a twenty five percent tax on thirty four billion dollars worth of chinese goods in beijing retaliated then as well and the trade dispute doesn't seem to be over the u.s. is threatening a third round of tariffs as soon as next month adrian brown has more from beijing. well as advertised china has retaliated against the united states imposing a twenty five percent tariff on some sixteen billion dollars worth of u.s. goods in the past few months of course china has accused the united states of being responsible for the biggest trade war in history so no sign of this dispute ending anytime soon talks though are continuing in washington between officials from the u.s. treasury department and china's finance ministry the chinese side insists that it was the united states that invited china to take part in these talks but president donald trump has said he doesn't believe these negotiations will achieve very much

of more concern to china right now is the fact that the u.s. trade representative's office is currently hearing arguments for and against allowing the united states to impose additional tariffs on some two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese goods if that were to happen it would hurt not just china but also the u.s. consumer because it would involve products such as bridal grounds parts for bicycles the sort of stuff everyday consumer items here in china no sign of panic so far as we enter the second month of this trade dispute chinese consumers though are starting to spend less there are signs that the consumers are a tightening their belts on the horizon they see an economy in china that is slowing and they also see another red flag debt that debt pile is getting bigger because china's government is doing what it always does a times like this turning on the credit tap to ensure the chinese companies and

businesses are insulated from this continuing trade war earlier this year china head merican why with fifteen percent tariffs now hundreds of thousands of dollars at a livery have been put on hold aren't all that one farmer in california is healing . like a cascade of green and gold and jewels right sauvignon blanc grapes fall into a press at the one exam lee winery in california's napa valley it's one of many steps toward creating premium wines that sell for as much as one hundred dollars a bottle here in the heart of california's wine country growers have to contend with the weather fluctuating markets taste trends and now a trade war oh we feel when you walk through and see all of this. fear here one realtor michael honey is afraid that relationships he spent

a decade cultivating with chinese wine merchants have now been ruined he saw in about twenty five other countries outside of the u.s. and china is certainly one of the top two or three after president donald trump placed tariffs on a range of chinese imports in march beijing retaliated with tariffs on u.s. agricultural products including wine growers protested but to no avail now u.s. wines are priced out of the chinese market compared with the fruits of chilling in french and australian vision your it's the world's getting smaller you see great interest in the chinese culturally they want wine they want the finest things in life they know that not by producing some of the best wines in the world so we have this great opportunity but the government is putting this huge impediment in front of us it's not just growers here in california is wine country who are feeling the pinch all over rural america including many areas that heavily supported trump in

two thousand and sixteen farmers livelihoods are being disrupted by his trade policies trade wars have extremely detrimental effect on on farmers compared to a lot of other industries soybeans is probably the most affected and then commodities like pork and sorghum. politics winery has been in the same family for three generations without expansion into new markets like china he says its future is in doubt for generational business i'm trying to create something for the future of my family the fourth and fifth generation holdings that are going to be running this business so i want to practice today but it will impact us in twenty and thirty years if we don't do something now a rich harvest amid a season of uncertainty rob reynolds al-jazeera napa valley california u.s. president donald trump has responded to speculation about impeachment following the prosecution of two former top aides his former lawyer michael cohen employed hated

how many pleaded guilty to breaking campaign finance laws he says he did so at trump's direction in an interview with fox and friends trump said there would be an economic crash if he were removed from office i don't know how you can impeach somebody who's done a great job. i'll tell you what if i ever got a ph i think the market would crash i think everybody would be very poor. because without this thinking you would see you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe she joins us live from washington d.c. to whom i say speaking she have. with trump i mean that's a very speculative question i mean there is an argument it is often just speaking to him himself in some ways but the bitter end clearly he is right there that i mean there there is no chance of impeachment unless the democrats retake the house in november and what's interesting about that is that they don't want the

