that robert mueller cannot testify about any deliberations and that means if there was a discussion among robert mueller and his associates about the possibility of the president firing them all and strategic decisions they might have made, robert mueller is not allowed to testify to that according to the justice department. not clear if he has to follow that. as has been clear in many important ways, the united states no longer has a justice department. donald trump has a large personal law firm in washington. that s emblematic as a nation. we have seen institution after institution subverted. institutions that are supposed to serve the needs of we the people. we have seen institutions after institutions subverted to the personal needs and narcissim and ego of this one man. the justice department comes just one more to bite the dust. one of the things that strike
combination of these things. you have the president and what he said about western style liberalism and we ll put up the video again, because this weekend there was an unusual rule that we saw of ivanka trump on the trip. the french government actually releasing this awkward video where she seems to be inserting herself into a conversation with the canadian prime minister and the head of the imf. it looks strange on the outside from the most basic level. what could it possibly be like on the inside? can you just give me your thought bouubble on this? the first question on the aud oh accurate envy that i think president trump demonstrates is with dictator of dictator from kim jong-un to mohammad bin salman, the crown prince of saudi arabia, the president seems to see dmoem maes as kind of an exercise in narcissim. he does seem to be more
president does think he sees people cheering him on. i have been looking at the pictures out there in fresno with pete buttigieg and i look at the top hat performances of the president in white tie and melania looks wonderful like a scene from the ascot in my fair lady. a big effort went into this and he messes it up dumping on the mayor of london and all the effort to make himself look like a world leader. it turns out that narcissim and peytonism don t mix well with diplomacy. he didn t restrain himself. he has been prepped to say don t violate protocol. he went on the howard stern show and joked about having sex with princess di. you can imagine people were trying to handle him and don t joke and don t say anything.
down. i was one of the most closed down people. you talk about trauma and talk about it in relationship to president trump, that donald trump is a person who experienced a lot of trauma early on. yeah. from what i know of donald trump and his relationship with his father, it sounds traumatic. it sounds like the father was very domineering, the father ex-pengted a lot of him, hill tear school. you read these dribs and drabs, i can assure you he s been traumatized. donald s level of narcissim is so strong, he has trouble with empathy. we know that. i wish he would go into psycho therapy. i would be so proud of him if he did. he never would. there s no way i do not believe he s ever done psychotherapy. because he s demonstrating a lot of the behaviors that i recognize. do you think he s the same person that you interviewed now?
disservice by listening to rudy giuliani it s the hardest thing. he speaks on behalf of supposedly donald trump. our country is being destroyed by the narcissim of old men. that s like the theme of today, roger stone, trump the fact he is simultaneously tactical but frantic and sad, those are both realities so i think whether we watch him, it s this constant effort to figure out you know that it s demeaning, the discourse and it s muddying the waters so i think it is this question how do you absorb a culture of lies that trump has placed on the public and we re forced to reckon with it you can t ignore it. the ability for us to talk through why it s so hugely problematic. i think that there is something about the fact he is out of control to some extent and that frantic sadness. we re all afraid of dying but we don t need the psycho drama.
