6:05 pm
6:06 pm
outello, how we doing there? how are you liking politicon so far? let me tell you something, if you are not already having a good time, this is going to be a lot of an. i have a great honor of moderating this conversation. i'm the founder and president of a nonpartisan group working with the next generation of elected officials to bridge the political divisions in our country, make our democracy stronger. i would like to introduce tonight's panelists. first, political strategist james carville. give him a round of applause. [applause] and the host of "hannity" on fox
6:07 pm
news, sean hannity. [cheers and applause. -- [cheers and applause] >> there you go. >> whatever. >> how you all doing? you having fun? let's hear it -- trump 2020, right? let's keep america great, all right. this is honestly, guys, my favorite part of politicon. we get two opposing viewpoints, you might have some areas of common ground, you never know. let's start with a very unifying topic of impeachment, right? let's start there. way.e frame it this maybe it has not been framed this way exactly so far. i was recently reading george
6:08 pm
washington's farewell address, and he's talking about in these moments of extreme division and partisanship, the country foreignsusceptible to corruption and influence, and the recent ukraine story seems to be the thing that really set start this pelosi to impeachment inquiry. let me start with you, sean. let me get your take on the ukraine story. do you think the president was wrong or right to solicit their help? and your take on their decision to pursue impeachment. mr. hannity: i don't even agree with the premise of your question. i have here the statement -- you spentdo me a favor -- we three years in this country, right, talking about russia, trump, collusion, collusion, collusion. politico, know, january 11, 2017, they wrote an article about how ukraine colluded on behalf of hillary clinton in the 2016 elections.
6:09 pm
the president says can you get to the bottom of this because we cannot have foreign interference in our elections, if it be -- you know, the only russian interference was hillary clinton's bought and paid for dirty dossier full of lies in 2016. [cheers and applause] mr. hannity: i'm actually of two minds. james carville, he is a wonderful human being. i love mary as well. they've got great kids. if the democrats do this, i predict it will be the greatest campaign contribution to donald j. trump's reelection. it is overreach. the president has a sworn constitutional oath to faithfully execute the laws of this land, and ukraine did interfere -- i'm quoting politico, january 11, 2017. you look at the article and how
6:10 pm
they had an impact on that last election. for the president to say after the country supposedly cared about election interference, if you can help us find out if any shenanigans went on, that would be good. it would be constitutional and we have a treaty with ukraine on criminal matters. the president should be thanked or what he was asking to have happen. there was no quid pro quo. run, for three years -- i on "hannity" all the time -- impeachment, impeachment. it started two days after this man was elected. we have had four investigations. fbi investigation, house intel investigation, senate investigation, mueller investigation -- no collusion. that doesn't work. we will just say it about ukraine. can you name one thing that the democrats have done to make this country safer, more secure, more ?rosperous
6:11 pm
all they've done for the last three years is hate on donald trump. i don't think that is a platform to win elections. >> let me go to you, james. you were making the point to me earlier that you were right in the mix of now two impeachments. what do you see as the parallels from the late 1990's and what's one thing we can learn? mr. carville: i think this is a historic thing because i was very vocal and very involved in what impeachment and sean is very vocal and very involved in the other. what's going to happen is they are going to impeach him. that's going to happen. as i recall, going back to when lockhart was here earlier, we actually had a strategy. our strategy was portray the prosecutor as tape receipt -- as
6:12 pm
pompous, partisan, prosecutor, and, of course, he played right into it. i had more fun slapping ken starr around than most anything i've ever done in my life. the second thing we did is we trivialized the charge. i mean, come on, guys. the third thing we did is we kept the base intact. the only thing i've seen them doing is keeping their base intact. well, their base alone is not going to win. lindsey graham, i'm going to quote him. said the president was defiant. he just kept saying he did nothing wrong, did nothing wrong, over and over. he went on to say, i went against the clinton people, and they were good. i told the president, we got to get better.
