Alvin Bragg has a big issue according to famed Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz
0:36
When Dershowitz says that Bragg could actually be disbarred for his case against Trump and what he has done in it namely
0:46
Putting a witness on the stand that he knows is lying Now it was just last week
0:52
That everything was drawn into a tizzy and the grand jury was sent back and a lot of different things had to happen
1:00
Because the defense trumps people put somebody on the stand to refute. Mr. Cohen and kind of proved that. Mr
1:07
Cohen was lying. Now, of course, it depends on whether you believe the witness or not, namely Robert Costello
1:14
Who said he knew for a fact? That Bragg was lying and what what Dershowitz says is
1:20
that Costello proved the main witness is going to be a Perjuring liar on the witness stand and that puts a district attorney in a terrible position the district attorney in this case
1:30
Of course being Alvin Bragg. He said if he uses Cohen as a witness, he could actually lose his bar license
1:37
It's unethical to put a witness on the stand who you know is lying and he has to know that Cohen will be lying
1:44
Or he tries the case without Cohen which would be very difficult or he does the right thing and drops the case
1:51
That's what Dershowitz says. Now, of course We're not on the jury. We're not in Michael Cohen's head. We don't know that he's lying, right
1:57
We don't know that for a fact we can't possibly know that for a fact What we do know for a fact is that Michael Cohen served time in prison for being a perjuring liar
2:08
and this is your star witness a guy who is already being
2:13
Proven to be a perjuring liar you had somebody on there credibly refute the things he was saying just a week ago
2:21
then you have a guy who Absolutely hates Donald Trump Stormy Daniels former attorney Michael Avenatti who comes out and says when all the evidence is shown in this case
2:31
It's gonna be a Trump victory and and bad for the prosecution. Then you have former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo
2:38
Saying this case shouldn't even be brought. It's not a local case. What's the local crime here in the state of New York
2:45
So you got all these things going against Bragg and yet somehow some way for some reason he wants to keep going
2:52
Hmm, could it be that he has designs on becoming the governor himself someday
2:56
Who knows but I would say that's a remarkably good guess if one was to guess what the motivation is here for Bragg
3:03
So, I mean you have Democrats you have Republicans you have independents coming out and saying this is a ridiculous case and
3:09
Bragg seems to be plowing ahead. A lot of people expect an indictment in the next five days
3:13
I'm one of those people. I think he's not gonna quit. I think he's a progressive
3:18
I think he's driven by ideology and I think he doesn't really care. He wants that mugshot and that's all he wants folks
3:25
