Misdemeanor enhancement, i think it is probably a decision both sides made but especially the Trump Campaign two lawyers probably helping us in a convoluted factual case. Matt, one thing that is curious about is on two fronts, that the court allowed donald trumps former attorney to testify. There used to be legal protections for that on the same ground the trump legal team, there has been the idea floated of having Michael Avenatti testify as well, who is stormy Daniels Attorney as well.

Theyve talked about keith davidson, stormy Daniels Attorney at the time. Hope hicks. Hope hicks. Lotss of names. This sounds like a lot if you are The Jury to be trying to understand, to wrap your head around, who did what, who was in which position . Yeah.
