i ll explain. headline is potential test moany i from president trump himself. the white house is divided between attempts to assert order and slide into chaos. first on the order side, tonight nbc news is reporting interesting news, trump s lawyers negotiating with mueller and fbi investigators about this interview, key questions, trump interviewed directly by mueller, not automatic. legal standard for president to be interviewed. leverage in the fight. where potential interview can take place, optics can be hugely important. and of course, topics. as for length, if you know donald trump, it s a key issue how long you negotiate for interviewing someone who knows how to filibuster. they want to assert discipline over inherptly unpredictable russia probe. at the same time there s the other story everyone has heard
him and that impressed me in this appearance is he s so quick. it s not just his time on the set piece that he s delivering, in an interview, he s quick, whether he s interviewing someone and reacting off of what they said or whether he s reacting from dave letterman. i think that will make him ultimately a real success because i always during the colbert report i stick around to see the interview because he s great. he s so fast and a listener, which is different than only having your prepared jokes. exactly. sort of like you. thank you for that, abbey. you should talk about yourself. right out of my mouth, good one. you want me to listen to you right now? no. yes, actually. are we going to have an awkward silence? he lives for awkward. you think i can t listen, i just did some listening. no, you didn t. congratulations. can we get a shot of krystal, she wants to be listened to as well. there we go, okay. this was unplanned. that s why it was so weird. up n
