i passed nothing on to donald trump or the trump campaign. we've been through this ad nause nauseam. it is a wild goose chase. >> i think if they bring a case against me it will be a fabricated case and there's no circumstances whatsoever, ed, in which i will testify against the president. >> real quickly -- >> of course when he came out with that little teaser, that john podesta with the dnc was about to be facing his time in a barrel, he's going to have his unpleasantness coming upon him and of course a couple weeks later all the hacking came out, and then he's tried to be -- i think it's kind of cute there, jason, in his denials. i didn't have an exact time, i didn't do this. if you listen to him the way he said dissembled there he didn't exactly deny he knew something. >> oh, exactly. he's just dancing. he's soft-shoeing around everything. because if and when he gets dragged and and there will be additional investigations into him he can say i never said i didn't know anything, i just said i didn't know what 4:15 p.m. on this particular -

you never know with trump. i do think on november 6th, november 7th, especially if the democrats win the house, which is likely, the degree to which things will start happening very quickly can't be -- it's just going to be kind of remarkable. i assume mueller knows that as a political matter. i wonder how much he's aiming for that november/december window to really start to bring things to a close, to wrap it up and have a report. >> christian? >> i'm telling you the clock is ticking. i don't think -- to be a contrarian a little bit i don't think mueller is concerned about the election. trump is not on the ballot box. neither are his campaign aides, he's going to keep going with his work. all the hearings that are lined up in the coming days and weeks. the coming trial of manafort, manafort now in talks to possibly work out a plea deal. he's going to keep working. he is not concerned about political considerations because none of the people so far involved in this are up for election. so his work is going to c

trump. she says he groped her in the first-class cabibin of a commercial flight in the 1980's. >> it was a real shock en all of a sden his ndnds we allll over m m when he stard putting his ha up my skirt, that was it. that was it. amy: we will also speak with lili bernard, artist and actress who has accused bill cosby of drugging and raping her in the -- raping her when he mentored her in preparation for her guest starring role on "the cosby show." cosby was just sentenced to 3 years to 10 years in prison. then we go to yale university where students at the law school wore black monday and protested their alumnus kavanaugh's nomination. >> we want these allegations to be taken fully serious. we're urging them to give us much process as individuals as possible. amy: finally, venezuelan president nicolas maduro arrives at the united nations general assembly just one day after trump accused him of corruption and announced new sanctions. >> despite all of the differences, which could be consider

trump. we need to know. s that matter of national security. and when an administration, and this would go for any administration of either party, shows such bizarre deference to an adversary who clearly means us harm, it falls to congress to get the answers, that's our job. mr. chairman, i know you've been working hard to get secretary pompeo in front of our committee so we can all ask these questions. it's outrageous he hasn't come before us, especially since he did pay the senate that courtesy. but you have tried to allow us to do our job and i'm grateful for your effort. this administration just doesn't seem to respect this branch of government's -- government as a co-equal branch of government. this is one of the rules we have to get answers fromen an administration. i share the frustration that led mr. boyle to offer this measure and i fully support his effort to find out what happened in president trump's failed summit with the russian dictator in helsinki. i think it's a pretty reason

that is not just about trump. that is part of a bipartisan war that has been waged on the theic in puerto rico using debt as an excuse. when it comes to the attacks on the mayor of san juan, it is striking because many of the worst examples, the most lethal examples, of the failure of relief efforts in puerto rico were outside of san juan. nonot to say that things went wl in san juan, but the world was introduced to mayoyor cruz becae wading. trumpifferent than tossing paper towels. he always saw her as a threat. but the worst accounts we saw after the hurricane had to do with community's that were more isolated, places like -- where it was weeks before there was any visit from fema. then when they finally -- somebody came, they were offered skittles and crackers. and it was months and monthshs befofore placeces got power at . this is really a distraction by focusing on mayor carmen yulin cruz. i think it is about him banking on the misogyny of his base. he has made a very crude the type of woman that he l likes.

