>> WOW. >> SO TO HAVE TWO EVENTS IN
HISTORY --
HISTORY -- >> THAT ARE THAT CONSEQUENTIAL.
DID YOU SENSE IT WHEN YOU WERE
SITTING THERE, PLOT JUST A SENSE
OF PERSONAL HISTORY BUT OF THE
MOMENT?
MOMENT? WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR AMERICA?
BECAUSE THESE DAYS THESE THINGS
COME AND GO AND DONALD TRUMP
HIMSELF WASN’T PAYING ATTENTION.
HE WAS OUT GIVING A SPEECH.
>> OH, DON’T WORRY.
HE WAS PAYING ATTENTION.
THIS HAS WRECKED HIS LAST COUPLE
OF DAYS IF YOU FOLLOW HIM ON
TWITTER.
TWITTER. IT’S QUITE A STORM OF INSANITY.
IT -- BEING THERE THIS IS, I
THINK, WHEN YOU WATCH IT ON TV
IT IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT
EXPERIENCE.
EXPERIENCE. TO BE THERE IN PERSON AND TO
REALLY SEE THE REPUBLICANS, I
FOCUS ON THEM MOST OF THE TIME
AND I WAS LIKE, WOW, NOW WE’RE
WATCHING THEM IN
THREE-DIMENSIONAL IN THE FLESH
AND IT WAS -- AS YOU LOOKED AT
THEM FIRST OF ALL YOU WONDERED
WHAT TIME TUNNEL DID THEY GO IN
TO FIND THIS GROUP OF PEOPLE?
LIKE THIS IS NOT AMERICA
ANYMORE.
ANYMORE. WHATEVER -- THEY THINK THAT’S
AMERICA, A BUNCH OF OLD WHITE
GUYS, YOU KNOW, ALL ANGRY, ALL
BENT OUT OF SHAPE, ALL WRONG --
I JUST WANT TO TELL YOU WHEN I
WAS GROWING UP YOU MAY NOT HAVE
AGREED WITH REPUBLICANS, YOU
WOULD NEVER THINK THAT THEY
WOULD STAND AND ENDORSE THE
BEHAVIOR OF SOMEONE LIKE DONALD
TRUMP AND WHAT HE DID AND THE
LAWS THAT HE BROKE.
AND HOW HE WAS WILLING TO
CORRUPT THIS ELECTION AGAIN WAS
JUST -- IT WAS JUST -- BUT
THEY’RE WHOLE M.O. AS THEY WENT
UP TO THE PODIUM, AS THEY
SHOUTED AND -- AND THEN THEY
WOULD LEAVE AND THEY WOULD MOCK
THE DEMOCRATS, AND THEY WERE
CYNICAL ABOUT IT.
AND THEY WERE, YOU KNOW,
LAUGHING AND THEY WERE -- IT WAS
JUST SO WEIRD.
AND THEN AT THE END WHEN THE
VOTE HAPPENED THE HOWL THAT CAME
FROM THE REPUBLICAN SIDE, IT WAS
REALLY THIS KIND OF VERY OTHER
WORLDLY SOUND.
WORLDLY SOUND. YOU CAN KIND OF PLAY IT BACK ON
TV.
TV. YOU’D HAVE TO TURN UP THE VOLUME
A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE THEY’RE NOT
ALL MIKED IN THEIR CHAIRS.
BUT BEING THEREAFTER SHE
DECLARED THE PRESIDENT WAS
IMPEACHED -- JUST LIKE WOW.
I SAID TO MY SISTER, I SAID THAT
IS THE SOUND OF THE DYING
DINOSAUR.
DINOSAUR. I CAN IMAGINE WHEN THE DINOSAURS
KNEW THAT IT WAS OVER, THAT
THEIR TIME WAS UP THEY PROBABLY
WERE LETTING OUT A HELL A LOT OF
HOWLS OF PAIN.
AND THOSE GUYS KNEW IT WAS OVER.
>> LET ME TELL YOU WHAT I DIDN’T
SEE WATCHING IT ON TV.
I DIDN’T SEE AN ARGUMENT THAT
SAID YOU KNOW WHAT THE GUY WAS
ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY,
DID THE WRONG THING, HE
SHOULDN’T HAVE DONE WHAT HE DID,
THERE’S PROBABLY A FEW THINGS
WRONG.
WRONG. WE DON’T REALLY THINK THIS IS AN
IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE, BUT HERE’S
ANOTHER OPTION, HERE’S ANOTHER
ROAD TO GO DOWN.
THERE WASN’T ANY OF THAT.
THERE WASN’T ANY MAYBE YOU
SHOULD IMPEACH HIM BUT DONALD
TRUMP HAS DONE SOMETHING WRONG.
THERE’S BEEN NOTHING.
IT HAS BEEN A CONSISTENT DEFENSE
OF DONALD TRUMP’S BEHAVIOR.
>> MY QUESTION TO YOU IS WHY DO
YOU THINK THAT IS BECAUSE EITHER
IT MEANS THAT THEY CAN’T MAKE A
DEFENSE BECAUSE THEY KNOW
THEY’RE WRONG, OBVIOUSLY.
IT’S WHAT’S THE OLD RICHARD
PRYOR LINE, WHO ARE YOU GOING TO
BELIEVE, ME OR YOUR OWN LYING
EYES?
EYES? EVERYBODY SAW TRUMP ADMIT THAT
HE TRIED TO BRIBE THE PRESIDENT
OF UKRAINE IN ORDER TO GET DIRT
ON JOE BIDEN.
THAT’S IT.
THAT’S IT. THAT’S THE END OF THE STORY
RIGHT THERE.
RIGHT THERE. SO THE FACT THAT THEY EITHER
OBVIOUSLY CANNOT DEFEND THAT OR
THEY ACTUALLY DON’T BELIEVE IT’S
WRONG.
WRONG. AND IF THAT’S THE CASE --
>> IT’S A WHOLE DIFFERENT
PROBLEM.
PROBLEM. >> A PROBLEM, NO.
WE’RE IN DEEP, DEEP TROUBLE.
AND THAT’S WHY I SAW A SIGN
THERE PROTESTERS OUTSIDE THAT
SAID IMPEACH THEM ALL.
AND IT’S LIKE THIS IS REALLY
BIGGER THAN TRUMP NOW BECAUSE I
EXPECT THAT BEHAVIOR FROM TRUMP
WHAT HE DID.
AND LET ME TELL YOU ON THAT
SECRET SERVER IN THE WHITE HOUSE
WHERE THEY WERE HIDING THAT
UKRAINE CALL, THERE ARE A DOZEN
OTHER THINGS THAT HIS LAWYER
STAFFERS HAVE PLACED THERE IN
THESE LAST THREE YEARS, AND GOD
I WISH WE HAD A SUBPOENA TO SEE
WHAT ELSE IS ON THAT SERVER THAN
JUST THE UKRAINE CALL.
BUT I’M TELLING YOU THAT THE
FACT THEY ENABLED THIS AND THEY
THAT THE THEY SUPPORTED IT THEY
