Live on Bloomberg TV

00:00Yesterday in my view one of the darkest days in the history of our nation. An unprecedented assault on our democracy. Saul. Literally on the citadel of liberty and the United States Capitol itself. An assault on the rule of law an assault on the most sacred of American undertakings. Ratifying the will of the people and choosing the leadership of their government. All of us here grieve the loss of life. Grieve the desecration of the people's house. But we what we witnessed yesterday was not dissent. It was not disorder. It was not protest. It was chaos. They weren't. Protesters don't dare call them protest. They were a riotous mob insurrectionists domestic terrorists. It's that basic it's that simple. I wish we could say we couldn't see it coming. But that isn't true. We could see it coming. The past four years we've had a president who's made his contempt for our democracy our constitution the rule of law clear and everything he has done. He unleashed. An all out assault on our institutions of our democracy from the outset and yesterday was the culmination of that unrelenting attack. He's attacked the free press who dared to question his power repeatedly calling the free press the enemy of the people. Language at the time he first Jews and I and others said has long been used by autocrats and dictators all over the world to hold on to power. The enemy of the people.
