Well ultimately,
it comes down to why did he have all that secret stuff at Mar A Lago.
I know his team has said that they declassified it but
that's news to the agencies that those documents belong to
>> Steve Doocy,
who make no mistake about it.
He is a right winger.
He is conservative.
He has been at Fox news forever.
But every once in a while he decides to switch things up and
actually ask some tough questions in regard to Donald Trump's conduct.
And in this case he's talking to Governor Christie gnome of South Dakota about
Trump's handling of classified documents.
Kristi Noem's of course is a Trump lapdog and will provide cover for
him no matter what he does.
And Doocy apparently wasn't having it in the context of this interview.
So, let's watch more of it.
>> In total he had apparently three classified documents in his desk and
then the stuff as Brian detailed on the floor,
it shows five yellow folders marked top secret.
And another one with that says secret SCI which means sense it
compartmentalized information.
Those are the biggest secrets in the world.
Why would he?
And apparently the president former president went through him in January.
Why wouldn't he say you know what I really need to turn that back over.
Why did he have all that stuff at Mar A Lago?
>> Well that's why I think it's important that this is transparent and
that we do have someone who's outside of the DOJ looking at this and
talking to people, what is this information.
We don't know what was in there.
We don't know that.
I think believe President Trump declassified all this information.
Let's find out really what the process is.
What is right, what's precedent that other presidents have followed and
make sure that this is governor.
>> I don't think any president has ever carted off that many documents to
their house after they left the presidency.
>> [LAUGH] >> Yeah.
[LAUGH] >> Look, I don't say this often.
Deuces, right?
[LAUGH] Deuces, right, okay.
And the declassification garbage that gnome is repeating,
regurgitating here is nonsense.
It's already been debunked so many times.
>> There is no debunk there He bunked it before she said it again.
>> True, but she said it again, yeah.
So just real quick though.
No evidence has emerged that Trump while President declassified all the material
that wound up at Mar A Lago and
Trump lost the power to declassify when Joe Biden became president.
So, it's just we know this.
What's amazing to me is there used to be a time in this country John where,
people would be kind of terrified of going on television and
just lying as brazenly as Republicans do today because it's so easy to fact check.
But today fact checks don't matter.
Like they don't care.
They'll just lie.
And even if you confront them with reality,
they're just like I'm just gonna repeat it.
That's it.
>> Yeah, 100%.
Well, we saw it right there.
He said, the thing about no, he didn't declassify it, there was no evidence they
actually did that before she made the claim that she made the claim anyway.
Probably because she knows that the audience is probably furious
with him right now and they want to hear me tell the lie again.
It'll make them feel much more comfortable if they hear me tell the lie.
But I love seeing what he did.
He didn't just,
sometimes they'll throw out one little thing that's sort of challenging or
that like kind of acknowledges reality and that's like, that's exciting.
The first time he did it, I love that like Ainsley Earhardt shift in her seat and
kill me.
Like you got to prepare for it.
Like the broncos starting to buck Lord.
So, yeah, they're all uncomfortable.
So I like that.
I like the in the second clip when he says,
why did he have three top secret documents in his desk.
She immediately does a little smile a little like, so
we have to play this game where you acknowledge reality.
So that's funny.
And then so she she did lie.
That's true.
But she also did a couple of the other things that they do.
She immediately turned to well and it's important that this is transparent,
okay, sure.
That's doesn't really seem to be benefiting your side and
we need to find out what's in the documents.
We do.
I do think that's important.
But I also think for
the law not super important because the documents were top secret.
You already know that and do not pretend for a second that you would care if this
was Clinton or Buddha Djedje someday that you'd care about the content.
The fact that it's illegal, would be more than enough for you.
And thus I'm using your own future standard against you.
And then she also said, and
let's also look into the president of other presidents.
Cuz maybe we can find something that we can stretch to try to make it seem as if,
well, this is only as bad as what I don't know, Johnson did like the law only
matters if we could never find another person who did it.
And even then we'll come up with something.
So he's doing what he's supposed to do.
And he's also demonstrating that sometimes saying the thing you're not
supposed to say is so freeing that he doubled and triple dipped.
And by the end, the last thing he said,
he was sort of smiling like he was happy with himself and he's like,
my God, I am being so naughty today >> By telling the truth.
>> Yeah, he was like invigorating to him.
And so I'd like to see it.
Let's encourage him >> No more of that.
More of that, right?
Like look, I just, I can't believe I'm saying this,
but it shows you how far gone the Republican party is.
I long for the days when republicans would accept evidence,
would accept that there is reality and lies and we might disagree on policies.
That's fine.
It's ok to disagree on policies.
And so, it's ok to debate those issues, but
at least there's a foundation of truth at which you can begin the debate.
But, we're now dealing with a party that just denies reality.
They know they're denying reality.
Like, no, she's lying.
But, this is what we're dealing with in the country,
where there's a bunch of spineless people running around who care more about their
own political careers in their political futures than they do about the country.
In fact, there was a really great comment by one of our viewers that I wanted
to read because, you know, she made a point about the Republican Party
puts themselves and their money before country every single day.
And it's amazing because while they do that,
they also purport to be the most patriotic ones.
They purport to be the ones who put country before everything.
No, you don't.
If you genuinely care about country before your own personal career or interests.
Then you would not be providing cover for a man who clearly broke the law here and
took highly classified sensitive documents home with him to Mar A Lago, for what?
We still don't know what he did it for.
And then when he had multiple opportunities to comply,
he just refused to do it.
He refused.
>> Yeah, it's like I would like to know why,
from the point of view the law it doesn't matter.
It's just purely like I'm curious.
I'd like to know why you broke the law so many times.
But yeah, we just moved, we moved past so many of those earlier defenses.
The idea that they were going to plant stuff.
Well apparently didn't have to plant stuff because Trump is freely accepting that
that is stuff that he actually had the idea that he cooperated.
Remember Janine Pirro like yell slurring, he complied.
He was working with them.
No, he really, really wasn't working with them.
They went and they looked in the room and then you went through and
looked at everything.
And you lied about what was in there and you left some of the evidence of your
crimes in that storeroom, which was particularly bold, credit for that.
But then you took some of it and apparently moved it to your desk or
to wherever you were obviously trying to evade their attempts to find this stuff.
There's no question about whether the law was broken.
We've seen the piles of evidence and there was no question that he knew that he was
breaking the law, because he was working so hard to try to hide the fact that he
was past all that stuff >> To be fair to Trump.
He is really smart because in the case there would be a raid.
He knew that the FBI agents would never look in his desk
>> [LAUGH]
>> Like dumbest, and
like I can't get over how dumb he is.
Like he's just not, he's not bringing his best okay.
