HE HAS DEMANDED A RETRACTION. SAVANNAH?
SAVANNAH? >> ALL RIGHT.
HALLEY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WE ARE JOINED BY STORMY DANIELS
ATTORNEY, MICHAEL AVENATTI.
I ASKED YOU WHETHER THERE WAS
ANY DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE, TEXT
MESSAGES, PHOTOS, THAT VERIFIED THAT STORMY DANIELS HAD THEFIED
THAT STORMY DANIELS HAD THE AFFAIR SHE CLAIMS SHE HAD.
YOU SAID TO ME, THATS A
QUESTION THAT MISS DANIELS WILL
HAVE TO ULTIMATELY ANSWER.
CUT TO LAST NIGHT, SHE IS ASKED
DIRECTLY ABOUT THIS ON "60
MINUTES," AND SHE SAYS, MY ATTORNEY HAS INSTRUCTED ME NOT
TO ANSWER.
TO ANSWER. SO DOES SHE OR DOESNT SHE HAVE
THIS EVIDENCE?
THIS EVIDENCE?
>> AGAIN, WERE NOT GOING TO GET
INTO THE DETAILS OF EVERYTHING WE HAVE AT THIS TIME.VERYTHING
WE HAVE AT THIS TIME. AND THERES A REASON FOR THAT.
WERE IN THE VERY EARLY STAGES
OF THIS CASE.
WE UNDERSTAND THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE WANT ALL THE INFORMATION
RIGHT NOW, IMMEDIATELY. IT WOULD MAKE NO SENSE FOR US TO
PLAY OUR HAND AS TO THIS ISSUE,
AND WERE NOT GOING TO DO IT
RIGHT NOW.
>> WHY NOT?
THIS IS THE VERY MOMENT YOU NEED
TO DO IT.
SHE HAS DENIED IT THREE TIMES.
SHE HAS STATED, THIS AFFAIR
DIDNT HAPPEN.
ISNT THIS THE VERY MOMENT SHE
SHOULD COME FORWARD AND AS YOU
MIGHT SAY, PUT UP OR SHUT UP, IF SHE HAS THIS EVIDENCE?HUT UP, IF
SHE HAS THIS EVIDENCE? >> PUT UP OR SHUT UP?
SHE SAT DOWN WITH A MAJOR
JOURNALIST AND ASKED -- ANSWERED
SOME VERY TOUGH QUESTIONS.
WHERE IS MR. COHEN?
IS HE COMING ON AFTER ME?
I DONT THINK SO.
WHERE IS PRESIDENT TRUMP?
IS HE GOING TO COME ON AFTER ME?
SHES ANSWERED -- LET ME FINISH. SHES ANSWERED SOME VERY FINISH.
SHES ANSWERED SOME VERY DIFFICULT QUESTIONS.
DIFFICULT QUESTIONS.
WERE NOT GOING TO PLAY OUR HAND
RIGHT NOW.
AND THE REASON IS, BECAUSE WE
HAVE A CASE TO WIN.
>> BUT WAIT A MINUTE, MICHAEL.
YOU TWEETED A PICTURE OF A DVD OR A CD, SUGGESTING THAT THERE
WAS GOING TO BE MORE EVIDENCE.
THATS THE SUGGESTION, RIGHT?
YOU DONT DISAGREE.
>> AND THERE WILL BE MORE
EVIDENCE.
EVIDENCE.
>> AND NOW YOURE BEING COY AND NOT SAYING IT.RE BEING COY AND
NOT SAYING IT. IS SEEMS YOURE PLAYING GAMES.
>> IM NOT PLAYING GAMES.
THERE IS GOING TO BE MORE
EVIDENCE.
EVIDENCE.
ITS JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN
RIGHT NOW.
EVERYONE WANTS IMMEDIATE
GRATIFICATION.
ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN RIGHT
NOW.
>> LETS TALK ABOUT THIS THREAT
SHE SAID WAS MADE AGAINST HER
SEVEN YEARS AGO IN A PARKING
LOT.
SHE SAID SOMEBODY CAME UP TO
HER, HER INFANT DAUGHTER WAS
RIGHT THERE, AND SAID, "IT WOULD
BE A SHAME -- IM PARAPHRASING -- "IT WOULD BE A
SHAME IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO
THIS LITTLE GIRLS MOTHER."
SHE TOOK IT AS A THREAT.
>> THATS NOT ALL SHE SAID.
