rebecca hundreds and hundreds of thousands of people have been back on the streets today is really turning into another violent evening we ve seen news very liberally on the streets with that said blue dye which is so often used here in hong kong designed to sustain and mock anybody who is hits in an attempt to try and identify the parts arrest them later and then of course tear gas as well round after round of tear gas canisters have been fired at protesters now this approaches did begin very peacefully we had people of all ages on the streets but then as is the pattern at these protests police moved in to clear the protesters out because after all this is an unauthorized protest left behind the young people mainly who are on the front lines who ve been engaged in these clashes with police we what we ve really seen in the last few hours is that a cat and mouse game between the police and protesters is one follows another to
new tonight, president trump attacking the chairman of the house intelligence committee, adam schiff, who led today s hearing. trump calling the investigation a scam, calling schiff, quote, little adam schiff, with ds. out front man, who used to hold schiff s position, mike rogers. also the host of declassified: untold stories of american spice. chairman rogers, you were once the republican chair of this committee. yeah. what do you make of trump s choosing to do this today, sort of mock, try to make it light, make it personal in this way? you know, listen, it s hard to explain sometimes what the president does in circumstances like this. he would have been better off to kind of take the statesman role and talk about other things and try to move on past this particular event. but attacking it, he just fuels the fire for those people who think hey, there must be something here. those people are going to say
calculated plolitical strategy. there is a long-range strategy here. it s deride and conquer. deride, mock, make us a laughing stock. this week he said we re a laughing stock internationally. that s a little bit of projecti projection. i think our president is the person who is laughed at internationally. but then he called us a joke. the idea is to do to the press what trump and his team have managed to do pretty much to the democratic house of representatives in mocking them. remember back in may when william barr was with nancy pelosi at an event and he said, have you brought the handcuffs h madam speaker and then laughed, mocking their abilities to back their threats of citing him for

diplomacy but he is taking the response seriously and taking rejection like a snowflake. canceling a planned bilateral visit to denmark. the prime minister s statement that it was absurd, it was absurd idea, it was nasty, don t say what an absurd idea that is. they can t treat the united states with a statement how absurd. when they say it was abzurd and it was said in a very nasty, very sarcastic way. okay. let s just deal with this real quick. we know it s how he operates. attack, troll, mock, bully and indig nantly clain other people are bullying him be it the danish prime minister or the media or his own aides from michael cohen to scaramucci who recently shared this cartoon online to ca tour the five stages of employment at the trump white house from walking in excited right there in the maga hat on your head to trump
