what is your prediction for who wins? 2016 told me ton make predictions. taught all of us that. maybe lamb by a whisker but we will all be up late tuesday night, i think. yeah. sherry, you want to go out an limb here? no, i won t go out on that limb at all. but i think this is the last time that special elections are are easier to nationalize. i think in mid terms, it ll be every man and woman for themselves. why make it hard prediction? you obviously haven t learned since 2016. i m doing my ncaa brackets with the same conviction. that may be a safer bet. thank you all very much for joining us this afternoon. will president trump actually sit down with special council robert muler? a new clue from the white house. and effort to keep stormy daniels silent. the porn star ready to tell her story to the world, including
day when he hit his allies with new tariffs and agrees to treat a global pariah he once threatened with war as equal at negotiating table. if donald trump knows what he is doing, what is he doing? difficult question, chris. this is a president who prides himself on acting intuitively. he believes himself master deal maker who is unorthodox and who builds his power with these kind of memorable theatrical moments. like the one he staged last night with proclamations that don t necessarily move much in substance but that builds his presidential brand. so the impromptu decision catching even white house staffers off guard now scrambling to put together a high stakes meeting with a country they don t have relations with let alone time for preparation. is the u.s. on the right path or collision course with highly volatile and ub predict al regime. that depend on who you ask.

warren doesn t agree with that assessment. take a listen. i m very concerned that president maybe taken advantage of here. i want to see the president succeed. it is important for the defense of the united states. it is important for the security of the entire world. but i m worried about going into the negotiations without a full strong backup. we don t even have an ambassador to south korea. a lot of the high ranking diplomats, nikki haley, rex tillerson, hr mcmaster didn t have a lot of experience on the job so to speak before they took these positions. what are your thoughts about that? well, one thing that the white house will say to you when you raise the issue of north korea in this upcoming meeting is that the president is a good negotiator. they talk about his negotiating
