Willie Geist: Dems Calling John Dean to Testify Could Make Trump's 'Clown Show' Point
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 06/04/2019 10:20:46 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

With Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski away on a belated honeymoon, Willie Geist has been hosting Morning Joe this week. Today, Willie availed himself of his role to take a serious shot at the Democrats' plan to have John Dean, of Watergate fame, testify next week before the House Judiciary Committee.

Discussing the matter with Kasie Hunt, Geist first suggested that the only point of having Dean testify was "for symbolism." A bit later, he unleashed this zinger:

"Unless John Dean has new information, or can testify specifically about something that happened in the Mueller investigation, does this not add to President Trump’s argument that it's just a big a clown show?"

Earthshaking news. John Dean was doing some gardening in his back yard, and discovered a pumpkin stuffed with top secret communications between Trump and Putin.

A 2016 version of THE PUMPKIN PAPERS. Wow.

I would love it, if, some Republican asked old turncoat Johnny, how his wife Maureen is doing. Watergate ... and John Dean... What did Dean know and when did ‘he’ know it? And who is the Maureen, in the attempt to frame candidate Trump, and then President Trump? Nixon was a saint, compared to any of today's libtards, including that porker Nadler.

Might as well being in Monica Lewinsky. I’m sure sure she can give us spectacular impeachment insight.

Nixon, now and forever ....

More than 2,200 hours of tape recordings from the Nixon White House now are available

Dig it. The heirs of Warren G Harding have managed to keep his personal papers unavailable.

“The Harding-Phillips love letters remain under an Ohio court protective order that expires in 2023, 100 years after Harding’s death, after which the content of the letters may be published or reviewed.”

Poor Nixon. He’s online but Harding’s not dead enough.

I think it’s a great idea. It will give the Republicans on the committee plenty of opportunities to ask John Dean if Nixon ever tried to get the FBI and CIA to spy on the opposition party, or if Nixon would have been able to escape serving jailtime if he had.

"With Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski away on a belated honeymoon..."

Where'd they go? London, like the President and First Lady? Wouldn't surprise me since they're jealous twits.

I guess they could dig up Richard Nixon and pretend he is resigning again.

Everything else they are doing is “pretend-like.”

I laughed out loud when I heard John Dean was being called to “testify.”

They were gonna get the bitch, but she had been fired from the Watergate Committee by Chief Counsel Jerry Zeifman.

Wasn't she beautiful? BTW, the guy on the left was Sam Donaldson {with real hair}.

They also intend to call former Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig to testify. Mr. Selig is expected to confirm that Donald Trump once taped a baseball game without the expressed written consent of the Commissioner of Baseball, which Democrats hope to use as grounds for impeachment.

Willie Geist occasionally shows some common sense.

John Dean: ordered the Watergate break-ins to cover up his girlfriend’s involvement in a sexual blackmail ring run out of the DNC offices, then blamed it on Nixon when Ted Kennedy had the prosecutor make him an offer he couldn’t refuse.

Apparently John Dean is going to testify that Donald Trump erased the 18 and a half minutes on the tape.

"John Dean? WTF?"

Good old John is coming forward to inform America that it was not James McCord who put the tape on the door jamb in the Watergate Hotel ...........

Donald Trump did it as a favor to Roger Stone.
