the unelected bureaucracies, the agencies and the executive branch, are morebr powerful than the elected president. that s what i m concluding. that s the opposite of democracy,y, isn t it? it absolutely is and when you saw this new york times story that broke the people said here we go once again, russia, trump, now we know the fbi the same fbi led by the way has had people fired for cause, by the way, from the top reaches. at least one former senior fbi agent may be facing criminal prosecution for lying about how he s conducting himself. so there s been bad behavior at the fbi but they are pointing to trump and saying because. i remember this is just a small group at the top of the organization. this is not the rank-and-file. tucker: right. they are saying trump was acting against out national security interest of the united states. so they needed to investigate him because of that. meanwhile, firing james comey is just good business , that s a good idea based on everything
tucker: where are the t chamber of commerce on this? they are opposed. chamber of commerce, typical k street big business are not going to stand in anything that makes them more difficult to move jobs out of america to places where jobs are cheap. tucker: is that their argument? yes. tucker: interesting. of the democrats who are against it, their argument is what?ns well, you know, i think, just make anti-trump i arguments rather than arguments as to the policy of reciprocal trade. and we have yet to see really what the democratic strategy is on trade. trump has tried to make better deals. he wants the flexibility to make those deals. less of the globalist multi-national arrangements, more bilateral trade where we actually have enforcement powers. democrats have largely stood against that, even thoughte these are policies in the past democrats are supported because unions have supported them and workers have supported them. tucker: yeah, like, 20 minutes ago. it s interes
heardes was, let s see, trump denies he worked for russia, therefore he must have. meanwhile, former director of national intelligence, james clapper did everything he could to deplete the public confidence in the holders of that office. he s very confident though that trump is a spy, because he s not really sure why but he s very confident. watch this. it is amazing, it s explosive. but it s not really surprising. it just seems to me that the fbi taking its counterintelligence responsibility seriously would want to look into what s going on here. and it is their influence, whether witting or unwitting, by the russians, over president trump and, you know, in the intervening year and a half or so, his behavior hasn t done much, at least in my mind, to allay that concern. i think the fbi was justified. tucker: that s the man who lied to the congress
months ago interest in children, said directly i m serving out my term, not running for president but she was already planning to run then, right? you can plan to run for president and even run for president and no you re not going to be the nominee or president so then you know you re going to serve your term senate. tucker: that s one way to know. so i think she s being honest. i think she has many if not most of these people who have already announced or say that they are going to do it, even elizabeth warren as i mentioned on your show, does not expect to be the nominee. if they expect to be in a cabinet. these are people, remember, these were people who thought they were going to be in hillar hillary s cabinet. so now they re all discombobulated, thought they were going to be in the white house and now this is the next step in order to get there. so hillary s failure has really opened this door wide that nobody thought they would see for another generation. and so look, the
should immediately and publicly state his apparent wish to withdraw from nato so he can be promptlypp impeached, convicted and removed from office. unquote. in other words, talking about leaving nato isn t l simply unwise, according to our leaders, it s an t impeachable offense. lot of famous and powerful people in washington think this. watch. withdrawing from nato, even discussing discussion about withdrawing from nato, i think, it would be disastrous for security. i think that act would be so destructive to our country, it would be a ground for some profound effort by our part, whether it s impeachment or the 25th amendment. he can t do that to this country and i don t believe that he can do it without senate ratification. tucker: did you catch that? the 25th amendment. in other words, according to saying member of congress, someone there right now.
