Fascist dictatorship, and so bill barr, after, ive got to say, humiliating himself for several years, bill barr decides, this is where i get off. This is enough. This is my line. I believe in an imperial presidency, but i dont believe in a fascist presidency. Thats what donald trump was asking him to do. Asking him to steal an election. Asking him to arrest his political opponents. Asking him to do the sort of things, again, that fascist dictators do. He wouldnt do it. Now, trump has turned on him. As far as fani willis goes and jack smith and everything else, again, we can point you back to it and play it for you again, what we were saying in 2019. If donald trump lost in 2020, he would run again, and hed run again simply to avoid all the crimes he was committing. Im not good at math, but that was four years ago. Four years ago, we were saying he will run again so he can try to avoid jail. Going to jail. Here we are. I must say, a lot of people were saying that, so its hard to believe
General is, what party the attorney general is. so they go to work day in and day out. i wanted to remind people that i think the department is doing the very best that it can. i m not saying they re perfect. sometimes mistakes are made, and i point that out in the opop-ed. by and large, they do a good job. differences that occur sometimes in prosecutions are based upon facts, based upon the evidence, the experience of the prosecutor. sometimes you ll have perhaps different outcomes in cases that look similar but may, in fact, be very different because of the facts and the evidence that a prosecutor is able to present and get in a trial. again, this is about a reminder of who we are as a party. you know, party for the rule of law. a party for economic and individual liberty. a party for national security and our military. a party that believes in the value, the importance of law enforcement. that s who we are as a party.
Contributor for time magazine. cnn political commentator and pop ed columnist for the new york times and maria cardone, cnn political commentator and democrat i should say. thank you for being here. the green party is having no problems raising millions of dollars for this recount. what does that say about the state of the country today? well, clearly we re still very divided as a country and a lot of these states are really 50/50. i mean you see already hillary clinton s up more than 2 million votes ahead in the popular vote. and there s still a lot of rancor and strife and people who don t want to let go, want the election to be swayed for hillary clinton or could be swayed in some other way that donald trump might lose somehow, and it s not actually very realistic. look, these are pretty wide vote margins. they don t trigger an automatic recount. they aren t within the sort of 0.5% which would trigger an automatic recount. they re really not close enough
