the republican party has never been stronger. man, we have never been more united. but we are going to eliminate elections, cancel primaries because we are so damn strong and so united, we re going to cancel primary elections. david, that doesn t sound like a strong party. that doesn t sound like a strong president. lo look, this is all about trump. kevin mccarthy and all of my former colleagues, they are scared to death of this president. what an absolute shame. what explains that? as you look in the eyes of your former colleagues, congressmen and congresswomen. what explains how aoe no, ma amored how subservient they have become to this president. they are afraid of him. they are afraid of his voters. look, i believe trump is unfit. i believe he lies virtually every time he opens his mouth. he is a threat to the country. most of my colleagues privately feel the same way about trump.
going to jump in just because we say, well, it was iran and we need to take action and move and pressure them. especially as the u.n. general assembly is about to start. i think that s one of the pieces that is so disturbing about this administration is that our credibility has just sunk. and when our closest allies hear the secretary of state saying, it s iran, and they just keep quiet, that is a statement about where we are right now with this presidency and with our role in the world. i would just say i think in europe, where i normal live spend my time, there is a general sense that this crisis with iran was created not by iran. it was created by president trump. he s the one who pulled out of the nuclear agreement. he s the one who said i can get so much better deal than obama. he supplied maximum pressure to iran when in fact, iran was implying exactly to the letter of the agreement. and everybody knew it. so when they now say, oh, look

it s treason to your heritage not to support him. over 100 articles praising him. when i wrote an article in may of 2017, before charlottesville, denouncing trump for coddling white supremacists, andrew england defended donald trump. they came after me and fabricated tweets i was a terrorist and i had to sue them in federal court for defamation and for the death threats. president trump s anti-muslim bigotry to retweeting from the uk katie hopkins. in the uk she s an anti-muslim bigot who called for a holocaust against muslims. she s banned from south africa for her racist words. she shares the stage with holocaust deniers. that subset knows who she is. americans don t know. and this donald trump is going to get worse between now and 2020. it s not lost on a lot of people. his wife is an immigrant herself. what are the chances melania
on capitol hill, denouncing trump, and detailing his alleged crimes. he is a racist, he is a con man, and he is a cheat. the president of the united states thus wrote a personal check for the payment of hush money as part of a criminal scheme. people have asked me about whether mr. trump knew about the release of the hacked documents, the democratic national committee e-mail ahead of time. and the answer is yes. mr. trump s personal lawyers reviewed and edited my statement to congress about the timing of the moscow tower negotiations before i gave it. i am in constant contact with the southern district of new york regarding ongoing investigations. do you think we need to review his financial statements and his tax returns in order to compare them? yes, and you would find it at the trump org. cohen s testimony triggered a
