And ool softeners for comfortable relief of hard stools. Dulcolax, signed for dependable relief donald trump is a loud, n nasty fraud who has never risked anything for anyone and who serves no one but himself. You donald trump, are a total disgrace. You shame yourself and you shame this great country. And we will not allow a small, insecure, thinskinned tyrant or
his allies in the senate to destroy the rule of law in the United States of america. We will not. Wow. Well now, good morning, it is friday, june 10th. Welcome to morning joe. That was something. Brisk. She kept going. Did she really . I became a huge Elizabeth Warren fan last night. She went down and punched him down on the ground. She goes after trump in a way that is a better than its vicious, its genuine. Why do you think its better than other people . It comes from the gut. I think she has a street fighting way that is genuine and real and for the first time, i was looking at her, boy, her and hillary together would be an interesting ticket for the first time. Much in the same way that clinton and gore kind of had it together. I was like, i wouldnt want to
tangle with those two together. John heilemann, are you hearing that . Hillary and Elizabeth Warren is a ticket . I have said three or four months she would be on the very top of the short list. She may not be the Vice President or the running mate but she will be in that three or four people. Just in their meet iing this morning in washington. That would be one of a thousand predictions you get right if that happens. I dont know if shes trying out or it comes from the gut. That comes from her. But those two things are mutually exclusive. It comes from the gut and trying out. You see that in her eyes the vistriol and the passion and th way shes approaching things. One other element that none of the republican candidates running in the primaries against donald trump had, shes
fearless. They feared him. The difference between what we saw yesterday and what we have seen throughout this entire process is you have had republicans afraid to cross donald trump. Even now afraid to cross donald trump after he makes what they call racist comments. They are still afraid to cross him and still afraid to say were going to endorse you any way. Because they still fear donald trump. Fear has been driving this party and its reaction to donald trump since august. She helps with progressives. She helps widen the gender gap. Is and four, shes the historic
kind of if youre going to double down on history not just on the chemistry, but if were going to have a woman president , a Vice President. They actually u work together. They are collaborative. Thats thrown me off. Stop wearing that jacket. Its something my progressive gender, i was one of the first candy stripers work iing in hospitals and were mocking. With us onset we have legendary column iist mike
barnacle. Also managing editor of bloomberg politics, it airs at 6 00 p. M. On msnbc John Heilemann. And we have political analyst and former chairman of the Republican National committee Michael Steele and Political Correspondent casey hunt covering the Clinton Campaign. Lets talk about the collective scar tissue and what impact its had on this race. At least to this point. I think at this point, especially last night when you heard from warren, the president , biden, it was an awful night for the republicans. And i dont say that with glee because i think it sounded like you said it with glee. It kind of sounded like it. Lets get to the news and then well talk about this. But if there was any glee there, its because theres some leaders there including donald
trump who have let america down. Im glad somebody stood up to it. We have talked about the tough week donald trump has had on the campaign and now theres evidence that all of this has taken a toll. The Fox News National poll taken from sunday through wednesday Shows Hillary clinton ahead of trump, 42 to 39 , thats inside the margin of error. But it is a 6point drop for trump since last month. Among independents he still leads clinton 35 to 30 , but hes down 11 points since last month in the key voting group. The poll shows that majorities believe clinton and trump do not have the integrity to serve effectively. 54 saying no for clinton, 58 for trump. But clinton is ahead on the knowledge. 71 saying clinton has it. 38 saying trump does. Wow. On the question of who will shake things up in washington, only 37 for clinton and 76 say
clinton will. 47 say they will vote for their candidate. Lets stop right there. This is all Elizabeth Warren, good for her as well. Lets start with donald trump down 6 points since last month. Down 11 points among independents. This is taking a toll on him. Predictably so. It doesnt diminish it at all. The thing thats dangerous for trump right now is that that is all prior to the stuff thats happened on the democratic side this week. Those 6 points have been selfinflicted. Now youre going to see Hillary Clinton get the bump. Thats the loss before the bump of bernie meeting with obama and obama endorsing hillary and the democrats coming together and you have donny
deutsch, down among independents. Hes lost 11 points. But a key group for him and hes bleeding support. Bpicture going forward. You have bill clinton, barack obama, Elizabeth Warren on the campaign trail. Particularly Bernie Sanders two amazing fundraisers. Its beginning to be interesting. Trump was quiet all week. Quietest since the primaries. And hes going to come out monday night. Hes tipped. Its going to be this anticlinton speech. When hes backed in a corner, its to get even nastier. Thats going to backfire on him. It doesnt work anymore. I have a prediction. I was saying this to mike. He has never been in the public eye as getting bashed. Hes not used to that. I would actually see where the story ends and love to hear. But at some point him bowing out and going home. If you look at every president that would be thin skinned. Bob dole and al gore, mitt romney, these people get labeled losers. Which they shouldnt. Donald trump, i think at some point the way this ends you think he might just e he takes his toys and goes home. I have heard other people say that. The difference between donald trump and these other guys when talking about romney or bob dole, they are politicians for life. Donald trump, hes talked about it, joked about it, but somebody close to trump and the organization said always remember. If it continues, if he gets brand ed a monumental loser, wh
knows what happens. What you do here in this small town big town in manhattan from various people who know trump and business with trump is that he is acutely sensitive to the brand. Thats the most important aspect of his life of who he is. He measures every political statement he makes and every political appearance he makes blended in with is this going to help or hurt the brand. That is his down fall. Because the level of selfabsorption within donald trump thats there today or there 50 years ago, it prohibits him from talking about the country. Talking about how he would make a difference. Look at Trump University. Michael steele, talk about selfself selfinflicted wounds. Hes down 11 over the past month with independents. Down 6 with all voters since the last month. So much of that has to do with him obsessing over a battle with an indiana judge over Trump University. Not over any issue that matters to americans or to republicans or to conservatives. Its something that matters to him and him alone. Joe, i suspect he will be down another 5 points by this time next week once, as you discussed, the numbers settle in after this week, which has been a phenomenal week for the democratic party. Which unfortunately if you had a different nominee or nominee with a different mind set not talking about a personal legal matter but talking about the 38,000 jobs from last month, talking about the i. G. Report, talking about trade and other issues that have palpable impact on the democratic normminee can i stop you there for a second . Sure. Can you believe the i. G. Report that came out talking about Hillary Clinton playing fast and loose with information
regarding drone strikes, as top secret as it gets, and we have a republican nominee hes talking about Trump University. Are you kidding me . That would be dominating the week, but for Donald Trumps own selfabsorbed campaign. I adopted the Bernie Sanders line and said, we dont care about your damn university. We dont care about your damn lawsuit. Talk about the fact that you have these things that are third party indictments against Hillary Clinton and her cozying assuming the obama agenda on the economy, the 38,000 jobs are yours. Youre talking about that and youre exactly right. Mika, one of the most abysmal job reports we have had and its responded to by one tweet. The campaign is running stupid. There is no campaign. Theres no campaign. He doesnt want to be president. My private conversation with him when he was about to win iowa. Were talking on the phone. He goes, can you believe this . I said, do you actually want to be president . Changed the subject. Im going to say it again. Hes not going to be on the ticket. Radio silence since this judge thing because e he cant be told hes wrong. I will say you are wrong when you are wrong. This is wrong. It shouldnt be done. You should apologize. I cant get over it. Im sorry. Its not his brand. By the way, nor can a lot of people. This campaign is going downhill. I predict the next polls are even worse. This guy is literally deep sixing his campaign. The republicans who are reaching out to me, also to you. My phone is going crazy. They are ab sloutly stunned. Chris christie, walk away. Put down your bag, take your jacket off and walk out of that campaign before you ruin your future. Hes ruined it already. These guys, paul ryan, whats wrong with you . Let me tell you what republicans are yearning for, at least a good number of republicans. One person, just one person. Its not paul ryan. Because paul ryan said im for the racist because hes not had hillary. Hes not paul ryan. Just imagine what a Chris Christie standing up saying, i got behind this guy because i believed that he understood what working class voters across new jersey and america what they werent hearing from the Republican Leaders. I got behind him for the right reasons, pu you know what, hes
not following through on his commitment to me or to the Republican Voters and i cant be behind him u. Its okay to do that. If somebody would do that, you talked about a shot in the arm for anybody politically. Joe, i wanted to go back to something Donny Deutsch said. He was talking about the politicians fearing donald trump. They dont fear donald trump. Donald trump is not the fear factor. Its the base of support. Its the 14 million voters hes brought out. Its how that number of activists between now and the convention. And they havent figured out how to distance themselves from trump and bring those voters in to Something Different in another way. Were for you, were just not
for Donald Trumps racist comments. Obama just endorsed crooked hillary. Nobody else wants four more years of obama. Delete your account, a popular internet expression for when someone said something deeply inaccurate or tone death. It has 375,000 retweets making it clintons most popular tweet yet. Trump responded, how long did it take for your staff of 823 poem to think that up. Where are your 33,000 e emails that you deleted . The rnc chairman tweeted at clinton, if anyone knows how to use a delete key, its you. The Communications Director added, whichever intern just sent this doesnt get its not smart for you to talk about deleting anything. Kasie hunt, wow, what a zinger on twitter. This would have been a great week for Hillary Clinton. The Campaign Must be so relieved theres no Trump Campaign that can think beyond Donald Trumps very thin skin and the criticism hes getting about the judge. The Clinton Campaign could not be in a better place to put it mildly. Think about what we learned yesterday. Hillary clinton is going to walk out on the campaign trail. Her, bill clinton, president obama, joe biden, Elizabeth Warren and at this point its probably also going to be Bernie Sanders. That is a formidable team. Right now they are up against a Republican Party that frankly cant stand behind its current normminee because of the thingse has been saying. So the staff at headquarters yesterday was gathered around a couple tvs as they watched that video from president obama clapping and cheering. Some of those aids have been
