"you did not talk to president trump that night. you can admit it." cohen kept his cool. "no, sir, i can't," he responded, "because i'm not sure that's accurate." trump's defense pointed out the call in question was 96 seconds, but cohen sticking to his story, insisting it covered both the prank phone calls he received and the hush money scheme. the defense did not get into the plan to pay off the porn star instead, the defense tried to chip away at cohen's credibility, painting him as a serial liar, angry, who turned on trump when he didn't get a white house job. cohen acknowledged he was "disappointed" he was never even considered for white house chief of staff, saying, "i would have liked to be considered, for ego purposes." but he repeatedly claimed he never actually wanted the job, preferring what he called a "hybrid" role outside government,

and it would end up at schiller's house and then it would go to the white house. it's an interesting story and details that we haven't heard previously. it's not clear why they went through this process, susan necheles tried to suggest on cross that it was mainly because the way that the white house mail processing work, that the checks wouldn't arrive to the oval office fast enough and they needed this expedited but that wasn't ultimately elicited. i think it was interesting that tying all of the players together, we are talking about a criminal conspiracy an earlier we heard stormy daniels talking about how it was schiller up and schiller makes another appearance here and you have this cast of characters and i thought in that sense it was significant with tying the story and one nice bow. >> schiller is the bodyguards standing outside the hotel went stormy daniels has the dinner and i believe the reason why it goes to schiller is that there is less of a trail, less of people knowing at the white house that these checks are going for trump to sign them. madeleine

keith schiller. they came that keith schiller was on the phone. they were talking about these payments and so on. where's keith schiller? i mean, that's the way you do it, which of course implies that prosecutors could have brought them and should have brought them and didn't bring them. and then the question is we were talking about this before. what kind of instructions do prosecutors get? about keith schiller who either side could have called if they wanted to. they'll probably get a missing witness charged with respect to him. but with allen weisselberg, who of course is in prison for perjury, having lied to protect donald trump at a previous trial, and who also would presumably invoke the fifth, right. and of course has the severance agreement where he's agreed not to voluntarily cooperate with law enforcement or he forgoes $2 million. so there are lots of reasons he's not there. the question is, if the defense raises it like that, i have to assume the judge gives an unavailable when it's charged saying to the jury he's not here. he's unavail

it shows donald trump with his bodyguard keith schiller. now, why does it matter? well, the photo shows the two men together suggesting that michael cohen could have talked to trump about stormy daniels, and he could have talked to keith schiller too. it undermines blanche's big, whatever you want to call it, grand slam, aha moment from last week when he suggested that michael cohen wasn't telling the truth about the substance of his call on the 24th with trump. that blow coming after a long cross-examination, none of it really significantly chipping away at the mountain of black and white documentary evidence or circumstantial evidence that prosecutors have already entered into the record in this case. in fact, nbc news is reporting that blanche did not even bring up the 2017 oval office meeting where trump reiterates that michael cohen would be reimbursed for the hush money payments he made to porn star stormy daniels. there were also signs throughout the cross-examination that blanche's swipes didn't exactly land in the eyes of the jury that he needs to convince
