schwartz's statement said that michael cohen did it to protect president trump's reputation. in the next line he said it had nothing to do with the campaign. campaigns are about reputation. voters go and vote on your reputation, among other things on election day. >> to protect his reputation. donald trump when he was a real estate developer in new york, when he wanted to be famous, used to pretend to be his own publicist to tell the tabloids who he was sleeping with. he wanted people to know he was sleeping with beautiful women. this has never been someone who was shy about that. let's recall in mid october he was revealed to have bragged to billy bush on that bus and "access hollywood" that he feels free to kiss women without their permission. he would appear on the howard stern show and brag about walking in on half naked teenagers because he could. this is why it makes no sense. there's two reasons why the stormy daniels situation is odd. one is the amount. if you pay somebody off, an $130,000 is an odd number, why not 150 or $125,000. $130,000 makes you wonder is this a

beyond that, schwartz said recently that the president never knew about this agreement and that that was intentional. that statement alone could potentially harm cohen because it's an admission possibly that cohen was signing agreements on on behalf of a client without that client's knowledge. but additionally it may establish that trump was not a part of the agreement, didn't know about it, coupled with the fact that trump may not have actually paid, which was one of the conditions of the agreement, and you can quickly see how the statements of schwartz if they bind cohen can create even additional problems for both cohen and trump down the line. it's important to remember in that case like this, even though schwartz has not entered his appearance in the case, he has put himself out as cohen's attorney, calling cohen his client. so as with all attorneys, you have to be mindful not to bind the client with an errant statement. >> as well as avenatti out in front being very forward in statements but not about the potential issues related to the russia question investigating. pull that

do you agree with tony schwartz there?the -- from my experience, the last year that i worked for him. i was fortunate in that the first two years i worked for donald he had a ceo that he listened to. and we were pretty stable. but as soon as donald took control and he had direct reports is when he started burning through people. so i think what tony schwartz described is absolutely true. in the latter part of my experience. and we have seen this of course in the administration as well. >> you know, michael it's not just he burns through people it's the idea as the times puts it when he is done with them they are left bloodied on the side of the tracks. >> look at michael cohen right now. there is a risk in all of this for the president. he -- you can't just humiliate people continuously and expect them to remain loyal as someone like cohen has been. you know, the coverage of that case must be skrushiating for him. at some point men and women do stand up and say i'm not taking this anymore. and they either walk or they in t

gadi schwartz, ladies and gentlemen, appreciate it.oining our panel now a business reporter from "the new york times." her latest article is what gadi's piece was framed about titled, hey, alexa, what can you hear? and what will you do with it? i sent your article to everybody that i know that has an alexa and said heads up, this is happening because it is sort of stunning when you look at what companies are trying to do. to be clear as you make the point in your piece, there's a lot of patent applications that get filed all the time for technology that might not be coming to fruition. so let's not get over our skis about it, right? >> right, of course. and i think that's so important to know that tech companies file lots of patents and a lot of them never come to fruition. but i think given the concerns that people have around privacy and how little we know around this new realm of voice data, they're worth paying attention to. >> you heard gadi read the statement in his piece from google and amazon talking about people's privacy conc

. >> well, michael cohen's side, david schwartz, said that you're not going to be deposing them, because this is going to be -- the judge is going to push this to arbitration because that's what the nda calls for. >> david schwartz, let me just put this kindly, he doesn't know what he's talking about. the motion, the federal arbitration act is very clear that if the other side contests the existence of the agreement, which is what we are doing, we are entitled to a jury trial on that question, and that's before the court makes any determination as to whether the case goes to arbitration, and in fact, when the judge issued his decision, calling our motion premature, the judge backed us up on that point and bolded it in his order. and yet again they stepped right into it. they went ahead and filed their motion anyway, which i consider to be a legal blunder. we're going to get a jury trial on the question of whether there was an agreement and discovery in the leadup to that jury trial and we're going to find out what the president knew, when he knew it, and what he did about it. we're going

an agreement that cohen's attorney david schwartz has said that the president knew nothing about, an agreement he claims michael cohen did on his own with his own money because he's so loyal to mr. trump. this morning on fox and friends president trump did serious bodily harm to both those claims. one, that he's got a close attorney-client relationship with michael cohen, and two he knew nothing about michael cohen hushing up stormy daniels. >> yesterday through his attorney he's going to be taking the fifth. what's your reaction to that being that you worked with him for a couple of decades as your attorney? >> ryan you know michael. michael's been on your show a lot. good person. let me just tell you that michael is -- in business he's really a businessman, and fairly big business as i understand it. i don't know his business, but this doesn't have to do with me. michael is a businessman. he's got a business. he also practiced his law, i would say probably the big thing is his business. and they're looking to something to do with his bhchz i have nothing to do with his business. i

that's the statement from david schwartz. but in his comments, the president again called cohen his attorney. and that is, as you correctly point out, is a significant word. >> i think it's highly significant. and we should also note, i mean, listen, there are two ways, of course, in order to make your case. obviously, in a court of law, that's the one way. and i think that we'll really learn, should we get to the deposition parts of this, where people have to actually give sworn testimony, we might get to the truth around what happened, how it happened, where the payment came from, how it was made, why it was made, we'll get to that that's a court of law. but what you read was a statement. and as attorneys, we're also looking to get the high ground in the court of public opinion. but i think from a credibility perspective, if you're going to make the argument that michael cohen was simply acting as a lawyer, i just think it defies all common sense and credibility, because lawyers do not act in this way. people who love and c

schwartz, you've dropped your keys again. they're under jimmy's father's sob again this week.endy" and they'll help you out. >> jimmy: see, that's not bad. [ applause ] >> no, because it wasn't really about broadcasting the sports. it was about throwing some personality, a little twist into something normal. like who wants to hear somebody lost keys? no, you want to hear why. >> jimmy: ooh! [ laughter ] see, that's the thing about you. you don't hold any -- you don't hold back in your show. and you talk about every single thing. >> well. >> jimmy: you talk about you. well, you do. >> yeah, it's tough. >> jimmy: no, you're great at it. >> yeah. >> jimmy: i think you could do your show, you could be two hours. >> i would love it if it was two hours. i love doing the show. >> jimmy: you do. >> yes. >> jimmy: i can see that. >> i love doing the show. i love that my career through whatever path it's taken really has tumbled into -- i'm where i'm supposed to be, in that purple chair by myself, yip yapping. [ laughter ] i am. >> jimmy: absolutely. >> i didn't fall into it, you know?

schwartz, the lawyer for mr. cohen, say that the reason that the amount was paid was to protect president trump's reputation. that suggests that it could be related to the election when it comes right on the eve of election, as it did. >> go ahead. phil. and let me ask -- let me pile on a two-part question for you. the first one about the level of concern about potential campaign finance violations and the second about the assessment in sort of people who are expert in this area of law, that this is so much more flagrant than things that have brought down other politicians, like john edwards, whose trespasses were many, many, many months before any election. this was, i think, days before election day. >> days before the election. it's a big concern for the professionals in the white house. it's not a big concern for president trump, who i think views the stormy daniels story as sort of a frivolous story that he wishes were not dominating the headlines, but he doesn't really kind of grapple with the magnitude of
