And right below that is ``Ickes's union representation.'' We know that one of the unions and one of the individuals that Mr. Ickes had a relationship with now now somebody who has been under congressional investigation, and where we have FBI data calling him a criminal associate of the mob, this person who Mr. Ickes was associated with. I see they were assembling a binder with summary and key documents with regard to that union representation. Well, since the White House has had this direct relationship with this person, Mr. Coia, who has been called by the FBI a criminal associate of the mob, that could be a very damaging kind of question that is raised as a part of the scandal memo prepared at the White House. In fact, ``ABC News'' has done quite an expose on this. It turns out the scandal itself was under active investigation by the White House Counsel's Office on December 13, 1994, and it is highlighted in this White House task list.

I was wrong five years ago. I told Chuck Todd this in the past on 'Meet the Press.' I didn't think Donald Trump would govern as a conservative. I didn't think he'd be commonsense, not having that track record. I was wrong. His regulatory…