with had Hillary Clinton for a decade and they remember her cry ing in front of secret Service Agents when she lost the nomination to barack obama almost eight years to the day since that actually happened. Now i think it really was a moment. Weve been talking about the speculation. One clinton aid told me that Elizabeth Warren has proven herself to be an attack dog against donald trump in a way that honestly they are a little surprised by. They are not ready to engage in more direct vp speculation, but she put herself back on the radar in that way u. But were talking about tweets going back and forth with tweets instead of a response to the i. G. Report on acting fast and loose. Its campaign suicide. Dismal jobs report and they are tweeting. Heres the thing. Just in terms of cold, hard political analysis and what we watched. We all agree the republican side is in disarray. Theres no Trump Campaign. Think about the political difficulty of what the democratic side had to manage this week. The end of the nominating process, Bernie Sanders, can we unite the party. Whats going on in Bernie Sanders head. What do we have to orchestrate this week. Yesterday in a great delicacy, they basically essentially said yesterday hes not going to fight on to philadelphia and hes going to endorse Hillary Clinton and be on her side. That doesnt take a decoder to figure that out from bha he said. They got him out of the race. They got the obama endorsement. You had biden and warren both beating donald trump senseless on Television Last night with powerful attacks that are on message. This is like a professional high level professional political operation going on in the white house in conjunction with the
brooklyn headquarters of Hillary Clinton. Thats how you run a president ial campaign. This is the moment of highest vulnerability for the democratic ticket. They executed perfectly all week long. On the other side, you have a state of complete disarray. And a response to all of that with a tweet. Theres one added ingredient to this that flew under the radar yesterday because of the nature of the endorsement from the president. But i am told by several people within the white house do not underestimate Barack Obamas eagerness to crush donald trump. Not defeat him, crush him. Off of partially the birth certificate flap, its personal. Its deeply personal. Its about maintaining his legacy, he knows whats at stake, but its also really personal. Obamas mind trump represents everything that all of the darkness hes confronted over the last eight years buzz hes the most prominent exponent and voice for the birther thing. He is going to be aggressive. Not only that, even though i would not be in this approval category, barack obama is politically a giant, a giant among very small politicians on both sides. 51 overall if youre driving. 88 among democrats. 82 among Bernie Sanders primary voters. 90 among americans, who are going to be vital for hillary. Latinos, 73 . Among millennials, those 18 to 34, 64 Approval Rating. Thats somebody that any democratic candidate is going to want. And i it was chuck todd saying he doesnt want to go down as the obama presidency. When you go into that third
term, it becomes an era. Michael steele has been trying to get in. Just real quick. All that is great about obama, but there are some potential dangers for him to get totally engaged in this. Over the course of the summer we get continued weak job reports thark could be a problem. And secondly, this fall premiums start to go up on obamacare. Thats going to hit a lot of wallets. That could be a discussion this fall. Donald trump wont be smart enough to use that. He will be too busy tweeting about little things. And saying racist things. That split screen. When Donald Trumps helicopter was landing in New Hampshire back in 2012 and president obama got up there and essential ly released his birth certificate to stomp all over donald trump, thats the koind of optics we might see from this president. This is like metaphorically, this is what we have had thats the metaphor of this crucial turning point in the campaign these two weeks. Its been split screen of what we have seen from donald trump and the operation to the extent that exists and now we have seen on the democratic side. A lot of people make the argument this is when elections get decided. Not in october. This moment when people are just really focused on the general election. Impressions are being driven in and the split screen could not be more dramatic and favorable in this race. This paul needs to understand him in a way he understands. Its not about paul. Its not about it. Its not about the family. Its not about anybody. Because they have all been talking to him. This is all about donald trump doing whatever donald trump wants to do. Not listening to anybody. Hes going to go home. Still ahead on morning joe, we hear from paul ryan, who says he doesnt have an issue with Donald Trumps temperament. What has happened to him . Paul ryan, guys. More from Elizabeth Warren and joe biden yesterday. We like him. Lets just say whats the word . Peter king joins us. Chris jansing has new reporting from the Bernie Sanders campaign. But first, heres bill karins with a check on the forecast and an earthquake rattling Southern California this morning. Tell us about it. 4 00 east coast time. This was in Southern California. You e see the front page of tte l. A. Times. It gave everyone a jolt. It was shallow so a lot of people felt it. It was a rolling earthquake. But there was not any significant damage. It was on the lower end of the scale. This is an active fault so this
area is used to getting earthquakes. Especially the weak ones. Today into the weekend, the heat is on in the middle of the country. Its going to feel like 95 to 100 from minneapolis to st. Louis. We have a few thunderstorms diving around this really hot dome of air. Also near chicago, milwaukee and down to indianapolis and muncie, indiana, we have some storms. Later today were going to regenerate new storms. Wind damage over to green bay, this is an area thats under risk. Then on saturday, the Severe Weather makes it to the east. 73 Million People because were including all the Populated Areas back to cleveland and chicago. Large hail and damaging wind. Its the heat thats going to be the story. 90s are heading east. D. C. Is going to get up there around 95 degrees. Carolinas on sunday, 100 in raleigh and in charlotte. Stay u cool this upcoming weekend. Its going to get hot and steamy u. More morning joe, when we come back. Show me movies with romance. Show me more like this. Show me previously watched. Whats recommended for me. X1 makes it easy to find what you love. Call or go online and switch to x1. Only with xfinity. House Speaker Paul Ryan continues to do the delicate dance of criticizing the presumptive nominee while Still Standing by him. Heres Andrea Mitchell speaking with ryan yesterday. Look, i think his stage presence is something thats different than say what i would do, but my personal interactions i find an even temperament. You have said what he said about the judge was textbook definition of racism. How can you then say, but, hes okay to be president. Theres no justifying those comments. I was very clear about that. I think we all not just republicans, should disavow comments like that. Im glad he walked it back. This is a Long Campaign and a long way to go. He has a ways to go to give us a
campaign we can all be proud of. He didnt walk it back. He called him a mexican. Why is paul ryan jumping into this . He called him a mexican. He kad he wasnt going to talk about it anymore and his words were misconstrued. Do we need to read you the newspaper . Somebody that is to talk to paul ryan . You know why he won . Only 25 of republicans polled think that what donald trump said was racist. Thats whats wrong with the Republican Party. 1 in 4 republicans heard what donald trump said and thinks its racist. Thats whats wrong with the Republican Party right now. Its stunning. The other thing thats wrong and one of the reasons why donald trump excelled during the primaries is that paul ryan now is epitomizing what people think of politicians. Say anything to retain a hold on his power. His power to continue over a
majority of the house of representatives. Isnt that what this is all about . Its not even a job he really asked for. Speakership, yeah. Dont take the job if youre not going to do it like a leader. He has authority to stand up. We thought the moral core. I thought paul ryan was the future. What happens in the house among the percentage of Tea Party Activists . I say, listen, you begged me to be your speaker. Im your speaker. Sometimes me being your speaker means following. Sometimes it means leading. This is one of those times when it means leading. When we have a person that represents our party making clearly racist statements, i cant get behind him. I understand some of you who already have. Lets agree to disagree. I will defend your right u to do
what you do. Joe, how do you unpack that and salvage an election this fall . Thats the rub right now. Thats what republicans, you and i know are trying to figure out. How do you win in november . Ill say what ive been saying all along. Its about the art of the deal. Right now, you give donald trump everything donald trump wants and dont make him pay for racist statements and make him pay for doing things that damage the brnd he will continue like a bull in a china shop. If youre paul ryan and you quietly call him up and say you either back off that or im going to have to withdraw my endorsement. That changes the entire dynamic. Donald trump then has to talk to you. He can call you a loser if he wants to, but more republicans need to do it. We said it the other day. If Republican Leaders shoulder to shoulder at a press conference said these were racist statements, donald trump needs to back off of them and apologize. He needs to talk about how
openly ignorant they were or were going to pull our support. Donald trump would have actually had to deal with the Republican Party going from a position of strength. Instead this is nothing but weakness and it invites nothing more but bad behavior. The pathetic reason, 1 in 4 republicans have a problem. I can find you polls that said 40 of democrats thought george bush blew up the twin towers. Im just saying, you can find a poll for everything. Its steve jobs always said sometimes people need leaders. He would be paul ryans dilemma at the end of that conversation. Youre right about the conversation. Youre right about the fact of the conversation should have taken place with paul ryan
explaining what you just said. Donald trumps reaction would be thus. First of all, hes a 70yearold fully formed adult. Hes not going to change his nature at this point in time. So he would say to paul ryan, who are you to be lecturing me . How much money do you make in your job . Im the speaker of the house. Im the highest ranking republican in government. It wouldnt matter. Im worth billions. I built a great company. I did it on my own. Im not sure youre worth billions, but i do know what i am. Im third in line to be president of the United States right now. I know youll never get that close as long as you keep uttering these comments like that. It would be great. You cant dream of being this close to the seat of power because you keep blowing yourself up. Im not going to let you blow my Republican Party up with me. Take that act somewhere else. Why dont you run as an independent . You guys can smoke pot all night and talk all day. I dont care. Youre not going to do that. Youre defending heilemann. Im just saying. Somebody needs to talk to him that way. It sounds like youre weak. Its the only way i can settle my brain. None of this makes sense. All the time we have covered anything together in this show, this makes the least sense to me. I do think to mikes point is really deeply true about it. The idea that trump is going to change in some fundamental way, if you got him to apologize for comments, donald trump was speaking his heart when he said the things he said. I dont think whatever you think about those comments i
dont think hes apologizing because he doesnt think he has anything to apologize for. I also think for people who sit around a table for three hours at 6 00 in the morning, we ought to not say whatever comes out of your mouth is from your heart. Because sometimes youre tired and say stupid things. He kept saying them over and over again. Then he lied to cover it up, and thats where i dont understand. Hes probably never said im sorry in his entire life. We have to move on right now. Still ahead, chuck todd and republican congressman peter king, morning joe is coming right back. man oh, looks like we missed
most of the show woman and theres no way to restart it. jon bon jovi with directv there is.