democratic leadership doesn't want to talk about impeachment as far as they're concerned that's the sort of topic that might fire up donald trump's a base to come out and vote in november and prevent the democrats from retaking the house in the midterm elections in fact ultra i mean his strategists say he's doing it doing a rather bad job that steve bonum his key strategist in the twenty sixteen presidential election is on record saying the november election should be viewed as a referendum on impeachment should be viewed as an up or down vote he certainly sees a strategic value in talking up the possibility of impeachment in order to get that base out in november to vote for him there are worries in the republican party that they're being rather complacent partly because donald trump suggests he's very complacent that he won't be impeached and in fact that the republicans have nothing to worry and emma because he's doing such a fantastic job now if they do come out and vote then there's absolutely no chance that that the democrats or any impeachment proceedings will begin because the

democrats won't take the house or in fact the irony is the democrats leadership at least is trying not to talk about impeachment for the moment even if he is not impeached can he not still be in some way depending on where the best occasion goes prosecutors in new york there are various investigations that are still ongoing is there not still potential legal jeopardy that could still weaken his presidency even if he is not technically impeached. i will have to wait for whatever robert mueller comes out with in his report if and when that does come out but we do have now michael cohen trumps former fixers testimony when he pled guilty that names trump as an unindicted coconspirator basically in in an attempt to violate campaign finance laws by paying hush money juror in the presidential election to silence two women whom president trump had affairs with now there are legal questions here is

that necessarily breaking the law if donald trump lawyers if this ever came to court can prove that actually they said nothing to do with the election is part of a longstanding pattern of behavior using michael to pay house money to all the women that donald trump has had affairs with in order to protect his reputation and his family then auggie but he could say this is this wasn't a campaign finance finance violation this is business as usual in trump wos that's one issue but secondly in order to have to make that argument he has to be indicted the department of justice has a rule that a sitting president won't be indicted however that doesn't necessarily stop a prosecutor from trying to indict him but then things get interesting because if that if a prosecutor does try to indict him it goes to the supreme court and donald trump's current nominees very likely to be to be made of supreme court justice is on record as saying presidents shouldn't be investigated while they're in office ok tongan live press in washington she had thank you. discrimination abuse and violence racial tensions in south africa have been running high for decades and now with

just one sweet u.s. president donald trump has managed to inflame an already tense situation that is by weighing into the debate over land ownership and a country that has been jordi black most farms are owned by the white minority tribes comments have been slammed by south africa's government as misinformed so listen to what the tweet says that he wrote this on twitter i have asked secretary of state my pump aoe to closely study the south africa land and farm seizures and expropriations and the large scale killing of farmers south african government is now seizing land from white farmers truck hauling and large scale killings does not stack up to the facts according to agra say a group of hundreds of agricultural associations the killing of white farmers has actually had a twenty year low forty seven were killed last year at the peak of the violence in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight one hundred fifty three farmers were killed it is a sensitive topic because seventy percent of land in south africa is in the hands

of those farmers despite white people making just eight percent of the population that's why president cyril ramaphosa announced plans this month to change the constitution to allow the explore appreciation of land without compensation the government says it will now speed up land reform in a way that doesn't divide the nation that made him ill or has more now from ellabella and south africa's pople province. as the south african government tries dealing with this latest tweet from donald trump that is possibly further aggravated the national. exposure creation of compensation mommas across the country getting together to discuss the way forward in a home can. induce to make and just walk to the module or make we don't need a distribution of landlord would benefit them we. and some. we have pharmacies that say they do understand that the land issue has to be dealt with that the majority

of land in south africa and in particular is in the hands of the whites a minority but they say these a better way to do this while the then extrude create the land without compensation they say they've been on these farms for generations and they are a large part of the food production in this country they say that they are models to look at that could incorporate black. partnerships you know for example that they really want to these other begin to governments to pools around the way forward with this african government the african national congress the party in power says that it supports this move to potentially change the constitution that hasn't been done yet but ultimately to speed up land reform in south africa where they say this is necessary to stabilize the country and the economy. all right leah has been monitoring reaction to this online where it was all sparked online by had tweet from donald trump right and it really just keeps snowballing we're seeing more and more about this in the words donald trump and racists are actually two of

