either republican, democrat, independent or whatever their political party. and i strongly disagree with the characterization that women are oppressed and by nature of that they should naturally vote for another group of people that are oppressed that s not that s just not how politics, would. as a republican, a democrat or whatever your political leanings is, you should vote for people who represent those policies. i m a republican. i support this president. i voted for this president. i did so because of his policies. i do not agree with his tone and ten or. i ve been on your show dozens and dozens of times discounting his behavior, his tone, his tactics, the things he as a about women, his denigrating women and i don t tolerate that, but his policies are what i stand sta for. isn t that part of the policies? no, they re not, don. the they re separate. look, i worked really hard for a capped that had the character befitting of this office. unfortunately he didn t win the will o
i forget. mississippi. in mississippi. so then scott, in your estimation, what is going on here then? as i asked charles, is it ignorance? he said it doesn t matter. it s part of a system. why would people even say these things. as you said they re a dump ass. that s your words. what has been unleashed in our society recently that people feel it s okay to say these things? i m not asking as the president. i m asking generally. i don t like it. it strikes me people are saying things thoughtlessly. they are not considering the ramifications of their words. they are not considering, frankly if you re in public life, politics, government, everything you re saying is being recorded most likely and then can be rebroadcast and so you re not just saying it to the person in front of you. you re saying it to a whole audience of people that could be hurt by what you re saying. you re not just hurting yourself or your body.
gendered oppression, that because they are oppressed as women, that that oppression will allow for them to ally and to sympathize with other dispossessed and disempowered peoples in. the nation. but my research actually shows that they long had a deep investment in white supremacy and not only did they benefit from it, but they participated in its construction and its perpetuation. not just in the context of slavery or the colonial period but well after slavery was over. you said that it was overwhelming. it s 52%. it is a majority but it s 52%. it s not overwhelming but it is a majority. what i meant by overwhelming was emotionally overwhelming and the response that we yeah. alice, why do you think that white women support president trump? do you think they identify more with being white and being female? she just said that. when we re talking about the political arena, voters women and men, identify themselves as
on his own terms on his own schedule. he s relatively far along in this investigation. he s known that this change in leadership was coming. jeff sessions has long been headed for the exit and even whitaker himself was floated as the next person to oversee the investigation months ago. so mueller certainly was not surprised when any of this happened last week. and we ve actually seen whitaker take some steps that make it seem for now at least that he is going to abide by the strong norms and procedures of the justice department. under a tremendous amount of pressure over the last week he newspapered this week that he would seek an ethics consultation with the ethics attorneys at the justice department over whether he would actually be allowed to oversee the russia investigation given his an apparent conflicts of interest both in personal relationships and public statements against the mueller investigation. this president will not like that if that s indeed the case. so but i got to
babe in ways that that are more consistent with the position they re in as attorney general. we haven t heard anything from rosenstein of concern. it s a little bit like the judge today in the cnn case trump much appointee. when you re in that position, things look a little different. john, president trump says he s personally writing his responses to mueller, not his attorneys. would any lawyer, no lawyer would let their client especially one who is the president of the united states submit their own answers to an investigation, especially like this one, correct? absolutely, don. it was a preposterous claim. what he did in putting it out there was he took ownership of it. and i m sure his lawyers were unhappy with that. that may be one of the robes for the delay. but maggie haberman who is very well plugged in with the white house and the legal team put the lie to it within minutes after he said it. his attorney rudy giuliani told the washington post yesterday that some of mue
