Thank you Kristy Greenberg for saying "Dirty Old Man." There's no better way to describe Trump in that hotel room. Also, to Jonathan Alter: thank you for the inside gossip on Susan Necheles. She is a figure of interest in this case almost as much as Daniels.

All Cohen has to say is, "I lied on behalf of Trump, I'm not lying now."

So interesting about Susan Necheles' argument with Trump. I was thinking last week it's almost like she wants to see him go down so she can just be free of him and move on. I'm with Harry on Michael Cohen. Cohen has it in him to resist taking the bait, but yeah really a bad move to post the Trump behind bars T shirt, but understandable. He has PTSD and self regulation is difficult when under the amount of pressure he's under.

What if he gets sick before the presidential nominating convention and can't run?

I find it amazing that people talk about lawyers as if they are automatically better, or even smarter people. Lawyers know the law. Some are better and some are worse about that knowledge set. It is a little like the apocryphal story of British intelligence in the Second World War: When recruiting from universities, a Don was asked by a colleague why he was recruited. He answered. "I really don't know. Apart from a very particular period of early Christian history in the United Kingdom, I don't really know much of anything". Lawyers, like any demographic have that wide swath of humanity... No disrespect to your wonderful panel.

Everybody tut-tutting about Michael Cohen having an axe to grind and explicitly hating Trump seems to have completely forgotten that he’s got excellent reasons. I don’t think *anyone* who’d been thrown under buses and into jails the way he has, who has been the subject of power abuse and venom from Trump and magaworld wouldn’t also have a whole lot of resentment for the person responsible. He’s *far* more relatable than people like Hicks and Westerhout, who still like and admire Trump.

... Agree. Those who know him know that Cohen has been in testimony prep for nearly a year.

I've listened to this whole thing (almost), and have been educated to the 'nth degree regarding the pros and cons of Stormy's testimony, as well as the much-anticipated Cohen testimony. I think Trump is guilty as sin, but I see how bumpy the road has been getting there.

Great show!

This was a good group, I hope to hear them together again some day

Was the defence hoping Stormy would go to far and get a miss trial or thrown out on apeal

What a ride

Thanks

History turns on human weaknesses.

Please guys don’t forget Michael Cohen has the recordings that he make that make him more credible !!

Those prosecutors are smarter than Kristy and Danny. The prosecutors elected this testimony because DUH these r the questions that might have been asked by the Defense they want to get them out there . Not TMI , The Defense didnt object because they thought she might hang herself . Wow u need me on one of these shows . I follow this as much as you all do maybe even more . A retiree here .

Reading “Whitehouse Inc” and it is discouraging and despairing the stuff the Trump family got away with before, during and after 2016. Cohen should never run for Congress.

Kristy, To be clear Cohen is no longer a lawyer. He is not under gag orders and the jury is not supposed to watching need about the risk

Trump called Susan Necheles then, he must be calling her more colourful insults now.

@@WhyTheHorsefaceThanks, I thought they could wrangle or manipulate an appeal even with that issue. Appreciate your note.

how about the reason they didn't object is because it's their strategy to get a mistrial - they are cognizant of their actions - how many mistrials will be requested? We'll see.

If you don't object you lose your right to bring it up on Appeal. Lmao like 6 SC Judges give a toss about that. You guys are still acting like the law matters to these people.

The defense is purposefully botching the case to create an ineffective counsel appeal

Doesn’t Stormy have a child to raise? We all need money for that.

The appeal they’re planning is all about bad faith representation. He plans to blame the lawyers. It’s right there in front of us.

34:23 Subpoenaed witness met w/the defence team so they could “get their story straight” between her 2 days of testimony? That’s not a problem?

Maybe its their subtle lawyer way of screwing their "troublesome, insulting" client.

Hmmm,, Kristy Greenberg, what us the title of her book ?

Ms greenberg, really, trashing someone that admitted his faults for work trump like all protect them? And that Michael takes all the rap ostrized by most of all the us, well i admire cohen ❤

If his attorneys are truly talented (not sure this is true) is it possible they have just given up on their client or that some clients are guilty?

Hope Jen doesn't avoid your questions saying she'll "Psircle Back"....

Will he plead incompetent counsel? I hope not!

Re. Stormy testimony being an issue on appeal: the defense didn't object as non responsive nor did they object as prejudicial. Good luck with the appeal.

Kristy makes a good point about Stormy and the money being the motivating factor. A couple of things Stormy testified to made me question her credibility: (1) The threat in the parking lot [There was no corroboration of that event which conveniently backed up her ‘fear for my family’ motivation], (2) That the sex was no coerced when it so obviously was by her own account. A woman as quick with a quip could have cut a man like Trump down to size. Everything she testified to about her encounter spoke to taking the easiest way to exit the situation. She didn’t say that she WANTED to sex, she wanted to get out of the room [and maintain the possibility of future contact and appearance on The Apprentice]. Were I in the jury room, these are both points I would make. Bottom Line: The purpose of Stormy’s testimony is that she and Trump had sex that night; no one should have doubts about that fact. Shouldn’t have taken all day to prove it, though. My thoughts. Edit: It just seemed to me that her account was practiced, and benefited from legal advice, as in, “I felt there was an imbalance of power in the room.” Where does a description like that come from? Why did she use it? Her testimony answered some questions, but opened up far more to my skeptical mind.

I had to look to see if you were a man or a woman. I assume man based on the Jeremiah? I hope the women on the jury are able to explain some of this to the men in the jury. I understand that it wouldn’t make sense to a man, but I would think most women (especially older women)- understand this completely. It was mentioned in the testimony that she was prepped- and the judge tells the jury that is normal. So it shouldn’t be used against her. She testified to that. And remember- Stormy of today is not the same as a 26 year old Stormy. I hope the prosecution points that out.

