in Friends in the Morning, 77 WABC. By
0:39
the way, you know who else loves Alina
0:41
Haber? I can't have one conversation
0:43
with this lady without Alina coming up. It's Siggy
0:45
Flicker, my god, does she love her. And
0:48
we love Siggy too. Siggy was just on one of
0:50
my Siggy on on Friday, talking about the
0:52
importance of the relationship between the Jews and
0:55
the Christians. She said, if me and Haber
0:57
could be best friends, well, then there's
0:59
hope in the world today. That
1:01
was a tent, so... That was a tent, yeah. See,
1:04
Siggy Flicker loves you, Alina, my god, does
1:06
she... Yeah, I love her too. She's like
1:08
my sister. You
1:11
guys are best buddies. Always a great picture by the
1:13
pool at Mar-a-Lago. Yeah.
1:16
That picture. That picture haunts me.
1:19
I know. I've seen it
1:21
a million times. A great shot. They both look
1:23
great. Let's get to this second day of court
1:25
for Trump. And look, you had
1:27
to deal with a judge. And let me do the bad
1:29
talking because I know how lawyers are. You've got to
1:31
deal with these judges. But, Engaron and
1:34
Mershan, to me, are the same. They're
1:36
both evil. They're both
1:38
biased. They're both agenda-driven. They're both Democrat
1:40
lovers. And quite frankly, they're both horrendous
1:42
for the legal system. And they're doing,
1:45
now with President Trump, a huge injustice.
1:47
And not just President Trump, but Americans
1:49
everywhere. So you've dealt with a judge
1:51
like this. This guy, Mershan, he's something
1:53
else, Alina. Yeah. He's
1:56
the same judge that put Allen Weisselberg,
1:58
the CEO of the Trump... organization
2:00
in jail not once but twice, once
2:03
for I think forgetting to put his car,
2:05
his company car on the taxes.
2:08
And now he goes to jail in his 70s. I
2:10
mean, it's a disgrace. He also
2:12
is hearing Steve Bannon's trials.
2:14
Let's be clear that this
2:16
judge is no coincidence that we got
2:18
this judge and that he clearly has
2:21
a bias against
2:23
Republicans in general. Somebody
2:26
would just know the best rate for you
2:28
is a rate based on you with all
2:30
states. Not one based on the driver who
2:32
treats the highway like a racetrack and the shoulder
2:34
like a passing lane. Why
2:37
could it rate based on anyone else? Not
2:39
one based on you with drive-wise from
2:41
all states. When
2:56
you drive a vehicle so reliable it's backed by a
2:58
10-year, 100,000 mile limited warranty, you
3:01
stop thinking about what you can't do and
3:03
start doing what you never thought possible. Visit your
3:06
local Kia dealer today to see what
3:08
you're capable of in a vehicle that
3:10
inspires confidence around every corner. Kia, movement
3:12
that inspires. Call 800-333-4KIA for details. Always
3:16
drive safely. Limited inventory available. Warranties include
3:18
10-year, 100,000 mile power train
3:21
and 5-year, 60,000 mile basic. Warranties
3:23
are limited. See retailer for details. He
3:26
really does. In fact, I had the chance to speak to Barry,
3:29
the Weiserberg son a couple of days ago and he's destroyed.
3:32
He's like, my dad's going to jail. He's 76 years old
3:35
and you talked about it, how he's let other
3:38
people go who have done a heck of a
3:40
lot less. Let's get to the
3:42
matter at hand. Yesterday 500 potential
3:44
jurors show up. I guess they let it. The
3:46
number's the one you can correct me. They let
3:49
about 100 in and more than half of
3:51
those go right home because amazingly when
3:53
asked to be honest, they weren't honest
3:55
and said, I can't really
3:58
do this. I'm not a fan. of
4:00
President Trump. So the question keeps coming up.
4:03
How is he possibly, possibly going to
4:05
get a fair trial, which you know
4:07
already, here in New York? Yeah,
4:11
I don't think you can. I
4:13
would love to say that you could, but people
4:15
are human beings. We're in a blue
4:17
state. I think that they're bringing these
4:19
cases intentionally in blue states. Look at
4:22
Georgia, look at Washington, and it's
4:24
by design. DA
4:26
Bragg is much like Letitia James.
4:29
He is a career never-Trumper. He
4:32
brought other cases against the president.
4:36
And the reality is, this is an
4:38
eight-year-old case that they're rushing to have
4:40
heard before an election cycle,
4:42
because these DAs and AGs would like
4:44
to make a name for themselves and
4:46
use President Trump in order to
4:49
do so and campaign off his back. It's
4:52
just un-American, really, said. I mean,
4:54
you really can't do things
4:56
like that. But the facts are
4:58
clear. Look, Bragg has let
5:01
off felony crime after
5:03
felony crime and brought them down to misdemeanors.
