believed that these voting machines needed to be seized to be protected so they could prove fraud. these people are true believers and i have to give credit to my colleagues emma brown and john swain who did the heavy lifting on this pretty bonkers story. giuliani did go to law school, right? he did actually he was a lawyer at one point, a functioning mayor. willie geist, jump in. peter baker, we are just getting in the last few minutes as this conversation goes on an excerpt from maggie haberman, your colleague usa new book. it is not coming out in the fall but it gets to this. i will read what axios printed this morning. while president trump was in the office staff periodically discovered wads of paper clogging toilets in the white house. most believed the president had been flushing documents down his toilet. your thoughts. first of all, everything

coup, there is no line. that s what it is. they re not bending the truth when they say, oh, it wasn t any of this bad stuff. they re just lying. they re plain lying because they can t all be dumb enough not to you know, they re not all marjorie taylor greene. they can t all be dumb enough not to understand what happened because they were there. they saw it. well, you know, willie, the thing is here you look at what s been going on with the republican party and you start to understand why mitch mcconnell came out and was as forceful as he was. here is a party again, we are joking about the gazpacho police, but also all of this just screeching and whining from republicans about, you know, comparing capitol hill cops to nazis because they re just checking on their office to make sure their office is okay. the rnc attacking other
