>> Lawrence: NEW YORK VERSUS TRUMP TRIAL PICKS UP ON MONDAY WITH DEFENSE CONTINUING CROSS-EXAMINATION OF MICHAEL COHEN. TRUMP'S TEAM QUESTIONING COHEN ABOUT 2016 PHONE CALL WITH TRUMP'S BODY GUARD, HE TESTIFIED HE ASKED TO SPEAK TO TRUMP ABOUT PAYMENTS DURING THE CALL. >> Brian: PAST TEXT MESSAGES SHOW COHEN WANTED TO TALK TO THE BODY GUARD ABOUT HARASSING PHONE CALLS THAT TURNED OUT TO BE FROM A 14-YEAR-OLD. KERRI, WE HAVE EVERYONE BELIEVES THAT WAS THE BIG MOMENT. FOR YOU, IS IT A TURNING POINT IN THE CASE? >> BIG MOMENT FOR SURE, IN "LIKE MY COUSIN VINNYCONSISTENT CULMINATION OF THE MORNING, YOU HAD TODD BLANCHE SAYING IN THIS PASSIONATE WAY, YOU LIED, DIDN'T YOU AND MICHAEL COHEN SHIFTING UNCOMFORTABLY IN HIS SEAT. REASON THIS MATTERS, THIS IS ONE PAIN POINT COHEN IS MAKING AGAINST DONALD TRUMP AND I PICKED UP ON FOUR POINTS ALL TOGETHER FOR THIS CASE. THIS IS WHAT HE CLAIMS, HE TOLD TRUMP HE FRONTED THE MONEY FOR STORMY DANIELS. THIS PHONE CALL, POINT NUMBER TWO, HE CALLED TRUMP VIA THE BODY GUARD TO SAY IT HAD BEEN TAKEN CARE OF AND WAS RESOLVED AND A COUPLE MEETINGS IN 2017, COHEN CLAIMS HE AND ALLAN WESELBERG HAD A MEETING IN FRONT OF TRUMP. IT TURNS OUT THE -- WANTED TO SICK THE SECRET SERVICE ON THEM, IT WAS A BIG DEAL. THE REASON IT WAS A BIG DEAL AND THIS CAME OUT YESTERDAY, COHEN NEVER TESTIFIED ABOUT THIS PHONE CALL BEFORE. HE TESTIFIED BEFORE A GRAND JURY LAST YEAR, YOU WOULD THINK IF THIS WAS A HUGE POINT IT WOULD HAVE COME UP SOMETIME BEFORE IN ALL OF THE TESTIMONY HE'S GIVEN AND IT HASN'T. THAT WENT TO REROSITY IF THIS HAPPENED AT ALL. >> Lawrence: SLOPPY WORK FROM THE PROSECUTION. TELL US ABOUT THE NDA, AND THE TESTIMONY THERE. >> YEAH, TODD BLANCHE ASKED MICHAEL COHEN ANYTHING ILLEGAL ABOUT IT? COHEN ADMITTED THIS IS PERFECTLY L LEGAL, WHICH IS BIG PART OF THIS CASE. I'M SITTING THERE WONDERING WHY ARE WE HERE? SEEMS LIKE WASTE OF TIME, TAXPAYER RESOURCES, MONEY. SEE IF THIS RESOLVING NEXT WEEK. WE'LL SEE. >> Brian: I'VE BEEN WATCHING BOB COSTELLO TALK, I'LL HAVE HIM ON IN A COUPLE HOURS. FROM WHAT YOU KNOW NOW, WOULD YOU CALL BOB COSTELLO, IF YOU WERE ON THE DEFENSE TEAM? >> TRICKY QUESTION, I THINK BOB COSTELLO HAS BEEN EFFECTIVE IN COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION. THE QUESTION A LAWYER ALWAYS ASKS HIMSELF, IS IT WORTH IT TO PUT SOMEBODY ELSE ON THE STAND WHEN IT COULD OPEN THEM UP TO OTHER QUESTIONS THAT COULD UNDERCUT THE CASE IN SOME WAY. COSTELLO MADE SOME COMPELLING POINTS ON TV AND BEFORE CONGRESS AND BEFORE A GRAND JURY LAST YEAR, HE TESTIFIED COHEN TOLD HIM MULTIPLE TIMES HE HAD NOTHING ON DONALD TRUMP AND THAT DON HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORMY DANIELS PAYMENT, WHICH BY THE WAY, CAME OUT YESTERDAY BECAUSE AS WE KNOW AND REITERATED, MICHAEL COHEN SENT MULTIPLE STATEMENTS TO REPORTERS INSISTING TRUMP HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORMY DANIELS PAYMENT. NOW WE HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT WAS A LIE. ONE MORE POINT ON THAT ISSUE HE WAS A SERIAL SECRET RECORDER OF ALL PHONE CONVERSATIONS. ALMOST 100 PHONE RECORDINGS FROM REPORTERS TO DONALD TRUMP. HE'S SOMETHING ELSE. >> Lawrence: I WONDER, WITH TWO ATTORNEYS ON THERE, TO SHOW FOR YOUR STAR WITNESS TO BE A SLIME BALL LAWYER, HOW THAT IS GOING TO IMPACT THEIR VIEW? >> Brian: THERE ARE TWO ON THE JURY. >> YEAH, I MEAN AS A ARE WELL, THE FIRST QUESTION YOU ASK, WHAT IS THE CRIME, WHAT ARE THE ELEMENTS AND HAVE THEY BEEN ESTABLISHED BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT. THIS IS PROSECUTION'S BURDEN TO BEAR. IF ANY DOUBT, JURY MEMBERS CAN'T CONVICT HIM AND STATE DEFENSE HAS BASICALLY PRESENTED ARE HOLES IN COHEN'S TESTIMONY. >> Brian: 18 DAYS OF TESTIMONY AND YOU ASK