6:13 pm
being a dog howling at the moon at the mainstream media and the clintons, you control the justice apartment and the state department, if something is wrong, investigate it. you have the entire power of the united states government behind you. if she was doing whatever, investigate. you have fbi, cia, everything in the world. article from january 20 17 -- go do it. law --was breaking the of course, we heard ad nauseam, ad infinitum about the stupid but i'm just saying as someone who has seen this before, let me tell you, trouble is coming. threeill not lose democrats on impeachment vote. if you look at the way these senators are acting -- sean, you
6:14 pm
have a big role to play here. you've got to bring some strategy to this. you cannot put mick mulvaney on tv. god's sake, nobody likes him. that's not good. could you imagine in the middle of all this, david kendall is gallivanting around with two goons? got to get a team in place. see all these pro-trump people here? they want you to fight back. they want you to get organized. they want you to take it to around witholing broad guarantee and all that stuff. these guys are ready to fight. you got to give them some leadership. >> do you agree with that premise? do you think the house will impeach trump? mr. hannity: i think there's a strong likelihood they impeach, the senate will not convict, and donald trump will be reelected. [applause] mr. hannity: i will tell you the other thing -- i actually had to
6:15 pm
write it down. i give credit -- james carville went to war for bill clinton and they were very effective at fighting back, but i will tell you this -- newt gingrich allowed the vote on the house of representatives for a real inquiry. newt gingrich also let the full house vote on the scope and the rules and the procedures. newt gingrich gave both the ranking member and the chair , alsol subpoena power subpoena power as it relates to the minority. we also know that they let the president's council have the right to attend every deposition and every hearing. they are not doing that now. they also gave the president's counsel the right to present evidence. they also gave the president's council the right to object to the admittance of some evidence. they also gave the president's counsel the right to quash -- to cross-examine and also recommend some witnesses.
6:16 pm
if this is their process, that they cannot allow hearings for the american people to see, and they think they are going to impeach him behind closed doors, that sounds to me more like the former soviet union or venezuela or cuba. that is not due process. that makes this whole thing illegitimate, unconstitutional, and the american people, if your democrat or republican, you should agree that every american, including donald j. trump, the president of the united states, has the right to due process, and if they want to do this behind closed doors, the american people will see the fundamental unfairness of this, and they will also put together his track record over the last three years. are we better off than we were four years ago? the answer is overwhelmingly -- overwhelmingly -- yes. [cheers and applause] haveannity: i will add we
6:17 pm
the best employment in this 1969.y since we have for the first time in 75 years -- we are energy independent in the united states of america. low unemployment for african-americans, hispanic americans, asian americans, women in the workplace, youth unemployment. --have a president that made hello, i'm nice to meet you, what's your liberal name? we have a president that delivered the biggest tax cut in history. we have a president that said he's going to find a way to secure the border. he found the money, he's building the wall. we have a president that said he would have us better trade deals. japan, half of china, european allies, mexico, canada. we have a president that said he
6:18 pm
was going to beat back the caliphate in syria, and he decimated them when he removed the insane rules of engagement webarack hussein obama, and beat back the caliphate. isis died in syria as a result of his peace through strength policies. -- jamese thing carville and i are never going .o agree on these issues the divide is real. .t is profound america will have the clearest choice it has ever had. continue to be this great democratic republic based on an economic system of capitalism, risk and reward, or americans are going to choose a level of socialism and a new green deal, which we will talk about and get rid of oil, gas, combustion engines, cows, and
6:19 pm
planes -- only a liberal would want to get rid of cows. really? but here's the thing -- we are going to have the just choice election, and i think a president that has literally fulfilled almost every campaign promise that he has made and gave us all of these records with the economy and eat back the caliphate -- i think that record will carry the day, and i believe he will win more states in 2020 than he did in 2016. [cheers and applause] >> i will let me respond to that. mr. carville: i just cannot talk for that long. the first thing is this is the weakest president we have ever had in american history. no one cares what he says. bin laden is dead and gm is alive. no one cares what he says. iranians don't care. iraqis don't care. turks don't care. the north koreans don't care. the chinese don't care.
