Immediate experience of the screen. Listen, you deserve a really great weekend and i hope you have one. You do too. And thanks to you at home for joining me tonight. There are a lot of words that you might expect to hear a president say over and over in a state of the union address. Words like jobs, freedom or if its a joe biden speech, folks. But he chose a different theme. He chose the word, predecessor. My predecessor. A former republican president tells putin, quote, and do whatever you want. My predecessor was seeking to see roe v wade overturned. He is the reason it was overturned and he brags about it. My predecessor failed the most basic duty to care. And i think thats unforgivable. I predecessor told the nra he is proud he did nothing on guns when he was president. My predecessor, and many in this chamber, want to by repealing Affordable Care act. Im not can let that happen.

So i think that it was kind of mixed reviews. and i think there was some take-away from some world leaders that the u.s. might not be willing to get involved in kind of any big projects. yeah, it s pretty interesting, ayesha. let s switch gears and in reuters first to report yesterday that the republican national committee is using funds from a legal proceedings account to actually help president trump pay for his russia-related legal fees. what more can you tell us about this? and more importantly, is this unprecedented? well, it s unprecedented. now, it s not illegal because president trump did not use public financing for his campaign. he privately funded it. so, he is allowed to use campaign funds and rnc funds for legal investigation. but it is unprecedented in this day and age, to have a president
Things they proposed reopening, because they live there. okay? so it s a very self-centered vision of what s important in government. it s unbelievable. mckay, the great reince priebus, we just saw him there offering rnc funds, $150,000. do you think it would help if mothers on wic support stormed a memorial to draw attention to their needs? it certainly wouldn t hurt. i think that, you know, in every time there is a crisis like this in washington, there are certain events that become flash points. for some reason, the war memorial may not be the most important probably isn t the most important thing going on here but it was the flashpoint and yesterday republicans and conservatives thought maybe this was something that could turn public opinion or start to turn the narrative in their favor. but i think when reince priebus went out there after the white house already announced that, look, these war memorials are going to be open now for, you know, war veterans to come and visit f
