Michael flynn. End the investigation. Im joined noud by ken dilanian with nbc news it, Natasha Bertrand who covers is the russia probe with the atlantic and jill winebanks, all three of you, i want to know what you make of these two witnesses being called, comey already and sessions very soon. And then the president. Chris, what i think this shows is mueller is accelerating sat ob struskz justice aspect of the probe. The three pillars of this investigation, it looks like the Obstruction Case is going down the track further and faster than the collusion and Money Laundering. Theres a lot we dont see but the obstruction witnesses we know who they are and what stories they have to tell. Its not a surprise that comey is a key witness. Whats surprising to me is its happening now and seems like its speeding up. Natasha, explain how you see what kind of a case mueller is going to make here with these hot witnesses now. It seems like ken said hes moving more quickly along the obstruction path.
Michael Smerconish tackles the American political and news stories of the week, offering only one kind of talking points his own. I would be remiss if i did not say it in the outset. Here you are of another summer of extreme weather. Well, we can talk about that in a second, lets talk about this whole question of coverage of trump. I dont know who was the moron from fox news who made that point of how did that work in 2016. Thats the question that i would ask is how is it working in 2018 . What happened in 2016, donald trump was running against Hillary Clinton. We know there were a lot of moderate democrats, suburban women, and just enough that in a choice between trump and hillary ready to say, Really Dont Like Hillary and i think i will take a chance on trump. What has been happening over the last two years . Trump has been locked at 43 approval and around 50, 53 disapproval. I think wonderful key reasons for that, and we saw in the alabama election and the pennsylvania election and
Unpresident ial behavior that trump exhibits most in his rally and tweets that we excessively cov cover. Bring on the coverage. The reaction like places of fox news, is this what everyone says leading up to the 2016 election. What a great idea, remember what happened the last time the media covered every tweet and rally and every word of donald trump and every wink and nudge became apart of the medias snarknato, they elected donald trump, the bozos. Is it a No Win Situation or if you are the president , no lose. I want to know what you think. Smerconish. Com, answer this question at this hour. Does covering every one of president trumps speeches,
rallies and tweets and utter rans hurt or help the gop and trumps reelection. Thank you for being late. Tom, great to have you back. I would be remised if i did not say it in the out set. Here you are of another summer of extreme weather. Well, we can talk about that in a second, lets talk about this whole question of coverage of trump. I dont