Two points: you apparently are unaware of Stormy Daniels's extreme intelligence and quick wittedness. She was on her way to veterinary school and had the highest grade point avg in her entire state, but her mother's neglect forced her out on her own at age 17. How many young girls survive that to rise from sex worker to shot caller? Also do NOT forget that each and every witness is not only prepped as extensively as possible before they take the stand, Daniels has had to repeat this account over and over and over again for nearly 20 YEARS! honey, I'd say you'd have your story down pat too.

None of that wall of text is really relevant. Did sex occur? Yes. Did they pay to cover it up? Yes. Did they commit crimes in the process? Yes. Did Trump falsify business records in furtherance of those crimes? I'd say yes, but that is the question before the jury.

@@wanderlustworldschooling543 I imagine women would hear her testimony differently. Allowance should also be made for the pressure-packed atmosphere in which she was giving her testimony. I don’t discount the value of the details she recounted, even the yuckiness of some of it [“you remind me of my daughter”], but I still feel her witness would have been stronger if she had confined herself to a more relevant accounting of the facts and not strayed into interpretive remarks like ‘an imbalance of power’ where, ‘he was bigger than me and there was a guard at the door’ would have sufficed. Similarly, I felt she was a bit defensive and trying to give herself cover with her claim that the sex was not in any way forced, that it was driven by her insecurities, etc. Now, you’re very correct when you claim that women understand more of what was going on in that encounter, and what Stormy might have been feeling; but my point is that it is not up to Stormy to excuse Donald Trump’s actions by blaming herself. Donald, in my view (as a man) was using his power as a possible aid to her career and basically forcing her to choose between a possibly violent encounter if she resisted, or a brief sexual encounter if she submitted. In I other words, she was not a cheerful sleazebag as David Pecker, she was trying to preserve a bit of her dignity in an awful circumstance. She definitely held her own, and she ‘got the job done,’ but I still don’t completely trust her. Maybe most women would, but I don’t. I do, however, believe they had sex that night; so Trump is lying, that’s the main point. But if E. Jean Carroll can sue for defamation, I don’t see why Stormy can’t.

@@BJones-yw4dd I don’t deny that Stormy is smart or that she has incredible survival skills. I also don’t deny that ‘she told her story.’ I’m saying that by ‘telling her story’ she missed the mark a bit and muddied the waters. She was on the witness stand to bear witness to the actions of Donald J. Trump on the evening in question, not to justify or defend her own actions or offer opinions on what she thought of Trump’s actions (or lack of same).

Harry, To argue is the reason lawyers exist.

Wait- what happened to the five words or less??!

Motivated by $130,00. Nope. You take it, sign to save yourself from disappearing or whatever. It was an agreement Trump would not harrass her. Not planned.

fRump's biggest problem is he always tosses his friends under buses. It is about time one found him.

DJT is his own worst ENEMY!!!! Ultimately he will lose this case and ultimately he will go to jail where he belongs!!!!!!!!!!! You can't save a FOOL no matter how hard you try. A FOOL LISTENS TO NO ONE!!!!!!!!!! Sound Familiar.

Who's in this "high stakes credibility battle?" ... surely, not trump!! Harry did you get your bell rung ? Is there some kinda cognitive impairment?

Motivated by money? What do you think - in addition to so much more - motivates Trump? Really need to read transcript to verify those claims?

Not surprisingly, these lawyers are looking at these events through the lens of the law. I'm sorry, but there is another dimension of this situation that is quite different. Trump's strategy is directed toward the court of public opinion, not the court of law. And he may well be winning in that court. All he has to do is to convince one juror that the case is not fair to get jury nullification, an acquittal. I'm sorry, but that's my prediction. BTW I once won a $5 bet with a lawyer with a similar case. Mayor Marion Barry had been caught on video tape smoking crack. The lawyer couldn't see how a conviction could be avoided. The jury refused to convict.

Susan Necheles: 100x worse than Hamilton Burger!

Forget about 4.5 alcohol beers which besides the taste anyone can smell miles away try white claw hard seltzers 8% alocohol u dont need an 18 pack one is enough

Why no constant objections by the defense? They are as discusted and traumatized by Trump as the rest of us. How rigerously do you defend Jeffrey Epstine?

In defending Daniels' credibility with the jury, the prosecution is trashing Trump's. Ultimately, they have to decide whether to trust Trump or all the other witnesses and evidence.

Only a true cult member can listen through the testimony during this trial and think that Trump is not guilty. Hopefully one has not made it into the jury.

What you really should be worried about is the number of people willing to prop Trump up, and ignore the obvious mental deterioration of this career criminal.

I wonder why a supposed billionaire doesn’t have $500,000 in cash or even $130,000 to pay off Stormy and Karen. Why risk a check? Is that Trump’s idea of ‘micromanaging’ ? Pretty dull if you ask me.

Grammar matters and adds to one's credibility...otherwise you'll be tagged as part of the MAGA whiners and ignored. In proper English, the formulation is "democratic congressman" . It's only "Democrat" when used as a noun, otherwise it's an adjective with "-ic", as in: "My best friend is a Democrat. He's proud to be fighting for democratic values and norms." And why do you think the sponsor's democratic political leanings are a surprise for a pro-democracy podcast? Do you complain to FOX that all it's favorite guests are MAGA Republicans? IMHO, we have far more serious things to worry about.
