[laughter] steve scalise has said something just as nice. but no. he just gave me, i think, because the book is a total piece of fiction, and he was totally -- not even misquoted. he never made the statement. he came out with the statement that honestly, you know, i've heard over the years that general mattis' -- is an -- mattis is an intellect. when i read his statement i asked whether or not this is true. he said, the not true and i'd like to write a statement i said thank you very much. that's very nice. he wrote the most beautiful statement. he's a terrific person. he's doing a fantastic job as secretary of defense. reporter: and he'll stay in that job? president trump: yeah. he'll stay right there. we're very happy with him. we're having a lot of victories. we're having victories that people don't even know about. he's highly respected all over the world. and i did appreciate his statement because he didn't have to write that. but i did appreciate it and i appreciated the statement of john kelly. and i appreciate thed statement -- i appreciated

[cheering] >> so it frightened a lot of people and of course the lying president said that i had threatened all his constituents. i did not threaten his constituents, his supporters, i do that all the time, but i didn't do it that time. >> laura: that's just utterly disgraceful and it is not funny. you know why it is not funny? lives are endangered by reckless speech like this, not political debate, not debating the issues here. it's a conversation that goes one way, you're abhorrent, you are awful, you are like hitler, a nazi, destroy you by any means necessary, that is how the game goes. well, i say it is time for the democratic party to not only co

i can't remember a single casese where they didn't, except when steve scalise was shot.idn't hear anybody on the left call for gun control in the wake of that. >> the call for gun control is because of the continuous and epidemic levels of both gun violence in america.a. i'm a pro-second amendment person. i own way more guns than you own, tucker. >> tucker: i don't think that's possible, but thank you. >> i am from georgia. i own more guns than you can. imagine. but i think it's very important for us to understand that in america we have to stop deranged, mentally ill t people from having guns. >> tucker: i agree. >> we have to have some sort of metrics put into place that will prevent individuals from committing mass shootings at schools and other places. on this question of political violence, let's understand that the rhetoric has to be tamped down on all sides.s. >> tucker: can you just address my specific question about the steve scalise shooting. it's possible that i'm misremembering this but i don'tn think i am. the intensity of the calls forco gun control when a
