it's a day when it usually flexes military muscle. a warning of merciless response if provoked by the trump administration. cnn has rare live access incompetent side what's possibly the most isolated country, sometimes referred to a the hermit kingdom. will ripley is live in pyongyang, we'll check in with him very shortly. as tepgnsions rise around t globe, president trump is at his mar-a-lago. what you might find surprising, the president spent one out of 3 1/2 days at that resort since his presidency much the same president who once said this. >> if i get elected president, i'm going to be in the white house a lot. i'm not leaving. we have deals to make. >> as you'll hear later in the show, president trump has done a 180 on a lot of things lately, including that statement. the president likes to call mar-a-lago the winter white house. in fact, he started calling his club that before he was sworn in. i suppose he can call it whatever he likes. it's his golf resort. but the truth is, there is only one white house. ah yes, this it is. the people's house built by slaves, paid for by taxpayers. today the white house announced something you should know about. they will keep the logs of people who visit the president secret. breaking with the precedent set by the obama administers. you can still see the obama visitor record online, but you won't see the trump visitor records, not now and not possibly for years, if at all. makes you wonder why, if there's nothing to hide. just another thing that makes you go, hmm. the administration says they're not making the logs public because of national security risks and privacy concerns and they say taking the public visitor logs down will save taxpayers $70,000 by 2020. $70,000 over three years. it cost an estimated 1 to $3 million every time the president takes a trip to mar-a-lago. seven trips and counting so far. how is that for fiscal conservatism. >> joe madden is the host of sirius xm. sinned dated talk radio host. thank you. >> he made multiple campaign promises this week. he now supports the export/import bank. he says china is not a currency manipulator and nato is no longer obsolete. so how do trump voters -- how are they feeling? what are they talking about? how do they feel about the flipflops? john fredericks, you first. >> don, thanks for having me. happy good friday and happy easter. joe, looking dapper. you're an amazing dresser. i have to say that. i aspire to you, joe, one day i can get there. look, trump had a great week this week. the promises made are the promises he's keeping. whether he said he was going to be unpredictable with what he did in syria. he canceled tpp. he's going on and on and doing what he said he was going to do up until today. those of us that know donald trump know this. you don't look at what he says. you look at what he does. you had jeff sessions going to the border earlier in the week. he said what donald trump said in the campaign. >> john, just for -- >> he did that -- >> just because of time, all right, in the interest of time, my question was, what are your listeners saying about the flipflops? >> they're good with the bombing in syria because that was the only action. ths a lot of talk, don. i'll tell you this, though. if trump were to go in to one of these middle eastern wars and send troops to syria, his base, which is all he has right now, that's all he's got remaining, he's got about 35% approval rating. it's his base. his base would unravel faster than a cat playing with a ball of yarn. >> okay. >> they've made that known to you. i got to get joe in. >> absolutely. >> joe, your listeners what do they think of donald trump 2.0? >> i think that quite honestly john just told the truth. his base is very, very upset. they don't want him in syria. you have to remember, when steve bannon joined that campaign, it was america first, it was a very nationalistic campaign. i think what has happened to donald trump because that's the other question, is that the world looks a whole lot different from the oval office. i'm somewhat surprised because what donald trump's other half is saying is that he's flexible. what my audience is saying, quite honestly, is this old term we used it a lot, he's flipflopping. why is he flipflopping? i don't know. i think it's in large part because he's got two competing forces within the west wing, bannon and kushner. they're at each other's throats. >> i want to talk about another radio guy because i say flipflops on campaign promises. some thinks he needs to flip key advisers. howard stern, the other radio guy says sean spicer should be fired for comparing hitler and assad. >> spicer managed to make assad look good yesterday. like he actually got him to look like not so bad for using chemical weapons on his own people. the discussion became, sean spicer how could you not know that hitler marched his own people, jews, gypsies, homosexua homosexuals, he gassed his own people, marched them into concentration camps and turned on what is in fact chemical gas. it is somewhat remarkable a guy this high up in the administration wouldn't know this. if i was trump, i would have fired the guy that day. >> the two guys know each other. donald trump was a regular on howard stern's show. should he be let go, john? should