talk to this guy, make a deal? it makes no sense. i think a critical part of that goes to the man himself, a man who has professed a lack of interest in reading, a lack of interest in being briefed. what s important about those two things, particularly in the job of president is that you have to absorb and internalize so that you can assess and then go out and figure out what your policy is going to be, how you want to move forward on these things. i think what is happening now is he is getting all of this information, he s beginning to see just how difficult this is to do, to put this summit on in the time span they want to put it on in to get the outcome he wants. and north korea is not necessarily playing ball the way he thought they would, saying and doing some things that are problematic. then there is south korea. south korea is moving forward. i think there is also the concern that south korea is going to come up, the south korean president is going to be the one who is going
it works. but it all goes back to his belief that he did nothing with the russians in the 2016 campaign. but these are two distinct universes, right. the universe of what donald trump deeply believes and may very sincerely believe happened, and the universe of what actually happened. not saying the same thing. i know, exactly. but i mean, so even his friends are talking to him on television. we turned on some sound of governor chris christie who is a close outside advisor to the president. but even he seems to be dispensing legal advice on television. i ve told him many times that there s no way to make an investigation like this shorter, but there s lots of ways to make it longer, and he s executed on a number of those ways to make it longer. bob mueller himself is not a partisan. he s an honest guy, a hard working guy, he s smart. and you can t argue that the investigation hasn t been effective so far. a number of guilty pleas, couple of indictments in a year. it s pretty g
or not? or just talk about not disclosing? i m not clear on that. i think the white house wants the name so they can leak it. well, yeah. they do. is it part of satisfying the freedom caucus members we were talking about at the beginning of the hour, part of speeding up document production is to get some of these agitators off the backs of the justice department? is that part of what happens if this rosenstein, once again, showing that he is sort of the ultimate survivor here. after rosenstein was named as the deputy attorney general back in 2017, comey told one of his friends, he said, i m not sure about rod. you know, i think he s a good guy, but he says he s really the ultimate survivor. he d been u.s. attorney under different administrations. he said i think rod may be willing to do things politically to keep his position. and here rosenstein is navigating these incredibly difficult things the past year. still the deputy attorney general, still overseeing the
re-defended his vote for the gop health care plan. i totally understand it and empathize with the fear, the anxiety because we are talking about health care. it s a very personal situation. reporter: closer to home, the president s weekend home in bedminster, new jersey, an unusual drive-by protested saturday, a line of a few dozen cars passed outside president trump s golf resort where local police prevented them from stopping. demonstrators then met nearby. want the people of this community to know that we don t all agree with him. reporter: others defended the longtime working resident who is now president. he s a hard working guy that has a day off. reporter: the president is at his golf resort and he is more than a golf course. he and members of his family have homes on the property, and he has worked with the community of bedminster to get an
that they obviously went to his apartment, they looked around, but would you rule it out or is there something there that is part of this sort of investigative track that may help lead them to where he might be? right. i wouldn t rule it out. i mean, it could be just bragging or trying to talk big. a lot of the guys talk big when they become national news and talk big to their friends. but he also could go in some abandoned building or place where there are homeless people and murder multiple people. and nobody may know and nobody may report it. it s possible. right now there s no indication of it. it s just a sad case of mr. godwin s murder. when you see that video, mr. godwin is the face of america. retired, hard-working guy and just murdered in cold blood on the street like that, awful, awful case. i hope he s caught today before anybody else is injured. as we all do. thank you so much, appreciate
