let me ask you the same question. stormy daniels, michael cohen. allen y soleberg, who can do the ex president most the most amount of damage, robert, just as a lawyer always will do, i will say, david packer, i think that the, for a publisher of the national enquirer is the person that will be the most compelling and the most damaging witness because he was in charge of these catching kills games. he does not have any retained on him. the strong daniels hes or that are our weisel burger. linda, michael cohen, how the he has very clear and dynamic information mickely to the presence convict. explain that to our viewers around the world who may not understand what you just said with this a catch instead, catch and kill a thing that david packer, the, i guess the seo of the national enquirer was supposedly allegedly doing with mr. trump, why that's so significant, absolutely won't, will from the, from the indictment from the information we've gathered. the accusation is that present trumpet. mister packer went through a process of buying a, going to people
