what do you make of this? i actually thought it was revealing and an interesting one that he threw sekulow under the bus. he said this is all about public opinion. if donald trump tries to pardon himself then he will get impeached. if he tries to fire mueller or stop the investigation then he will get impeached. so i think it s very clear what they re doing is they re allowing the president to spout off on twitter. giuliani will come in here and say one thing and he ll probably change his mind and say something else to other news organizations later today or tomorrow. they re trying to confuse things. we have two strategies, one is to discredit everyone involved and two, confuse things so much that the public doesn t know where up is or where down is so when the report ultimately comes out they have an ability to push back and say this was all a big witch hunt. no one really gets it. republican voters, look what we re doing, ignore all of this. we re making a deal with north korea, w
expected to be operational shortly. that statement from the president s lawyer. everybody stand by. much more happening including fireworks on capitol hill. how many times do we do this before we learn this? listen, i honor said you by allowing you to spout off. what you said was not right. two senators fighting over the tax bill. who is right? we will check the facts.
see him sit there in the oval office and very much sound like sort of the bystander president as if he hasn t been in office for the last many months and able to drive a vision and american course in terms of how to treat terrorism. how to treat terrorism. how to reshape the laws. and to spout off in the same way he did as a candidate. if you look at the things he said as a candidate, it s almost word for word. we need to get smarter. we need to get tougher. people are too pc. what that means in terms of what he wants to do still very much unclear. what have they done? you heard his chief of staff i don t know if we have the sound. an sbriinterview on fox news sa he was asked to define extreme vetting. what does that mean? do we have that? we don t. we ll try to get that. what have they done? you want to change these things, there are legislative proposals he could make. they did proposal those cuts.
high? we haven t seen it yet. we haven t seen the price. the problem, of course, there is one thing to be ethical and have moral issues. it s one thing if you have all broken laws. it will put republicans in a bad space if they doesn t have to go to another election and see this person crash and burn. so there is that limit i would say for republicans. yeah, i think the real fair of this post, what if it actually triggers an actual federal investigation? let s remember, this guy twice got elected and was elected as the nominee. so he s got a lot of wiggle room. i m not sure he will be fleeing you. he may be happy to spout off. the price people are willing to pay to disrupt this town. we have yet to see the limit yet. all right, ruth, thank you. up next on this friday the 13th, the end of the skyway to hell.
not to spout off. this is the democratic playbook. you don t let a crisis go without exploitation. hillary clinton did not have her facts right. democrats were trying to exploit this do not have their facts right. he could not have bought this gun as he used it legally. we have plenty of laws. it lets enforce the laws we have before adding to the burdens of the decent people who have every right under the second amendment to possess and hold guns. brian: you might have a problem with my statement but i think there s an opportunity. steve scalise came out and we know his shooting to see him dramatically walk out with his crutches and make that great speech, the 60 minute speech 24 hours ago. he brought everybody together. the president s remarks today for the most part brought everybody together. i m just wondering if he goes out to puerto rico tomorrow and meets with the mayor who was so critical and then comes back wednesday and goes to las vegas, could we be at the point where
