Friend and Naval Academy classmate chuck larson. The ceremony is the conclusion to an extraordinary week of mourning and celebration, including eulogies from two former president s at the National Cathedral yesterday. Perhaps just as notable, the fact that the sitting president was not in attendance at mccains request. It may have been a thinly veiled shot from Meghan Mccain that caught President Trumps attention. America does not boast because she has no need to. The america of john mccain has no need to be made great again because america was always great. [ applause ] among a flurry of tweets sent out by the president during the Mccain Service was this one shortly after Meghan Mccains eulogy. It reads in all caps, make America Great again. Lets go to annapolis. Hans nichols is there. And we were seeing some pictures earlier, hans, of the motorcade making its way to your location there. And really a capstone here, isnt it, that this is a military man, this is a veteran who went through an experience that shaped his entire life all the way to the end. Reporter richard, in john mccains words, he is coming back to where it all began. This is annapolis, an academy, a place he resented, at times reject the, but it gave him the mental fortitude for a lifetime of service, but also his years in captivity. You know, when he was here he was a rebel. His nickname was john wayne mccain. He was fast to a party, first to a fight, known for poker playing skills. It was that discipline, it was that since of country and honor that was really formed here. Now, behind me you are seeing here a lot of wellwishers. These people, some will be going inside. Most of them just want to get a glimpse of the man. The man that so meant so much to this community and to the entire naval family throughout the town. There are flags draped throughout. You really get a sense that this was a place that john mccain thought of as one of his homes. Its where he ultimately wanted to come back to. Now, Meghan Mccain, as you mentioned, she was vo sifrerous in that funeral, giving that public eulogy. But Lindsey Graham, who will be speaking here, part of the eulogyists here today, he was asked about Meghan Mccains comments. Here is how he responded. If you Say Something bad about meghans father, you will know it. She didnt like it. So its okay. She is grieving. You think there is a lesson for President Trump . There is a lesson here for everybody, including President Trump. Everybody makes mistakes. Those who admit it are seen by the public as bigger, not smaller. Know what you are talking about, fight hard, forgive. Reporter now, among the pallbearers for the former senator from arizona, you have jim mattis, sons, grandsons, you have classmates, youll have fellow navy aviators. For john mccain, class of 58, he is coming home. Hans nichols, thank you so much. There in annapolis where the service, we believe, is ongoing t at this hour as he is laid to rest there. Thank you so much. Joining us now with reflections on the life of senator mccain and the Memorial Services held in his honor, jeff bennett and retired fourstar general, barry mccaffrey. Jeff, when we were talking yesterday we were reflecting on the words being said during the services for john mccain. And how potentially there was a new unity being put together. Reflect on the messages that came from yesterday and what that means for today as we are at the final day of remembrances of senator john mccain. Yeah, richard. Senator mccain is finally laid to rest. I think its becoming clear to all of us that he leaves a void in our politics that has not and likely will not be filled. I think its worth noting that at the services both on friday at the Capitol Rotunda and yesterday at the National Cathedral you had on hand there congressional leaders from both parties. There were a handful of representatives from the administration who all heard this repeated call from a number of people who, in their own way, each called on us to be better in our politics. To really cling to decency and duty, even when we have political disagreements. And the question that we come to now is, is what happens next . Will to make a difference . I am no cynic, but i would suggest maybe it wont in part because of the things that incentivize politicians to be partisan, those things have not changed yet. I think we might get a first glimpse of the dynamic when we have the Senate Hearings for the Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh set to kick off on tuesday. At the moment there is all these lingering questions about whether or not anyone who was on hand and heard the repeated calls will internallize that. We know based on the president s tweet he apparently saw Meghan Mccains speech and really snapped back at her. General, we were talking about hans nichols there at annapolis. In our discussion the note of where he began is where he finishes, right, general . There in annapolis. And really the headline here, and there are many to be read here, is that senator john mccain was a military man and, as i said earlier, proud of that history, and he lived it. Well, no question. Im delighted that hans nichols is there. Annapolis, the city, its just beautiful. The Naval Academy is a special place. Its obviously important to the mccain family and, for that matter, to the armed forces to see him go home. And by the way, he is lying in rest next to another officer i dealt with for years, admiral chuck larson, a brilliant man. Conscientious. You know, we noted mccain was the fifth in the bob muellbotto class. Chuck larson was nearly the number one graduate. The two were lifelong friends. Both navel aviator. Of course, mccain got shot down on his 23rd combat mission over North Vietnam and