Moore and steve bannon, a man described this way by peter king. This guy does not belong on the national stage. He looks like a disheveled drunk. A lot of lessons there for anybody who thought President Trump had rewritten the rules of american politics. His election may have been more about the man than the movement. A movement that may turn out to be not so much grassroots as astroturf. Smoke and mirrors. May no attention to the man behind the curtain. Turns out voters, even in the republican stronghold like alabama, are not in lock step with this president. His Approval Rating, just 48 there, in a state that he carried by almost 28 points just a year ago. Turns out that the man who as a candidate who famously said this. I could stand in the middle of 5th avenue and shoot somebody and i wouldnt lose any voters. That man cant stand on the border of florida and alabama and swing an election. The laws of the political universe, still apply. And betting on voters who swept donald trump into office was a bad bet for roy moore. But theres more to all of this. The group of voters who may be the key to doug jones victory in alabama, africanamerican women. A stunning 98 of black women, who voted in this election, cast their ballot for jones. President barack obama only got 95 in 2012. The gender gap overall worked in favor of jones. Women voting for the democrat with the margin of 5741 . Young voters also favored jones. Voters abled 1844 went for jones 6138 . But what does this mean for the president and his agenda . If alabama is any indication, President Trump and his party may be on a long, rocky road. Lets discuss now with my panel. Thank you all for joining us. Good evening. Post election eve, right . Bob, President Trump trying to turn the page after suffering a humiliating loss. He is zero for 2 in alabama. Heres the president today. A lot of republicans feel differently. Theyre very happy with the way it turned out. But i would have as the leader of the party, i would have liked to have had the seat. I want to endorse the people that are running. So President Trump went allin for roy moore. Is the president weaker today than he was yesterday, bob . I think he is, don. I mean, he backed strange in the primary, lost it. This is a state he won bigtime. And then, of course, doug jones won. This is one of the most stunning elections that were going to see in our lifetime. The situations where some republicans were rooting for a democrat, i think like mitch mcconnell, were never going to see that again. I think this hurts his agenda in one big way. Obamacare replacement legislation. They almost got it through the senate. They didnt. And doug jones is going to be around next year. I think obamacare, the law, its been very resilient. Its been criticized repeatedly, its been legally challenged, i think obamacare is going to be around for a while. Bob, even with the mandate and the tax . Administratively and the tax bill, they can chip away at it. But actually replacing it on a big level. But they wanted to do that earlier this summer, no chance. April, lets move on. Roy moore, he really had a laundry list of problems. He was a flawed candidate. But this loss was in alabama, where you should be able to run anyone with an r in front of their name. The president is trying to minimize the defeat, but what does this say about his political strength, do you think . The president s political strength was i guess you would saliy it leaned on steve bannon. And steve bannon was somewhat of a crutch here. And i guess that crutch is broken. Because the president is weakened. This was not a good moment for the president. Alabama, the reddest of red states, blood red, bright red. And they did not win the state. And the president , you know, supported someone es, yes. But he ultimately fell in line with steve bannon who thought he was a king maker. Its really interesting, and i thought about what you just said at the beginning, you were talking about numbers. I just think how women voted for the other candidate, for doug jones. And i think about how the president had 51 of white women in his corner, particularly those who married white women. 51 of married white women voted for the president. And look how women voted overwhelmingly for the democrat. And im thinking about those women who voted for the president. They voted for their husbands intere interests, according to gloria steinham. But now, look what happened in alabama, which still has high numbers of popularity for the president. They went in the opposite direction. This is a moment that is going to be a marker for this president. A huge marker. I want to ask you, david, because i said pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. That was a reference to the wizard of oz and steve bannon, when they finally go behind the curtain and they see its not a god back there, its just this one guy with a mega phone or a microphone, a green screen and some levers. Have people been putting too much faith saying that steve bannon is this svengali when maybe he isnt . Don, i dont think bannon is going anywhere. He will regroup and try to make his mark in 2018 in an assortment of races around the country. Yes, last night in alabama, he was repudiated and his approach of trying to up end the