trumps comments on the judge as fatter at the american constitution society. Like all federal judges, hes bound but judicial ethics not to respond to these attacks. Trump is picking on someone who is ethically bound not to defend himself. Exactly what you would expect from a thinskinned, racist bully. Wouldnt it be wild as president to come back in november to do a civil case . How can that be interpreted any other way than as a direct threat. These are words, in my view, of one who would defy the courts if they ruled against him as
president. To use the office of the presidency, were he to acquire it, to intimidate and undermine an independent judiciary would be an unconstitutional abuse of power. Either mr. Trump, which is possible, doesnt understand because this is a realm hes never dealt before or he doesnt care that it would border on an Impeachable Offense for a president to use the powers of the office to attempt to undermine a federal judge by placing pressure on that judge in any case, especially one the president has of personal financial stake. In addition to this, it is racist. [ applause ] but its not the racism that frightens me. We have dealt with racists before. Its the potential impact on the
court order. I want to ask you a question. 6 on 6 football, Hillary Clinton and behind her you have joe biden, bill clinton, barack obama, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren. You have donald trump. Who are the people standing behind him that can get on the same field . I dont think a lot of people would get too close. Who are the five people . Heres the thing. You need to look at one part of that fox news poll that we blew past and that is who will bring change to washington, d. C. That is the one number where donald trump is still light years ahead of Hillary Clinton. All those people you named are every bit as much of the establishment as jeb bush and george w. Bush. Hold on, guys. Who will shake up things in washington . Donald trump, 76 . Hillary clinton, 37 . Im not saying that donald trump isnt in a world of trouble. What im saying is anybody running against Hillary Clinton, that ran a competent campaign wouldnt need six people behind them. Donald trump does not appear to be that man right now. I think Elizabeth Warren adds a little bit of im going to shake up washington. As does Bernie Sanders. And so, yes, they are party establishment. Kasie hunt, i appreciate biden saying it was racism. You dont need to say some say allegedly or all that stupidity. Its unnecessary. This was racism. There are certain things we dont tolerate in our society. Racism is one of them. Kasie hunt, the clinton Campaign Must be feeling good moving
forward but they still have bump ace head because trump will attack. They do. That number you were just talking about shows the challenge that they do have. Hillary clinton does have an opportunity to put somebody like Elizabeth Warren, if she. S to go that way, she could potentially work on that. The Clinton Campaign was paying close attention to everything that Elizabeth Warren was saying. They believe one aid told me she would be a weapon of war against donald trump. Thats clearly how they are viewing her. I also having listened to all these republicans and then Bernie Sanders even talk about donald trump. Elizabeth warrens attacks on him are some of the most effective i have seen. Sitting in a room watching a crowd react thinking about how she does it in comparison, even to Hillary Clinton, she called him straight up a racist bully u. Hillary clinton was asked directly is donald trump a racist and she said i dont know whats in his heart. I a the attack itself was racist. But Elizabeth Warren has this freedom to go after him in that way that could be potentially really effective. The other piece of her attack was she went after Trump University in a way that was more cutting than i had heard. Essentially casting it, and it goes with people that have gotten ripped off by donald trump over the years, she cast this as essentially donald trump taking advantage of vulnerable people. She did it in this very sharp, straight forward way that i hadnt heard Hillary Clinton, for example, say in such an effective way. This is Elizabeth Warrens message for the schemes from scammers. She feels this. Is one of the words that puts in there is trump that is the most devastating. She puts the word little. She had a lot of words in there. Kasie hunt, thank you so much. Michael steele, what are we
missing here . What are the Donny Deutschs of the world missing around the table . Dont ask that question. Its been a one note performance over the first 50 minutes. We were one noters when we were talking about how trump was going to win the republican nomination. But it seems to me were being one noters here at least to us because trump is driving his candidacy in the entire party over a cliff. But i give you the view. I do have a little bit of a view. It does rest in the 76 number. There are still u a significant number of opportunities for donald trump ahead. Folks, this is june. I know it looks awful right now. But there is a space to learn and i think hes going to try to do that. How much he does remains to be seen. You have time between now and the convention, theres a lot of
work. But the 76 number is something you have to keep in the back of your mind about how americans are are looking at shaking up washington and if thats going to be a driver going forward. The second is thing is i dont get the whole Elizabeth Warren thing. Im sorry, from everything i have read and heard privately and publicly, theres not a whole lot of love between Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton to begin with. They may collaborate on this, but i dont see those two powerful personalities teaming up as a ticket this fall. I think thats a big question for the country to look at. Thats how men think. Thats not how men think. Im hearing that from women. So its not just about how men think here. Thats women 30 years ago. I think the way Hillary Clinton thinks and im with you on this, Michael Steele. The way Hillary Clinton thinks is she doesnt need anymore drama. I think thats why tim cain will
be her selection. Him or perez is my top choice for her as well. Thats an opportunity for hillary to leverage an Elizabeth Warren to her advantage as much as possible. But as a ticket, not happening. I think it will. I think it should. We have to go to prompter now. Still ahead, you think it will happen . I do too. Do you think . I have said it all along. I think it should. Can i get a yes . So we can go to break . Yes. Still ahead, new polling that says donald trump in a free fall. Nearly as many people hold their nose when they vote as being excited about their candidate.

thank you, Hillary Clinton, for possibly becoming the first president. I would have said female but someone deleted the email. Wheres my music . Thank you, congress, for spending eight years wishing you could replace me with a republican. Or to put it another way, how do you like me now . Welcome back to morning joe. Thats pretty funny. Its friday, june 10th. Still with us onset is legendary
column i columnist Donny Deutsch. Take it off. Take it off. Dont do that. Managing editor John Heilemann. In washington we have chairman of the Republican National committee Michael Steele. Also columnist, associate editor of the Washington PostEugene Robinson. We also have political reporter robert costa. Just get rid of the jacket. I need a pul iitzer prize on to back me. Up this is to the male candy stripers working in o hospitals. You look like an Ice Cream Truck guy. Hes the good humor man. You make us sick. Thats awful. That was just mean. Totally uncalled for. We talked about the week donald trump has on the campaign trail and theres evidence that its taking a political toll. Whats wrong with him . We have a new Fox News National poll taking sunday through wednesday. What does it show . Hillary clinton ahead of trump, 42 to 39 . Thats inside the margin of error, but it is a 6point drop for trump. Something is happening. I predict more. Among independents, he still leads clinton 35 to 30 , but hes down 11 points in that the key voting group. Majorities believe clinton and trump do not have well get to the integrity part in a second. But first, jeanne robinson, a 6point drop among independents. And this is even before democrats started to come together this week. We expect even more in the
future. 11point drop among independents. Thats not just significant. Thats getting towards fatal territory i think. Why wouldnt it continue to tell you the truth. Given the way trump has performed the last couple weeks and as you said democrats are gearing up now so youre going to have Elizabeth Warren out there. Youre going to have biden out there. You have the president out there. And bernie will be out there at some point. This is a bad period for donald trump and this could be the stretch where he just loses. I think its fatal. Couldnt get much worse. As John Heilemann wrote in 2012, the Obama Campaign effectively finished mitt romneys campaign in may. May or june, well before the convention. They had defined him. Bob costa, give us reporting of whats going on inside the Trump Campaign right now. I talked to insiders, not especially pleased with the direction its going. Does anybody in the campaign have Donald Trumps ear enough to change things . You see trump talking more now to the Republican National committee, talking to party leaders, seeming to acknowledge he needs to become more disciplined not just on the front but his overall message. A big test is how talks are going with planning for the convention. Can trump reintroduce himself to the country in cleveland this july. Havent we already had this talk before where trump is going to prove he could discipline himself more . After wisconsin we saw it for a couple weeks. But that was it. This is the unpredictable trump. The thought inside of trump tower in he can overwhelm the
media and the news cycle. This point the problem for trump is he has a lot of the party wary. The people he needs to be rallying are nervous about him. Does that include the big fundraisers. Trump is raising more money than in the past. The Financial Network that community of donors that are reluctant to get behind him in a big way. A lot of those people are in utah at mitt romneys annual gathering. You have some of the biggest givers in republican politics. Mike has talked to republican donors at events over the past several weeks. Almost a state of despair. The refusal to really give significant amounts to this guy. The interesting aspect of that is youre right. I talked to five or six very
wealthy republican donors about a week and a half ago. Each of them individually have a similar message to vote for anybody but Hillary Clinton. Usually you hear from people like that. They were with donald trump earlier, but now they have backed away. Why . The universal reason independently was embarrassment. So this is interesting. The poll shows that majorities believe clinton and trump do not have the integrity to serve effectively. 54 saying no, 58 for trump. If we can stop here, this is where Elizabeth Warren really serves a purpose. Because trump is going to continue. The one thing trump will do is attack Hillary Clintons integrity and will use the kernels of truth from her story from the emails to benghazi to personal stuff. Elizabeth warren brings to the table not only integrity, but a
history of fighting for the very sector of voters that Bernie Sanders really has a grip on. She created the the financial protection bureau. She was run out by republicans. She went to the senate and said im coming back. How it takes advantage of americans. Shes been working for her entire career. And Hillary Clinton telling her story would give such credibility to those voters who question whether or not shes really there for them. You look at the integrity question and its a sin gn of weakness. Wall street journal, the Clinton Emails have to do with the secretive Drone Program but donald trump tweeting about Trump University and other things. The number that hillary has to offset is she has 74 has the knowledge to be president. Clinton for ahead of trump on the knowledge issue. So clearly thats this offsetting penalty on that one. Im fascinated come monday night, trump is giving a speech monday. Its the first time hes going public. He says hes going to more than ever go after the clintons. I think trumps response right now is going to more than ever, its going to backfire. Its going to bring bill back and seem so thin at this point. I dont e know what bullets trump uses because if he goes back to old trump and comes out firing and nastier than ever, it rings weak at this point as
oppose d to offensive. Hes never been on defense before. I dont know how he plays defense. U dont know if hes ever played defense his entire life. I dont think its in his dna. Hes going to go out tonight. The big speech is monday night. Well see how that works. Theres also a question about who will shake things up in washington. Thats a critical issue. 37 believe clinton can while 76 say trump will. But the question is how at this point. In 2016 thats not a bad number to be 30 points ahead on. There are two things that trump has going for him. If you dial back two two weeks ago when the polls were even despite his issues with women and hispanics, he represents to a lot of voters change more than Hillary Clinton does. Even though shes an historic
figure. Shes been around forever. Shes seen as a change agent and these questions about her trustworthiness and character. Those were the big dynamics that favored trump. But again, we have seen there are all these other offsetting things and the last two weeks are conceivably likely to be a big turning point in this race. Well go to bob. I u think John Heilemann is spot on. When you talk to republicans on capitol hill, i was here yesterday talking to a lot of them, trump doesnt have a traditional organization. Hes alienating women and young people and hes scaring off a lot of minority voters. But their u only hope is that he does represent some kind of change and that in spite of all his vulgarities and mistake, if the voters are looking for change, maybe republicans can ride this wave with this person. Theres a lot of hesitation. The democrats believe theres so many vulnerabilities. Is this a change election or is this about Donald Trumps character and thats going to be a deciding factor. How are you the change candidate when young voters are overwhelmingly against you, women are against you, Fastest GrowingDemographic Group hispanics are against you. Demographics is destiny when you pile that much up. Change works when its a blank piece of paper. Thats what barack obama had. Bill clinton had. Change doesnt work when the blank piece of paper is dangerous and scary. Particularly when suburban women voters are usually the swing and go more risk averse. This is change, but change to danger versus change to the unknown. Nobody wants that. One thing that even barack obama understood when he ran in 2008 is he said im like this blank sheet of paper that
