Public soon, hes going to be very interesting to see what hes got to say next week. >> and congressman lu, speaking of ambassador yovanovitch, do you think that the threat that donald trump issued against her attacking her i should say, the attack on her in real time during the hearing in which she was speaking will wind up playing a role in the forming of articles of impeachment should this get to that point against donald trump? >> im a former prosecutor. what donald trump did looks like witne...
