and trump is now on top. when they set up this meeting last month, no one knew what it was meant to be about, right? they never knew what the meeting was for. they didn't know if it was gonna be about nuclear weapons. was it gonna be about the war in syria, missile defenses in europe? i mean, maybe it was just gonna be trump going in to see putin for his annual performance review. no one knew what it was. the meeting had no agenda, right? but then on friday, robert mueller dropped the bombshell directly charging 12 russian military intelligence officers with hacking democrats during the presidential campaign in an effort to sway the election, which was major news. so now, the formerly purposeless meeting between trump and putin had a meaning. all right? it was time for trump to put his foot down. and he did. right on america's dick. - just now, president putin denied having anything to do with the election interference in 2016. every u.s. intelligence agency has concluded that russia did. who do you believe?

trump's floor. >> he had an office on the same floors mr. trump? >> in fact, his office when he left, became my office. >> isn't it also true that felixted russian mobster sater even have business cards indicating that he was a senior advisor to donald trump as reported by "the washington post"? >> yes. >> to conviction russian mobster felix sater pay rent for his office? >> no, he did not. >> so based on those facts, isn't it true that president worst,isled, at best, or light under oath? >> yes. amy: 10 seconds, marcy wheeler, the significance of this? guy broke green the tower deal all through the election and trump made similar commenents during the election about not knowing felix sater, when in fact, he was negotiating a $300 million real estate deal russians forced of immigrant elijah cummings at the end of the hearing. do believe the president committed crime while in office? looking at the text anand l listening to mr. cohen,t appears that he did. amy: "it appears he committed a crime," said the house committee chair elijah cummings. that d

that was donald trump. well, i'd heard all these rumors about trump, you know, bribes and trump. so i wanted to know were there any bribes. did roy cohn take bribes, is that what he did. and this man kind of laughed, and he said, you don't bribe. if you bribe, you may go to jail. you do favors. i said, what do you mean by favors? and he said, you know, roy did all the work for the gambino mob family, and he did it for free. so whenever, so whenever roy needed a favor, he'd just call the gambino mob family, and they would do whatever he wanted. i thought of that when i was writing about donald trump in my book. in 1982 donald trump -- donald trump is not a palm beach kind of guy. this is a kind of staid, kind of traditional place. even more so in 1982 when donald trump came down here the first time. he stays at the breakers hotel. he's a miami beach kind of guy. he went there all when he was growing up. he stayed at the breakers, it's raining, so he gets a limo, has a limo drive him around the town, and he says what's for sale? and the driver says or, well, mar-a-lago's for sale.

trump later briefly spoke to the press. trtroncoso after a long look, ,fter a long investigation after so many people have been so badly hurt after not looking where a lot ofde bad things happen, a lot t of horrible things happen, very bad things happen for our country, it was just announced there was no collusion with russia, the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. there was no collusion with russia. there was no obstruction and none whatsoever. and it was a complete and total exoneration. amy: democratic leaders on capitol hill are calling on attorney general robert barr to release the full mueller report as well as underlying documentation. many democrats criticized barr for taking just 48 hours to conclude trump had not committed obstruction of justice. this is new york congressman jerrold nadler, the chair of the house judiciary committee. >> first, president trump is wrong. this report does not amount to a so-called total exoneration. special counsel mueller was clear his report "does not exonerate" the president.

of trump enterprises. and congress one question needs to be addressed by the investigative committee why did trump fire james komi. why do you believe you were fired. so i don't know for sure i believe the prick think the president is worried that i was fired because of the russian versification something about the way i was conducting it the president felt created pressure on him they wanted to relieve he was asking for something and i was refusing to give it. and fact early in his term trumpet asked to speak to me in private. there was a meeting at the white house a one on one meeting between trump and call me call me must have had his antenna up because he felt like something was wrong because as soon as he was done that meeting he wrote up these memos. after meeting with comey sat in his car and wrote down what was discussed the meeting was about general fled the advisor who had lied about his contacts with russia trump said he hoped komi come let the matter go. i hope you can let this go now those are

