avenatti to discuss the implications. there is more reported flux in the white house. a source tells cnn that president trump is getting ready to file his embattled v.a. secretary david shulkin. and chris ruddy says the president will likely make more changes soon. let's begin with sara sidner with our top story. good morning, sarah. >> good morning, alisyn. we don't know if the president watched "60 minutes" last night but a lot of people did. he ended up dining with michael cohen, his person attorney, someone in the middle of this controversy. stephanie clifford, aka stormy daniels break her silence to "60 minutes" about her alleged affair with donald trump and the aftermath. >> he's like, wow, you, you are special. you remind me of my daughter.

>> trump told her that when they met for the first time in 2006. she said their only sexual encounter happened in his tahoe hotel room. >> he said have you seen my new magazine. i said does this normally work for you? i said somebody should take that and spank with you. i said give me that. he said you wouldn't. i said hand it over. so he d. i said turn around, drop them. >> you told donald trump to turn around and take off his pants? >> yes. >> and did he? >> yes. >> the joking stopped and she said he and trump had sex for the first and only time in their relationship. the white house has denied the affair. >> do you want to have sex with him? >> no. but i didn't say no. i'm not a victim. >> it was entirely consensual? >> oh, yes. yes. >> you work in an industry where condom use is an issue. did you use a condom? >> no.

>> melania had recently given birth to a son just a few months before. did he mention his wife or child at all in this? >> i asked, and he brushed it aside and said, oh, yeah, yeah, don't worry about that. we have separate rooms and stuff. >> reporter: four years after the relationship ended, clifford talked to the sister company of in touch magazine. she was offered $15,000 for the story but it was never collected. the article didn't initially publish. a few weeks after she did that interview, clifford says she was personally threatened in las vegas. >> i was in a parking lot going to a fitness class with my infant daughter. and a guy walked up on me and said to me, leave trump alone. forget the story. and he leaned in and said that's a beautiful little girl. it would be a shame if something happened to her mom >> reporter: she did not file a

police report saying she was too afraid. her attorney suing for defamation and demanding a retraction immediately after the "60 minutes" interview. he insisted cohen had nothing to do with any such person or incident and does not believe such a person exists or that such incident ever occurred. cohen brokered a confidentiality agreement with clifford days before the presidential election, paying her $130,000 to keep quiet. although clifford said she wanted to tell her story. >> was it hush money? >> yes. the story was coming out again. i was concerned for my family and their safety. >> i think some people watching this are going to doubt that you entered into this negotiation because you feared for your safety. they are going to think you saw an opportunity. >> i think the fact that i even didn't even negotiate, i just quickly said yes to this very

strict contract and what most peel will agree with me, extremely low number is all the proof i need. >> reporter: in 2018, she signed two letters unequivocally denying the affair. one sent by cohen. the other by daniels's former manager gina rodriguez, saying i am not denying this affair because of hush money. i am denying it because it never happened. she told cooper she was pressured by her attorney and manager, a claim her former lawyer denies. >> you said i'm denying it because it never happened. that's a lie? >> yes. >> if it was untruthful, why did you sign it? >> because they made it sound like i had no choice. >> no one was putting a gun to your head? >> not physical violence no. >> you thought there would be some sort of legal action?

>> the exact sentence was they can make your life hell in many different ways. >> they being? >> i'm not exactly sure who they were. i believed it to be michael cohen. >> reporter: now we received a statement from her former attorney who said he'd be happy to talk if she would allow him out of the attorney/client privilege situation, and she has not done that. we talked to her attorney michael avenatti that said mr. davidson should be concentrating on finding app ethics class and not talking to the media. >> appreciate it. let's discuss what the potential fallout is and what's going on in the white house in general. anthony scaramucci, thank you for taking the time. did you see this last night? >> i did. >> what do you think the fallout is? >> i think the truth of the matter is now i think -- i think there will be less fallout than people think. i think people have been

anesthetized to these scandals. it goes all the way back to president clinton. to me, they will talk about it, another news cycle, and then people will move on. >> the president has been unusually quiet about it. why do you think that is? usually he comes after an opponent. he went after the women who claimed harassment during the election. he went after them. >> i vice president talked about the specific strategy here. but i think the best thing to do here, you if i were offering any advice, i would let it go at this point, and move on. let the news cycle create another news cycle and there will be different information out there. he can focus on his record, the economic success, the fact that he is negotiating with "the chew" niece related with the ch. what's happening is the president is negotiating on behalf of american industry.

