tv   Hannity  FOX News  February 6, 2020 6:00pm-7:00pm PST

6:00 pm
way up on foxnews.com and on our facebook page. before we go, a quick word about our friend glen greenawalt facing charges in brazil fighting. never cares who gets upset. happy to report he is not going to be charged. good news. sean hannity. >> sean: you know, the deep state story is even getting bigger. there is a whole new one developing. i will tell you about it privately. tucker, thank you. good show. >> tucker: thanks. >> sean: welcome to hannity tonight. it is clear you, the american people elected a winner. three years the russian collusion hoax. illegal fishing expedition and two years of mueller's hyper partisan witch-hunt. months of the schumer schiff sham show and now actual real acquittal exoneration, vindication, the president remains totally unfazed. in fact, is he winning like never before. his agenda is a massive success like we saw on tuesday night. look at this, a brand new gallup poll finding 90% of americans are satisfied with
6:01 pm
their personal life. i hope to one day make it 100. economic confidence is at the highest point since the year 2,000. president trump racking up accomplishments at a record-setting pace. his approval numbers, by the way, look at this, better than ever before. this despite the fact watch the success. the exact on sift the biden obama years, facing more undue rage and resistance, frankly, than any president in history. watch this. >> we have been going through this now for over three years it was evil. it was corrupt. it was dirty cops. it was leakers and liars. and this should never ever happen to another president, ever. we went through hell, unfairly. did nothing wrong. did nothing wrong. i have done things wrong in my life. i will admit. [laughter] >> not purposefully but i have done things wrong. but this is what the end
6:02 pm
result is. [cheers and applause] >> every time i would say this is unfair, let's go to court. they would say sir, you can't go to court. this is politics. and we were treated unbelievably unfairly you have to understand we first went through russia, russia, russia. it was all [bleep] >> sean: as you can see one of the president's greatest strengths his ability to be serious and, yet, in spite of all of, this actually extremely funny, given the nonstop hysteria of the left that you need to have a sense of humor to stay sane these days. today we saw a perfect example of this. during his remarks about minority whip steve scalise, remember he was fatally -- he was not fatally he was shot nearly fatally by that far left maniac in 2017. watch this. a man who is braver than me.
6:03 pm
braver than all of us in this room he got whacked, steve, right. i went to the hospital with our great first lady that night, right, honey? we saw a man that was not going to make it. he was not going to make it. he was -- the doctor. i told him his wife. i said she loves you. why do you say that? because she was devastated? a lot of wives wouldn't give a damn. look like he had a 20, 25% chance. i think you set a record for blood loss. and steve scalise, i actually, honestly i think you are better looking now. you are more handsome now. you weren't that good-looking. you look good now. you are a warrior. steve, is he fantastic. >> sean: the president thanked so many other people who went to war for him throughout all of these witch hunts and lies and conspiracy theories. through every hoax. through every slander, smear, besmirchment. scalise will join us in just a moment. without a doubt, he has been a key figure in the fight against pelosi's radical revengeful agenda in the
6:04 pm
house tonight that agenda, again, utterly failing. what have they done for we, the american people? look at this. the editorial board, the "wall street journal" calling pelosi's impeachment sham a, quote sorry, in congressional history. constitutional scholar jonathan turley, he didn't vote for donald trump. calling on her to resign. he's right. on tuesday, a very angry nancy pelosi staging this nationally televised nonstop temper tantrum in what is a petty, small petulant display of this rage, this psychosis, emotion. remember when nancy pelosi ripping up the president's speech, calling it all a pack of lies? reality, by the way, pelosi apparently was planning this stunt all along. in fact, look at your screen. pelosi actually was like pre-ripping each of the pages that she actually took the time to prep the rip. and she planned the whole thing, obviously. and as you can see here, she even tested the rippability
6:05 pm
of the document during the speech. look at this, right there. oh, i guess we know why petty pelosi was so distracted and it was weird, and distracting and mumbling and i'm like, okay. i got to not focus on that part of the show because i wanted to hear the address. she was doing it the whole address. appears for the big show she was planning after the president's address. now, remember, this is the very same pelosi claiming that she doesn't hate the president, no. she is so prayerful about it all and so somber. this morning the president, he had this to say about pelosi's prayers and he is dead-on accurate. listen. >> courageous republican politicians and leaders had the wisdom, fortitude and strength to do what everyone knows was right. i don't like people who use their faith as justification
6:06 pm
for doing what they know is wrong. nor i do like people who say i pray for you, when they know that that's not so. >> sean: petty pelosi prepped the rip. targeting pelosi. also senator romney. this week romney saying his deep faith led him to vote to remove the president. quid, pro and hunter at the same time. liberal morning joe praising romney's higher calling. fake news jim across tax that's right, calling it a profile in courage. far left hack jennifer rubin writing romney is a man of uncommon decency and honor. the media mob fawning over romney all day. i recall it really wasn't that long ago that that same media mob was falsely
6:07 pm
accusing romney let's see of being a racist, a sexist, misogynist and tax cheat and a felon. well, pierre defect it's o your new friends, just a reminder. >> once again mitt stepped in it calling russia our number one geopolitical enemy. what's this the evil empire again? >> he also had [inaudible] every morning. >> it's going to be the joke that keeps on giving. >> can he relate to working women? you know, made it sound almost like working women are some mail order product. >> one huge explosive word out there just incendiary, victims. >> it was a condescending, unbelievably insensitive way of insulting people by calling them all victims. >> tucker: these are the people romney now trusts his new friends and not the people who steadfastly defended him from these false attacks for so many years. romney, of all people, well, have you diminished yourself, mitt, it's sad. it's tragic.