trump's tax returns. republicans attack cohen. >> you lied. >> he lies. >> you are a liar. >> liar, liar, pants on fire. >>> and president trump tells a conservative conference what he thinks of all the investigators. >> and you will of a sudden they're trying to take you out with [ bleep ]. >> i will talk to the vice-chairman of the senate intelligence committee, democrat mark warner and to the ranking republican on the house oversight committee, jim jordan. >>> plus democrats and activists are arguing over impeaching the president. >> impeachment of this corrupt and lawless president is a first step. >> impeachment is a divisive issue in our country and let us see what the facts are. >> debating purity tests for democratic members of congress and disagreeing over what's more important to them in 2020. a candidate who shares their views or one who simply can beat president trump. >>> and finally, no deal. the president walks away without an agreement with kim jong-un on nukes and sanctions. >> sometimes

exactly what trump wants. robert: so it's a legal war, ali cal war and not an isolated battlefield because there are other issues beyond this investigation going on, all these investigations, such as the economy. the laborepartment said friday that u.s. employers added 20,000 new jobs iny, febru far below the 180,000 jobs forecast by economists. at tme same unemployment fell to 3.8%, down from 4% last month. meanwhile, the president, who's railed against trade deficits for years, saw this week the trade deficit surge to an historic high, more than $891 billion, according to the commerce department. the president also facing disappointing jobs numbers on friday, trade deficit amid a trade war. when you're on capitol hl, es that cause republicans to maybe get a little more uneasy about this white house? there are already tensions about a national emergency declaration, now new economic numbers. shawna: republicre nervous about this white house anyway and what 2020 will mean for them but i also think the problem

president trump has had his say. he's climbing the stairs there to air force one, leaving florida and heading back to washington. if you havejustjoined us washington. if you havejustjoined us he was just saying there that after a long look, after this long investigation, he went on to say that so many people were badly hurt, bad things happened, bad things happened to our country. he says essentially there was no collusion, there was no obstruction and he went on to say that it's a shame that the country had to go through this, making the point that no one was looking at the other side. this was an illegal take—down, he said, that failed. president trump in florida, those stairs will move away shortly and he'll be heading back to washington and the white house. our correspondent in washington, chris buckler, has been going through the report for us. yeah, this is a four page report for us. yeah, this is a four pa g e letter report for us. yeah, this is a four page letter that's been written by the attorney general

trump is a nominee. you're meeting with the candidate's son at trump tower with this very sketchy dude george nater who is a become channel and been convicted of child molestation with this israeli sort of social media guru dude. what do we know what that meeting was all about? >> what is interesting is i didn't get around to asking him. he volunteered that it was about iran policy thinking that that would be some sort of good answer. that makes everything much worse for him because that's a pretty consequential issue. why is steven miller ask donald trump junior were experts on the middle east national secuity having a private meeting with the saudi governments, george natr and this expert that runs this if i recall and erik prince a former company guy. it's a weird group of people talking about iran and we know the trump administration is very, very hawkish on iran. we know the saudis have wanted a conflict with iran for a long time and here is what is interesting, we talk about collusion with russia a

planning to send a second wave of document requests to associates of president trump including trump lawyer rudy giuliani and a former lawyer for michael cohen who last year sought a pardon on his client's behalf according to a person familiar with the committee's plans. other individuals likely to be sent requests include rex tillerson and gary cohen, an investment banker. neil, there is going to be no stone left unturned by this congress. so if there is anything that donald trump has been up to, there won't be a place to hide. >> i hope that's right because for two years congress sat on its hands and did nothing to investigate trump and, you know, this is someone who has repeatedly denied federal law just, you know, one example that gary cohen questionnaire that the judiciary commit tee is sending. gary cohen complained about the fact that president trump tried to block the time warner merger with at&t because he was so upset by the coverage on the rival network on cnn. that is a blatant abuse of power. again, it might not be criminal, but it is exactly the kind of thing our founde

i see the same thing about donald trump and trump supporters. and the democrats are in a tough spot condemning her as much as they should and taking action the way they should because they're pressured by the fact that you have what are considered rock star freshmen coming in. she's one of the first muslim women ever elected to congress. she's on the cover of "rolling stone" magazine with nancy pelosi. the old guard democrats are trying to balance out this progressive new wing coming in without upsetting that part of the base. but enough is enough. how many times does this woman have to say things that are anti-semitic before she pays a real consequence? i'm tired of the apologies over and over and then she turns around and does it again and doubles down on it and doesn't take responsibility, and then engages in whataboutism. if you're going to condemn donald trump and his supporters for the things they have said and trafficked in, then you have to do the same thing for omar. and she in my opinion does not deserve a seat on the foreign affairs c