>> you know this very well. >> that's what i would be doing. >> right. most people just know you from trump world. they don't know your financial background. that's how we know each other. no question that they are guessing on wall street. that is organized gambling. they make bets. however, it is his tactics that bother them, not necessarily a macro economic -- their analysis of it. this is how he negotiates with china, about aluminum and steel tariffs. it is too aggressive and it's going to create a fallout they won't be able to control the negativity. >> he is putting together a deal with the koreans. he is working with the eu to figure out where the tear relatives going to be there, and quietly negotiating with the chinese. the tactics have been effective for him over the 45, 50 years --

>> he's never done anything like this before. he has never negotiated a deal anything like this. >> well, here's what i would say to you, no, not in the accepts of the political a reap that but, yes, in the sense of business and building his brand and, you know, creating something out of nothing. now, we can disagree about some of his tactics. but i will tell you as an entrepreneur going from zero to one is very, very impressive. let's see how this unfolds. but here's my guess. the chinese do not want a trade war. the trade, if you look at the agreements, are unbalanced. the president is correct about that. if anything, if they reduced their tariffs on u.s. goods and services, that would be freer trade than what we are experiencing right now. >> one of the problems with this politically is it bets so deposits and complicated and it is easy to deceive people.

they have a different tariff structure that is worse than ours. we have accepted their crushing labor market which gives us cheaper goods. anthony, you know this. you actually talked to me about this once. it means people are buying up a lot of stuff from this other place. that is good because you are getting goods into your country and it's goods they want. >> i understand that. here is the purpose. let me explain this quickly. if china is the saudi arabia. if saudi is crude oil, khaochin manufacturing. so the conversation between these two leaders has to be help me help american workers, middle-class families and lower middle-class families with more aggregate demand. at theened of the day, rising wages in those categories will lead to more global growth, chris, not just in the united states.

what's happening right now, and we discovered this during the obama administration, weighty individuals is and government spending is not enough to get the economy back up to 3%. i think what the president is trying to say to the chew niece is that your consumer market, the market i represent, america, help me figure out a way to get the wages up. one thing to do in that situation is are balance a trade deal. one more quick point. since the second world war, the united states made a decision to uneven the trade deals. why do that? we made a decision that we would create more global interdependence and rising middleclass. that has worked very successfully but has had the deleterious side effect of hurting lower middle class wages. >> macroeconomics aside. if you want to build up your labor base in this country, you invest in innovation. you train up your workers and

incentivize new kphu businesses and service economy businesses because that's our economy anyway. he can do those things. he has gone this route. we will see where it takes us. >> they get to package both of them. >> the idea of bringing back coal, steel. >> it's not just him. look at what happened with the omnibus deal. i would resubmit to everyone that lives in washington, wrgs is the 25-year plan for america? >> these guys don't even think 25 weeks -- >> but the chinese do. >> that is a political culture difference. they have a political dynasty in place there. >> i would make the argument rather than dismissing what assume saying, not saying that you are but we are as a culture, stop everybody, hit pausings and say we need 25eu or 50-year plan if you want to compete with the chinese and other world leaders in the economy, we have to do it together. >> let me ask you two other

things in terms of political dynamics. you were here a few weeks ago. you said, man, it's rough in that white house. i don't care what anyone tells you. john kelly has problems in that white house. is since then, it seems to have only gotten worse. they tried to close ranks. porter situation was one thing. we still don't know what went wrong there. and now there's more and more fallout. it looks like shulkin will be gone. why is this happening? >> i want to state for the record, i don't want bad things to happen. >> nobody thinks that. >> assume wishing john kelly well. i want the white house to work smoothly and be completely functional. >> but it suspect. >> i was saying that for a reason because it was true. >> we'll have to see what happens. if the president is making more strategic changes in personnel, that will smooth things out on a going-forward basis. >> who says it is strategic?

