i think what we will see reflected on the trip is a turn away from what was seen in the trump administration as a go it alone, an american first strategy that you had an impulsive president saying i m going to protect america and not pay so much attention to the concerns of allies. joe biden has worked foin forei policy for years. i think he will under core that and that is relevant to signer, to the economy, for standing up for the interest of liberal democracies, people that are concerned about human rights and democracy against china and russia and countries that want to challenge what they want to do and i think both in the meetings with nato nanny his sit
we are now standing alone in many ways from the rest e rest of the world. so the american first strategy can be very detrimental. and it assumes america first doesn t include the interests in curbing climate change. right. it s a very chemical understanding of what that means a very particular understanding of what that means. from the op-ed in the new york times to an important press conference, two and two, two questions from the american media, two from the french. certainly one has to be about don jr. the meeting he took with the russian lawyer. we got a hint of how the president might play this in an interview with reuters when the president said, i think many people would have held that meeting. and you have to understand when that took place, this was before russia fever. there was no russia fever back then. that was at the beginning of the campaign more or less. there was no russia fever. it is now. even then, that was an american adversary, arguably our greatest on
you have rebels who are holding out with their lives at stake who need to know that help is on the way. you need to signal to them what you are going to do and when you re going to do it and there is an immense amount of power that comes from being able to do that. donald trump has rejected that kind of logic. julian, i went back and read the president s inaugural address and probably 40 words about the rest of the world. an american-first strategy. how do his supporters likely view what is happening the last week when we focused on other parts of the world and not so much on the u.s.? well, his supporters are upset. america first was a key theme, even though he didn t talk about foreign policy. the notion that the united states would remain aloof and distance from some of these kind of conflicts was a core theme. both for a lot of his supporters and, frankly, for a lot of the country who is still war weary after iraq. so i think this definitely doesn t sit well with many of his su
defense we need a plan to hold assad accountable. i see no justification for trump s missile strike. if @ real donald trump need needs we do need to make sure that we recognize that the common enemy, the one we have to go after ultimately is isis. because of the slaughter that they are going to commit against christians and jews and even against other muslims is so absolutely unmerciful. look, let s not kid ourselves, assad is a butcher. but we have to be very certain that when if we get rid of him and i know that s the strategy, that we get someone in his place that s better. and i m not sure who that is. we saw what happened in egypt when they you know, secretary of defense we have got to get rid of the president. okay, fine. what happened in the muslim brotherhood for heaven s sake was worse. clayton: look at the mess in iraq that country held together by duct tape probably
see the screen rachel maddow s face is like what is this guy talking about? i think that larry was off his meds et other night. i honestly expected that the old character of rod serlg, a lot of people are too young to remember this would step into the picture and say you have just entered the twilight zone because truly we did. let me tell you when was talking about the 50% chance. whatever the percentage, 100 percent chance on that segment lawrence o donnell had completely lost it in really even bringing up the notion that donald trump and the russians colluded to go in to this whole thing just to distract like some wag the dog strategy. it was utterly crazy. pete: governor, one day donald trump, president trump is totally incompetent. next day he is a mastermind of international collusion. abby: governor, great to have you here this morning. thank you. abby: have a great sunday. thank you. abby: manhunt intensifying for a man who police say robbed a gun store and mailed preside