so would -- so would donald trump. regardless, it seems like from at least the barr version of mueller's report that there was no conspiracy here. there was no -- not enough evidence of conspiracy to criminally convict anybody, but what we do have is a presidential candidate, at the very least, standing at a podium in july of 2016 and saying, russia, if you're listening, find the e-mails. >> absolutely. >>ener was a presidential candidate waving around the wikileaks releases and saying "i love wikileaks" and reading off the embarrassing information to his advantage. that stuff all happened very much in the open. then there is a reporting on the don jr. trump tower meeting. we know all of that. what is the message that russia's already gotten. >> absolutely. the message that russia's gotten is that the attorney general of the united states can put out a four-page document about a 400-page report and basically say everything is okay and, russia, you've gotten away with it. i think that putin probably feels pretty good to

trump. "a damaged soul and a disordered personality, whether the worst scenarios come to pass or not is right now unknowable. what we do know is the president is a person who seems to draw energy and purpose from maliciousness and transgressive acts, creating enemity among people, and for attacking the weak, the honorable and even the dead. donald trump is not well. and as long as he's president, our nation is not safe." >> well, look, i don't know how unwell he is, but it is clear from his behavior as phil said over the past three years, not just with john mccain, he cannot seem to let anything go when the slight seems to be to him. he takes this personally. this isn't a fight over what he saw john mccain as doing as bad for the country or improper policy. he went against him. he voted against him on that health care bill. he went against him when he, you know, had deemed to reveal the steele dossier. he went against him -- >> the fbi already had. >> which the fbi already had. and also, it

then there's trump's tax returns. the one he would love to release if only that pesky audit would finally end. >> as i've told you, they're under audit, they have been for a long time. they're extremely complex. nobody would understand them. nobody turns over a return when it's under audit. >> the president really does seem opposed to releasing his tax returns. today "the washington post" reports democrats are seeking ten years of those returns in the coming weeks. trump is clearly feeling besieged. after meeting with the president this morning, senator lindsey graham said trump believes democrats are taking a wrecking ball to his life. at this point after literally thousands of lies, the president's credibility is so thoroughly shot that americans believe a convicted liar more than they believe him. and that means as the investigations continue, the president is going to have a pretty hard time convincing americans that all this is just, and i quote, presidential harassment. joining me now, dan kilde of michigan, a m

so many points of contact between team russia and team trump and the russians like that june 2016 trump tower meeting. are we going to find out the facts behind the meeting? >> we may. to repeat, the content of what these findings are we don't know. the only news today is that port of the investigation is closed and others are going on. no more indictments. that means mueller decided not to, you know, go to the hill, the constitutional hill and go after trump or possibly his family members and there was nothing that mueller wanted to do that the department of justice did not allow him to do. i think that was a key point in barr's findings. nobody should claim defeat or victory. this is the end of one piece and it goes to the sdny and political arena and the big question, which is russia. >> so ranado, how about the president crafting the misleading statement about the me meeting? he said it was primarily about adoptions, remember? is that going to be part of the report? >> i do. without a doubt. mueller asked for documents and talked to witnesses about those issues. i would be surprised

that vodka business was sort of like trump university or trump airlines or trump steaks or many trump iscasinos. all of them went out of business. the thing that was being sold wasn't real or fraudulent, it didn't last. if the details in the business matters and the cam campaign activities, the question is how does that affect the facts that americans care about and donald trump's ongoing salesmanship of the most important product, himself. i'm joined with a special panel right here. good to have all of you here. >> thank you. >> is salesmanship and when it runs out. >> that's been the question from the beginning. you kind of keep waiting for that 46%, now it's more like 40%, to realize the emperor has no clothes. i'm not sure it never will with the majority of that minority. >> the majority of the minority is still a minority, right? >> it's also a minority. donald trump's product right now is liberalteers. it's the first thing he sold that's legitimate. he makes people who see his presidency as a desecration. he makes us suffer every day. i feel like that's what a lot of his followe