6:20 pm
democrats don't care. they are going to impeach him, all right? that is going to happen. you cannot instill any discipline unless you have fear. no one is scared of donald trump except for people that live in hard red states. they cannot get what he for senators -- they could not get 40 for senators to sign something before lindsey graham got them together that mitch mcconnell had to edit down for him. once people don't care what he says, he has got the weakest polling numbers by far of any president in history. -- reeksreaks weakness. you look back, when they came after us, we came back after them. we picked up seats.
6:21 pm
we had an approval rating in the 70's. this guy, there's no fear. nancy pelosi does whatever she wants. he's just getting clobbered by -- i guess i cannot say a girl, by a woman. every day making every democrat so proud, and every day , she just disciplines him like an errant child. that's what i think is happening. they will have hearings, don't worry. there will be plenty of hearings. there will be plenty of witnesses, believe me. of these more whistleblower people coming can imagine.ou they got the book coming out by anonymous. mr. hannity: oh, "anonymous." don't even have the courage to put their name on the book. mr. carville: can i say you are
6:22 pm
all supporting a very weak, compliant man? unless you get a lot better, unless you get some talented people, it's going to happen to you. it's going to happen, i promise you. it will happen. as good as james carville was, and i mean this, what i love about james -- and we have debated a lot over the years -- he is a warrior for his side. he went to war for bill clinton. his team went to war for bill clinton. they had a war room for bill clinton. bill clinton, james, got impeached and the day he got impeached, he had his highest approval rating ever. law clinton lost his license. bill clinton paid paulo jones $850,000. i will say this -- bill clinton -- when hillarycare failed and he said these words -- the era
6:23 pm
of big government is over, the end of welfare as we know it -- the person that james carville went to war for but still got impeached -- he's saying impeachment is so bad -- that guy would not even be accepted in this extreme, radical, new democratic-socialist party. i've never heard of so many candidates for president that think that we are going to wean ourselves off of the lifeblood of our economy -- oil and gas -- in 10 years. if we do that, we will destroy every opportunity in this country. if you come up with alternative energy, i suggest you sell it because you will be a billionaire very quickly. if we get rid of the combustion engine, get rid of airplanes -- that's a brilliant idea -- if we get rid of cows, but we are americangive every free childcare, free health
6:24 pm
care, free government healthy food, free education -- by the way, how did obamacare work out? free retirement. is $94he price tag, man, trillion. all of those promises are unsustainable. they will never be fulfilled. barack obama said, "keep your doctor, keep your plan, and save money. 40% of the country only has one health care option. so many millions of americans lost their doctors and their plan and on average paid 174 percent more in higher premiums. now we are going to have at $36 trillion a year. we only take in $4 trillion a year. maybe socialism is appealing -- everything is free. eventually, you have to pay for it.
6:25 pm
if you think what is happening in new york, new jersey, california -- this mass exodus stashed by the way, they are coming to nashville and the carolinas and they are going to florida and to texas. if you think that exodus is bad, you give a 70% tax rate to individuals, 90% are corporations, you add a wealth tax on top of it, and then a 40% death tax, i'm going to tell you what everybody -- and i never got a job from any poor person, and i started out as a dishwasher when i was 12 years old. i never got a job from a poor person, but those rich people didn't get rich by being stupid. they are not only going to leave california, new york, and new jersey. they are going to leave the united states and take their money with them. nobody will stay here. if you leave california and take about 25to texas, it's hundred dollars. if you take that same u-haul from texas to california, it's
6:26 pm
about $300. why? nobody from texas wants to go to alifornia because they have 13.5 percent state income tax rate. ' support of bill clinton is admirable. bill clinton was far more moderate for the last six years. him and newt gingrich i think did great things for the country together. we balanced the budget and have not done it since. we need to get back to that, but i will tell you, impeachment never hurt the clinton. impeachment helped the clinton and he never had higher ratings. my production is james is probably right. these radical democrats and their secret soviet style impeachment plan -- it will probably go through. what are they afraid of? let the witnesses talk. by the way, the person that's running the hearings -- he is compromised. he is corrupt. he is a liar and a fact witness
6:27 pm
