it is not a debate within the republican party over whether or not the 2020 election was legitimate or whether it was stolen, at least in the way that pence is stepping in here. he was stepping in to say, i couldn t overturn it. it s not on me. he was not stepping in to say, we shouldn t even be talking about all the illegitimacy. he, back in march, i think it was, talked about the fact that there were some fishy things and a lot of questions over the results and all of that. he s not fully stepping out in terms of the main thrust of the republican party and its argument, that is still very much happening and alive. i think it s note able that trump didn t go after pence as forcefully as i think he might have. maybe that has to do with we ll put up let s put up another statement. the former president put out this statement, you kind of need a little bit of a chart to figure out what is going on here, but he says, i just saw mike pence s statement on the fact that he had no right
nap is the word on former this. peep in kiev and benchmarks that president jimmy carter. have to be met before security assistance is disbursed to the 95-year-old had an operation guarantee ukraine is not using on his brain just this morning. it for corrupt purposes. we talk to dr. sanjay gupta president trump didn t go through the official channels because it had nothing to do about recovery ahead. with actual corruption. if it did he would have used and and considering jumping into the 2020 fray. a brand new poll out of iowa not abused u.s. government resour resources. shows a surprising, new top to the next point also stood tier. out to you, republican s claim of no conditionality. momo statp memo states, showed no conditionality or pressure on ukraine to investigate the president s political rivals. t-mobile s newest signal reaches farther than ever before. what does no conditionality mean and your answer? a. was not dependent on b. with more engineers, more towers, more cove
and. when you look at that and what zelensky said. the first thing he said to the president the other day at the u.n. it is very telling. just watch. i want to thank you for invitation to washington. you invited me. but i think, i m sorry, but i think you forgot to tell me the date. but i think in the nearest future. they will tell you the date. they know are before us. it sounds like he s joking but at the same time when you read the texts actually it seems like he was say, hey, listen. i told you d give you what you wanted. when am i going to be at the white house? exactly. the ukrainians are desperate for this meeting. they are desperate for the legitimacy. they were desperate when he was elected and inaugurated. they wanted the preponderate to come every. trump didn t go. then they wanted the vice president to go over. he ultimately didn t end up
where he gave an order and it wasn t carried out. nixon ordered people to cover up. he ordered the end to an investigation. trump didn t go that far. he was afraid but he did. didn t he call mcghan and say call me when it s done. fire mueller. it didn t happen. because mcghan made the decision to not. not trump, trump was ready to go there. and there were people who didn t follow nix anticipaon s . but i think he went further and that saved him in the end. there was a tweet from the president that stuck out for me today that the voters may demand he have another term in office. we are seeing it here on the screen. people may demand he have would they demand i stay longer. bob, how do you read that? is that him saying, pelosi has been quoted as saying privately she wonders it s motivated her thinking he may not accept the results of the next
think about the contrast between donald trump and john f. kennedy. john kennedy used his father s connections to get medically cleared to go to war. donald trump used his father s connections to lie about bone spurs so he wouldn t have to serve. and there s not, it, wasn t like there s an empty seat in vietnam because trump didn t go. someone went in his place. i d like to meet that american patriot who the took donald trump s place in vietnam. someone who was are processed through the draft board in queens where donald trump s draft was deferred through that. and that s the point. that s why i kept going back to iraq. i didn t agree with the war. in fact, i was an outspoken critic of it. but i didn t want anyone to go in my place. and i knew that every single day in iraq being there on the ground on the frontlines i was able to effect how that war was fought much more so than being back home. and you know, that s what veterans are all about.
