I could listen to Andrew Weisman all day long. 🙋♀️
I stay away from most news stories about this situation, but this calm, civil, reasoned discussion is a huge breath of fresh air to me. Thank you.
This video interview had a great deal in common w the news coverage + analysis I've consumed about this topic.
But then, I don't view Fox "news" channels as that coverage tends to be very sesationalistic.
Staying away won't help with your personel education of current events.
@@BonafideGail Hmm, rather heavy-handed judgement and scolding here. But if it makes you feel better, I don't stay away from reading about new events, I stay away from videos. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear in my original post.
Some analysts tend toward extremes. One can always count on Weissmann to give a studied, calm, and easy-to-understand analysis.
Yes, Weissman is always excellent.
Thank you for saying that this is completely strange to even have a conversation about a former president threatening a prosecutor, judge, and their families.
Donald Trump the former guy is the greatest con man who ever lived. Name a greater one. Just one.
Weissmann is a legal genius and I so enjoy hearing him speak.
Yeah that’s why so many of his cases were overturned by federal courts
Reasoned analysis sans hyperbole. Thank you!
We're still wondering how Trump is still walking free.
I appreciate Andrew's sober analysis.
Margret love you on firing line, huge fan of Andrew Weismann.
He's just so good and approachable.
Margaret, you just get better and better.
Doubt she reads any of these comments, but I'd have to agree.
She's reading from a list of prepared questions. Are you trying to say she's pretty ?
I want to hear Weissman's opinion on whether or not he believes garland will follow through on Jack Smith's recommendations if they include indictments of Trump and members of Congress.
I'm surprised PBS has kept her around, you think she'd be full-time at CNN eventually. She could've run for office, it runs in her blood too.
Prison Prison Prison ASAP
I have issues with this interview for the reason all of the Regulatory, Law Enforcement, and Justice Agencies, going back at least 24 years, prosecute NO special interests. And the ones that are prosecuted, eventually get off or get a slap on the wrist and a sweetheart deal. And if by chance they do get convicted, there will be a pardon or a supreme court verdict that overrules it.
24?
@@michielpatrick4583 Since Bill Clinton, probably Bush Senior, so it is now about 28 - 32 Years
I for one, absolutely believe trump is unfit for civil society
How about Trump being the first POTUS to commit crimes while in office or after holding the office of the Presidency?
Does that not supersede indictment for such crimes?
Didn’t Nixon commit crimes while in office? He wasn’t prosecuted because Watergate Special Prosecutor Leon Jaworski wouldn’t ask the grand jury to indict and then President Gerald Ford pardoned him after he resigned.
Absolutely *love Andrew Weissman,* but for pity's sake, when will American journalists stop parroting that ridiculous *_QUOTE_* thing every time they recount a "She said..." or "He said..." 🗣
The very presence of the word *'said'* _already_ tells us it's a quote. Doing otherwise just sounds jarring.
Talk like a human being, please. There are far more natural ways of letting us know it's a direct quote - using vocal tone, pause, power, pitch etc. It's what the voice is _meant_ for.
Nixon should of been charged
I love him speaking like trump can get a fair trial in manhattan
Well, the forthcoming documents trial will be in Florida. Have you ever actually _sat_ on a jury for a major case, Mr Consonants-and-Some-Numbers? Do you know how disciplined and rigorous you have to be?
A fair trial is down to the indictments brought and whether his lawyers - currently dropping like flies - can raise a quality, fact-based defence. At this rate, he'll be lucky to get _Lionel Hutz_ defending him. ⚖🍊
Just have such a difficult time hearing Trump's childish whining voice.
You interview the guy who was caught intimidating witnesses during the Enron trial and has been accused of unethical behavior over and over again?
Your point?
Weissman wasn't "caught" doing that and he's not been accused of unethical behavior. Where are you getting this?
@@laurie113 He doesn't have one because it isn't true.
He sounds kind of douchie, or he's from Maryland. He's not being honest about the charges. He has a veneer but isn't sincere about how justice SHOULD work.
What part was he dishonest about?
He sounds articulate and knowledgeable. I didn't catch a "douchie" vibe and nothing dishonest about the charges.
@@OsirisIxchel 😆 You're delusional. Actually- gullible is more like it. Nobody in the USA would be brought up on these charges which have run out of their statute of limitations, even if someone might be charged. It's GET TRUMP Stalinist tactics. The douchieness I hear is in the way he talks. The way he pronounces words.
Sure it’s not Tabasco road ? What else could be clouding your judgment?
@@laurie113Ditto.
he's no different than the mob guys he prosecuted he's no good
