i mean, he was a prosecution witness, but he said he had done the nda's, so-called catch and grab schemes, buy a story that somebody didn't want to get out. he did it for around schwarzenegger, did it for tiger woods. it may be unseemly, but it's not illegal, right? >> absolutely, it's not illegal. and based upon the prosecutor's case, sits determining whether they're trying to win on a criminal conviction or trying to get sordid details out. we don't know precisely what they're accusing donald trump of doing criminally. and they have to show that he falsified records in order to further some other crime. to this day that has not been affirmatively disclosed by the prosecution and there are many convoluted theories out there that don't quite add up. david: yeah, but tom, i was talking to annie mccarthy earlier. maybe there are a couple of lawyers on the jury, but the others don't know if it's legal or not. and the judge isn't telling them. isn't it the role of the judge to explain when the prosecution or an attorney goes off the rail suggesting something is illegal when it's not? >> yeah,

it's not because he's never done anything untoward's that he needs someone to sign an nda for. all of those things are baked into who he is back in 2015 when people and made the decision the first time. most people aren't changing their minds because you are relitigating something that happened in that long ago and trying to find a place where he could have maybe been illegal and maybe you can convince a jury from manhattan to believe that. if we look at their presidential politics of it, i don't think it hurts him at all. the problem is, does it get a hung jury? does he have to go back for another six weeks? that he can't go and raise money. i think he can get the votes. he can keep the votes are around in the support. he has to be able to raise money to have a staff that i can have a campaign. if they can keep him away from that, that's the bigger issue. >> harris: we witnesses merrily see that play out before november. mollie, there is a maybe for the former president from his perspective a silver lining. he doesn't get to talk about these cases. it is a gag order after gag

because paying someone in return for an nda is not illegal, and labeling it in a ledger as a legal expense, is it not a legal expense? i mean if the state wants to say reimbursement for x, y, and z but i think the defense team is arguing this that trump even knew how it was labeled in the book apparently it was made by somebody else a lower level associate at trump tower told to do so by her boss. again this leaves us with what is a problem exactly? >> john: the other big issue in all of this is the gag order against trump. he does not like it at all. here's what "the wall street journal" opinion said about it. so the witness can go on national tv and call the defendant a liar but the defendant can't will apply that the witness is a liar? the asymmetry does not boast of the trial's integrity or fairness. house and possibly fair in modern society for everybody else to say everything they want about this case but the guy on trial can't? >> i don't know. the fact michael cohen continues to speak out and did so even yesterday about donald trump he has a podcast where he talks about donald trum
