Conflating that with conspiracy theories that are debunked doesnt mean joe biden doesnt have to answer this. but i think he showed some fight out there and -- because hes not just doing it on this issue. hes also taking on progressives in the party and arguing for robust moderate center of the party which is a good look for her. >> can i just add, joe biden does have to answer for what his son did, but i think he also in this clip was just pointing out that some of the things he was being accuse...

And we dont know, could be enormous. >> her argument is that this is about -- checks and balances and the constitution, but inherently, impeachment is political. its not a legal procedure and its a political one and weve really seen this take very partisan form with republicans so far opposing even the inquiry, and democrats leading the charge and then it will go to the senate and who knows what will happen? i mean, theres been such a misinformation campaign also when it comes to even trying to ...

Arent true. youve got much better arguments to make than that one. >> i think you would disagree, joe, even for those who pursued impeachment in 98, there are a lot of people that think in retrospect it was legitimate to impeach him for lying in a sexual harassment case, that was inappropriate behavior on the part of the president. but no one argues that that was what the frame hers had in mind the constitutional provision for impeachment was designed to excel presidents for office for that kind...

Question, will this include the illegal way that they obtained the fisa report in the first place? the warrant? >> i think thats my point. the same "new york times" report said two things. no, this is not illegally done in any way. there are mistakes that were made, but the main conspiracies that somehow the cia was out to give a campaign, that they embedded a spy in the campaign, arent true. the fact that those things are not being focused on, the little things are being focused on, one of the ...
