Discussion, particularly the new reporting in the film. Weve had a lot of feedback on it. Im really glad we did it. Were now talking about hopefully reairing it some more times on msnbc. But a lot of people have been asking specifically about the timing. Why do this now. Well, we specifically did not time the new documentary to coincide with the anniversary of the invasion of iraq. The invasion of iraq of course in march 19th, 2003. The invasion of iraq and the war in iraq are obviously a big deal and a specific thing that is worth examining in its own right. But what we did with hubris was not tell the story of the iraq war, but rather the story of what made us start that war. So we didnt peg to it the tenyear anniversary of the invasion, we pegged it earlier than that. We pegged it to the lying to us by our own government that made that invasion possible. And that irreducible truth, that we were told by our government that we had to go to war because of things they said were true abo

Thats not going to change the president s instincts. He is the malevolent fury. The presidency, that presidency, is over. Those are the words of President Trumps newly ousted chief strategist steve bannon.

Every day it is going to be a fight, and that is what im proudest about donald trump. The problem here isnt bannon. The problem is trump. This man does not seem to me to have what we would normally think of as a soul. He has an open sore. I think hes in a position right now where he is much more isolated than he realizes. General kelly can change the people in the white house, but thats not going to change the president s instincts. He is the malevolent fury. The presidency, that presidency, is over. Those are the
