Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and Stormy Daniels may find
0:06
herself the one on the wrong side of the law after all is said and done. Before we get started

please make sure you like, comment, share and subscribe. Those little things really help us
0:16
out and they help our channel continue to grow. So Stormy Daniels' attorney was on the witness
0:21
stand yesterday and he was given a play-by-play of exactly how this supposed hush money payment
0:28
came to be. And by the way, they're called confidentiality agreements. The media likes
0:32
to call them hush money payments, but they're called confidentiality agreements. Now her lawyer
0:38
gave the play-by-play, but her other former lawyer, a man named Michael Avenatti, he said it's all
0:46
bogus. He went on Twitter and he said it's all a lie. He said that when he confronted
0:52
the attorney they're talking to now, who was the attorney for Stormy Daniels
0:56
and Karen McDougal, who basically got shakedown payments from then-President Donald Trump
1:03
Michael Avenatti said that this attorney admitted to him that it was basically an extortion scheme
1:09
a shakedown scandal to get the money they wanted from Donald Trump. And that's all it was
1:14
That is a bombshell from Avenatti who has before in the past said he would like to be a witness
1:20
for Donald Trump. This is a former Trump enemy. He would like to be a witness for Donald Trump
1:26
and he's got a lot of details he can bring to this case. I think the prosecution should call him
1:32
as a witness. I'm sorry, the defense should call him, the prosecution should avoid him
1:35
The defense should call him as a witness. I want you to listen to this interview he gave to MSNBC
1:41
after declaring he would be a witness for the defense if they contacted him. And he says
1:46
well, he says they have contacted him. I want you to watch this and then let me know what you think
1:50
when you like, comment, share and subscribe. I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America. We love you
1:56
guys. God bless you. Take care, everybody. And you join us at a very newsworthy time
2:02
Some of your lawyering led to the exposure of the evidence in this case. The New York trial
2:08
now will be Donald Trump's first and possibly only trial this year. How do you assess the strength of
2:16
the prosecution's case? Well, I think what I'm about to say is going to surprise a lot of people
2:22
and that is that, you know, I think this is the wrong case at the wrong time, Ari. I think that
2:30
the case is in many ways stale at this juncture. You're talking about conduct that occurred some
2:37
eight years ago. I think the fact that it's occurring in state court in New York is a mistake
2:45
And I think that when you are going to potentially deprive tens of millions of Americans
2:53
of their choice for the presidency of the United States, whether we agree with those folks or not
2:58
or regardless of what we may think of Donald Trump, I think it's a mistake to do it based on
3:05
a case of this nature. I was hoping, frankly, that there would have been less hand-wringing
3:13
less bed-wetting, and that the January 6th case would have been filed in a more timely manner
3:20
There's no excuse or reason as to why that case could not have been brought in 2021
3:27
and it should have been brought in 2021. And had it been brought in 2021, we would not find
3:33
ourselves in the situation that we're in right now. Now, I know a lot of people have been critical of
3:40
the United States Supreme Court, as well as the second, not the second, but the D.C. Circuit
3:48
I think those complaints are, frankly, misplaced
