The Talk Shows
June 18th, 2017
Guests to be interviewed today on major television talk shows:
FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network): Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.; Rep. Rodney David, R-Ill.; Jay Sekulow, a member of President Donald Trump's legal team.
MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Sens. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and Angus King, I-Maine; Sekulow.
FACE THE NATION (CBS): Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.; Rubio; Sekulow.
THIS WEEK (ABC): Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich; Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.; Douglas Lute, former U.S. ambassador to NATO.
STATE OF THE UNION (CNN): Sanders; Rubio; Sekulow.
Why is Sanders on the shows? Or Anus King?
Well, okay, but if you do not immediately understand why they got fired there are probably enough words in the English language to explain it to you. "They needed firing..." should be sufficient.
The important thing is the action. All this blah blah blah from the lifers in DC is not making America great again. 73 years ago, Eisenhower waited for the weather to clear before sending all of those boats to Normandy, but eventually all of the boats went to Normandy. We celebrate the anniversary of the landing, not the launch or the waiting period for the weather to clear.
Right on schedule, when listing all the violence the Dems are guilty of over the last year Wallace brings up Gabby Giffords. He forgot to mention the shooter was a Democrat.
Sekulo says Trump is not subject or target of investigation. Trump was responding to WaPo story, that cited five anonymous sources. Tapper is dumbfounded. He takes the tweet as an admission. Sekulow says, no, Trump took the WaPo story, and made a tweet taking that story as true.
Sekulow is taking idiot Wallace to the woodshed. What a lying piece of garbage.
Wallace is getting beat like a rented mule and showing his complete ignorance of the law.
I hear on Faux this morning WallAss is doing the “they all do it” meme concerning the assassination attempt. Ain’t going to watch that BS....
Wallace is calling Jay a liar and said he is trying to get a straight answer and will not let him answer. Got his interruption tactic going full speed.
I had to turn the channel on Chris and Jay. Chris is making a complete fool of himself and I couldn’t take it any more.
Wallace is condescending when he is the opposite. People who pretend they are smart, but are not, play a game with the viewers and in their own mind.
Wallace is an a**hole...
Nobody on the left is repentant in regard to their level of discourse, is my “shorthand” view. “You guys do it too” is justification for them to ramp it up, not to chill it.
Has Fox gone so downhill that they can’t line up the video with the audio? One of my pet peeves, moving lips and no sound and vice versa.
He did a great job on Tapper just now. Go Mr. JAY!
How’s the weather in Key West? Watching the storm?
That was the sorriest interview in a long time. Sekalow was his usual brilliant self and Chris was left in the dust and trying to rephrase every one of Jay’s answers.
But but but but ....
Tapper was calling Trump a liar for tweeting "I am under investigation ..." which the press took as confiramation. I love how they are unable to process offhand, sarcastic, taunting remarks. Another variation on the "literal" vs "what does he mean" theme. The press wants everybody else held to literal words, while they are free to dissemble and issue direct conclusions based on vague assertions.
Why not make the WaPo defend its story? They made the claim Trump is being investigated for obstruciton. The rest of the press can run with that if it wants to. Or it can play coy with it, if it wants to. Trump doesn;t owe them an answer on that question, investigations are secret, and if Trump told them a secret, he would be accused of leaking.
Why is Little Marco everywhere?
Sekulow was another great pick. He does not let them get away with any of their cheap parlor tricks and calls them out. He was pissed at Wallace for making client privilege look like a coverup.
So true...Waiting for breakfast in bed. Then I got to mow the grass...(ConservaTeen got to clean the pool).
Jay also did great against Chuckie on MTP. “Let me make this perfectly clear. The president is not under investigation!”