the top trends in south africa at the moment and it's all centered around trump's tweet about what he called the large scale killings of white farmers now some are saying this tweet is random it just seems like it's out of the blue but in his tweet if you look here just at the end he quotes tucker carlson journalist with fox news carlson did a segment on south african land reform just hours before trump started tweeting about it here's a clip from part of that newscast racism is what are we say they dislike most donald trump is a racist they say but they paid no attention to this at all in fact very opposed is one of barack obama's favorite leaders in the world in a speech just a few weeks ago obama praised him he praised the racist governor of south africa and were opposed by name for quote inspiring hope throughout the country. so the western media particularly media the united states has resolutely ignored this this didn't just happen today this has been unfolding over

a period of years the trump administration has not weighed in on this what how should the u.s. administration respond to this human rights tragedy that were home watching unfold . well shortly after that the trumpet ministration did respond with that tweet that we showed you earlier that has gone viral interestingly enough though trump deleted the first version of the tweet because he spelled his secretary of state mike pompei its name incorrectly now other governments have been involved in this and march australia's home affairs minister peter dutton he said that australia was considering fast tracking visas for white south african farmers he said in a quote i think these people deserve special attention and we're certainly applying that special attention now he went on to describe them as people who would easily integrate into our society now we've reached out for video comments about the story but because of how sensitive this topic is many preferred to tweet about it instead emily she's an activist and she said as the president tweets literal nazi

propaganda about white farmers in south africa please please please start listening to the anti fascists and leftist journalists who've been tracking this for years you may not like us but we're not wrong now it's also not lost on many on line that the september cover of time magazine came out just hours after trump's tweet that shows him drowning in a storm it follows two covers from february and april now we have a caller on twitter well you can let us know how how you feel about trump street we've had good reactions to this so far one here from benson saying they're heading the zimbabwean way you can get in touch with us of course and weigh in with your own reaction to the hash tag or shall i thank you coming up for those of you watching us on facebook live will show you how one man in gaza is using trash to make a living also ahead on news right australia's prime minister could be pushed out of office and may find out his fate tomorrow.

with doha about forty degrees here on friday maybe making its way to forty three were clouds in the forecast across parts of oman that could be seen and saliva you could be seeing a temperature there of about twenty six degrees then very quickly across parts of south africa well we are watching one from a boundary that has pushed through we are going to sing another system making its way over the next few days towards cape town that's going to bring rain showers not on friday but we do think on saturday in the afternoon with attempt a few about fourteen degrees. this don did not have the ability to take on everybody dead or next world no one is also new to the fight all of them big enough to sponsor and phone them as well in search of the missing pieces of us in every important meetings at all from the moment he said i like doing the right to the good of the pakistani puzzle when you get the news that bin laden was killed were you surprised or was your reaction oh they found him the place we call the new world but we don't want anyone to know

mehdi hasan goes head to head with the former pakistani foreign minister on al-jazeera. and nine hundred seventy eight. disappeared after boarding a plane to libya. for over thirty s. his disappearance remained tragic in mystery. but after colonel gadhafi his downfall in two thousand and eleven new evidence came to light. al-jazeera world investigates the case of the vanished in. and out to syria.

and let's take a look at what is trending the top story has been we have been covering the escalating trade war between the u.s. and china and. obviously retreat from donald trump is he waded into the domestic politics of south africa as it pertains to land grabs and many other stories from his visit our web site al-jazeera dot com. the u.s. has made an urgent plea to latin american countries to train her venezuelan nationals

playing economic hardship at a deepening political price crisis that is it's voiced concern at new passport and boarder entry requirements in ecuador and peru. now every day thousands of them as whalen's are leaving to escape the country's economic turmoil about two point three million have gone in the last four years and that's just those who have legally migrated they have spread across south central and north america and some even playing to the caribbean a large number are going to colombia brazil peru and ecuador and ecuador more than four thousand venezuelans are arriving every day our correspondents are following the crisis from all of the affected countries let's begin with our latin america editor lucy a new man who is in caracas is there any sign that this this migration this exodus is slowing down at all you know

