Constitution, of the founding fathers. i always say they did amazing things for their time and they were also wrong about all sorts of things. if you have a 3/5 compromise, you re 100% wrong about one of the most fundamental things. yet in the system of government, they say well, the congress will check the executive. ambition will check ambition. everyone who has been in any office politics fight in their life is familiar with that, that people will represent their own ends. they tried to turn that to good. you just referred to that, sir. i want to play for you some of the republicans who up until this press conference up until. today were saying, well, we ll step up to this. take a look. i don t think he should do that. i think it s a bad precedent. this would just be another erosion of congressional authority. i do not see the grounds for declaring a national emergency. i m not crazy about going down that path. i hate the idea of an emergency because i always worry ....
This is one of the ways they think they can possibly win, is by obstruction and a lot of other nonsense. and i think that i just want to get it done faster. that s all. will you cite those comments in your court challenge? well, i think they re very compelling arguments for us, for sure. i don t think they support his argument as well, and we have our wonderful colleagues right now working on the complaint, and i m sure they re listening closely to what he s saying. would you use them if you were filing this brief? oh, definitely. donald trump is the gift that keeps on giving for constitutional law. everything he does is a hypothetical you could put in an exam or give to your students. this is perfect. everything that he said undermined the idea there is some kind of emergency. in fact, the national emergencies act requires something more than simply wanting to be more expeditious in building a fake wall. i want to read from something that was in the washington post about t ....
It goes right at what roger stone prizes most, his ability to make his case in public. this federal judge finding mueller won the arguments for a partial gag order. that means it bans stone and his lawyers from public remarks that would prejudice jurors as well as even talking at all when they come and go from the court. anyone watching stone s recent conduct knows that will require him to change gears or go to jail. because roger stone has been doing those exact things since being indicted for witness tampering, talking in front of the court, doing media tours and likening the fbi to, quote, nazi police in these media appearances. that s the kind of thing that could prejudice jurors. to storm my house with a greater force than what used to take down bin laden or el chapo or pablo escobar. they sent fewer men to go after bin laden than after me. i saw a dozen other fbi agents in the background, all ....
And the question is why was he lying? was he just a congenital liar? or was he trying to cover up for the president in the hope of getting a pardon involving all of those years? you say congenital. i will say it s funny to try to give someone a fairness defense that makes them look terrible. but there are trump aides who told me, look, paul lied about everything. he would literally lie about the color of his tie, like it was his thing. that doesn t mean he also didn t lie about important things, but that s a defense i heard. before i let you go out of this segment, the president says, quote, it s a national emergency, but, quote, it s one that he could have done later or not at all. does that mean legally it s not an emergency in your view? i think that the lawyers arguing for the president are going to say that the court should defer to the president, the deference argument is the chief one he has going for him, and it is certainly defeated or tends to be greatly undermined by tha ....
