And should we care?

Do you care?

Tell you I do care?

Yes.

And what's your view?

I think it has helped.

Has helped it plays into the idea of him versus them for his voters.

And what makes you care about it?

Why don't we should care here?

Because I think it devalues the impeachment.

I mean, that wasn't the purpose, but it was meant to be on if it could be used.

Like this is a political tool.

What does that mean?

Kind of going forward.

Okay, Adam, what's your view on this on here?

Frank?

Anything?

You throw it.

Donald Trump at this point just isn't gonna stick.

Look at this.

What?

He's a mud monster and just throwing it out of him.

Oh, we'll make him stronger.

I got no idea how we should live.

Picture.

What's the number of Republicans in the Senate?

I think it was just a numbers game in the end.

Yeah, I guess.

I guess that's true.

But I don't know, just give me what will.

Pressure will mention going into the reelection.

It's happening, and it's just really bad timing.

to May I know how it got in the first place even.

And do you think it matters?

Does here what we're gonna be negotiating Where the forever Wednesday's 20 to any other action on a trade deal?

Vatican April Barack Obama said it could take up to 10 years to negotiate as a sexual trade deal with the direction that there's research done on our bridge.

Any country entering trade negotiations, the U.

S.

And I was taken five years.

Donald Trump is much more bullish about more reward than that.

It's like one of Harvey is negotiating three and 1/2 implementation.

And so, yeah, I think it does matter.

I think we individual in the White House that we are negotiating with once relieved you properly again of the samba absolutely matter still just come to end into it.

I think it may have improved his reelection shut their chances, and I deeply regret that because we should care about it because this man in the White House is one of the biggest blocks to action on things like climate change.

This man the White House has actually hit with his foreign policy created great instability in places like North Korea in the Middle East.

A za progressive politician, I find his approach to women to Muslims, to Mexicans.

Quite outrageous.

I hope he loses in November.

I think that would be a real step forward for the world.

And for those of us who care about the rights of ordinary people thieves.

Very difficult to tell.

The moment we're still trying to see who the Democratic choice for president is.

I hope they choose someone who can beat Donald Trump because that's in the interest of everyone in the rest of the world.

Rachel.

Well, um, it might have helped him, but it was still the right thing to do.

Um, you know, because he did abuse the power of his office and it was corrupt.

So the Democrats were right to pursue it.

Um, I don't think they could have ignored it, but what we saw just now, that was not a trial with a senate.

A trial with no witnesses, no documentation.

Um, on they had John Bolton, Republican willing to testify, saying, Hey, by the way, I want to testify.

I've got something to say about this, but another way of looking at that is their system.

And then they that they went along with their system, and this is resulting.

Well, they went along with their system, and I think that is, that is, to their shame, the fact that they were prepared toe have a trial that wasn't a trial.

I think everybody can see that Everybody can see what happened there.

And does it matter?

Yes, of course it does nothing for, you know, people who are progressives, leftists or liberals.

There are there aren't that many reasons to be cheerful right now globally on dhe.

So we are all watching the U.

S election, you know, kind of willing the Democrats to just get it together on D win this time.

Men here, the front of the people time.

Yeah, we can say that's the system, but we're also dependent on the integrity of the individuals.

Donald Trump did abuse his office in the way that he was accused off.

Miss Romney recognized that on with some integrity, voted for impeachment on the rest of the Republican, said in effect, Yes, he may be a bully, but he's our Billy.

He's our sides.

He's on our side.

So we're going to support him.

That's what's going on.

Well, in the green dress, Green told.

I'm worried that our prime minister is beginning to resemble them on in the White House in his treatment of minorities, but also press freedom and how we treat agendas the other day and refused to enter into a briefing.

Brian, wait, come on, that I know that's a thing.

A number.

A number of you have told that.

Let's just stick the Donald Trump For a moment, Estella has impeachment, helped or hindered his campaign.

Should we care?

Yeah, I think we should care, because when you normalize politics without rules, it has consequences for making it look more acceptable in other parts of the world.

I mean, I think you're right, sir.