brutalized for more than five years. Look, one comment i think deserves to be made. This past week set aside politics. Set aside policy. Just talk about character. And we have ended up with what almost is a shakespearean epic play of mccain versus trump, even when trumps name wasnt being used. It was almost inescapable. I think it is an important opportunity to learn from mccains lifetime of service and humility and courage. Thats the important aspect, i think, of this whole mccain memorial week. And how they will Work Together Going Forward, those who work so close with senator john mccain. I will go to Meghan Mccain on a her instagram. She is standing in between what is now the two amigos, and what she says, my uncles forever, we love you so much, dad. Of course, thats Joe Lieberman there and Lindsey Graham, two folks that senator john mccain worked so closely together with, jeff, over the years. And that difficulty now of those two moving forward, Lindsey Graham speaking this hour, we believe, there in annapolis. How are the two amigos going to Work Together now, jeff . Its a great question. I think its also worth pointing out that its almost remarkable how people look at images like that and cling to it. There was another image, a cutaway shot yesterday in the Memorial Service where laura bush took a piece of gum or candy from her purse and handed it to former president bush and he handed it to michelle obama. Just that clip of video got retweeted thousands of times because people were just clinging to this open affection between this republican president and this democratic president. It really speaks to what we are missing in our current political climate. So that picture, the interaction yesterday, it certainly is something want to see more of. You know, as we continue to remember john mccain and the services that are ongoing at this hour, the final services, general, you were talking about just a moment ago, you call it shakesperian. Some of us said, you know, this was the final message from senator john mccain yesterday, right . But told through other voices. Voices that he chose. Voices that not are often sitting next to each other. What do you think his final message was that he is trying to get through . Many have said, as i started the segment with, Work Together, collaborate. Yeah. I think so. And look, by the way, im very optimistic about the country. There is nothing wrong with the american people. 85 of the congressmen i have worked with over time are people of integrity and character and principle. I dont think we are in trouble. We are going through a difficult period, but certainly mccains message, im not sure he was a very good politician. He was a magnificent statesman who was a magnificent fighter, a great human being to be engaged with. So at the end of the day mccains lesson is service and character and commitment and a sense of humility, all of which have been sadly lacking, many have argued in the last couple of years. And, jeff, sadly missing, we were looking at some of the pictures from yesterday there in the cathedral. The words used to describe all those at the National Cathedral, elite was part of it. The most powerful. And some might say, well, that is exactly what, during the last election, folks did not want anymore. So on the flip side to a new unity, is it the old unity, and were the messages being given, the idea that some of that could be new, jeff . Its certainly the case. I think if you look at the text of former president bushs and former president obamas speeches, the through line was a call towards a better politics. They got at it in different ways. So did Meghan Mccain. She was more emphatic and a little less oblique. But again one of the things im looking ahead to this coming week is to see it there is any discernible change here at the white house and on the other end of pennsylvania avenue, capitol hill, to see if these people who talk about renaming the Russell Senate Office Building in senator mccains honor, who have spoken so highly of him this past week, if they will take to heart the things he wanted us to hold true. I want to play a little bit of sound from senator dan sullivan, republican from alaska, on meet the press. This on reflection of what happened over this weekend. Lets take a listen. We know there has been tension between them. I would say that the Trump Administration overall was very engaged. You had an important speech that the president , Vice President gave at the ceremony laying in state in the dome. Yesterday, there was a number of folks from the administration kind of glossed over it. Why . He is the president of the united states. It was what im trying chuck, im not trying to gloss over it. This week though has been all about john mccain and the unity of his vision of courage, of patriotism, of freedom, of service before self. And i think thats the lesson that we should take away from the week. So, general, the lesson for the week being that there is unity, but the president was not there, as was mentioned earlier. I did mention as well the tweet that was put out by the president. We did have Jared Kushner and ivanka trump at the ceremony, too. How would you react to senator dan sullivan . He is just trying to put look, i watched general kelly. I have been telling people, kelly is one of the finest men i have met in my entire life i was there. I was wondering what he was thinking the entire time. Actually, i think it was good what do you think he was thinking, general . Well, i think he admired and was as of one in service with a man like mccain. Now he is trying to do the best he can for the country dealing with a president that just in his behavior this week exemplified pettiness and shallowness. I mean, going