a show as you know the government announced a radical economic changes to the currency new regulations earlier this week on monday there was a devaluation of nearly one hundred percent five zero zero slashed off the currency and i'm at a bus terminal right now and nevertheless we are seeing people trickling in all day long in other places and up to three hundred people putting themselves on a list all of them trying to get tickets to the border with colombia from there they want to go to ecuador from ecuador to peru and to chile and argentina but they're being told here as just about everywhere else that there are no tickets that the services are stopped suspended until further notice and that is because there is complete confusion and paralysis since these new reforms came into place and the bus companies say they will not be sending buses anywhere until they can raise the prices and yet the government says that there are strict new price controls in effect what does that mean that there is little confidence certainly

right now that these new measures are going to make things any better and as we've been hearing all day long people believe that the only way out of this crisis is to get out of the country. this is sandra angeles's last day at her home in her working class caracas neighborhood she sold everything possible and packed the rest she and her sister her two daughters and their four small children prepare to abandon israel. i have to get my daughter out of here before it's too late. for an jellies three year old can't speak since she had a stroke provoked she says by the lack of medicine to treat her repeated convulsions half of them will go to peru the rest to chile to join husbands and sons but sandra is angry. we wanted to remain here and my beloved venezuela the best country in the world until my door destroyed it we're leaving half of our family behind our family smell scattered. indeed oil rich

venezuela is on recognizable disease hunger uncontrollable violence and hyperinflation are driving millions from a country where poverty has reached eighty percent president nicolas maduro blames u.s. financial sanctions but they don't begin to explain a crisis that began long before they were imposed a year ago. what is happening is of such gravity that it looks as though we were going through a terrible war with syria except there is no war and if the expectation that things will get even worse it is nourishing the stampede. not that it's easy to leave a passport is worth its weight in gold to my money that i need to leave but hell is no way to get a passport at least to pay two thousand dollars under the table which i don't have to go that's when the passport office official asked us to move away. those lucky

enough to have a passport come here to catch a bus going to peru via colombia and ecuador like everything else the bus tickets go on day by day so the people who are lining up here are doing so not to get a new ticket but to pay the difference from one they bought a month ago at four hundred and forty now they have to pay eight hundred eighty one they can't get on the bus it's prohibitive so like many others alexander is leaving for peru to try his luck with his pockets empty and. there's no work a consequence my family obama milk and diapers my baby so i have no choice as the departure time nears the waiting room begins to look and feel like a mass funeral parlor. husbands wives children and fiances say goodbye to each other and certain what will become of those who leave or of those who must stay behind a tragedy that's taking place every single day in every corner of the his way.

and let's now go to our teresa who is live for us and you and it's your refugee camp and. so you have been monitoring things on the border with brazil and there had been violence over the last few days how do things stand right now there are where you are teresa. well the situation has seventy come down in the past few days after last weekend a shelter where venezuelans were leaving with attack and fire by local residents i roamed a thousand people were pushed to the venezuelan side of the border so the government was forced to send extra security forces to control the situation many of those who were expelled from the country by the population managed to return and they are living in shelters in camps like this one where the support of the brazilian government and the united nations refugee agency where people are fed and given

a temporary shelter but in spite of the fact that brazil has involved twelve ministries of the armed forces and have the help of the united nations refugee agency there are still hundreds of people that i leaving on the streets in the city of wabi the women and children that have been for weeks have been waiting for help and this is something that has sparked tension with the local population because let's not forget that the. where this fifty's located is one of the poorest in brazil and has a problem of its own like poverty and unemployment and that's why one of the main priorities for the government right now is to start relocating people in other cities around brazil the problem is that right now many of those who are in the shelters do not want to move because they're waiting for the relative who are arrived so there's a lot of complications here right now but what we do know is that the road i'm a has been asking the federal government to allow them to shut down the border

