i think the problem for the government is why weisberg is basically a failed cooperator. i mean, they punished him because they didn't get what they wanted from this guy to flip on president trump. if he comes in now post fifth amendment he's going to come in and he's going to be a wildcard. he's got no interest in prepping with the government. so if they called them, most likely he backfires and he says, i did all this stuff. president trump didn't have anything to do with it. good to see you don and walks out while the prosecution scratches their head. i don't think they've get anywhere with it. >> and brandon, he's in rikers right now. the fact that he is in jail doesn't mean you can't bring them out. but for the reasons, would you bring and be like this ad who could maybe only plead the fifth so it just depends. i mean, obviously, if something's is going to plead the fifth, he doesn't benefit your case, but i think the other thing is what he's saying is absolutely right. he's just not going to help their case. and i think ultimately, if you can't meet with a witness b

alan weisberg, everything he did was under my command and control it looks like the second thing they're that they're going for with this book is his comments about the way he viewed women sexual dynamic is always present. i do want to point out a bit of a tactical mistake here, i think by trump's defense, they could have stipulated to this, meaning you just sign a piece of paper saying these are the books he wrote. these books. he wrote these books these are the books and then they go in and sort of dry form. they go in and book form. now what's happening because he refused to stipulate is there as a human being on the stand, sally franklin, and she's reading these excerpts out loud to the jury that they might have avoided this? yes. if they had stipulated, then what would have happened is the books would have come into evidence. a prosecutor would have probably gotten up and read it dry to the to the jury, but instead, they're seeing from a normal human beings, sally franklin, who presumably is relatable and it professional and she's reading these sort of awkward excerpts to the jury.
