some russian collusion. and i don t think they re convinced yet there is no russian collusion. they re investigating collusion, congressman. le wit lwell, it is interestir all the time and the investigations no one has come up with anything about collusion. we keep hearing about all of the bombshells that come out of capitol hill and yet none of them have kind of put a dink in the armor, if you will. but i think one of the interesting things that rudy giuliani did push last night as he felt that robert mueller was an honorable guy, but that the team was bad. they talked in the full interview about andrew weizman. sean hannity made reference to the partisan donations of some of the team. they talked about if we sit down with mueller, then we want it to be on the hillary clinton standard that it has got to be somebody who wants me elected and hates my opponent and it has got to be off the record, so to speak. giuliani talked about having it recorded, and i thought that was all interes
sending a signal to mueller team that that s him saying we don t want an objective investigation. isn t that bizarre? well, i don t know. if you re the lawyer, you probably don t want an objective investigation in terms of if you have nothing to hide, you do, congressman, if you have nothing to hide, you do. well, yes, but think about this, what they were saying is there is a clear double standard here that hillary clinton was treated completely different than so far the trump team has been. so i think what they were saying, again part of it was that the mueller team has some problems. they definitely have partisanship. when peter strock does the interview with hillary clinton and writes her exoneration, how can you consider that objective by any standards? i think appealing to mueller as an honorable guy, saying, look, you got to think this thing through a little bit, it is bigger than the hatred of donald trump. this is about the united states justice system. we have
of the comey of the stormy daniels payment sounds like a confession to campaign finance violation. so it is not an impressive performance so far by the former. stick with us. we haven t gotten into what you just brought up, which is the obstruction of justice potential issue here with the comey firing, what giuliani said. stay with us. let s bring in our political commentator, patty solis doyle and congressman jack kingston. congressman kingston, let me begin with you. as someone out on the campaign a lot, supporting the president, been a very vocal supporter of him, how does this sit with you now that giuliani is saying, yeah, the president paid off this hush money when the president said to us that he didn t? well, i think i really regret rudy giuliani using the word funnel, but aside from that, michael cohen was not involved in the campaign. he worked for the trump organization, which was a
he said i believe mueller is a good man, he was a patriot. if they are objective, we can come to some agreement. i actually think that beyond all the comey and the accusations and michael cohen stuff, that there was a signal there that rudy was delivering a message. why else would he go on publicly as he did. we ll talk about rudy giuliani and the mueller investigation in a minute. when pressed on the president s changing stories, on the stormy daniels payment, because on air force one, the president said he didn t know anything about the payment. on the issue of why this story changed, rudy giuliani says it is not an issue. congressman, how can being straight with the american people be not an issue? i think the president has i think rudy should clarify that the president, in fact, was paying this $35,000 retainer to
spheresly loyal to donald trump as we know. yes. has he done a good job representing his client here. no, don, i don t think he has. first of all, the idea that he would have look, jack congressman kingston is right that we haven t proven yet or no one has proven that this is a campaign finance violation. but it strains credulity first of all as joe and joan are saying to think he would have gone out and done this of his own volition without any motive. david stop there. you have a juris doctorate. i do. does that stand up in court even though it strains credulity. because michael cohen believes he has iron clad document that they violated. you know, i think that the contract stands. but the contract and the f.e.c. violation if there is one is two different issues. but don wait a second let me step out of the legal mode for a second and say it occurs to me at some point that stormy daniels at this point with all the attention could just go out there and tell her story
