presidential nomination in a city that he reportedly told house republicans was horrible. this weekend the biden campaign are seizing on trump s harsh words. while trump s campaign and his allies are doing all they can to down play, deny or justify his comments, falling back on racist lies about crime and voter in a city led by a black mayor. joining me now the mayor of milwaukee, wisconsin, cavalier johnson, a democrat. thank you for being with us tonight. i know that you are a democrat and you as a democrat still deeply involved in bringing the republican national convention to milwaukee. now exactly one month away. so how did it feel to hear the presumptive gop nominee had reportedly told house republicans that your city was horrible just two days ago. of course trump is now denying this happened but which kind of conference with what he and other republicans in the meeting have said since but still what are your thoughts on this? well, thank you reverand sharpton. look,
there. i want to go to chuck todd. he s inside the white house. chuck, do you have any sense of internal deliberations there and what they re thinking? well, look, you can even see it in the statement, if you go over the last 72 hours and they ve gotten slowly and surely tougher and tougher on mubarak. they re still trying to walk that line when he s calling egypt a very important ally as he said in his remarks. and at the same time, giving more of leaning even farther forward as far as the demonstrators are corn certained, as far as the issues of these rights for the protestors are concerned, for the young folks, talking about the internet. they ve been much of the day. they were like us, glued to the television. 24ed a little better access, they have secure video links to their ambassador. finally at the end of today, the president talked to mubarak. other than that, they were sitting there watching the way the rest of us were watching.