off golfing right in the middle of the service. I think the week drove President Trump crazy. Its a dreadful situation. And i dont seem nothing as jeff mentioned, i dont think much is going to change in the politics until the midterm elections are over. Maybe then there will be some sanity and pragmatism come back to the congress of the united states. All right. Thank you so much. Retired general barry mccaffrey, jeff bennett there at the white house. Thank you so much as we are talking about senator john mccain and the Ongoing Services in annapolis. I want to bring in msnbc senior politics editor beth fuey. It is a sunday. Yesterdays service at the National Cathedral had many religious elements. Todays service as well. Just looking through the nine or ten items that has just begun there in annapolis, it includes hymns and readings of scripture. And what folks may not know about senator john mccain is he was very faithful to his faith. Why did he not talk about it often . Why are we only being exposed to it this weekend . Yeah. The notoriety that senator mccain had in the heyday of his career, he worshiped at the church of meet the press. He was on public shows probably more. It would go on for hours, right . Exactly. He definitely prioritized that for sunday morning. You know what . That doesnt mean he wasnt faithful. What we have learned through this process, the Church Services that he put together. He personally supervised the planning of that North Phoenix Baptist Church earlier in the week, the National Cathedral yesterday, today over in annapolis. Very religious. And he brought in prayers personal to him, things to that he cared about as a military man. He had pretty protestant hymns. Thats an episcopal bunch. He h church. He had been at a baptist church. Cindy mccain apparently brought him back to faith. He was in the hanoi hilton for five years. How does that not bring you back to faith without hate, without rancor, by appealing to a higher being . One of the readings today that is happening there in annapolis, and we are showing some pictures of him, his body arriving there, is Osama Bin Laden s p psalm 107 23. These see the works of the lord and his wonders in the deep for he commandth and raises the stormy wind which lift up the waves thereof. Again, very much showing the idea of who he is, working through stormy times. That passage alluding to it. The sense of him as a naval officer. Yes, obviously. And the boats, the ships, the finding their way through rough choppy water. Thats him as the mann and military man. One thing about his faith, beth, he did not want to talk about it because he was worried about it being seen as leverage politically. Right. Think about where we have gone with politics over the last many years. The Republican Party has been identified with the evangelical faith, people thinking people more devoutly christian are going to be republicans. That, of course, is probably not the case, thats what we have come to see or believe over time. That is not the case for lots of people. Lots of people are democrats and faithful and republicans perhaps less so. He didnt want to promote this as Something Like look at me, i am a religious guy, im fitting, you know, what you think a president ial candidate of the Republican Party is supposed to be. It was something that sustained him privately, that he cared about, that he embarked upon as a man and as a father and then when it came time when he knew that he was going to probably lose his battle with this terrible cancer he could put together the kind of sendoff that he wanted that involved those religious traditions. He had chosen these hymns, these passages, because he was thinking about this as you are telling us. Beth, you spent time with him . I did. On the campaign trail in 08. This is something you saw face it to face. How did he talk about it . He didnt much, but you could tell that it was part of him. He was a very complex man, as everybody has said for the last several days. He had a very salty mouth, very, very quick to anger, things that you might not automatically associate with about being religious. He had an other side that sort of helped him conquer the everyday issues he was dealing with all the time. Okay. And there we have that picture with you. Where are you . I am to the right with the bright pink vest on. Takes you back. That was election day 2008. Straight talk express back in the day. Yes. Thank you for discussing this, beth, a part of senator john mccain that not many know of, but appropriate on this sunday, especially given Services Ongoing right now. Coming up, its being dubbed the friday night document massacre. President trump refusing to release more than 100,000 pages of Brett Kavanaughs white house record and its raising more questions on the eve of his Supreme Court hearings. Im really into this car, but how do i know if im getting a good deal . I tell truecar my zip and which car i want and truecar shows the range of prices people in my area actually paid for the same car so i know if im getting a great price. This is how car buying was always meant to be. This is truecar. Each of us is different. And each cancer is different. How it reacts, how it evades and adapts. And how we attack it. Thats why at Cancer Treatment centers of america, we use diagnostic tools that help us better understand what drives each persons cancer. This is what we mean by outsmarting cancer. And for some, it may uncover more effective treatment options. Like christine bray. After battling Ovarian Cancer for several years, her test results revealed a potential treatment not considered previously a drug therapy that targeted her tumor. Today, christines metastatic cancer is in remission. This is precision