OUT HIS POLITICAL WILL. >> NEVER ADJUSTING HIS BEHAVIOR
TO THE WAYS EVER THE NORMS OR
THE LAWS OF WASHINGTON.
>> THE PEOPLE, THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES IS NOT A
PRESIDENT, HE IS NOT RUNNING THE
UNITED STATES.
UNITED STATES. HE IS A GUY DOING A GUY THING.
THE OP-ED SAYS TRUMP OFFICIALS
HAVE CONSIDERED ATTEMPTS TO
REMOVE HIM FROM OFFICE.
COMPLEX PROCESS FOR REMOVING THE
PRESIDENT.
PRESIDENT. WE WILL DO WHAT WE CAN TO STEER
THE ADMINISTRATION IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION UNTIL ONE WAY OR
ANOTHER, IT’S OVER.
THAT IS AN AMAZING COMMENT.
THIS PRESIDENCY IS GOING TO DIE
AT SOME POINT, LET’S WRITE IT
OUT AND KEEP IT AS LEAST
DANGEROUS AS POSSIBLE.
>> THE IDEA THAT THE 20 FIFTH
AMENDMENT IS HARD TO CONTEMPLATE
AT THAT POINT.
FOR THOSE FOLKS TO GET TOGETHER
AND ASK THE CONGRESS TO SIT DOWN
AND CONSIDER THE PRESIDENT’S
COMPETENCY.
COMPETENCY. CONGRESS WOULD HAVE A LOT OF
DECISION MAKING POWER, WE CAN
DEBATE ALL DAY WHETHER THEY WILL
STAND UP AND PERFORM THEIR
FUNCTION UNDER THIS SETTING.
BUT LARGELY UNPRECEDENTED AND
THE PRESIDENT’S REACTION TO CALL
IT TREASON IS A MIND BOGGLING
DISPLAY OF HIS IGNORANCE.
SOMETHING THAT THE FOUNDING
FATHERS DID WAS TO REJECT THE
IDEA THAT TREASON INVOLVED A
SOVEREIGN.
SOVEREIGN. AND THEY DID AWAY OF A COUPLE OF
HUNDRED YEARS OF LAW.
THERE IS NO DUTY OF LOYALTY OWED
TO THE SOVRJEREIGN.
SO STILL HARD TO CONTEMPLATE
THAT WE ARE IN 25th AMENDMENT
TERRITORY.
TERRITORY. >> THE CONTENT OF THE OP-ED WILL
APPEAR IN THE "NEW YORK TIMES"
TOMORROW.
TOMORROW. THE PRESIDENT LASHED OUT AT THE
TIMES.
TIMES. >> WHEN YOU TELL ME ABOUT SOME
ANONYMOUS SOURCE PROBABLY WHO IS
FAILING, AND PROBABLY HRERE FOR
ALL THE WRONG REASONS.
IF THE FAILING "NEW YORK TIMES"
HAS AN ANONYMOUS EDITORIAL,
MEANING GUTLESS, A GUTLESS
EDITORIAL, WE ARE DOING A GREAT
JOB.
JOB. THE POLL NUMBERS ARE THROUGH THE
ROOF.
ROOF. AND NOBODY IS GOING TO COME
CLOSE TO BEATING ME IN 2020
BECAUSE OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE.
>> ZER LINA, YOUR ANALYSIS.
HE LOOKS SWEATY AND A LITTLE BIT
UNHINGED TO USE OMAROSA’S WORD.
THIS VALIDATED WHAT WE KNEW FROM
THE PREVIOUS BOOK.
AND ALL THE REPORTING THAT HAS
BEEN DONE.
BEEN DONE. WE AS CITIZENS WHAT WE NEED TO
DECIDE IS WHAT DO WE DO NEXT?
IS IT THE 25th AMENDMENT.
IN NOVEMBER, WE CAN PERHAPS TALK
SERIOUSLY ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY
OF STARTING AN IMPEACHMENT
PROCESS.
PROCESS. WHICH IS A TWO STEP PROCESS.
THE BEGINNING OF THAT WOULD BE
TALKING ABOUT IT IN A SERIOUS
WAY.
WAY. AND WE ARE ACTUALLY IN THAT
MOMENT, THE PRESIDENT IS A
NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT BECAUSE
HE DOESN’T UNDERSTAND FOREIGN
POLICY.