5:06
But in the case of Trump, he took
5:08
a misdemeanor and raised it to a felony.
5:10
That says it all. It
5:12
really does. And you know, you brought up that
5:14
it's going to be difficult to get a fair
5:17
trial. So the question is very, very
5:19
simple. I know that his lawyer is in, he's
5:21
in good shape here. He's got Suzanne, he's got
5:23
Todd, he's got some other very good lawyers like
5:25
him. But it has come up.
5:28
Can he move the venue? Can he get this case? Out
5:31
of New York, every lawyer I
5:33
talk to says highly unlikely, maybe
5:35
impossible. What do you think? Any
5:37
shot? Not at this point. We did
5:39
try to do that. We appealed.
5:42
But no, at this point, the trial is
5:44
underway. So we are pretty much stuck
5:47
where we are. This is Greg
5:49
Kelly. My friends in the construction business, if
5:51
you've been injured on the job, make just
5:53
one call to the construction accident lawyers at
5:55
the Law Offices of Darren T. Moore. With
5:58
hundreds of five star reviews, they've Fight
6:00
for more justice for every client and
6:02
have secured millions of dollars in compensation
6:04
for New York construction workers. Call 888-444-ATTY.
6:07
That's 888-444-2889 for a free consultation. More
6:13
diligence, more persistence, and more justice. Prior
6:16
results don't guarantee similar outcomes. We are
6:18
stuck where we are. Okay, so then
6:20
you talk to people like you and
6:22
other great attorneys and they go, here's
6:24
a deal. Okay? I'm
6:27
going to put the cart before the horse and I love
6:29
President Trump like you do. I love him. But
6:31
he's going to lose. He's going to get convicted.
6:34
The question is, will it be probation? Will
6:36
he have to do a week in jail because
6:38
this judge hates him? He can get up to
6:40
four years in jail. What really
6:43
happens when and if the
6:46
conviction comes down? What
6:48
is your gut, Tanya? If
6:51
the conviction comes down, and based on the
6:53
fact that I know that obviously I can't
6:55
discuss, it shouldn't because the
6:58
man was in Washington, let's remember,
7:00
during this time. He was
7:02
not even in charge of the Trump organization,
7:04
let alone some accounting
7:07
person that books in
7:10
QuickBooks or whatever the payment that
7:12
was made. And
7:14
by the way, it doesn't do so incorrectly. But
7:17
somehow the President of the United States is
7:19
being held on the hook for that, which
7:21
is, it's crazy. But look,
7:23
let's say worst case that a conviction
7:26
comes out of this. The jury doesn't
7:28
get it. The
7:31
discretion is really with the judge
7:33
and that's what makes me concerned.
7:35
The good news is the
7:37
President is under the protection of Secret Service.
7:40
That doesn't change. So hopefully
7:42
they would step in and they
7:45
would have some say in it. I think it would
7:47
be truly damaging for our country to see
7:50
a former president, any president, Republican,
7:52
Democrat, doesn't matter, be
7:54
treated this way and be put in prison. I
7:56
mean, that would just be the most disturbing
7:58
site for the state. for all of
8:01
us because that's what they do in communist
8:03
countries. They put your opponent, your political opponent,
8:05
they jail them, they kill them. So
8:08
I'm hoping that that does not obviously
8:10
happen and if the facts are heard by
8:12
the jury it won't. Alan Dorshowitz told
8:14
me on this show yesterday, I know you
8:17
love Alan too, he says that he thinks
8:19
the president can get a win here because
8:21
he sees maybe not a likelihood but certainly
8:23
a potential for a hung jury. What do
8:26
you think about that? Yeah.
8:28
You just need one and I
8:30
do think that people
8:32
will see this as a sham. I think that
8:34
we have great lawyers as you said on the
8:36
team but the question
8:38
is really what does the judge let them
8:40
hear? And that's a point that
8:42
I have to make because I've had jury trials
8:44
with the president and if the
8:46
judge doesn't allow evidence in that helps my case
8:49
then they never hear it so you can't win.
8:51
So the judge has the
8:53
strings for the puppeteering and if
8:56
he doesn't allow you to see
8:58
the judge see everything, we're not
9:01
magicians, we're lawyers. So
9:03
that happened with me with Judge Kaplan.
9:06
So eventually of course you
9:08
deal with that on appeal but here we're dealing
9:10
with a candidate that's being held in court for
9:13
six weeks. He can't go out.