what is president trump saying this morning? >> reporter: it is a remarkable tweet when you consider all the times the president tweets and comments about the russian investigation. he did it with emphasis today, the illegal mueller witch hunt continues in search of a crime. obviously there were crimes that were just resulted in convictions jeagainst manafort the search was fruit full for the mueller team. there was never conclusion by russia so the angry democrats are looking anything they can find. they are looking for anything they can find, very unfair and also not allowed under the law. not sure what the president is suggesting for that portion. not allowed under the law is a big question mark. today we heard from a former member of the administration, mark shore who serves as the president's legislative affairs. he was often faced at the white house and capitol hill. today he was asked about the president's conduct when it comes to look at this investigation. here is what he had to say. >> i think paul was brought in at th

donald trump remembers it. it's a powerful moment for him as a new yorker, but it should be for all of us. >> we are going to be covering that throughout the morning as well as some of the other top headlines. this morning, it is a state of emergency from maryland to the carolinas as hurricane florence barrels toward the united states as a powerful category 4 storm. governors in north carolina, south carolina, and virginia have issued mandatory evacuation orders impacting at least 1 million people ahead of the storm's landfall. florence rapidly intensified between sunday and monday with winds jumping from 75 miles per hour to about 130 miles per hour. let's bring in bill karins for more on this. bill is tracking it. bill. >> good morning to you, mika. it's hard to see how this would not be a multibillion dollar weather disaster in the carolinas possibly up through virginia. we're at 140-mile-per-hour winds. a very strong category 4. we are now about 975 miles away from the mouth of the cape fear river. so we st

you l trump day to day. robert: you've had the opportunity to spend so much time talking to these key players inside, talking to you in deep background, revealingwh 's really happening. what have you learned about president trump as a person? h you saye knows the markets. what else does he know? bob: he doesn't know some of the markets. he knows they're out there buthe hinks things like, let's just print money, run the presses.th 're telling him, no, you can't do that, you'll run up the deficit. as you know, economists on the left and the r, republicans and democrats, are worried about the deficit spending. but it's just, let'so it, let's print money. robert: secretary jim mattis in the defense department, chief of staff, john kelly, are they getting too much credit for keeping president trump in linee use he still seems to be going his own way on every front. bob: that's a really interesting question. where's the credit? i think it happens at lots of levels. there are some people who've read the book who sa

but he goes to see trump. he's going to go on television on a sunday show and trump says, tell them i'm putting tariffs up to $500 billion on china. now, this was four or five months ago. of course, that's exactly where he's heading. an the president's so so pumped up about this, he says, you know, boy, it's too bad it's a sunday show because if it were monday and the markets were open, you'd tank the markets. the president's job is not to tank the market.o it's t stabilize the markets. i was really surprised by that, that he would -- because hte sp all this time in new york, understands finance a way. in a way he n does. but to speak proudly of tanking the markets, potentially. what the did you think? you live trump day to day. opportunity to spend so much time talking to these key player iide, talking to you ea deep background, revealing what'sy happening. what have you learned about president trump as a person? youwsay he k the markets. what else does he know? h bo doesn't know some of the markets. he knows

their power to undermine donald trump. meanwhile, gabriel sherman is reporting that the man you see there, former fox executive bill shine who runs white house communications for trump is comparing a media plan to build public support for trump to fire rosenstein. here is a new call for laura ingram calling for trump to do just that. let's get to our experts now that we've laid out the multiple dimensions of the story. kim whalley, nick akerman, and part of the reporting i mentioned, nbc's intelligence and national security journalist, ken dilanian is here. when you read the new york times version, secondhand of these things said by rosenstein, do they sound like things he wanted to do, to run a wiretap and remove the president? >> what i know is that he's a man of impeccable integrity, and really someone who believes in public service and the rule of law. i think the question here is, he's doing his job as deputy attorney general. i don't think there's any question he's been doing that. donald trump can fire him under art

. >> and trump doesn't -- like most things with trump, you don't have to say anything. you could just be quiet. you know, you don't have to step into this. trump goes out of his way, even on twitter, to defend paul manafort. there seems to be a pretty growing consensus, i don't have any fact that this is the case, but an assumption of a paul manafort pardon coming at some point. there seems to be a growing assumption of that. and yeah, he also likes to portray paul manafort as someone who's barely involved in the campaign. which is a classic move. everyone who gets caught up in a legal issue is now all of a sudden someone he barely knew. >> betsy, he also did that with flynn for a while, remember? he was sort of teasing him, offering him, i'm really sad for the guy. then he sort of stopped that stuff. he's still working on manafort. >> what's interesting about the flynn situation is that he has been working with mueller's team for months and months now. and the date of his sentencing keeps getting moved forward. now, there hasn't been public reporting as to what exactly

