MSNBC’s Melber to Stormy Daniels’ Atty.: It Seems Like You’re ‘Trolling’ Trump

RUSH EXCERPT:

MELBER: "Let me get back to this. We do real talk here on “The beat.” I will say for their benefit, your presentation of the law is correct in terms of ethic standards. But it seems like you guys are trolling Michael Cohen and Donald Trump because they’ve put out a fantastical defense. Their defense being that maybe Michael Cohen went rogue, paid all this money and Donald Trump know about it. You seem to be pressing that, saying you have to tell Donald Trump about this offer."
AVENATTI: "If Mr. Cohen does not want to tell Mr. Trump about it or if Mr. Rosen does not want to tell Mr. Trump about it, so be it. I find it hard to brief that Mr. Trump doesn’t know about it. The bottom line is our settlement offer requires the signatures of all the parties to the dispute. So that’s Mr. Trump, the LLC that Mr. Cohen set up and my client. And people have said, well, there’s no way that the president’s going to accept this. Well, quite honestly, I don’t understand why not. The bottom line here is that my client wants a forum to tell her story."
