To those of you who are visiting, welcome to los angeles, california, which as of today is the official home of the summer olympics in 2028. Thats right. [ cheers and applause ] the olympics will be in paris in 2024, l. A. In 2028, which is very exciting. President kid rock himself will be here for the opening ceremonies. To be the plan, until think realized they had very little local support. People in boston didnt want them. But here they did a poll, they found that 83 of l. A. Residents approve of hosting the olympics. Although its important to keep in mind 83 of l. A. Residents also approve of glutenfree pizza, so we really cant be trusted. [ laughter ] get ready, we can in just 11 short years, we can look forward to seeing the greatest athletes in the world stuck next to us on the 405. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] we have an olympiccaliber program for you tonight. Sean spicer is here with us tonight. [ cheers and applause ] you may remember his hit reality show im a press secretary, get me out of here. This will be seans First Television appearance since he escaped from, i mean resigned from, the trump administration. I feel like im interviewing one of the chilean miners. Still has the helmet on. Also tonight the surprise winner of the u. S. Open, the american underdog Sloane Stephens is here. [ cheers and applause ] a spicer and a slicer tonight. First i want to update you on ted cruz. Ted cruz is having a tough week. Monday night the senators official twitter account tedcruz liked a very graphic clip from an adult film titled moms bang teens 20. Without any kind of spoiler alert for us who didnt see the 19 in the series. He was embarrassed, called it a staffing issue which is a term no human ever uses. But he did. Even though he made a statement there were still a lot of questions. To clear things up, today ted sat down with dana bash of cnn to explain in detail exactly what happened. Have you identified the staffer . You know who it is . We have looked into it, yes, we identified it. We pulled it down. It was an honest mistake. It wasnt malicious, it wasnt deliberate, it was a screwup. Is the staffer being punished . We have talked with the staffer. Its not going to happen again. It was a screwup. Can you tell me the staffers name . Im not going to out the fellow. I mean, this were we have dealt with it internally but im not going to throw someone under the bus. Can you definitively say that it wasnt you . It was not me and its not going to happen again. This was a screwup. Jimmy yeah, yeah. It was him, right . [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] if he was my teenage son id say, yeah, it was you, you did it. This is embarrassing. Dennys. You know dennys has the grand slam breakfast and theyve had it for many years. But to promote them, they had some animated characters drawn up. They have a little cartoon pancake, theyve got a little cartoon egg, bacon. The item thats getting attention right now is this. This is dennys says this is a sausage. At one point maybe it was. [ laughter ] now its just a health code violation. I dont know. How this happened . With all the people, the lawyers, all the meetings, these companies, how does that make it through . [ laughter ] i like to imagine someone on the Marketing Team said, hey, you know what, this kind of looks like a poop. Another guy is like, you know what lets just put a hat on it, it will be fine. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] this characters been around for three years and people just noticed it. I tell you something, you really dropped the ball here, internet. This is what you do. If you cant handle this maybe we have to go back to gangnam style. In any event. This is the worst ad since what can brown do for you. So congratulations to dennys. In other world news. You know how things havent been going so great between us and north korea relationshipwise, a rough patch . Theyre not getting any better any time soon. The u. N. Security council this week approved a new round of sanctions against north korea and theyre severe. Theyre taking kim jonguns ipad away for a week. [ laughter ] the hope is that the new sanctions will force north korea to change its behavior. Because that worked so well the last 15 times we tried it. But in response to the sanctions, north koreas threatened to cause the United States the greatest pain and suffering it has gone through in its entire history. I hate to break it to you, we already kind of did that to ourselves back in november. