his birther issue. this is how he responds. look, i read, you know, russian state media during the french campaign, watching the macron victory, the french campaign. it was brutal. the fake stuff and the lies that the russian media was putting out about macron. one wonders if emmanuel macron will try to school donald trump in the effects of the russians in an election. i think he will. i think they are genuinely concerned about the instability that this is causing in our electoral systems. i think the world wants to hear president trump say, i agree, and i want to work on this, as well, rather than it s a hoax or i won the election. those are not the response that s are appropriate or legitimate for many leaders anymore. this is the combative nature of president trump. we got another glimpse, again, with reuters yesterday talking about the meeting don jr. took despite the e-mail warning that
we re told. a bulk of this meeting, their meetings will be about syria. we know about security, rather. we know that they will dine this evening at a michelin-starred restaurant in the eiffel tower with their wives. on climate change in particular, the french president was very critical of the u.s. president going so far as to say on camera make the planet great again. a pointed jab at this president. reporter: it was. it was definitely. and he did so in english, which is extremely unusual for a french president, twisting that campaign s slogan, send it back donald trump s way. there s almost been a mocking tone. how will donald trump feel about a man who clearly had jabs at him and not only on that occasion but others, as well. who so clearly explained the differences between the two positions. and who yet hopes to be able to
a fascinating day ahead. thank you very much. helping us break down the politics, historian and professor at princeton university, julian selezer. what s remarkable to me is this is the second presidential trip in a week. this president on the campaign trail disparaged traditional democratic allies, disparaged our alliance and relationship with europe, who backed out of the paris climate accord, who famously said he represents people in pittsburgh, not paris. and he will be dining with someone who is younger than he is by 40 years. by 40 years, and who will be trying to educate him into the importance of american leadership on the global stage. it s kind of a remarkable set of circumstances it is remarkable. we don t know exactly why the president is making the decision and whether this is an escape from the bad news in washington and taking a trip overseas to change the conversation, or is it a more pragmatic shift from the white house, realizing you
anything else. reporter: for now, scientists will track the new iceberg to see if and when it melts. and maps they ll have to be redrawn for the ever-changing geography in antarctica, cnn, los angeles. wow. that s incredible. pictures are cool. and now emmanuel macron has another timely reason to bring up classmate change with president trump, perhaps. rock the vote. twice over, musician kid rock expressing interest in politics, tweeting that the website kidrockforsenate.com is for real and tweeting a major announcement in the future. he s been floated as an opponent for debbie stabenow of michigan, up for re-election next year. this happening as a campaign committee is set up to draft actor/wrester dwayne the rock johnson for president. a fan formally creating the run the rock 2020 committee.
there are not many people who would have held that meeting. if he is watching the news or reading the news as he does, i don t know exactly who he s heard say this. that s simply not the case. everyone has recommended or said almost that this was. the proper thing to do. they ve disagreed on how bad it was. there s not many people that are out there saying this is normal or this was wise. so this is the president spinning the news rather than reporting on what we ve at least heard from a majority of no remorse, though. no remorse. that is president trump. no remorse. fight, never concede. don t back down. when we heard from don jr., when he said in hindsight i would have done things differently. that surprised me. that is not the trump, inc., way. it is to fight, fight, fight. which makes me wonder if they
