that was about susan mcdougal and the national enquirer. karen mcdougal. it was leading up to stormy daniels. >> it was. one of the things i thought was interesting about playing the phone call is that's not the first time i heard it. we heard a because a forensic specialist and the da office played it to authenticated. the trump team didn't want to stipulate for basically agree, the some of the things that are pro forma. phone records, text messages. phone recordings or what they say they are. the jury got to hear the phone recording not once but three times. the first time through the forensic specialist. today, second time, all the way through. then, on direct examination by susan hoffinger, she played snippets and asked michael cohen to annotate. what did you mean by this and this and this? that's a clear reference to david pecker. someone could be run over a truck. that's what happens if david -- david pecker is no longer in control of the lock cabinet or the karen mcdougal agreement? that was a reference to the locked cabinet and karen mcdougal. what

[laughter] and i think for the most part, i think for the most parts that is true. and i also would agree with you, howie, be one of those liberals on the left that thinks this is the weakest of four cases and certainly not wanting this to go forward. but to your point, robby, it really irritates me that the everybody thinks we democrats have so much control over the criminal justice system and that we would misuse that power specifically, you know, to try to push an opponent off. joe biden beat donald trump before very, very tight the race, i believe he can do it again. we
