RICHARD BLUMENTHAL IS A
SENATOR THAT IS ON THE
DEMOCRATIC SIDE, HE THINKS
COMEY GETTING FIRED IS A
DISASTER, HERE HE IS ON TV.
>>I'VE BEEN CALLING FOR THE
DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL TO
APPOINT A SPECIAL PERSECUTOR,
HE'S THE ONE TO DO IT IN THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE BECAUSE
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL HAS RECUSED
HIMSELF, AND I STILL HOPE THAT
ROD ROSENHEIM WILL REDEEM
HIMSELF AND APPOINT A SPECIAL
PROSECUTOR.
THAT IS EASILY
POSSIBLE UNDER EXISTING
REGULATIONS.
WHAT IS NEEDED IS
AN INDEPENDENT, OBJECTIVE,
IMPARTIAL PROSECUTOR, BECAUSE
ONLY A PROSECUTOR CAN BRING
CRIMINAL CHARGES AND HOLD
ACCOUNTABLE THE PEOPLE WHO MIGHT
HAVE COMMITTED TREASON OR FRAUD
OR LIED TO THE FBI, AND
OBVIOUSLY THE PRESIDENT IS A
POTENTIAL TARGET.
INDEED, I
THINK ONE OF THE VERY REVEALING
PARTS OF JIM COMEY'S TESTIMONY
AT THE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE WAS
WHEN HE REFUSED TO RULE OUT THE
PRESIDENT AS A POTENTIAL TARGET.
>>WOW.
RICHARD BLUMENTHAL AT
THE END IS REFERRING TO WHEN
COMEY WAS IN FRONT OF THE SENATE
AND BLUMENTHAL ASKED HIM IF HE
COULD RULE OUT THE PRESIDENT AS
A POTENTIAL TARGET, AND COMEY
RULE HIM OUT.
OF COURSE TRUMP
GETS MET AT THAT AND THROWS A
TEMPER TANTRUM.
WILL HE ATTACK
BLUMENTHAL ON ANY OF THE
SUBSTANCE?
OF COURSE NOT, HE
WILL ATTACK HIM ON SOME THING
RANDOM.
WHEN BLUMENTHAL WAS
RUNNING IN 2010 THERE WAS A
SO-CALLED CONTROVERSY ABOUT HIS
RECORD IN VIETNAM, HE SAID HE
SERVED DURING THE VIETNAM WAR,
WHICH IS TRUE, HE WAS A MARINE
RESERVIST.
REMEMBER WHEN
LIBERALS SAID BUSH DIDN'T
ACTUALLY GO TO VIETNAM, HE WAS
IN THE NATIONAL GUARD RESERVE,
REPUBLICANS WERE LIKE, HOW DARE
YOU BESMIRCH THE OWNER OF THE
RESERVES?
BLUMENTHAL HAD A
SIMILAR SITUATION, BUT A MUCH
BETTER ONE THAN GEORGE W. BUSH
WAS -- LET'S SEE IF DONALD TRUMP
BELIEVES THAT'S THE SAME THING
AS SERVING IN VIETNAM AND HONORS
THE RESERVES.
HE TWEETS --
>>-- 
NO HE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT
THAT --
>>THAT'S THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES SAYING THAT A
SENATOR CRIED LIKE A BABY.
>>WE HAVE ELECTED A CHILD.
THIS
IS WHAT THIRD-GRADERS DO. AND
I'M SORRY, THIRD-GRADERS ACROSS
THE COUNTRY, FOR BESMIRCHING
YOUR REPUTATION.
AND ONE FINAL
NOTE, ON VIETNAM, BLUMENTHAL WAS
IN THE RESERVES IN THE MARINES,
OKAY?
WHAT WAS TRUMP DOING?
FIVE
DEFERMENTS.
HE GOT FOUR FOR
BEING IN SCHOOL, THE FIFTH ONE,
HE WAS ALREADY OUT OF SCHOOL AND
HE SAID I HAVE BONE SPURS.
MY
DADDY WROTE ME A LETTER, GOT A
DOCTOR TO WRITE ME A LETTER,
SAYING I HAVE BONE SPURS.
THEY
ASKED HIM DURING THE CAMPAIGN,
WHICH WHAT WAS IT?
THE RIGHT ONE
OR THE LEFT ONE, I FORGOT.
THAT
SOUNDS LIKE IT WAS A
DEBILITATING CONDITION.
DID YOU
CRY LIKE 
A BABY?
