all of the stuff is about the mcdougal transaction. >> why do you think they're zooming into the mcdougal transaction? >> well, for the very reasons kristy said, that is although it's mostly about pecker and cohen, i think they're looking at donald trump. the first thing they asked for is this call that kristy just mentioned. the initiation of the meeting accommodation later. what would they want to be listening to? it strikes me. i'm not sure how many tapes there are out there. one of them is michael cohen taping trump on the mcdougal transaction. so if they're zeroing in on this, i think what they could well be zeroing in on is exactly the role that cohen says he played, the d.a. says he played and which shows trump's knowledge. he deputizes cohen to be the fixer, the guy to be in touch with things. that really undermines trump's credibility as does the affair with mcdougal which his lawyer said didn't happen. i think this goes with trump and probably the audio to hear the cohen's call. >> just checking in on where they're at with the jury instructions being read back. they're now on pa

national enquirer payments to mcdougal were all about helping the candidacy. prosecutors also played that audio of cohen discussing trumps feelings and therefore his knowledge of the payments to daniels. >> i can't tell you how many times he said to me, i hate the fact that we did it. and my comment to him was, but every person that you've spoken to told you it was the right move. >> and our special continues with a special guest. a former prosecutor and criminal defense attorney. welcome back. >> thank you. >> what stood out to you in this very dramatic week? >> you know white-collar criminal cases are usually boring. testimony can be a drag. very document heavy and complex, but certainly not the case in this trial with donald trump. what stood out to me was keith davidson. you know, the strategy that the defense has in distancing trump from davidson, from these payments, in that they establish davidson only communicated with cohen, never trump. they brought out that the only time davidson was ever in the same room as trump was in the manhattan courtroom. he

i don't know why mcdougal's name was brought up. this is about the $130,000 regarding stormy daniels. why anybody else was brought in makes no sense. >> on tuesday davidson testified mcdougal sold her story because she didn't want it published and if stormy daniels had the same logic, they were looking for money, right? and they didn't want the public to know about any affair between the two. so we've been told about a catch and kill project, right? but it just seems like they were -- that's what the intent was. >> dana: they were selling no story. >> that's b.s. davidson is nothing but a smut broker. this is his niche. some of us represent people hurt. some handle divorces, he targets celebrities with deep pockets to prevent the scandalous stories from coming up. that's how he makes his money. >> dana: this is about the gag order.

mcdougal. back in 2011, he was talking to the boss about running for president and the first thing the boss says is a lot of women will come out of the woodwork. michael cohen was a picture of lots of things but specifically infidelity. and women that came out and claimed infidelity. he was integrated into the campaign and the team at trump on that point. he was never a broke actor in handling accusations of infidelity. he was always working with others. >> to that point, i think the first person who told the story of middle-management michael cohen was because david pecker and trump enter into the conspiracy to catch and kill. they are the innovators, the other founders. michael cohen is the guy that has to go make it all happen. he's frantically on the phone with his own banker. we heard that from gary fasso. he's on the phone with hope and all these other people but the conspirators is another sort of undisputed fact. >> there is no counter narrative about the other innocent explanation. >>