everybody can project their hopes and their wishes on to. They can define it the way they want to define it. Donald trump, for better or for worse and over the past two weeks people would say is defined as you get. Exactly. Thats a big problem for him. If this is at this point this early a referendum on donald trump and on Donald Trumps fitness to be president , then donald trump loses. I dont think at this point he can win an election thats just a referendum on his fitness for offi office. Hes given too much evidence of a lack of fitness, a lack of propriety and being a loose canon. His aim, clearly, is to make more of a referendum on Hillary Clintons fitness for office. But at the moment, shes winning that definition battle. Democrats are winning that battle and trump is helping them. Hes defining himself. And missing massive
opportunities to push his campaign forward. Heres nbc newss Andrea Mitchell speaking with paul ryan yesterday as he continues to try to balance criticizing trump for being racist while Still Standing by him. Look, i think his stage presence is something thats different than what i would do, but my personal interactions i find them to have an even temperament. You have even said that what he said about judge curiel was a textbook racism, but you can say hes okay to be president. Theres no justifying those comments. I was very clear about that. Not just republicans, we all should disavow comments like that. Im glad he walked it back. This is a Long Campaign with a long way to go. He has a ways to go to give us a campaign we can all be proud of. He didnt walk it back. We know paul ryan. Love paul ryan. Paul ryan is wrong here. This is pretty sad. Its sad. That donald trump would tweet. A guy i have known and liked and respected for years. Internally, everybody understands and the house of representatives and politics how difficult a position hes in now trying to manage a crowd of republican representatives and maintain control of house, but its still sad watching a guy who supposedly has strong principles walking away from a critical piece of the principles. You cant be for and against trump. Republicans cant have it both ways. If it you say you intend to cast your ballot for donald trump, thats an endorsement. You can be for him or against him, but not both. I realize that republican officials are in an impossible position, more are appalled by
trump but beholden to a gop base that made trump its clear choice in the primaries. Only few have dared to say they cannot vote for this man as president. So far it seems inevitable there will be more at least hes not Hillary Clinton goes the republican refrain. Thats certainly true. Strip away the party labels and you have one candidate who is qualified to be president and one who manifestly is not and, again, we revert back to paul ryan, the speaker of the house and the difficult position hes in and hes in exactly what you described. Hes in a world of hurt right now because he is the highest ranking republican official. Hes got some juice, though. E he has leverage. I agree with what joe was saying earlier about paul ryan could be playing a much more active role here, i think, in at least trying to get trump under
control. Now theres a philosophical question here as to whether just getting trump to pretend to be a reasonable candidate for a a few weeks. Whether that accomplishes anything. The man is who he is. He turned 70 years old next week. Hes not going to change, i think. And so in that sense, maybe its a fools errand. But when did trump walk it back . Robert costa, can you give us reporting on the thinking of what paul ryan has done over the past week . I have covered paul ryan for the past few years. This is an ideological person, a popular guy in the house of representatives who relished being on the sidelines of american politics. A committee chairman, someone who didnt have to be in the red hot center, took the Vice President ial nod for a few
months and now he has this speakers gavel. Hes doing what so many other people in the party are doing. If you have power and youre in leadership, you have to be a party man. Youre under the pressure to preserve the party. You cant just make a moral, individual choice. You have to think about the party. Thats what so many republicans are going through right now and they are uncomfortable about it. Donald trump could not be further from where paul ryan is on issues like entitlements, on issues like trade, issues like foreign policy. If paul ryan is a guy that is thinking of running in 2020, how does he survive this intact . He may or may not. Its not for me to say at the moment. But paul ryan has to make a choice. Is he the speaker of the conservative movement or is he a speaker of the house of representatives in the head of the Republican Party . Thats the tension. He would rather be the person grading policy and thinks of himself as a conservative. But this republican project is another project thats different than movement conservatism. The question is now can the republican project be preserve ed as we know it. Robert costa, eugene robin n robinson, thank you. A private meeting in the white house with president obama, which was fitting since they are both beloved political figures who are just a few months away from being president. Chris jansing joins the table to take us inside Bernie Sanders meeting with Top Democrats in washington. And chuck todd joins us as well. And later republican congressman peter king is our guest.

Thats why i know hillary will be so good at it. In fact, i dont think theres ever been someone so qualified to hold this office. I u am ready to get in this fight and work my heart out for Hillary Clinton to become the next president of the United States. And to make sure u that donald trump never gets any place close to the white house. Shes got the courage, the compassion and the heart to get the job done. I say that as somebody who had had to debate her more than 20 times. Anybody who thinks that whoever the next president is and god willing it will be Hillary Clinton, but whoever the next president is, i dont say that for political reasons. Those were three high profile endorsements Hillary Clinton pick ed up yesterday. All day yesterday was in washington beginning his series of high profile meetings with the president in the white house. Let me begin by thanking president obama and thanking Vice President biden for the
degree of impartiality they established during the course of this entire process. What they said u in the beginning is that they would not put their thumb on the scales, and in fact, they kept they word and i appreciate that very much. Needless to say, i am going to do everything in my power, and i will work as hard as i can, to make sure that donald trump does not become president of the United States. He also conferred with the Vice President , harry reid and chuck smoochumer. He capped his day with a rally. Gone were the biting talking points about superdelegates, a path to the nomination and contested convention in philadelphia. Joining us at the table senior White House Correspondent chris jansing, who has been covering the Bernie Sanders campaign. And in washington political director and moderator of meet
the press chuck todd. So Bernie Sanders, chris, its not complete yet. Hes still in the race. He said from the beginning over the last month when people were asking him to get out he was going to stay through all the contests and it had become increase willing i clear becoming this slow realization what the numbers were, what the reality of his situation was. But then it kind of went into hyper speed. I dont think theres any doubt there were phone calls from the president. Biggest supporters in congress came out publicly, some of the big organizations that supported him came out publicly. It was clear that he had to make this move. Nobody is ever really ready, especially when you have been going to these big rallies and 10,000 people are screaming. But yesterday was a good day for him because he felt as though he got the respect of the president being in the oval for an hour. Joe biden spent an hour and a half with him u. Capitol hill he was getting
encouraging feedback. Now the tough part begins. What do you do with all this . How do you corral. Chuck todd, looking not only at whats happening with Bernie Sanders, but Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton are meeting privately today. Tell us your thoughts on what that is about and how valuable she could be to the campaign. Number one, Elizabeth Warren has proved her value so far in just her comfort and aggressiveness to bait donald trump. I think that the Clinton Campaign loves any surrogate willing to do that. I think right now this meeting today, one of the things that i think many people may not realize is Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren dont know each other well. They never served together in the senate. She got elected in 2012. Hillary clinton left the state department in january of 2013. So they have never had any professional interaction. Yes, they have met a few times,
but if she is going to seriously consider warren as a vp, then the meeting they are having this morning needs to be the first of many. Because if you know Hillary Clinton, shes not going to pick somebody she doesnt know. Elizabeth warren was the first, i think, speaker i had at my know your value events. And the room exploded when she walked in. I think shes got something not just what Bernie Sanders appeals to his voters or his supporters because many of them didnt turn out to the polls, but she definitely has a following. I think that could be effective. Heres Elizabeth Warren on the attack. Like all federal judges, hes bound by the federal code of judicial ethics not to respond to these attacks. Trump is picking on someone who is ethically bound not to defend
himself. Exact ly what you would expect from a thinskinned racist bully. [ applause ] donald trump is a loud, nasty, thinskinned fraud who has never risked anything for anyone and who serves no one but himself. You, donald trump, are a total disgrace. You shame u yourself and you shame this great country. And we will not allow a small, insecure, thinskinned tyrant or his allies in the senate to destroy the rule of law in the United States of america. We will not. Where do you think that comes from . It comes from everything shes worked for all her life. Same as Bernie Sanders. Thats why she appeals to his supporters. I think theres a trifecta with her, at least to the people i
have talked to. One is that she has this charisma. She really does draw people in, as you found with know your value. Two, she can go on the attack and be effective. And i hear this again and again with Bernie Sanders voters what would make you come over, many say its Elizabeth Warren. They feel she and bernie are for something. They are for the 15 minimum wij. They are for Campaign Finance reform. They are for things people feel have made the middle class oppressed. A little bit of an outsider in her without being frightening. Like the republicans. I want to ask chuck about what we talked about earlier in the show. To me, the 96 hours on the democratic side has been a marble of political orchestration and cooperation between the white house and the brooklyn headquarters of the Hillary Clinton campaign. Talk about that a little bit. It seems to me at the degree to
which they are interlocking and intwined is a huge advantage that Hillary Clinton has going forward. I totally agree. Add in the fact nothing helps rallying a party and uniting a Party Together like the outgoing president having an Approval Rating over 50 . The opponent in the middle of an implosion selfinflicted at this point. Essentially, democrats smell blood in the water. Theres almost an enthusiastic aspect to this by democrats saying, yeah, lets hurry up and get on board and start going after trump. Theres an opening here. They can go for the kill now. So dont dodd l, dont wait, dont ring your hands. There was none of that. The staff coordination is one thing. Dont overlook the fact that its a lot easier to unite, its easier for president obama to play the role hes playing when hes got an Approval Rating on the rise, not declining. Its a lot easier, also, when
the opponent has done something so colossally damaging to himself. Hasnt dialled it back, doubled down with a lie. Hes got about four or five statements hes made during the primary process that people let go because they were attached to some sort of kernel of truth that perhaps connected with primary voters. This is different. This is completely different. This was like two shots in the foot. Its done. I would say its only anecdotal, but over the last month when i have spent time with Bernie Sanders and supporters, its gone from not a small amount of people who would consider donald trump to last night or last couple of days virtually impossible to find someone who says, well, if bernie is not in the race, im going for donald trump. That trajectory has changed. Trump people have said cant do it anymore. Cant do it anymore. Its just too painful. Chris jansing, thank you very much. Chuck todd, who do you have on meet the press this weekend . Were going to dive into how to build a president ial campaign with David Plouffe and steve smith and compare how they are doing it. Then we have an interesting thing at the top. We cant reveal it yet. Okay, well, thats a tease. Coming up, thank you, chuck. Bill clinton on the campaign trail.

