Former GOP representative Joe Scarborough and Mika Brezinski interview newsmakers, politicians and pundits about the issues of the day. Days before according to the leak, he says there was a meeting with donald junior, with Jared Kushner, with Paul Manafort, with yates and possibly two others in which they, out of the presence of the president discussed the meeting with the russians. We checked with their lawyers. The ones we could check with which was four of the six. That meeting never, ever took place. It didnt happen. Theres no second meeting here . Its highly unlikely. I always have to leave the option open as a lawyer. In case they come across something that startles us or feels some of the things we feel are important. Whats he saying . Whats he saying . Run that clip again. I actually, the words. Try and listen to exactly what he is saying. And
this early in the day? begins one segment talking about meeting that took place in the very same segment, same 30-second clip goes from there was a meeting a meeting that occurred we wanted to get out to get ahead of the news and 10 seconds later called it along alleged meeting. as if the meeting he referred to didn t take place. what time of night was he interviewed for that? that s my question. i don t know. i will say, we have there s that question. a good one. some of the worst v.o. of rudy giuliani i ve seen, i think. we need come on. look at that. get some good shots of the guy. what s he doing with that ring? world series ring? pulling it or something? heidi, do we need to play it again? do you have any idea what he was saying, and what would your follow-up have been if you were interviewing him? play even more. not only did he confirm a meeting none of us were talking about but actually flashed out some of the details in those meetings. that apparently michael
yeah. and the question everybody has is, why has he not pled yet? absolutely no defense. have him dead to center. after he goes through this in virginia, he ll go through it in d.c. short answer, i have no idea. but there s so much apparent evidence against him that you either he s going to spend the rest of his life in prison or he s going to have to do some sort of a deal and i don t know i m not a lawyer. like you, i am not a lawyer. what the sequence has to be here. clearly they have a lot on mr. manafort. clearly they do. it s interesting. when everything seems to collide with donald trump and things start going really bad. he deflects. he decides he s going to take a meeting with a group of tirendtir tyrants. it s a playbook. it is. and at a particular time, stormy
independents conclude he s the only barrier to a left wing government led by elizabeth warren. that s pretty insightful. i do not read wall street journal op-ed. haven t read it for 30 years. that s very interesting thinking. so on point. i mean, this is exactly what could happen. i don t think trump s support is not there. the interesting thing is what it captures is trump s amorality. trump has no loyalty to anybody but himself. but how do you feel about that, that s a reality that could play out, whether he s moral or not. but you re right. the fact that he s so amoral the thing about the republican party he s a democrat. please. a democrat please. you mortally wound me. gave money to the dnc when you were there? i don t think so. if he did that wasn t a fair question.
actually occurred. so by the way donald trump may not care about what the facts are. he may be in the white house that talks about an alternate version of facts. 91% of republicans may be the same way. bob mueller cares about facts and so do the judges deciding these cases. meanwhile, walter, you have rudy who is not just clearly is going rogue on the white house press office and just calling up his mega phone to make an announcement on fox news, not to be grilled in anyway or given a tough question in anyway, allowed to make announcements and then change those announcements and then devalue the truth, transform the truth, change the facts, bring in more alternative facts what ever you want to do, whatever he chooses. what s the point of the press briefing at this point? the white house press briefing where reporters wait every day to try to understand what s
