can he be in trouble for that, though? it s so well-lawyered where he didn t kind of say anything. is that the kind of thing that congress is interested in investigating? he still could and the key is whether congress believes it can prove that it s completely unreasonable that he did not remember the substance of that conversation. if, for example, those conversations happened many times and under very serious circumstances. but as a lawyer who has to go to court, it feels like proving a negative, right? that they would have to prove that donald trump really did remember even though he said he doesn t. be warned, all witnesses who think they can just claim they don t remember. often, circumstantial evidence will show that it s absolutely unbelievable that you don t remember something, especially something important that you talked about on numerous occasions. so for those witnesses who claim amnesia, beware. it can come back to bite you. donald trump talked about wikileaks a
obviously it s been an avalanche of news. the beat with ari melber do so. as long as he doesn t violate starts right now. any law regarding confidential you re going to need all six information or classified hours of primetime, everybody information, the president gets is, to unpack everything. to use who he wants to. let s break this down. it s huge and we have some i m show you exactly where special breakdowns of it. i haven t seen anything quite mulvaney basically owns himself, like that presser in a while, which is why since we ve come on chuck. thank you. the air they put out a new as mentioned, we re statement walking this back. reporting on the beat right now but what he said might be a much after this bombshell admission, more accurate reflection of what happened than this new lawyered plus new impeachment witnesses statement. listen closely to that key point coming forward. much later in the hour i have an from mulvaney. exclusive interview with a well take a listen. p
interview. material distinction there. when potus claims unprecedented cooperation, you heard it in the interview but let s it rate it now. what mr. mueller wanted most and needed most he never got from this president. the president never answered a single question in person and his lawyered written responses never even touched the issue of obstruction. that s why the written answers were found to be inadequate by the mueller team. some campaign folks deleted relevant communications. not helpful. others were convicted of lying to investigators. not helpful. even when this president then stumbled today in a tweet in what appeared to be an admission of the basic threat that russia attacked our election and did so to help him, he then had to backpedal to this. russia didn t help me at all. russia if anything i think helped the other side. we know russia not only tried to help the trump campaign and

whether he will cooperate or not remains to be seen, but i would not be surprised if they did subpoena him. what did you think of the relatively tame reaction coming from the white house? whenever anything is tame coming from the president you know it has been lawyered. so i think that there was a different tone coming from the president. he didn t talk about the treasonist investigators as he always does. he didn t say no collusion, no obstruction. he did say there was insufficient evident which is different from the words we heard in the past. when you hear a president who is low key it is because somebody is saying to him keep it a little quieter and he might have been listening. let s see if he continues to listen to that advice. stand by. everybody stand by. our special coverage will continue right after a quick break. hey! it s me! your dry skin!