Cancer Treatment. Because at Cancer Treatment centers of america. Were not just fighting cancer. Were outsmarting it. Visit cancercenter. Com and schedule an appointment with our cancer care specialists today. It is the eve of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaughs confirmation hearing. The white house will hold back 100,000 pages of documents. Thats what were hearing so far, relating to his legal work during the time in the Bush White House. The president is invoking president privilege, leaving many on capitol hill fuming specifically in the senate. Joining me now, White House Reporter at the daily beast. Tiffany cross, cofounder and managing editor of the beat d. C. Dave lawler, Deputy Editor at axios. So, oswan, what is now going to be crucial to these documents that are being withheld if anything, because the question has been, what is in it that might shed some light on who Brett Kavanaugh is that isnt already known . Well, sure. And what democrats and many others want to know is, in these documents, among several other factors, how much of it will reveal a Brett Kavanaugh to have been perhaps, to put it in an ungenerous term, a partisan hack during his time in the senior ranks in the Bush White House. With this particular administration, it isnt that much of a surprise they are doing this much blocking and tackling with thousands upon thousands of pages of documents because thats the modus operandi of the Trump Administration. To restrict as much transparency as possible. And it comes as no surprise to people who have been covering this white house this is the tact they are taking, even though george w. Bushs lawyer recommended transparency on this front. Tiffany, i want to play a little bit of sound here from a democratic senator amy klobuchar. She was earlier on meet the press, and this is how she discussed these documents. Take a listen. Its not normal because we are not able to see 100,000 documents that the archivists, because the administration has said we cant see them . They have exerted their executive power. What you have seen in these papers that we have not seen, it actually raises doubts in your mind about kavanaughs ability to be a fair justice . It would strongly bolter the arguments. The counterargument is, well, again, being a white house counsel, you gets all sorts of documents. Therefore, there is just a larger am independent. Well, i want to remind the viewers its easy to forget what controversies were happening during the bush administration. The staff secretary position to a president is important with a lot of influence over politics and policy. You have to remember what was going on. You had the fallout from katrina, input from nominees and the post9 11 policies of terror suspects. All of these things kavanaugh said the three years he served in this position were hugely informative on his development of a judge. So to take the unprecedented step of claiming president ial privilege, which by the way president obama did not do during the elaine kagan hearings, is something that yet again highlights the hypocrisy of the gop at this time. Its easy love lay the blame at Donald Trumps feet, but we also have to look at Mitch Mcconnell who killed the filibuster. Cluck grassley held up nimbus nominees during the obama administration. Senators are going to go into confirmation hearings on tuesday with a huge gap in information and the consequence is a huge level of lack of knowledge for the american people. Dave, one of the krcriticism of kavanaugh he has supported, that is the criticism, a strong executive branch. What is the background to that criticism . Some of the background is that he has shifted on this topic. He was involved in the impeachment investigation against bill clinton. At that point he wanted to take a hard line on the president , that the president should be held to a high standard. That changed after working in the Bush White House. He started to believe that president s face so much day to day, that they shouldnt have to fear, you know, scrutiny on legal matters. And another thing to keep in mind here is that the math is narrowly in the republicans favor. So you are probably going to need a bombshell to shake up this confirmation process. If you are looking for a bombshell, where better to look from the papers than his time in the Bush White House . But we wont be seeing many of them. Very quickly, i want to ask all three of you the same questions. Lindsey graham said 55 he thinks is the number here to get kavanaugh through. Do you think its 55, and which democrats very quickly . No idea. I dont really want to put any predictions on this. Lower than 50, but definitely passes. Tiffany, Something Like dean heller out of nevada who is in a very tight race . I am not sure if its dean heller. I dont want to fall into the same trap of Charlie Brown kicking the football where everybody feels like Susan Collins is coming around, oh, no she didnt again. I think its a narrow path for democrats to be able to stop this. Dave, quick reelection . I think i would be surprised if he didnt move ahead, if any of the republicans jump ship. I dont want to be held to that. Okay. A little shy right now. Thats okay. We will get you next time on those predictions. I definitely respect your views on that. Thank you so much all three of you. Just ahead for you, a former cia chief says an obstruction of justice case could come in the russia probe. How is the white house bracing for that . That as we learn more about a secret doj plan to flip russian oligarchs. N to flip russian oligarchs. Gonna be late hold on, dont worry, theres another way [siri beep beepa] directions to the greek theater. Can i get a connection . Can i get can i get a connection .