it has been such a blood letting. we have never seen this turnover. he said he would bring in the best people. that's one basis of criticism. this doesn't seem to be about strategic choices. it seems to be we're out and you >> tony: what the vision is. >> i had this conversation with you on your primetime show. and congratulations about the primetime show. >> thank you. >> i sold two businesses, or almost sold my last business. what happens in the first two years is you have heavy turnover. he is an entrepreneur. the american people elected not a politician -- >> who runs a business like this? >> i have. >> you turn over your 45% of your employees? that's called a bankruptcy. >> have you ever run a business? >> i haven't run a business but a worked in corporate. no one gets rid of half of or their workforce. >> this is a start-up.

he is trying to put personnel on the field that like him -- >> the white house is a start-up organization? the huest echelon of executive activity in our democracy? >> again, you want to talk only on this statement. >> it needed to be called out. >> hold on a second, chris. you hired an american business leader who is an entrepreneur to run the white house. >> find me a business of new merit that had this kind of turnover. >> i think every one of the start-ups in silicon valley. >> this is not a start-up. this is supposed to be the highest level of performance. >> step back and look at the economic dashboard, economic activity. >> you have largely a continuation of where we were before. >> i disagree. >> what are you talking about? all of these things have been trending in this direction. >> the bully pulpit and the massive he deregulation that has taken place the last 13, 14

minutes led to more business activity, business growth. i was in europe and the middle east. the movement to 21% on the taxes opened america nor business again. there is more capital investment "coming to america". >> look, that may be true. we'll see. but the idea they were paying 35% as a business tax you know isn't true. that was the nominal rate not the effective rate. >> on the canal you can see every corporation in dublin. we have to move them back to america. you don't want to give the president credit for that but i do. >> that's not the point. >> 35% to 21% made us way more competitive. >> it may. >> 3 million new jobs. we have downloaded about $36 billion -- >> it's about 1.7 million new jobs suns he's been president. it's a continuation of a trend,

be although we had a bad year in 2016. most of the metrics are consistent with where they are. that's good that he is continuing. >> we'll debate the accounting. you can't tell me if taxes are price for services and you cut the taxes from 35% to 21%, a 40% decrease. >> right. >> 40% of american corporations that says not going to help america. >> economists would make my hair fall out with their intelligence would say give it time. not me. i would be out of a job is. i want to see over time. we'll see if helping small businesses, we'll see if that takes root. >> he's doing a good job. and it is showing up in the polling data. even though we want in 2010, tweurbgs 1982, midterm elections are difficult for first term presidents. >> right. >> when you look at the generic

ball ballot, we will have to see in november. >> it is pretty tight. >> wages are up. >> i think there are a lot of reasons no it purchase the biggest thing is this content for government in general so neither party can take advantage. let me ask you two things real quick, do you think john kelly is safe in husband job right now? >> i don't know. that will be up to the president. i have nothing against john kelly. >> you haven't heard where you think he is the next one? >> no. i think the president likes him. >> do you think kellyanne conway should do your old job? >> i think kellyanne conway has been a brilliant public servant. if that's the spot that she wants to be in, i think she would be great in. there are a number of different things she's doing with the president right now. if she does do that job, i wish nothing but great success. she is a wonderful person.

>> would you tell the president to settle the suits with the three women if you are advising? >> i don't know the answer to that. that is more of a michael cohen situation. i have talked to michael about it. my guess is, again, i'm not her lawyer. but if i was her lawyer, section 1.1 said and/or, chris. i know the lawyer will say something different. but i can't find anything in california case law. >> me either. >> that says and or is not okay. i think she will get hurt on this one. >> i think the idea that trump didn't sign it means there was no deal. that doesn't mean the lawsuit goes away. we'll see what he does. there is a question of why and what's going forward. we have to measure it over time. i'm not saying it is bad. >> i'm going to take a picture of you.

>> thank you for that segue. that was great. thank you, gentlemen. stormy daniels's attorney said the "60 minutes" interview is just the beginning. what does that mean? attorney michael avenatti joins is us after the break. they always thank you for your service, which is nice because as a spouse you serve too. we're the hayles and we're usaa members for life.