Republican Party and the political system was suffered a setback, because by not going with the establishment candidate, luther strange, republicans coughed up a seat to democrats in the reddest of red states. Politics is a game ultimately of addition, not subtraction. Its a cliche, but its true. If you have both houses of congress and the white house as republicans do, and youre trying to march forward with an agenda piece by piece, regardless of what people think of that agenda, what you want to do is build seats, not turn over the wheel barrel and try and destroy the establishment. Youre trying to march forward to a goal. And bannon, with this weird brew, its not conservatism, its this hodgepodge of statism, protectionism, nationalism, even though he went to harvard and worked for goldman sachs, and whatever hes trying to sell. Its not as easy as he thought it was. Bob, i thought it was very interesting. Ari fleischer tweeted this, he was the white house spokesperson under president bush. He said, establishment candidate ed gillespie lost, roy moore lost. The lesson, a base only potus isnt enough to win. Potus needs to increase his Approval Rating or democrat turnout will kill republicans in 2018. How many times have political commentators said the exact same thing but yet this administration and this president doesnt seem to listen . He keeps going back to the base, because he needs those cheerleaders, and that ego boost . Well, i mean, we do have to think also that they havent gotten much done legislatively. They dont have a big bill win. They didnt get health care done. They havent gotten transportation done. I think theyre going to get this tax cut done, but is that going to get him to 50 . No. I think the white house has to think lets get to 50 . On bannon, how is he going to raise money after this massive loss . I think a lot of republican incumbents who are up for reelection who are nervous about bannon a couple of days ago, theyre not so nervous anymore, because bannon is going to have a fundraising issue. Do you want, bob, do you want the president campaigning with you in 2018 . I think you want him in primaries. Im not so sure in the general. Barbara comstock, who lives out by me in virginia, shes going to have trump in her district, because trump is unpopular. I think it depends on the situation. But in primaries that are upcoming in the early part of the year, you probably want trump. General election, not so much. April, what do you think . Do you think that republican candidates in 2018, do you think theyre going to be energized will that energize the democrats if the president is campaigning with them . Of course it will energize democrats. But im thinking of republicans. 2018 is right here. You have to think about this. It all depends on the time and whats going on. If things continue to steadily go in a downward path, i dont believe youre going to get many people wanting the president. But of course, youre going to have those areas that are solid trump areas, that there may be a cll for him. But i dont believe, if this president continues to go down this path, and if he does not have the legislative win, a legislative win that hes hoping for, people may take a Second Thought and really rethink bringing him on the campaign trail. Lets talk about his Approval Rating, david. Job Approval Rating, 32 , according to a Monmouth University poll. By the way, president george bush didnt hit numbers like this until during the iraq war. How do numbers like that impact the president s deal making abilities, to aprils point just a second ago . Exactly. 32 , the highest number you see out there is the gallop daily at 36 , but thats the most. So what you have with alabama last night, with the repudiation by the alabama voters, even though it was fairly narrow and roy moore was a terrible candidate, and with this approval numbers stuck in the mid to low 30s, you have republican candidates next year, like bob and april said, and republicans who can make their own decision whether theyre going along with the president in a primary or on a given issue. They may go with him in some cases, but they dont have to be afraid of bucking the president. Is that a serious consideration right now, david . Do you think people are wondering oh, boy, what do we do . Do you think candidates are really thinking about should they go along with this president s agenda . Should they sign on with this . I agree with bob. They may want him in a primary, and maybe not in a general. But the point is, with the president this week, with his coat tails so short, they can make their own decision. They dont have to live in fear of going, you know, crossways or sideways with the president. They can make their decision based on what they think the demographics of their district and the issues that are near and dear to their district matters, not so much staying right on track with President Trump. Because President Trump has wounded himself over the last year. Hes and they know it, voters know it, the white house knows it. Selfinflicted. Thank you david, thank you, bob. April, stick around. When we come back, i want to talk about how black voters, especially black women, made the difference in the stunning doug jones election win. Well be right back.

