Good day, everyone. Im Andrea Mitchell live on the trail in nashua, New Hampshire, for president clintons First Official Public Campaign event for his wife hillary. Speaking moments ago, in a state that has been very good to the clintons. But vermont neighbor Bernie Sanders is proving to be a tougher than expected competitor this time around. Donald trump has raised issues that neither bill or Hillary Clinton wants to confront. Nbcs chuck todd took a look at president clintons successes and failures as a campaign surrogate last time around. Chuck joins me now. Chuck, lets talk about bill clinton as a surrogate. Is he a political asset or liability . Look, hes clearly an asset, okay . Lets not pretend. This is not i dont think even when people thought he was a liability, i think in 2000, you can ask al gore and i think people realize he would have been more of an asset in certain places. I thought today, his best moments are what he can say about Hillary Clinton that she doesnt say abou
Reset works. Lets see if this one qualifies. Trump Shuffles Team late in the game. Okay. Very good. All right. Did you rehearse this . No. Its pretty good. Heres something also. Come on, this is not looking good. A few u. S. Swimmers, is it herald ford jr. May need to hire you as their attorney. Do you have a theory . I never had a gun pointed to my face. Maybe you forget how it was pointed, how close it was. Or the appallgist herald ford. You were accused for being for mr. Bannon. I was. When we walked off the set you said you were getting absolutely pounded on twitter. Says campaign rookie, you had a lot of people saying this is the worst guy in the world. Most horrible human being ever and then we saw an article saying this is the most dangerous man like in the westernhemisphere. I never met bannon. He has been heavily covered. He has been heavily covered. Is he as bad as everyone says he is . He certainly is a controversial figure to someone we have never worked. To be at the top o
Her white house that way. I mean, we would be hearing it about it, well, nonstop from republicans who are going back three or four years still attacking Hillary Clinton because they dont want to look at whats happening right now in front of them.

I have an exclusive interview with the secretary general to get his reaction and to talk about his broader relations with President Trump. And also, what can possibly be done about north korea . Hope is the last thing we can afford to lose. But first, heres my take. With his decision to move the American Embassy to jerusalem President Trump did something puzzling for a person who claims to be a great dealmaker. He made a massive preemptive concession to one side in a complicated negotiation without getting anything for it in return.

Go for it . The president s heart is right on this issue. I think hes got a good understanding of what will sell. And every time we have a proposal, it is yanked back by Staff Members.