we will hear from president trump and president rouhani. clserly president trump will the u.n. session on wednesday to try and isolate iran. what is the u.s. strategy here? >> i think the u.s. strategy is to essentially tell countries and companies around theld w that you have to make a very simple choice. do you want to do business with iran or do you want to do siness with the united states, because you can't do both.wh you talk to u.s. diplomats, they say, that's fine, the europeans and others may complain about our unilateralism, but, at the end' of the day,'s a no-brainer if we force them to choose between eerica and iran. what you hear fropeans is that the leadership in europe says this is not multilateral diplomacy. this is essentially america strong-arming us into doing what theyant. laura: britain's prime minister said at the weekend that iran is abiding by the terms of the nuclear deal. there is a big mting today at the u.n. between iranian officials and the european powers and the russians and the chinese. they want iran to stayn. do you think they will? >> it is dif

the book is called "fear: trump in the white house." woodward writes that he conducted and recorded, notably, hundreds of houses of interviews for the book while also reviewing notes, personal diaries, government documents. "the washington post" reports that woodward describes, quote, a nervous breakdown of the executive branch under his president and woodward depicts trump's anger and paranoia about the russian inquiry as unrelenting, paralyzing the west wing for entire days. among the most revealing details are the interactions between president trump and his first lead attorney in the russia investigation who you'll remember is john dowd. according to "the post" woodward writes dowd was convinced he would commit perjury if he ever talked to mueller. tried to prep the president for a pop sit-down. dowd peppered trump with questions provoking stumbles, contradictions and lies until the president eventually lost his cool. this thing's a gd hoax that started a 30-minute rant that finished with him saying i don't want to testify -- i don'

one quote is directly related to you, during your briefing for the president-elect trump at trump tower, and here's what he said. he said about you, i don't believe in human sources, these are people who have sold their souls and sold out their country. i don't trust human intelligence and these spies. can you confirm that quote? >> first i've been interviewed by bob for two or three of his books, and he is a skilled questioner. >> how long did you say you've been interviewed by him? >> two or three -- a couple of his previous -- i thought he was a thoughtful, thorough questioner. a skillful questioner, who prepares, and what he did here, my recollection is, i didn't feed him that quote. what he does, though, typically is feed you or posit something and ask you to respond. corroborate or not. it's pretty accurate as to what the president-elect at the time thought about human intelligence. and i have to say that in fairness he's not unique. there are others that feel the same way, people selling out their country for us. and that's true. we recruit people who for a variety of reasons, so

she wrote that during the construction of trump tower, he was inspecting the elevators and trump looked at the panels where the buttons you push to reach a floor were located. he noticed that next to each number were some little dots. "what's this?" trump asked. "braille," the architect replied. you'd think trump would love braille-- it's like reading through groping! ( laughter ) ( applause ) "oh, oh, oh, yeah -- i like, i like."

( laughter ) ( applause ) ( piano riff ) i love the cheering, but i was being the blind decorator hearing the decor. ( laughter ) according to rez, trump knew that the architect couldn't actually take the braille off, but ordering an underling to do something that was impossible gave trump the opportunity to yell at them and also blame them for anything that went wrong l

had trump over a barrel. this meeting between bruce orr and christopher steele took place on july 30th, 2016, just one week after the first batch of hacked dnc e-mails released by wikileaks and exactly three days after then candidate trump asked russia for some help. >> russia, if you are listening, i hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. i think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. >> okay. there is no disputing the fact that russians were caught working to hurt hillary clinton's campaign and help donald trump's campaign in the 2016 presidential election. that's not really up for dispute. and donald trump still never criticizes russian president vladimir putin, which has surely left special prosecutor robert mueller wondering whether vladimir putin has something on donald trump. it looked that way in helsinki, didn't it. it's a question the entire world has been wondering about, especially after helsinki. now all of this, not helsinki, everything that came before it, y