And if you get lost, just hit me on the old horn. Man toms my best friend, but ever since he bought a new house. Tom its a 10 cover . Oh, okay. Didnt see that on the website. Hes been acting more and more like his dad. Come on, guys jump in the waters fine tom pritchard. How we doin . Hi, there. Tom pritchard. Can we get a round of jalapeno poppers for me and the boys, please . Ive been saving a lot of money with progressive lately, so. Progressive cant protect you from becoming your parents. But we can protect your home and auto when you bundle with us. An explosive story on the front page of the New York Times today detailing how bruce ohr worked with the fbi and doj on a secret program to flip russian oligarchs. We are days away from knowing George Papadopouloss fate. Attorneys filed new Court Documents just friday late, and they are asking for leniency in his sentencing. And in that request this. Quote, while some in the room rebuffed georges offer, mr. Trump nodded with approval and deferred to mr. Sessions who appeared to like the idea and stated that the campaign should look into it. This related to a potential meeting with russian officials. But sessions told a different story under oath last year. Papadopoulos, he talked about, its reported in the paper, that he said something about going to russia and dealing with the russians, and i pushed back and said, you shouldnt do it. Lets bring in former federal prosecutor cynthia oxney, former u. S. Assistant attorney, julia sorensen. Julia, lets focus on that one sentence, right . That came out in fridays filing in the request for more leniency on the sentence. What do you make of that . Thats completely different than what Jeff Sessions had said, as you saw, under congressional oath. It does appear to be a direct contradiction of what attorney general sessions has said under oath. I would only caution that at this point mr. Papadopoulos lawyers are acting with the best interest of their client, who is facing a sentencing hearing this coming week. It seems to me that they are offering this up in an effort to persuade the judge that mr. Papadopoulos has indeed provided significant information in this investigation and, therefore, should be rewarded with a more lenient sentence. Cynthia, going back to this again, alluding to the potential of a meeting with russians in the Trump Campaign, again ill read it, while some in the room rebuffed georges offer, mr. Trump nodded with approval and deferred to mr. Sessions who appeared to like the idea as well. What does this mean, cynthia, in terms of what sort of legal jeopardy that both donald trump and Jeff Sessions could face . Well, mr. Papadopoulos is an admitted liar and a convicted liar. No case against sessions and trump will rest on shoulders of george papadopoulos. I would agree they are trying to make him more important than he is for purposes of the sentencing. Remember there is somebody who was in the room at the time of that meeting who says sessions did push back. So i dont think this is going to be a big hinge in Going Forward in the mueller investigation. Okay. Lets get to the other developing story on the front page of the New York Times. This is fbi doj working to try to flip russian oligarchs. Again, allegedly very close to the power structure there in russia. The followon question, julia, is why would they want to flip . If they were able to flip, would this lead then to information that might have been vrelevant o the question of working with russians in the Trump Campaign . Well, the answer appears to be yes. That is to say, that is what the fbi may have been looking for in their outreach to oligarchs, including mr. Darapeska about a range of topics, including efforts to influence the u. S. President ial campaign. That said, based on todays story, those efforts appear to have been unsuccessful. Nevertheless, very interesting i think for those who are reading the article to see that there were efforts to reach oligarchs, the most wealthy there in russia. Right. What concerns me about this is that the leaks about this attempted effort to flip tara pass ka and our attempts within the Russian Federation to get more information, that really hurts future Law Enforcement efforts and it strengthens putins hand. I think its a mistake long term, along with many other mistakes, to divulge this information. The only reason they did it is because they are going after bruce ohr, who is a career Public Servant and knows a lot about the russian mafia. They are afraid of him, which is why they are attacking him. Long term it hurts our country, one more thing that the Trump Administration is doing. Thank you so much.

