This was a historic moment. And one that might mean that Donald Trump's legacy is that he goes down and the long lens of history is perhaps the worst president in American history.
Had Donald Trump not incited an insurrection against the United States, against the Capitol against the Senate and the House members. He still would have full control over the party.
If McConnell were to shift, it gives permission to every other Republican senator to consider that vote again.
My concern is actually more on January 20th, and it's whether or not Republicans really coalesce around a peaceful transfer of power.
Look, for Mitch McConnell it's been a marriage of necessity, not one of respect, and I think what you're seeing is Mitch McConnell knows what the rest of the country knows, which is Donald Trump is on his way out the door and Mitch…
I think there's a lot in this behavior by the president. We know his pardon authority is largely at his own discretion, and he is choosing to use it for his own political and personal network, which you could make the case is an abuse of…
At the end of the day, I think what we know, Tiffany, from Donald Trump's pardon activity is this. We are pushing up to the threshold where Donald Trump will make a decision whether or not to pardon possibly himself or members of his…
I think what we're seeing is Republicans today untethered from Donald Trump as independently acting in this way.
It's an inflection moment for Republicans where we see who they are untethered from Trump.
history judges followers just as harshly in this moment as it does the leader, Donald Trump.
Yes, Chris. The remarkable thing, though, in terms of just the electoral calculation is this is a strategy and a man in Donald Trump that lost the state of Georgia, right, the first Republican nominee to lose in almost 30 years. So, why…
The Constitution is keeping Donald Trump's powers in check. We will have an orderly transition. Joe Biden will be the next president. The courts are throwing out Donald Trump's contests.
What you're seeing is the very beginnings of the Republican Party becoming the opposition party again, which they are very good at.
The danger, the damning part of this, Chris, is that this is happening with the bully pulpit of the President of the United States.
You are the reason that 20 to 30 percent of the American public will forever question the legitimacy of the 2020 election.
Donald Trump's corruption has been contagious among people that we thought perhaps would be immune from it.
Donald Trump is leaving Joe Biden a hot dumpster fire on the national stage, first and foremost in a public health pandemic.
Joe Biden's might be pitch perfect for this demographic right now that is breaking his way, that could hand him the election in Florida, Pennsylvania, Arizona and across the country.
It's a perfect picture of Donald Trump just four, five days before an election. That is all about him. He has used the party from the very beginning. He is using the voters now for his own grievance campaign.
That is all about him. He has used the party from the very beginning. He is using the voters now for his own grievance campaign. But, you know, I was having this conversation with your colleague, Nicolle Wallace, about leaving voters out…
Leadership matters that the power of the bully pulpit is an awesome force in America. And there are thousands upon thousands of people that are trusting his word and his word is a lie. And it's risking their health and risking their lives.
The baseline is you being Trump's strategy is to lie. This is the thread throughout his entire career.
Donald Trump's attack on the integrity of mail balloting has decimated Republican strategy in the state.