do you like arnold trump or are you troubled by donald trump? to the degree that barack obama becomes the face of the democratic party and to the opposition this fall. yes of course he mobilizes a lot of people. especially minorities, young people, but he also may mobilize a lot of conservative voters that don't want to return to the days of higher taxes and more regulation of the past. >> you can anticipate he would energize a conservative base, i think that never got over the election of the first black president. obama is going to illinois, he's going to california. he's doing a lot of fundraising that is basically - - >>chris: but he's also getting national exposure. >> because he's a former president point i would say this, in fact historically in midterms, it's the democrats with a problem with turnout. i think there's the fear among democrats that you don't want to count your eggs before they're hatched. remember what happened with the polls and the 2016 presidential race. they want to major their energizing their baseand critically, reac

trump won by 19 points. his popularity has dimmed a bit with his attempts to dismantle obamacare and his tariffs which have hit missouri farms and industry pretty hard. trade has always been a big issue. if they're voting for eisenhower in '52, against it in '56. we'll be right back. elicious. or fun. but since you need both car and home insurance, why not bundle them with esurance and save up to 10%? which you can spend on things you really want to buy, like... well, i don't know what you'd wanna buy because i'm just a guy on your tv. esurance. it's surprisingly painless. of america, we use diagnostic tools that help us better understand what drives each person's cancer. like christine bray. after battling ovarian cancer for several years, her test results revealed a drug therapy that targeted her tumor. today, christine's metastatic cancer is in remission. we're not just fighting cancer. we're outsmarting it. visit cancercenter.com. appointments available now. >>> back with the round table. tell me somethi

says there is a resistance to donald trump within the trump administration. an anonymous team of trump administration officials who are resistors, who work against the president's wishes to prevent his most dangerous impulses from turning into action. the new impeachment polling comes after the arrival of bob woodward's stunning new book on the trump presidency called "fear." a title that captures most americans' feeling about the trump presidency according to the new poll. 47% of the country is ready to impeach and remove donald trump from office right now. right now. and they have not heard one word yet about donald trump from special prosecutor robert mueller. imagine what will happen to that number with the country does know everything that robert mueller knows. hut are t what are the chances of that 47% going down? president trump doesn't think it will go down, and new reporting indicates he is in full panic over the prospect of being impeached by a democratic house and now possibly tried by a democratic senator. axios reports tonight a new months ago he

policy team meeting at trump tower. >> when did you first meet trump? >> march 31st at the national security meeting. >> senator jeff sessions is there. what was discussed in terms of russia, in terms of meeting with putin? >> as far as i remember it wassi who brought up anything regarding russia. the so-called professor was able to provide high level connections in russia that would result in some sort of summit or meet eng, mostly for a photo op. so i looked the candidate -- i looked at candidate trump directly in his eyes and said i can do this for you aif you're interest and the campaign's interest the collective energy in the room -- of course there were some decenters but the collective energy seemed to be interested >> was donald trump interested? >> the candidate -- he gave me sort of a nod. he wasn't committed either way. i took it as he was thinking. >> senator jeff sessions was there too. at the table. what was his response? >> my recollection was the senator was enthusiastic about the meeting between the candidate and putin. >> you say sessi

donald trump jr. today slammed critics of the president, tweeting, quote, injecting politics today is disgraceful. but, of course, we have seen president trump be political today and inject politics today. starting with his very first tweet about peter strzok and the fbi. >> i mean, i guess i still resent the fact that i have to pay attention to what donald trump's children say on twitter. all of the time. i mean, seriously. why is this still happening? it's a sad fact of his presidency that he doesn't inspire real leadership and continues to rely on his children to conduct official work and be surrogates in the media. and that's just gross. >> let's just take a look at some of the few tweets that the president did send about 9/11. the first one is a retweet of his white house aide, a photograph of the president himself, signing a proclamation in the oval office about 9/11. next, praise of new york mayor rudy guiliani, who is his attorney and represents him on cable tv. 8:30, the president tweeted a p

trump? >> ever since he hired andrew wise man and brought him on -- wiseman and brought him on this task force i know he has no under in seeking the truth. wiseman is the read villain in the "license to lie. so, no, he's not interesting in getting the truth. he is part of the understand policy concocted with mccabe, strzok, mccabe and others to destroy the president. which is why he's featured on my website t-shirt. david: why should nun cooperate with somebody who is out to get their scalp. >> i understand why the president wants to, and i appreciate the fact he's bent most of transparent president in long history. but i would not allow him to do that under any circumstances were i advising him. you simply cannot trust that environment to produce anything other than an indictment for the slightest misstatement. look at mr. papadopoulos who gave a wrong time frame for some of his conversations with people and wound up being indicted. david: the real collusion story, the collusion between the