POLICY. HE DOESN’T LISTEN TO HIS
ADVISORS AND WE HAVE BOB
WOODWARD ON RECORD SAYING
GENERAL MATTIS TOOK AN ORDER ON
THE PHONE TO ASSASSINATE ASAD.
>> WHAT DO YOU WANT THE
DEMOCRATS TO DO?
>> STAND UP AND FIGHT.
>> THAT IS A GENERAL TERM.
SHOULD THEY PROMISE IMPEACHMENT
IN THIS ELECTION.
>> I DON’T THINK YOU PROMISE
IMPEOPLE.
IMPEOPLE. IMPEACHMENT.
IMPEACHMENT. IT IS ONE OF THE WAYS TO HOLD
THIS PRESIDENT ACCOUNTABLE, BUT
IT IS UP TO THE CITIZENS AND THE
VOTERS TO MAKE SURE THE
DEMOCRATS HAVE THAT.
SO IT IS ALSO ON CITIZENS.
>> LET’S GO TO PHIL.
EVEN THOUGH A LOT OF THEM WANT
IT, THEY HAVE A PASSION FOR IT.
I CAN READ POLLS.
AND MY QUESTION, IS WHAT IT IT S
GOING TO LIKELY HAPPEN.
THIS PERSON WENT A STEP BEYOND
BACKGROUND AND PUT OUT AN OP-ED
PIECE FOR THE "NEW YORK TIMES."
NOW WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP GOING
TO BE?
TO BE? ARE PEOPLE GOING TO RALLY TO
THIS CHARACTER.
THIS CHARACTER. THIS PRESIDENT IS A CAPTAIN
KWEE.
KWEE. WHAT IS DONE BY THE STAFFERS.
>> WE WILL SEE IF THEY ARE ABLE
TO IDENTIFY WHO THE OFFICIAL IS.
AND IF SO, THAT OFFICIAL IS NOT
GOING TO BE IN THE JOB FOR VERY
LONG.
LONG. >> DO YOU THINK YOU KNOW WHO IT
IS.
IS. >> THERE IS A LOT OF SPECULATION
AROUND HERE.
AROUND HERE. MOST OF US THINK IT IS SOMEBODY
WHO CAN WRITE, AND HOW TO GO ETE
TO THE TIMES WITHOUT CLERICAL
ASSISTANCE.
ASSISTANCE. SOMEBODY TO PUT IT ONLINE FOR
HIM.
HIM. SOMEBODY WHO CAN DO IT HIM OR
HERSELF.
HERSELF. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THAT?
>> I DON’T KNOW WHO IT IS.
I CAN TELL YOU FROM OUR
REPORTING FROM THE LAST HOUR,
THAT THE PRESIDENT IS
SPECULATING THAT IT MIGHT BE
SOMEBODY IN THE NATIONAL
SECURITY REALM.
SECURITY REALM. NO EVIDENCE OF WHO THE OFFICIAL
IS.
IS. THERE IS GOING TO BE PUBLIC
PRESSURE FOR THIS INDIVIDUAL TO
COME FORWARD.
COME FORWARD. AND PERHAPS IT WILL CHANGE THE
OUTMENT THAL THE REPUBLICAN
LEADERS.
LEADERS. >> TO USE LOAD START, AND
UNUSUAL VOCABULARY WORD.
THIS IS WHAT HE IS DOING.
IN TERMS OF INTERNATIONAL
STRATEGY.
STRATEGY. I CAN IMAGINE A NUMBER OF
MOTIVES AROUND THIS.
>> YEAH.
>> YEAH. AND IT IS INTERESTING TO SEE --
>> WHY WOULD SOMEBODY STICK
THEIR NECK OUT AND THEIR CAREER
OUT UNLESS THEY BELIEVE IT IS
IDEOLOGY BEING THREATENED OR
REPUBLIC ITSELF BEING
THREATENED.
THREATENED. >> YOU HAVE SEEN MORE ANONYMOUS
SOURCES TALK ABOUT THIS
PRESIDENCY THAN ANY OTHER
BECAUSE THEY ARE BOTHERED BY IT.
NOW YOU ARE SEEING IT IN AN
