VERY GOOD ANALYSIS.

10:20

AND THAT IS WE ARE PRESUMING

10:23

THAT ALLEN WEISSELBERG DOES NOT

10:25

HAVE ANY INFORMATION THAT WOULD

10:28

BE HELPFUL TO THE DISTRICT

10:29

ATTORNEY.

10:30

IF THEY THOUGHT HE HAD HELPFUL

10:32

INFORMATION THEY WOULD BRING HIM

10:33

FROM RYKER'S ISLAND TO THE

10:35

COURTHOUSE AND HAVE HIM TESTIFY.

10:37

THE FACT THEY HAVEN'T DONE THAT

10:39

LEADS ONE TO REASONABLY CONCLUDE

10:41

THAT MAYBE WEISSELBERG DOESN'T

10:43

HAVE INFORMATION THAT HELPS HIM,

10:46

RATHER IT HELPS DONALD TRUMP.

10:47

I THINK ANDY McCARTHY IS 100%

10:49

CORRECT ON THAT.

10:50

>> Dana: A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS

10:52

IF YOU DON'T MIND.

10:53

HERE IS ONE.

10:54

IF COHEN DID ALL OF THIS ON HIS

10:57

OWN BUT THE JURY SEES THAT

10:59

DONALD TRUMP SIGNED THE CHECKS,

11:01

DOES THAT KIND OF EVIDENCE GO TO

11:04

THE PROSECUTION'S POINT?

11:06

>> I DON'T THINK SO.

11:09

LISTEN, THIS IS A PROSECUTION

11:11

FOR A FALSE STATEMENT IN A

11:13

BUSINESS RECORD.

11:16

FRANKLY, NONE OF THIS TAWDRY

11:19

STUFF SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALLOWED

11:21

IN.

11:21

IT WILL GET REVERSED IF THERE IS

11:24

A CONVICTION BUT AFTER THE

11:26

ELECTION PROBABLY.

11:26

THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT.

11:28

>> Dana: OKAY.

11:29

>> THE FACT THAT DONALD TRUMP

11:30

SIGNS THE CHECKS DOESN'T MEAN

11:32

ANYTHING.

11:33

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY CHECKS HE

11:34

SITS THERE AND SIGNS WHILE HE IS

11:35

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES?

11:36

HE MIGHT BE A LITTLE BUSY ON

11:39

SOMETHING ELSE.

11:39

>> Dana: DO YOU KNOW JUDGE

11:42

MERCHAN?

11:43

>> NO, NOT AT ALL.

11:44

NEVER MET HIM.

11:46

>> Dana: YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE

11:48

WITH NEW YORK JURIES.

11:51

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS

11:52

PARTICULAR JURY AND WHAT THEY

11:53

MIGHT BE THINKING ABOUT THIS

11:54

CASE AS THEY GET READY FOR JURY

11:58

INSTRUCTIONS FAIRLY SOON?

12:00

>> WELL, IT'S NEW YORK CITY.

12:02

SO I UNDERSTAND THAT 87% OF THE

12:06

VOTERS VOTED NOT FOR DONALD

12:07

TRUMP IN THE LAST ELECTION.

12:08

SO YOU HAVE TO ASSUME THAT THERE

12:10

IS TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME

12:12

OUT THERE AND THAT THIS JURY

12:14

WILL BE REFLECTIVE OF THAT.

12:16

THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE ON THIS

12:21

JURY WHO WILL VOTE TO CONVICT

12:24

HIM WHETHER OR NOT THE EVIDENCE.

12:27

YOU NEED ONE OR TWO REASONABLE

12:28

PEOPLE TO HANG THE JURY.

12:29

IF I WAS BETTING ON THIS, I

12:31

WOULD BET THAT'S PROBABLY GOING

12:34

TO BE THE RESULT.

12:34

THEY MAY ACTUALLY JUST GET SO

12:38

DISGUSTED AND ACQUIT HIM.

12:39

IT'S HARD TO DO THAT WHEN 87% OF

12:43

THE PEOPLE VOTE FOR THE OTHER

12:44

GUY.

12:45

GO AHEAD.

12:46

>> Bill: WE'RE TOLD RIGHT NOW

12:48

THE SIDE BAR CONTINUES.

12:49

SO IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 15

12:51

MINUTES.

12:51

MAYBE THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT YOU

12:53

AS A WITNESS.

