because, you see, when nutballs like rudy giuliani or mike lindell get in trouble, it just feels likef the plan it's been factored in. but when an anonymous, white collar, harvard guy goes down, and says he'll cooperate with prosecutors, that's got to be when trump is thinking to himself, "oh, no." because if mike lindell or rudy giuliani ever flipped on trump and told the jury trump was guilty, trump would be found innocent by the first lunch break because they're [ bleep ] nuts [ laughter ] i kind of think that was the whole game plan. let those two hair dye addicted clowns scream and cry on tv while the quiet, buttoned up, harvard guy does all the real criming for you. but these buttoned-up quiet type, the chesebros, if you will, are the ones who actually understand what went down. he's a harvard educated lawyer with a long history in washington politics who might actually be able to explain to a jury where the bodies are buried as opposed to rudy, who looks like a guy who knows the best places to dig one up [ laughter ] "i look for tombstones with fancy names. they're most likely

that's reminiscent of exactly what rudy giuliani did in his case where he was being sued for defamation. that might be a fine strategy politically. but in court, i think that those kinds of statements, which have already been brought to the attention of the jurors in this case, are going to backfire in the same way they did when rudy giuliani thought it was a good strategy to make these kinds of statements on the first day of his defamation case. so yes, we worry about it in the political sphere. but in the court of law, as katie knows, it is a very different thing when you make those kinds of false statements. >> ronell, there's the legal argument in the court, there's the political stuff that andrew weiss was talking about that happens outside the court. there's also this middle ground that trump employed that rudy giuliani did to some degree, the undermining of the legal system. the idea that it's probably not going to go my way, so i'm going to use my bullhorn to tell everybody how rigged the system is. >> yes, and i think that part of what's going to be very interesting about the n

million in damages that rudy giuliani was expecting to pay, how do americans deal with those sort ofsimply doesn't have the money to pay the judgment. there is some question about whether they will be able to effectively work through that system or not. donald trump has the money to pay, he also has the money to fight, which may or giuliani does not have. you can't avoid it forever. if he loses all his appeals, he's going to have to pay this. as a system in this country called and execution of a judgment where you can ask to go and grab people's property at the very end of the process. the point is that donald trump is trying to be elected president before he gets to that point because then he will make the claim that they cannot execute a judgment against him while he is in the white house. it's the melding of the white house. it's the melding of the civil, this is not a criminal case, a civil case and politicsjust like there's been a melding of the criminal cases in politics as well. he has been using small donations, campaignfunds to he has been using small donations, campaign fun

it's exactly like what happened with rudy giuliani. where he made a statement outside the courtroom on the first day that was played to the jury inside the courtroom. it's hard to see that it's going to sort of bode any better than it did for rudy giuliani, because it really goes to the issue that they have to address, which is what is the amount of money, what is the amount of money and punitive damages that will cause donald trump to stop to think twice. what is the punitive damage amount that is necessary to punish somebody who continues to defame somebody over and over again. >> you say it's not good for cable tv, but i could listen to attorneys assess other attorneys all day long. thank you so much for getting us started. >>> when we come back, the republican front runner who is facing 91 counts of criminal indictment saying out loud that a u.s. president should be above the law. it is the stuff of dictators. the desperate plea as we wait for a decision on the future of the d.c. trial. >>> plus new hampshire maybe next on the prim

the same thing with giuliani judgment. is a number that you don't normally see in any defamation case. and i don't think they would've been able to show a specific monetary loss of that amount. but juries and judges they will sometimes give those higher amounts. more as a message. and then, is that something that's going to withstand an appeal. when you think about it chris kais, the attorney, he is not a trial attorney he's an appellate attorney. and so one of the reasons why he's here is just a practice case for an appeal. >> talk to me about the council that's there. who is, do you think, you've been's attorney before. who is controlling this. is the dog wagging the, tail or is the tail wagging the dog? >> when it comes to this case i think that in large respect it has been kind of on land for a while. i know earlier on when ron for shed he was on it, he was handling it appropriately. a course he unfortunately passed way. but within lina hobbs handling discovery, that's not something where i think anybody was really at

