00:00 And he's bringing it into the state or the city, I guess.

00:04 Look, he's a district attorney where crime is rampant, violent crime is all over the

00:08 place, the city's going to hell.

00:11 And they have many prosecutors in there.

00:13 I couldn't even count them.

00:14 I looked, I looked to me like they had, certainly they have had more than 20 prosecutors sitting

00:21 there over the fact that somebody paid a lawyer and then paying the lawyer, so it was a legal

00:29 expense that somebody happened to be me.

00:32 I didn't do the bookkeeping.

00:33 I didn't even know about it, but a very good bookkeeper marked a legal expense down as

00:40 a legal expense.

00:41 They didn't call it construction.

00:42 They didn't call it building something or concrete or electrical costs.

00:50 They called very simply a legal expense to a lawyer who's a lawyer, not a fixer, who's

00:57 a lawyer.

00:58 Legal expense to a lawyer.

01:01 They called it legal expense.

01:03 They said it was marked incorrectly.

01:07 What else would you call it?

01:09 It's a legal fee or a legal expense, and we called it a legal expense.

01:13 This is what the case is about.

01:16 And it's not about all of the other stuff that you've been seeing, because we're using

01:20 that to attempt.

01:21 It's had no impact because it's so old.

01:27 It's meant to do something to me politically.

01:32 But the good news is the people understand that our poll numbers are the highest they've

01:36 ever been.

01:37 And it's ridiculous that I'm not going to be out campaigning for another week or two

01:42 as these thugs, these corrupt thugs.

01:46 And that includes the judge.

01:48 He should throw this case out.

01:50 This case should go no further.

01:52 Every legal expert, the ones I named and many more, Caleb Rizzi, another one, many of them,

02:01 they came out and they said this case should not go forward.

02:04 It's not a case.

02:05 There's no crime.

02:07 There is no crime.

02:08 And they failed to show a crime.

02:11 This is election interference.

02:13 It all comes out of Washington.

02:16 They have their reps here.

02:17 You know, they have their reps here.

02:18 I'm sure you know that.

02:19 But this all comes out of Washington.

02:24 It's to damage crooked Joe Biden's political opponent, happens to be me.

02:30 And we're leading bigger the polls and the American people get it.

02:34 It's a scam.
