The bombshell report released by Stormy Daniels attorney Michael Avenatti on Tuesday afternoon could prove the conspiracy between the [Trump] campaign and the Russians, according to former Watergate prosecutor Nick Ackerman.
Ackerman made the remarks during an appearance on MSNBCs The Beat, just after Avenatti released the report alleging that Trumps fixer Michael Cohen was reimbursed by a Putin-linked Russian oligarch for the hush money he paid to Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.
Do you see any potential criminal liability? asked host Ari Melber.
Ackerman noted that the information in Avenattis report looked like it came straight from a bank record and based on that information, The crimes involved here are numerous.
This could prove the conspiracy between the campaign and the Russians, he said, adding that the bank records could provide evidence of conspiracy at multiple points during the campaign, including involving the hacked emails and the use of social media to suppress Democratic voters.
