suggest this absolutely won t stop the president from continuing to use it as a political tool against someone that could be the democratic nominee in 2020. i want to point out that donald trump announced his presidential run in june of 2015. fast forward four years for the 2020 presidential election, that would be june of 2019. that s less than a year away. so we re closer than everyone thinks to the 2020 presidential election and sort of when things start ramping up and candidates start announcing intentions. i think the timing is no mistake. obviously interesting that the boston globe were asking for the documents for sich years to prove the claims she was making. she finally turned them over now which was very heartening to see. especially given that senator warren is someone who, you know, she rarely takes questions from reporters on capitol hill if ever. so the fact she consented to this why do you think they delayed so long if they exonerated her
islam hates it. but it s not only that. i have interviewed countless muslim-american candidates they re not running because they re muslim. they re running to fight against bigotry, because they have an affirmative plan which is very of progressive. they re running as democrats in a very progressive plan so i think trump on some levels made them come out. they re fighting against anti-muslim bigotry, sexism of donald trump. not just being muslim but that s part of it. what s the correlation and we should note that you re featured as well in this article. nbc news article that i referenced earlier. what is the correlation between some of the points that dean just outleaned suggesting that you know donald trump has done muslims a favor in this country with his policies and the rise of bigotry to the rise of muslim-american candidates. is there a common theme among those we are seeing? i think relatively speaking i think, yes, it is correct. i said that in the piece.
so the fact that trump himself is not on the ballot suggests to me that technically there is no violation whatsoever to making charges relating to the russia investigation. but to the extent that activity could have some impact on the midterm elections i think it is something that mueller will think about and discuss with his team. but if any charges come, you can bet that giuliani and company will pounce on it and try to spin this into a political political investigation. i think the other thing they ve tried to do is to slow walk the sitdown interview with president trump and robert mueller. this has given them an opportunity to say they can t do that in the 60-day period. the point she is making, the fact that excuse me, lynn, the point that barbara is making about the political nature of what giuliani and the trump administration are trying to do with the mueller investigation, there is a new washington post /abc news poll which finds that 63% of voters support the
maybe in the mainstream than but correct me if i m wrong. he also suggested that the 8-0 decision was he suggested that perhaps it could have been overturned and didn t necessarily agree with it. that the tapes should have been handed over. that s really not. if you go back and look at the panel he was on, he was discussing and defending the court s approach to investigating the president. and if you re disagreeing with the court, if you re disagreeing with him now, you look at nixon. maybe we should do that. i don t think we should do that. then went on multiple times over the course of the next 10, 20 years to call united states v. nixon a great moment in the jew dish ric judiciary. that is the kind of judge we have. justin walker, we have to leave it at that. en into yashgs thank you as well. andrew, stick around for another
exquisite, exhaustive, complete story that nailed down the issue of her ethnicity and what she said when. so what president trump says about senator warren and her claims is not true the way he says it. now politically will that stop him from saying anything? no. now to your question does this mean she s getting ready to test the waters for a 2021? she s been testing the waters. this is putting going from toe deep to maybe close to the ankle deep. so, yes, that s how i interpret this. okay. fair enough. andrew, i know that warren warned the president s attacks against her as a badge of honor. she has in the past simply dismissed the pocahantas reference. why do you think she chose to address it now? i mean, i think it begs the question is she anticipating that this could be something of a vulnerability for her and so she wants this to be out there now in the public record? absolutely. and i think lynn is right to