[applause] well -- [applause] we know how his mind works. he had one desperate act available to him, violence on january 6. since that day, more than 1200 people have been charged with assault on the capitol and 900 have been convicted or pled guilty. collectively to date, they have been sentenced to more than 840 years in prison. [applause] and what has trump done? instead of calling them criminals, he called these insurrectionists patriots, patriots, and promised to pardon them if he returns to office. trump said there was a lot of love on j

rudy giuliani, $148 for defaming ruby freeman and shaye moss., after the $83 million and of course if he ends up paying some $300 million to the state of new york, if he responds to that by declaring bankruptcy, which he's done multiple times, roberta kaplan did talk about that, four times he's declared bankruptcy. i don't know if people would think he was such a rich and important guy if they knew how many times he was bankrupt, what does it do for the politics of donald trump if he's suddenly he's the bankrupt not quite billionaire. >> he was bankrupt in the past and came back to win and win again and again. this time is so public, and people understand what's going on, joy. right now, the win has turned into a big l, loser. and he is so harsh on this brand. i am donald trump. i'm a winner. this is a huge loss, after that first e. jean carroll trial, he tried to make it out to be a joke, is this what they're trying to get me on, and some of his followers believed it. now, this sends a powerful blow. his politics are still there. but he's hobbl

just as we saw in the case as we saw with rudy giuliani. the court they're awarded a much higher damages award because rudy giuliani seems to be acting with impunity and brazenly refusing to back down. i think we may be about to see the same against trump. this does not help him at all. againstif he takes the stand, s only gonna make things worse. >> his lawyer is filing r a mistrial in this case. when trump attended a hearing, judge lewis kaplan rebuked caplan from the bench several times. he seemed to be schooling her in some basic law school one-on-one. you shared this on acts. he did not appear to know the rules of evidence, how to address it, just get evidence admitted. one must stand one objecting. what do you think happened here? >> what happened here is, and this is also something that a good two in the book, trump kind of wheels out a clown car of attorneys. he rotates them in an. out fires them, requires them. how about was involved in this case, a similar case early on and then she was benched and now she has been brought back. i

like someone you'd put in a police lineup next to rudy giuliani.st him. say what you will about trump, but his voters, the people who go to his rallies, are going because they're entertained. his supporters don't want to hear fake winston churchill quotes they don't even want to hear real winston churchill quotes. they want to hear a fake story about trump meeting winston churchill. "when i first saw him, i thought he was an old baby." they want to hear trump gossip about b-list celebrities he met in the '80s and his various comedy routines about toilets that don't flush and rich guys who love rockets if trump ever does get convicted of a crime, at least he'll crush at the prison talent show. he's already got material that will kill with an audience of white-collar criminals >> al capone -- alphonse capone, if you smiled at him in the wrong way, he'd kill you he was only indicted one time. i got four >> seth: it's like trump is writing his comedy bits for a prison audience. "you know they got al capone on tax evasion. that's a crime that puts you p

is like escaping, but many of the people who are lobbing for israel are lobbing for meck. from rudy giuliani to pompeo to bolton and all these people have like connecting these two together, so most of known terrorist organizations in iran are working closely with israel, and at this conjuncture israel is desperate, is desperate to spread the war in the uh in the hope that the west who is becoming hesitant under the public opinion pressure to support israel more, become obliged to come again and give logistic and give more help to israel. all right, thanks, so political anal, joining us from the british capital, london. he devoted his life to the freedom of alcots. his critical role is undeniable in uniting palestinian groups against israeli regime. he is behind pivotal moments in a history of resistance movement in the region. to know more about lieutenant general qassim sulaimani, the martter of alqs, do not miss this documentary, welcome back health minister, he was in kermon's b our hospital and told us about the latest situation there and the treatment of the wounded yesterday we witnes

well, like in ne\giuliani style.vs. >> giuliani style. >> giuliani style. >> new york 30 years ago, wheneverple to task until that connection between a misdeed and being brought to justice is reaffirmed. sadly you know, serious crime, only 2% of serious crime, only 2% of serious crime, only 2% of serious crime ends up in a conviction that is very, very low. any would be criminal doing his due diligence would realise it's actually pays to be a criminal. and i think the other aspect here, without i mean, that's the big point. but the other aspect here is that the police see a lot of this crime through a kind of, um , insurance through a kind of, um, insurance prism. they think, well, if the items insured and a lot of bicycles will be insured through your household policy, your car is. in short, they won't bother with the car because, well, you can go and make claim against can go and make a claim against insurance asda suffers insurance if a if asda suffers a lot thievery, they'll say, lot of thievery, they'll say, well, claim it from your well, go and claim it from your insurers. but the poin

you've got to remember, and that's exactly what happened with rudy giuliani. went out and said dilemma for eatery things that were than play to the jury. and the e. jean carroll side is going to sum up to the jury, saying that for punitive damages, you need to ask yourself what is the amount of money that it will take to get him to stop, or at least think twice before he does this. second, with respect to compensatory damages, an expert was on the sand saying this is the amount of money it takes to repair a reputation. will if donald trump is going out and continuing to defame her day in and day out, that money also would go up. so i think you're going to hear very strong arguments based on the continuing statements. but again, to the main point here, is that donald trump is not vying for the courtroom. what he is saying is going to hurt him in the courtroom, but it is really saying i want a judgment politically on this. >> it's such a confusing thing at times to watch. lisa, in the seconds we have left, what do you make of this question of what size judgment
