Erin Burnett stays ahead of the headlines, delivering a show that is indepth and informative. We know this president does not likes to talk about money but doesnt like to talk about his personal finances. Tax returns a perfect example. And the president s tax returns, talked about it this could be significant . And significant is a key word you just used. Donald trump spent his life accumulating secrets and Spending Energy on nothing so much as keeping those things hidden, uncultivating and managing his image. Looking around, people who know Different Things intntimately. Know him well and are talking to investigators, prosecutors, he has no control.

too. In the Washington Post, the new york times, when backed into a corner, everyone around will tell you its when he lashes out. Seen the tweets.

I dont want testing. As long as theres no testing, we are happy. A number of officials tell nbc news that they are skeptical that north colin rkorea will fo through. The Intelligence Community is concerned that the president may let his desire for a deal and his new found affinity for chairman kim get the better of him. One official tell nbc news, one of the worst possible outcome is he makes some crazy deal pledging to withdraw u. S. Troops for a vague precipitation of denuclearization.
