steinglass is saying that he is not going to let the defense know ahead of time which witnesses are going to be brought once the trial starts is presumably that will happen next week. and when blanche, who todd blanche who was trump's lawyer, proposed that he would assure the district attorney's office that trump would but not post about the witnesses if they shared their witness list. the judge responded, i don't think you can make that representation so they're the judge is not only saying no, i'm not going to force them to give you the witnesses, but also i don't think you have control of your client, so it's great for the defense team. >> there. these are the legal consequences of these political attacks, right? if you we're not abiding by the gag order. the district attorney's offices look, we're not gonna we're not gonna extend that courtesy that we normally would to give you these witnesses. and this is something that i'm sure it's very frustrating to the trump lawyers because they would love to know who has gumming down the pipe so that they can adequately prepare. but the d

and then of course josh steinglass got to start his redirect, and the thing that i thought he was great at doing was dismantling the trump's team standard operating procedure theme. they tried yesterday a million times to get pecker to explain that various facets of the trump arrangement were actually just standard operating procedure at ami. they had source agreements all the time. the source agreements had nondisclosure provisions and exclusivity provisions. it was standard to pay sources and on and on and on, and steinglass was great at separating out what made the trump agreement unique and also pointing pecker to provisions in his non-prosecution agreement and the settlement agreement with the fec that bove had purposely not shown to the jury to show in actuality he did admit to conduct that while not flat out admission of a legal violation, was tantamount to the same, chris. >> was there a moment for you, sue? >> yeah, there absolutely was. i have to say for me the morning, there was a lot of trying to discredit david pecker and poke holes in the testimony, but for me, i think the

here, as you noted, josh steinglass, one of the d.a.'s lawyers said, "look, i normally do this as a courtesy, but here i can't because the defendant is still tweeting about these witnesses." merchan said, "i can't fault them for that." todd blanche said, "i can promise you he won't tweet," to which merchan said, "you can't make that representation." blanche said, "we'll treat it as attorneys' eyes only information and won't share it with the client." merchan said, "i'm not going to direct them to do that either." there is a level of distrust here. both of the defendant and also sort of a level of distrust that they can't be independent from their client. i don't think merchan was angry with blanche. if anything, sort of reminiscent of a similar moment with joe tacopina, who litigated the first e. jean carroll trial, where he also tried to make a particular representation. if you give this information to me, i won't share it with my client and my client won't do anything. judge lou kaplan said something to, "i don't think you can make tha

. >> i was going to say that josh steinglass is a very skilled trial lawyer as catherine and i have discussed off camera a number of times. when we were talking about the fact that david pecker was told by michael cohen, we want to purchase these boxes because if you get hit by a bus we need to know we're going to be safe. he did that because that is a precursor to an audio tape. michael cohen recorded a tape with donald trump when trump is heard saying how much do we have to pay for this, 150k to our friend david, and then he says something like if he gets hit by a bus or something, trump is like pondering in his head, do we make the payment or does he make the payment. the point of the testimony this morning is steinglass is already foreshadowing that what cohen is having to say in interpreting that tape is credible because david pecker remembers cohen saying the same thing to him in realtime. >> there was another great moment where david pecker is finally -- you can tell he's getting fed up with having to make these payments. he's made the payment to the doorman, he's hired in quotation ma

that's probably an explanation for why pecker didn't seem to get the gist of the prosecutor josh steinglass. his overall demeanor is sort of like benevolent grandma from boca. he's friendly. he's jovial. what he isn't, as rachel mentioned, is particularly direct. i would predict we're here with mr. pecker for at least another couple days. we should see him throughout tomorrow after the gag order contempt hearing and possibly into thursday as well. as the prosecution told us at the beginning of their opening statement, this whole case is about a conspiracy between three people, the unholy trinity of donald trump, his fixer michael cohen and one david pecker, who is going to loom much larger in this case than i think many of us expected from the outside. >> susanne, i want to pick up on something lisa said in the beginning, tight, scripted opening by the prosecution. one of the things i've heard a lot about is how this is a story that might favor the prosecution, at least in opening for this reason. it is very hard to keep anybody's attention, anyone who has ever spoken publicly will tell you