a trump lie so big the trump family and their lawyer appear to be in on it. a national security threat so dyer, two of the most senior west wing advisers warned against it and the new hallmark of a trump scandal, contemporaneous memos chronicling the transgression. in this case the story involved the president's son-in-law jared kushner and his pursuit of a security clearance. turns out there was never an all-clear given to jared, there was never a decision jared kushner could be trusted with the nation's most sensitive secrets. from "the new york times" scoop -- quote, president trump ordered his chief of staff to grant his son-in-law and adviser top seek relate security clearance last year, overruling intelligence flags by officials and white house's top lawyer. four people briefed on the matter said trump's decision in may so troubled senior administration officials that at least one, the white house chief of staff at the time, john kelly, wrote a contemporaneous internal memo about how he had been, quote, ordered to give kushner the top secret clearance.

michael cohen and donald trump have reputations for being liars. i mean, trump, in particular. "the washington post" reported he lied or said misleading statements around 8,000 times. michael cohen admitted he lied to congress before. so, both of them have real credibility issues. the issue for cohen is he directly said to congress, no, i did not seek a pardon and i wouldn't have accepted it. then, his attorney recently stated they were sort of, inquiring about a pardon. so, there's questions about whether in the late spring of 2018 michael cohen's team might have been asking about a pardon. i think the way his legal team is going to spin this is, michael cohen will refute he directly asked trump for a pardon, what trump stated and will say that he was possibly inquiring about a pardon before he decided to flip. so, that's the way he will spin it. trump, himself, is talking about a pardon issue. this is another thing that is going to be investigated. there are people that are concerned that trump would be dangling pardons for people in exchange for their silence. >> it does ope

>> it's absolutely donald trump. i remember when he flipped, somebody said he used to carry the president's phone. so he knows exactly what the president was daing during this whole time period. there are still rolls in court documents that we don't know who played that role. for example who is the one directed to get roger stone to reach out to wikileaks? stone himself said that was probably rick gates. so that ties stone right next to trump and that witness would know who ordered him to tell stone to go reach out to wikileaks. that's one example but there are going to be tons for gates. >> and lastly i wonder if there's a sense you have that even if some of these guys are helping and cooperating, they still did a lot of bad stuff. it seems most of the people have gotten pretty light sentences. >> that's not a misunderstanding. but the ones that have very, very helpful inside knowledge, they're going to get a lot of credit for full forthcoming cooperation as opposed to limited cooperation that we've seen with some o

a fitting end for president trump. he handed congressional democrats a map of alleged corruption and investigations that cohen suggests lead back to trump tower. he is also saying his committee wants interviews with family members such as donald trump jr. and ivanka trump. cohen will return to share more of what he knows. we haven't even mentioned the president's failed summit in north korea or the comments he made defending kim jong un on the torture. cnn reports for us now this has been the story of donald and the terrible horrible no good very bad week. democrats are furious and threatening to subpoena documents from the white house after reports that president donald trump overruled his intelligence community and demanded a top secret security clearance for his son-in-law. >> after many denials of the president himself and the white house we learned -- actually the president did order his chief of staff, general kelly, to provide a security clearance for a son-in-law. i would love to see mr. kelly come before our c

trump is doing the opposite. he's becoming best friends with our enemies and leaving our allies out to dry. >> we're going to get news this morning about more democrats possibly jumping into the race to run for president. your name has been mentioned. are you considering running in 2020? >> i am. i'm seriously looking at it. the first time that i really felt betrayed, abandoned by washington, really saw the consequences is when i was in iraq. as i've trfd the country, helpings they mazing people people, our economy is changing faster than it ever changed before. people are losing their jobs, not to immigrants but to robots. they're being automated out of existence and washington isn't doing anything to help. i don't think washington even understand these challenges. so we can do this, we wee can federal government this but it going to take someone who cannot own beat donald trump but with can and i thought the best way could i serve the country in 2002 was to join the marines. the best way i could serve in 2014 w