temporarily but the federal government has said that that's impossible that illegal and that the border will remain open so that hundreds of venezuelans are able to make it to brazil ok three civilized for us on the border between ivan israel and brazil thank you and let's go to a different border where people are leaving going to jail or trying to get into peru that's where mary on the sanchez is on that's some maria border crossing so marianna the guy. their improve has announced that people need passports to come into their country the how is that going over with people considering minutes walen many venezuelans don't have passports. well richelle as you see there are if there's a sense of urgency here and you see behind me a group of. about three hundred people here lining up to get their heart of called and the end part of entry this is there's a sense of urgency because it's three days before that that line where the

government has imposed restrictions on showing a passport to be able to come in to cool out that's a dramatic change from what has been going on in crew for the past two years where you four hundred thousand going to have come to the route they have entered illegally and many are working illegally here in aruba now the government authority think it is because they want a better idea of who these people are and why they are coming here but critics are saying that this is a political decision by president i've been beside one who has hardly any political allies and he relies on public opinion and there's been an outcry in britain after there were a cuban aslant involved in armed assault and so the immediately after that the minister of interior imposed this passport restriction of course most heinous well who just want to come here to have a job and have a better life than in their country back in business we're lucky we'll be paying the price however of forty six years have said that that they will.

so strict with the children with the elderly and with pregnant women so what is unclear is what will happen to the people who come here they are young most of them as you can see there young people men. what will happen to them if they don't have passports because it won't have that same restriction and now they are coming in transports by the ecuadorian government are sending that here and of course what will happen is that they will be trying to enter the country illegally after saturday. on them through ecuador border for us thank you and as i said we have this covered from every angle it's go to the eddy now who is in the room a chalk a border crossing between colombia and ecuador and people there i understand are also having to deal with these these passports are strict so how. hard things at the border they are. well

a reseller that these restrictions came as a surprise to many of the hundreds if not palaces of venezuelans that were trying to cross through ecuador first earlier in the month ecuador decided to declare a state of emergency when twenty thousand venezuelans the ride in just four days at its border and then put these restrictions in place which have stranded many call at many many swell and here on the colombian side the now what happened in the last couple of days is that we we've seen a smaller number of minutes when and arriving here from roughly four thousand five hundred per day to less than five hundred the question is what happened to the rest and speaking to local or getting stations and the red cross they said that some might have decided to remain in colombia most of them are crossing illegally through the road they're trying to make it to through before that country puts its

new restrictions in place on saturday and so there is a smaller number of people here but reportedly there are more of an issue of guns that are crossing through ask whether by foot or on the back of trucks illegally and also excellent is not really in forcing at least part of these new restrictions and actually they're trying to help some of the been in the business where i was that don't want to remain in ecuador but want to continue their journey to make it through the border on time before the new restrictions in through the government organized a number of buses to move two hundred fifty migrants to the peruvian border there's also a challenge against the restriction here brought by the man office the public advocate office here in that but there and on friday there could be a decision from a constitutional judge on the constitutionality of this decision ok i'll send her

up the any on the colombia ecuador border thank you alexandra. so is socialism to blame for the crisis venezuela is suffering what are the complex root causes that kicked off this downward spiral that no one seems to be able to stop al jazeera explores the issues that our documentary the battle for the his way lie you can find it on our website by searching than is wailing the united nations is warning of a third wave of the cholera epidemic and yemen outbreak is already the largest on record and the numbers could rise since april of last year more than two thousand people have died and there have been over a million suspected cases humanitarian partners are responding to avoid a large scale resurgence this month or partners of vaccinated more than three hundred eighty five thousand people against cholera in the high risk districts of her data and it for humanitarian colleagues are also disturbed by damage to health

when you. when it's so. long in places. that are. going together these cats always. it takes discipline and camaraderie. this is not the game or is it. what is a healthy balance between work and play when playing is the job at hand and fortune from there to be made. the story of the highs and lows of young idols in the foster

