Why is Donald Trump, a man so tough he says he would rush into a school shooting unarmed, right? Why is he such a wuss and a wimp about Russia? Why? What do the Russians have and maybe it's nothing. Maybe you're right, maybe just nothing…
The President hasn't said anything. When is the last time when we said that sentence? Donald Trump has been utterly silent about the Manafort case. This is very smart, very smart.
It's a pretty small issue. Yes. He's probably the only person who could do this.
If he praises and defends Manafort the way he did with General Kelly for a while, then I think a lot of fair amount of people are going to say, oh he's setting him up for pardon, which even his ally Lindsey Graham, the Republican senator…
If you want to cut down on mass shootings, an assault weapon is built for mass shooting with a high capacity clip.
But he put Justin Gorsuch on the court, who is I believe is committed to overturning Roe versus Wade now on abortion on a small cases.
I will say despite all of that, President Trump cleaned up with Evangelical voters.
But first, can I just say that this is the best infrastructure week ever. I'm just so glad we're focused on rebuilding our crumbling roads and bridges.
He swore an oath to faithfully execute the laws. He will not faithfully execute that law.
This was an attack on the United States of America. Not on just the Democrats, that was this time, it could be you the next time.
The president should have learned about it when the chief of staff fired Mr. Porter. This is on General Kelly. He knew about it, according to Dana's reporting and he did nothing.
I wouldn't want to put the troops out. It seems to me a whole lot of work and hassle so that President Trump -- look, we'll buy him a pair of sunglasses and some epaulets.
What President Clinton said is that the world is always more impressed by the power of our example than the example of our power.
It's true. The federal judiciary is stacked with fake judges. Obviously the media is fake news. You guys can't be believed.
From the reporting, the FBI did their job, right? They did the background check and they are exhaustive.
This is an instant firing offense, and the fact that General Kelly did not protect our country from someone who is a wife beater and as potential victim of blackmail.
General Kelly, as Jack points out, defended America in uniform for decades. He should be respected for that. He did not defend America in this case. He let down his guard. He let down his country. He let down our President.
The president could easily help almost 700,000 people who deserve to stay here and that all Americans want to stay here, and get a political win. But he can't get out of his own way because he's competent.
Among Trump voters, 68 percent of Trump voters want to regularize the status of the Dreamers.
The late great Mario Cuomo famously said, we campaign in poetry, we govern in prose.
Whatever happens, the American taxpayers are going to have to pay for it.
This is I think -- it's why he's down to 38 percent. He only had 46 percent when he won the election, he's down to 38 percent now.
What's different here is this isn't about policies. Nobody is saying the President should move left or right or sign this trade bill or veto that bill, they're all saying he's unfit to serve.