trump has treated kim like equal as a world leader something you never had before so i think trump is strategy is to treat him like a world leader that's trump's took the first step north korea has to deliver has to get rid of its nuclear weapons. has stopped testing. good yeah so yeah you can also said that he took the first step you know sitting on indefinitely. in this is deployed. to deal with a cold it. is you know like a friends like but it seems that north korea was the want to. see the. realistic step from the united states government. is always a very unstable. in the korean. changed their policy. changed so that's why it is a problem. thank you for being here. that's all good. venezuela's broken health system. people who are seriously ill can't get medicine. doctors often go unpaid. people try to help each other but their efforts fall short. that israel began its major humanitarian crisis. in fifteen minutes. raring to me. not everyone who loves books has to go insane. d.w. literature list which must reads. i'm not laughing at the job well enough sometimes i am but i stand u

trump and. walk away from their summit in vietnam so what went wrong and where does it leave did nuclear threat from north korea this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program i'm hard on that hamid sometimes you have to walk this was how u.s. president donald trump described a sudden end to his summit with north korea's leader kim jong un the pair rived in vietnam with hopes of building on last year's historic summit in singapore but less than two days later they signed no agreement and there's some clear when they'll talk again north korea's neighbors south korea and china both said they were disappointed with the outcome we'll bring in our panel in just a moment but first when hey reports from hanoi. before the summit us president donald trump tried to lower expectations of a deal with north korean leader kim jong il but the expectation was at the very least that the pair would sign some form of agreement on denuclearization or make a joint statement instead the talks were cut short b

and donald trump junior. if we're getting into new york investigations, what does that mean for them? >> that could be very bad for them. that's one reason why people think the president is to easy because his kids could be implicated. he no longer cares about michael cohen but he said i have this huge pile of rocks. there's a lot of dirt under it. republicans said we don't want to look under those rocks, democrats said we don't trust you. we want to look every under rock. appears the investigators in new york and new jersey and other states looking into trump and his businesses and inaugural committee, they want to look under all the rocks too. that's very problematic for the president. >> who would have ever thought, maybe as new yorkers we appreciate this but does anything sound more serious now than southern district of new york. sometimes you feel like -- >> i guess manhattan d.a. >> right. seriously. >> both. >> robert mueller and the southern district, sometimes you're allowed to think the system might

in the trump organization. i know before his public testimony he spent time digging through boxes in a storage unit to find documents that backed up some of his claims and he spent this past weekend before he went back to capitol hill yesterdaydoiyesterdayd yesterday doing some more document diving about communications he's had with various members of the administration and the kinds of changes they wanted to see made. >> you know, emily, this has been quite a personal journey for michael cohen, who has felt betrayed by donald trump and the entire trump family, felt betrayed that rudy giuliani could go from saying he was a great lawyer to one of the biggest liars ever. to those republican members of congress all calling him a liar, how can we believe a liar? that's all we heard? how can we believe you, michael cohen, you're a lawyer. i wonder what michael cohen thinks of this poll and what republicans think of of this poll when asked who do you believe more, michael cohen or donald trump? donald trump at 35%, m

trump's tax returns. republicans attack cohen. >> you lied. >> he lies. >> you are a liar. >> liar, liar, pants on fire. >> and president trump tells a conservative conference what he thinks of all of the investigators. >> and all of a sudden they're trying to take you out with bull [ bleep ]. >> i'll talk to the vice chairman of the senate intelligence committee, democrat mark warner and jim jordan. plus democrats and activists are arguing over impeaching the president. >> impeachment of this corrupt and lawless president is the first step. >> impeachment is a divisive issue in our country and let us see what the facts are. >> debating purity tests for democratic members of congress and disagreeing over what's more important to them in 2020. a candidate who shares their views or one who simply can beat president trump. and finally, no deal. the president walks away without an agreement with kim jong-un on nukes and sanctions. >> sometimes you have to walk and this was just one of those times. >> so what