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] its not something to be taken lightly. They have nuclear weapons. And they have an unpredictable dictator running things. Most experts believe they have missiles that can reach at least the west coast, which is where we all are here right now. And i dont know, i like to be prepared in situations like this. We hear a lot about what to do in an earthquake but not much about how to deal with nuclear attack. We got in touch with an expert, dr. Irwin redliner, director of the National Center for Disaster Preparedness at columbia university. He knows what to do. So i grabbed guillermo and we met him at the first place i would go if disaster strikes. Hello, dr. Redliner, im jimmy. Hi, how are you . Jimmy very good, this is my associate guillermo. Welcome to my office. Jimmy well, thank you for meeting us here, i really appreciate it. Weve been worried, right . Guillermo yeah, very much. Jimmy ill take off my glasses. Were worried about nuclear attack. Were here in california. Were on the west coast. I know youre director of the National Center for Disaster Preparedness. Right. Jimmy explain it to us like were children. Guillermo yes, like kids. Jimmy we kind of are. I can do that. First of all, background is and why people are so worried about this, during the cold war jimmy you say white people . I didnt but you can. Jimmy he said why people. I thought you said white people also. White people are worried. All people are worried. I think all people are worried about it. It used to be people worried during those years that the United States and the soviet union, body having tens of thousands of nuclear weapons, would start a war in minutes that could basically wipe out everybody on the planet. Jimmy we didnt want that. No, no one wants that, who would want that . Jimmy if north korea, for instance, were to launch nuclear missiles, like how soon would they get there . If we ordered chicken wings right now would the wings get here first or the missiles get here first . I dont know, hows the service around here . Guillermo its easy to order a shot of tequila because it doesnt take too long. Jimmy youre right but youre missing the point, guillermo. Say north korea launches missiles. Is it possible we wouldnt know it was coming . Wed probably now were on high alert and we would know it was coming. The question is would we be able to stop it from actually hitting us . Presumably we have the technology that might make that possible, hopefully that would be the case jimmy nothing ever works. I try to order pay per view and i cant. I fail. So im worried that we have the same deal going with our technology. Guillermo and how do we know that weve been attacked . Are we going to see smoke or something . If you become aware of the fact that theres been a nuclear detonation, how would you know . A gigantic flash of light 1,000 times more powerful than the sun. You have a few seconds. Then you have this tremendous explosion. And a force of wind that would be like 1,000 hurricane harveys. Jimmy really. Just enormous. The farther you are away from the detonation, the more chance you have of actually surviving. If you know a few simple rules about it. Jimmy im going to write these down. Write them down. Heres the big rule. You want to put as much shielding between you and the outside. If you can get to the center of the building, away from the windows. Not too close to the top because radiations going to fall on the roof. And the more interior you are and the more protection youll have and the more likely you will be able to survive. The main thing is to get out of harms way immediately. Youve got 15 to 20 minutes. And thats it. Then youve got to be inside someplace, with provisions to let you stay for 24, 48 hours. Jimmy will we have wifi at that time . You wont. You might, actually. Jimmy whats the point of being alive if we dont have wifi, really. Its a point. Jimmy you might as well go up on the roof its a point. Guillermo as long as i have tequila, i dont care about a wifi. Jimmy okay, all right. Los angeles, for example, since were here. If a nuclear bomb or briefcase explodes here. Take us through that. I just happen to have with me my walletsize map. Jimmy you carry this around just to bum people out . You never know when people are going to ask a question. You have ground zero here. And within a half mile, the actual detonation, there will be no life. Every building could be destroyed, everybody would be gone. But this is very tight in. If youre up here, if youre three, four, five miles from ground zero, you are going to be alive. Most likely. Jimmy that surprises me. Yeah. Jimmy im really surprised by how small the area is. The problem is going to be if youre here and your wife is working down here. Jimmy right. Your kids are going to school over here. Its a nightmare. Guillermo yeah. Most of us would want to go get our loved ones. Guillermo its going to be a nightmare. Jimmy youre wearing an aluminum foil hat. Guillermo oh, yeah, but this is for safety. Jimmy but the dodgers are going to be okay, it looks like. Thats a good point. Jimmy thats true, yeah. Might not be. Guillermo so if you live in the valley in the valley, youll be safe. Jimmy well, no, hes using this as an example. Its just an example. Guillermo oh, oh, i thought it was going to happen downtown. Jimmy nothings going to happen downtown, hes just saying its an example. Guillermo oh, i was so happy, live in the valley, im going to be safe. Jimmy yeah, no, youre not. Do you want to go play some games . Id love to play some games. Guillermo me too. Jimmy come back for it a little bit. Im going for it. Jimmy all right. Here we go. Got him jimmy i think we got one. Oh, oh, oh my goodness. Jimmy oh my god. Kim jongun wins again. [ cheers and applause ] jimmy thats where you go, hide in the claw machine. Tonight music from 21 savage, u. S. Open champion Sloane Stephens is here, and well be right back with former voice of the white house, sean spicer [ cheers and applause ] when you look at the mercedesbenz glc.

