had you ever been a secretary to the president and taken dictation or shorthand? many times. we got your qualifications now. you were a secretary. he asked you outside white house channels, that s what mueller wrote, this was outside white house channels. could he have asked you to get the message to sessions because you would do whatever he asked, just like your former boss who said you were an implementer. news day called you the president s enforcer. usa today said lewandowski s background is a trump guy, not a strategist, not a campaign manager but as a right hand man, a body man and enforcer. esquire went further and said one time campaign manager for donald trump has the traits of an enforcer and the conflict resolution skills to match. and you ve even described yourself in your book, let trump by trump, you said we were fine with whatever role the president wanted us to play. donald trump s army, there were
repeatedly. maybe not crimes for some it was. some are in jail. there were numerous detailed episodes that represent potential obstruction of justice. but mr. mueller clearly left it to congress to process. the biggest concern is the right is expected to defend this president at this time but ignoring what mueller an their own folks say about russia just to help the president? is that upholding their oath? listen how to what the trump campaign manager said today. you heard the echo all day long. this was his statement. the entire spectacle has always been about the democrats trying to undo the results of the 2016 election. today they failed again. it s now even more apparent that democrats are consumed with their hatred to the president and their obsession with overturning the will of the people who elected him. it s one thing for a campaign guy to spin it that way, but you heard that from a lot of members of congress. how do we move forward from here? what is the case against this pre
improper, but can you make a criminal case that something of value changed hands? his question was that s what mueller was doing. he was the special prosecutor to investigate crimes. right? and he as the prosecutor he concluded he could not make a criminal case out of that meeting or any of the other contacts multiple contacts if one wants to criticize the mueller none of us is defending anything the trump campaign did. they clearly were out of bounds. they re attacking you, not me. i m saying if people want to criticize the mueller probe, from the beginning it was pl flawed. we were told he s going to look into potential criminal interference except the president because he put in part two of his report, i m not allowed to prosecute the president. but everybody was expecting that. that was the flaw.
those answers. what does this mean for the president for his reelection? we have a key member of the president s legal team tonight. he says the case is closed. i say the biggest questions remain. what do you say? let s get after it. one of the things we should agree on at this point, let s start and finish with russia meddled from the start. they want to do it again. election protection must matter. and doesn t right now. what else? now it gets subjective. too many on the right, i would argue, is playing to this president, and ignoring the basic truth of interference or at least they re odd va kating inaction. many of those closest to the president welcomed russia s assistance in 2016. there was collusion. people trying to access russian efforts and contact bad actors. not crimes according to mr. mueller. there s a distinction. the president lied about what he did and said. he continues to do so. many in trump world lied
you will not mention anything from mr. mueller that the president where is progress, what do you think the democrats should do next? i think at this point it s about duty. i m not a political analyst. i m about the rule of law. i think but you re smart. you worked at the fbi. you re a law professor. i think they need to begin an impeachment inquiry. if you are looking at this from an investigative point of view, there is more than enough reasonable suspicion. you can t finish the job. it doesn t matter. the fbi every day gets leads where they don t know you know now it won t result in a successful prosecution. you don t know the future. we think that but there are factors that unfold as things go on, and frankly, it will drive the president nuts. like, he might have some moment where he confesses everything on national television. that s not the best reason to do it. i m saying we don t know the