does trump world, trump administration, trump himself have a lot to worry about that i think have gone pretty far at unraveling what really happened in 2016? yes. president trump has a lot to worry about. >> anyone think he does not? >> he certainly does. it is a matter of that. giuliani will be handing out cigars when it is transmitted. we are not going to know. the biggest question -- >> and they did that over the spin, right? >> the biggest question is what the attorney general does. i think it will be historic. we look back and see what department of justice guidelines are giuliani may be smoking those cigars but he will have to wait to see if those will be good or not. >> i don't know what he has been smoking for the past -- you say if the report is good whatever the report is he will say it is good. he is found with a knife over a dead body says i didn't do it. they will say that same line witch hunt, it doesn't matter what mueller says. whether it is actually damaging democrats briefing and it could be bad for them. we know no matter what it says it is the same it has been for t

trump is a larger than ife character. people are focused on what he's doing for them. i think people would be legitimately concerned if he did, in fact, his campaign, worked with the russians. i'll say this, if mr. barr had reached a different conclusion and he reported that there is evidence of trump coordination with the russians, i would have believed it, i would have listened to the president, but that would have been a bad day for the country. i'll end with this and take a couple more questions. to those wanting an outcome of removing trump, you got to be isappointed. to those who wanted somebody to look at trump without interference, you got to be pleased. to those who are happy that your president has been cleared of working with a foreign power, i think you are a good merican. reporter: to clarify. when you say you want barr in front of the committee. public hearing? senator graham: as public as ossible. reporter: when you say see you soon, james comey, does that mean you'll call him before the committee before a

this is who donald trump is. i remember after he won the presidency, there was lots of talk about pivoting and being more presidential. no. that didn't happen. this is an obsession he has with john mccain because john mccain didn't like him and didn't do what he thought he ought to do. it is full of grievance. the man has passed away. it's just beyond bad taste. i'm not quite sure how to react to it other than to say, really? you are the president of the united states and you are talking about a war hero, although he never admitted he was a war hero, in ways like this saying he never thanked me? well, he was -- >> for the funeral. >> he was in the grave, number one. number two, this is what was expected. maybe he did the airplane or the service or the lying in state or whatever. he got applauded at the time if you recall, donald trump that is, for doing right thing. now he is saying, well, never mind, i never got thanked. >> last week, the president tweeted there shouldn't be a mueller report. it's the greatest w

trump let shine know he wasn't happy. according to gabe sherman, one theory of bill shine's exit is, quote, that trump pushed shine out now because house democrats are looking to investigate the house's ties to fox. tensions were likely especially high this week after "the new yorker's" jane mayer rocked the white house with her deeply reported piece on the close ties between the fox -- between fox news and the white house. mayer wrote that as a fox news executive, several lawsuits named bill shine as complicit in a workplace culture of cover-ups, payoffs and victim intimidation. and politico is reporting tonight that trump had complained to allies about shine being tangled up in those lawsuits. past trump staffers are also coming back to haunt the president. his former campaign chairman is a convicted felon, and today the president actually says he feels bad for paul manafort. >> i feel very badly for paul manafort. i think it's been a very, very tough time for him. >> the president of the united states says he feels bad

>> yes, and you'd find it at the trump org. >> now, the trump organization have received many documents and requests from multiple committees on the hill and they have not responded to those document requests. but michael cohen right there putting members of the trump organization in the spotlight. he's expected to be questioned further on the various individuals at the trump organization when he's testifying today in a much more intense environment following the release of the democrats request for documents and letters of those 81 individuals and entities. alisyn. >> kara, thank you very much for that preview. joining us now is jennifer rogers, a former federal prosecutor. jennifer, great to have you here. so michael cohen's public testimony opened a can of worms. are you drawing a direct line between what we call watched a week ago today and all of these new requests for documents and new investigations? >> absolutely. you know, you can see it as a roadmap. he's laying out who to talk to, what to get. and the congress members were really latching on to that and they are now following

you outperformed donald trump with african-americans. you outperformed donald trump with women. you outperformed donald trump... >> with hispanics. >> ...with independents, with hispanics, and with millennials. >> yeah, that's why i thought i had a chance to be president. >> you -- that earlier chris christie was a model for a future republican party -- a blue-state republican governor who had this way of working across the aisle and being pragmatic. >> yeah. >> right? you outperformed donald trump in every single one of these categories. you cannot deny that trump has been bad for the gop brand. >> listen, what he's been is limiting. he's been limiting for it, and limiting it is bad. i mean, listen, i believe in a different way of approaching these things, and i campaigned that way. i didn't win. >> you have a lot to say about jared in this book. how do you think jared handled the shutdown? >> well, i don't know what he did in it. i only know what i read from accounts. >> he was the chief negotiator, apparently, based on those accounts. >> yeah, and if those accounts are right,

