-And like the narrative
of the press,
that President Trump
wants to dig up dirt
on his 2020 opponent --
what he wants is he wants
an accounting
of what happened in 2016.
-I understand that a way
to avoid answering a question
is to attack us in the press.
I'm well aware of that.
-No, Chuck,
I just want the truth.
The American people
want the truth.
-So, do you not trust the FBI?
You don't trust the CIA?
-No!
No, I don't.
-I'm just very confused here.
-Absolutely not.
After Peter Strzok
and Lisa Page?
-Okay.
-This President needs
to be impeached, Jake,
just based on
what he himself has said.
And Republicans better
get behind that.
-Because the giant sucking sound
will be this impeachment
query sucking every other piece
of debate both in Washington
and outside Washington
out the door.
And the question is,
from an elitist standpoint,
should 100 senators make
the call on whether or not
this President stays in office,
or should we,
in fact, have that query
come next November?
-There are millions of Americans
who do business overseas,
all kinds of activities.
Do you think it's just a
coincidence that the one person
that he has asked
a foreign leader to investigate,
specifically by name --
"Investigate this person" --
just happens to be his chief
rival for the 2020 campaign?
-But, Chris, you're missing
the whole reason for why.
He did that because
he has knowledge
of possible corruption.
-It's his job to make sure
there's not corruption.
So, when the Vice President's
son is hired by this company
that Mr Volker told us had
a long history of corruption,
was linked to the government
in Ukraine,
I think that's the President
doing his job.
-We don't let presidents
of the United States do this.
We don't let them take
their official office
and merge it
with their re-election arm.
This entire country should be
scared that in a moment
when we need patriots,
what we are getting is blind,
partisan loyalty.
-We have some of our Republican
colleagues that are
basically treating this
as a joke,
with very few exceptions.
And they are the ones
that's gonna matter
because we're gonna need
something like
20 Republican votes
to get up to 67.
We need more Republicans
to point out this emperor
has no clothes.
-I don't think anyone in America
really believes,
except people maybe in the press
and some Democrats in Congress,
really believe
that the President
of the United States thinks
China is gonna investigate.
-I doubt if the China comment
was serious,
to tell you the truth.
-You don't take the President
at his word?
-No, the President loves
to go out
on the White House driveway.
I haven't talked to him
about this.
I don't know what
the President was thinking,
but I knew he loves
to bait the press.
-People at this time I think
really need to speak out
and speak up.
And it's clear that
the Republicans in the Senate
are just going along.
I've had many issues with
the Democrats over the years,
but I have never seen anything
like the Republicans right now
as far as just
misrepresentations of the truth
because of what Donald Trump
has done.