says there is a resistance to donald trump within the trump administration. an anonymous team of trump administration officials who are resistors, who work against the president's wishes to prevent his most dangerous impulses from turning into action. the new impeachment polling comes after the arrival of bob woodward's stunning new book on the trump presidency called "fear." a title that captures most americans' feeling about the trump presidency according to the new poll. 47% of the country is ready to impeach and remove donald trump from office right now. right now. and they have not heard one word yet about donald trump from special prosecutor robert mueller. imagine what will happen to that number with the country does know everything that robert mueller knows. what are the chances of that 47% going down? president trump doesn't think it will go down, and new reporting indicates he is in full panic over the prospect of being impeached by a democratic house and now possibly tried by a democratic senator. axios reports tonight a new months ago he was scoff

were anti-trump. so is that enough to warrant this sort of presidential blast? shana: the article struck a chord with people following recent coverage about buys at tech companies. what concerns me is there was a woman who sat behind a few different computers and it's caused such an uproar from censorship to calling for federal investigation. it's mismatched to the actual study that was performed. howie: who is going to tress the government to decide the perfect balance in all news searches. when cnn or "washington post" or "new york times" pops up in these ranking. doesn't google reward the most of popular websites? >> yes. it's hard to translate the journalistic values into a set of rules they use and apply to every one. google weighs traffic to sites, and that plays against these smaller sites with maybe a handful of reporters putting out a few stories a day versus dozens of stories being put out by "the washington post" or other mainstream media organizations. howie: you are saying google rewards

he is the same trump who ran the trump organization. he is the same donald trump that everyone in new york has known for the last 50 years. this is exactly who this guy is. >> let's listen what bob woodward told rachel about the need to create a process in the white house. john kelly at a certain point, chief of staff realizing that they had to do something so that when donald trump simply tweets something or says something, it doesn't automatically become the next action of the white house. let's listen to this. >> presidents can do wonderful things and they can do disastrous things. the process really matters. it finally gets to a point in the book where general kelly, who is the chief of staff, sits down with rob porter who is the staff secretary and says, we need to write up rules and we need to tell the president that if he makes one of these seat of the pants decisions, it's not final. we have to sit down and have a process where the president will actually literally sign a document, a decision memo. it's not final. you can't run

those who support trump won't like it, those who do not like trump will love it. howie: on the "today show," savannah guthrie pressed woodward about the denials. >> john kelly said that never happened, i didn't say it. jim mattis quoted saying the president's understanding is like a 5th or 6th grader. he says he didn't say it. are they lying? >> they are not telling the truth. how there are rob porter the former staff secretary said there are often misleading portraits, but didn't deny any of the sources in the book. kat: books like this in general, i don't understand the point of them. as cathy said, they just reiterate what people already think. howie: woodward spent many months going behind the scenes. you don't think there is any value in a book like this? >> i understand the point of it, but i don't understand if he thinks it will change any minds here. anybody who thinks that trump is not a great guy looks at this as further evidence trump is not a great guy and the white house is in complete chaos. but people who support him say its anonymous, it's just mor

trump one way or the other. but i would like the president of the united states to be an example of the rule of law here and an example of democracy here. that's what i would very much like to see regardless of the party. >> timothy snyder, author of "the road to unfreedom." thank you so much for joining us. >> it's been my great pleasure. thank you so much. >>> and that is it for our program tonight. thanks for watching "amanpour" on pbs and join us again next time. milan's monumental cemetery. while there are many evocative cemeteries in europe, this one -- with its emotional portrayals of the departed and their heavenly escorts -- in the melodramatic art styles from the late 19th and early 20th centuries -- is in a class by itself. it's a vast garden art gallery of proud busts and grim reapers, heartbroken angels and weeping widows... soldiers too young to die. acres of grief, hope, and memories. >> national presentation of bbc world news is made possible by contributions to your pbs station from viewers like