Democrat doug jones stunning victory in alabama last night shocked some seasoned political observers, and his overwhelming support from black voters, especially black women, may have been the key. April ryan is back with me. Good evening, everyone. Thank you so much. Its been an interesting 24 hours to say the least. Angela, last night during a special election in december, africanamerican voters eclipsed that and made up 29 of all voters, and then jones won by 96 to 4 . In 2012 on election day, black voters comprised 28 of the total alabama electorate and went 95 to 4 for then president barack obama. Is this a wakeup call for democrats . What do you think . I think its major. One of the things that i havent heard talked about too much is just a moment to give credit where credit is due. There is an amazing member of congress in alabama who worked her behind off for doug jones, and thats congresswoman terry sewell. She has an amazing work and has done yomans work in trying to protect alabama citizens Voting Rights. Shes been pushing the Voting Rights since last congress, and in 2013 when the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights act of 1965, making it harder for states like alabama. What happened yesterday is black people worked in this space that they do best, and thats in resilience. In spite of the fact that there were licensing places, clothing in their area so they wouldnt have the proper i. D. To vote, they worked in spite of. People need to be commended for that. I dont think democrats can take credit for that, i think black people can. I think a lot of the people who went down there and this turn out the vote effort by africanamerican and many prominent africanamericans, it was below the radar, because they didnt want to look like they were outsiders coming in to tell people what to do. So it was kind of a surprise to many, obviously. And i dont think it was a surprise. I think that what you saw is, whether it was cory booker or Barack Obamas robocalls, its folks again rising to the occasion. Not waiting on the Democratic Party to give specific instructions. Not waiting on Doug Jones Campaign to give instructions, but knowing we have to do what weve got to do. Put this into perspective for us, april. As a reporter who happens to be a woman of color, black women were 17 of the electorate yesterday and voted for jones 98 to 2 . Right. Well, when you hook at the community, africanamerican women, we are becoming the highest we are increasing in number as the head of household, as the sole provider. When you have people like roy moore talking the way hes talking, the stakes are at the highest they can be. And you have to go out and fight back. And the way they fought back was through their vote. You know, terry sewell really worked hard, and you had people come in like cory booker, who is a rock star of the party, whose mother has roots in alabama, who came in. They wanted to reach each one. I remember talking to terry over the weekend, and she said that we need the africanamerican vote. She said, we dont have the numbers, to put it all the way over the top. But if they had not had that africanamerican vote, and particularly the women as well as the moderate republicans, it would not be doug jones the winner. So when it comes to issues for women, for minority women, the stakes are high, and they know it. We are the ones who go to the polls. We lead the household. We are the Decision Makers a lot of the times in the home. So they wanted to make a decision, and they made the decision through their vote, and its clear, its doug jones. Its frustrating to ive heard over the last 24 hours, to many africanamerican voters, because they feel that especially within the last two or three years. All they heard on television was rural white voters, and working class voters, which now means white voters, what this person says, or the unheard trump voter. When the people who are out now who determine the election since 2016 are voters of color. Theres a frustration there joseph. I think to me, when you look at what were facing right now, we have to give credit to not the Democratic Party, but as angela said, to black people. Ultimately, one thing i havent heard people talk about is the trump effect on the black vote. I think sometimes the Trump Administration acts as if black people cannot see them or hear them. So when you get on the air force one and fly down to pensacola, literally the day before the Civil Rights Museum opening, to campaign for a man who said that the last time this nation was great was during slavery, in a to go to the u. S. Senate on behalf of a state that still celebrates robert e. Lee day in conjunction with Martin Luther king day, i think that is shortsighted. You said that this was a warning shot yesterday across the bow for the gop that people have been warning for years. When you look at the fact, the growth and opportunity project, someone needs to call Reince Priebus and figure out what file he left those documents in. We have been talking about this for years, so when you sit here and act if as calling nfl players kneeling sobs and that doesnt have an effect on black mothers who go to the polls and think thats not the reason why turnout is not going up, thats shortsighted. When you talk about individuals out here in alabama going to the polls in record numbers, and you dont think that you have congressman lewis, who disavowed the president , after he got battered and bruised and bloodied, i think youre being shortsighted. So i think that hopefully, finally, we cant expect the president to change, but the party, you have to start dealing with these issues with communities of color much differently. Well, the person in the white house who was supposed to help with that vote, turning out the black vote, the liaison, fired the day after the stunning loss, or i should say she said she resigned, the night of the stunning loss. Im talking about omarosa. I would say youre fired, but theyre saying she resigned. Well talk about that when we come back. Hows it going down there . Thats good. Lica misses you.