>> i was in a parking lot going to a fitness class with my infant daughter. and a guy walked up on me and said to me, leave trump alone. forget the story. and he leaned in and said that's a beautiful little girl. it would be a shame if something happened to her mom. and he was gone. >> a major revelation in stormy daniels's "60 minutes" interview. the adult film actress says in 2011 she was threatened in a las vegas parking lot after agreeing to talk to a tabloid magazine about her alleged affair with donald trump. joining us to discuss the interview is attorney for stormy daniels, michael avenatti. thank you very much for being here. >> good morning. >> that moment she was talking about in 2011 where she says she was threatened, does she think

michael cohen for the trump camp was behind that? >> no doubt. that's the only place they could have come from. it did not come from someone close to her. it didn't come from the magazine. there's only one other place it could have possibly come from. and quite honestly, every mother in america can identify with the story that she just told and how frightening and terrifying that would be were they in her situation. >> she said to this day she could identify that person. so what does that person look like? >> we are in the process of discovering, investigating exactly who that pepper was, and we are going to get to the bottom of it. >> michael cohen put out a statement last night after the interview. his lawyer. in truth, mr. cohen had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with any such person or incident, and does not even

believe that any claims, libel per se and intentional in friction of emotional distress. it would also appear your statements of alleged criminal conduct are being made to obtain an advantage in a civil dispute which is also improper. what's your response? >> michael cohen needs to stop hiding behind pages of paper and come clean with the american public. he lied about the $130,000. he's -- >> what did he lie about? he knittadmitted he paid that. >> that donald trump knew nothing of this agreement, that he advanced $130,000. it's laughable. it's not believable. time for him to come on camera and sit down with you or others and answer hard questions. >> you suggest indeed a tweet this is just the beginning. the interview we saw last night was just the beginning. >> i haven't suggested. it is just the beginning. we have a whole host of

evidence. this is not going away. and mr. cohen and the president better come clean with the american people and they better do it quickly. >> what kind of evidence do you have? >> again, i'm not going to get into the details of the evidence. we are in early stages of this. suffice it to say, we are only getting start stpwhrd when will you reveal it? >> over the next few weeks and months. >> what are you trying to prove? >> we will prove mr. cohen's statements to the american people are false. that at all times mr. trump knew about this, knew about the $130,000, was fully aware of it, and with the assistance of mr. cohen sought to intimidate and put my client under his thumb. that's what we're going to prove.

our position is that the

agreement never was in effect to begin with because mr. trump never signed it. >> i understand. but she signed it. she signed it and she got the money. so is from your side, from stormy daniels, she should comply with the agreement. no? >> we don't agree. if you offer to sell me your house and i only sign it, that doesn't mean you have to sell your house. >> i understand. but why didn't she take issue at that moment. say, hey, this isn't signed by donald trump. why now? >> i wasn't her counsel at the time. >> so if you had been, you would have said this agreement is null and void? >> what i will saw is this. i've been her counsel, this would have been handled quite a bit different. >> this is what the lawyer for michael cohen is saying to you. this is a statement that has just come out. i hereby demand that you and your client crease and desist from making any false and defamatory statements about my

client that you healed retract and apologize to mr. cohen through the national media to your defamatory statements on 60 minutes and make clear that you have no facts or evidence whatsoever to support your allegations that my client had anything whatsoever to do with this alleged thug. >> we're just getting started. >> last night stormy daniels said something really interesting. she said she wasn't attracted to donald trump. she said she did not want to have sex with donald trump. she also said this was completely consensual. make sense of that for me. >> she agreed to have sex with him at the time. i think maybe a lot of women that have found themselves in a similar situation over the course of their lifetime and have perhaps given in to something they didn't really want to do at the time. >> but why? why did she do that? >> well, i can't really answer

that question relating to why she did it. she was 27 years of age at the time. she was impressionable. she wasn't a teenager by any stretch of the imagination, but, you know, i think people find themselves in situations all the time and they make decisions that perhaps they regret. >> but did she think she was going to get something out of that? >> i don't think she did it to get something. i think she was in the moment and made that decision. >> it was just curious to hear her. i had not heard her say she was not attracted to him and did not want to have sex with him. generally a cop sensual relationship means you're in it together. so that was just curious. >> i don't think my client is the only woman in the last 100 years that perhaps ended up having sex with a man that she really didn't want to have sex with. >> are police investigating now the threat that she revealed last night that was made to her when she had her infant daughter with her?