in the case. that would be the cowardly schiff. let the american people see this circus for what it is, and if they see this, they will find it repulsive because the democrats are not looking out for safety. they are not looking out for security. they are not helping create jobs and prosperity in this country, and donald trump has broken more economic records than every other president in the last 100 years combined. that is something to run on. >> do you think impeachment will be the defining issue in 2020? mr. carville: it's going to be huge. it's going to happen, and it's going to be a huge story. there's no other way around it. i wish hillary was president. i would be here defending her. there's nobody left in
6:28 pm
california except san francisco and silicon valley on beverly hills and newport beach. california is out of rich people. they have all moved. that's why housing in san francisco is so cheap -- because no one wants to live there. i mean, the whole thing is so -- it's so, like, ok, fine. shit on thedon't street. i don't know what to say. left, thebout the night before the house will vote on impeachment, they are going people.0,000 maybe you will put 250,000 people in and we will have a great democracy festival. but this thing is coming. i have more witnesses coming. they want people to come forward. there are people like -- john
6:29 pm
bolton is going to come forward. john kelly -- general kelly said today that the syria thing is, like, the dumbest thing he has ever seen in his life. there's no fear. no one is scared of this president. sean starte like propping up the senators and now, a them up -- right senator said mitch mcconnell told him something and mitch mcconnell said i never -- trump said mitch mcconnell told him something and mitch mcconnell said, "i never said that. i've never had -- i never had that conversation with him." there's no fear. there's not a single democratic congressman that has any fear whatsoever of this. they are going to do it and he is too weak to stop it, and he may not stop it in the senate. this train is leaving the
6:30 pm
station and as long as he is isting there -- you sitting there -- you can pass this on to him -- as long as he is sitting there -- >> [indiscernible] mr. carville: it's not going to happen. he has to get some good lawyers. he got to get rid of david kendall and get rid of this clown show you've got. you know media. you can get some people in their that can carry their own weight and make a case, but right now, that i see, ng you've got to toughen up a little bit. sean, who do you hink trump least wants to face in 2020? i look at this field of andidates and i'm like i'll take any one of them. he's right, the country will get up.jazzed if you watch, we've never seen anything like this. night on e other
6:31 pm
"hannity," the dallas rally of the president. there were 30,000 people outside speech the president's inside. now, barack obama got big crowds. obody in my lifetime has had this phenomenon which is donald trump. there is this disconnect with washington establishment, the new york establishment, the l.a. san francisco establishment. and there really is contempt you know, what did peter strzok say, smelly trump wal-mart shoppers. i like to shop at wal-mart and i think people that shop at wal-mart are pretty usually get you the same thing for a lot less money. irredeemable id deplorable, and barack obama angry, bitter e americans that cling to their
6:32 pm
god, their bible, their second like, ent rights, and i'm okay, i believe in god, jesus savior, iour lord and believe all of that. [cheers and applause] what i think , james is missing in his analysis wait those people that online, and i have seen them, i've been there, they will wait, they tailgate for 24 rally.o get into a trump and those people are watching this sneaky behind the scenes every ending three long years impeach, impeach, of ach, and they are sick it. and all of these democrats are doing is one thing. pissing off the one can people, and every of those people -- here's how i analyzed 2020. better off than you were four years ago? yes.ery category,
6:33 pm
also, is donald trump, i love he little -- i love you liberals in the background, hi, is donald trump going to lose people that voted for him in 2016? i don't think so. right? all right. now, the question is, now that best unemployment, the best employment conditions 1969, now, look, barack obama literally gave us 13 americans on food stamps after eight years. he gave us eight million more poverty. in e gave us the lowest labor participation rate since 1970s. gave us the worst recovery in years. donald trump in 2 1/2 years has created seven million new jobs. has d trump in 2 1/2 years gotten seven million americans off of food stamps. more out of
6:34 pm
poverty. [applause] right we're better off than we were four years ago an if i'm right that donald are notpporters in 2016 going anywhere, i've got to wonder, those people that are stamps, out of poverty, and the seven million record low d the unemployment for hispanic americans, asian americans, in can-americans, and women the workplace, does he have a shot? because their lives are better them to vote for him? moody'sr is absolutely, a -- analytics had him at 351 electoral votes. headed.here he's he'll be re-elected, in my opinion. to start. know where obama had 80,000 at his speech in bronco stadium. his clout at his inauguration as big as trump's.
