so, as you know, if you were paying attention in the last 24 hours, the president wrote a letter to the speaker of the house, complaining in pretty astringent terms about being impeached which she says is a miscarriage of justice. it was an interesting, long letter. here s how it was covered on the other cable channels. it tells you a lot. watch this. what is this ranting letter say about president trump s fitness for office on the eve of his impeachment? the audiences at home read the letter as if saddam hussein or hadithay would actually have written that letter. have their voice in their head read this like authoritarian. it s as if an authoritarian wrote it. right now it s going to go down as a letter from a two bit dictator of a banana republic it has that toll it. some would call it fiery. others would call it unhinged. that letter donald trump sent today was back adoodle, it was gibberish.
it was ugly. pelosi responded calling the letter sick. what is it about strong, powerful women that really puts trump over the edge? [laughter] tucker: meanwhile, we never learned what was in the letter. brit, we just know it s back adoodle, it s sick, it s ramblings of a two-bit dictator. aren t you supposed you have been in the news business for long enough to know the answer. shouldn t the preface to those comments be the letter itself? shouldn t you tell us what s in it? brit: exactly right, tucker. this is typical, however. i heard a lot of the commentary about the letter before i actually read the letter. i read it then. it was pretty strong medicine but there was nothing deranged or unhinged about it. in fact, there were a must numbr of quite valid points in that letter. make no mistake about this tucker. he is not mentioning it in his speech tonight as you pointed out at that rally. trump does not like this one bit. tucker: no. brit: he thinks i m sure a stain on hi
deal with china. we tax at 2.5% and let them sell their things at 50% cheap are than we sell our thing. that s not good for my country but you re getting rich do it, so why dent we go with it. i believe it is disingenuous and simplistic in that it refuses to acknowledge the manipulations under way on the price of everything by virtue of business and government, whether it s in credit or trade or the banking system which controls the flow of capital. that s my opus for the afternoon. we re keeping these three. that s why i feel i can go off like that, because they re staying anyway. what do they care? up next, america s credit cards. dems say a billion in shavings from bringing the troops home. of course that would actually require bringing the troops home, which won t happen until out of foreign oil. isn t this the president to get out of off that? i think he said that. and stop the oceans from rising. didn t nixon say that too?
and rude and an indication that you are not serious. and if you are serious you understand that the government as a necessary rulemaker for engagement and industry uses its access to government to manipulate the price of credit, the price of energy, the price ever food, the cost of capital, and all of those things are done inรง order for a few people to extract the wealth of this country to other nations and to smaller locations basically like taking a bribe. so effectively, the ceo of caterpillar is taking a bribe from chine in where he says i will lobby the president to make sure we keep trade. i will maintain my billion dollar investment in china where i will collect $100 million for myself and in the process i will screw america and the government who is supposed to say, hello, caterpillar ceo jim owens. i don t understand why you wanted to do this wack adoodle deal with china. we tax at 2.5% and let them sell