spicer go? >> absolutely not. look, the president told him he had 100% backing. sean spicer made a mistake in the way he handled this, no doubt. this is a veteran of the navy. he's got a family, two chirp. i know him for 20 years. there's not an anti-semitic bone in his body. he made a mistake. >> it's that he made a huge blunder and should he stay in that position. >> he made a huge mistake. but don, here's what he did. i know this is an unforgiving town. somebody does something, everybody wants blood in water, heads to roll. but, look, he made a mistake. what did he do? he got on your network with wolf blitzer, right? who is the son of two survivors of the holocaust. he looked right in the camera and he apologized. he made a sincere apology. i think he understands that he screwed up. he didn't say the right thing but he made an apology to the american people. i think we have to forgive and forget how much -- >> joe, how much longer does spicer last? >> i don't think spicer is going to last very long. it's not just this mistake he's made. but howard and i are on the same company with sirius xm. i'm in totally 100% agreement with him. candid candidly, i expect trump to say, look, you made a mistake. look, john, let's be honest. the reason he went on cnn and the other shows is simply because he was told to clean that stupid comment up. and it's just something that a press secretary doesn't do. but it's his total performances. when you talk to people and i do, who are in that washington correspondent press corps, i'm telling you what they're saying. they've never seen anything like it. i think his days are numbered. >> i have to ask you guys if your listeners are saying anything about what's happening in north korea. there's concern that north korea, a sixth nuclear weapon, they're having this big parade now, you're looking at the pictures from north korea. joe, you said oh, yeah. what are they saying? >> i think, and i've been listening very carefully. let me tell you we are a hair trigger maybe away from world war i ii. this, first of all, the guy who runs north korea is nuts. left and right agrees with that. the danger is not so much a preemptive strike against the united states. but would be a preemptive strike against seoul. the reality and think about this. this is a dictator who not only will have these weapons, but he could literally sell them to other entities and enemies of the united states. >> i've got to get john in. john, what are your listeners saying? our reporter is getting ready. i may have to cut you off. he has limited time to be live with us. >> don and joe, i'll be very fast. trump was elected on three things. close the border, stop the illegal immigration and the ridiculous trade deals going overseas and get out of these wars. if trump gets involved in any of these wars, his base will unravel and the presidency of donald trump is at major risk. he's got to figure out how to get the hell out of there. >> the thing is you can't run foreign policy on whether your base agrees with you. >> come on, man. >> we have had years and years of these wars, and this president has to figure out how to -- >> the congress has to figure that out. >> john, we ought to be calling congress. >> absolutely. >> we should call them back into session right now. >> yes. >> can we agree on that? >> yes. joe, absolutely. we have no declaration of war. we need to go to congress, you're absolutely correct. if any action happens, donald trump has to go to congress, make his case and get an aumf. he's not done that. joe, you're absolutely correct. >> let me ask you this. we have a little bit of time as will ripley get ready in north korea. president trump has been distancing himself from steve bannon. do you think the president should let him go? first you joe. >> yeah. how quick is that? i had a feeling. >> first of all, he should have never been there. that's my honest opinion. >> john? >> no. steve bannon's departure would be a slap in the face to many people that believe in this administration. >> a bunch of white nationalists. >> she's going to get rid of these leaks, right? but we need steve bannon there and i think his departure would be a real problem going forward. >> even if he's not expanding the base? each if he's possibly shrinking it, you think he should stay? >> here's how you expand the base. you stay out of wars and you get jobs. done. that's what he has to do. i've got to run. gentlemen, thank you very much. i have to get to north korea. i appreciate it. have a great weekend. >> listen, cnn has rare live access inside north korea. possibly the world's most isolated countriment will ripley is live in pyongyang. give us the latest on what's going on and what's happening behind you right now. >> reporter: well, don what's happening behind me right now is you're seeing the north korean military, the band is playing throughout the parade. i don't know it we have the tape or we can cue it back up. north korea put it missile arsenal on display for this military parade. if you look here, there's jets flying over overhead. if we could pan up, the colors of the north korean flag. the missiles that we just saw, don, i'm not a missile expert, but we saw submarine launch ballistic missiles, missiles capable of