THE ALEXANDER TWINS. >> OKAY THAT'S THE WAY WE WILL LEAVE IT. THANK YOU, ALEX. >> HAVE A GOOD SHOW! >> THANKS. >> TONIGHT, THERE IS A NEW TRUMP DEFENSE, BRAVADO. VOTTO IS A SPANISH WORD WHICH, AND CURRENT AMERICAN ENGLISH, USAGE MEANS BOASTING, EXAGGERATING, WHICH, IN LEGAL TERMS, MEANS LYING. SO, THE NEW TRUMP DEFENSE TONIGHT IS I WAS LYING. ON THIS PROGRAM, WE PLEDGE TO BRING TO YOU, AS SOON AS IT IS AVAILABLE, AS SOON AS WE HAVE ALREADY DONE, EVERY WORD OF DONALD TRUMP'S DEFENSE IN THE CASE OF UNITED STATES OF AMERICA VERSUS DONALD J TRUMP, IN WHICH DONALD TRUMP STANDS ACCUSED OF 37 COUNTS OF VIOLATING FEDERAL LAW, INCLUDING THE ESPIONAGE ACT, AND HIS ILLEGAL POSSESSION OF GOVERNMENT DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING HIGHLY CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS. TODAY, DONALD TRUMP ANSWERED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TWO MINUTE AUDIO RECORDING THAT FLOODED CABLE NEWS LAST NIGHT, INCLUDING THIS PROGRAM. THE AUDIO RECORDING SEEMS TO REVIEW DONALD TRUMP SHOWING, HOLDING UP AND SHOWING, A CLASSIFIED DOCUMENT OF MULTIPLE PAGES THAT CONTAINED THE AMERICAN MILITARY'S THEORETICAL WAR PLAN AGAINST IRAN. THE PENTAGON REGULARLY MAINTAINS AND UPDATES THEORETICAL WORK AGAINST ACTUALLY MOST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD, AND MOST OF THOSE MORE PLANS HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER BEING CARRIED OUT. BUT, ALL OF THEM ARE HIGHLY CLASSIFIED. WE ARE GOING TO PLAY THAT AUDIO RECORDING OF DONALD TRUMP APPARENTLY DISCUSSING THE IRAN OR PLANS, AND SHOWING THE PLANS TO PEOPLE NOT AUTHORIZED TO SEEK CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. WE WILL PLAY THOSE TWO MINUTES FOR YOU AGAIN, TONIGHT, IN THEIR ENTIRETY. BEFORE THAT, WE WANT TO DELIVER EVERY WORD OF DONALD TRUMP'S DEFENSE AGAINST WHAT YOU WILL HEAR. ONCE AGAIN, AND THAT AUDIO RECORDING. DONALD TRUMP'S LATEST DEFENSE DELIVERED THIS EVENING IN A DISCUSSION WITH REPORTERS ON HIS CAMPAIGN, IS THAT HE WAS NOT HOLDING UP AND SHOWING THE PENTAGON'S OR PLAN AGAINST IRAN. DONALD TRUMP SAID, TONIGHT, I WOULD SAY IT WAS BRAVADO, IF YOU WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH. IT WAS BRAVADO. I WAS TALKING, AND JUST HOLDING UP PAPERS, AND TALKING ABOUT THEM, BUT I HAD NO DOCUMENTS. I DIDN'T HAVE ANY DOCUMENTS. DONALD TRUMP'S NEWEST DEFENSE, FOR WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO HEAR ON THIS RECORDING, WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE HE IS SHOWING THE IRAN WAR PLAN, IN SPECIFICITY, INCLUDING MULTIPLE PAGES OF IT, TO THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM, IS, I WAS LYING, I DID NOT HAVE THE IRAN WAR PLAN WITH ME. I DID NOT HAVE THE IRAN WAR PLAN IN MY HANDS. I WAS JUST BRAGGING ABOUT IT. IN OTHER WORDS, THE TRUMP DEFENSE IS HE WAS LYING ABOUT THE PAPERS THAT YOU CAN HEAR HIM SHUFFLING, AND HANDLING ON THE AUDIO RECORDING. WE ARE REPORTING, THE DISCUSSIONS WITH REPORTERS ON HIS PLANE, DONALD TRUMP SAID, I JUST HELD UP A WHOLE PILE OF -- MY DESK IS LOADED UP WITH PAPERS. I HAVE PAPERS FROM 45 DIFFERENT THINGS. AT ONE POINT TRUMP GESTURED TO THE SEAT NEXT TO HIM ON THE PLANE, WHERE A STACK OF VARIOUS PAPERS, NEWSPAPERS, COPIES OF HIS SPEECH, PRINT OUTS OF ARTICLES, SAT. HE GRABBED SOME FROM THE PILE AND PLACED THEM IN FRONT OF