12:54

YOU ARE A FRIEND OF RUDY

12:57

GIULIANI AND HOW YOU CAME INTO

12:59

THIS ORBIT BY WAY OF NEW YORK

13:00

AND SOUTHERN DISTRICT BASED ON

13:02

YOUR RESUME.

13:03

THIS IS ONE OF YOUR EMAILS TO

13:06

MICHAEL COHEN.

13:07

THIS WAS APRIL OF 2018.

13:09

WE CAN PUT IT ON SCREEN.

13:13

GIULIANI ASKED ME TO TELL YOU HE

13:15

KNOWS HOW TOUGH IT IS ON YOU AND

13:17

YOUR FAMILY AND MAKE SURE TO

13:19

TELL THE PRESIDENT.

13:20

THANK YOU FOR OPENING THE BACK

13:21

CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION AND

13:23

ASKED ME TO KEEP IN TOUCH.

13:24

WHY WAS IT NECESSARY FOR YOU TO

13:27

BE A BACK CHANNEL AT THAT TIME?

13:30

>> IT WASN'T AND THAT PHRASE WAS

13:31

NOT MINE.

13:32

THAT WAS A WORD THAT RUDY USED.

13:37

PROBABLY AN UNFORTUNATE TERM.

13:39

THERE WAS NOTHING SNEAKY ABOUT

13:41

THIS.

13:41

I WAS REPRESENTING COHEN.

13:42

BY THE WAY, THAT FIRST MEETING

13:46

AT THE REGENCY MICHAEL COHEN

13:47

LIED TO THE JURY ALREADY ABOUT

13:48

THAT.

13:48

HE SAYS THAT RUDY GIULIANI AND I

13:51

WERE CONSPIRING ON EVEN ON THAT

13:53

DAY.

13:53

RUDY WASN'T EVEN REPRESENTING

13:55

DONALD TRUMP UNTIL A COUPLE OF

13:56

DAYS LATER.

13:57

YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE IS AN

14:00

EMAIL FROM ME INFORMING MICHAEL

14:03

COHEN DID YOU SEE THE REPORT IN

14:05

THE NEWSPAPER RUDY WILL NOW

14:06

REPRESENT TRUMP.

14:07

THAT'S GOOD FOR YOU, I KNOW RUDY

14:10

AND RUDY KNOWS ME.

14:11

THE REASON WHY IT'S GOOD WHEN

14:12

YOU ARE TALKING TO A LAWYER

14:14

REPRESENTING SOMEBODY ELSE, IF

14:16

YOU'VE KNOWN THAT LAWYER FOR 40,

14:17

50 YEARS AND YOU KNOW THAT THE

14:19

PERSON IS TRUSTWORTHY, IT MAKES

14:21

THINGS A LOT EASIER.

14:22

IT'S THAT SIMPLE.

14:24

AND WHAT COHEN DID -- GO AHEAD.

14:27

>> Bill: YOU SAID HE TOLD YOU

14:29

TEN TIMES, 12 TIMES I DON'T HAVE

14:32

ANYTHING ON DONALD TRUMP.

14:33

WHY WOULD -- SO HIS STORY IS

14:35

ENTIRELY DIFFERENT NOW.

14:36

HE HAS DONE A 180.

14:40

SO MAYBE THE JURORS BELIEVE HIM

14:42

TODAY AND THEY WOULD NOT BELIEVE

14:44

SOMETHING FROM SIX YEARS AGO,

14:48

ROBERT.

14:50

>> THE REST OF THE PROOF DOESN'T

14:52

SUPPORT MICHAEL COHEN.

14:53

BY THE WAY, ONE THING YOU ARE

14:55

NOT REPORTING YET IS THAT

14:57

BESIDES MAKING THAT STATEMENT I

14:58

SWEAR TO GOD I DON'T HAVE

15:01

ANYTHING ON DONALD TRUMP, HE

15:03

ALSO SAID MORE TIMES THAN THAT

15:06

ANSWER, GUYS, I WANT YOU TO

15:09

UNDERSTAND, I WILL DO WHATEVER

15:10

THE F I HAVE TO DO.

15:12

I WILL NEVER SPEND A DAY IN JAIL

15:14

AND THEN HE WOULD SLAM HIS HAND

15:16

ON THE CONFERENCE ROOM TABLE.

15:18

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN TO YOU?

15:20

THAT MEANS THIS GUY IS SAYING I

15:22

WILL LIE, CHEAT, STEAL, DO

15:24

WHATEVER I HAVE TO DO, I'M NOT

15:25

GOING TO JAIL.

