Hes made comments about the assassination of journalists and hes joked, his Administration Says it was a joke about murdering somebody whether he he was younger. This is somebody who is not a traditional leader ally like you might see in other parts of the region. Yet, the president and white house have talked about this friendly relationship between the two. I think you saw that here in manila. The two toasting. At one point duterte singing a love song in honor of the president , getting up on stage and delivering this duet with lyrics like you are the light of my life, the half of my heart. So clearly the two of them working on this relationship. The president seeming to hope the Good Chemistry leads to good policy. Again, questions on why no mention of Human Rights Abuses here. That is similar to what we saw from President Trump in china, for example, and on past overseas trips. Im thinking of the one, for example, over to saudi earlier in the year. Back in may. The White House Admi
Former GOP representative Joe Scarborough and Mika Brezinski interview newsmakers, politicians and pundits about the issues of the day. Job Approval Rating probably has seven or eight points, maybe even a little more of what i think of as 401 k trumpers right now. I think there are people who are looking at their statements, people who are on the right side of the economic equation any way. They see their numbers going up for all sorts of reasons. And so theyre willing to not really dive in to this russian novel story that no one can quite figure out. And theyre willing to suspend their bizarrely in my view, but they are willing to suspend their ordinary moral judgments about how this president conducts himself and is now representing us on the world stage. But i would not, if i were in the white house, count on that lasting until 2020. Well see. Joe, your latest column in the Washington Post really speaks to this entitled trump finally

You know, if you wanted to hold a pageant to decide the president aes favorite Member Of Congress, i dont think any of us knows who the final winner might be. Might be whether the president insisted on a swimsuit contest or something scarier. Without any argument at all, i think almost all of us who paid any attention to the news in this era, we could all name a couple of the pageant finalists were this contest to happen. One of the finalists would undoubtedly be the Member Of Congress who started off today being taken into custody at the offices of the fbi in lower manhattan. Chris collins a Republican Congressman from new york, hes from buffalo, he was the first Member Of Congress to
endorse Donald Trumps president ial campaign all the way back in february, 2016. We know that is the kind of thing that really matters to this president.

Touches several other serving republican members of congress and disgraced health secretary, tom price, the first trump Cabinet Secretary to resign in scandal. We have had our fair share of political scandals and public corruption indictments as a country. That is a history that includes todays date on the calendar in 1974, when president Richard Nixon resigned the presidency in the wake of the watergate scandal, this day, 1974. But even so, even with that rich history under our belts, it really is something when you wake up to the news of a sitting member of congress being indicted by federal prosecutors and the sight of a sitting member of congress being hauled before a federal judge for criminal arraignment. So, we will have more ahead tonight on trump ally republican congressman Chris Collins turning himself in and being indicted and arraigned on federal criminal charges today