HIM, MOVING THEM AROUND AS HE SPOKE, AND OFFERING UP A BICYCLE REENACTMENT OF WHAT HE SAID WAS OCCURRING ON THE AUDIOTAPE. IF DONALD TRUMP TAKES THE WITNESS STAND IN HIS OWN DEFENSE, HE WILL BE INVITED, BY SPECIAL PROSECUTOR JACK SMITH, TO PERFORM THAT PHYSICAL REENACTMENT ON THE WITNESS STAND. WHEN REPORTERS ASKED DONALD TRUMP ABOUT HIS USE OF THE WORD PLAN, DONALD TRUMP SAID, DID I USE THE WORD PLANS? WHAT I'M REFERRING TO IS MAGAZINES, NEWSPAPERS, PLANS OF BUILDINGS, I HAD PLANS OF BUILDINGS. YOU KNOW BUILDING PLANS? I HAD PLANS OF A GOLF COURSE. I DIDN'T HAVE A CLASSIFIED DOCUMENT. THERE WAS NO CLASSIFIED DOCUMENT ON MY DESK. WHEN DONALD TRUMP WAS ASKED IF THE REVELATION ON THE AUDIO RECORDING WOULD AFFECT WHETHER HE CONSIDERS A PLEA DEAL, DONALD TRUMP REPLIED FRANKLY, THAT YOU EVEN ASK A QUESTION LIKE THAT IS A DISGRACE. SO, LET'S END IT. THAT WAS THE END OF DONALD TRUMP'S DEFENSE ON HIS CAMPAIGN PLAN. EARLIER TODAY, A FOX DIGITAL REPORTER ASKED DONALD TRUMP IF HE WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE AUDIO RECORDING TO WHICH DONALD TRUMP REPLIED, MY VOICE WAS FINE. IT'S NOT REALLY WHAT PROSECUTORS ARE GOING TO BE FOCUSING ON. HERE IS DONALD TRUMP'S RESPONSE TO THAT QUESTION ABOUT BEING, POSSIBLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE AUDIO RECORDING. >> MY VOICE WAS FINE. WHAT DID I SAY WRONG IN THOSE RECORDINGS? I DIDN'T EVEN SEE THE RECORDING. ALL I KNOW IS I DID NOTHING WRONG. WE HAD A LOT OF PAPERS A LOT OF PAPERS STACKED UP. IN FACT YOU COULD HEAR THE RUSSELL OF THE PAPER. >> YES, WE DO. WE HEAR THE WRESTLING OF THE PAPER. YOU ARE ABOUT TO HEAR THE RUSSELL OF THAT PAPER AGAIN WHEN WE PLAY YOU THE FULL TWO MINUTES, AND YOU WILL HEAR DONALD TRUMP, APPARENTLY SHOWING CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS TO PEOPLE, SAYING THESE ARE THE PAPERS. HE NOW WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE THOSE PAPERS WERE BUILDING PLANS. YOU WILL HEAR DONALD TRUMP WRESTLING PAPERS, AND YOU WILL HEAR THAT PEOPLE WITH HIM REACT TO WHAT HE IS SHOWING TO THEM WITH ONE PERSON SAYING SHE REALLY BELIEVES HIM NOW. BELIEVES WHAT? THAT HE IS SHOWING HER BUILDING PLANS? DONALD TRUMP IN HIS INTERVIEW WITH FOX DIGITAL TODAY SAID SOMETHING THAT EVERY MAFIA KING PIN USED TO SAY. IT'S A PHRASE WE'VE NEVER HEARD FROM SOMEONE WHO WASN'T GUILTY OF VARIOUS SERIOUS CRIMES. THE MAFIA VERSION OF THE PHRASE WAS ALWAYS, I'M A LEGITIMATE BUSINESSMAN. THAT'S WHAT EVERY BIG GANGSTER AND MURDER LIKE ALL CAPONE ALWAYS SAID. HERE WAS DONALD TRUMP'S VERSION OF HIS 21ST CENTURY GANGSTER DEFENSE. >> I DON'T DO THINGS WRONG, I DO THINGS RIGHT. I AM A LEGITIMATE PERSON. >> I'M A LEGITIMATE PERSON. THAT'S ALMOST WORD FOR WORD WHAT EL CAJON, LUCKY LUCIANO, FRANK COSTELLO, RAYMOND, JANEIRO, JOHN GAUDY, AND OTHER MOB BOSSES SAID WHEN THEY WERE ACCUSED OF CRIMES WHICH THEY ALL COMMITTED. THE NEW YORK TIMES IS REPORTING, TONIGHT, ONE OF THE VOICES YOU WILL HEAR ON THE TWO MINUTE AUDIO RECORDING AS TRUMP STAFFER LIZ HARRINGTON, AND THE TIMES IS REPORTING MARGO MARTIN IS ANOTHER TRUMP STAFFER WHO VICE PRESIDENT FOR THE DISCUSSION YOU ARE ABOUT TO HEAR. ALSO PRESENT, A GHOST WRITER AND PUBLISHER OF MARK MEADOWS FAKE MEMOIR OF SERVING AS DONALD TRUMP'S FOURTH AND FINAL WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF. AS YOU LISTEN ONCE AGAIN