15:26

HE DID GO TO JAIL.

15:28

AND WHO DO YOU THINK HE BLAMES

15:30

FOR THAT?

15:32

AND WHY DO YOU THINK HE NAMES

15:34

HIS MOST RECENT BOOK REVENGE?

15:36

QUITE FRANKLY, HE IS USING THIS

15:39

TO MONETIZE HIMSELF BECAUSE THIS

15:40

IS THE ONLY WAY THIS GUY CAN

15:42

MAKE MONEY RIGHT NOW, SELLING

15:44

BOOKS AND T-SHIRTS AND TRINKETS

15:46

AND BEING THE ULTIMATE

15:48

ANTI-TRUMPER.

15:49

AND BECAUSE HE WAS DOING THAT ON

15:51

TV, AND I SAW THAT, I SAID I

15:53

CAN'T SIT BY AND LET THIS GUY

15:56

TELL THE GRAND JURY, TELL THE

15:58

JURORS NOW THIS FALSE STORY WHEN

16:00

HE TOLD US THE OPPOSITE STORY AT

16:03

A MOMENT WHEN HE WAS DESPERATELY

16:05

SEEKING A WAY OUT AND WAS

16:07

WILLING TO KILL HIMSELF.

16:08

AND CERTAINLY COOPERATING WITH

16:10

TRUTHFUL INFORMATION IS A LOT

16:12

EASIER.

16:13

BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY TRUTHFUL

16:15

INFORMATION.

16:15

>> Dana: THAT LEADS ME TO A

16:17

QUESTION I WAS THINKING ABOUT

16:18

ASKING YOU.

16:18

YOU HAVE HAD TIME WITH MICHAEL

16:20

COHEN, I HAVE NOT.

16:22

I'M WONDERING ABOUT HOW YOU

16:23

THINK HIS STATE OF MIND IS NOW,

16:25

BECAUSE AS YOU SAID HE WAS

16:27

SUICIDAL WHEN HE FIRST MET YOU.

16:29

HE DID GO TO JAIL.

16:30

NOW WRITTEN A BOOK CALLED

16:32

REVENGE AND SAID TO THE

16:33

PROSECUTION HE DOES WANT TRUMP

16:34

TO BE CONVICTED.

16:36

AND HE IS GETTING SOME STRANGE

16:39

NEW RESPECT FROM LIBERAL MEDIA

16:41

AND COMMENTATORS, EVEN ACTRESSES

16:46

AND COMEDIANS ON THE LEFT WING

16:48

PERSPECTIVE.

16:49

I WONDER HOW HE THINKS ABOUT

16:50

THAT?

16:51

DOES HE RESPOND TO THAT KIND OF

16:55

FLATTERY?

16:55

ALSO THE WAY HE CAN CONTINUE TO

16:58

MAKE MONEY TO SUPPORT HIS

16:59

FAMILY.

17:00

>> THE ANSWER IS BOTH.

17:02

HE DOES RESPOND TO THE FLATTERY.

17:04

HE IS LOOKING TO MAKE MONEY.

17:05

AND HE HAS BEEN MAKING MONEY.

17:07

HE HAS A PODCAST APPARENTLY

17:13

CALLED IT'S LATIN THAT MEANS

17:17

THROUGH MY FAULT.

17:18

IT'S THROUGH HIS FAULT WE'RE ALL

17:21

TALKING ABOUT THIS SUBJECT.

17:22

>> Bill: THE SIDE BAR IS OVER.

17:24

LASTED 20 MINUTES.

17:25

THE JUDGE SAID I APOLOGIZE FOR

17:27

THE WHISPERING.

17:28

THE JURY IS NOW BEING BROUGHT

17:29

INTO THE COURTROOM AND SO IS

17:31

MICHAEL COHEN.

17:32

SO WE'LL SEE WHAT GETS UNDERWAY

17:36

MOMENTARILY.

17:38

FINAL QUESTION.

17:40

DO YOU THINK MICHAEL COHEN WAS

17:43

TELLING THE TRUTH IN 2018?

17:45

MAYBE HE WAS LYING SIX YEARS

17:49

AGO.

17:49

MAYBE HE HAS FLIPPED AGAIN.

17:50

>> THAT'S A POSSIBILITY.

17:52

HOWEVER.