All depends on your point of view. Lease the glc300 for 479 a month at your local mercedesbenz dealer. Mercedesbenz. The best or nothing. I look back on my life and i know what it was for. What if i struggled. What if i sacrificed. And what if i swore id succeed. So you could wake up one day with the choice to be anything you wanted. Well then, my great granddaughter. It would all be worth it. You for four years. You named it brad. You loved brad. And then you totaled him. You two had been through everything together. Two boyfriends, three jobs.

Guillermo uh [ laughter ] guillermo maybe, maybe. Jimmy does she even know youre going to brooklyn yet . Guillermo yeah, i told her. Jimmy okay, well work it out. Lets work that out on the air. Guillermo yes. [ laughter ] jimmy here we go. From the oval office to the bushes in the rose garden, our first guest has seen it all. He survived one of the worst jobs ever and is free at last to speak about it. From our Nations Capital please say hello to former White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer [ cheers and applause ] jimmy there you are. Its very good to have you here. Thank you for coming. If id known i was going to get that kind of applause i would have left earlier. Jimmy is it weird for you to get applause when you walk out onto a stage . Usually youre looking at all these grimfaced reporters. Yeah, especially in california. Jimmy oh, have you been getting have you been harassed . No, no, its been unbelievably pleasant since for the last month. People have been very, very supportive. And thats i think very helpful to know. People come up and say, thank you for your service, i didnt vote for the president , im not a republican, but i appreciate you serving the country. I think that gets back to what this should always be about is that we have elections, they get decided, then people of both parties should be able to serve this country. Jimmy are you distancing yourself from the president right now . [ laughter ] absolutely not. No im not. Jimmy well, you know, this is obviously a hard job. And, i mean it turned out to be kind of funny in a lot of ways. Was it for you . For you. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] im not so sure i see it that way. But i appreciate the jokes. Jimmy lets go back to the beginning. How did you get the job of press secretary in the first place . So i had been at the Republican National committee for about six years. You know, our job is to sync up with the nominee. After the indiana primary, trump became the apparent nominee. Went into the convention. They ran a rather unconventional campaign. And so there was a lot of need for communications staff. And i was asked to go up and start helping out on a more fulltime basis, help up and down the ticket. I started basically commuting to new york the last week of august, spent the last 3 1 2 months getting to know the president. Traveling with him, doing the events. And you know, then we won. Jimmy then he said youre the guy. Then, you know, i literally got a phone call from the president , and he said, lets do this. I want you to do the job. And i thanked him profusely. And off we went. Jimmy and so right off the bat, your firstever press conference. You get in there and its the day after the inauguration, right . Yes. Jimmy and you are charged with the job of going in front of the press and saying that the inauguration crowd was the biggest crowd i think ever, biggest audience [ laughter ] yes, im aware. [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] i appreciate the reminder how it went down. Jimmy so did the president himself if it was up to you would this even have been a topic . You know, if it was up to me i would have probably worn a different suit. I thought i was going in on a saturday morning to set my office up, get the computer, make sure the emails went out. You know. And jimmy somebody told you, you need to go out there and say this . The president wanted to make sure the record got set straight. Jimmy why is he so concerned with size . Have you ever seen the president naked . I have not, no. Jimmy you have not, okay. But look, i said it at the time and i believe in all seriousness, again, whether or not you voted for him or not, the president won the election. He was faced a lot of headwinds. I think there was a faction of people out there that didnt want to give him the credit that he rightly deserved. I think he takes a lot of that sometimes personally. Some of us who worked very hard to get him elected felt as though a lot of folks in the media in particular constantly sought to undermine the validity of that election. And so you have to understand it sometimes from that perspective. Jimmy but the validity of the election, compared to looking at photos of the crowd at an inauguration. I mean, there are like one is this and one is this. Did you try to talk him out of that line of defense . I think we, you know theres a