I think youre going to find it informative. I think most people would like to know whats going on in his head. Instead of what happened with bill clinton 30 years ago. Thats it. He doesnt get that. Thats a problem. They want to know whats going on in Donald Trumps head today instead of what happened in bill
clintons personal life 30 years ago. Thats why bullets have been taken away. His game has been bang, bang, ill call you a name, talk about this. Because now the light is on him, we have never seen that and never seen him in the mode. The more he shoots, the weaker he seems. The campaign is no longer about clinton or low energy bush. Its about donald trump. Hes put the spotlight on himself. Anything he says about the clintons doesnt have the shock value. Until he talks about himself. Donald trump returns to the campaign trail tonight kicking off a week of rallies and appearances. Trump is headed to richmond, virginia, the first stop in a battleground tour. Hes scheduled to appear in florida and pennsylvania tomorrow before going on to New Hampshire on monday. And at his speech at New Hampshire on monday, trump is expected to unveil that new speech on Hillary Clinton. Up next, well get congressman

Youre seeing it from the beginning of the campaign. Joining us now from capitol
hill, republican congressman peter king from new york. You were with donald trump from day one. Always said hed make the best president shs the best representative of the Republican Party. What do you say now . Actually, all kidding aside, i was very critical of donald trump throughout the primary season. But right now, two choices. Donald trump or Hillary Clinton. Why dont you run as an independent . If youd be my Vice President , ill do it. Lets do it. Here we go. But heres the problem, though. You know this. And people around you know this. When you have republicans saying, which is what they are saying right now, yeah, hes a racist, but hes not Hillary Clinton. Thats not something i know you. You cant live with that. So whats the alternative . First of all, i dont accept that hes a racist. I barely know donald trump. You know him better than i do. But i know people that work with him who know him u and they have
had tough business dealings with him. He can be a rough guy u in the board room, but theres not a hint of racism. I make a decision between a racist and hes almost 70 years old. Hes been in the public life and no one has come up with any type of racism at all. Whether its country clubs, society. Considering that, though, congressman, he made a racist comment. And then he doubled down on it. And then he said he didnt want to talk about it anymore. Then he said his words were misconstrued. So then he made a racist comment and lied about it instead of apologize iing for it. Isnt that a problem in terms of his fitness to lead . Its definitely a problem. If were going to look at this, try to look at it objectively. Its deplorable. But on the other hand, you have the inspector generals report and Hillary Clinton and if that is accurate that report ba
basically shows that american lives were at risk. She didnt tell the truth about it. To me, that goes just as much to your character as being president as a remark about a judge who is an american hero. Congressman, its Donny Deutsch. Youre my favorite republican. I love that jacket, by the way. Thank you very much. Isnt a simple statement branding 1. 4 Million People that they are not allowed in this country and all muslims are this . Is that not a racist comment . I wouldnt have said it and ive been critical of elements of the muslim community. You have donald trump exaggerating. What he should have said is that people coming from countries where theres islamist Terror Threat should be subjected to more scrutiny than if they were coming from a country where theres no Terror Threats. Donald trump is giving to
hyperbole. What e he said about the reporter was wrong. But again, that was all known during the primaries. This added comment about the mexicanamerican judge or the judge born in indiana whose parents are mexican was wrong. But again, i think its part of donald trump not having a faciliilter. Again, i go back to the fact i spoke with so many people who say they have never seen a hint of racism in him. His remarks are wrong. Its going to hurt us as a party. My other concern here is theres no Political Organization right now. Theres no campaign organization. And i think Hillary Clinton is a vulnerable candidate. I think this is a race republicans can win. Whether its the supreme court, military, police, i do stand with what donald trump says hes going to do. But these are not the best choices in the world that we
have. Congressman, you know that we like you despite your playing up to Donny Deutsch and his jacket. Youre almost a democrat. We really like you. Youre killing me, mike. I understand what you just said about donald trump. You dont believe hes a racist. We get that. But youve also said that part of what donald trump says or, quote, careless and reckless. So my question to you is were voting for president of the United States. Do you want to see careless and reckless as qualities in a president . The alternative is what we saw in the inspector generals report. I have a great regard for Hillary Clinton personally. Youre talking about something where security was put at risk. We can go through other instances whether its benghazi or others where there are real questions about Hillary Clintons capacity to be president. To me, we know what donald trump is saying. On the larger issues, on supreme court, building up the military,
having a tougher stand against isis, these are not the choices i would have looked for. I supported jeb bush, marco rubio and john kasich. Im the kiss of death. Those three and i endorsed Donny Deutschs jacket. Doubling down on the jacket. Hes 0 for 4, folks. Michael steele has a question. Congressman, i made the point earlier that this is june. The convention is in five weeks. Does donald trump, in your view, you have known him, as you just said, to the point where you dont e see him as a racist. You have never heard him make those kinds of comments. Is there a capacity for him to change at 70 years old . Can he make the pivot . Not change in the broad sense, but knowing what hes up against right here now, is he able to make this shift to actually put together the campaign that he needs to put together for the republicans to win in november . And listen to people who can help him do that . That remains to be seen, but he has to do it. If theres a Silver Lining from last week, as bad as that week was, Hillary Clintons numbers did not go up. His went down. He dropped 6 points. She stayed at 42 . Theres still the opportunity if he can turn this around. He has to get a Campaign Team and realize this is not the same as the the apprentice and dealing with the American People is not the republican primary voter when you have 15 or 16 opponents or when you are going oneonone like ted cruz who was the perfect opponent for donald trump. Hillary clinton is a great campaigner, she can be. She has. Bad moments too. But hes in the big leagues now. He has to be able to moderate and turn this around. Otherwise, its going to be a tough november. He can do it, but its going to be tough. Peter king, its great to have you with us. Thank you, peter. Still to come, you are a

there are new developments in a Sexual Assault case involving a former Stanford University athlete. Evidence found in Court Papers Revealing another side to the attacker brock turner. Nbcs Gadi Schwartz has the
latest. Reporter new evidence found in Court Papers Reveal another side of star swimmer brock turner caught in lies about his drug and drinking use. Multiple texts found on his personal cell phone by investigators. One text to a friend turner says oh, dude, i did acid with blank last week. In the months before the Sexual Assault of an unconscious female on stanfords camp urks a text asking, do you think i can buy some wax so we can do some dabs referring to marijuana oil. This a contrast to the cleancut image he presented. Turner write, i was an inexperienced drinker and partygoer and blaming the swim team for a Party Culture saying i just accepted these things they showed me as normal. Turner says he drank too much but never meant to hurt the victim and what he did was consensual. Protests are planned for graduation sunday as public support for the victim continues to grow. I didnt eat. I didnt sleep. Around the world, women and men now reading the victims powerful statement to the court as a rallying cry against Sexual Assaults. Vice President Joe Biden also joining the chorus. He writes, a lot of people failed you, add, i believe you. Its not your fault. At least one letter of character support for turner withdrawn. His High School Counselor apologizing saying he should be held accountable. Im truly sorry for the additional pain my statement has caused. While outrage continues to mount against the judge over the sixmonth sentence, turner expected to serve only 90 days. Theres been criticism of the judge in this case. Members of the Public Defenders Office and the District Attorney have come to his defense saying that while they disagreed with his decision in the sentencing, he should not be removed from office. Maybe he has mexican heritage. Is that possible . We want to read more of what Vice President joe biden wrote in his open letter to that
woman. He wrote i do not know your name but your words are forever seared on my soul. Words that should be required reading for men and women of all ages. Words that i wish with all of my heart you never had to write. Im filled with furious anger both that this happened to you and that our cult surstill so broken that you were ever put in the position of defending your own worth. It must have been wrenching to relive what he did to you all over again. But you did it anyway in the hope that your strength might prevent this crime from happening to someone else. Your bravery is breathtaking. You are a warrior with a solid steel spine. I join your global chorus of supporters because we can never say enough to survivors. I believe you. It is not your fault. What a hero she is. Incredible case. And a lot of a lot of different issues there. The drug use and the all
those things. The worst this kid is only going to serve 90 days. Now criminal is that. Yep. Go ahead. Yesterday we were talking with senator coburn about character. Character is an important aspect of an individual. In the news report that we just played on the stanford athlete on the swim team. One of his excuses in addition to, i was drinking, i wasnt used to drinking. I wasnt a party goer. Is to take his teammates on the swim team and throw them under the bus. Exactly. Up next, new numbers out this morning suggest donald trump is taking a hit for his attacks on that federal judge. Down six points among republicans and nearly double among independents. Plus, nbcs Hallie Jackson on reporting on a Small Business orn who says he has 30,000 reasons not to vote for trump and has to do with the mogul not paying up. Morning joe is back in a minute.

