>> Sandra: WE’RE GETTING NEW REACTION THIS MORNING TO THE
PRESIDENT’S STATE OF THE UNION
ADDRESS LAST NIGHT BEFORE A
DIVIDED CONGRESS IN THE CHAMBER
WHERE HE WAS IMPEACHED BACK IN
DECEMBER.
DECEMBER. KELLYANNE CONWAY IS COUNSELOR
TO THE PRESIDENT JOINING US
LIVE FROM THE WHITE HOUSE NOW.
GOOD MORNING.
GOOD MORNING. WHAT IS THE PRESIDENT SAYING
THIS MORNING AS HE SEES THE
REACTION WE’RE ALL SEEING THIS
MORNING TO THAT SPEECH?
>> THE PRESIDENT KNOWS THE
REACTION CAME FROM THE AMERICAN
PUBLIC LAST NIGHT.
I SAW CBS POLL SHOWING
INDEPENDENTS APPROVED OF HIS
SPEECH.
SPEECH. IT MAKES SENSE.
INDEPENDENTS BY THEIR NAIRT
REJECT PARTISANSHIP.
REJECT PARTISANSHIP. THE PRESIDENT WAS TALKING LAST
NIGHT ABOUT THE GREAT AMERICAN
COMEBACK.
COMEBACK. THAT INCLUDES PEOPLE OF ALL
WALKS OF LIFE.
I THINK IT’S VERY DISAPPOINTING
FOR PEOPLE TO LITERALLY WATCH
DEMOCRATS SITTING ON THEIR
HANDS.
HANDS. NANCY PELOSI SHREDDING THE
MEMORY OF THE MUELLER,
SHREDDING THE AIRMAN, SHREDDING
THE -- PEOPLE SITTING ON THEIR
HANDS WHEN A CRYING MAN WITH
CANCER WAS AWARDED THE
PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM.
HOW PARTISAN THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY BECAME.
PARTY BECAME. THE ARMCHAIR PSYCHIATRIST,
SHIFT THEIR CRAFT TO NANCY
PELOSI?
PELOSI? WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH HER?
SHE LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS READING
THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY MENU ALL
NIGHT GOING THROUGH EVERY
SINGLE PAGE AND THEN TO -- SHE
SHOULD EITHER BE CENSURED OR
THE SAME WOMAN WHO LED A
RESOLUTION IN THE HOUSE TO
DENOUNCE A TWEET LAST SUMMER
THERE OUGHT TO BE A SENATE
RESOLUTION DENOUNCING HER
BEHAVIOR LAST NIGHT.
>> Sandra: IS THAT YOUR FEELING
OR THE PRESIDENT’S FEELING THIS
MORNING?
MORNING? >> YOU SEE WHERE I AM.
I WILL TELL YOU THAT’S THE
FEELING OF MANY PEOPLE WHO
BELIEVE IN THE DECORUM OF THE
UNITED STATES CONGRESS.
SANCTITY OF THE STATE OF THE
UNION.
UNION. I’VE BEEN HERE FROM DAY ONE.
THE FOURTH ADDRESS TO THE
NATION THE PRESIDENT DELIVERED
INCLUDING THE JOINT SESSION
BACK IN 17.
FOR FOUR CONSECUTIVE YEARS THE
PRESIDENT HAS 90 TO 120 MINUTES
OR SO ALONE WITH THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE ON THEIR COMPUTER
SCREENS, IN THEIR LIVING ROOM
AND PLACES OF WORK AND PHONES
IN THE RADIO.
OVER THE RADIO.
YOU KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING?
SPEAKING TO THEM UNFILTERED,
UNINTERRUPTED AND UNINSULTED BY
THESE PEOPLE WHO CRITICIZE HIM
ALL DAY LONG.
IT HAS WORKED FOR HIM EVERY
TIME BECAUSE PEOPLE GET TO HEAR
WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THEIR
COUNTRY.
COUNTRY. THEY DON’T GET THE INFORMATION.
FOR THE FOURTH YEAR THE CONTENT
OF THE SPEECH DIDN’T LEAK AHEAD
OF TIME AND I’M HAPPY TO SAY
THE GUESTS HAVE NEVER LEAKED.
THOSE GUESTS AND FIRST LADY FOX
IS A VERY FINE PROCESS
COMMANDED WITH A SMALL GROUP OF
US.
US. AS YOU PROBABLY RUN EVERYTHING
AROUND HERE.
AROUND HERE. THE GUESTS HAVE NEVER LEAKED.
>> Sandra: I HAVE A LOT I WANT
TO GET TO.
THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS TWO
BIG HEADLINES THAT CAME OUT THE
BOOK END MOMENTS OF THAT SPEECH
LAST NIGHT YOU’VE ALREADY
MENTIONED ONE OF THEM, NANCY
PELOSI TEARING UP THE
PRESIDENT’S STATE OF THE UNION
ADDRESS.
ADDRESS. THAT WAS BEFORE HER AS SHE
STOOD NEXT TO THE VICE
PRESIDENT.
PRESIDENT. THE PRESIDENT HAD HIS BACK TO
HER AT THE TIME.
WHAT DID HE SAY WHEN HE LEARNED
THAT WAS HAPPENING AND THAT
HAPPENED?
HAPPENED? >> THAT’S TYPICAL HER.
WE’VE SEEN IT HERE AGAIN AND
AGAIN IN THE SITUATION ROOM,
SAW IT IN THE CABINET ROOM
TWICE.
TWICE. SAW IT IN ANOTHER MEETING.
SHE HAS A TEMPER TANTRUM AND
LEAVES.
LEAVES. NOW THE COUNTRY SAW IT.
