Even though the country is divided 50/50, on whether he should be removed from office. there is a slight majority who said he did something wrong, in the worst case that he committed an impeachable offense, and if the trial is seen rigged from the start, it seems unlikely, even a vote from the senate is going to reduce the majority of americans who said he didnt d something wrong, and that is ultimately the real test facing him next november. >> still that question mark that will be remaining, t...

Completely on offense. his call was perfect. those that testified or questioned him are enemies. tim, that puts this country in uncharted waters, doesnt it? >> yes, and it puts a lot of pressure on republicans. there is an argument that some of them could have made that the president did something wrong, that this approach to ukraine was not in americas national interest. but, yet, this misconduct is not impeachable. im not saying i agree with this but that is a plausible, respectable argument. ...

Few republicans, three i would say, to endorse. they could be for the president at the end of the day, but just saying, sure, lets hear testimony. >> i wonder if some of the people in the base maybe that want to hear from more people, want to hear from people who will exonerate the president, who might be champions of the president. >> like who? >> im not sure. maybe they think those exist. the president has talked about people who would exonerate him on twitter. i dont believe hes named anyone ...

Also, this is the only partisan -- pure partisan impeachment vote in the history of the united states. what is setting up to be. the only bipartisan element are democrats who may vote against it. remember that president clinton, 21 years ago tomorrow, when he was impeached by the house, was contrite. he was sorry for what happened, he said. and the democrats who supported him acknowledged that he was doing something wrong. he did something wrong, lying under oath about his affair. and that situa...

Heres what happened today. the president sends a letter to nancy pelosi which is essentially a scream from a guilty man. he says i cant argue with you, but im going call you name. im going to say its a hoax, im going say its a perfect call. you know what, jesse, 70% of americans including republicans say, you did something wrong, mr. president. thats not right to try to use your power as a representative of the united states to get information on your political opponent. dont do it. shouldnt hav...

I think its fair, and as i said all along, i think the leverage is if the house says, were not going to send the articles over if this isnt a fair trial. >> you know, i think its an interesting idea, i think its one that a lot of democrats on the house side have rejected. partly because there were a group of moderates who were interested in censuring president trump instead of voting out articles of impeachment. that idea was really slapped down by a lot of prominent democrats who say, thats not...

Now he wants to have an investigation that by summer of next year, according to his remarks going into the presidents re-election campaign will say not only has the president been cleared of misbehavior but that the entire investigation itself was a witch hunt and it never should have been investigated and that the president is a vuk tictim, not d actor here. and the other part of it is, i think a lot of people missed this. the thing hes doing with john durham is trying to extend the threat to t...

Presented. im sorry, if name-calling is the best youve got. >> dana: let me jump in. >> ill explain why you are. >> dana: we should clarify. you think that joe biden himself helped hunter get the job? i understand the influence, i understand that they wanted him on there, but are you saying that joe biden actually helped his son get the job? >> i think an investigation would be pretty wonderful. i think they say your son getting a job here is the problem, he cant deal with that right now. thats ...

Going to be the ones under pressure and many would turn and vote against the president. sounds like you think something very different now. >> i have always been very clear and said this is a political trial, not a judicial or illegal trial, so facts matter but at the end of the day, who makes the decisions are people who are republicans or democrats. theyre going to protect president trump because if they were going to speak the truth, if they were going to actually speak for the american peopl...

Want today impeachment this president since he got elected. fact after fact after fact. i knowte that some of you reall think he did something wrong, but none of your fact witnesses were able to establish any evidence of bribery, treason, high crimes, or misdemeanors. i believe the president of the united states is right. this is a sham impeachment, and it sure is a shame and i yield back the balance of my time. >> the gentlelady yields back. >> move to strike the last work. >> youre recognized....
