The truth doesnt matter to me at all unless im under oath. extrapolate that out to the implications. i have to say, it took my breath away to see that. think about whats going on in saudi arabia right now. the president is trying to convince people iran was behind the attack. hes not under oath. why is he under any obligation to tell the truth? corey lewandowski said if hes not under oath, he doesnt care. >> when you openly admit 99% of my life when not under oath, i say whatever i want. this is...

Rolled that back. you know, he was in a bad mood about it. the thing about the president, as you said, this is a rate cut i wouldnt have voted for. hes okay with that dissent in the oval, go into the oval what do you think about interest rates? on this one i think i wouldnt cut right now. i think the inflation risks are something im concerned about. he clearly disagrees with me on that one and probably wanted the fed to move 50 basis points today. >> so you can say that privately, but its public...

Get the guns because if kids are going to school and this is -- and that -- watching that ad affected me more than even being in those situations when i was a kid. i just think -- i think were playing politics with something that is very tough. >> do you think that the suburban white woman vote, which is kind of up for grabs in a lot of elections, this might be an issue that pushes a lot more. >> i think that is the area where it is most likely to make a difference. this messaging. although i wi...