THERE WAS A SPECIFIC REFERENCE
BY THAT INDIVIDUAL TO MR. TRUMP.
SO ITS PRETTY CLEAR THAT IT
COULD HAVE ONLY COME FROM ONE
PLACE AND ONE PLACE ONLY.
WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF RUNNING
AGROUND EXACTLY WHO THAT WAS AND
I AM CONFIDENT AT THE END OF
THIS THAT WERE GOING TO
DISCOVER IT.
DISCOVER IT.
>> DO YOU FEEL YOU KNOW RIGHT NOW WHO IT WAS?YOU KNOW RIGHT
NOW WHO IT WAS?
>> RIGHT NOW?
>> YES.
>> NO.
>> DO YOU -- HAVE YOU TALKED TO
HER AND ASKED HER FOR A PHYSICAL
DESCRIPTION OF THIS PERSON?
>> IM NOT GOING TO GET INTO THE DETAILS OF MY COMMUNICATIONSTHE
DETAILS OF MY COMMUNICATIONS
WITH HER.
BUT WHAT I WILL TELL YOU IS, SHE
CAN DESCRIBE -- EXCUSE ME -- THAT PERSON IN GREAT DETAIL.
>> HAVE YOU TRIED TO SHOW HER
PICTURES AND SAY, IS THIS THE
PERSON YOU SAW, IS THAT THE
PERSON YOU SAW?
SHE SAID ON "60 MINUTES" IF HE
WALKED RIGHT IN THE DOOR RIGHT
NOW I WOULD KNOW HIM.
>> WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF
IDENTIFYING WHO THAT WAS.
SHE REMEMBERS IT LIKE IT WAS
YESTERDAY, BECAUSE LIKE ANY
MOTHER IN THAT SITUATION, IT WAS
TERRIFYING.
TERRIFYING.
>> YOU SAID IN A TWEET AGAIN, THERE CAN BE NO QUESTION WHERE
THIS THREAT CAME FROM.
IT COULD HAVE ONLY COME FROM ONE
PLACE.
PLACE.
DO YOU MEAN IT COMES FROM
SOMEBODY RELATED TO TRUMP, OR DO YOU MEAN A PARTICULAR PERSON? DO
YOU MEAN A PARTICULAR PERSON? >> NO, IT HAD TO BE SOMEONE THAT
WAS RELATED OR SENT BY MR. TRUMP
OR MR. COHEN.
THERES NO OTHER LOGICAL
EXPLANATION.
>> AND YOU ARE NOT IN ANY WAY
SUGGESTING IT WAS MR. COHEN
HIMSELF.
>> NO.
WE KNOW IT WASNT MR. COHEN.
>> YEAH.
AND BUT YOU THINK MR. COHEN MAY
HAVE DIRECTED SOMEONE TO MAKE
THIS THREAT.
>> SOMEONE FROM THAT SIDE HAD TO
HAVE DIRECTED IT, BECAUSE IT
WOULD MAKE NO SENSE FOR IT TO
COME FROM ANY PLACE ELSE.
>> RECENTLY, A FORMER PLAYMATE,
KAREN McDOUGLE SAID SHE WAS
PRESENT AT THE VERY GOLF
TOURNAMENT IN 2006 IN LAS VEGAS WHERE YOUR CLIENT, STORMY VEGAS
WHERE YOUR CLIENT, STORMY DANIELS, SAYS SHE MET MR. TRUMP
AND HAD THIS LIAISON WITH HIM.
MISS McDOUGLE SAYS SHE WAS WITH
HIM THE WHOLE TIME.
HAVE YOU TRIED TO FIGURE OUT THE
TIME LINE?
TIME LINE?
SHE SAID IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
POSSIBLE IF HE STAYED AN EXTRA
DAY.
>> FIRST OF ALL, THE GOLF
TOURNAMENT WAS NOT IN LAS VEGAS, IT WAS IN LAKE TAHOE. LAS VEGAS,
IT WAS IN LAKE TAHOE. >> THANK YOU.
>> AND NUMBER TWO, SHE DID NOT
SAY SHE WAS THERE EVERY NIGHT.
NUMBER THREE, WE STAND BY WHAT
MY CLIENT HAS SAID.
I THINK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOUND HER VERY, VERY CREDIBLE.
THERES NO QUESTION THIS
HAPPENED.
HAPPENED.
THE.
>> HAVE YOU TRIED, THOUGH, TO
MATCH UP THE TIME LINE SO THE
TWO STORIES JIVE?
