“The reality of the situation is that we’ve had an investigation going on for over two years where there is zero evidence,” Trump Jr. said.

“We haven’t seen any investigations into all of the shade, all of the stuff that has gone on with our opponent that were actual, real things that had happened, that she was involved in, that transpired. There’s not even an investigation.” (RELATED: Schiff Claims House Intel Republicans ‘Secretly Altered’ Spy Memo)

“But you can take a fringe person on a campaign, utilize that to get all of these FISA warrants to spy on someone who’d ultimately become the President of the United States. To continue to do so, based on evidence, paid for by their political opponent, given and weaponized by the sitting administration at the time. I mean, what about this doesn’t reek of a banana republic, Tucker?”

The Daily Caller co-founder replied, “It doesn’t sound very American to me.”