6:08 pm
and you should have known that the truth means nothing to the media mob and their partners and the democratic party that now love you. their smears, their lies, their conspiracy theories they are never-ending. by the way, now you are part of it. really? you don't think quid and pro and quo joe, you are not getting the billion until you fire the prosecutor, investigating my zero-experienced son being paid millions? you just exonerated them. wow, good for you, mitt, you are really consistent. do you think this charade is over now that the president has been acquitted? i hate to tell you, think again. watch this. >> the president has been acquitted by the united states senate. double jeopardy does not apply in politics. nancy pelosi and in her house jerry nadler saying the chairman of the judiciary committee they are going to subpoena john bolton it. is risky for the democrats. it's t-ball for trump to say this is grew gra do you tuesday and political. it's also risky for all these senators who just voted on the president's side as this new information comes out. we should pause and reflect
6:09 pm
on the history of today in the context of impeachment this is over but it's not over. >> sean: no double jeopardy. do it again. just keep doing it. it never ends. witch-hunt will continue. the house will probably try to impeach the president over and over and over again. as we speak, they are actually let's bring in john bolton. hang on a second. let's say the president said to john bolton, you know what? i am not giving them the money unless they do this, this, and. this the four facts never change do they ambassador? they never did anything, they never felt pressured to do anything. and even more importantly, when you look at the tape of joe biden and the interview of hunter biden, with no experience and the amount of money, that's a prima facie case of corruption. the president also has a sworn duty, as we have said from the beginning, to faithfully execute the laws and that ukrainian election interference stuff, separate and apart from the russia interference, yeah, that would be, if you will recall, not -- january 11th,
6:10 pm
2017 the politico. ukrainian court said ukraine interfered in the 2016 election to help hillary and they were successful politico told us. wow that would be faithfully executing the laws. corrupt compromised liar by the name of adam schiff already plotting his next top secret style hearings. now, for you we the american people. 271 days you are the ultimate jury. you have an opportunity to shock the world again. and by the way reelect this president who has accomplished all the things we put on the screen. now, if you want all of this to end, i have an answer, when you vote for donald trump, you have all the power, i only have one little vote in new york. you can also give the house back to the republican party. a republican majority for the president. and you can vote for republican senators in your state while you are voting for president trump the
6:11 pm
witch-hunt will then stop and then the country will move forward. imagine this president actually being able to work without never ending witch-hunts, lies, conspiracy, hoaxes, miss information, disinformation, every day. wow, amazing what we can accomplish without that hovering over his head every second of every minute of every hour of every day as the president said during his state of the union address the best is yet to come. lowest labor participation rate in the '70s. 8 fewer million americans on food stamps. 8 million new jobs. millions out of poverty. the best employment situation for every demographic in the country in 50 years wow. we could do more. good news for the president's re-election bid that is the democratic party is a train wreck in every aspect. the same people who want to take over your healthcare and give now choice in healthcare and control every
6:12 pm
major industry in the u.s., it couldn't even count a few thousand votes in the state of iowa. now, the official tally delayed for several days, finally they got to 100 percent. they just did moments ago so riddled with errors and inaccuracies the dnc chair is calling for immediate recanvas. okay. let's continue that iowa caucus schiff show if you will. don't worry, democrats know who to blame for the dumpster fire in iowa. without any evidence, yeah, they are blaming, including congresswoman sheila jackson lee, russia. and trump others are blaming president trump. dog bites, beestings, feeling sad it's god to be donald trump's fault, right? by the way drink too much jack daniels of beer, don't feel good the next morning, it's not your fault it's trump's fault. report claiming that some supporters might have actually called into an iowa democratic hotline and clogged up the calls. this is a conspiracy. the russians told trump to
6:13 pm
