infamous lawyer and former mccarthy aide. wherever i hear that people are failing to act on fbi information about communists he said, listen, i followed your career, and you re a bit crazy like i am and you stand up to the establishment. can i come see you? and i said, sure. cohn was one of trump s first really influential connections. he had no scruples, whatsoever. none. just get the deal done and do whatever it takes to get the deal done. so trump used him as his lawyer to go and cut deals. i think donald likes associating with people who are brass knuckle. tough characters, uncompromising characters. young trump s ambition was reflected in his early business ventures. well, my first big deal in manhattan was probably the convention center. in 1973, trump saw in the newspaper that the penn central rail yards were filing for bankruptcy. i got an option to the penn central land and was able to
look at young trump. look at old pictures of donald trump. do i have to? perhaps after the show with a nice shaw sheblis. it better be nice. it better be like 1998. nick, you said you are glad trump was the marriage ref. i do too. it misses pisses me off there is a fact trekker. i don t know. have you seen part of the interest ropings. i. i don t follow. they have a fact voice. is that on discovery or something? something like that. what is ironic is there is
he said it, basically compared assad and his use of chemical weapons with adolf hitler. so it s pretty clear they see them both certainly as menacing in terms of our foreign policy. what more would you like to hear? well, i m encouraged that frankly that president trump and secretary tillerson and ambassador haley have moved from a position two weeks ago of saying that we re just going to have to live with assad and we need to focus on isis to recognizing that assad is a brutal murderer. but i think we need to have clarity. how much farther are we willing to go? the white house was saying today that russia almost certainly knew that syria was about to carry out a chemical weapons attack. are we going to ratchet up sanctions against russia for their ongoing support for assad? are we willing to use force against assad if he uses barrel bombs or other conventional weapons against his civilian population as he s been doing for years? and how are we going to engage our vital allies across
murderous regime in syria. we re in the sixth year of assad s war against his own people. he s killed more than 400,000 syrians and turned millions into refugees. i am hopeful that secretary tillerson s visit to moscow, his meeting with their minister, lavrov, and pozssibly putin is n opportunity to make it clearer exactly what position they intend to take. obviously sean spicer didn t have a good day. i think it was wise of him to correct his comments, and my hope is tha we c now focus on working with president trump and his adniration, those of us in congress on the foreign relations committees, and help them focus and sharpen what their policy and strategy is going to be because they ve made such contradictory statements just in the last two weeks. well, the secretary of state tillerson said we re not going to be able to live with an assad regime, and the press secretary, sean spicer, no matter how badly