Donald trump is a loud, nasty, thinskinned fraud who has never risked anything for anyone and who serves no one but himself. You, donald trump, are a total disgrace. You shame yourself and you shame this great country. And we will not allow a small, insecure thinskinned wannabe tyrant or his allies in the senate to destroy the rule of law in the United States of america. We will not. Well, now, good morning. It is friday, june 10th. Welcome to morning joe. That was something. Yeah. Brisk. It was brisk. She kept going. Did she really . She perunched and punched. I became a huge Elizabeth Warren fan last night. She goes after trump in a way that is better and to me better than its vicious. Its genuine. Why do you think its better than other people . It comes from the gut, and i think she has a streetfighting way that is genuine and real and for the first time, i was looking boy, her and hillary together, that would be an interesting ticket. For the first time i said, wow, much in the same way clinton and gore had two southern younger. I was like, i wouldnt want to tangle with those two together. John heilemann, you hearing that . Hillary and Elizabeth Warren may
be a ticket . Ive thought when you came down to it shed be on the very top of the short list. She may not be the Vice President or the running mate, but shell be in that three or four people that clinton will just in their meeting this morning, where, alex . Washington. Maybe one of a thousand predictions youd get right if that happens. I dont know if shes trying out or that just comes from the gut, but oh, thats comes from her. Really . Shes been doing this for a whul. Those two things are mutually exclusive. Comes from the gut and trying out. The way shes approaching things and one other element that none of the republican candidates running in the primaries against donald trump had. Shes fearless. Yeah. They feared him. She does not fear him. Mika, that is the thing as you look at that. The difference between what we
saw yesterday and what weve seen throughout this entire process is youve had republicans afraid to cross donald trump, even now, afraid to cross donald trump after he makes what they call racist comments. And theyre still afraid to cross him. Still afraid to say theyll say youre racist but were going to endorse you anyway because they still fear donald trump. Fear has been driving this party and its reaction to donald trump since august and they keep paying for it. Theyve let everybody down. You have four reasons why she makes a good running mate. One, shes if its a street fight, shes a street fighter. Two, she helps with the bernie voters in a way no one else does with millennial progressives. Three, she helps widen the gender gap and, four, shes the historic kind of like if youll double down on history, not just on the chemistry but, lets go. If were going to have a woman
president , lets have a woman ticket. They actually work together. With us on set, we have legendary columnist legendary msnbc contributor mike barnicle, renowned ad man, Donny Deutsch and cohost of with all due respect, John Heilemann. In washington, we have former chairman of the Republican National committee, Michael Steele and msnbc Political Correspondent kasie hunt covering the Clinton Campaign. Mika, lets talk about the collective scar tissue and what impact its had on this race, at least to this point. Well, i think on donald trump this past week. I think at this point, especially last night when you heard from warren. You heard from the president and biden. It was an awful night for the republicans. And i dont say that with glee because i think it sounded like she did. It sounded like fleglee, micl
steele. Lets get to the news and then well talk about this. If there was any glee there its because theres some leaders there, including donald trump, who have completely let america down. So im really glad that somebody stood up to it. Weve talked about the tough week donald trump has had on the campaign and now there is evidence that all of this has taken a toll. The Fox News National poll taken from sunday through wednesday Shows Hillary clinton ahead of trump 42 to 39 . Thats inside the margin of error, but it is a sixpoint drop for trump since last month. Among independents, he still leads clinton, 35 to 30 , but he is down 11 points since last month in that key voting group. The poll shows that mairjoritie believe that clinton and trump do not have the integrity to serve effectively. But clinton is far ahead of
trump on the knowledge to serve effectively. On the question of who will shake things up in washington, only 37 believe clinton can and 76 say trump will. Still 47 happy to vote for their candidate in the fall and 43 say theyll do it holding their nose. All good for Elizabeth Warren as well. Lets start, John Heilemann, trump down six points since last month. Down 11 points among independents. This obviously is having a taking a toll on him. Predictably so. I mean, doesnt diminish it at all. The thing thats dangerous for trump right now is that that is all prior to the stuff thats happened on the democratic side this week. So hes lost those six points have been all selfinflicted sixpoint loss. Now youll see Hillary Clinton get the bump. Thats the loss before the
bump of bernie meeting with obama and obama endorsing hillary and the democrats coming together. And here you have, Donny Deutsch, donald trump down 11 points among independents over the past month. Hes lost 11 points. Still ahead among independents, but a key group for him. Yeah. And hes bleeding support. You have hillary with four horsemen, bill clinton, barack obama, Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. Trump was quiet all week. The quietest since basically the primaries. Hes going to come out monday night. Hes already tipped its going to be this very anticlinton speech. When hes backed in a corner, his modus oprandus is going to get even nastier. Thats going to backfire. I have a prediction. He has never been in the public eye as getting bashed. Hes not used to that. I could actually see him see where this story ends. At some point him bowing out and going home. I dont see him if you look at every president that would be thinskinned. If you look at bob dole, al gore, mitt romney, these people end up getting labeled losers, which they shouldnt. They ran for the highest office in the world. And donald trump, i dont think in his to me, i think at some point, the way this ends you think he might just i think he takes his toys and goes home. Mike barnicle, ive heard other people say that, too. The difference between donald trump and these other guys, when you talk about bob dole or mitt romney or whomever im saying unfairly labelled that way. They were politicians for life. Thats their lifes work. Donald trump has talked about it, joked about it, but somebody very close to trump and the organization said, always remember, always remember its not about politics. Its all about the brand. Its all about his brand is getting beat up. His brand is getting savaged. This last week has been the worst week for the brand. And if it continues, you know, and if he gets branded a monumental loser, who knows what happens. What you do here in this small town big town here in manhattan from various people who know trump, who have had business with trump is that he is acutely sensitive to the brand. Thats the most important aspect of his life, who he is and that he measures every political statement he makes and every political appearance he makes blended in with, is this going to help or hurt the brand. That is his, i think, ultimate downfall. At the end of the day, the level of selfabsorption within donald j. Trump that is there today, was there 30, 40, 50 years ago, it inhibits him from talking about the country. Talking about how he look at Trump University. I mean, Michael Steele, talk
about selfinflicted wounds. Hes down, we can show this poll. Hes down 11 minus 11 over the past month with independe e independents. Down minus 6 with all voters since the last month. And so much has to do with him obsessing over a battle with an indiana judge over Trump University. Not over any issue that matters to americans. Or to republicans. Or to conservatives. Its something that matters to him and him alone. Yeah, joe. I suspect that hell be down another five points by this time next week once, as you guys discuss, the numbers settle in after this week, which has been a phenomenal week for Hillary Clinton and the democratic party. Which, unfortunately, if you had a different nominee or a nominee with a different mindset, not talking about a personal legal matter, but rather talking about the 38,000 jobs from last month, talking about the ig report, talking about, you know, trade and other issues that have
palpable impact on the democratic nominee can i stop you there for a minute, michael. Can you believe the ig report that came out talking about Hillary Clinton playing fast and loose with information regarding drone strikes yep. As top secret as it gets. Yep. Amazing. And we have a republican nominee that hes talking about Trump University. Talking about, yeah. Are you kidding me . That would be dominating the week but for Donald Trumps own selfabsorbed campaign. I adopted the Bernie Sanders line and said, you know, we dont care about your damn university, or damn lawsuit. Talk about the fact that you have these things that are third party indictments against Hillary Clinton and her cozy, you know, assuming the obama agenda on the economy. All right. So the 38,000 jobs are yours. Youre right. You talk about that, michael. Youre exactly right. One of the most abysmal job reports weve had and its responded to by one tweet. Listen, i mean, the campaign is running stupid. There is no campaign. Its running stupid. Theres no campaign i dont even know how to say local politics. I said in my private conversation with him when he was about to win iowa. He said can you believe this . I said, dude, i know you want to win. Do you actually want to be president . Change the subject. He is i am going to say it again. Hes not going to be on that ticket. Weve always been friendly with him. Absolutely radio silence since this judge thing. He cannot be told he is wrong. I will say one is wrong when he is wrong. This is wrong. It shouldnt be done. You should apologize. Like i cant get over it. Im sorry. Thats not his brand. Cant do it. Youre right. Nor than a lot of people. This campaign is going down hill. I predict the next polls are
even worse. This guy this guy is deepsixing his campaign. The republicans who are reaching out to me, also to you oh, my gosh. My phone is going crazy. Just are absolutely stunned. They cant and Chris Christie, walk away. Put down your pens, your barks take your jacket off and walk out of that campaign before you ruin your future. Which kind of hes ruined it already. But he ought to make paul ryan, whats wrong with you . Let me tell you whats wrong with these people . Let me tell you what republicans are yearning for. At least a good number of republicans. One person. Just just one person. Its not paul ryan. Because paul ryan said, im for the racist because hes not hillary. Hes not paul ryan. But just imagine what a Chris Christie standing up saying i got behind this guy because i believe that he understood what working class voters across new
jersey and america, what you can change your mind. What they werent hearing from the republican leader. I get behind for all the right reasons but you know what . He had won fair and square. Hes just not following through on his commitment to me or to the Republican Voters, and i cant its okay to do that. I am just saying, if somebody would do that it would make you talk about a shot in the arm for anybody politically. Joe, if i could just i want to go back to something i think Donny Deutsch said talking about all of these politicians, ryan and others, fearing donald trump. They dont fear donald trump. Donald trump is not the fear factor here. Its his the base of support. Its those 14 million voters that hes brought out. It is how that number of activists, you know, very strong supporters for donald trump respond from between now and the convention and the convention and the election. They havent figured out how to
