WALTZ: Perhaps. I don't know John Kelly. I don't think I've ever even met him. He clearly has a deep disdain for Donald Trump and was fired by him. You also have the owner of The Atlantic magazine is a huge donor for Kamala Harris and a close personal friend, so I find that incredibly interesting.
And on this kind of enemies within, what President Trump actually said was if we have national unrest, if we have riots, if we have people, law and order is broken down, then it is completely appropriate to use the military. The National Guard has been used throughout our history.
KEILAR: Congressman, he's talked about -- he has named the Pelosi's -- Congressman, he has named your colleague Adam Schiff.
WALTZ: You had Adam Schiff on this network and many others lying to the American people, opening a hearing lying to the American people --
KEILAR: Whatever --
WALTZ: -- he's saying that he had seen, but you raised [them]. And saying he had seen --
(CROSSTALK)
WALTZ: -- saying he had seen evidence of Russian collusion that proved to be false. And our country was in total chaos for two years on a hoax --
KEILAR: Whatever -- Congressman --
WALTZ: -- which also affected our relationship with Russia. So that is an enemy within. And I don't think that he said that he's going to use the military to target him. He said in one part of the conversation, we have to quell riots and keep law and order, and if the military needs to support law enforcement, fine. And on the other hand, he said we have people that are misleading the American public, that's causing chaos.
KEILAR: I just want to be clear, he's talked about the National Guard, and then he talked about the military.
WALTZ: But let's go back to -- let's go back to this notion of fascism and centralized control, because we have an allegation of rhetoric, we have, you know, he said versus he said. And then what I'm seeing are actual actions by the progressive left. I mean, fascism really is about no checks and balances, no controls.
They want to stack the Supreme Court, I've seen that legislation. They want to eliminate the filibuster, our last kind of harbinger of bipartisanship. They want to eliminate the Electoral College, which would have just a couple of cities determining our next president.Those are critical checks and balances that will check power for anyone, and the left is actually moving to eliminate them because they don't like him.
So what I think voters are going to have to decide in these next couple of weeks is we have allegations of rhetoric from a conversation four years ago, or actions that they are seeing right now from the left or the lack of action in terms of making their lives better in the economy and crime and the border and in global chaos. And I think it's those actions that they're going to be voting on or the lack thereof.
