imaginary. it s like the tooth fairy. you didn t work my children are watching. thank you, congressman. and, obviously, this was a contentious hearing yesterday and it s just the latest in an episode where house democrats are trying to get to the bottom of what was in the mueller report, trying to bring it to life and many of the president s former advisers either refusing to come before the committee or coming before the committee like corey lewandowski did yesterday. and refusing to answer many of their questions. lewandowski also was on cnn s new day this morning and also dodged quite a few questions from our anchors. jim and poppy? lauren fox, thank you for the reporting. let s talk about this and more. eliana plot and former federal prosecutor and cnn legal analyst elliott williams. you guys will answer our questions. thank you for being here. eliana, we ll get to lewandowski in a moment. let s begin with this politico reporting. i find it startling that someone
she is not wrong. but, charlie, if it is that receptive, older audience, they re already buying what she is selling. does that message need to get to more ambitious, progressive voters? of course it does. think what you re starting to see in these polls is a consistent pragmatism among the democrats. i was struck by that poll because i m always adding up the numbers between elizabeth warren and bernie sanders to see how it backs up and you ll notice right now he still has a very solid lead and he s even, even if you add both of them. this is what it does come down to. i agree completely. her point is, look. this is going to be a referendum on donald trump. this is not going to be decided on this proposal or this policy. it is going to be decided on are we going to win this or give four more years to donald trump? i thought it was bracingly honest. well, he s got the polls but he might not have the dollars. politico reporting that he is
close to their homeland. the prospect, when i hear the program could be zeroed out in the coming year, these are the kinds of people who could be left behind. jen, let s talk about the program itself. if you believe that politico reporting that it will get zeroed out in the comes years, the number of refugees already went down, from 45 thousands to 30,000 this year, so how would going to zero impact this worldwide? destroying the refugees resettlement program would have a devastating impact on the lives of thousands of people who we promised to protect. this includes people who are actually already approved to be resettled in the united states. we would be sake you just don t have a chance for safety.
he s doing it against a backdrop where this should never be done. he had a lovely moment but then donald trump, the needy narcissist, came roaring back because he just can t keep a lid on that. frank, i m sure you saw the politico reporting, the house speaker privately told her colleagues on tuesday this, i don t want to see him impeached, i want to see him in prison. i mean, you have to wonder first who leaked it but also, is this trying to, i wonder, thread the needle, which she is echoing, the anger in her party, but then at the same time she realizes that impeachment maybe won t work. that s precisely the case. when you say who leaked it. she knew this would get out or hoped it would get out or made sure it got out. she s trying to say to democrats who are frustrated i m not saying we shouldn t impeach donald trump for lack of
