condemned the statement and i know a lot of those republicans and it doesn t surprise me that they would come out and say this is wrong. what surprises me are the other republicans. but kate, i think it s all fear. i think this is moment where they just duck their heads down, let s not get in a problem with the president, let s not insult him and get ourselves in electoral problems. let s just go with the flow. the problem is that this flow is changing the party and it s tarnishing the brand for a long, long time in the future. there s something else that is becoming kind of a brand of the president that i want to ask you about. you have worked you have fought throughout your career for comprehensive immigration reform. i want to get your take on the latest move by the trump administration on this. that migrants now have to apply for and be denied asylum somewhere else before they can apply for asylum at the u.s.
if it s against the policy, which it is, they should have known the rules. when you re law enforcement, for instance, you lose some of your first amendment rights because you always represent the agency that you work for, the government, whatever, so you ve got to be very careful. these were disgusting what they wrote. terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible, and they should face whatever penalties they have. however, there are 58,000 employees under customs and border protection, and my guess is it s a small group that are writing these kinds of disgusting things and that should not broadly paint a bad picture of what the men and women do every day under very difficult circumstances. just like someone at cnn were to write something stupid and it got out there, would you or i be blamed for that? should everyone in this room or in this building? no. sometimes it s a very bad employee that does things that tarnishing. except they say a few bad apples does, in fact, ruin the bunch. you h
the private banking side, as far as we know, those loans have not defaulted. what we don t know for sure because trump is in the white house and we have no disclosures about this. they probably did make money off that. the problem is while they re earning money on managing his assets and on interest rates on the loans, it s a huge self-inflicted, you know, tarnishing of their reputation. deutsche bank has become synonymous, i think, in the united states with money laundering for russians an lending to donald trump. after president trump won, how did deutsche bank handle all this? panic. and the first thing they did was assess a report, a number of reports, actually, on how they got into the mess. it turns out people at the board level and some of the senior executives aren executives hadn t realized donald trump was a major client. even though they were making promotional videos with him. he was there swinging a golf club? there s a certain amount of
get smarter. i think these two people are particularly dangerous, perhaps more dangerous than the president. because the president is, for all his peccadillos, in plain sight. jared and ivanka are kind of in disguise, as we ve talked about. and the damage that the danger and havoc they ve played with the protocols that have been put in place in this government, in our government for decades to keep us safe have in and out been undone. an extensive report from the new york times into deutsche bank s relationship with president trump. details that the bank saw multiple red flags over a two-decade relationship that included bankruptcies and inflai inflated assets, yet they still gave him more than $2 billion to finance his real estate projects. the problem is, while they re actually earning money on managing his assets and interest rates on the loans, it s a huge self-inflicted tarnishing of their reputation. deutsche bank has been synonymous, i think, in the
know, he became a super star for american television, right through the per sis tans and attitude and everything else. sure. so he would take those qualities to make the most of this speern. i m sure what a lot of people want to here is how he feels about the crime he was convicted of. right. you re not hearing that. let s look at the other side. he was convicted of a felony, three felonies, indecent sexual assault. he was and must be a registered sex offender also determined to be a sexually violent predator. he has to take at least one in prison because of that title he has. there is another side to all of this. it is tarnishing to him. sure. this is very uplifting for
