voters rather than appeal to the voters. join this democratic neighborhood with this one way over here. cide on this, no one is, n t right? you re not going to pass legislation in this house to address this. you re not going to no. and, again, self-interest. legislators at the state level that do this, it is their own political survival, so it is part of the political process, it is going to remain intensely partisan and political. that s why i think so many people are looking to the supreme court to weigh in. imagine a congress person, you know, voting for something that will make their job less likely. david chalian, thank you very much for walking us through this. still to come, former trump campaign associate roger stone, he s now admitting to meeting with a russian operative who is offering dirt on hillary clinton for a whole lot of money. what could this mean for the ongoing special counsel investigation?
yeah. unfortunately i think that s sad, but i think it may be true. and i think also what we re seeing here tonight with the different interviews going on, not only with the clips of the president, buts hi newly hired counsel, mr. giuliani, there s a lot of situations that he s putting his client at risk. and honestly the way they re going back and forth and commenting on the different incide incidents, especially on the firing of the former director jim comey, i think they re putting themselves really at risk. because that is very, very close to bordering, especially with the intent, when you look at that of obstruction. so if uh you re robert mueller or his top lieutenants, how do you look at that interview on fox news tonight with rudy giuliani, and do you view it as giuliani apparently intended it to be a kind of public act of negotiation over this meeting? yeah. i think you re right. i think there was some aspects of that. i don t think it was willy

what s frustrating is we know these things. it s a limit to what we can do about it. also nuclear weapons. i was just about to say that is, boy, if that isn t a reminder. it s not a reminder to any rogue state in the world what s the best way to prevent the united states or any other world power for punishing you for mistreating its people, have nukes. you saw where the president was motivated because he learned of a chemical gas attack against incide innocent people. there s no real action that can sort of check box and say i responded. i drew a red line. with north korea it s more tricky.