6:35 pm
whatever you want. fantasizing. got 46.1 in trump 2016. 2018.resident got 44.8 in it's not like we've not had an intervening election here. like -- he was the highest turnout since the right popular the biggest vote majority in the history of the congressional elections. please, this is going to happen. be impeached. republican senators that are up for re-election are scared of this vote. talking points. they need talent. they need a strategy. hey need somebody to come together and pull together and fight back because they are coming. people that are coming are from all over the place. have been people that
6:36 pm
within the government. just ou know, this is going to happen. mean, i i believe, i have some insight as to what they are doing and what they are to do, not total, but they better be prepared because there s so much more coming down the pike, and, and my counsel would effective ot to have people. you need good lawyers, good spokespeople and you need a defined strategy. that is, we had ken starr. the problem with the one knows er is no who he is and he's not a face. you can put ken starr's face up lips an youis pushy can see what you're looking at. say, they can, this is a trivializing thing. are way more concerned about what might have happened in the ukraine than anything hat bill clinton did, with monica lewinsky. i'm just telling you, just look
6:37 pm
and see, and, you know, you've than your base here. you're scratching the bottom and we've got a nking, lot of trump people here, i they think strategically are serving your interest very well. >> so we'll have a chance. can i just add one thing to add. listen. james is really good at what he does. he's a formidable strategist and battler and i admire him for it. you've got to remember, donald trump, keep underestimating them. kicked the [ bleep ] out of the bush dynasty and he kicked he [ bleep ] out of hillary clinton, and no one saw that coming, and james is saying, republicans are nervous, house you think the 40 democrats in trump won districts re feeling if nancy pelosi and the corrupt compromised fact
6:38 pm
running n the case soviet union's style impeachment hearings, how do you think those feeling?rats are >> i know. i know. going to vote to impeach him. i know these guys a lot of them are friends of mine. i'm just telling you. sean: james, what crime do you want to impeach him on? >> for leveraging his influence gain rsonal political which mine.is, if you read the federalist papers, or you read the most lse is about do, us thing that you can plus they are -- sean: what's the crime? i didn't hear it. >> what they are going to self dealing is while conducting the business of the united states. say it's not -- he will be impeached. what? for crime?s the >> tell us, tell the crowd.

6:40 pm
-- e screaming at the moon the moon pays as much attention to the dog barking at it as the pay to trump. [wow-wow-wow] want to jump in here. >> i'll tell you what a crime is nd this is where i love democrats. >> quick response and then we'll go to questions. this is what i love about democrats. remember, we had all the i believers, right? kavanaugh, kavanaugh, kavanaugh. now we have credible allegations against the lieutenant governor virginia monwealth of about rape and violent sexual assault. not one i believer. care about russian interference. they didn't give a damn about illary clinton's bought and paid for russian dossier full of lies. [applause] sean: that was used in the 2016 ehex. hey don care that hillary
6:41 pm
clinton, if any of you ever have anything subpoenaed, i'm going give you advice, acid wash your hard drive with bleach pit, hen bust up your devices with hammers and remove the sim cards. good luck to you. is use unless your name clinton you're going to jail. nd then you've got the dirty russian discy air that was never verified, unverifiable, because guy that put it together, interrocker steele, in an tore, said i don't know if it's true. have the outsourcing of our allies to to circumvent american law. here's what i'm going to say to you. i have down here the transcript. phone call with the president of the ukraine. he only corruption i see in ukraine is a former vice
6:42 pm
president, now vice presidential andidate by the name of joe how he used a bill taxpayer dollars and said, getting the money unless you fire this -- why would a vice president want a prosecutor fired? bitch, hours, son of a .hey fired him y. why did he fire him? do you have any experience with ukraine, any experience with no, gas, no, why do you think he gave you millions of dollars? i don't know. it had hink maybe something to do with buying the favor of your father, the vice president, the second most powerful man in the country at the time, in charge of the ukraine? why would china, hunter biden, no experience with china, none, experience in private equity, he flies on air orce 2 with daddy, by the way,