lot of us that wanted to be focused on his agenda, what he spoke about in his inaugural address. So, you know, look. Hes president , he made a decision jimmy you have to go along, even though even if you know, and im not going to ask you to say, even if you know the crowd wasnt bigger you have to go, as press secretary, you have to say that it was . Look, your job as press secretary is to represent the president s voice. And to make sure that you are articulating what he believes his vision is on policy, on issues, on other areas that he wants to articulate. Whether or not you agree or not isnt your job. Your job is to give him advice. And which what is we would do on a variety of issues all the time. He would always listen to that advice, but ultimately hes the president. Hed say, agree sometimes, hed say thats a good point, incorporate it, sometimes he would say, depending on the issue, i know what i believe and this is what i think the right thing to do is. Jimmy then you had to march out and say, yeah, he had a bigger crowd, everybody. [ laughter ] as i said, hes the. Hes the president. He decides. Jimmy i understand. Thats what you sign up to do. Jimmy a lot of these guys, these members of the press, were your friends, right . I think were, yeah. Jimmy were, okay. [ laughter ] Jonathan Karl from abc news who was a friend of yours . Ive known jonathan for a long time. Jimmy okay, all right. Heres how you guys kind of got it going. Is it your intention to always tell the truth from that podium, and will you pledge never to knowingly Say Something that is not factual . It is. Its an honor to do this. And yes, i believe that we have to be honest with the american people. I think sometimes we can disagree with the facts. Jimmy can we, though, disagree with the facts . Look, i think the point is that you can look at a set of an argument or set of facts and come out with one opinion, someone else can say, while the facts are the same i come out with a different conclusion. Jimmy i see. Thats what makes our country great is that theres ways that you can look at economic models and say, we believe that growth rates will be higher or lower and thats jimmy if i were to say to you, im sitting on a horse right now you are not. Jimmy right, exactly [ cheers and applause ] jimmy so i want to ask about jonathan. When hes asking you this question are you like, you son of a bitch, ive known you for 20 years there were a couple of other words. [ laughter ] but thats the tv version. Were on cable. You know, yeah, theres times when youre thinking to yourself, you know if you want to ask about policy or a particular instance, but to get up there and question, you know, on day one my integrity, i think was not something that i anticipated. Jimmy yeah. Well, im sure. Although when you brought that crowd size thing out, it opened this terrible pandoras box. You think thats what got you off to kind of a bad start with the press corps . I dont think it was it was probably not the best start, no. Jimmy did donald trump did the president watch all your press conferences . I dont think, not every one of them. Jimmy would he be waiting for you afterwards . There were some days when he would at some point either see clips or watch it, depending on the day and what meetings were happening and what time the briefing was. So a lot of times he would provide feedback based on, again my job is to articulate his position. Jimmy yeah, right. He would say, hey, i thought that was really good how you articulated this. I think i would have phrased this differently. Jimmy really . Hes that constructive in the way he puts things . Sometimes. Depends on the issue. It depended on the issue, and again, its my job to speak on his behalf. Jimmy yeah. If youre not speaking in the way that he wants, obviously he wanted to make sure that he corrected that. Jimmy i want to ask about the tweeting. Were going to take a break. I want to ask you about the tweeting when we come back. I have this fantasy of you reading twitter and reacting. In fact, we actually made this fantasy come to life. Sean spicer is here with us, well be right back. [ cheers and applause ] it all started when sophia stopped into marshalls and found a mug for surprisingly little green. She paired that with some succulents. And suddenly something clicked. That surprise led to a stylish wood mirror, soothing lavender oils, a party llama. Or is that an alpaca . Super soft towels, and an enchanting vase that magically tied it all together. She arranged it all into the greatest guest bathroom ever. Did sophia expect to get so much bang for so few bucks . No. But great things happen when you choose surprise. Marshalls. Your surprise is waiting. But great things happen when you choose surprise. were proud to reveal that jim beam black has been awarded the worlds highest rated bourbon. Their words, not ours. Make history. buy the galaxy note8 and choose free accessories up to 229. Youbusted