One of the president s most vocal and controversial supporters, the former apprentice contestant only r , omarosa, out at the white house. So april today, she resigned to pursue other opportunities. The president tweeted thanks to her. Everyone is being gracious, but there is reporting by you, also by cbs news that omarosa was fired by john kelly. Why did she have to go . Well, according to my sources, and you know, don, we didnt get too much sleep last night, and after we were doing the roy moore show. But what happened this morning, 6 00 a. M. , im starting to get texts from sources. And it continued from so many different people and so many different sectors who had credible sources. People who were high ranking republicans, to people close to the white house. People who knew her. It was a lot. So what ultimately we found out is that last night, general kelly approached her at one of the White House Christmas parties. He said i need to talk to you. Ultimately, she said, i want to have full access that i did before. I want to have i want to be able to walk into the president s office and go in and out of meetings as i please. And i also want to be able to just to do my own thing. He said look, he told her this is part of the problem, that i understand that youre in the president s ear. Shes been calling and trying to influence the president , going around his boundaries and his parameters. So then she said well, if i dont get what i want, there will be hell to pay. He said okay, theres hell. Thats what started it off. This all happened last night. Last night. Okay. There are reports from you and from other news organizations that she was escorted off the property, that they took her security clearance. The secret service is tweeting saying the secret service was not involved in the termination process, or the escort off the complex, which seems to me if you say looks like they are confirming, because they are saying they were not involved. But who escorted her off . Our only involvement was to deactivate the individuals pass, which grants access to the complex. So this gives us more information about what happened here. Do you think . Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, and i tried to get her to confirm it early this morning. When i emailed her, they ran to ap and the huffing toast po ing. I said okay, you say she resigned, but it was a negotiat negotiated resignation, but he was terminated. She was supposed to leave on january 20th. The secret service deactivated her pass where she cant get in. Is she being paid out to the 20th or what . Im glad you said that. Okay. So let me get this up. This is a statement from a former Administration Official who said this, people have long been unsure of what she did at the white house, and what value she brought. Many of her colleagues are elated. What was her role at the white house, joseph . I think that its unfortunate that things transpired in this way. I think that, again, when we just talk about africanamerican turnout through the roof in alabama last night, and then you literally, while youre losing that election, turning the probably the most visible africanamerican figure you have in that administration out the door. Joseph, part of her job was to get black turn out to vote for the republican candidate or for the president s agenda and she didnt accomplish that. You dont think thats fireable . I think meetings are not accessed. As much as its well documented that theres been a little friction between omarosa and a lot of people, if there is no perceived credibility at the administration to say that these meetings will turn into actual results for the people, and it doesnt matter who you have in that job, its going to be almost impossible for people to take that person seriously. What about omarosas perceived credibility, angela, does she have any . I dont believe she had any credibility. Here is the tough part. If shes the most visible person that africanamericans are to rely on in this administration, tell me why she was sitting in eeob instead of the west wing . Tell me why she didnt have an office there . If you are going to tell me that she was the highest ranking she certainly was paid well. But if youre going to tell me that, tell me why she wasnt able to influence any policy to ensure that black people, communities of color and low income communities were taken care of, whether were talking about health care or tax reform. We werent protected. She even had hbcu you tell me why you think this president fought t thought the hbcu was unconstitutional. Tell me what was she doing that was helpful to us. Lets be honest, she had a what, don . You just stopped black people didnt like only ros omarosa. She was a former apprentice contestant. If you are going to hire someone part of her main job was outreach to africanamericans and she had no credibility, why on earth would you do that . I think also to defend everything is to be credible. Thats the Biggest Issue we have here. To me, its less about being able to talk about the deficiencies of omarosa as far as her influence in the Africanamerican Community and talk about the deficiencies of this administration to have a credible interest in what is occurring in africanamerican communities. Let me say this. It is important to talk about these efficiencies of this person who was in this position, when you have a president who is taking the issue, or taking a knee and making it about the flag and soldiers versus the issue of Police Involved shootings. Also the issue of charleston. She is supposed to be the voice of reason for the black community. The liaison between the black community and the president. And the tension between this administration and the black community is at its height, and she is there to be his liaison. This is i think thats the whole point. So ultimately on some level, omarosa is irrelevant. That person was also supposed to go on the hill and work with the congressional black caucus. She was picking fights with cedric richmond, the head of the congressional black caucus. She was calling herself the honorable and i dont know who taught her that. Shes so irrelevant, she doesnt even know how to address a letter. You talk about irrelevant. Shes sitting on the outskirts in the eeob, in a separate building. Theres a separate building. Thats why