trump in recent years. the bank is already the subject of two congressional investigations as we just heard from katie porter, the financial services committee is looking at deutsch bank and the house intelligence committee is investigating deutsch bank. after this break, we will be joined by experts on this story. david k. johnston, he is a pulitzer prize winning tax attorney of the "new york times," and he's written articles for the trump businesses. david heimrich is the reporter of the "new york times." this is the person we want to hear from about this trump business. we will be right back with them. >> a major story broke late last night. >> we begin with new data this morning. >> we begin with new das morning. guys do whatever it takes to deal with shave irritation. so, we re-imagined the razor with the new gillette skinguard. it has a unique guard between the blades. that's designed to reduce irritation during the shave. because we believe all men deserve a razor just for them. the best a man can ge

and trump himself. she told "the washington post" this man is not worthy of the office he hold and you see she says let's focus on the voters. what have we heard on capitol hill in terms of nancy pelosi's comments? but more importantly, the impeachment word, isn't it being used more by republicans? isn't this a great power play in terms of them trying to push the shrill part of the left forward? nancy pelosi is pulling everything back, literally all the chips. >> i think that's exactly right. republicans have been talking about it far more than democrats have. you saw a brief burst of a few prominent democrats, joaquw joa castro and others. i think there's a really important point that needs to be made here. while most of the media attention, actually there are a lot of collected in trump districts and they're quite moderate. i was on fobs on union sunday and in the green hill is and nancy pelosi is trying to bring her caucus back on track. last week was the big unveiling of hh-1, the debate was fueled

and that trump turned him down. gloria borger is cnn political analyst, carrie cordaro. carrie, now that trump is weighing in on cohen's statements about this pardon idea, did he just give democrats and mueller an easier pass to force trump's testimony? >> i don't know that they will be calling the president to testify, but it certainly indicates that the president once again is willing to use his public forum to say things that most likely is not true. michael cohen said under oath when he appeared before congress correcting prior information that he had provided, so this most recent testimony by michael cohen was his opportunity to tell the truth. he understood the consequences of it and he said he didn't ask for a pardon and he used pretty precise language as far as him asking for a pardon. the president is saying the opposite and the public will have to determine which one they believe. i don't think that we'll see the president called before congress to testify nor will at this point does it seem likely that th

never had before so i think trump is strategy is to treat him like a world leader that's that's trumps took the first step. nuke north korea has to deliver has to get rid of its nuclear weapons out from my face into a steak point of view to look at this -- came has stopped nuclear testing for like a little just good yeah subtlety months yeah you can also said that he took the first step. helplessly on definitely -- isn't from celebrity right in this is a pretty conservative permanently to deal with a cold- the chairman came as is on like a friends like -- but it seems the north korea was the one with his this is the first novelization [inaudible] however whenever the region changed their policy in most grandpas is only for some change always change so that's why there's a some problems. building trust trust trust. relationship. and i'm not going to break you off to go to the end of the program thank you all three for being in our country today great stuff really fascinating discussion. trump and kim what makes a spin off topic this week. thanks for joining us bye bye interest [tuning k

do you now look at the way the trump campaign was operating, your role in it and, indeed, donald trump then walking away from you and denying that he even knew who you were and tweeting things like "few people knew that young low—level volunteer named george who has already proven to be a liar" — do you look back on all of that and feel that you have been utterly let down by trump and his closest associates? quite frankly, the way my sentencing memorandum was written and crafted and was designed, if i was the president, i would have done the exact same thing. in this memo, there were names such as the niece of vladimir putin hacked emails, mysterious professors, diplomats. so, the way it was written, i would have certainly probably distanced myself the way he did. 0n the other hand, as evidence has been growing and is released and testimonies have been given by not only me, but senior members of the department ofjustice under the 0bama administration, you also now have trump allies, such as congressman mark meadows, congressman devin nunes, others in the administration and the medi
