Theyve already helped him make this pick and go through this process, but they are now going to get out there and work the roots for the votes, especially for the democratic votes he needs and the more conservative states out there. This is how you do a rollout. Whether you agree or disagree with something, and after the last few days, how can Something Like the travel ban be so rocky and so confusing where Government Agencies are not talking to each other, and they do this again. Whether you like the judge or not or a president from a marketing and branding standpoint. Thats perfect. This is the Dividing Line in the white house. The travel ban was ushered into being by Steven Miller and steve bannon who are disrupters by nature. They create this sort of environment of chaos as part of their governing philosophy, but the Supreme Court pick is a very conventional washington thing. This is a Reince Priebus operation. It was done by the book. It was contrary to what everybody thought it w
Hackers were targeting the dnc and other democratic operations. By the way, as candidate trump was publicly calling on the russians to publicly hack Hillary Clintons emails. We dont know the contact or motive before the conversations, but the word they happened is a big real development. We should note the kremlin and donald trump this morning are calling it fake news. Cnns jim sciutto has been working sources all day, all night on this story. Jim, bring us up to speed on where we are right now at 9 01 eastern time. I should knnote calling it fe news without the president or the white house responding to the substance of the reporting which weve asked them to do. Lets get to what the reporting is. One, two things caused alarm, raised red flags in u. S. Law enforcement and intelligence. First, the volume and frequency of the communications between trump advisers and the russians. Communications happen during campaigns, typically at a much lower level and much less frequent than what the
North korea will reject the results of what it calls the forced autopsy which it says was not witnessed by north korean officials. Who knows if the north korean will ever get that body back or what that autopsy will say about the cause of death. Brian, thank you. Im brianna keilar. Erin burnett out front starts right now. Out front next, breaking news, the dow hits an all time high again seven days in a row. Trump taking the credit. Does he deserve it . And the secret Service Investigating an incident tonight involving trumps mor or the cade, what happened, and trumps twitter tirade. He tweeted, deleted, retweeted. Lets go out front. Good evening. Im erin burnett. One thing going right for trump. An alltime high. These are the facts. Stocks hit a record today in the midst of their best streak in 25
years. Its a dramatically different headline than the ones about chaos and turmoil in the white house. Those headlines are true, but so is this one. The economy is surging. Another fact. A s
But, david, she moved on to say shes convinced a trade deal between the u. S. And the ucla is in both kun and the u. K. Is in both countrys interest but we didnt get a lot of detail. President trump believes in oneonone trade deals specifically to the exclusion of Multi Lateral trade deals and would like to get a trade deal done with the united kingdom, particularly after brexit. I think he sees this as a big achievement and binding of president u. K. And United States that have moved at least in his view in a more nationalist direction. Thats what he would like to do. I thought the Prime Ministers comments about nato were so fascinating, really, because there are so many people around the world, u. S. Allies, republicans here at home, that are so concerned that trump could diminish the importance of nato as a part of our foreign policy. And theyre all trying to tell news the media rest assured trump desirent believe what
respective countries. Sandra and this, david, is coming ahead of
Arpaio. In the next hour, a lot more people are here. More than 10,000 people have signed up on facebook to participate in the protest. The rally begins in about two hours. Right now, the police are doing a good job keeping both sides separate. The s. W. A. T. Is here with rifles. Gary, thank you very much. The mayor of phoenix opposed the president s visit. He is a democrat. In a recent oped, he accused the president of dousing racial tensions with gasoline and he fears he may be looking to light a match. I spoke to the mayor before we went on air. You called on the president not to come to phoenix. Im wondering what your concern was, is it just the possibility of the protest, certainly there are a lot of Trump Supporters there that want to see him tonight. I felt after the tragedy in charlottesville, which happened just a short time ago, the president failed moral leadership after
charlottesville. His failure to condemn the racism and the nazis there, to have a Campaign Rally here in