paced world of the pro gamers. state of play a witness documentary on al-jazeera. arrested legibly beaten in custody freed by a military court then rearrested just minutes later ugandan pop star turned politician bobby wine is challenge with treason. and i'm glad this is live from london also coming up in the program south africa accuses donald trump of fueling racial tensions after he tweeted that farmers were

being forced off their land then killed. a trade war between the united states and china steps up to level a new round of tit for tat trade tariffs with sixteen billion dollars come into effect. and some say no deal breaks it will be a disaster of titanic proportions but says the u.k. government it's released guidelines on what to do. so than a ugandan pop star an opposition politician who's been leading anti-government protests has been charged with treason just minutes after he was freed by a military court while the wind was transferred from military detention to civilian custody on thursday and arrested last week spawn violent street protests the government has denied accusations that he has been in custody this footage shows to sing it limping on crutches as he left the court with orders accuse one of

encouraging his supporters to attack the president yoweri museveni his convoy catherine sawyer has more now from come paula. well the wind is now into the mind of the good who plays on this is a town in the north of the eighties about four hours away from kampala he was charged with treason and he's expected to appear again before the high court on the thirtieth of this month alongside a thirty three other people who were also arrested last week. after the motorcade of president was seventy was stoned during a local election campaign so he's expected on the thirtieth to take a peek at the magistrate didn't also say that he's a possible doctors should be allowed unfettered access to him. or dead that he gets medical treatment he has when he appeared in court he seemed very very weak and in a lot of pain he was struggling to get up from his seat so. other charges that had

been filed against him by the military court this is possession of firearms and ammunition those charges were dropped but then he was again. moments later arrested by police that's why he ended up at the chief magistrate courts and there has been a lot of his supporters even people have been singing and chanting people power our power that is a slogan the wine usually uses. well as for you know to christopher. sure the institute of policy at the university of research in governance and conflict in you welcome to the program is the first of all. this. limping out of police custody will do. supporters they will not be precisely that one imagines . no i imagine the same because well it makes him

even more of a year to their supporters he was nicknamed the ghetto president's he comes from the slums around come and the more he seen and suffering the more his status increases similar things that happen to have happened in the past when opposition leaders in uganda are imprisoned for example before two thousand and six elections it really pulls through image so what do you make of the way the president mr vane is governments where they train and of course handling this. well so do one hand this is really nothing new so historically particularly in the last ten fifty s. this is the way dem seventy regime has been handling opposition has been using force if for example there was opposition leader he's our best t.j. he has been accused of being part of a rebel group of having raped etc so he was brought before justice he was

imprisoned as a draw so this has been done before what has not been done before the way in which the wind has been mistreated it's as you said this is been a nightmare to regime but it's clear that something has happened the same happened with another opposition member of parliament who's also in critical critical condition in hospital and so given that and given the the level of momentum that seems to be a gates with the protests how do you think things may just develop from here well key in all of this the demographics of uganda almost eighty percent of the population is younger than thirty and the bastard have been urban prove test there have been in two thousand and eleven for example there were a so-called walk to work protest so the regime they really are afraid sort of a we don't know how to handle this constituency so on one hand they've been using

patronage been on the other hand they've been using force so they're hoping that by really acting harshly against the wind against protests which have been happening all over the country that they will reap suppressed but tensional protests this attack it's great to get a perspective on this appreciate that very much and you. the south african government is accused of inflaming racial tensions after the us president tweeted about alleged land seizures from white farmers in the pose to donald trump says i have asked secretary of state mike pompei to closely study the south africa land and farm sieges and expropriations in the large scale killing of farmers he then refers to a fox news segments which reported the south african government is now seizing land from white farmers but the government has actually not yet seized any major