But prevagen helps your brain with an ingredient originally discovered. In jellyfish. In clinical trials, prevagen has been shown to improve shortterm memory. Prevagen. Healthier brain. Better life. Tomorrow is labor day, and for all of you political junkies out there you know that marks the final start to the sprint to the midterm elections. We are now just ten weeks away from the november 6th voting day. We are watching a couple of key races. In texas, senator ted cruz trying to maintain his seat in a closer than expected race against bet ohio roarke. Florida also being watched. The Bernie Sanders tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum taking on trumpbacked ron desantis. Joining me now Donna Edwards and Brian Darling and former staffer for senator rand paul. So one of the interesting numbers here, as we officially, if you will, get started to the final stretch here, congresswoman, is some of the numbers. On meet the press today during the Data Download something that caught my eye was the number of seats that were competitive. You may have seen this, too. On the democratic side, five are competitive in terms of democratically held seats. On the republican side, 65, congresswoman. Wow. Yes. I did see those numbers. And what that says to me is that, one, we have got a lot of democratic enthusiasm out there. Districts that shouldnt be competitive, in fact are competitive. And i think that what were learning is that in an offcycle election, its always tough for the party thats in power, the party that holds the white house. This year its doubly tough, and i think democrats are going to, you know, november 6th marks a time where from now until then democrats are going to run on the issues that are concerning the american people, and i think it bodes well for them. Is this a fundraising issue here, brian . I think it does hurt fundraising. You look at the averages. Look at history. The party in power usually loses seats because of the midterm elections. What happens in the midterm elections, the average is 34 seats in the house. Two seats in the senate. If that holds true, republicans lose control of both chambers. But one of the big problems democrats are having is in the senate. The senate where you have ten democrats defending in seats where trump won. Five of those seats where trump won by more than ten points. So it looks like republicans are going to have a really hard time raising money and winning in the house. But they may have a, republicans may have a lot more success in the senate by virtue of the amount of democrat seats that are contested. The midterm primary fundraising for democrats, they are above republicans by about a third, roughly that number at the moment. So, brian and congresswoman, you are right on the money in terms of your thoughts there. One of the challenges for the democratic side though has been what is the voice . Right . What is the voice from the left. And congresswoman, when we see betto orourke, Andrew Gillum, both running on progressive platforms and messages in very important states, large states, we are talking about florida and texas, has the left found its voice . Well, it isnt so much that. These are mainstream issues. I mean, both in texas and florida, they are running on making sure that we have a Health Care System that works for everyone. Focused on childrens education, on creating jobs. These are mainstream american issues, and i think in both of these instances, if there is a voice that has been found, its really speaking to the circumstance of working people. I look at Andrew Gillum in florida, and he has run a very aggressive and Smart Campaign thats focused on the issues that make a difference to floridians. I see the same thing in texas and across the country, which is why i think, you know, democrats dont have to speak with one voice. We just have to be clear about the voice that we are speaking with. Brian darling, you donated, full disclosure, to senator ted cruz. What were seeing in these two states and the polling, which were showing on screen, early on certainly, but were seeing neck and neck within margins of error even, right . Yeah. These are going to be reasonably close races. I think that ted cruz should have an edge. Texas is a very red state. You have a governors race. Florida might be a little closer. Florida is a swing state, and that is going to be a proxy fight between the trump support and the Bernie Sanders wing of the party, i believe. When you look at the democrats, there is a big struggle. Are they going to have a mainstream message or running on impeaching trump, socializing our medicare system . If you have that happen where its socialized medicine and impeach trump, is he dominating message of deputies . I dont think that will help them very much. I think they need to get to mainstream message. Thats Wishful Thinking because thats clearly not the message these candidates, whether in texas or florida, around the country, they are rosh ro running