>> not to the best of my knowledge. >> should they be? >> i think they should. it is a serious matter. i know we are. >> how will that -- how will we know the truth of that? how will we get to the bottom of that? >> we will get to the bottom of it because we will figure out who that was and who hired them. although i'm fairly clear as to who hired them? >> again, that is? >> it is fairly obvious. it has to come with someone associated with the trump organization. >> michael avenatti, thank you very much for. we will continue to talk to you and see where this develops. >> thanks for having me. >> chris? >> a lot to discuss but we won't. here's the tease. will the u.s. react to russia over the nerve agent attack in the uk? janice, mom told me you bought a house. okay.

we have breaking news. two austin police officers have been injured after a suspect opened fire on them. police say the officers were responding to an unknown emergency after someone called 911 for help. when police knocked on the door, no one answered, and then a gunman started firing. one of the officers was shot. another was injured.

none of the injuries are said to be life threatening. police say the s.w.a.t. team shot and killed the suspect after a standoff. meantime, police in skwrer is seu city ajersey city are investigating the death of an off-duty officer. they found him inside a house with a gunshot wound and he later died at the house. saudi araby intercepting seven missiles fired from yemen. debris killed a man. they are blaming houthi rebels for the missile attack. this is not the first time they have been targeted. the saudis launched air strikes on the yemeny capital. a fire ripped through a shopping mall in siberia. it broke out on the top floor of the four-story building. twenty were rescued from the burning building.

it is unclear what started the fire. president trump could decide whether to expel a group of russian diplomats from the united states in retaliation for the nerve agent poisoning in the uk. they are getting optimistic signals that the president will expel a significant number of russians. this would be an interesting development. >> one, it would be an echo pattern with what we saw from obama when he expelled the guys. >> yes. which is why it would be so interesting. this is not how president trump generally deals with russia. >> if you want to go that way, there is established conformity where we have done this before, so that would make an easy path. what is unusual is the deliberativeness. tariffs, everybody tells him not to do it, he jumps in. here they have to push him along and massage it. same question remains.

all right. so stormy daniels, the playmate case, the third case that's out, other allegations that are out. you have the private side of this. then you have the legal issues and the exposure to the presidency. there's a big difference. we'll explain next. i was a c130 mechanic in the corps,

so i'm not happy unless my hands are dirty. between running a business and four kids, we're busy. knowing that usaa will always have my back... that's just one less thing you have to worry about. we are the cochran family, and we'll be usaa members for life.

if you'd have told me three years ago... that we'd be downloading in seconds, what used to take... minutes. that guests would compliment our wifi. that we could video conference... and do it like that. (snaps) if you'd have told me that i could afford... a gig-speed. a gig-speed network. it's like 20 times faster than what most people have. i'd of said... i'd of said you're dreaming. dreaming! definitely dreaming. then again, dreaming is how i got this far. now more businesses in more places can afford to dream gig. comcast, building america's largest gig-speed network. the president has ignored questions about the stormy

daniels scandal for weeks. and that is very unusual. he is an active opponent. well, it doesn't matter because the story is "out in the open". the big legalism indication for her in that and maybe political ones for him. let's discuss. we have julie pace and josh green. julie, what do you think moved the needle from the stormy daniels's interview? >> i think certainly the fact that she offered in more detail this idea of being threatened by people that she felt were connected to trump and that that seems to have been a motivating factor both in staying silent and signing multiple agreement saying there was no truth to the allegations. i think that is awe big piece of it. and she and her legal team keep teasing this idea there could be more. she is wouldn't directly answer the question whether there are text messages or photos out there. we don't know.

they are at least leaving that possibility open right now. >> he just told us the same thing. michael avenatti said there is more to come. josh, is stormy daniels going to be a thorn in the president's side for weeks to come, or are there bigger ram fissions here? >> i think both are true. i think she will stick around. that seems to be her plan and avenatti's plan. but there are potential bigger ram tpheubification ramifications. they stem from the $130,000 payout michael cohen paid. that is not in dispute. the danger to trump is that could constitute an illegal campaign contribution. and one of the interesting things about the "60 minutes" interview to me last night was that avenatti, the lawyer, produced evidence showing that that payment went to michael cohen at his trump tower address and that the communications were conducted through trump organization e-mails which potentially brings donald trump himself into this case of