agricultural land in fact lamb reform in south africa is a racially charged debate but calling it large scale killings doesn't exactly stack up if we take a look at the statistics according to agri a group of hundreds of agriculture associations the killing of white farmers is actually at a twenty year low forty seven what killed last year and the peak of the violence nine hundred ninety eight one hundred fifty three farmers were killed it is a sensitive topic though because seventy two percent of land in south africa is in the hands of those farmers despite what people may help only eight percent of the population and that's why the presidents are around pose a announce plans this month to change the constitution to allow the expropriation of land without compensation for me that miller has more from a farm is somewhat better. as the government tries dealing with the. national. across the

country getting together to discuss. how he can. in this debate and just what. would benefit them. if farmers can say they do want to stand that the land issue has to be dealt with that the majority of land in south africa of bombing land in particular is in the hands of a white a minority but they say there's a better way to deal with this bother than explore creating land without compensation b.c.b. been on these farms for generations and they are a large part of the food production in this country they say that they are models to look at that could incorporate black farmers in terms of partnerships you know for example that they really want to be in the south african government to hear the halls of around the way forward but this other government the african national congress the party in power says that it supports this move to potentially change

the constitution that hasn't been done yet but ultimately to speed up land reform in south africa where they say this is necessary to stabilize the country and the economy. well meanwhile the u.s. president has responded to speculation back home about the possibility of impeachment as to form aides face jail time former lawyer michael cohen implicated trump in a federal crime which he pleaded guilty when he pleaded guilty to breaking campaign finance laws saying he did it to donald trump's direction and in an interview with the fox news channel trump said there would be an economic crash if he was no longer president i don't know how you can impeach somebody who's done a great job. i'll tell you what if i ever got a ph i think the market would crash i think everybody would be very poor. because without this thinking you would see you would see numbers that you wouldn't believe well let's get more from share returns it is live in washington d.c.

for a market crash or not you have what charts of impeachment do you think. right now unless the democrats take the house of representatives in the november congressional elections there's no chance of impeachment proceedings beginning in the house and that's when things get rather interesting i'm sure told from selection strategists would rather he was talking up the possibility of impeachment in fact actually steve allen donald trump's key election strategist in the twenty sixteen presidential election is talking up the possibility of election he says november should be seen as an up and down vote on impeachment and that the thinking there is this will rally his base to go to the polls there's plenty of evidence that poly because at all times our own tweet saying he expects there to be a republican sweep of the november congressional elections there's a bit of complacency amongst his base they're not likely to go out to the polls and so the democrats are a bit worried that this kind of talk will get them to the polls and then the

democrats won't have the blue wave that they're hoping for blue being the color that represents the democrats and then they'll be no chance of starting impeachment proceedings are i say so that's impeachment what about the chance of being indicted or trying to be indicted off the kid said that it was the president that directed him to violate campaign finance laws. right so the current says that he paid hush money to two women to silence them during the election campaign about adulterous affairs donald trump had with them directly because donald trump told him to and it was directly related to the election so that would be a violation of campaign finance because you're only supposed to give a limited amount of money to a campaign and these sort of numbers about talking about a way beyond that if donald trump were to be indicted he there is some legal debate as to whether this would constitute a crime if he's able to say this is all just part of a pattern of behavior that you know michael kirk is my fixer he's always been paying off women to silence them about my adultery but my personal benefit to

prevent my marriage from breaking up with my personal reputation for being impugn that can be d. link from the campaign and theoretically then donald trump has not broken any laws and the way the idea that if you make even defending or making that legal argument depends on him being indicted the department of justice guidelines of a sitting president should not be indicted that doesn't necessarily mean that every prosecutor has to follow it a prosecutor conceivably could try and indict donald trump that would immediately be appealed that would then go to the supreme court and that's where things also get interesting because donald trump noma need to fill the vacant position on the supreme court brett kavanaugh is own record as saying that sitting presidents shouldn't be indicted or questioned while they're in office so there are all these sorts of things whirling around but for the moment he seems pretty safe. all right she had thanks very much indeed she returns the reporting there from washington well you know.
