[laughter] so i remember donald trump going to a meeting of european leaders, pointing at angela merkel and saying you re making yourself wholly dependent on russian gas, you are making a mistake. and they all thought what a horrible man, oh, isn t he ruled, isn t he vulgar, isn t he awful. i tell you what, he was absolutely right. and so europe s in a mess because they cannot put effective sanctions on putin
he was a ponderous judge when biden appointed him a.g., wasn t he? yeah. listen, i couldn t agree with you more on that. speaking of judges, you know who might be more than a ponderous judge these days? clarence thomas on the supreme court. it is quite remarkable. i think you d agree with me that the same voice on the supreme court who was opposed to having white house records handed over to the january 6th investigative committee is married to an anti-democratic pro coup trump supporter who is messaging with the white house chief of staff on january 6th. what makes it more difficult, going back to your point, the tepid response from some democrats like nancy pelosi who didn t join other democrats who have been calling on thomas to resign or be impeached or recuse himself from cases because of the glaring conflict of interest, i mean, can you imagine if this shoe was on the other foot and republicans controlled congress? with a liberal judge presenting such a glaring conflict of