WITH DONALD TRUMP'S NEWEST LINES OF DEFENSE IN MIND, TO THE TWO MINUTE AUDIO RECORDING, LISTEN FOR THE BRAVADO. LISTEN FOR THE POSSIBILITY THAT HE IS JUST LYING ABOUT THE PAPERS THAT HE IS PLAYING WITH, AND NOT SHOWING TO THE PEOPLE HE IS SPEAKING TO. WHEN DONALD TRUMP SAYS THEY PRESENTED ME THIS, THIS IS OFF THE RECORD, BUT THEY PRESENTED ME THIS. THINK ABOUT WHAT THIS COULD BE. BUILDING PLANS? WHEN DONALD TRUMP SAYS, IT IS LIKE HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL, AND EVERYONE LAUGHS AND HE SAYS THIS IS SECRET INFORMATION. WHAT ARE THOSE PEOPLE LOOKING AT ONE DONALD TRUMP SAYS THIS IS SECRET INFORMATION? BUILDING PLANS? WHEN YOU HEAR DONALD TRUMP SAY HE SAID HE WANTED TO ATTACK IRAN, AND SAID THESE ARE THE PAPERS, THIS WAS DONE BY THE MILITARY, GIVEN TO ME, WHAT IS DONALD TRUMP SHOWING THEM THAT WAS DONE BY THE MILITARY, AND GIVEN TO HIM? BUILDING PLANS FOR A GOLF COURSE? DONALD TRUMP HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS AUDIO RECORDING SINCE THE DAY THE RECORDING WAS MADE. HE HAS KNOWN ABOUT IT FOR TWO YEARS. IN THE 24 HOURS SINCE WE'VE KNOWN ABOUT IT THE LATEST DEFENSE THAT DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN ABLE TO COME UP WITH, IS I WAS LYING I DIDN'T HAVE AN IRAN ATTACK PLAN IN MY HANDS WHEN I CLAIMED I DID. THAT'S IT THAT'S THE BEST HE HAS. HERE THEN ONCE AGAIN WITH THE NEW DEFENSE IN MIND IS THE NEWLY RELEASED AUDIO RECORDING OF DONALD TRUMP THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN CITED AS AN EXHIBIT IN THE FEDERAL CRIMINAL INDICTMENT OF DONALD TRUMP. INDICTME >> THESE ARE BAD SICK PEOPLE. >> THAT WAS YOUR COUP YOU KNOW, AGAINST YOU. >> WELL, IT STARTED RIGHT AT THE -- >> LIKE WHEN MILLEY IS TALKING ABOUT, OH, HE'S GOING TO TRY TO DO IT -- NOW, THEY WERE TRYING TO DO THAT BEFORE YOU EVEN WERE SWORN IN. THAT'S RIGHT, TRYING TO OVERTHROW YOUR ELECTION. >> WITH MILLEY, LET ME SEE THAT, I WILL SHOW YOU AN EXAMPLE. HE SAID THAT I WANTED TO ATTACK IRAN. ISN'T IT AMAZING? I HAVE A BIG PILE OF PAPERS, THIS THING JUST CAME UP. LOOK. THIS WAS HIM. THEY PRESENTED ME THIS, THIS IS OFF THE RECORD, BUT THEY PRESENTED ME THIS. THIS WAS HIM. THIS WAS THE DEFENSE DEPARTMENT AND HIM. >> WOW. >> WE LOOK AT SOME. THIS WAS HIM. THIS WASN'T DONE BY ME. THIS WAS HIM. ALL SORTS OF STUFF. PAGES LONG. LOOK. WAIT A MINUTE, LET'S SEE HERE. LOOK AT THAT. >> YEAH. >> I JUST FOUND -- ISN'T THAT AMAZING? THIS TOTALLY WINS MY CASE, YOU KNOW? EXCEPT IT IS, LIKE, HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL, SECRETIVE. THIS IS SECRET INFORMATION. LOOK AT THIS, YOU ATTACK -- >> HILLARY WOULD PRINT THAT OUT ALL THE TIME, YOU KNOW? A PRIVATE EMAIL. >> SHE'D SEND IT TO ANTHONY WEINER, THE PERVERT. >> BY THE WAY, ISN'T THAT INCREDIBLE, THOUGH? >> YEAH. I >> WAS SAYING, BECAUSE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT IT, AND HE SAID, I WANTED TO ATTACK IRAN, AND WHAT -- >> HE SAID YOU DID. >> THESE WERE THE PAPERS. THIS WAS DONE BY THE MILITARY, AND GIVEN TO ME. I THINK WE CAN PROBABLY, RIGHT? >> I DON'T KNOW, YOU'LL HAVE TO SEE. YEAH, WE WILL HAVE TO TRY TO -- >> DECLASSIFY, RIGHT? >> FIGURE IT OUT. >> AS PRESIDENT, I COULD HAVE DECLASSIFIED IT, NOW I CAN'T. BUT IT'S CLASSIFIED. >> WE HAVE A PROBLEM. >> ISN'T THAT INTERESTING? >> YEAH. >> SO COOL. I MEAN IT'S SO -- LOOK, HER AND I HAVE --