being launched from a launcher. second before we came on the air, we saw very large, what are believed to be intercontinental ballistic missiles. these are the missiles that north korea is testing and trying to perfect. their ultimate goal is to have an icbm with a nuclear warhead capable of reaching the mainland u.s. most analysts say they're not there yet. you see from this arsenal rolling by, they're getting closer. investing a tremendous amount of their country's very scarce resources in developing these weapons. now what you're going to see happen, you see behind me, there are tens of thousands of people holding up pink and red pom poms. these are the citizens of pyongyang who have been out here for more than five hours. every time this country hold a big celebration, citizens are expected to leave their jobs, they come out to the square, the huge space in the middle of the city and they stand and they perform and they spend sometimes months rehearsing for these types of events. this is what happens. this is what comes with the territory when you're somebody who lives in pyongyang, north korea. you're expected to be out here in all weather conditions to show your revolutionary fervor and send a grand message to not only to the people in our own country and kim jong un. but this is tailor made for the rest of the world to see as well. >> will, there's been escalating war of words between washington and pyongyang, top north korean official said that this is a military parade marking the day of sun where you are. if the u.s. does have any reckless provocation, we will immediately apply a destructive strike with our revolutionary power. we're prepared to respond to an all n out war with an all-out war and we're ready to hit back with nuclear attacks of our own style against any nuclear attacks. how much of this is real? >> reporter: i'll tell you, we know that the north koreans are responding to provocation from the u.s. including tweets from president trump. i was speaking with a government official here in the last hour who told me, don, that the special military operation that north korea released pictures of a couple days ago, commandos jumping out of airplanes, that was in direct response to tweets from president trump. this is the first time that we've heard this from the north korean officials, that they conducted a special operation exercise as a result of president trump's tweets. but the bigger provocative act in the eyes of the north koreans is in the eyes of the peninsulament you have this terrorist strike group with submarines equipped with nuclear missiles, 60 airplanes and 97,000 ton aircraft carrier and analysts know that north korea, they believe could be ready at any time to push the button on its six nuclear tests. the show of force that north korea is showing today shall the citizens, these are now university students. you can tell they're university students by the uniforms they're wearing. look at the giant statues up there of the two late leaders of north korea. on the left -- on the right, kim jong-il. that's the grandfather and the father of kim jong un. you see statues like this all over the city. there are portraits of the late leaders all over the city. this entire society is projecting an image power surrounding the leaders. and now kim jong un. the number one way they like to show power is by pushing the buttons on a nuclear test or launching a missile. kim jong un has promised that a nuclear test will happen. not a matter of if, but when. he's also said that he'll be launching more missiles because he wants a ballistic missile with the nuclear warhead that can hit anywhere in the mainland u.s. these are the citizens i was telling you about. saturday is actually a workday here in north korea. but these are people not at their jobs right now because they're out here. they're waving balloons and their flags. they're screaming long live kim jong un. you'll see tens of thousands of people doing this. later on, they'll do a big mass dance and then later on in the evening, all of the students will come out and do something similar. this is what you're expected to do if you're a citizen in the north korean capital. this comes with the territory. the people who live in this city have a higher living standard than people elsewhere in north korea, don. >> thank you very much, will. if you can, we'll take your camera and play a little bit of this hive. will, thank you so much. look at the live pictures coming from north korea from pyongyang behind our will ripley there. a huge parade right in the center of the square. rare access, cnn, rare access inside one of the most secretive countries on earth. reaction... in ...that's heard throughout the connected business world. at&t network security helps protect business, from the largest financial markets to the smallest transactions, by sensing cyber-attacks in near real time and automatically deploying countermeasures. keeping the world of business connected and protected. that's the power of and. as america's #1 professional lawn care company,ing. trugreen can tailor a plan that turns your ordinary lawn into an extraordinary one. so start your trugreen lawn plan today for only $29.95. say carl, we have a question about your brokerage fees. fees?

