impeachable offenses whether a republican. or prosecutable. or prosecutable. whether or not republicans would derivative articles of impeachment based on that that s a different question. but there is already there there. the remedy for whatever there there you think is already there is firing of people, as happened with flynn or a midterm election. knows are the remedies we have for that. the next one is impeachment. i do think there is plenty of loose talk about ways to remove a president. i think that has not just plilk political backlash potential it s unhealthy for the country because there were many people who did elect this president and they did it for legit reasons i disagreed with their conclusion but didn t feel they had a better option and this is what happened particularly on the blue wall space that the democrats lost. injury making those folks feel more alienated by jumping to the punch is a very bad idea. this is another self-inflicted white house thing. they re l
appointment is something that is going to take some time in terms of the investigation, looking at an investigation that will quote, years. is this the beginning of a very long process? about. i don t know. this is the reputation that these special counsel things have. remember ken starr started investigating whitewater and meandered his way to years until we ended up with the monica lewinsky case and they had the ability to go out on tangents and look for what was most proce prosecutable. but that fwhauswas in a scandal you had to hunt to find the scandal. given the annumount of bombshel that have dropped, i wonder if this will be as long and slow. so easy and short work for the former director? i think there is a lot of material that can go on, but you i m not convinced that we will have to wait a long time for
it s going to be litigated in washington, d.c. how do you deal with that in instant history? i think you read the words. we re telling the story of the people who knew her inside the campaign. we didn t talk to many outsiders. this is their story. this is something that they wanted out there. it s very easy to deflect and say that this is all russia and this is all comey. i think as john and i said earlier, it s part of that story and that narrative. i think her campaign was much more flawed as we detail in this book. all you have to do is basically read these words in these chapters and that will obviously play out. it s important to remember a couple of things looking at these questions. number one, with comey, that letter at the end, this is still related to the amendment issue. while jim comey did not have a prosecutable crime that he could go after, i don t think there were very many people that would say her setting up the server
a crime. what s the crime? well, the question is whether the false statements of mike flynn in any form were prosecutable. the fbi said they weren t going to charge him and they didn t think he was misleading, which is why i m asking the other question. the fbi gave the white house such great cover to keep mike flynn. they said we heard the same story he says he told mike pence. we don t think he was misleading it. he might may have forgotten it. he didn t think the election was a big part of the conversation with the russian ambassador. he was innocent. we re not charging him. we don t think he was misleading. yet the white house chose to get rid of him. that s why i m asking the question. it s a good question, chris. let me make a few observations. first, the fbi hasn t said anything publicly about this. there have been reports of what the fbi is saying privately, but we don t know and don t have a public record about what the fbi s position is, and second, it s not the fbi s p
whatever legislation they come up with. president trump shaking up the political world. that president obama and his predecessor had it trump tower wiretapped during the presidential campaign. they did not offer any proof of that claim which if it did happen would have required finding probable cause. i think the whole time it was thrown around very loosely. and by a lot of people. if to understand exactly understand exactly what they re talking about. i have never heard that allegation made before by anybody there certain kinds are certain kinds of information that cannot be given to congress that is classified or that can t be released. and there is a prosecutable sort of way of doing things that you don t comment on ongoing investigations. there is a new development of fbi development.
