Tom Brokaw said American voters are making Donald Trump's impeachment hearings 'more complex' than they really are when he stopped by TheLateShow
"I hope that the country will be able to kind of hang together here and take an enlightened attitude — on the left and on the right — about what we're in for," the journalist said about the ongoing process when he stopped by 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert' on Monday.
"It wasn't like breaking and entering, which is what we had going on in the White House days of Richard Nixon," he continued. Trump has implemented "blanket executive privilege" that keeps specific people from testifying and he has declared that the investigation is illegitimate. Richard Nixon used the same method during his impeachment investigation, which Brokaw was able to talk to Nixon about.
Brokaw then circled back to discuss Trump's impeachment hearings. "We've got rough waters ahead of us," Brokaw said. "I hope that the country will be able to kind of hang together here and take an enlightened attitude — on the left and on the right — about what we're in for." While he noted that White House correspondents and journalists "didn't have all the answers" back in the day, they "worked very hard in determining what in fact had happened because we were liable for it at the end of the day and the country paid attention to it on that basis."