[ inaudible ] >> joining me now is daj a fox. thanks so much. you're 16 years old. first of all, thank you for coming on tonight. how did you get the nerve to get up there and say that to a senator? >> well, we have a really strong base of support here, youth and planned parenthood pay sheptien arizona. i had plenty of support from people i care about. more than that, i can't sit idly by while women like me are constantly ignored on capitol hill. >> i want to play the senator's response and then we'll talk. >> what i want is to make sure that everyone can realize the american dream that all of us have been successful at. that's what i'm trying to do. that's why i support the policies that i support. >> birth control -- you need to be successful to reach for higher education and planned parenthood is doing that as well. why would you deny me the american dream? >> thank you. i wouldn't deny anybody the american dream. thank you. >> no, thank you. >> what did you think? do you think he address canned your concerns? >> absolutely not. i think then and there he should have made a commitment to support women like me, to support women from low-income backgrounds and people of color and youth really. i don't think that he made any commitments. i don't think that he answered the question and i think the crowd felt the same way. >> the story here is that senator flake voted for a law that president trump signed yesterday allowing states to deny certain federal funding to planned parenthood. explain to me ho how you first became involved with planned parenthood and how you ended upstanding up at that town hall? >> first and foremost, i'm a planned parenthood patient. i didn't have parents in my life and navigating the health care system was difficult. i came there for my reproductive health care. i had a place to ask questions. that turned into something so much more for me. they they provided me with mentors and a woman who whom i love as a parent. i organized my fellow peers towards sex ed reform from my district. that showed me my story and my voice were so powerful and everyone's is. i took that into town halls like martha mcsally's and jeff flake's to tell them my story. why they're not just issues. they belong to people. these faces that they is see at the town halls are real people. >> we have an issue with the satellite there. hopefully we can correct it. there it is. >> when he was campaigning, candidate trump said that he would be so good for women. how do you feel his politics regarding women's health care so far? >> out of touch with us. he cannot claim -- an old white man that he can relate to me. he's refusing to make a commitment so get to know my story shall the story of women like me. and without understanding our story our struggles, there's no way he can make good choices for us and represent us well. >> if you could speak with the president about your concerns, what would you say to him? >> listen to people's stories. each of us has a voice and a story. and planned parenthood is a part of my story. it's a part of what's making me a leader in my community and what will bring me to capitol hill one day. if i could say anything to him, i'd tell him listen to the people. our stories matter. >> thank you, miss foxx. >> absolutely. thank you. nikki haley talking tough and making her foreign policy stances clear, even when they contradict the president's own views. n. new pantene doesn't just wash your hair, it fuels it. making every strand stronger. so tangles don't stand a chance. because strong is beautiful.

>> we talked about her relationship with donald trump and also secretary of state rex tillerson to see if he minds that she's in the spotlight so much. but you know, she is the rising starve this administration. and no one is more surprised than she is that she's center stage. >> from condemning the chemical attacks in syria -- >> look at those pictures. >> to her aggressive stance on regime change. >> strength ening assad will lead to more murders. >> u.n. ambassador nikki haley has taken center stage as the leading voice of foreign policy in the trump administration. not afraid to speak her mind -- >> for those that don't have our back, we're taking names. >> or contradict her boss. >> russia is trying to show their muscle. i don't think that we can trust them. has he ever said to you, you shouldn't have said something? >> no, he has not. >> are you surprised of that? >> i'm not surprised because he knew that when he hired me that i've made it clear, i didn't want to be a wall flower or talking head. i'm very passionate by nature. he's fine with it. >> how much of it is coordinated with the white house and the state department? >> well, it's always coordinated with the white house. >> you're not going broke? rogue? >> no. i'm not going rogue. it's a sign of how this president works. it's not uncommon for him to pick up the phone and tell me what he feels on an issue. it's not uncommon for him to say, make sure you say this, don't be afraid to say this. he's given me a lot of hleeway o say what i think and interpret what he thinks. i'm a strong voice by nature. sometimes a bull in a china shop. he allows me to do that. >> friends say that same strength