bottom line, partisan politics shouldn t even cross a president s mind in the face of suffering by u.s. citizens. george w. bush didn t exactly carry manhattan but he rallied around the any of new york after the attacks of then. that s what president s do, that s why it s called acting presidential and everyone should feel that the federal government has got their back when disaster strikes because it s moments like that when we should realize that no matter who you vote for, what divides us is small in the face of what unites us as americans. and that s your reality check. if there s one thing that could afford to be apolitical it s disaster relief. you would think. new privacy concerns for facebook users. what happens when you give the company your phone number next? plus, a possible medical breakthrough, a second person could be cured of hiv.

and i would argue set the best example for how to conduct yourself in the post presidency. there for the presidents if they need him but staying out of the limelight as well. todd: it s that public service that is standing out so much this morning. we live in a society now where public service is viewed as a temporary job to lead to another job in the private sector where one gets paid a boat load of money. credit, george w. bush didn t need the money he was millionaire early on in his life. all those jobs he took. i would say he grew up in privileged. but he didn t accept the handout. when he got back from the war. he finished college. he was a college baseball player. he immediately got married and george w. bush is born. barbara bush would do the box scores. holding the baby. and then 41 had an opportunity to come here to wall street. he says no. i m going to make my way. and they leave and get in the car and drive to
little bit of political darwinism. there are 92 house opponents. that s a real challenging place for republicans to be in and defend these seats. that s a different situation. if you look at john than allen had a great piece where he showed where the president was going and how the states and how it tied into congressional distric districts. from that standpoint, wherever i see the president goes into a state like montana for instance, and it has a big impact on matt rosendale s numbers against john testra. matt rosendale will be the senator if president trump goes to montana the weekend before the election. it s like nothing i ve seen before. obama didn t have that effect or george w. bush didn t have that impact. when he goes into a state or an area in certain states and certain areas. the president certainly does wi very well in areas that are not, shall we say, densely populated. he does well he s not doing
the kavanaugh vote, there was that white house briefing with sarah huckabee sanders, and of course some days by and large are golf days. our chief white house correspondent hallie jackson stuck around for us. chris wilson is a gop pollster who worked for texas politicians, including george w. bush and ted cruz. b politics reporter for the daily beast, which is ten years old. did you know that? more on that maybe later as well. dana millbank political columnist for the washington post. next time we ll buy you a plane ticket or a train ticket. so the president clearly thinks these midterms are all about him. look at what he said in all of these rallies when he says a vote for x dacandidate is actuay a vote for me. he has latched himself to the midterms. what he did over the last 24 hours is try to distance himself. i think he has a better
of these white people. mostly white people embarrassing himself and embarrassing americans but mostly african-americans. kanye s mother is rolling over in her grave. ainsley: okay. that s just mean. that is so mean-spirited. i m sure his mom would be so proud of her son sitting across from the president. even if he didn t vote or even if she didn t support him. steve: think back to after katrina and kanye west famously at that telethon said that george w. bush didn t care about black people. and he was a darling of the left. actually, and now he is being demonized because he is embracing a republican president. yesterday, he actually kind of referred to the meant about george bush after katrina. he said i regretted those. you know, istlesz emotional at thi was emotional atthe time. i was programmed to think from a welfare mentality. brian: candace will be on. she talks to him about a
