what i think it does show about joe biden, though, is that he s rusty, and out of touch and out of sync with the electorate. it seems there may be a problem when you re not winning over former members of your own administration, no? right. i mean, there have been a lot of people pointing out that obama alumni are not flocking to the side of vice president biden. i think that he is not going to have a coronation. he very well could end up being the nominee, as joe points out, does the best with older voters. and the polling numbers shows he does best in a crowded field among african-american voters. the person who wins among african-american voters is most likely sustained to be the nominee. this doesn t mean it s going to be easy and doesn t mean he s going to be a phenomenon like barack obama when he bested hillary clinton in the fight for the nomination. this is going to be hard. he s going to be challenged. i think that the other candidates like bill de blasio,
stonewalling, destruction of that very basic relationship between our co-equal branches of government. and so i think the only thing that we can do is to start that impeachment inquiry. i think we have to be very clear with the american people, this doesn t mean the president is going to get impeached tomorrow, it means we start a process of hearings to get more information and to decide what we have in front of us and whether or not it will precede in formal impeachment proceedings. i think the american public has to understand this doesn t mean he s going to be gone tomorrow, we re starting an inquiry. a final question on a piece of information before another committee but it bears on these in terms of questions of obstruction. questioning of michael cohen in which he asserts that jay sekulow, the president s attorney, told him to lie about trump tower moscow. is that a big deal to your mind? i think all of these

justice department sought to shut down. he s saying that robert mueller let him off the hook. that s a key question he was smart to answer right off the bat because you wouldn t want the american pub look to say tonight can we just this report because it was under the purview of the justice department. he want thad transparency. you see that throughout the letter. he also said he s going to consul with rod rosenstein and bob mueller. robert mueller ends his work here doesn t mean he s disappearing as a human being. congress, of course, can call on him to testify. exactly. i guess what i m saying here is the whole question, the orig origin, happens with the firing. it s a factual question of what happened. what happened during the
now over. president trump remains silent on this. that doesn t mean he s been out of sight today. we begin with adam perez who has been tracking this. it seems like people might have a reason to cancel the sunday plans. that s right. they spent more than nine hours working with rob rosenstein and a small group of aides. so far they re the only ones who have seen what is in robert mueller s he report that was submitted yesterday. according to the justice department. now, what bill barr is trying to do is come up with a distillation of summary that he will send to congress. what that looks like, we don t know.