tail. Rd. And impressed the boss. Maybe, its time to be your own. Transform your career with strayer universitys mba program today. Lets get it, america. Donald trump comes out and undermines what theyre saying. For example, sean spicer when he said, this is not a muslim ban, this is not a travel ban, and the president says he wants his travel ban and doesnt like the watereddown one [ cheers and applause ] jimmy sean spicer. You didnt know we had cameras in your office. So when the president would tweet, did you have an alert on your phone . Yes. [ laughter ] jimmy did he ever run a tweet by you before tweeting it . I dont [ laughter ] maybe once or twice. Jimmy did you ask him to . To run it by . Jimmy yeah. No. Jimmy no, you didnt. Did it ever like wake you up in the middle of the night . Anything like that . I think there were times when you were you might have wanted to go to bed and said, okay, this is going to be a little longer night. Or you would get up the first thing. But that was the, you know one of the president s most effective tools in the campaign, he continues to utilize it. You were constantly kept on your toes. I will tell you theres no one thats working harder than him when it comes to the hours of the day. Hes up late, hes up early. As a staffer youre trying to get ahead of your boss. Jimmy did you ever try accidentally dropping his phone in the toilet . [ laughter ] i did not. Jimmy you did not, see, you should have called me, i could have helped you with this job. [ laughter ] youve been a lot of help. Jimmy i know. This idea of fake news. Yeah. Jimmy again, we talked about your relationship. You have a longstanding relationship with members of the press. Yeah. Jimmy do you agree that the vast majority of i dont mean the vast majority, the majority of journalists are decent people who are looking to get the truth and to write the truth . I think probably the majority. Jimmy yeah. There are a lot that have now i always like to say theyd rather be first than right. And i think thats unfortunate. Because it gives a bad name to those who actually do take the time to do it right. Jimmy there is a lot of that. People want to just get the click. Right. Theres a line between and this is where i think a lot of journalisted have crossed a line, they go on twitter or social media and start to perpetuate myths and make back and forth and say, thats not a story, thats a tweet jimmy wait a minute, journalists go on twitter and perpetuate myths . How about the president . [ applause ] well, yeah i think theres a lot of times, again, what i found frustrating was there were a lot of times when they were literally creating a story out of whole cloth that didnt exist. I think thats difficult, because if youre a viewer or a reader and you see something, youre trusting these individuals to give you what is the best the whole truth. Jimmy sure, yeah. As opposed to a onesided way thats going to promote a view or a click. Jimmy but the president it seems that what he calls fake news is really anything that criticizes him. And then hell give validity to wacky news sources sometimes. Because theyre complimentary. And do you think that is a dangerous thing to delegitimize the press for america . I think its a twoway street. And when these guys in the press corps go after the president in ways that are unbecoming again, its sort of like what your mom said, two wrongs dont make a right. I think sometimes when the press corps attacks the president , undermines him, calls into question his credibility from the outset, i think it creates a very poor relationship overall. And i think that there is some area that could deserve a reset. Hopefully i think sarahs done a phenomenal job of really trying to take the tone down and get back. Jimmy when you say two wrongs, donald trump is wrong . No, i didnt say that. [ light laughter and applause ] jimmy you dont have work there anymore, you dont have to worry about him. We can protect you here. Ive got the best security guy in the world. [ cheers and applause ] guillermo i got your back. No, i just i believe that, look a free press is paramount to a democracy. And its what makes our country great. That we do have the ability, like so many places on earth dont have that ability to speak freely, to have a free press. But it is an awesome responsibility for those members of the press corps to have. And they need to understand that when they cross the line or when a member of the press corps crosses the line, they have a responsibility to help hold that in. And ive never seen a group of individuals who protect themselves like the press corps does. Especially the White House Press corps. They have never once, during my tenure, at least to my recollection, ever called out someone who has crossed the line on a story. I think the undermines jimmy is that true . I rarely have seen any they always have an excuse for why that story, oh, we were going to correct it and we checked with