[ applause ] and as i said before, you lay the story out like parts on a lawn and then put it together and say this is how the engine works. are you at all frustrated that the present scandal is so damn simple? let me lay out the parts. trump called ukraine, and i m done. exactly. yeah, you can t even sleuth your way through it. in order to find out that trump called ukraine what we had to do is ask trump, did you call ukraine? and he said, yes, here s the evidence. it wasn t even like, who done it, how can we prove it. it s over. there is stuff to explain, like why did this happen in ukraine and why did he think he could get that and what s going to happen to ukraine? there s other contextual stuff that i could make long segments about. but he did it, he admitted it, and he s going to be impeached for it.
no? exactly. the original sin and betrayal of the trump president city is all about russia. mike and i wrote a book about this. but if you look at the conversation that came out this week with zelensky, people focus on the biden aspect of this, give me dirt on joe biden. but the first thing he asked zelensky about, very first thing, was there is this crazy right wing conspiracy theory that is deep in the sub, sub, sub basement in the world of paranoiranoid conservatives. and that is that the server wasn t really hacked by the russians and for some reason the dnc gave the server to ukraine somehow to an oligarch there to hide it from the fbi. it is complete lir nuts. but it is all about dismissing the russia investigation. and why ask trump want to do that? because he knows that he is guilty. we saw it happen with manafort
lot is if you elect me president, i m going to cut taxes every year so i think this was harkening back to the campaign of keeping the tax message going and look, i don t actually even know what the 10% tax is. i did a lot of and everybody s kind of tight-lipped but i think the politics of this are good. the democrats are running around the country saying, elect us and we ll repeal the president s tax cut of last year, the big one and now republicans say, look, we want to cut taxes, they want to raise them. that s not a place for republicans to be politically. what s your take? i mean, if republicans keep the senate, who knows what s going to happen with the house, it is possible that there will be some movement and you might be able to pick off some democrats. i think it s very unlikely at this point. as far as we can tell, trump may have just made this up on the fly. when the no. i know, unheard of. when kevin was asked by reporters today about this tax cut, what analysis di
go down to mar-a-lago and bill the government millions of dollars, why can t you be sending your security guards to look for lotion or used mattresses. this is problems that will continue to happen. let s be clear about what worked here. democrats have struggled with a lot of big statement of faoft t. you went after the soft target, if you will, on the used mattress on the house floor. this seems to have worked. you may have a long list of problems with him, including environmental issues, but there was something about that particular incident that ended the swampiness in a way that others have not. this should have happened months ago. the threshold for this president to hold his men and women in his cabinet accountable is very, very large. when we discover he was renting at such a low rate, a room from an energy lobbyist that actually is lobbying the epa, that would
trump who spent his life as a media personality and an apparent democrat had taken of the republican party in 2016. now, he did that by squaring off against and ultimately coopting the gop s most powerful megaphone fox news, battling megyn kelly, also willing to clash with roger ailes and rupert mur dodoch. trump s triumph with fox ended with roger ailes out, and he was advising trump s campaign, ask trump commanding loyalty at that channel. donald trump knows transactional relationships, he went on to hire numerous fox personalities, some of those whom trump has not hired are the most influential, consider sean hannity who first recommended this news tonight, first pushing the hiring of bill shine, hannity arranging private meetings for them at mar-a-lago. then he used his own show to