trump, at least in part. but he says the nafta deal needs to include canada. >> the three countries in north america, the economy's pretty inintegrated. it's pretty hard to see how that would work without having canada in the deal. there's a lot of work to be done, even on the mexican deal, because the language isn't drafted. we haven't seen whole chapters of the thing. we're anxious to move forward with it and anxious to have all three countries involved because nafta has had a devastating effect on the working people of this country for the last 25 years. arthel.>> our starting point waa place where canada and the u.s. were quite far apart in their proposal but what we found is negotiation on is canada and the united states shared a concern for our workers in the car sector. >> reporter: the u.s. and canada missed the deadline for a deal on friday. as you just heard from canada's trade representative, she did seem to suggest that the u.s. trade representative and their team were working in good faith despit

day 614 of the trump administration. which is getting a new assist tonight in its effort to quickly move from controversy to confirmation or so they hope for supreme court nominee federal judge brett kavanaugh. tonight, the senate judiciary committee scheduled a vote on kavanaugh to take place friday morning. that would be one day after the hearing in which he and dr. christine blasey ford who accused him of sexual assault are both testifying. t the committee which has a majority of 11 1 republicans, men, hired a woman attorney to question ford and kavanaugh. moments ago the committee chairman chuck grassley confirmed what the "washington post" was first to report tonight. that the committee has, indeed, selected rachel l mitchell, an arizona county sex crimes prosecutor. mitchell is officially the sex crimes bureau chief for maricopa county, arizona, of sheriff joe arpaio fame. while all of this is going on, brett kavanaugh is also facing another allegation related to sexual misconduct. deborah ramirez told "the new yor

in your view what are the wrists of this trump doctrine or policy. i think you know what's already been said here trump seems to have a fundamentally different calculation of what is american grand strategy which was to dish and understood as a form of liberal germany's america is investing in and investing in alliances and partnerships to underwrite a liberal international rules based order support for democracy support for free trade support for allies and partners in terms of the terror and and trump wants to move into a world which is completely based on trends actually sions alone so if you want to have nature protection if you want american military protection and pay for it in forms of you know higher defense budget international trade free trade comes at the expense of the united states what we see is a really a foreign security policy that is much more informed by oryol politics thinking balance of power some game calculations and that is quite a radical departure from the last seventy years of post world war american foreign policy in turn

trump's wild ride. the thrills, chills, screams and occasional blackouts of an extraordinary president. brian: major garrett, your book "mr. trump's wild ride." you say this, this book is not primarily about trump's lies, rancor, lies or flamboyance. why? mr. garrett: because that is a fairly well covered aspect of the trump presidency. brian, i learned during the campaign that one of the biggest challenges come i mention this in the book about donald trump, as a political force, as a reality, american politics, is every day there are 10 to 12 or more really interesting things. but there are also three or four really important things. as i worked every day covering this white house, and as i work for 60 months covering the campaign, the biggest challenge, what is it? focusing on the important and not relentlessly being distracted by the interesting. and donald trump generates tremendous amount of interesting things, intentionally sometimes, unintentionally other times. so the book is about what happened

is sport trump aren't. not this is of course from a brit in canada sort of and the strategic consideration for domestic concerns like to strum power trudeau answer probably for now is of oil or a point of favorable comparison but he goes on to say i think there's a risk especially with an election coming up in canada of us reaching the point of over saturation and for tea and even the normalization of absurdity since we only have so much energy so much time and so much to ram into i want to go to you with this because as you mentioned your election is coming up and there are those comparisons with a candidate that is like trump but is there a danger in that for your viewers the comparison analysis well i think the comparisons are fair they are pretty similar they in actually he's a seems like our president candidate or not or he's. bringing from the. book to our election a lot of the phrases a lot of the. inflammatory comments and rhetoric in they have a pretty similar agenda they are law and order candidat

trump's worst impulses as president trump taking aim as a bombshell book about the presidency written by the journalist bob woodward that echos many of the same themes, the idea of senior administration officials trying to protect the country from the president, fear trump in the white house is a book that portrays a staff worried about endangering national security. insults from the president and others. today president trump is claiming that it's all fiction and baselessly suggested that bob woodward is a democratic operative. let's get back to cnn's kaitlan collins at the white house. cnn learned that president trump is on a mission of sorts to find out who in his administration current and previously spoke to bob woodward and already i'm guessing whispers in the west wing about who might have written this op-ed. >> reporter: that's right. when the white house woke up this morning they were already knee deep in the crisis, the fallout from the book and the stunning claims he made in it attributed to several senior officials here roaming the walls of the west wing and struggling wit
