with RW gas bags
it is frustrating watching he just had on some lawyer that has some History, with trump can't remember what
but she wouldn't go on if he brought up Stormy
he just let her go on and on
you can hear him say but bu but, she talked over his ass

Ordinarily I don't think Hayes is a great interviewer, but as a non-lawyer, I think he did OK with this 'piece of work.'

I had to read the legal analysis several times to understand what Bob Bauer was getting at...thus the excerpt - have at it...
Be well all, we will get through this...
This is the conclusion of the article
Or, as appears increasingly possible, Mr. Trump and his lawyers can turn for inspiration to the Nixon presidency and the Watergate era and make his case for the presidents immunity from criminal investigation and prosecution. There is little reason to believe that the results will be any different 44 years later.

she was basically saying anyone who doesn't agree with her do not know the law

(9,670 posts)His legal background would have carved her over-simplified indignant viewpoints into tiny pieces.
Chris acts as incredulous as I would, hearing such nutbuggery coming from a frazzled-out righty. I think it's best to do what he did: let her talk, then let the panel dissect it with her out of earshot. She would never concede a point to anyone anyway; so why bother?

Raine
(30,540 posts)who ever brings up the environment and global warming. Hayes has a different style he's is not confrontational, he lets them talk and dig their own grave with their mouths.
