Wtf are you talking about? A video that's part of plea deal is nothing?
Basically only portions of the interviews were released. What is in what was released is not great for Trump, but there's nothing terrible for him in there. This suggests they were leaked by the defense who recently obtained the videos. The thought is since it's just a portion of these videos, that the parts that were not leaked have more damning info on Trump. It wouldn't have made sense for the prosecutor to have accepted very nice plea deals if all that's in these shortened videos is what they were giving them. But they're confidential, prosecution can't discuss what's in them until the trial, so we won't know for sure until then.
Oh I'm sure there is some really damning stuff on there but this part looks like nothing. Hence why they released this part only. I say release the whole thing. Maybe we will get some "lumpy pillow" rants out of it.
