you don t find prominent democrats who are leading chants with violent overtones like lock her up, cnn sucks, all the attempts to play to people s strongest emotions. i think that everybody on the democratic side would look at that shooter of congressman scalise and absolutely condemn his action and anyone associated with it. so i think that actually is very much of a false equivalence. not that there s perfection on one side and absolute horror on the other, but we re seeing something that is not at all equivalent, where this example of lawlessness more broadly, i m talking about a much broader systematic attempt to disrespect the norms of democracy, to actually disrespect the laws of the united states, and that creates an atmosphere where anything can bubble up and
gold mman sachs, there s an ad, george soros, left wing guy, that s how i see this. [ overlapping speakers ] it s an ad against democrats! we can deny this, deny, deny we all agree that this is all terrible. none of these are healthy people that did these attacks. none of these people the question is whether or not [ overlapping speakers ] when the president uses language like enemy of the people, there are people in america who will take that as a cue to attack.
but we stand up for what s right. you are one of the leaders nationally for impeachment. you ve been running ads now for a long time on tv, traveling the country. i don t hear democratic leaders in congress talking about impeachment. in fact, the opposite. if democrats take the house, and do not ultimately begin impeachment proceedings against president trump, what will you do, work against democrats in let s take a step back, if i could, jake. if you look at what americans think and what people who are registered as democrats think, almost 80% of registered democrats want this president removed from office. if you ask americans broadly, democrats, republicans, and independents, more people are in favor of that than aren t. so i m representing most americans. so in fact, what we have is a movement that is asking for a
antisemitic trope. you think those who attack soros are being anti-semitic? i do. there s a reason he s being singled out. he s a major donor of the democratic party, he s not the only donor. he s not being singled out because of his height or eye color. he s being singled out because he s a symbol. and for those who are in the world of white nationalism, he s a profound symbol of the jewish conspiracy, the well-funded jew ish kabial of bankers and others that are polluting the purity of the american blood stream. congressman, thank you for being here. it could have been so much worse. a suspect arrested for mailing at least 14 bombs. tom stire will be here next. and president trump condemns hate and anti-semitism. how long will the president
to all the horrors with questions about what kind of environment the president is fostering in the nation. unfortunately, the white house has all but abandoned the white house briefing. so we turned to someone who knows president trump well and is one of his most ardent political supporters, anthony scaramucci. he s out with a new book about president trump. anthony, good to see you, as always. this has been a terrible week in the united states with these attacks on jewish americans, black americans, the bombs that were sent to prominent democrats. what is your take? because i m sure you hear it all the time. what do you hear what is your take when people say, president trump has contributed to this polarized and hateful atmosphere. not that he s responsible for any of the individual actions, but that he has contributed to a really ugly period in this country. well, you know, listen, i
