    Yes the reason why is because they cut the taxes for the rich, pure and simple. Just look at tRump promises major tax breaks for the oil industry for a 1.5 billion contribution. Yes the most important point. ROI is always the most important factor for a business person Return On Investment. If they can’t get their money back then it is a bad investment and they should not be in business.

    I love that Lawrence is so good at observing the details, and then seemingly realizes, you know what, folks are going to have gripping questions at this point. And he delivered right on. Is Todd Blanche's questions evidence? Thankfully, no. The rest of the day I listened to the pundits, lawyers, and analysts and none said anything. However, most, almost unanimously, and sadly ominously, pointed out that what Blanche may begin to succeed at is to sow the kernel of doubt in the minds of the jurors. And that, my esteemed host, is what could blow down the house. What words of wisdom can you offer there?

    I think (hope) the jury is smart enough to know that podcasts are made to attract clicks and entertain - and it is not unusual for podcast hosts to assume an exaggerated persona. This likely explains at least some of the difference between the Michael Cohen they see in court and who they heard on the tape.

    A defense attorney will have their moments in trying to undermine the testimony of a witness. But, the totality of the evidence is what jurors look to- not a gotcha moment, with testimony that can be dealt with on redirect (if prosecutors choose). Also, not to underestimate the judgment of jurors about the demeanor of (in this instance) Todd Blanche. Yelling out at that he lied is not only not evidence, but ineffective. The witness is offering testimony to the best of his recollection.

    The comments below demonstrate very clearly why not televising the trial is important in this country. Too many observers can't make head or tail of the legal process and don't have a command of English that is helpful in understanding what is being said. Every person who hates dumptruck sees confirmation of their views. Every person who is already on their knees worshiping dumptruck sees their views reinforced. Television coverage would not improve any of that.

He’s been having some trouble with his blood pressure and trying to stay away from the news. He said he’s actually sick of having to talk about trump because that’s all anybody wants to talk about. And if Ben Meisalas from Meidas Touch is friends with him, he must be a good person.

    If diminished capacity were established for even one case, current dementia would not apply to a past offense, when Trump was clearly in better command of his faculties. An obvious strategy-- apparently the sole, forelorn hope of Blanche-- is a hung jury. Blanche believes if he can shout loudly enough, perhaps one juror will believe him.