and independence served haley well growing up in south carolina. the daughter of sikh immigrants from india, her father was a professor, her mother a lawyer. but the family suffered constant discrimination. >> they had never seen anybody in a turban. never seen anybody in a sahr i. they didn't know who we were or what we were about. growing up was -- you always knew you were different. you felt it. >> one such memorable moment, when she and her sister were disqualified from the little miss bamburg beauty pageant which crowned one white winner and one black winner. the judges said they were neither. >> my mom said, well, nicki has been practicing this song. will you let her do this song. it was this land is your land, this land is my land. >> there's the irony of the story. >> my mom would never let us complain. she would say your job is not to show them how you're different. your job is to show them how you're similar. >> she got a degree at clemson, married her husband, a captain in the national guard and raised two children. her daughter is now a freshman in college and her son who is 15. along the way she credits two women with her interest in politics. >> your role model, you frequently say is margaret thatcher. >> yes. >> do you want something said, is ask a man. if you want something done, ask a woman. >> but the woman who inspired you to go into politics, to run was a democrat named -- >> hillary clinton. >> one day she wept to hear her speak. >> she said for every reason people tell you not to do it, that's every reason you should p that was it. i was done. i didn't know you weren't supposed to run against a 30-year incumbent in a primary. ignorance is bliss. >> she won that race, served in the statehouse. then went on to break two barriers. becoming the first indian american and first woman governor of south carolina. >> so help me god. >> overnight, she was a rising star in the republican party. thrust on the national stage after the horrific mass shooting at charleston's mother emanuel ame church. >> everyone wanted to hug her. there was an image of nikki crying. >> then she won praise for her successful campaign to remove the confederate flag from the statehouse. >> nicki nikki haley did something impossible. female running for governor and beat the boys. >> her star power and clout were never more apparent than during the presidential campaign when she endorsed florida senator marco rubio yoe. and many thought this could be the gop ticket. >> donald trump did not take it well and he went on twitter. the people of south carolina are embarrassed by nikki haley, exclamation point and not 20 minutes later, you responded, "at real donald trump, bless your heart." what does that mean when you're from south carolina? >> it's a southern polite way of saying read between the lines. >> trump didn't hold it against her, naming haley his u.n. ambassador and it appears he's pleased with her high public profile. >> is there any tension with secretary of state tillerson. he's been so quiet and kept a low profile. you've been out there. any awkwardness. >> i think it's just the personalities. he's very much an executive. he's thoughtful in his approach and how he moves forward. i'm one that's not afraid to say anything. i'm not easily intimidated. so i can go out and say things. i think we complement each other very well. >> it has, however, led to speculation that someday haley might like his job or higher office. >> everybody i talk to says, does she want to be secretary of state? >> no. >> do you want to be senator? >> no. >> are you going to run for the white house? >> no. >> you're not going to run for the white house? everyone thinks you are. >> you know what's amazing. this has happened my entire work career. everyone thinks that i'm ambitious and that i'm trying to run for something and everybody thinks i want more. the truth of it is, i'm just passionate. >> but you wouldn't rule out that someday you might run for the white house? >> i can't imagine running for the white house. >> you really can't? >> i really can't. >> not going to run, really? >> she may say that, but nobody else in politics, republican, democrat thinks that someday she's not going to run. >> why does he give her so much leeway? because she opposed him. others he's not brought into the fold. >> clearly, you heard her say in the piece she's not going rogue. when we interviewed her, she had already spoke ep to him three times that week. she says he trusts her instincts. there's been so much chaos elsewhere in the administration, clearly she's been out there. but what she says he likes. one day at the u.n. and the next day they said it at the white house. one thing she has to be careful of. i'm not sure donald trump loves it when people out-shine him. so, so far so good. let's see how it goes down the road. >> that's very smart insight that you have. thank you, jamie. i appreciate that. i want you to stick around. when we come back, the president changing a mind on a lot of key political promises of the we'll get you up to speed on his latest views, next. yet some cards limit where you earn bonus cash back to a few places. and then, change those places every few months. enough with that!

