Director of the National Security institute, george mason , Ford O Connell the civic chairman and political analyst and Washington Examiner contributor and rnc spokeswoman caylee you didnt have enough titles there but youre still young. Im sorry. Charles im going to you first because this is so intriguing to have a high profile very powerful senator taking on the president of the United States and his own party in such a public way. Right well the president is doing his job and we encourage senators to do theres an that means standing behind the president s agenda. President trump won senator cork ers state by 26 Percentage Points i believe thats an overwhelming message from the people saying stand behind President Trump, dont engage in these petty fights senator cork er because its not helpful to the gop moving forward. Charles why exactly should corker be so vocal bob corker made some folks disparaging comments about the Trump Administration holding this thing together suggesting tha
Washington post . I dont know the answer to that. Nor do i know the answer to that. As far as you know, has any classified information relating to mr. Trump or his associates been declassified and shared with the media . Not to my knowledge. Ms. Yates. Not to my knowledge either. Have you ever given information to a reporter that you didnt want to have your name connected with but wanted to see it in the paper . I have not. Charles here to discuss, nan hayward, carl higbie and michael maltby. You have been the hearing, obviously they pressed hard, we know there were leaks and still this is an area we cant get resolved. Well, yes, but clapper and yates made quite clear, it wasnt them, we dont know, we will probably never find out. Leak investigations rarely come to fruition. Its worth looking at but a bit beside the point what i thought was the heart of their testimony which was the warning to the white house. Charles the warning about Michael Flynn . Yes, sir. Charles okay, nan, what a
Being planned for christmas. Donald trump is promising the to change the way the western democracies think about this, and we need to rethink how we are handling this, particularly the European Countries who aloud so many refugees to come in who were up vetted. Charles yesterday in mara lag oh they tossed out the muslim ban and registry. And donald trump said egg i told you is coming to fruition. Do we need to go that far and revisit th visas. I would focus on countries that represent a danger. If people are coming in unvetted, that does present a threat to the American People and its not worth taking the risk. Do it by country rather than by religion. Charles one of the things we are learning about donald trump is the tweets arent island. Lockheed martin, boeing, carrier, maybe china is learning this as well. Perhaps a trade war being kicked off right out of the gate. The se china, and what chinas militarism means to the world. The president elect is taking a tough stand on china. Hes
This is fake news put out by the meade why. The news is fake because so much of the news is fake. Im not okay when its fake. Im changing it from fake news to very fake news. Charles joining me, betsy woodruff. The aftermath, the media must be feeling the bruises today. He didnt just say the media was fake news. He tweeted the reporters and the media at large were the enemy of the people. This goes beyond needling cnn. Hes suggesting the media is against the American People. Thats governor crane outlandish. There is a point where you throw our hand up and say maybe this guy has something he needs to get out of his system. Charles hyperbolic, a place where no president has ever gone before. Every president has an acrimonious relationship with the media. But does yesterdays press conference reflect more of what the American People feel than the media wants to admit. We are look at the medias Approval Ratings far lower than the esident approval tings. The American People are not buying it.
Access pipeline. [applause] anywhere from 30 to 40,000 jobs and very importantly as i was about to sign it, i said makes the pipe . Who makes the pipe . Something this audience understands very well, right . A simple question to the lawyers put this very complex document in front of me and i said who makes the pipe . They said sarah can be made anywhere. I said not anymore so i put a little clause in the bottom, the pipe is to be made in the United States of america if we are going to have a pipeline. [alae] we believe in two simple rules i can tell you everybody in this massive this is a massive hangar. This is for the big planes and by the way do you think that one media group back there, that one network will show this crowd . Not one. Not one. They wont show the crowd. You know, coming in on the plane and that plane represents so much and just so you know, they were close to signing a 4. 2 billion deal for air force one. Can you believe this . I said no way. I said i refuse to fly