do it. by the way, trump might actually give alaska to russia so that russia helps him in the 2020 election. schiff said that. and, of course, democrats, this debacle will pale in comparison to the interlooming civil war. they're looking to rob bernie again. the democratic establishment once again trying to rig the primary against him. we need donna brazile to come bang and tell that story that phone call she had to make yeah it all happened, bernie. ultimately, none of it will happen. ultimately, you are the ultimate jury. i know we are smelly walmart shoppers, guilty. yep, i cling to god. i believe in god a creator. i really do. constitution, second amendment rights. i believe in the bible. i believe in religion. i'm irredeemable deplorable and walmart, i save money at. i like walmart. joining us now author of radical resistance, revenge the host of the number one show in her slot. she owns it. judge jeanine pirro. author of "guilt by
6:14 pm
accusation." harvard law professor alan dershowitz is with us. good to see you, judge. they are not going to stop. >> no. they are not going it stop. the only way it's going to stop is what you referenced in the open or monologue as you call it. >> sean: your monologues scare me. [laughter] >> that is making sure that the house of representatives has a republican majority so that the american people can finally have people to work for them actually doing things for them. the more democrats there are in the house, the more they are going to do. this nancy pelosi has lost her mind and her marbles and i was distracted last night when she was reading along and then today she comes out and says you know i'm a speed reader. you are a speed reader. you know, what was she doing? with the shifty eyes and the mouth and the teeth. she needs poligrip? i don't know what was going on last night. but, at the end what we have got to do. >> sean: you are going to get me in trouble now we are always in trouble together. >> go ahead. professor dershowitz.
6:15 pm
>> sean: you take over the show. professor, they are talking about doing it again, professor. they want to go back to bolton. is there not on the surface you can't get the billion, not getting the billion unless you fire this guy take an official act so my son can make billions of dollars. you get nervous when i go down this road. >> no. it's okay. i used that as an example when i spoke in front of the senate. i said what, if in fact, joe biden had in the back of his mind not only the public interest but also helping his son? that would not be an impeachable offense any more than what the president was accused of doing would be an impeachable offense. but i want to mention one other thing. we are talking about nancy pelosi. do you know that nancy pelosi has suggested that the winning lawyers in this case president trump's lawyers, including me should be disbarred. suggested that we should be disbarred? can you imagine that kind of
6:16 pm
mccarthyism? the last time i ever heard a political figure call for the disbarment of a lawyer based on the arguments they made in front of the united states senate or any court was during the period of mccarthyism. it's such a scandal that she would call for the disbarment of decent and honest lawyers who just try defend the united states constitution. >> but, professor, what's even worse, is the fact that the lawyers who were the house managers made up evidence. they talked about the transcripts and they changed the wor wording of the transcript. they wouldn't allow any kind of due process in the subbasement of the star chamber. i mean, talk about -- absurd. >> you don't have to count on me for that the "new york times" and the "wall street journal" both essentially said that senator schumer had lied in describing what he called the dershowitz doctrine. he said i claimed the president could do anything if he was running for
6:17 pm
re-election. i said if he does something legal and lawful within his authority, the fact that in the back of his mind he may have a mixed-motive and one of his motives may be to help his electoral future and i cited abraham lincoln for that, that that would not turn an innocent act into an impeachable offense. and the "new york times" and the "wall street journal" both corrected schumer and basically said that he had lied about what i had said. you know, who is calling who what? this has been really a disaster for democracy and for the constitution and for civility. >> you know what? this is all about the fact that we got a president who is delivering for us every day, in spite of the fact that he is being attacked, his family is being attacked. everyone around him is being attacked. people are going bankrupt. their lives are miserable now. and we have got to make sure it never happens again. and let them try it. let them do it again. let them sit on their hands when the president talks about opportunity zones and the tuskegee airmen. let the american people see
6:18 pm
what they are really about and they won't come back. >> sean: thank you both. judge jeanine thank you. alan dershowitz thank you. let's turn to massive breaking news that could have ramifications. according to reports tonight the u.s. department has zero balanced hunter biden banking records to the united states senate pursuant to ongoing investigation. here with the very latest louisiana senator john kennedy. senator, i'm going to read something to you, if you don't mind. it's the foreign corruption practices act. it's 15 usc 78. it is illegal for a u.s. person to coerce or influence through bribery or extortion a foreign nation into taking an action that might financially benefit that person or his family or business what more bribery 18 usc 101 c. whoever corruptsly gives, offers or promises anything of value to a public official, a billion dollars
