something useful. there s a similar dynamic between don jr. and his father. it s like they did it for daddy, both of them. well, that is rob goldstone. they said there was no ask by either the russian government or russian intelligence to set up the meeting. anyone who says there was is not telling the truth. you were talking during the commercial about a story related to donald trump in 2013. they got together, the families got together to do the miss universe pageant in moscow. the night before the miss universe pageant, goldstone tells an amazing story. the top people are in moscow. he s asked a question, donald trump is asked a question about the greek bailout. before that, have you heard of the apprentice ?
lawyer, they have spent over a week to two weeks reporting this and talking to a lot of people who remember this behavior. even if they don t remember this specific incident, but at this point, nobody is on the record. that is the challenge they are facing. thank you. garrett, another busy week for you. thanks for being on. a quick flashback. nearly three weeks ago, may zee hirono asked judge brett kavanaugh this question. have you ever made unwanted request for sexual favors, verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature. no. i m joined now by senator hirono. you asked that same question starting back in march or april. it s something you have been consistent on. earlier. you talked about the fact you wanted to ask that of everybody. yes. now that this new allegation came out, i would like your
trump presidency. much of washington, much of the country is gripped by the slow rolling kavanaugh story. the president was headed into a session and got a question about brett kavanaugh. here is how he responded. i think it could be, there s a chance this could be one of the most single most unfair, unjust things to happen to a candidate for anything. i am with judge brett kavanaugh and i look forward to a vote. for people to come out of the woodwork from 36 years ago and 30 years ago and never mention it, all of a sudden, it happens. in my opinion, it s totally political, totally political. reporter: so, if it wasn t abundantly clear, the gloves are off. they are anticipating this thursday meeting to happen
other people in the meeting say he made the comment about wearing a wire sarcastically. apparently this infuriated the president, as you know, hallie, the president s advisers were telling him not to do anything here. so, rosenstein has been summoned, was summoned a short time ago to come to the white house for a meeting. the question is, will he resign or will he be fired? my guess is he will be fired. he will not resign. so, if the white house insists that he go, then what he s saying is you have to fire me. maybe they will stand down. maybe this will be a meeting that comes with no resolution. but it does appear, from what we are told, the white house wants him out, one way or the other. stand by for a second. worth noting, the president is obviously mad at the white house. he is in new york in manhattan for the general assembly meetings. his senior staff is at the white
kavanaugh is innocent. however, last week they were doing mock hearings, murder boards and running him through tough questions and preparing him for the eventuality that another person, anonymous or a name attached could come forward. i think the white house, while it was surprised a bit yesterday, is not completely taken aback and sticking with brett kavanaugh. that s the key point. on the left, you are seeing the protests in the hallway. josh, does brett kavanaugh survive to thursday? past that? no one can say at this point. that s an unfair question. i was asking you to look into a crystal ball. my reporting says the president is ready to fight in a way we have not seen him fight so far. you can see from the public comments in the last 48 hours or so, a market shift in the way the republicans and the president approached this. you saw for the first week or so, we have been talking about
