criminal contempt is a much bigger deal in the grand scheme of things but also as chief of staff on 1-6 he would say he has a stronger privilege claim. is that the case? or does him spelling all these beans in his new memoir undermine that claim? >> he does have a stronger case than bannon did but let's take a look at what the prosecutors have to weigh should the full house refer him to the u.s. attorney's office here in washington for possible contempt charges. they are going to look at the fact he did speak about many of these things publicly in his book and also that you can tell from the text messages and the things the committee wants to ask they want to talk about things that had nothing to do with running the country. keep in mind executive privilege is generally extended so that when you are in part of a deliberative process trying to run the federal government your decisions and decision making is not scrutinizing by people after you. that is a privilege we extend so people can in good faith make great decisions about how to run the country. this was not about running the country. it is very clear from the text
