got sworn in, two democratic house members reintroduced a bill calling for the impeachment of president trump. it s not the only possible option that could threaten the trump presidency, depending on what robert mueller s team finds. in an interview this morning, nancy pelosi wouldn t rule out an indictment against the president. there is long standing justice department guidance that says a sitting president should not be indicted. is that is is not the law. end everything indicates a president can be indicted. what about a sitting president? can robert mueller come back and say i am seeking an indictment? i think that is an open discussion in terms of the law. tonight, a new controversy for the president s acting attorney general matthew whitaker. a source confirms that whitaker told former attorney ed meese that the justice department is
convincing detail showing that russian intelligence, military intelligence operatives had interfered in the 2016 election, and really boxed trump in. i think the stakes were lower with this meeting with putin. i wouldn t rule out the possibility that mueller s timing this summer was connected to the trump/putin meeting. in this case i d be a little surprised but we can t know for sure. there is no question that once again it did put pressure on trump as your correspondents have so ably explained, there was also pressure around this ukraine situation. i would note that this puts trump in sync with the rest of his administration, notably nikki haley, and i m sure what other senior officials are thinking privately because they tend to be more hawkish on russia than he is. one of his first responses to the russian aggression against ukrainian ships was i don t like it on all sides. it almost was like that famous line from charlottesville, both sides are to blame here. that was not the posi
somebody like maybe sherrod brown could be capable of doing that. recession? i wouldn t rule out i wouldn t rule out amy klobuchar and some of the other democrats as being able to reach those voters. sherrod brown and amy klobuchar. your thoughts? no john s point, ohio went about 10 points for trump and sherrod brown just won it comfortably. six points or so. he s got that feel. i ve long thought that hillary clinton s best running mate in 2016 would have been absolutely. he went to yale, but he doesn t let it show. okay? he has that working guy s gruff voice. he comes off as a labor kind of guy. i think he has the message which is keep be okay. be solid on the social issues, put economics out front. i a in those states they re risk proned to the economy. they want to know their president is on their side on trade issues and things like
somebody like sherrod brown could be capable of doing that. working class, recession. i wouldn t rule out amy klobuchar and some of the other democrats as being able to reach those voters as well. your thoughts? to john s point ohio went about ten points for trump and then brown won it comfortably, six points or so. he s got that feel. i ve long thought that hillary clinton s best running mate in 2016 would have been absolutely. because he went to yale and he doesn t let it show. he has that working guy s gruff voice, comes off as a labor kind of guy. be solid on the social issues, choice and lgbt issues and all that stuff. those risk prone when it comes to the economy want to know the president is on their side.
who wants to run should run on the democratic side. hillary clinton has made it clear she is not running for president despite what mark penn wrote in the wall street journal. i haven t talked to her in years and years and years. mrs. clinton has shown a great desire to assume political power, her right in a democracy and wouldn t rule her out. democrats have to find a candidate who as much as they can take away from the mid-terms. younger voters coming out in their favor and demographic changes. they need a candidate to go toe-to-toe with president trump. a joe biden-type candidate but someone appealing to the far left, a mobilized block in the democratic party. that will be a hard line to skew. you re right. it is not just about fighting president trump but for the future and heart of the democrat party. while the energy is clearly in
