Is a troubling sign. basil, do you worry putting the crux of the abortion issue aside for a second, do you worry this makes joe biden look politically pliable? yes. but voters are very good at compartmentalizing. we ve seen them do that over and over and over again. we ve seen a lot of voters do that in respect to donald trump. remember, people said, don t take him literally, take him figuratively. i m not saying they ll go that far with joe biden, but i think, voters, if they feel like he s the one to get them to the promised land, so to speak, they will find a way to sort of figure out how they feel about these issues and sort of figure out how they can support him while still having concerns about some of these issues. doug, i feel like there s been a bit of a con job, and the con job was that there s some moderate wing of the democratic party. you know, first it was supposed to be with klobuchar. i have yet to see what parts of her platform are moderate. ....
Threat. not just because of that. his financial dealings, whatever it was, it was so bad, the u.s. intelligence community didn t want him to have their information. then, rick, you ve got to answer the why lie? the president easily could have said, this is my boy. we know that jared is his adviser on a variety of things, really, his closist confidant. and the president could have said that and could have said, pound salt, but he didn t. the reason to lie about it is because there s something else going on. the president has the ability to give jared kushner any security clearance he wants. he knows that. he said he didn t know it. ivanka lied about it directly. the whole thing is a con job. and the con job is jared kushner is not out securing peace in the middle east or securing peace with saudi arabia. he s out to secure contracts for a post-presidential business or whatever it is, both for him, for ivanka, for himself, for his family, and for donald trump. that s what he s out ....
The central district of california. this case as for the defamation of the con job remarks by donald trump is in all probability over. michael avenatti has appealed that, he says, but it s likely just playing the odds that that is the end of this case. the court did not permit the plaintiff to fix their complaint to meet the legal issues that it raised. so that case is probably over. of course, michael avenatti points out there s still another case pending against both michael cohen, essential consultants, then also of course donald trump. i want to stay on michael cohen because there s a vanity fair report out about him specifically that says despite not having a formal cooperation agreement with the government, cohen has willingly assisted and provided information critical to several ongoing investigations. we know he recently registered as a democrat. he s kind of doing this quiet tour around new york city. ....
On to talk about bill clinton. i wrote a book called the death of outrage. the president really hit this well the other day. when he talked about the con job. he said democrats get together and laugh about this. they say we got it. got a delay. we ll get another delay. when i was in the green room with democrats we d debate on tv. afterwards they d say you are absolutely right. he should go, he should be impeached. it s deplorable. they go on tv and just lie. the bible. sell your birthrate. this party has. they will go there are no depths which they will refuse to go to try to get their way. it s a badly tainted party. what i thought would happen after his, judge kavanaugh s spontaneous it s hard to watch. he was so close to breaking up. but when he gave his version of this is a lynching, some of them would be shamed. but there is no shame in that party. you know the two words. ....
Actually intends to vote against this bill. i ve seen this game before. what you try to do is sort of pretend that you re against this, then you take a cosmetic change and say, you know, that s the way it should have been to protect conservative voters. it s really part of the con job. there is nothing americans dislike more than a con job. the fact is this is a con job for the ages, and you see it in terms of the tactics i just mentioned among those conservative voters, and this overall bill after the president promised more heart and a bill that was less mean, this bill just doubles down on what they already did. so it sounds like you believe they will get the vote. certainly today, what we have to do is show how flawed this bill is. i m the ranking democrat on the senate finance committee. ....
