president obama used to travel or meet with foreign lieders, we used it as an opportunity to advance u.s. national security. at this point whether it is at the g-7, g-20, what have you, president trump s trips are not a waste of taxpayer dollars, they create more work back home. you take any number of these meetings. let s start with the putin immediating. he made clear that puditin is h paradigm. joking is putin s treatment of the media and how he wishes he could treat the media. he isn t funny. he said getting rid of them. exactly. president putin imprisons journalists and engrosses in gross human rights abuses. we shouldn t want to have that in common. nor should we joke about it. let s go through the others. the kim meeting which trump announced. i m going to swing over. it s nearby. hop skip and a jump.
the debate we should be having? we ll ask the guardian s ed pi l kl dington. and we ll talk syria and preview the president s putin immediating with chuck todd. bo biden joins us. all that when now starts after this. la s known definitely for its traffic, congestion, for it s smog. but there are a lot of people that do ride the bus. and now that the busses are running on natural gas, they don t throw out as much pollution to the earth. so i feel good. i feel like i m doing my part to help out the environment.