6:43 pm
he's not a kid, he's 49 years ld, 10 days later, he gets a billion dollar deal with the bank of china. i didn't take a penny. pointed out, he has a pretty big equity share, caller estimates, a minimum of $20 million. why would somebody with no in this e, none of you room would ever get paid millions of dollars if your name biden, with no experience. a t, james, that would be crime, because that's called buying influence. let me make one clear point. i see the trump people out there. [applause] >> you control this entire apparatus of the united states government. control the justice department. you control the state department. everything. god's re was a crime, for sake indict somebody. on't talk about it on
6:44 pm
television. if you're down to talking about governor of t irginia -- sean: wait, james, accused of rape and violent sexual assault of a woman. again, where is -- for god's sake that's not the argument. of these nt is all laws are being broken, you're in control. do something about it. you don't go and tell it. again, this isn't a dog barking at the moon. if you're the justice department you have power. you have real power. the epublican controls senate. they can subpoena anybody that they want. and they don't. letting you down? because they just want talking points? on fox? do they really think this is happening, because if it's appening for god's sake do something about it. -- you wouldr like
6:45 pm
not believe and you're letting people sit throughout and not getting the defense worthy of the passion they feel. that's the problem you have. >> i want to know where the whistleblower -- i have a for james, james carville. clinton had her emails subpoenaed and she of them, and then they clean the hard drive with had hing none of us -- i never heard of bleach but did ny of y'all hear of bleach pit -- they clean the hard drive, they bust up the blackberries and eye phones with hammers and remove the sim cards. james, are you going to tell in wonderful audience beautiful nashville, tennessee that hillary clinton did not there?a crime >> again, statute of limitations has not run. get the state department after her, two or three-year nothing tions there is
6:46 pm
to it but for god's sake, do something. sean: lock her up. do something. if there was a criminal out there, do nothing. i wouldn't talk about it. power.ve >> i think that points -- we ave a chance for probably one or two. sorry, only one or two. we have one gentleman here who has been close to the front. to ask ae you a chance question an it needs to be and end in a rt question mark. more time. >> we're not able -- and i'll out it out repeat it. >> [speaker asking a question] >> you promised would you get water-boarding for the troops to never d. are you going get water-boarding for the
6:47 pm
troops and their families and charity?hat money to >> so the question is related to the troops and water-boarding. sean: i love your little talking point. listen, including nashville, i partnered with more music stars, we did more raised millions and millions of dollars for scholarship funds for the proudly donated, i like to keep my donations private. the question is, you can take your keith lbermann talking point and run away. i tell you, i don't believe water-boarding is torture, and one other thing. there were three people that had interrogations. one of them was khalid muhammad. only reason we ever got osama bin laden is because halid muhammad was water boarded and guess what, he gave
6:48 pm
us the name of the courier and to osama r brought us bin laden and we were able to take out the guy responsible for /11 d. i'll continue to raise money in a multitude of ways for the troops. right. we have time for one more. already?me up >> yeah. it's gone fast. mr. question is to hannity. the movie producer michael moore that only a e ago politician could possibly beat president trump. do you think a ticket of uane johnson and tom hanks would do to the democratic party? back to myoing to go four points. off than we were four years ago? overwhelmingly yes. is donald trump losing any of he people that went out and
6:49 pm
voted for him in 2016? any.n't think he's losing third. with his economic employment ecord and beating back the caliphate in syria, isis, i believe there will be many more vote for him ll this time around than last time. this noise that you're hearing and other secret people and anonymous books and whistleblowers and whistleblowers that are hearsay whistleblowers, nonwhistleblowers-whistleblowers , apparently colluded with adam meaningless., it's all that is, is noise. what's going to matter is are we we more secure, did he keep his word? is america better off? one politician in my lifetime that's can't his romises more than donald j. trump. that's why i believe he gets re-elected. >> let me ask one final question. this is the impeachment stuff 2020.
6:50 pm
