>> DAMAGING NEW REPORT OUT THAT
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS GROWING
FRUSTRATED WITH HIS STAFF IN THE
WHITE HOUSE, AND THEIR EFFORT TO
RUSH TO EXPLAIN SOMETHING THAT
THE PRESIDENT HAS SAID, THE
PRESIDENT WORRIES SO CALLED
CLEANUP CAMPAIGN, MAKES HIM LOOK
WEAK.
THE WHITE HOUSE HAS WALKED BACK
SELF-OF THE -- SEVERAL THE
PRESIDENT’S STATEMENTS.
NEXT COMMENTS ARE THE REMARKS HE
MADE YESTERDAY ABOUT GUN
CONTROL.
BIDEN SUGGESTED BANNING ONE OF
THE MOST COMMON AND WIDELY USED
HANDGUNS.
HIS REASONING INCLUDED
QUESTIONABLE CLAIMS ABOUT
BULLETS AS WELL AS THE SECOND
AMENDMENT.
>> 22 CALIBER BULLETS WILL LODGE
IN A LUNG.
WE CAN PROBABLY GET IT OUT TO
SAVE A LIFE.
A 9-MILLIMETER BULLET BLOWS THE
LUNG OUT OF THE BODY.
THE IDEA THESE HIGH CALIBER
WEAPONS, THERE’S NO RATIONAL
PLACES FOR IT IN TERMS OF
HUNTING.
THE CONSTITUTION AND SECOND
AMENDMENT IS NEVER ABSOLUTE.
YOU COULDN’T BUY A CANNON WHEN
THE SECOND AMENDMENT WAS BANNED.
>> THIS IS FROM FOXNEWS.COM.
HERE’S THE IMPLICATION,
ACCORDING TO THE ATF FIREARMS
MANUFACTURING AND EXPORT REPORT,
PISTOLS PRESOLD -- MAKING UP
ABOUT 42% OF PISTOLS PRODUCED
BETWEEN 2010 AND 2020.
IN OTHER WORDS, HIS ASSERTION
WILL BE BANNING HANDGUNS OF SOME
SORT.
I DON’T THINK WHAT HE INTENDED
TO SAY.
THERE MAY BE ANOTHER CLEANUP BY
THE STAFF.
WE’LL FIND OUT IN THE BRIEFING.
>> WE’RE GOING TO MOVE IT --
[ INDISCERNIBLE ]
LET’S GIVE AISLE SIX CREDIT.
THE PRESIDENT IS FRUSTRATED THAT
HIS COMMUNICATIONS TEAM BEHIND
THE SCENES ARE UNDERMINING HIM
AND DOING CLEANUPS.
HE’S THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF,
WHEN I SAY SOMETHING I MEAN IT.
YOU ARE NOT TO CLARIFY SOMETHING
THAT NEEDS CLARIFICATION.
THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME
ACCOUNTABILITY, BY THE WAY.
GIVEN THAT THIS PRESIDENT IS
POLLING AT -- THE ECONOMY IN THE
30s AND HIS HANDLING OF THAT,
20s ON INFLATION AND LOW 20s
ON HANDLING OF THE BORDER.
SOMEBODY GOT TO GO.
THAT’S CHIEF OF STAFF.
HE’S LIKE A BASEBALL MANAGER FOR
TEAM THAT’S 30-71.
THIS FAILED MESSAGING, THESE
FAILED POLICY PROPOSALS ARE NOT
GOING.
WE HAVE TO CHANGE THE TEAM
AROUND US NOW.
WHATEVER WE’VE BEEN DOING, IT’S
NOT WORKING.
>> TO THAT END, EMILY, NBC
REPORTING THAT RON KLAIN WILL
LIKELY BE OUT AFTER THE
MIDTERMS.
THERE WAS REALLY THIS
EYE-OPENING ASSERTION BURIED IN
HALF WAY OF THE PIECE.
BEYOND POLICY, BEYOND IS UNHAPPY
ABOUT A PATTERN DEVELOPED INSIDE
THE WEST WING.
HE MAKES A STATEMENT, ONLY TO
HAVE AIDES RUSH TO EXPLAIN THAT
HE MEANT SOMETHING ELSE.
HE TOLD ADVISORS THE CLEANUP
CAMPAIGN UNDERMINES HIM.
THE WHITE HOUSE DENIES.
IF BIDEN IS FRUSTRATED WITH HIS
AIDES CONTINUE TO CLEAN UP WHAT
HE SAYS, I DON’T BLAME HIM.
I DIDN’T RUN AROUND CLEANING UP
TRUMP STATEMENTS WHEN HE WOULD
SAY SOMETHING.
HE WAS THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF.
>> THE FALLACY HERE WITH THIS
STATEMENT, HE THINKS HE’S BEEN
CLEAR AND CONCISE TO BEGIN WITH.
THIS IS LIKE A 500-POUND PERSON
PUTTING ON A SWEATSHIRT.
