Whoo all right. Top of the hour. Good morning, everyone. Im poppy harlow. Im jim sciutto. Many president s have been in trumps position, and few have demonstrated their contempt for traveling abroad. The president leaves the white house for a g20 summit in argentina. If he stops to speak to while saving for the things reporters, you will hear him start to finish right here on whenshe was pregnant,ter failed, inlaws were coming, a little bit of water,
cnn. New reporting reveals what it really it rocked our world. I had no idea Paul Manafort lied to the amount of damage that water could do. Investigators about a
Faith in mueller. A lot of people. That is mueller saying, curious to see if democrats will accept this conclusion since that came from mueller. On obstruction, katy, i fully understand if there is a debate and dispute over this, because this was not muellers definitive word. This was bob barrs word. This is where theyll be a fight. Again, politically the toothpaste is already out of the tube as they say. Yeah. So, you know, this isnt getting resolved in this country until november 2020. No doubt about that. I think what we can take from this is that the investigations will continue in congress, but ultimately and who knows how long it will take to potentially see the rest of this report, or what we are able to see, but ultimately this is going to go to voters in 2020 and what the president s going to do, chuck, and the Steve Bannons made this clear and anybody who followed the 2016 campaign would assume as well, hes going to use this to his advantage and the way

Youre looking live at capitol hill where in just a few moments we expect to hear from house
speaker nancy pelosi, jerry nadler, and adam schiff after muellers historic testimony. The biggest question perhaps is what do democrats do now . As we speak, weve been getting tape of the president who is speaking to reporters at the white house. No surprise he
they would never let trump talk to mueller, because he believes he is his own best advocate and defendant, but in actuality, he is not. his lawyers know he can t control what he says. how it is possible that even after losing, his lawyers can t get him to stop? and how do you you alluded to this, that the damages could be exorbitant, because it seems at this point there is no braking system for him to stop defaming e. jean carroll. this case is a really interesting conundrum for the lawyers on both sides of the case. on the one hand, presumably folks who represent someone in a defamation trial that is lost advise their client strongly to stop repeating that defamation, to stave off the additional damages that they might face. on the other hand, we see e. jean carroll s lawyers having to make some determinations about what kinds of remedies to try to seek in this very politically
