00:00Go ahead.
00:00Is it considered a success if you
00:02were able to usher in that pressure
00:05to make America's resign, even if you don't necessarily
00:08vote to convict or remove?
00:11America isn't going to resign.
00:13You know that, and I know that.
00:16You mentioned points of order.
00:17Sir, can you detail the kinds of points of order
00:19you're thinking of offering?
00:21I know you said it's up to them in terms
00:22of whether they recognize you.
00:24But what are your ideas in terms of points of order?
00:26Well, I'm not going to tell you.
00:28Stay tuned.
00:29You should actually watch the proceedings.
00:31But I will tell you this.
00:32You'll be impressed.
00:35But we will have lots of points of order,
00:38and we will have lots of motions.
00:41Let me say it again.
00:41And maybe some free-range chickens.
00:43And maybe some free-range chickens.
00:44But I don't know if we'll even get to make them.
00:47Because if Senator Schumer walks in there and gives
00:51the high sign to the Speaker pro tem,
00:55and she won't recognize anybody but Senator Schumer,
00:58they can even get rid of our responsibility
01:02to raise points of order.
01:04Because this thing is unconstitutional.
01:07I mean, you know it's unconstitutional.
01:09It's clearly unconstitutional.
01:12Go ahead.
