jesse: i did the only thing i know how to do went back to the streets and asked some basic questions of average americans. here s a taste. who is the vice president? i don t know. and i really don t care. oh oh my god. oh, man.

this is nonsense. this is outrageous. it should end right now. sean: former u.s. attorney joe digenova on the program eviscerating the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein and robert mueller. the mainstream media deserves blame. joining us the law professor jonathan turley who had a great comment on the hill.com. when will the media accept that trump is not a criminal target? i will let you answer your own question. they seem to not want to accept the reality. it s been over a year. we have been looking into this in varying ways. there is a troubling pathology in the news where people seem to be unwilling to cover what is positive news for president trump. there is not positive news as well. but that rather one-sided account is getting increasingly alarming. the fact is that there is not a strong credible case of crime that is emerging from
doesn t read and he doesn t study and he doesn t prepare. david: this president doesn t read? joe from the hill.com joining me now on this. it s extraordinary. i mean the president doesn t read? these comments are so beyond, joe and what s interesting is it was only 12 hours earlier when everybody was saying that this is one of the best things that any president has ever done with regard to north korea. it s almost as if, david, a memo went around like you guys are being a little bit too nice to this guy at this point that s not usually the game plan, like remember 2008 senator phil graham from texas said that we re a nation of whiners, and he got a lot of blowback, but i think that saying can apply to our media, we re very good and profoundly accomplished at complaining about things and wining about things but solutions are very offered and look the criticism is coming from the left and ride the national review editorial board doesn t think this is a good