distance themselves from trump and bring those voters in to Something Different. Maybe another candidate or another way. How about this . Were for you. Were just not for Donald Trumps racist comments. There are formulas that can be used but they dont have the truth . The right thing . Usually works out. Donald trump responded to president obamas endorsement of Hillary Clinton on twitter. Obama just endorsed crooked hillary. He wants four more years of obama but nobody else does. The Clinton Campaign responded, delete your account. A popular internet expression for when someone has said something deeply inaccurate or tone deaf. As of this morning, it has over 375,000 retweets making it clintons most popular tweet yet. Trump later responded, how long did it take for your staff of 823 people to think that up. And where are your 33,000 emails that you deleted. Rnc chairman reince priebus
tweeted at clinton, if anyone knows how to use a delete key, its you. Sean spicer added whichever intern just sent this doesnt get its not smart for you to talk about deleting anything. Kasie hunt, wow. What a zinger on twitter. Ive got to tell you, this would have been a great weak spot for Hillary Clinton. The Campaign Must be so relieved that there is no Trump Campaign that can think beyond Donald Trumps very thin skin and the criticism hes getting about the judge. The Clinton Campaign, i think, could not be in a better place to put it mildly. Think about what we learned yesterday. So Hillary Clinton is going to walk out on the campaign trail. Its going to be her. Its going to be bill clinton. Its going to be president obama. Its going to be joe biden. Elizabeth warren. And at this point its probably also going to be Bernie Sanders. That is a formidable team. And right now theyre up against a Republican Party that, frankly, cant stand behind its current nominee because of the
things he has been saying. So the staff at headquarters yesterday was gathered around a couple of tvs they had there as they watched that video from president obama clapping and cheering. Some of those aides have been with Hillary Clinton for a decade and they remember her crying in front of secret Service Agents when she lost the nomination to barack obama, almost eight years to the day since that actually happened. And now i think it really was a moment and been talking about vp speculation. One clinton aide told me that Elizabeth Warren has proven herself to be an attack dog against donald trump in a way that honestly, they are a little surprised by. They arent ready to engage in more direct reported out vp speculation at this point but she put herself back on the radar in that way. Were talking about tweets going back and forth with tweets instead of a response to the ig report on acting fast and loose with classified information. Its campaign suicide. Abysmal jobs report. Just on terms of cold, hard political analysis and what weve watched, we all agree the republican side is in disarray. There is no Trump Campaign. Think about the political difficulty of what the democratic side had to manage this week. The end of the nominating process. Bernie sanders. Will he fight on to philadelphia. Whats going to in sanders head . What do we have to orchestrate this week. Yesterday, a great kind of delicacy. Bernie sanders is now essentially said yesterday hes not going to fight on to philadelphia. Hes going to eventually endorse Hillary Clinton. Hes going to be on her side. Doesnt take a decoder ring to figure that out based on what he said. They got him out of the race. They got the obama endorsement. You had biden and warren both beating donald trump senseless on Television Last night with
powerful not surgical but powerful attacks that are on message. This is like a professional, high level professional political operation going on in the white house, in conjunction with the brooklyn headquarters of Hillary Clinton. Thats how you run a president ial campaign. And this is the moment of highest vulnerability for the democratic ticket. They executed perfectly, flawlessly all week long while on the other side this state of complete disarray. And a response to all of that with a tweet. With a tweet. And theres one added ingredient to this that flew under the radar yesterday because of the nature of the endorsement from the president. But i am told, ive been told by several people within the white house, do not underestimate Barack Obamas eagerness to crush donald trump. Not defeat him. Crush him. Off of partially the birth certificate flap. Its personal. Yes. Its deeply personal about maintaining his legacy. He knows whats at stake but also its really personal. In obamas mind, trump represents everything thats all of the darkness hes confronted over the last eight years because hes the most prominent exponent and voice for the birther thing. He wants he is going to be aggressive. And not only that, even though i would not be in this approval category. Barack obama is, politically, a giant. Right now. For sure. Among very small politicians on both sides. Still ahead on morning joe, the headline is republicans see trump as a racist they can work with. Ouch. Thats great. Well talk about margaret carlsons provocative new piece in bloomberg view. And david letter man on who he wanted to see fill his desk after his retirement. Real is touching a ray.

Donald trumps business tactics are under new scrutiny as an investigation by usa
today reports hundreds in business who accuse trump of not paying everything they were owed. Its raising questions about trumps history of dealing with the little guy. Joining us with more from washington, nbc news correspondent Hallie Jackson. Youve been Digging Deeper into these accusations. Good morning. We had a chance to talk with a couple of these folks who back in the 80s were stiffed by Donald Trumps companies talking now, coming out and speaking publicly. One of them because he says his father who he claims lost his business would be embarrassed to see donald trump running for president right now. Some powerful stories and i want you to take a look. At harrahs casino in trump plaza hotel, the original slot machines sat on bases built by the friels who won a contract for the construction in the 80s but lost more than 80,000 in the process. Paul friel says they just never got paid in full. It absolutely was the
beginning of the end. Reporter five years after finishing the work, the Family Business out of business. It hurt right up until the end when my father died nine years ago. He talked about it a lot. He was not proud to have been involved with donald trump. Reporter donald trump often points to his business skills as proof he can make America Great again. But a new analysis of those business dealings shows friel is not alone. A special report discovering at least 60 lawsuits, plus hundreds of other liens and judgments over the last three decades from people who say trump and his businesses stiffed them. Not just some of trumps own lawyers, but a dishwasher, a plumber, waiters and bartenders. Lots of who you might call little guys. People like michael deal. Back in the 80s he delivered to trump taj mahal 100,000 worth of grand pianos but only received 70,000 when the Company Refused to pay all of what it owed him. Anybody running a small
business, as an independent business person, thats a lot of money. It hurt. It was hard to get over. Reporter but the candidate and his daughter argue to usa today its unfair to point to these instances of unpaid bills that its blown out of proportion. Paling in comparison to the thousands of checks Trump Companies cut each month. I have a great history of paying my bills on time. Youre right, if someone does a poor job, im not the quickest payer. Reporter but for paul friel, even after the Trump Organization told his dad they did inferior work, he did more of it. If my fathers work was really inferior, then why would the Trump Organization want him to work for the Trump Organization in the future . Reporter so the Trump Campaign directed us to statements from both trump and his daughter ivanka in usa today when we reached out to them for comment on all of this. You heard it there in the piece. Trump makes the point these cases happened long ago. Ivanka said it would be irresponsible if her father continued to pay contractors for work he simply didnt like. Trump himself adding that that is the kind of attitude the country should have. Guys . Hallie jackson, thank you. Joining us now, columnist for bloomberg view, margaret carlson. You write in bloomberg view, republicans see trump as a racist they can work with. And you write in part this. Paul ryan and others are operating under the delusion that given little time, the sun will come out tomorrow with a combination of denial and some magical thinking. Republican officials were thrilled when trump deigned to read from a telerompter at his victory speech at his New York Country Club on tuesday as if he were a toddler who finally agreed to try spinach. Only senators mark kirk and Lindsey Graham are in the hes a racist, im not endorsing him. The collaborationists are in too
deep. What with the date for nuptials set, the ball room rented and invitations sent, the groom has just the groom just has to avoid being racist. Who cares that the marriage isnt for love, only convenience. At this point, the only chance of winning the white house is to go through with it. Theyll worry about President Trump tomorrow. Thats day trading. And i just dont know. Weve been talking about this for a couple of days now. I just dont understand why nobody on the side of this whole judge thing, meaning republicans who continue to endorse trump even though they think its bad, or trump himself dont see the Campaign Collapsing before their eyes. I dont understand. Just the way they say it is inkong ruous. Remember sesame street one of these things doesnt belong here . Donald trump is a racist. I support him. Theres not a way to do it. Paul ryan is the most disappointing because we actually think he believes in something, and he thinks hes jack kemp. I know. Hes not jack kemp. The idea to Mitch Mcconnell pulled back the curtain and said if hed only stay on script, revealing theres a script that can hide this that other politicians follow. Do you remember todd akin. He did fine in this carefully sculpted congressional district. But then he runs for senate, and he forgets or doesnt have the script and says theres legitimate rape. You cant get pregnant and then loses the election. There is a script to hide, and i hate to use the word racism. There arent that many racists in the party, but to hide views that will lose them votes. But they want to solidify the base. And donald trump doesnt want to get rid of this one. I watch Hallie Jackson. Think about it. We all have people in our families, or at least i do, full of little guys who would have been duped by trump. Who would have gone to the infomercial at Trump University. If you read those depositions, there are hundreds of those people that you just showed who got gypped. Well, same with some republicans in washington. They are getting gypped. They are getting scammed. If donald trump cant even say, wow, okay, i realize these comments sounded racist, that is not what i meant. That would have come down to the base or the new voters that the party cant alienate. They cant lose those unless theyre going to get others, and theyre not going to get the people that have been so demeaned by trump. So they have to hold on to that base that in the polls shows they dont think hes a racist. They dont mind the muslim ban. They love the wall. Predict his poll numbers are
going to go down after this. Its not just about racism. He lied. Doubled down and pretended he didnt say it, that he was misconstrued. Lets get the jake tapper sound bite just for fun for kicks. Lets play it in the next block. I mean, he says he just keeps saying it. He cant help himself. Now he wants to pretend it isnt there. I dont think americans, no matter what their feelings are in terms of base politics, i dont think they like that. You cant trust that. At the moment, the Republican Party is clinging to that. Otherwise otherwise, they wouldnt say hes a racist. Im supporting him. Were going to see our first woman president then. Margaret, stay with us.

