President Donald Trump Could Be Going Into Formal Litigation Posture | Morning Joe | MSNBC In a recent episode of MSNBC's Morning Joe, law professor Jonathan Turley analyzed Rudy Giuliani's revealing interview on Fox News, which stirred significant public and media attention. Turley pointed out that Giuliani's performance suggested he was unprepared and scrambling for justifications regarding the legal issues surrounding Trump, particularly concerning the payment to Stormy Daniels.

Key Points from the Discussion​

  • Giuliani's Interview: Turley emphasized that Giuliani appeared to be fishing for a rationale on live television, highlighting the bizarre nature of this defense in a critical legal case. He noted that Giuliani’s attempts to present the payment to Cohen as merely a legal fee fell flat, as it hinted at deeper issues of campaign finance violations.
  • Legal Implications: The conversation noted that Trump's past statements may no longer hold up under legal scrutiny, especially as he now appears to be shifting into a formal litigation stance. Turley indicated that if Trump is serious about his legal defenses, he must carefully navigate his previous public declarations, as they cannot contradicted in situations like depositions or grand jury testimonies.
  • Reactions to Giuliani's Defense: The panel expressed shock at Giuliani’s comments, particularly his claim that the payment wasn’t campaign-related, which inadvertently shoots holes in his own client's defense. The discussion underscored the potential legal ramifications for Trump due to Giuliani’s public blunders, indicating that the president might find himself in hot water if he follows the same narrative in legal settings.
  • Future Prospects: Turley hinted that this chaotic moment might foreshadow more legal difficulties ahead for Trump as he reassesses his position in light of these revelations.
