assault on facts, the lack of credibility that we talked about coming out of the white house? i m concerned overall about that. and the information that people are exposed to, and you hear some of the things that people believe, you know. during the campaign well, going back eight years, this absurd theory that barack obama wasn t born in the country. the currency that that received and the people who believed it for that long. and donald trump was a big proponent of that, obviously. yeah. that was just just wrong and just hurtful and terrible. but people still clung to it. and so i yeah, i am concerned. that s just one conspiracy theory out there. there are many. and i talk about it in the book. i hope that there s a marked response. we certainly don t want to move in and try to censor what is
that s something that we can t abandon as republicans. we are decidedly less conservative if we do so. and also, being conservative on policy is just part of it. you have to be conservative in demeanor as well. is he? no. conservative foreign policy ought to be measured and deliberate and sober and that s not what we have. i think it is a tough written book. i want to keep you to it. it focuses on conspiracy theories and fake news. you criticized the false notion that barack obama wasn t born in the u.s. saying what a conspiracy theory becomes a litmus test. you say giving away one s agency to such confusion of fact and fantastic when with unhas power, well, that s truly dangerous. to me the original sin was saying obama was born in kenya
but that s not the republican party we are seeing now. there are very good members of the republican party. there are members of the republican party. ed: last word. barack obama is the one who sowed the seeds of divisiveness in this country. i. he said he wasn t born in this country. i agree it was wrong for him to do that. now the democrats full of hate it is the resistance that is motivated by hate. michael, if you want to make some good in this country, stop your resistance from being full of hate. there is no hate here. ed: kerry, michael, you call the president incompetent and said he may be guilty of money laundering. that s not hate? critique. ed: is newt gingrich returning to washington and joining president trump in the white house? what he just said about all that speculation. and turns out money can buy happiness. it depends on what you spend it on. the science is. in we have got the details
charges that he should be impeached for a variety of reasons including the fact he said he wasn t born in united states. the fact you are transgendered people to use the bathrooms of their choice. it is still too far. clayton: final thought. just because you certain personality traits that irritate the democrats, this is not the vice president, not the cabinet. this is really undermining the respect of the opposite deserves. transfer thank you for joining us. appreciate it. thanks to dr. marc siegel, jeannie and joe. abby, over to you guys. abby: other headlines we re following. a fisherman charged with killing his wife claims that she fell overboard. 38-year-old christopher leclerc called the coast guard claiming that his wife accidentally fell overboard after not feeling well during a boat trip on lake erie. investigators say they now believe he pushed her off the boat, but are still looking for a body. leclair was having affair at the time. he now faces criminal homicide
country. this is how this works. every president gets criticized. every president ends ul feeling like he is the only one who do. he s the only one giving realtime venting to it and basically put himself on par with everybody else. that can work in some circumstances, but it doesn t really work here. to me, it s so interesting, kirsten, that the president s spokespeople are defending him as being strong and tough, when this seems like the exact opposite of being tough. tough is actually leading. tough is having thick skin. tough is actually doing your job, not all these other distractions. not watching cable news in the morning and going after the, you know we re talking about basic cable here. yeah. i think often the hardest thing is to not respond to something, like maggie was talking about with president obama not responding to being told that he wasn t born in this country. and so, you know, i just i don t see this as a proportional
