NICOLLE WALLACE (HOST): Marc, I will call some friends over at Fox and try to get you a booking, but we're not going to peddle -- that's not true. And all we're asking you -- listen, we appreciate that you come here and speak on behalf of Donald Trump, but why can't you say that we don't know if -- I mean, we know there was attempted collusion, and if it's not a crime, why are you so defensive about it?

MARC LOTTER: Well, I'm not being defensive, you are accusing me of lying -- 

WALLACE: You are madly defensive, you are about to jump through the camera and punch Steve Schmidt in the neck -- 

LOTTER: Well, I get called being untrustworthy -- 

WALLACE: Why can't you say that it's possible that collusion took place? It's probably going to end up that they tried and were incompetent colluders, but if it's not a crime, why are you -- why is it such a raw nerve for you guys?
