North korean actions just reenforced for both leaders why this is the number one threat to both Prime Minister abe and to President Trump. I think the north korean actions were deliberately timed after what was a pretty good week in terms of u. S. Policy in asia, with regard to President Trumps call with xi jinping and secretary mattiss trip to the region, i think the Trump Administration said look, were here and were not going to be an easy issue to deal with. Right now the National Security advisor is said to have broke on the law and critics call for him to be fired, for him to step down. How much does that impact the advice that this group can give the president at this time . I think the precedent is going to get advise from a wide range of people, including the folks in the State Department,
particularly those commitments to china that would affect the finances that north korea has for building these missiles, there may be a statement that comes out of the u. N. Security council
It looks like hes going back to exactly how he got elected. Hes going to the people and bringing his arguments to the people. But there is a particular sound here on the media where he talks about the media deserving a failing grade. Do we have that . Take a listen. The medias job is to be honest and tell the truth. Then i think we would all agree the media deserves a very, very big fat failing grade. Not all of them. We call it the fake news. Even is using the word fake news. When did you hear it first, folks . Judge jeanine is this classic donald trump where he has been graded for the fast few days about the first 100 days. He literally spun it around and graded the media. You look at the Media Coverage of this president. An analysis was released last week that said from january 20 to april 9 of the 1,900 mines, 186 minutes of that time was either neutral or positive. Which means 96 of the time was negative coverage. The American People know the fake news is real, they dont tell the
Second, the second, to study evidence actually exist . Today the top democrat on the House Intelligence Committee says he doesnt think so. I dont expect well see any evidence of this either. I agree with timecard. One of two possibilities here. The president quite deliberately for some reason made up this charge are perhaps more disturbing the president really believes this. Reporter the charges former president barack obama ordered the wiretapping of trump tower during the election. The former president has led the charge. So as the current fbi director reportedly asked the Justice Department to publicly reject the president s claims. Congressman schiff plans to ask about it directly when he testifies before the full Committee Later this month. Republicans have also been very critical of President Trump on this issue. Just today, john mccain said thursday road need for congress

Also tonight some reporters at the white house incredulous as the white house doctor declared that the president is in excellent mental and physical health. Watch this. Can you tell me how a guy holler all those diet cokes and never exercises is in as good a shape as you say he is in. Its called genetics. I dont know. Martha Everyone Wants to get on that plan. He rarely sees the president when he terms as stressed out conditions. He has the ability to wake up every day and sort of reset when he is faced with the pressures of the office.

Even president moon jaein, the south korean president all for engagement and negotiation, offered to meet with kim jongun he said if the continues are right, let me think about this. Ill get back to you. President trump normal situation should have done convene a meeting and talk about pros and cons of having such a Summit Meeting with kim jongun, and then coordinate the policy and