THERE IS NO SILLY PICTURE OF
HER STANDING WITH THE MEN
AROUND THE CABINET.
>> Sandra: LET ME ASK YOU ABOUT
THE MOMENT.
THE MOMENT. >> AMERICA SAW A CHILD RIPPING
UP A STATE OF THE UNION THAT IS
MEANT TO BE DELIVERED TO THE
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE. >> Sandra: THERE WAS A MOMENT
BEFORE THE SPEECH WHEN THE
PRESIDENT WALKED INTO THE ROOM
AND HE WAS GREETED BY THE VICE
PRESIDENT AND THE HOUSE SPEAKER.
SHE EXTENDED HER HAND TO THE
PRESIDENT.
PRESIDENT. HE SEEMINGLY SNUBBED THE
HANDSHAKE.
HANDSHAKE. HE DIDN’T SHAKE THE HAND OF THE
VICE PRESIDENT.
VICE PRESIDENT. WE DIDN’T SEE HIS HAND EXTENDED.
WAS THAT PURPOSEFUL ON THE PART
OF THE PRESIDENT?
>> I’M NOT SURE IT WAS
PURPOSEFUL OR IF HE EVEN
NOTICED HER OR HER EXTENDED
HAND.
HAND. WHO CARES?
WHO CARES? SHE IS ONE OF THE FACES OF
IMPEACHMENT.
IMPEACHMENT. SHE WANTS TO IMPEACH THE
PRESIDENT ON THE ARTICLES.
THEY MADE FOOLS OF THEMSELVES.
IN LESS THAN 48 HOURS.
FOLLOW ME.
FOLLOW ME. IN LESS THAN 48 HOURS FROM
MONDAY AT 9:00 P.M. WHEN THE
CAUCUS RESULTS WERE SUPPOSED TO
COME IN TO WEDNESDAY AT 4:00
P.M. THIS PRESIDENT WOULD HAVE
HIT THE TRIFECTA.
THE OTHER PARTY WE HAVE NO IDEA
WHO WON THE CAUCUS.
HE DELIVERS AN UNBELIEVABLE
STATE OF THE UNION TO THE
NATION AND THE WORLD THAT
GUESTS, THE PEOPLE’S STATE OF
THE UNION REPRESENTING THE BEST
OF AMERICAN OPTIMISM AND TODAY
HE WILL BE ACQUITTED.
DONALD TRUMP WILL FOREVER BE
ACQUITTED.
ACQUITTED. SHE IS IRRELEVANT.
>> Sandra: STENY HOYER WAS
ASKED AND PRESSED BY REPORTER
AFTER NANCY PELOSI RIPPED UP
THE SPEECH LAST NIGHT AND HERE
IS HOW HE RESPONDED.
I’LL GET YOUR REACTION.
>> LET’S HOPE THEY DIDN’T
DISTRACT YOU FROM THE LACK OF
FACTUAL ACCURACY IN THE SPEECH.
THE DIVISIVENESS OF THE SPEECH
AND THE BLATANT APPEAL TO HIS
BASE AND VERY SIMILAR TO HIS
SPEECHES IN HIS RALLIES.
>> Sandra: THE MAJORITY LEADER
THERE HE HOPES THAT MOMENT
DOESN’T DISTRACT WHAT THEY ARE
SAYING ARE INACCURACIES IN THE
PRESIDENT’S SPEECH AND TAKING
ON SOME OF THE THINGS THE
PRESIDENT TOUTED ABOUT THE
ECONOMY AND ALL.
TWO OTHER THINGS I WANT TO GET
TO.
TO. IOWA.
IOWA. WHAT IS THE RESULTS FROM THE
WHITE HOUSE WITH THE RESULTS?
WHAT DO YOU SEE AS THE STATE OF
THE 2020 RACE?
>> I WON’T TALK TOO MUCH ABOUT
THAT HERE.
THAT HERE. IN IOWA I THINK IT TELLS YOU
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT THE STATE OF THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
DEMOCRATIC PARTY. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHO THEIR
NOMINEE WILL BE.
WE GOT A PREVIEW LAST NIGHT HOW
THE TWO CONVENTIONS WILL
OPERATE.
OPERATE. DONALD TRUMP’S CONVENTION WILL
BE THE PEOPLE’S CONVENTION.
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION WILL BE
WHAT YOU SAW LAST NIGHT.
A FOUR-DAY VERSION OF THE NANCY
PELOSI RIPPING UP THE
100-YEAR-OLD AIRMEN AND
MUELLER’S MEMORY.
MUELLER’S MEMORY. AN ANTI-TRUMP GRIEVANCE FEST?
IN PHILADELPHIA IN 2016 IT WAS
A VICTIMOLOGY.
A VICTIMOLOGY. I WANT TO PUSH BACK ON LEADER
HOYER IN THIS WAY.
THEY’RE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF
THE SCHOOL CHOICE SCHOLARSHIP.
THEY’RE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF
ELLI BORN AT 21 WEEKS 6 DAYS.
UPSET BECAUSE THEY’RE ON THE
WRONG SIDE OF THE TUSKEGEE
AIRMAN AND REUNITING A MILITARY
FAMILY.
FAMILY. THEY’RE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF
HISTORY AND THESE ISSUES THAT
ANIMATE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
SANDRA, WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT HOW
PEOPLE FEEL 74% SAY THEY’LL BE
FINANCIALLY BETTER OFF NEXT
YEAR ACCORDING TO THE GALLUP
POLL WHERE THE PRESIDENT HAS A
RECORD HIGH APPROVAL RATING.
>> Sandra: THERE IS A VOTE ON
HIS IMPEACHMENT IN THE SENATE
THIS AFTERNOON.
THIS AFTERNOON. LIKELY ACQUITTED.
