joining us is former reagan white house political director, ed rollins. t's start with -- you said in an op-ed for fox news today that you work for four presidents, have never seen partisanship like this. i would ask you. isn't this more than partisanship? >> this hatred. my sense is whatever the outcome here, i assume trump wins reelection. you will still have these group who think they can put something else together and come back at him again. the first guy they tried to impeach, johnson who was a racist and lincoln's successor, they went at him four or five times before they got an impeachment. they are going to keep trying to get stuff out of the courts. even if the president wins this, which he will win in the senate, the game is not over. lou: i am not quite sure it many quite as stark as you are intimating. >> are the democrats going to become nice guys? lou: no, but i don't think they are revealing themselves to the american people in a way they wouldn't have done if they knew how this day was going to end. professor karlan revealing the ignorance

ed rollins writes this. sham i've served four presidents, never seen such naked self-serving partisan sh*i. your witness. >> understated. you know, this is an absurd process. impeachment is a very important thing. if you study the history with the exception of johnson, under lincoln who was a racist and terrible human being and maybe should have been impeached. there was a crime as part of the nixon team. there was a crime there, a burglary, break in, cover-up. case of president clinton, there was lying under oath. it was a crime. there is no crime proven here. the three academic -- four academics talking about what rur forefathers intended on bribery and what have you. bribery was you walk in with a bag and cash and buy something. this isn't bribery no matter how much they want to argue it's not there. >> three constitutional scholars yesterday who would disagree with that assessment. lindsey graham back during the 90s disagreed with that assessment that there needed to be an underlying crime for impeachmen