6:19 pm
to influence an official act, fire the prosecutor, is guilty of bribery. does that sound like joe and hunter to you? because it does to me. >> well, i think the united states senate has a legal and a moral obligation to get to the bottom of this. we -- by we, i mean the finance committee and the committee on homeland security have asked for the suspicious activity reports from the department of treasury for hunter biden and all of his business associates when a bank sees something that looks peculiar, that looks like it might be money laundering or fraud, it has to file a report with the federal government those are the reports we are asking for. we are also asking for the travel records from secret service for mr. hunter biden. it's not personal. it's about holding people
6:20 pm
accountable. part of the problem in washington as you know, sean, is that we spend all this taxpayer money and nobody is ever held accountable. it's easier to divorce your spouse than to fire somebody in washington. and we're going to hold hearings. this is what we do know when we learned it as a result of the impeachment proceeding. >> sean: senator, you are a lawyer as well as great senator from the great state of louisiana i read you very specific statutes. one bribery statute, corrupt foreign practices act. i can go to the gratuities act or the hobbs act. now, i read those statutes. i'm not a lawyer. >> but i read it fits perfectly into the case. now, does the president have an oath to faithfully execute the laws of this country and be it the politico or the ukrainian court talking about
6:21 pm
ukrainian election interference or possible violations of these acts that sound like they fit perfectly wouldn't it be the president's sworn duty to get to the bottom of that? >> yes. and it's congress' sworn duty, too. i mean, just on the basis of the facts that we know as i said the other night on your show president obama put vice president biden in charge of the foreign affairs of two countries, ukraine and china. and in both cases his son, hunter biden, walked away with millions of dollars of contracts from politically connected businesses there. now, what message does that send to the world? america's foreign policy can be bought. as i said the other night like a sack of potatoes. >> sean: like a sack of potatoes. >> and i'm not saying anybody broke the law. we don't know yet. but we have a moral and
6:22 pm
legal obligation to find out and we will. >> sean: likwill. >> sean: well said, senator. tennessee senator marsha blackburn is with us. i look at the ukrainian election issue separate and apart from russia and politico and political court and i look at joe and hunter, joe's own words, you are not getting the billion, fire the prosecutor investigating my son who has zero experience. that would fit the statutes i mentioned. that would mean the senator has an obligation to investigate that. >> the president always has an obligation to investigate corruption we know this is what donald trump was focused on. we have been through this impeachment hearing. he has come out of this just fine. we know that the senate is going to take up this issue. chairman grassley and chairman johnson are on top
6:23 pm
of this. the investigation is going to proceed. and we will get to the bottom of it sean, i'm going to tell you something else. we need to continue to figure out what happened with the fbi and the dossier and people need to remember we have the durham report yet to go. and we will receive that at some point this spring and those of us at judiciary committee, senate judiciary committee will continue to work through that and to hold the appropriate hearings there donald trump is going to get reelected. i think you are going to see nancy pelosi and the democrats, i think their heads are going to explode. we are going to continue to root out this corruption and we are going to continue to work with the president trump to grow the economy get this nation and put it on a good footing. >> sean: amazing the dirty dossier was paid for by
6:24 pm
hillary. the obstruction. deleting emails and destroying cell phones with hammers. according to politico and oh, the real quid pro quo with joe and hunter. wow, what a boomerang. senator, you have been a powerful voice on this. thank you for being with us. when we come back, the deep state day of reckoning on the horizon. we have new information tonight the fbi director ray said every fbi official named in the fisa report will be reviewed for possible disciplinary action. director wray with all due respect, that's not enough. and i will tell you why next. ♪ i had a heart problem. i was told to begin my aspirin regimen, and i just didn't listen. until i almost lost my life. my doctors again ordered me to take aspirin, and i do. be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen. listen to the doctor. take it seriously.

