i m not going to get into the processes you how that s being do done. two questions. hally s question. how has the president made it clear. so that s his position. he said that he has nothing further to add. i understand. there s nothing further to add. my second question is has he made any other inquiries about the russia investigation to fbi officials? i haven t asked him about that, but i m not aware. you said you would get back on who questioned a dipper between him and comey. i apologize, i will follow up on that today. one of the things that s important to clear something up. i think that there was clearly bipartisan support that jim comey wasn t up to the job. the president has every right to
fire a person because he believed director comey lacked the judgment and the decision making skills and wasn t up to the job. the president s reaction to this to what his position has been completely misrepresented. you think about what he said to nbc news. he said, one, he didn t care this action would make matters worse for him. it might evenen lengthen out the investigation because he would take action in fire iing him. he wants the investigation to be done ab shoutly properly 37 and and he might eastern confuse people he would take action knowing it would make matters worse for him. the actions that he took, he knew could be detrimental to himself, but none of those things mattered because the president had to be do to the american people because he believes that jim comey was the wrong man for that position. we have to be clear as to the reason that the president took the actions that he did. he knew that what he did could be detrimental to himself. it could lengthen the investiga
again, it s not a a question of it s at what point you have a house committee and senate committee, the fbi, i don t know why you need additional resources when you already have three entities. 80% of people want this and don t have confidence. with all due respect, the bottom line is you have three entities looking into this matter. the president s position has been clear there s two issues at hand. one is the involvement of russia potentially in with respect to an election and the president s involvement. the fbi director ask others have made it clear that the president is not a subject of anything. i think we have plenty of e entities looking into that. two questions for you. on north korea s there a new sense of urgency for president trump to act following a successful missile test over the weekend. i think there s no question that north korea continues to
talk about this. once one of the things we re going to be hearing about today is the replacement for jim co y comey, the fbi director. it seems like there are many names out there, but it s really unclear what s going to happen here. very unclear. you can see that the president and the brief meeting they had had with the crown prince was asked one quick question about the fbi director. he said the process is, quote, moving rapidly. you have the four candidates whom we understand actually were interviewed over the weekend. and what s going to happen with that is a big question. also a big question is how democrats in the senate or if they are going to try to put up a a fight. you saw over the weekend the top democrat in the senate chuck schumer sort of agree with the
keep losing. and when you see hillary clinton going out there and talking about how it s comey s fault and how it s vladimir putin s fault and she s a member of resistance, as a republican, are you happy? does it make you excited like they will stick around and keep blaming other people? i think as a woman who is in elective office,disap ponts pointing to me. hillary clinton has the opportunity to role model graciousness, but she is choosing to live and stew in bitterness and to blame somebody else. and throughout my career, i ve seen over and over again eventually you say this didn t work or i didn t can win or i am sorry and you move on. you accept things, you own it, you move on temperature and she is missing a great opportunity by not doing that. listen to her, be it s always somebody else s fault. listen to her another day for the election she would have won. so obviously what happened in
