showing that we were trying to set up an in-person meeting between brent blakely, myself, michael coheners. so you can't reconcile the receipts, if you will, with what brent blakely is trying to sell. >> so where does it stand now as far as future meetings between you and michael cohen and michael cohen's attorneys? >> well, we have zero interest, wolf, in cooperating with michael cohen until and unless he comes to the conclusion that it is time for him to come 100% clean and do the right thing, disclose what he knows about the president and let the chips fall where they may. if he does not do that, i'm tired of hearing about how he's a potential patriot. i'm tired of hearing about the love of country. and i think most americans have heard enough at this point. he needs to do the right thing or move on. period. >> we know he's under criminal investigation. do you think he'll be charged? >> well, i do. i think he ultimately will be charged. but i think the best thing that michael cohen could do for himself and for the nation is to come clean right now, period. >> michael avenatti, thanks

cohen. that's brent blakely's job out in los angeles. lanny davis was brought in for no purpose other than to effectively put a spin on the facts and the evidence and to be michael cohen's mouthpiece, if you will. and i have a lot of respect for lanny, but that's what he is in this context. on television and otherwise. lanny davis was brought in, people are asking, well, why would they release the tape and what is the strategy. it's clear as day to me. the strategy is for lanny to try to reset the narrative around michael cohen. and one of the ways to do that is to be the provider of information, to provide this tape to cnn tonight, get it out there, and put a spin on it. and that's exactly what he's trying to do. >> but michael, just quickly, how does that help michael cohen with the real problem that he has, which is with the fbi, which is with federal prosecutors in manhattan? federal prosecutors in manhattan don't care a word about what lanny davis has to say. >> well, they don't care about what lanny davis has to say but what they mi

subsequent to that communication, i've had multiple communications with brent blakley and lanny davis, both attorneys with michael cohen. at no point in time did anyone complain that my communication with michael cohen was improper or otherwise for the simple reason that it wasn't. it was not improper. in fact, it was a very cordial discussion and i thought it was very productive. >> do you believe, though, that you could work with michael cohen? because obviously in your representation for stormy daniels, you know, you've been very tough on michael cohen publicly. you've said that there has been an evolution of your position towards cohen recently. can you explain that? >> i don't know if we can work with michael cohen or not, anderson. i guess that's the easiest way for me to say it. the only way that we're going to cooperate with michael cohen or have him cooperate with us is if he makes it clear that he is truly ready to do the right thing, that if he is truly ready to release the documents, release the recordings, come clean with the american people and talk what he knows about the president, what he knows about t
