1:50 am
broke his silence on twitter accusing his lawyer michael cohen of making up stories to get a deal after calling man a for its trial which cut the top democrat in the u.s. senate says cohen's guilty plea is further evidence that special counsel robert muller's and best a geisha should continue. president trump's personal attorney pled guilty to federal crimes president trump's first national security advisor pled guilty to federal crimes a foreign policy adviser to his campaign pleaded guilty to federal crimes and more trials are coming and he gallagher is live for us at the white house so andy what i just read a little bit of what donald trump said about michael cohen on twitter but he is quite verbose as much as you can be on twitter what else has he said what are we hearing from the administration in general. well we haven't heard much this morning but we are expecting a press conference in about an hour and fifteen minutes maybe two hours in which
1:51 am
sarah huckabee sanders will stand before the press gathered in the white house here off to my left and you can imagine in that press conference that the reporters are only going to ask the same questions no matter what network they're from no one i what their political leanings are they going to ask about the implications of what michael cohen has said and let's just take a step back for a moment to choose day when michael cohen was in court in new york and admitted guilt to finance campaign charges but at the same time he was in the stand he implicated the sitting president of the united states as his coconspirator in a criminal charge that in and of itself could cause dontrelle more headaches than the special investigation by robert muller into alleged collusion between his campaign and the russians but it doesn't really end there if you look at also what happened on tuesday and these things almost happened at the same time when paul manifold was found guilty on eight charges of bank and tax fraud for its legal woes away from over ten of those charges were judged to be
1:52 am
a mistrial the prosecution has the option to retry him on those charges and next month in washington d.c. he faces yet more allegations and they're said to be four times as much evidence in that trial as there was in the trial yesterday on tuesday in virginia there are some in the legal community that think fort instead of facing the rest of his life in jail and he's already about seventy years old may also cooperate with the mother's investigation that is speculation at the moment but certainly the president between these two court cases has a threat facing his presidency unlike never before and he had no this is this is a big question so try to drill down as much as you can what is next. that is the question of the moment because you know sarah huckabee sanders repeatedly says in these kinds of press conferences when she's asked about these things you have to refer to the president outside counsel i think the american people at this point with these two court cases both making these two close aides
1:53 am
of donald trump now convicted felons will not want to hear please refer to president trump's outside counsel they're going to want to hear some definitive answers most of all i think people will want to hear from president trump so far he's only spoken about paul matter for he said as a good man and then tried to distance himself from by naming all the other administrations that he'd worked for over the years but the fact is donald trump is in serious trouble now he's been named as a coconspirator in criminal charges but more importantly perhaps michael cohen is now said or his lawyer has said that this is a man who is now liberated to tell the truth to power and somebody who wants or is in his words happy to talk to special counsel robert muller about that investigation between collusion between the russians and the trumpet ministration and cohen repeat reportedly has knowledge of what happened with the trump tower meeting which is really the center of that investigation saying or claiming the
1:54 am
donald trump knew that meeting was going to take place something the president has always denied ok andy gallagher live for us at the white house andy thank you steven erlanger is the europe chief political correspondent for the new york times he joins us via skype from brussels we appreciate your time very much so. lanny davis the attorney for michael cohen has been telling any and everybody that his client wants to talk that he wants to tell the truth now that he has things to say to robert muller to congressional committees is that actually going to happen do you see that happening. i do see that happening the problem is people who support trump will say quite rightly that michael cohen is just trying to save his butt from many years in jail but at the same time one presumes that robert muller will have corroborating evidence of some kind and is building a case that's that's really what we're seeing i mean the case against michael cohen
1:55 am
remember was brought by the manhattan prosecutors but lanny davis who was very close to the clintons of course is trying to talk down. likely jail sentence so offering testimony as a mother investigation i think really quite important and if i were donald trump i'd be very very nervous is that something that his supporters and his party could be rail and somewhat. well you know that the risk always for people who want trump in trouble is that he could fire robert muller i mean he could fire you could get rid of is attorney general you could get rid of broad rosenstein you could fire muller that's the way of the railing of this investigation that would really tremendous challenge to congress and and to the
1:56 am
republican party i'm not saying he's going to do that but if you get really really nervous that's always a possibility and of course everyone wants to see really what's going to happen in the november midterm election because this will be the first chance that the american people have to judge what's going on inside washington that these elections are obviously for local seats at the same time the democrats will certainly try to make it as much as possible a referendum. on donald trump and the republicans will be desperate to try to hold on to the house and certainly the senate because it is the house and senate that will define whether donald trump is expelled from office early or not so the president of the united states a sitting president of the united states has been named a party to a crime by someone who has pleaded guilty to
1:57 am
a crime i think that bears repeating because that's pretty much as big a said get so having said that. is there a way ok fine if he were able to shut down moller and congress are able to to stop this is there still an avenue for the southern district of new york the prosecutors there to still pursue something while he is president and if not while he's president if after he's president if they feel like there's still more they are there based on what michael cohen told them. yes i think they can i mean if you remember watergate what should you but. yeah i was an unindicted coconspirator to watergate too to the break in and you don't normally indict a sitting president which was the reason that's moved on and by that if donald trump were not president i think he would already have been indicted as he has john and some john edwards actually when you think about it john edwards what he got in
1:58 am
trouble for was people paying off his mistress credit. yes that's that's that's precisely right now why did this happen one presumes donald trump understood this was likely to torpedo is already in chances of becoming president of the united states that's why it's a campaign finance problem because it was all done in the context of trump as the republican candidate and then you find yourself circling around the whole russian question which is different but i think to most americans more important and this is what mothers really pursuing was their collusions not really the right words not of the word was there a conspiracy among the trump campaign to use whatever they could
1:59 am
get from the russian government to do damage to hillary clinton that's the one big question and the second big question for muller is even when he was in the white house did the president or his aides in an obstruction of justice trying to forestall or or even to rail the actual moeller investigation and these are our three threads that at some point i think will probably come together but presidents you know are are are different and they're not judged in the same way and that's why the constitution has this whole impeachment procedure and it's very hard to you can impeach a president easily simply a majority vote in the house of representatives to convict a president or the spell a president from office or powers that two thirds vote in the senate that is very very hard to imagine happening as i think the republicans will hold on to the
2:00 am
senate let me let me ask you this it seems that the answers to some of these questions particularly to what michael cohen was saying and regards to payments could be answered if. it already is for able to look at donald trump's taxes is can he be subpoenaed to have to show his taxes to prosecutors. i believe so i mean i know. i'm not a criminal lawyer lawyer but my my my assumption is that robert muller can get his tax returns now i mean they are not to be made public by robert mueller but i imagine you've got. to get most anything that he wants that's written down what's interesting is what michael cohen might potentially tell him about what hasn't been written down. there you go that's going to be the last word steven erlanger thank you so much for joining us for your.