Who would have thought a couple of years ago that Mitt Romney would appear to be a progressive hero?

But he did the right thing.

He said what he thought was right, and he will take the consequences in the run, the company broken movement.

We are in a politics right now.

There are very many tactics of American politics are being imported into British politics in terms of how people campaign in terms of people's arguments about whether experts on expertise matter.

I think we should all be worried because it is driven in America so much by money.

It's not driven by democracy, and actually, we're seeing that in the democratic movement as well.

What I worry about is that once somebody has been able essentially to get away with it once, why not do it again?

And why not, then in this country, start saying, Well, you know what?

Actually, even America people don't accept having a lapresse there and the difficult press scrutiny.

Why not do that here if it's okay to you?

No, no.

Have clarity about what you're doing with the Russian oligarchs in America.

Why not do that in the UK?

It becomes a very slippery slope.

All of this is politicians should always be slightly uncomfortable that were being scrutinized.

That is a good thing.

I don't think that Donald Trump feels that tonight, and that is a bad thing, Theo.

I think I do agree with celebrate the sense of discomfort.

I think that's absolutely the place that all of us need to be on.

The great thing about our system is that you know I can't sit in an ivory tower.

I have to come and answer to colleagues at questions and indeed to make statements on and be held accountable upon that, I think I'm not going to get into the weeds of the American campaign.

I think their system is, shall we say, a rather interesting one in that in a genuine attempt to try and get separation of powers, right.

The executive power of the president does me that he or she is rather remote, I think, from what goes on day today on the Hill.

But what has happened in American politics is that the tradition or working across the aisle, which was a huge part of the United States Senate for most of its history, has gone.

We've heard about Mitt Romney.

He is a really a real throwback to a past that is within living memory of many of us.

When the great men and women, the Senate actually put their hands across the aisle, one worked together for United States of America.

Now that has vanished.

And the lesson I think for us is this, you know, in all the partisan hurly burly that we've had over the last few years.

I think all of us need to look in the mirror.

As politicians here in the UK on Remember that there is so much that United States, we are all trying to get to the same goal.

We might disagree about the means by which we do it, but we are on should be men and women off honor on Yes, trust.

That's been a really difficult thing for a lot of people recently.

On that sense of discomfiting is what I think we need to hold onto as we learned the lessons off some of the extreme politics that we're seeing not just in the USA, but also close to that.

Do you feel that sense of discomfort in doing a deal with Donald Trump?

If you're discovered, think today with the impeachment government showed its independence of mind on issues like the way we are far from assuming the position off, supplicant or look, you have to deal with the president, United States, whoever they happen to be.

The offices, the office.

Now you know I've got my personal views, but as a representative way just comfort about Donald Trump.

Boris Johnson being said.

Hang on.

What?

Look, I think apart from the hair color, I do no see that much commune ality between a classical scholar.

I'm sorry.

Some easy comparisons and made, which actually not born out by the evidence.

What I want to see the United States is the Democratic Party organizing its caucuses efficiently so that we know what the results are gonna be on, that the candidate who they produce will provide ah proper contest rather than something that will be a rollover.

Trump has been, has confounded the rules of politics in a way that perhaps some of us, you know, I'll admit I'm quite a conventional sort of person in the way that I do my politics fine, difficult and challenging.

But, you know, elections are elections.

We have to work with whoever is democratically elected in a white damaging.

Robert.

I mean, what?

Where do you start with the way we're his street Minorities.

We think women, what he's done.

He nearly caused World War Three with Iran.

That's not difficult and challenging.

He abused his Office of state.

Want to be able to pick on a bulletin on again?

This isn't just bad manners.

This is terrible politics again and again.

Our platform course he was distinct from that of the Trump White House and that we do support the nuclear deal and have done our best to try and invoke the dispute resolution mechanism because we believe when we sign treaties, we believe in due process of international law.

So that's United Kingdom actually having a distinct position from that.

You rolled out a red carpet for him to come to this country because we're weak in the world right now.

Rather strong.

Tell him when he's got things wrong and we're all demeaned by as a result.