6:28 pm
>> sean: breaking news tonight surrounding the deep state. chris wray has revealed
6:29 pm
every fbi official in the fisa report is being reviewed for possible discipline. fox news investigative reporter sara carter joins us live with the latest. the problem with this sarah, there was no verification of the dossier. >> correct. >> sean: there were multiple warnings we know of we know from the state department kathleen and bruce ohr in august before the filing of that first dossier before the election. yet, they never verified it. we now know not only unverifiable but debunk. that's premeditated fraud on the fisa court and it was the bulk of confirmation and congenital liar schiff lied to the country and devin nunes told the country the truth. >> within the inspector general's investigation in ig report. so christopher wray had to come out strong. the fbi director basically was pressed by lawmakers through his testimony what is being done? are you disciplining the people that were involved in
6:30 pm
the carter page fisa warrant? he finally said this is unacceptable. we are looking at everyone that was involved. but i can tell you this. i spoke with sources tonight and all this week regarding the ig report and regarding the upcoming testimony which is what christopher wray did. and they say they hope that the younger and the more -- what they call the lesser fbi agents who were working on the case aren't going to take the brunt of this. and the senior level officials at the fbi like james comey andrew mccabe and others will also be paying a price for this. they hope it just doesn't get swept under the rug, sean. >> sean: i have a message for director wray. this is the premier law enforcement agency in the world. you show no urgency here. premeditated fraud on a court. taking away the civil liberties, constitutional rights of carter page spying on the opposition party candidate with a lie a pack of them and his transition team and deep into the
6:31 pm
presidency that would be a violation of law. director wray do your job. if you don't want to do your job step aside and let somebody else do it. >> absolutely. >> sean: 9% of these guys protect everybody. they deserve better. president had this to say about super patriot james comey. >> we have been going through this now for over three years. it was evil. it was corrupt. it was dirty cops. it was leakers and liars and this should never ever happen to another president ever. it was a disgrace. i had not fired james comey who was a disaster by the way, it's possible i wouldn't even be standing here right now. we caught them in the act dirty cops, bad people. >> sean: here with reaction, he is the head of the freedom caucus. congressman steve scalise,
6:32 pm
congressman matt gaetz is with us. i have got to say. the president thanked all of you and many of you, jim jordan, scalise, he loves matt gaetz, we already know all of that but i thought the way the president he joked with you steve scalise but he was thanking you and thanking everybody else because you guys fought for the truth and you told the american people the truth. >> yeah, sean, you know, the president was very candid today. clearly he has been focused on doing his job. but i think it was important today that he pointed out that there is some very crooked people, including some dirty cops who were still out there. i agree with you on wray. but the one i'm most interested in is the durham report. sean, people need to be held accountable. they abuse their power to literally try to take down a candidate for president of the united states. people ought to go to jail. i have seen some classified information i can't go into but i can say this. hopefully durham names names. i think the attorney general is waiting to see what comes
6:33 pm
out of that. and then hopefully they go after those people and put them in jail. number one, to vindicate everybody else, the 99% of good people at fbi which is such an important agency to our national security. >> sean: well said. >> compromised by bad amples, they need to be held accountable. >> sean: a lot of freedom caucus members andy biggs without which we wouldn't have got then information. there is no ambiguity anymore. the inspector general laid it all out. everybody was warned. we knew it. dirty dossier. unverifiable and now debunk. the bulk of information. it says at the top as john ratcliffe has told us, verified. nothing was verified. and they used it and they were warned not to use it. why isn't that arrest somebody and put them in jail at some point? >> that's exactly right. the freedom caucus has been working on this since the beginning. i will tell you something, sean, when christopher wray sat there and repeatedly told us that he thought the actions of his top level people were unacceptable,
6:34 pm
now, this is before he got there, i give him that. but it is more than unacceptable. it was criminal. it was an attempt to take down the president. for me to hear it's unacceptable. that was unacceptable. we need him to actually refer people to the doj for actual prosecution. >> sean: they were referred. comey was referred. mccabe was referred. >> they have to prosecute, yeah. >> sean: matt gaetz, i know i give you hard time it's only because we are friends. i love what you have to say about what needs to happen to nancy pelosi. tell us about it. >> >> i'm sick and tired that nancy pelosi thinking because she is speakers she can be above house rules. you cannot bring discredit on the house by your actions. nancy pelosi embarrassed the house. she elm bare raced our country when she ripped up the president's speech. she may have committed a crime i think the ethics committee ought to investigate her. christopher wray's main