>> WELL, MISS McDOUGLE HAS NOT
SAID MY CLIENT IS NOT TELLING
THE TRUTH.
>> SHE HASNT.
>> AND MY CLIENT HAS NOT SAID
THAT MISS McDOUGLE IS NOT
TELLING THE TRUTH.
THERE IS NO QUESTION THIS
HAPPENED.
MISS McDOUGLE HAD A SEPARATE
ROOM FROM MR. TRUMP.
SHE WASNT THERE EVERY NIGHT.
SHE DOESNT KNOW HOW MANY NIGHTS
MR. TRUMP STAYED THERE.
THERES A WHOLE HOST OF
POSSIBILITIES.
>> ACTUALLY, TALKING ABOUT THIS
INTERVIEW WITH MISS McDOUGLE,
THERE WERE SOME SIMILARITIES
BETWEEN THEIR STORIES.
LET ME PLAY A BIT OF THOSE
INTERVIEWS.
>> HES LIKE, WOW. YOU -- YOU ARE SPECIAL.
>> AND HE SAID, YOURE REALLY
SPECIAL.
SPECIAL.
>> YOU REMIND ME OF MY DAUGHTER, YOU KNOW.MIND ME OF MY DAUGHTER,
YOU KNOW.
HES LIKE, YOURE SMART. BEAUTIFUL.YOURE SMART.
BEAUTIFUL.
>> HE SAID I WAS BEAUTIFUL LIKE HER.E SAID I WAS BEAUTIFUL LIKE
HER.
AND, YOU KNOW, YOURE A SMART
GIRL. >> WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THOSE
SIMILARITIES?
SIMILARITIES?
>> WELL, I THINK THE SIMILARITIES ARE STRIKING, AND I
THINK ITS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR
VIEWERS TO UNDERSTAND THAT MY
CLIENT SAT FOR HER INTERVIEW
WEEKS BEFORE MS. McDOUGLE GAVE
HER INTERVIEW, EVEN THOUGH MS.
McDOUGLES INTERVIEW AIRED
FIRST.
FIRST.
>> LETS TALK ABOUT YOUR CLIENT
NOW.
SHE HAS TOLD HER STORY.
DOES SHE HAVE MORE TO SAY?
DID SHE LEAVE ANYTHING OUT?
>> SHE HAS A LOT OF THINGS TO
SAY.
THE INTERVIEW THAT WAS CONDUCTED
ORIGINALLY WAS ABOUT TWO HOURS
IN LENGTH.
THERE WERE A NUMBER OF DETAILS
AND FACTS THAT WERE LEFT OUT OF THE FINAL PRODUCT, BECAUSE "60F
THE FINAL PRODUCT, BECAUSE "60 MINUTES" ONLY HAS SO MUCH TIME,
OBVIOUSLY.
OBVIOUSLY.
THEYRE TRYING TO TELL A BROAD
STORY IN A VERY FINITE PERIOD OF
TIME.
SHE HAS MANY MORE DETAILS AND
FACTS, MUCH MORE TO SAY, AND
WERE GOING TO GET TO THE BOTTOM
OF WHAT HAPPENED HERE RELATING
TO THE AGREEMENT, WHAT MR. TRUMP
KNEW, AND WHERE THIS MONEY CAME
FROM.
>> IS THERE ANYTHING LEFT OUT OF
HER INTERVIEW?
SOMETHING ON THE CUTTING ROOM
FLOOR THAT YOU FEEL IS RELEVANT
AND COULD SHARE NOW?
>> NOT THAT IM PREPARED TO
SHARE NOW, BUT WHAT I WILL SAY
IS, THAT SHE WAS PREPARED TO
DISCUSS INTIMATE DETAILS
RELATING TO MR. TRUMP.
SHE CAN DESCRIBE HIS GENITALIA,
SHE CAN DESCRIBE VARIOUS CONVERSATIONS THAT THEY HAD THAT
LEAVE NO DOUBT AS TO WHETHER
THIS WOMAN IS TELLING THE TRUTH.
AND IF SHES NOT TELLING THE
TRUTH, LET THE PRESIDENT TAKE TO
THE PODIUM AND CALL HER A LIAR.
LET THE PRESIDENT COME FORWARD
AND SAY IT NEVER HAPPENED.
THERE IS A REASON WHY THIS
$130,000 WAS PAID.
AND IT WASNT PAID BECAUSE SHE
MADE THE STORY UP.