on. We are creating jobs for the american people. Brian . Well, hearing a lot of talk about impeaching trump and trump bashing, i dont think thats going to help democrats very much. I think republicans, if they run on tax cuts, the economy is doing great, we are having this great expansion of people getting back to work, low unemployment rates and expanding gross domestic product, that means the economy is good. I think that will help republicans. Quickly here to you, congresswoman, as we are right now in the middle of the final, what we believe the final, excuse me, ceremony for senator john mccain and the message that he brought of unity and working together, will this translate in the final ten weeks here . Are we going to see some of those notes, congresswoman . You know, i think its hard to know. But what i do know, coming out of yesterday, and i think certainly my feelings, is that we have an opportunity to work collectively on things that are going to make a difference in peoples lives, and i think if there is anything that we can learn both in senator mccains life, but also in his death, is that where there are opportunities to Work Together, it doesnt mean that you have to set aside all of your differences, but it means that you fight in a responsible way in a republic that we have and move forward helping the american people. Brian, to you, last word . I 100 agree. I think that john mccain was a champion of the senate and he wanted to have bipartisanship in working across the aisle. That has been lost by both parties. I hope that the parties could actually Work Together on a couple of substantive issues. Appreciate you being here. Thank you so much. Still ahead, President Trump ups the trade war ante, and its hitting everyday americans. Vaughn hill regaiard coming up. And the harleydavidson celebration. D the harleydavids celebration. I landed.

That aflcio fox news president on sunday, saying a new nafta deal without canada, as President Trumps trade policies are under scrutiny, because of the impact that its making on american companies.

Prompting a twitter attack from the president regarding trade. Nbcs von hilliard is on the ground in milwaukee, where harleydavidson was founded as bikers gather to celebrate the companys 115th anniversary.

What are the bikers telling you in terms of whats happening armed them on trade and what it will mean for harleydavidson . Reporter eamon, ill acknowledge, this is a pretty good gig. Were here in downtown milwaukee. This is the 115th anniversary of harleydavidson. Harleydavidson, motorcycles, are one of those industries that have been hit by the tariffs. 20 tariff coming down from the eu. Add that on top of the 25 steel tariff and 15 aluminum tariff. Suddenly harleydavidson is looking at a loss of upwards of 55 million this year. As a result, harleydavidson announced they were going to move some production overseas to europe. The president on twitter earlier this summer said harleydavidson was waving the white flag and this was, quote, the beginning of the end and a boycott would be i want to bring in one of the motorcycle riders in from st. Louis. And you were planning to ride in, but the water got in your way. The question i want to ask you was, what did you think about harleydavidson moving some of their operations overseas . And what do you think about the president s trade effort . I think harley is doing what they need to do. And not everything the president does is right. I support him, for the most part. But ill tell you something. Harley has been around for 115 years. Theyll probably be around another 115. Trump has been around two years, and maybe another two. Reporter how do you reconcile your support for the president and his trade efforts with the potential losses on Industries Like harleydavidson . Well, its tough to do. But the extra labor that well get out of it, you know, the extra jobs, may offset all of that. I mean, our economy is in better shape than it has been in years. Unemployment is at an alltime low. Reporter yeah. Randy, thank you very much. Eamon, as you just heard from randy, essentially its the idea that the shortterm losses that 55 million and potentially jobs may be worth it in the end if they were able to bring in other industries. We saw the renegotiations fall apart momentarily with canada friday. But there is hope they will continue. The president said they will push forward. And ive been talking to richard here. With it is negotiations. Also want to address the fact that china could potentially begin with 200 billion more of tariffs as soon as this friday. Richard . Its okay that you called me eamon, if i could look half as good as eamon, does i would probably have a better day job there, von. Reporter ill use the motorcycle excuse for this moment. Thats right. Im a fan of this, because i grew up in a household of six motorcycles. Did not have a harley, because they were too expensive at the time. But go get em, von hilliard. Thank you so much.
