that trump likely you're so vain by carlie simon pucci never knew who was about but it was about spiro agnewit's a sad way to respond in a very defensive way. >> i noticed that trump doesn't really seem to mind but it's too long. i don't want to watch it. you know what though i do like facts. there better than things that are not facts to dam pro facts and i'm wondering what that apple is doing now. it's so famous. what is it doing now? rate it probably went to apple. if you don't get another call than you are down in the san fernando valley with acute kumquat and a zucchini and it's disgusting, tyrus, it's disgusting. >> i do want to talk about this. and you were right who the hell can tell an apple who we want to be. maybe an apple wants to be a coconut. just put them in front of everybody and tell them what he is. and what color apple? why shouldn't the green apple it on tv? why is it the red apple? >> i won't even get to why they chose a banana. >> it's like one of those things we got them. greg: what message is this sending to children wax you can't be in orange. >> it's the perfect ad

other officers with whom they're serving, that was established with richard nixon's vice president, spiro agnewt a president on trial while he's serving in office. we have to remember, we need these rules for presidents we love as much as for presidents we loathe. because a president, unlike the other branches of government, has nondelegatable duties, it would interfere too much with the executive branch to put a president on trial. now, it could be, though, the office of legal counsel has ruled to the contrary, it could be a president could be indicted without going forward. without going forward with the prosecution. and that would serve a very valuable purpose of not letting the statute of limitations run on any crimes. generally you have to bring criminal charges within five years. for tax evasion it would be six years. indicting a president but not going forward would at least stop the statute of limitations. a wise special counsel may decide it's wise to submit a report to the attorney general, in this case deputy attorney general rosenstein. it would be up to the deputy attorney general
