paying off porn stars and women with whom you ve had affairs, putting that to one side, isn t the reason jeffrey, you re not going to put that to the side. i m not making excuses for donald trump having affair with a porn star. i mean, that s disgusting. it it s taudry. i m addressing the question as to what is the illegality involve here. the illegality is not the contribution, the illegality is not reporting it. i m not condoning it and don t suggest that i am. you say his problem is he keeps lying and his explanations about it. isn t the reason he s lying because he did something bad in the first place? if he did nothing wrong, why doesn t he tell a straightforward version of the truth? he did something bad in having an affair with a porn star, i agree with you, that s horrible. santa ana i thi shan? i think it s important to differentiate here. it s not a political question. it s a legal question because of the timing of what he s doing,
she s beautiful, she s, you know, that s his daughter and she should be proud of her. he said i was beautiful like her and, you know, you re a smart girl. and there wasn t a lot of comparing, but there was some, yeah. i heard a lot about her. yeah. did that strike you as odd in any way or you know, i know a lot of people think it s odd. i you know, there s been some comments i ve heard in the news he s said about her. i think those comments are wrong. but do i think it s strange that a father would love his daughter so much that he brags about her? no, i brag about my dog that much. i guess some people seeing this are not going to believe that you had a relationship. hope hicks has said, categorically, you did not have a relationship, there s no truth to this. mm-hmm. when you heard that denial, what did you think? well, with i thi i think somebody s lying and i can tell you it s not me. it s a little hurtful, but at the same time, i have to understand, if he were to h
why would it work now, clinton failed, bush failed, obama failed. i won t fail. in some ways, we re waiting for defense and pentagon officials to react to this but do you think, andrew, that the president is trying to lessen expectations about the type of communications that had been active between the u.s. and north korea? i think it s certainly possible. but i think it was pretty remarkable that you had secretary of tillerson s spokesperson responding to the president almost in realtime with a tit for tat. and then another tweet from the president and then another sfons so i thi response so i think he s undermining secretary tillerson s trip to beijing. when we went through that litany, we didn t even get into alabama and the fact that luther strange lost to roy moore and