potential illegal campaign contribution. and we know from the example of john edwards that these kinds of things can be prosecuted. >> right. >> so certainly that represents a legal threat. >> i know trotter, the fec head at the time, said he thinks the facts line up better here. we don't know that. he doesn't have command of the facts in this situation. even if it did come to fruition, it's a fine. >> he is the president of the united states. >> no, i get it. but that is an optics question. it is not real legal exposure. we keep talking about it that way. it is not like this is going to be upseting the presidency even if he were found -- and feel free to weigh in, julie. the idea that if this went to a deposition, if he wanted to talk to mueller is and for some

reason this were found tactically or derivatively to be relevant and he didn't tell the truth about it, that's what started the clinton cast dacadek in the day. i think stormy daniels and her lawyer, mr. avenatti, have significant legal exposure as well. >> it is important to point out. there are several big ifs if trump were to be deposed, if mueller were to question him about that. and the fear there for trump and his legal team would be that he would purger himself. that's a fear they have broadly speaking as it comes to what mueller is questioning him about. that at this point seems to be several steps away. may never happen. the stakes, the consequences headed in that direction would be much greater than campaign fund-raising -- or campaign finance violation. >> josh, politically speaking,

this is all sort of tight lating to watch. however, it's not as bad as the "access hollywood" tape. that was sexual assault. these are consensual relationships with adults. so politically speaking, does it make a dent? >> we'll see. trump isn't exactly flying high in the polls right now. it's a real danger heading is into november. the one other issue i think is worth mentioning, though, was stormy daniels's allegation that a member of the trump organization threatened her and her infant daughter. if there were a discovery process, that is another area where trump and his organization could potentially be in some legal liability that went beyond the civil fine. >> sure. the allegation is did you tell anybody at the time? if it was so unsettling -- >> did you report it to the

police. >> what did you say. if you know if you recognized the person right now, it can't be michael cohen. she had an opportunity to say it was him and she is didn't. i think there's legal exposure problems here. it was weird to hear her original lawyer put out a statement. a little cryptic because he has confidentiality issues. >> he's asking her to waive that. >> he said this is not my reckoning view of the facts. i don't know how this shakes out, julie. but one thing that's weird is trump is not going after these opponents. and i have never seen him be reserved like this before since he's become president. am i wrong there? >> it is is basically stormy daniels and vladimir putin who are not getting the trump treatment. >> one and the same? >> the whole ethos he has

created is he is a counterpuncher. >> she said some things that seemed a little calculating. >> she did seem to be needling him certainly on her statements that she wasn't attracted to him. she didn't want this kind of relationship with him. that's the thingthroughout this i don't know how much longer he can maintain it. there's one key difference with this situation, though, is that there's a personal aspect for him, you know, involving his wife, his kids, that may be factoring in his decision to keep quiet as well. >> can i move on to gun policy or do we need to -- >> please. >> move along. >> thank you for the prodding. so josh, obviously there were all of these demonstrations, nationally even international yesterday about trying to stop

gun violence. so you're in washington. what do you think happens next with congress and beyond? >> i don't think a lot is going to happen with congress. we had minor legislation, minor gun legislation in the omnibus spending bill but nothing significant. there isn't any sign i can see that anything will happen between now and november. the next step for the gun movement is going to have to be -- to show their strength at the ballot box in november and especially for the young people who were the leaders of this march to get their cohorts to come out and vote. millennials make up the largest segment of the american electorate and they vote in lower numbers than anybody else that's one reason why republicans and even some democrats don't feel a particular threat. in order for that to change, they're going to have to register, organize and turn out at the polls in serious numbers and if they do and if it costs a lot of republicans their job, then potentially you can imagine washington beginning to lean a little more in the direction of

taking serious gun control measure. >> julie, last thoughts. >> i would watch these competitive races in the house and the senate and see if democrats start pushing gun control to the forefront, if they are still holding back on that issue in a place like missouri or indiana, for example, they don't expect that this enthusiasm that we saw over the weekend is going to translate into the polls. >> not every state feels the same way about this issue. >> of course. this is a total geography issue, absolutely. that's part of the polarization. >> if the voters don't care and they say, it matters to me, i don't care what our culture is, then it could be a big deal because politicians act out of consequence not conscious too often. >> julie pace, josh green, thank you very much. so tariffs against chinese goods spark a trade war? what the president's top advisers are saying about this next?
