We know there has been a march of these witnesses. they include rudy giuliani and many, many others in various state legislatures and government. and it would be surprising if at this point, given the speed that special counsel is now working, it would seem logical that ducey has now met with and spoken with the investigators and the prosecutors. phillip, it was striking to me that ducey in response to the washington post was this is all cut and paste. there is a nugget here we did not know. i wonder what ducey s political calculus is here. we all understand what mike pence s political calculus is here. why not have governor ducey come out and say this is what he said, and let me tell you as it was told to me? i guess if you are a republican official who was under that spotlight from donald trump in that post election ....
it might reveal who put them up to it. let s say i want to be a fake elector? do i apply on line? how do i do that? somebody calls me and says, hey, elie, you want to be a fake elector today? it turns out there were a lot of calls happening. that might have been the case. who makes the phone call? was it giuliani, powell, trump? who actually makes the phone call, because that then becomes the person that s the next person to interview and the next person to talk to, the next person in trouble. the other thing you re seeing with electors is one of the reasons trump has not been in jail so far is he s been good picking people who will go to jail for him. they will go to jail for him and wait to be pardoned by trump. roger stone, paul manafort. do these fake electors want to go to jail, does giuliani want to go to jail? at some point, you get to people who do not want to go to jail for donald trump, so they re going to tell the truth to ....
Bound of attorney/client privilege and there s stuff that giuliani shouldn t talk about or shouldn t be used against trump to the extent giuliani was acting as one of his attorneys. that sort of sets the boundaries of what they re getting at. the other thing i think is happening is that you proffer the immunity so giuliani can t take the theft, he kind of has to answer your questions. in terms of what they re asking him about, again, i think we re really going in deep in terms of who told trump what? did trump direct these people, go find me a way to make fake electors or were the fake electors presented to him kind of without his direction? if it was presented to him, again, who was presenting it, was it just giuliani and powell? were there other people, what was cipollone saying? they re trying to get a sense of what information trump had before trump made his disastrous decisions to try to overturn the election. eight hours with the ex-president s attorney would seem sort of cruci ....
Polling fairly strongly for a challenger, 17% among democrats. what might surprise you is his favorability rating is 40% among republican voters compared to 25% for democrats and 31% for independents. there are a lot of reasons for this. part is because kennedy is a long time anti-vax activist who made conspiracy theories around covid vaccines and virtually all other vaccines a centerpiece of his campaign. he s backed by far right figures like steve bannon. he also wins praise from donald trump who will be running against kennedy in the highly unlikely event he were to win the democratic nomination. just like the ex-president, kennedy likes to portray himself as anti-big government, anti-establishment, an outsider. as rebecca tracer points out, kennedy s idepty as an insider, a member of the family this country was tault to love above all others and pity in their many public tragedies. ....
One of these folks and joe biden. well, i would say a couple things. i actually agree with elie about most things, but i don t necessarily agree with him about debates being totally irrelevant. i think they re largely irrelevant. you can see with what chris christie did to marco rubio in 2015 or 2016 that, you know, a kind of a show of weakness can really harm a candidate down the line. i think that rather than being substantive, you know, there are some substantive differences about ukraine, about the privatization of social security and entitlement reform, but even more than that, i think that especially for republican audience, what matters about these things are shows of dominance. it s how donald trump was able to vault himself to the front of the pack however many, six or seven years ago. and it s the only hope, i think, ....