hmmmmm. M. [ dreams by beck ] hmmmmm. The turbocharged dream machine. The Volkswagen Golf gti. Named one of car and drivers 10best, 10 years in a row. No, i dont. And its interesting. I thought for sure i would. And then the first day of stephens show, when he went on the air, an energy left me, and
i felt like, its not my problem anymore. And ive kind of felt that way ever since. I devoted so much time to the damage of other aspects of my life. The concentrated, fixated, focussing on that. Its good to not have that. I couldnt care less about late night television. Im happy for the guys, men and women. There should be more women. And i dont know why they didnt give my show to a woman. That would have been fine. Im happy for their success, and theyre doing things i couldnt do. Thats great. Do they ask you about who should replace you . Oh, no. They didnt ask me about anything. They were just happy i was go g going. David letterman speaking exclusively with tom brokaw about one year since retiring from late night tv. N tom joins us now. Fun assignment. Is it really a fun assignment . It was great. Two friends. I proposed this to him about five months ago. When you get ready to come out, i think the indy 500 is a great place to do it. So i met him out there. Got there on a friday night and stayed through sunday night. And it really was back home in indiana for dave. He feels strongly attached to the city, to growing up there. The values he learned there. He started in radio and television. Now a part owner of an indy 500 team which is a big passion of his. So we went to his home, his high school. Wow. The old burger joint where hed hang out. He described how a bully one day beat him up. I said for no good reason . He said there must have been a reason i just dont know what it was. Then we got to talking about this year. You have Bernie Sanders and hillary and donald trump. Dont you miss being on the air . We had a Little Exchange about the Political Climate these days. Youre not on the air during one of the wackiest, potentially dislocating election years of our lifetime. Donald trump, hillary, Bernie Sanders. Are there times you kind of say, i would like to be on tonight talking about that. I understand hes repugnant to people, but you tell me the men putting together the constitution witnessing this election, wouldnt they have just said, thats part of the way we set it up. Good luck. Youre absolutely right. He didnt cheat by getting the nomination. Theres nothing illegal going on. Hes despuk abidespicable. You hear great things about americans, anybody who grew up to be president. I guess might be true. You have known him longer than any of us here at the table have known him. He seems comfortable with himself, at peace with himself. What was your reaction to him . Do you think he is absolutely. First of all, he is devoted to his son harry and wishes theyd
started the whole process producing a child earlier. Id like harry to have a brother or sister but its too late for that. And they have a childs fantasy life. A ranch in montana. They go to the caribbean in the wintertime. Sounds like you. Come on. They go skiing. I did help him get the ranch in montana. He called me one day. I said where are you . He said im in wyoming. I said what are you doing . Youre always talking about how great it is but i cant find anything that fits. I said come to montana and i steered him around. He bought a ranch in the northern part of the state. A big, big place on the edge of the wilderness. But he rides horses. Hes become a really good horseman. He bought some more property. Hes become a fly fishman and harry is at his side. Thats quite touching to see that that brings him the peace of mind in his life as well. How a person retires is so indicative of mental health. If you can give up that center
and then find happiness. I do miss, however, top ten reasons not to vote for donald trump. I know. He was a master of what he did. And i must say that tom hanks, marty short and that crowd are in awe of him. They were his friends, but theyd also say, hes a reverential figure for us. Theres nobody better. When you went on the show, you had to be at the top of your game. They would preinterview. Hed throw it out immediately and just keep it coming. Very bright guy. Natively bright and interested in whats going on in the world. We also went to his high school. It was a College Prep High school until he flunked algebra and they said maybe not. They sent him to a Public Speaking class and that began to transform what i wanted to do with my life. His friends always remember he was a prankster. Always something going on of some kind. When you see him back home in indiana, it really is it
really is who he is all about. Wow. You can see the full interview on nbcs on assignment this sunday at 7 00 eastern. Also at 10 00 p. M. Pacific, tom brokaw looks amazing. Stay with us. We want to get your reaction to this. Good evening. O. J. Simpson remains a fugitive from justice tonight. His whereabouts and his condition unknown. Tonight, his lawyer shared with the public what he called a suicide note written by simpson shortly after he was informed hed be charged with two counts of murder in the death of his wife and a young man with her at the time. The director of the new 30 for 30 documentary on o. J. Simpson joins us. Its pretty clear why it blew away crowds at sundance. Keep it right here on morning joe. Real is touching a ray. Amazing is moving like one. Real is making new friends. Amazing is getting this close. Real is an animal rescue. Amazing is over twentyseven thousand of them. There is only onplace where real a amazing live. Seaworld. Re. Amazing
called me and said ive got some information. I need to get a search warrant. I need you to tell me if it sounds okay. He just summarized the evidence. And it was huge. Okay. Yeah. Go ahead. Get the search warrant. Youre fine. And he said you know who it is. Its o. J. Simpson. O. J. Simpson . I was never into sports so i didnt even know what game he played. I thought he was a hasbeen. Monday afternoon came around. Simpson came back from chicago, and they handcuff him. It was quite surprising. Your exhusband is always a suspect in a case. Okay. Wow. Here we go. Wow. That was a look at o. J. Made in america, the new 30 for 30 documentary. Hello. Joe is here. Barnicle is here. Made by espn films. It goes far beyond the iconic murder trial exploring the role of race and celebrity in the 20th century america. Joining us, the director of the film, ezra edelman. Very good to have you on board with us this morning. There are some revelations in this documentary. Are there . I dont know. The fact is this has been a pretty reported story at the time and since then. I think there are new
perspectives. There are people that havent done interviewed in 20 years. Many that people havent seen. In that way there are revelations. The only thing thats really different is how everything is put together. I think that most of the time whether you lived through the trial or have seen things since then you see an hour and a half thing about the trial. But this has three hours before you even get to the murders. Why is this the year of o. J. . People versus o. J. , now this. Its total coincidence. I had no idea that was in the works when we started doing this. Really . Absolutely not. I think no one would have decided to do a tenhour for television thing if they knew someone was doing ten hours on the same subject. They are both incredibly riveting. Its more than just a trial. Lets accurately frame that up. Its more than just the trial. You get to the nature of who o. J. Was in the 20th century and who he became through the trial and still remains in our minds. But one of the revelations in the film, among several, gets to
one of the most famous quotes from the trial that people still remember. If the glove doesnt fit. Tell us thats vignette. If the glove doesnt fit, you must acquit. Theres a sense this is something that Johnnie Cochran came up with on the spot and it really was jerry olman, an a relatively unknown member of the defense team who came up with that during a weekend Conference Call just on the fly. And it ended up with Seven Members of the defense highfiving each other. Why didnt the glove fit, one of the reasons . Theres a mike gilbert who is for 15 years and was really with him through the trial and beyond, he tells a story about, you know, suggesting to o. J. That, well, o. J. Was a little trepedatius. He said dont take your arthritis medicine for a few weeks. Hands would swell up, gloves might not fit. Didnt take his arthritis
medicine for a few weeks. What . I was there at the beginning of when o. J. Was playing at sc when i was living out there and i knew also the extraordinary divisions in the culture in los angeles. Elevating o. J. Su jmpj. Simpson which was an allwhite temple at the time. Im interested in what youve done here on the dna of Southern California, california altogether. I remember when he was getting ready to graduate, a big southern cal booster, a very prominent agent. O. J. , tell me about your friends from your childhood. I dont have any. What do you mean . Theyre all dead. They all died in gang banging and riots or whatever up there. And that gave me more insight into who he was and how he went through his life knowing that it was kind of perilous. And the other thing that comes out as well is Johnnie Cochrans idea to go out to the mansion
and change all of the art which was all kind of modern white art and make it very africana. So i was at the end of the trial, the closing days and martha was deep into the dna piece of it. Very complicated. I looked at the jurors, and they were writing notes to each other, doing their nails. They werent paying any attention. I came back and said, i think this one is over. I think theyre going to make a race decision. We talked about o. J. Growing up and adopting the white culture in los angeles. Choosing to do that. Well, its what tom just said which is fascinating is what happens when a kid who grew up in the projects ends up in this white temple that was usc. And thats really where he was cultrated as a young adult and came to national prominence. For me, a question is, how do you go from two years at an institution and then before you played down in the nfl youre on National Television hocking
chevrolet and rc cola. That transformation, was it people liked and other powerful alumni who saw potential in him . O. J. Had this yearning for fame from the time he was a young boy. It wasnt money that he wanted. It was fame. You point out he wanted fame. He was very clear about that in interviews. The movie is brilliant about l. A. , about the history of the police and race in l. A. Just explain how it is that one of the things that it does so well is to explain how o. J. Simpson could be guilty but the verdict could still on some level be justice. Yeah, when you go through this story and you really look at this history and look at the series of injustices in the court system at the hands of the lapdn then see first of all why people invest in the trial the way they invested but then look at what happened during the trial and you have a policeman, one of the main cops in the case who found the bloody glove who
was proven to have purgered himself during the trial. Is that grounds for reasonable doubt . You see the way police handled evidence. You see the demonstration with the glove and you theres a reasonable case to say, i believe he was guilty, but i think you can watch this and say i understand why he was ark q t acquitted. The first part of o. J. made in america airs saturday on abc and the final parts air on espn. Not a slow minute. Whats a week. Have a great weekend, everyone.
