and cynicism in minneapolis. if hillary don t mind it shouldn t be anybody else s business. tune into the original series the 90 s . finally, president trump says he has a friend named jim who loves paris. who is he? here s jeanne moos. president trump got the royal treatment. whether he was wringing the hand of the first lady of france or complimenting her physique. you re in good shape. or getting chummy with her husband, the president somebody was missing. jim. a friend of mine, he s a very, very substantial guy. he loves the city of lights. he used to tell me for years, paris, paris. jim, let me ask you a question, how s paris doing? paris, i don t go there anymore. pair sis no longer paris. france is no longer france. so he talked about jim so
very highest level of the trump campaign. this is you know that president trump s operation is a family business. this is his oldest son, his son-in-law and then the manager of his campaign at the time, paul manafort. and they had this document which said, hey, the russian government wants to help your dad and we d like to give you some damaging information, can we do that? and the response was, if this is true, we d love it. i would love it. said don jr. so it s not coming from his enemies anymore. it s coming right from the heart of their own operation. yeah, it s black and white. i love it, especially later in the summer he writes. jack, i want to ask you about this new player in the meeting, a russian lobbyist that was at this meeting. we just learned his name yesterday, rinat akhmetshin. he was an officer in the soviet army in the late 80s. he said his unit was loosely

we re about to hear from there tonight. indeed, i did have a relationship with ms. lewansky that was not appropriate. in fact, it was wrong. it constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal failure on my part for which i am solely and completely responsible. i misled people including even my wife. i deeply regret that. that s where the 90s took us. the president of the united states had to testify under oath about a woman in the oval office. this would have been inconceivable in the time of john f. kennedy. but the 90s weren t the 60s. president clinton s mea culpa sparked a lot of reaction from those who watched his speech. from new york i still like him as a president. to california. he should have laid more of his cards on the table. there was skepticism in houston. what else has he lied about?