17:53

>> I WAS IN THE COURTROOM THE

17:55

OTHER DAY AND IT WAS A

17:58

WELL-REHEARSED SHOW BETWEEN THE

17:59

PROSECUTOR AND MICHAEL COHEN, Q

18:02

AND A, Q AND A, FLIP THE PAGE.

18:05

HE COULD ALMOST ANTICIPATE THE

18:07

QUESTION.

18:07

HE WAS VERY WELL-REHEARSED.

18:10

IF YOU ARE SAYING HE IS LYING

18:11

NOW, WHO IS TO SAY HE WASN'T

18:14

LYING THEN WHEN YOU FIRST CAME

18:15

ACROSS HIM?

18:16

>> I WILL TELL YOU WHY I BELIEVE

18:18

THAT WHAT HE TOLD US IN 2018 WAS

18:21

THE TRUTH.

18:22

NUMBER ONE, AS I SAID HE WAS

18:24

SUICIDE ALL DESPERATELY LOOKING

18:26

FOR A WAY OUT.

18:27

THE WAY OUT WAS CLEAR, TO

18:30

COOPERATE AGAINST DONALD TRUMP

18:30

IF HE HAD TRUTHFUL INFORMATION.

18:32

HE DIDN'T TAKE THAT WAY OUT.

18:33

ALL DAY LONG HE SAID I DON'T

18:36

HAVE ANYTHING.

18:37

BUT I WILL DO WHATEVER THE F I

18:39

HAVE TO DO, I WILL NEVER SPEND A

18:41

DAY IN JAIL.

18:43

HERE IS THE OTHER THING.

18:45

DONALD TRUMP, WHEN HE WENT TO

18:47

WASHINGTON, D.C., WHEN HE WAS

18:49

ELECTED, HE TOOK THE WHOLE TRUMP

18:51

INNER CIRCLE TO WASHINGTON WITH

18:53

ONE EXCEPTION, MICHAEL COHEN.

18:55

THEY LEFT HIM BACK IN NEW YORK.

18:57

MICHAEL COHEN WAS VERY UNHAPPY

18:59

ABOUT THAT.

18:59

AS I TESTIFIED YESTERDAY, DURING

19:01

ONE OF MY CONVERSATIONS WITH

19:03

MICHAEL COHEN WHEN I ASKED HIM

19:05

MICHAEL, WHAT DID YOU THINK YOU

19:06

WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU DID GO TO

19:08

WASHINGTON, D.C.?

19:09

HE SAID I THOUGHT I COULD BE

19:12

ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED

19:13

STATES OR AT LEAST CHIEF OF

19:15

STAFF TO THE PRESIDENT.

19:16

NOW, AS LUDICROUS AS THAT

19:18

SOUNDS, I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY

19:20

ONE THAT HE HAD SAID THAT TO

19:22

UNTIL I NOTICED THAT DURING

19:24

CROSS EXAMINATION OF I THINK IT

19:27

WAS STORMY DANIELS LAWYER COHEN

19:29

ACTUALLY SAID THAT TO HIM.

19:31

YOUR ADVERSARY AND YOU ARE

19:34

NEGOTIATING WITH THIS GUY FOR AN

19:36

NDA AND TELLING HIM HOW ANNOYED

19:40

YOU ARE WHERE DONALD TRUMP

19:42

DIDN'T BRING YOU TO WASHINGTON

19:44

WITH ATTORNEY GENERAL OR CHIEF

19:46

OF STAFF?

19:47

HE WENT TO JAIL AND HE IS LEFT

19:49

ALONE IN NEW YORK.

19:50

I THINK THAT'S HIS MOTIVATION

19:52

NOW.

19:52

>> Dana: ROBERT COSTELLO, THANK

19:54

YOU SO MUCH FOR SPENDING THIS

19:56

TIME WITH US.

19:57

VERY VALUABLE AND INSIGHTFUL.

19:59

>> Bill: MAYBE WE'LL SEE YOU

20:02

AGAIN.

20:03

>> Dana: IT SOUNDS LIKE WE

20:07

MIGHT.

20:07

>> Bill: THERE ARE 11

20:10

REPUBLICANS IN THE HOUSE TODAY.

20:12

WHITE SHIRT, RED TIE TODAY.

20:13

SO HE IS SPORTING THE RED, WHITE

20:15

AND BLUE AS WELL.

20:16

DONALD TRUMP IS THERE NOW WITH

20:17

THE JURY AND MICHAEL COHEN IS ON

20:19

THE STAND AND WE'LL GET OUR

20:21

FIRST
