corruption, what he s saying is i have an absolute right to invite foreign countries to interfere in the u.s. election on my behalf, which is again the law and is against that s exactly what the founding fathers feared. that s why they wrote the impeachment clause in the constitution, to avoid the kind of behavior that trump is now engaged in. let s get back to these to what s happening with the possibility of this second whistleblower, okay, ryan? what could we learn beyond the text messages, beyond the transcript, beyond what max was just talking about saying it on the south lawn? what else could we learn? well, first of all, i don t think max is right that this is the only case of corruption trump cares about. i think he still has a passing interest in hillary clinton s emails. so let s just stipulate that. but, look, the reporting from the times suggests that this is one of the people, right, who was interviewed in the process of corroborating the initial whistleblower s
is now engaged in. let s get back to these to what s happening with the possibility of this second whistle-blower, okay? ryan, what could we learn beyond the text messages, beyond the transcript, beyond what max was just talking about saying it on the south lawn? what else could we learn? well, first of all, i don t think max is right that this is the only case of corruption trump cares about. i think he still has a passing interest in hillary clinton s emails. so let s just stipulate that. but, look, the reporting from the times suggests that this is one of the people, right, who was interviewed in the process of corroborating the initial whistle-blower s account, and it looks like during that interview, he or she i believe it is a he suggested that he might have his own whistle-blower case to file and that might allow him to have the protections of the
48% 48%, 2017, 30%. what do you say about that poll? a couple things. what max said about this, i don t blame him for taking a position that the rest of the world can understand and work with and feel at ease with. it s been a very divisive political world we ve been living in in this country, from the media to washington in every way. don, you know this. you see it. it s trench warfare. i live it every night. you do. you live it every night. you go to a different channel, it s a different story altogether. you know, the media is part of the problem. it s a very difficult time in this country. what marco rubio is saying is true. you know, it would be nice to have some sort of consistency so the rest of the world can understand what s going on. it s such a big story even the election between hillary clinton and donald trump was so intense,
ally, great britain, thanks to donald trump we are less popular around the world than china. so donald trump has been a d disaster for america s perception abroad. he s done tremendous damage to our soft power. he s engaged in unilateral disarmament of our soft power. if you look at that, you see that this is the global u.s. approval since, in 2016, put it back up, 48%, 2017, 30%. how do you respond to what he said and to that poll? couple of things. what max was talking about in terms of marco rubio, i don t disagree with him on a need for the united states to take a position that the rest of the world can understand and, and work with, and feel at ease with, you know, it s been a very divisive political world that we ve been living in this country, from the media to washington in every way. i mean, don, you know this.
credible analogy here because it wouldn t happen. it s a different time. so, again, if this is indeed true, would you rather see him in office or a democrat? it s a very easy if it turned out to be true that someone abused women, even women that were above the age of consent, i would think that person is not somebody i would want to be in any office. but i want to respond because max got a good run off in there. you should abandon donald trump if you believe that. what max is saying, max s party that he dominated for years was a party that put us into wars for years and destroyed our working class. and he now left. here s the thing i want to say, just like clarence thomas, where would he go to recover his reputation? i want you to hold to the standard every single person in office, both parties clarence thomas is a supreme court justice. right. that has the kinds of things you re alleging and we ll see how we do. at the end of the day, max, the party that you want to run
