you and the clinton team used during the campaign, unhinged. how is this different? folks that don t like the direction of the president that may be close to him but don t like what he s doing and using these words or is this different? well, i think this is what actually democrats and republicans warned about. republicans were talking about this in the primary, people needed to take trump at his word, needed to take him seriously and needed to take the threat of him winning seriously. and here we are, this is what we warned about, and as you mentioned we ran a lot of ads on the campaign talking about the potential for the president to use nuclear weapons and how we couldn t trust him to have that power and i think what you re seeing is republicans beginning to truly grapple with this and we re hearing talk about potentially changing the law to limit and curb his powers in military decision making or have other people involved. we saw with the russia sanctions, republicans come toget
publicly. if you think about all of those clips that you just showed where they re praising michael flynn. what has changed since then is flynn has entered a guilty plea because of mueller s investigation. since then, it s even changed a little bit publicly. i m thinking back to the vice president pence interview with cbs where he started to say, well, flynn lied to me, flynn did this. they re already painting him as a liar, because they want to discredit anything that he could say in this investigation to say, look, we couldn t trust him then how could anyone trust him now. not that they think this will play out necessarily in their favor in federal court, what they re saying publicly shouldn t influence a jury. but it could influence the way congress and the public see michael flynn and anything that he may provide. danny cevallos, let me ask you about the piece this morning. impugning or questioning what michael flynn may or anyway not say.