the sources and now and its never theres never an admission of guilt. Once in a while you see the little correction, we erred in putting the period here or there. But i do believe that the healthier press corps that we have, the better democracy that we have. Jimmy lumping everyone together, though, as fake news, just seems terrible to me. Sure, but jimmy youre a catholic and im a catholic as well. Im offended when people lump all priests together as child abusers. I find that to be unfair to those who arent. I agree. Jimmy but as someone whos a conservative and a republican, i spent 25 years in washington, d. C. Being told, conservatives want this. Republicans are against this. So i agree. But its the press corps that also lumps all of us into the same bucket as well and says, conservatives dont care about this. The republicans are racist. Those are if those statements are not right, then its not right again, its that whole idea of two wrongs dont make a right. The press corps wants to attack republicans, attack conservatives, undermine our attempt to have a constructive dialogue. And i think its a twoway street. So if we dont want to lump every journalist into the same thing, dont lump every republican and every conservative into the same box. Jimmy okay. [ cheers and applause ] i dont think everyone is. Youve got fox news is certainly not doing that. You consider them to be part of the press. I mean, its it really is it seems almost like a childish way to interact with each other as two different groups. Thats why im saying, i think theres a time that we can start taking down the temperature and getting back to a more constructive and civil dialogue. Jimmy you mean when mike pence takes over . [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] i think we could all use a dose of that, and especially, you know one of the things that makes us, again, such a great country is that we have this ability to have the discourse that we have. But i think that what we want to do is continue to be that place in the world that people look to and admire. And the values and the principles that we have. Jimmy when we come back, i want to ask you about Anthony Scaramucci. Ive heard of him. Jimmy well get into that with sean spicer when we come back, well be right back. Maria is an incredible mom. When it comes to helping her daughter, shopping for groceries, unclogging the sink, setting updentist appointments and planning birthday parties, nobody does it better. Shes also in a rock band.

I would like to begin today by apologizing on behalf of you to me. For how you have treated me these last two weeks. And that apology is not accepted because im not here to be your buddy im here to swallow gum, and im here to take names [ laughter ] [ cheers and applause ] jimmy melissa mccarthy. I watched you laughing very hard. Ive spent a lot of money on therapy. Jimmy you thought that was funny . That was kind of funny. [ laughter ] jimmy the president , he didnt think that was fun though . I dont think he found it as humorous. Jimmy is he particularly annoyed by the fact that a woman was playing you . I really didnt ask a ton of questions. [ laughter ] that may have been a contributing factor. Jimmy what a nowin situation that is. Theyre making fun of me, and youre mad at me for it and she wins an emmy [ cheers and applause ] jimmy you posted this on twitter. Theres us together. What year was this . That was 2007 . Jimmy i think i was filling in for regis with kelly. Yes. Jimmy outside and it was fleet week. There you are in your uniform. Thats pretty crazy. [ cheers and applause ] yep. Jimmy i didnt know about it until you sent to it me. And im not i dont know what im looking at there. But i apologize for that. This Anthony Scaramucci character. You didnt get along with the guy, obviously. Actually, thats not true. Jimmy oh. Id known anthony from the campaign. Hed done a lot of surrogate work for us on different Television Networks supporting the president and the campaign. We had known each other through the campaign. Jimmy but when he was hired, thats what you said right, but it wasnt personal, it wasnt that i had anything against anthony. I didnt feel anthony has been a very successful in business hes made a ton of money but i didnt feel as if he had the qualifications or background to work in the communications office. Jimmy i see. And my view was is that if im going to have to partner with somebody that i dont believe had the skill set to execute the job, it was incumbent upon me to either step aside or make my voice known. I did. I told the president i thought it was an if he wanted a clean slate, if he wanted a change, that i respected that. But it was in his best interests to have me step aside completely and let anthony move forward. Jimmy when that new yorker article came out where he said all those crazy things and apparently didnt seem to realize that he was on the record, where were you when you read that .