6:35 pm
problem is he is treating the fbi issues as if it is some human resources matter when it was an attempt at a criminal coup against the president. and it's not enough just to say that you are going to look into the existing employees. a lot of those people committed their crimes and then left. so that's why steve scalise is so right that the durham report is going continue to form on the criminal conduct and we have to put these people in jail who committed crimes. because, if we don't, sean, this will happen again to another president and that will bring discredit on all of us who had the chance to stand up now and fight. >> sean: director wray, i will say it again. please do the job for the 99 percent of the world's premier law enforcement agency. they deserve it. that's the way you clean the swamp. if you don't want to do the job, let somebody else do it. thank you all. absolute chaos democrats in iowa. ellison barber has the latest. we finally have 100 percent of the vote in. yes karl rove's white board is back. our latest edition as we

>> a fox news alert. finally iowa democrats say they have now fully counted the vote all 100 percent in. wow. as of this hour winner not declared due to all the irregularities. correspondent ellison barber joins us in new hampshire tonight with the very latest and i don't think we are ever getting the real number but what do i know? >> hey, sean, yes. in iowa right now buttigieg and bernie sanders are essentially tied. as you said the iowa democratic party says they have now counted everything. but with only or with 97% of precincts reporting just about an hour ago, the associated press said that they were unable to declare a winner because of the tight margin between buttigieg and sanders.
6:41 pm
and the irregularities in this year's caucus process. the fox news decision desk has not declared a winner either. it's possible we could have a winner in the new hampshire primaries before iowa gets formally settled, dnc chair tom perez asking to review all of the worksheets from each precincts. enough is enough in light of the problems emerged in implementation of the delegate plan and in order to assure public confidence in the results, i'm calling on the iowa democratic party to immediately begin a recanvas. it's not clear with the iowa democratic party will do that. in a statement the party's chair said they could conduct a recanvas if it is requested by one of the presidential campaigns. both buttigieg and sanders have declared victory. they and everyone else seem to be moving on and hyper focused on new hampshire. the primaries here are just five days away according to a brand new monmouth poll. sanders is leading in the granite state with 24% of
6:42 pm
likely democratic voters saying they would support sanders if the primary happened today. 20% saying they would go for buttigieg. only 49% of new jersey primary voters who answered that survey said they are firmly decided on their candidate. sean? >> sean: ellison, thank you. all right. it's time for karl rove's incredible white board. ♪ ♪ >> sean: fox news contributor karl rove, what do you do with iowa now? >> well, as i said in my "wall street journal" column today i think this is the last iowa caucus we see i understand why chairman perez came out and said he wanted to recanvas because there are roughly 1700 precincts. the "new york times" found 100 of the precincts earlier this afternoon had apparent mistakes in them. and nbc news found 77 precincts in which there were more votes cast in the final alignment than there

were in the initial alignment which under the rules in the state of iowa is impossible. you cannot -- you have to be in the room at 7:00. if your candidate doesn't meet the viability threshold, can you either go home or go vote for somebody else who is already in there. but that means there should be no precinct in the state in which there are more votes cast in the final alignment than were cast in the first one. >> sean: let's get to the white board. what do you have tonight? >> i want us to put this in perspective. we have all of this stuff going on right now. a lot of people are saying so and so is going to wins a a result of this. and so and so is out. and so and so is, you know, here or there. i want under the circumstances to thin -- i want0 delegates to the democratic convention. if you take the final numbers, the state delegate give lengths and you sort of forecast what that would be based on their rules, now, this would -- this is how it roughly would look.

buttigieg would have 12 delegates, sanders would have 12 delegates. warren would have 9 and biden would have 8. 41 delegates get split up roughly this way. now, some changes, you know, buttigieg might end up with 11 because he has his vote concentrated in the third congressional district. you know, there might be one or two. this might be up one or down two. this is what we are looking at. really? are we going to say that this contest is over because, you know, he got 12 and she got 9 and he got 12 and he got 8? it's pretty amazing to me how rapidly people are coming to a conclusion about where this contest is going to go. >> sean: you really believe -- i think you are the first i saw that said it this could be brokered convention time. >> it could. i don't want to say that it will be. but it's going to be, you know, if this keeps up, that is to say if we are going to keep carving up the delegates between now and march 3rd like this among four or with bloomberg on march 3rd, five candidates, this gets hard to cobble
