Main event is now over. So that does it for us from hamburg tonight. Rachel will be back on monday, and i will see you again next friday live from iraq where we will take you to the front lines for the final push to drive isis out of the city of mosul. Now its time for the last good evening, richard. Thank you for all that reporting. But you go, i do want to ask you given everything, do you think putin got what he wanted out of President Trump today . I think he absolutely got what he wanted. I think he came in with this intention to have a long meeting. I think he wanted to overwhelm the president , presenting him lots of options, lots of things they could discuss, put some meat on the table for them to start digging right into it and hoping this will lead to more discussions, more followon, and a tighter relationship. Interesting. Richard engel, thank you very much. Absolutely. I am ari melber live in new
york for lawrence odonnell. Now for months, people have been watching to see if
Times i asked him again. He said he absolutely did not meddle in our election. He did not do what theyre saying he did. John roberts is reporting on this on a moving bus at this moment. John, its a fine distinction, but the president didnt say he believed putin. He said that he believes that putin means it, right . Yeah. There is a different here and the language is what is important. Were pulling this bus, by the way, up to the royal palace in downtown hanoi, where the president and the president of vietnam will hold bilateral meetings. The president did make a lot of news on Air Force One when he said that he talked to President Putin about whether or not Russia Meddled in the election. He got a denial from putin. Headquarters of raqqa fell. And the president and President Putin agreed they would find a way forward and political solution to syria under the framework of the u. N. Security council on syria. The two leaders saying that efforts to deconflict between the two militaries ha
Whether there are grounds for a Criminal Investigation or an ethics investigation against the president of is the United States of america. For example, Rachel Crooks is one of the 16 women that we know of who have come forward. She said that President Trump, before he was president , quote, kissed me directly on the mouth. It was so inappropriate that he thought i was so insignificant he could do that. Jo hart, said he absolutely groped me, and he just lipid his hand there touching my private parts, end quote. These are just two examples of unwelcome sexual advances. I think were he on the subway or in a restaurant would not either or both of these incident be enough to get him arrested . In your experience as the number two most important Law Enforcement officer in the United States, but before you answer that, how about these cases . Kristin anderson in an interview said, quote, the person on my right who unbeknownst to me at the time was donald trump, put their hand up my skirt. He
Why is that . Is he couldnt ihe couldnting. He seems to be the person that makes donald trump the most nervous. All of those stay strong, he drnt wadidnt want to fire him. But i think that is looming out there. So you have this committee that is chaired by Jeff Sessions where the gentleman who was in charge of it recruits in papadopoulous and he is now actually also talking to at least the Senate Committees and probably to muellers team as well, you have this team that now seems to be kind of in low customer of the contacts with russia in addition to trump jr. , to kushner and others. Locust of russia in addition to trump jr. , to kushner and others. But carter page overnight is now saying that shortly after his trip to russia to meet with russian officials in july of
2016, which we now learn he did meet with russian high official, not Just University officials or whatever he was trying to say before, but shortly after the trip, he sentd an email to one aide describing insights he had.
The transcript had been out for two months. Maybe the ambassador thought there is nothing new here. But, shazam, last week you come forward with supposed this new information and nothing different in there than what we had on the transcript. Maybe thats the reason their star witness, first witness didnt bring it up. Youre their closing witness because you overheard the president overtalking to Ambassador Sondland. I see four seconds left on the clock. You may take as long as you need. Thank you, sir. I believe that Ambassador Taylor already knew when i briefed him when i returned from vacation on the 6th. It was not news for him that the president was pressing for a Biden Investigation. I asked why he didnt share with us. Please do not interrupt the witness any further. You may answer the question.

come back and i referred to the call and everyone is nodding. Of course, thats whats going on. Of course the president is pressing for a
