that's why david brooks wrote an eloquent column last week saying while there was certainly reason to move forward, it didn't make it politically prudent, because ultimately an impeachment query is not a legal query. it's not in the judiciary. it's a political move. and so the question in this political season is do we tant to completely wipe out the democratic debate that's taking place among the democrats and some degree of a republican debate we're trying to have as to what we believe as a country, with we want to go, what's important to us? because the giant sucking sound will be this impeachment query sucking every other piece of debate both in washington and outside washington at the door. and the question is from an elitist standpoint, should 100 senators make the call on whether or not this president stays in office? or should we, in fact, have that query come next november? i think that's legitimate. i think there's precedent here. andrew jackson in 1834 was censured. it said we're not going to say nothing, but we don't know that we can actually pull off a change, therefore,

david brooks is away. hello to botay. you. so the news just keeps coming.s been a week of cascading information about what the president said in a phone call, and then the president himself, mark, reinforces this with announcing to the world that he's urging china too lok into joe biden and his son hunter. my bottom line question for both of you is is there fire here? is the evidence, in your mind, of either a law that's bn broken or a violation of the president's oath? or is this just smo? >> i think there's more than smok judy. i'm not a lawyer and i don't play one on tv, b there's certainly a strong case to be made that the president opey solicited and sought the intervention and involvement of the foreign government on behalf of his ownan cdidacy and american presidentl campaign, and i think -- usually, it's the w that's in dispute in these rgument abouta facts.no there'eal argument about facts here. it pretty much will be open and the president really opened it up on the driveway on thursday when he bid china to come inna d come up with information unf

finally, before we go, we have to ask if tipping is immoral because that's the question david brooks new york times" today. the opinion column this is the tipping system is not a maritocracy. it widens class divisions and he acknowledges that tipping's the world we should live in says you should still tip 20 to 30% the other reason this was interesting today is because it comes on a new report on uber that says going over 40 million rides, customers tip just 16% of the time for about $3. i rarely tip. >> that was surprising to me. >> rarely tip on uber. >> it didn't start that way. >> because then there's the tie to like your rating and how you rank. >> yeah. >> but i think it's interesting that in restaurants, though, i've increasingly seen restaurants say -- either they say recommended tip 20% and here's how much that is. they write out the dollar value. or they just add it on i've been to so many restaurants where they say we've added an 18% gratuity anything additional is up to you but we're doing this to spread out the tip to the back -- to the kitchen staff that doesn't usually

let's go to my pal david, brooke and james.ng the process will take, assuming they get a vote passed tomorrow that calls for something like a process even though it's not a formal inquiry, then what? >> yeah. i think the vote may tell us whether this dies immediately or eventually. looking back to impeachment of bill clinton in 1998, you had five democrats in a republican house voting for it. if this has little or no republican support, i think you kind of -- neil: in the house, there may not be any republicans. >> going forward, i wouldn't think it goes too much further than that. neil: what do you think? >> look, i think this is the right way forward, because people have been complaining what's the process, what's the process. how hopefully we can get over the process questions and on to the substance. in a rare moment of agreement between democrats and the president today, it would seem. neil: not all republicans agree with this. right? >> that's right. that's right. but i think in general, democrats are the majority party a

david brooks and others are raising an elitism argument.ving the decision to whether he continues in office up to millions of americans, house democrats want to hand this decision to 100 mostly millionaire senators. that's the gist of it. >> bill: you wrote your piece saying it was ironic, your words, if the democrats round up forfeiting their chance to get rid of the president the correct way. >> it would give a mandate to any democratic nominee able to beat donald trump if that happened. also, this sort of plays to the president's strength of reality tv warfare where he is tweeting about civil war and questioning whether adam schiff should be arrested for treason. donald trump is very good at this and it takes it away from the issues. the left is saying what does this have to do with the issues i care about, education, healthcare, taxes if they're arguing about ukraine. not that they aren't serious allegation. it's a risky strategy. >> 20 republicans senators would need to convert and buy your argument to go forward with it. >> hard to im

therefore, the question and david brooks wrote an excellent column a week ago.t to put our country through all the back and forth and as a consequence eliminate the national debate that takes place every four years? it is an important debate whether you're republican, democrat, independent where we go next on the country. what democrats stand for, what republicans stand for. what we value as americans. all that will go out the window if we move forward with the impeachment. >> bill: are they clouding the issues by having too much focus on this? >> i said it's crazy. you are dead right. i think it play into the president's hand. it will be a contest of personalities, donald trump versus jerry nadler and nancy pelosi. i mean, for the heartland of america that movie plays to trump's side rather than jerry nadler's side. i think it is destructive. >> bill: do you see donald trump losing to elizabeth warren or bernie sanders? do you see that as a possibility in 2020? >> i don't know. i don't know. it's an eternity as you well know between here and next november in th