she was seated. Hold on, joseph, one more thing, the last thing i have. If she was supposed to help black people, tell me why she was boobooing on people in the administration in the white house, folks she was shutting the door on, black people. Aint but a couple of them. She was going out of her way to make it difficult for these folks to do their job. Im not supportive of the Trump Administration, but i definitely dont support someone who will work to close doors on people trying to be successful. Thats the last word. Ive got to go. But shes gone now. So there you go. Thank you, everyone. When we come back, Rod Rosenstein testifying in front of the house judiciary today. Well tell you what the Deputy Attorney general is saying about Robert Mueller and whether he should be fired. vo the best gifts come with a special box. Purchase 999 or more at helzberg diamonds and get an xbox one s, with 3 months of Xbox Game Pass and xbox live gold. At helzberg diamonds. While supplies last. And i am a senior Public Safety my namspecialist for pg e. My job is to help educate our First Responders on how to deal with natural gas and electric emergencies. Everyday when we go to work we want everyone to work safely and come home safely. I live right here in auburn, i absolutely love this community. Once i moved here i didnt want to live anywhere else. I love that people in this community are willing to come together to make a difference for other peoples lives. Together, were building a better california. The Deputy Attorney Rod Rosenstein flat out telling a House Committee today that he had seen no reason to fire Robert Mueller. Here to discuss, steve hall, retired chief of cia russian operations, he joins us via skype. Also joining us, Susan Hennessy and jared graph author of inside Robert Muellers fbi and the war on global terror. Good evening, all. Susan, the Deputy Attorney general appeared before the house to defend Robert Mueller and his investigation against claims of political bias. He said that mueller should not be removed from the investigation. How good was his defense of mueller today . I thought he gave a robust, appropriate defense of mueller, both the integrity of the investigation and mueller as an individual. And he stopped short in some places as sort of a full defense of the fbi at large. He was given the opportunity to express confidence in fbi director christopher wray. He did that but punted on the chance to express confidence in general counsel james baker. You know, so a little bit of a moderated approach. Obviously hes trying to play it pretty careful in front of congress. But i think the message is unambiguous. Rod rosenstein, the individual responsible for hiring mueller, sees no reason to do so. Hes satisfied he said mueller was the Perfect Choice for running the investigation. Do you agree with that . Yeah. Look, its hard to imagine who else might have been able to serve in this role. So considering sort of the arc of muellers career, this is an individual who was george w. Bushs fbi director. He was so popular and respected in the bureau and on capitol hill, that barack obama actually sought special legislation in order to extend his term past the tenyear term. So this is an individual with strong, bipartisan credibility. A long career in law enforcement, a real sterling reputation for integrity. Hard to imagine a very short list of people that could play this difficult role. So steve, senator joe mansion that asked about the possibility of mueller being fired today, and heres what he had to say. I would hope to think hes safe. If not, pardon the expression, all hell would break loose. There would this is a good m. If youre taking him out, youre not taking him out for good reasons. Do you agree with manchin . I do. And im concerned about what he said about this sort of uprising, because i think if you go back to what the russians are hoping and what the plan is for all of this way back last year when this whole thing started, was to cause this divisiveness and this poe harizatilarizationr democracy. As long as our politicians continue to rise to the bait that russia set out for them and make this a serious political issue, were sort of giving easy wins. It reminds me of the developing countries that i served in where the important part of the political system was not getting to the truth but this blind belief in your president or your party leaders. Weve got to recognize that this is not a republican or democrat thing, its an american thing. And i didnt see a lot of that american piece, except from r e rosenstein himself today. Heres what rosenstein had to say. We recognize we have employees with political opinions and its our responsibility to make sure that those opinions do not influence their actions. Pardon me. And so i believe that director mueller understands that, and that hes running that office appropriately. Recognizing that people have political views, but ensuring that those views are not in any way a factor in how they conduct themselves in office. So do you think his words today could have been a message to republicans and maybe the president himself . Well, i think what you saw Rod Rosenstein try to make was a defense of the institutions and the systems and the processes that we have in place, which is absolutely correct for him to do, which is, you know, its not that humans dont have opinions. Its not that humans dont express opinions. But we have a system and a process that ensures with checks and balances that those opinions do not influence the outcome. And this is something that bob mueller has been remarkably attentive to throughout his career, when he was fbi drector, the special agent in charge of the new Orleans Field Office at one point made an offhand comment one morning in the media that he might consider some day entering politics. And mueller removed him from office by lunchtime that day, before even the Justice Department could call mueller and ask what was going on. Everyone, stay with me. When we come back, Rod Rosenstein, not the only one in the hotseat today. Donald trump, jr. , in front of the Senate Intelligence committee for about nine hours. And it wasnt even the first day on the hill. I want you all to weigh in when we come back. Well be right back right after this. Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow.