IT’S NOT THE SWEATSHIRT, BUDDY.
IT’S NOT THE CLEANUPS.
IT’S WHAT COMES OUT OF YOUR
MOUTH TO BEGIN WITH.
IT’S ABSOLUTE HOGWASH.
THE FACT THAT HE THINKS THE
ISSUE IS THE CLEANUP CAMPAIGN,
HE SHOULD BE THANKING THEM.
I HEAR WHAT YOU’RE SAYING, IF HE WANTS TO SAY, NO, THE JARGON
WANTS TO SAY, NO, THE JARGON
THAT I SAY T , STANDS, SO BE IT.
THE ANCILLARY POINT THAT IT’S
FEEDING THE REPUBLICAN TALKING
POINTS.
THE WRITING IS ON THE WALL.
I’M THE ONE THAT’S SPEAKING THE
WORD SALAD.
I DON’T THINK WE NEED THEIR CLEANUP CAMPAIGN TO SHOW THAT
CLEANUP CAMPAIGN TO SHOW THAT
HE’S NOT FULLY IN COMMAND.
>> ON THE OTHER HAND, THESE
GAFFES HAVE DEEPLY SERIOUS
FOREIGN POLICY IMPLICATIONS.
>> UKRAINE WILL NEVER BE EVICTED
FROM RUSSIA, FOR GOD SAKE, THIS
MAN CANNOT REMAIN IN POWER.
>> ARE YOU WILLING TO GET
INVOLVED, MILITARILY TO DEFEND
TAIWAN IF IT COMES TO THAT?
>> YES.
>> YOU ARE?
>> THAT’S THE COMMITMENT WE
MADE.
RUSSIA WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.
IF IT INVADES.
IT DEPENDS ON WHAT IT DOES.
IT’S ONE THING IF IT’S A MINOR
INCURSION AND WE END UP HAVING
TO FIGHT ABOUT WHAT TO DO AND
NOT DO.
IF THEY DO WHAT THEY ARE CAPABLE
OF DOING, IT IS GOING TO BE A
DISASTER FOR RUSSIA.
>> Harris: WHEN YOU LISTEN TO
THAT, SAD PART IS, IT’S GOT
CRESCENDO TO IT.
WE STARTED WITH UKRAINE CAN
NEVER BE VICTIMMED FROM RUSSIA
ALL THE WAY UP TO ENCOURAGING
RUSSIA TO INVADE UKRAINE.
AT LEAST HE KNOWS WHICH COUNTRY
IS INVADING WHICH.
WE WENT FULL CIRCLE THERE.
THAT IS THE SIGN OF CONFUSION.
I’M SURE THAT IT’S NOT
LEADERSHIP.
IF IT’S CONFUSING TO US, CAN YOU
IMAGINE TRYING TO CLEAN UP -- I
DON’T THINK IT’S AISLE 5 AND 6,
I THINK IT’S THE WHOLE STORE.
CAN YOU IMAGINE IF YOU’RE TASKED
TO DOING THAT?
THERE’S GOING TO BE FRICTION
BEHIND THE SCENES.
I DON’T CARE ABOUT THAT.
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE TRUTH
IS.
THE UNFORTUNATE PART OF ALL OF
THIS IS, WE DON’T KNOW WHAT JOE
BIDEN MEANS AND WHAT HE DOESN’T
MEAN.
HE SAID THAT BIT ABOUT DEFENDING
TAIWAN MANY TIMES.
THREE NOW THAT WE WOULD GO TO
WAR FOR THEM IF CHINA MOVES IN.
WHICH ONE WAS THE CLEANUP
MISTAKE?
WHICH ONE WAS THE LIE?
AND WHICH ONE WAS THE TRUTH?
WE HAVE ENOUGH THERE NOW TO
BEGIN TO ASK THOSE QUESTIONS.
THAT’S REALLY IMPORTANT, BECAUSE
RON KLAIN IS ALL THAT CHANGES.
DON’T KNOW.
I WANT TO KNOW WHO’S WRITING THE
CARD.
WE HAVE IT TODAY WITH THE NEW
ZEALAND PRIME MINSTER, MADE NO
SENSE.
SOMEWHERE IN THERE WAS A BIT OF
TRUTH.
THAT’S THE QUESTION FOR US NOW.
LET’S FIND THE TRUTH.
>> KENNEDY, WE HAVE ABOUT 30
SECONDS.
>> I DON’T NEED THAT LONG.
IF HE’S DRIVEN WITH A
GRANDPARENT AND THEY KEEP THEIR
LEFFERT TURN -- LEFT TURN SIGNAL
ON, THAT’S WHAT WE’RE DEALING
WITH.
HE’S OH HE -- HE IS THE ONE IN
POWER.
THAT’S WHAT’S SCARY.
HE’S NOT ALL THERE.
HE’S GOT FULL CONTROL OF THE
DASHBOARD.
THAT SHOULD GIVE EVERYONE PAUSE.
IT GOES TO SHOW YOU WHY THE VICE