>> no. i think in some reasons the big surprise. which is the businessman's ceo was going to run things better than all the politicians is discovering that government is actually very complicated. and that there is no real parallel. i mean, i've often argued that the ceos have no idea how complex government is. a ceo has complete control of his or her organization. they have an incredible incentive structure where you can pay people bonuses, cut their pay and fire them. you have total control and you get people to do what you want. washington couldn't be more different. nobody is in charge. you think your secretary of defense and you're running the defense department. welcome to the generals who think they're running it. welcome to the house appropriations committee, the armed services committee, giving you the money. welcome to the 25-year-old kid in the white house who thinks he's going to tell you what the president's policy is. you have to navigate all of that. what trump is realizing is this is very hard and it's very hard to get all your ducks it a row and align them and conceive of a policy that will move through congress, get executed. what you've seen even in a good week like this, where trump moved to a sensible policy on many things, you still have the cacophony of three different people saying three different things. you can imagine the world wondering, what do we rely on sf. >> when you said we have to think about it, i would say mixed week. because we have palace intrigue. when you say the 24-year-old in the white house, we have a 30-something in the white house, i'm talking about jared kushner now. steve bannon has gone from chief strategist on the outs now, kushner is getting a lot of play. this is within the first 100 days. are we seeing a shift in who is going to be around the president in his inner circle? >> i think there's no question we're seeing a shift. the other thing is, the 100-day mark is very important to donald trump because what does he like to do? he wants to win. he wants to have success. >> like his ratings period, sweeps. >> we have not heard about polls. remember how in the campaign he would talk about his ratings. >> he was bringing the polls to interviews. >> we have not heard anything about poll numbers. then he had health care. i don't think it's much of a surprise that we are seeing a shift in the people around him because it's not working. he's going to find things that work. if that means that steve bannon goes, look, we've all discussed there's a danger. is it more dangerous having him outside the white house than inside the white house. what about his base? bottom line, i think donald trump cares about racking up those wins. if he thinks he's better off without steve bannon, then we may see a slow exit. >> maybe the evidence of that is that, can we call this a week of you turns where he said one thing and did another. flipflops, i think you can call them that. he now sports the export/import bank. he says china is not a currency manipulator. might keep janet yellen and nato isn't obsolete. on top of that, he dropped two bombs this week. how would you describe the trump doctrine. >> his foreign policy doctrine seems to be nonintervention unless when i'm watching cnn i get moved. in which case, i will change my mind. but i think that really, in all those cases, that's what i meant by trump's good week. he has moved to a more sensible policy. there were a lot of crazy things he said during the campaign. many of us watched with horror thinking he might implement them. in almost everything you read, i think basically he's moved to the right place. the problem is, i think allies particularly and frankly people in america also are looking to the president of the united states for a certain degree of clarity and consistency. now, trump embraces the fact that he's constantly changing his mind. he says, look, i'm a very flexible guy. i'm proud of my flexibility. how to to make sense of a flexibility that i said nato is obsolete, now it's not. he embraces the new position with a kind of bizarre enthusiasm as if he had never taken the oath. >> he says he believes the world has changed. the world hasn't changed. >> but he's -- >> how the world -- that's why i think sean spicer gets into trouble. there is one consistent thing. david fromm makes this point on my sunday show. he is still very much a unilateralist. whatever he does, he does without alliances. he does without consulting people. if you think about the strikes, you know, frankly syria had violated a u.n. agreement. he could have taken it to the security council. the russians might have vetoed in all these places you want to be, particularly north korea, you want to be with the south koreans. you don't want to be out ahead of the country that will face the brunt of any response. that part trump remains very much a kind of america loner. >> every president has a learning curve. >> his is steeper because he's not steeped in world affairs. >> he's never had the experience of government service. and let's face it, he is -- to say he's not steeped in foreign affairs is kind. he really doesn't know some of the basic facts of what's been going on. but at least his flexibility or his flip-flop or his u-turn means that he appears, at least for this week, to be learning, trying, adjusting. >> but one would hope that this will help him and the american people understand that this kind of bravado of saying, i'm from the outside, i'm a businessman, all these problems are easy. if you just put me in, i alone can fix them. it's all nonsense. these problems are very hard. if there was a simple fix, somebody would have done it. donald trump is now going through the most expensive education in american history. >> you have been saying that and many people have been saying it. oh, you're a trump hater, when you've just been telling the truth. here it is, now he's learning on the judge. reality is right in his face. thank you. i appreciate it. make sure -- i'm looking forward to fareed zakaria sunday 10:00 p.m. eastern. we'll be right back. share the joy of real cream... ...with reddi-wip. incr...think it wouldotection in a pwork, but it does.dn't... it's called always discreet for bladder leaks, the super... ...absorbent core turns liquid to gel. i know i'm wearing it but no one else will. always discreet for bladder leaks. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis, isn't it time to let the real you shine through?