Theres so much that we need to share so send a smile and show that you care ill give a little bit of my love to you the president s son on the congressional hot seat today. Back with me susan hall, darrell hennessy. So donald trump jr. Was in front of the Senate Committee for moksly nine hours today. Why do you think they brought him back and what more do they want to know from him . Its certainly a long day. Not all that surprising that they have a lot of questions for don junior. When you think about it, don jr. Is not only at the center of a lot of different issues related to the russia investigation, right, hes the individual who organized the sort of Infamous Trump tower meeting. You know, sent the email, if its what you say it is, i love it. Hes also the head of his fathers business. Trump is still not divested from the trump organization. Certainly the committee will be look ing into questions about potential financial conflicts of interest and donald trump jr. Has also dabbled in some russianrelated policy issues. During the campaign he gave a speech for a russian think tank in europe on a syria policy an issue which i dont think don junior is an expert on, for which he was paid up to 50,000 reportedly. There is a huge range of questions and issues that this committee is going to want to get into. Not surprising that they would bring him back and not surprising they would take that full nine hours to walk down every possible path here. Youre not surprised that they brought him back for questioning by various investigations . No, i dont think its surprising that they brought him back. One of the sort of outstanding questions is how sort of outcoming hes being. Earlier last week he declined to answer questions about conversations with his father, somewhat asserting attorneyclient privilege. Not really clear what the grounds for that were. Is he actually being forthcoming with the committees and is he answering the questions theyre asking. Steve, senator mark warner, who is a member of the senate intel committee, said he wants don junior to come back and answer questions from senators themselves. What is the difference from having staffers and senators questioning trump jr. . Well, there is a difference, and i was always surprised when i was working with intelligence oversight committees, congressional committees, at the depth of understanding to the level of detail that the staffers, that the professional staffers actually had. So i know there were questions earlier about are staffers up to this task or shouldnt it be the members . I think the answer is a lot of times the staffers are sort of the members brains on a lot of really detailed issues. So it doesnt surprise me that it would have been senior professional staffers that would have been asked the questions that susan was illuding to. It is important they get in there and have their own questions, but a lot of time staffers provide the research, the background, the depth of understanding that can allow the members to really get you know, weed out the stuff theyre not interested in. In a counterintelligence investigation, in a legal investigation like this, the financial piece of it, it can all be extremely complicated, and sometimes just weeding it out to the three, to the five most important things is something that professional staffers can do and then the members can follow up on that. So it doesnt surprise me that they went for a long time today. Garrett, do you think this will be the last time don junior is called upon to answer questions for lawmakers . I would be shocked if it is. In part because i dont think that any of these investigations are close to wrapping up no matter the president s lawyers repeated assertions that all of this will be over by christmas or the end of the year. You know, i think we are looking at a process on bob muellers special counsel investigation that is likely going to extend at least another year, even if there are not that many additional cases that we see come out of it, and i think that the senate and the house both seem like they have a lot of runway left ahead of them. Does a year seem like a long time to you with an investigation like this, susan . No. I think garrett is right. Were looking at a year from now sort of at a minimum. The other thing to think about whenever youre thinking about the congressional investigations, of course, are different from Robert Muellers investigation. Were just talking about the timeline it would take for them to put together a report. You have to tack on probably six months at a minimum to go through all the declassification hurdles, so this is going to be a very, very long time before there is an actual public congressional report thats been issued. Steve, im wondering what this does to have your kids, you know, your namesake to go and have to answer all these questions. I wonder what that does to donald trump the president and the father. You know, having a kid myself, i mean, its difficult to imagine them sitting in that room for nine hours, really being asked a whole bunch of very detailed, probably very unpleasant questions. Its got to its got to it must take a toll. That said, i agree with what susan said earlier. Donald trump jr. Is a key player and he was made a key player by his father. One of the key things that came up during the rosenstein testimony today was the question as to was there any collusion or has anybody seen any collusion . I think donald trump jr. s comments about yes, im interested in that derogatory information on hillary clinton, you know, if its not collusion in and of itself, it seems to be an intent to try to get there. And, you know, thats a very serious thing, which is why im sure they spent as much time as they did with him today, don. And possibly if there was a divestment of the businesses and there wasnt so much a cross between the business and the campaign, then maybe the kids or don junior wouldnt be in this position as advisers have been saying all along and political analysts. Thank you all, i appreciate when we come back, will President Trump pay a political price in the wake of roy moores defeat. And what about steve bannon and moores defeat . It feels good to be back.
