surprised one more time this november. when you tally up their representation in congress and governor ships the democrats almost have their lowest representation in about 100 years according to political scientists. they are not alone. britain's observed that the year before the labor party received its second worst elector ralg result in a century. in germany the once dominant social democrats had the worst showing since it was created in 1949. things have changed a bit though mostly for the worst. in france resent ruls have been worse than at any time since 1969. the situation is more puzzling when you consider the backdrop. a global financial crisis caused
10:03 am
by the recklessness of the private sector. the parties are largely on the left and those rewarded are largely on the right. why? to answer this question a group of scholars published an excellent book titled why the left looses. points to some answers. one factor is the nature of economic systems in the post world war 2 era. they found itself of cracked by the financial crisis. they found itself as to how to respond politically. it was by immediately turning on themselves with many claiming
10:04 am
they never should have embraced markets in the first place. it is worth noting free traders actually won the election after election after election. it is their left wing successors that keep losing. another is more perhaps it is because of the rise of mass middle class. it cannot celebrate identity and diversity without triggering a
10:05 am
backlash among the older population. the left has always been about a hopeful of the future, one in which everyone prospers. when a large part of the public is fearful and pessimistic for a world gone by offering hope becomes a hard sell. for more go to cnn.com and read my washington post column and let's get started. >> the meeting hasn predictable. well, all that has gone out the
10:06 am
window. >> trump tweeted he would not because of false statements. he was reporting prime minister who we went onto call dishonest and weak. who is going on? joining me is former deputy secretary of state and deputy national securit adviser in the obama administration. i think we can both agree we have never seen anything like this. refusing to sign a joint insulting the canadian prime minister. does trump have a point that there is a systematic predatory practices that europeans have enacted? >> he has a point on specific products and industries. he has started a race to the
10:07 am
bottom. far from retreating if you're maki making harley-davidsons you'll have a tariff slapped on yours. they are said it is a profound mistake that in terms of prices for consumers here in the u.s. our ability to export an economic growth endangered. here is the irony. in terms of tariffs the united states and canada, we are very low. average is under 2%. the president is right and milk products being sold. canadians are upset we slap about a 300% coming into the united states.
10:08 am
for example the united states sells its services and other countries reisn countries resent the facts. >> yeah. that's exactly right. that's the tragedy of having thrown out the transpacific partnership. there is an opportunity to for everyone to succeed. we are heading back and with our closest partners. >> it struck me as an odd one. he said if he had been president he did you want think russia would have gotten away with invading ukraine.
10:09 am
working on security to take away that weapon. when he talks about letting it back in because they have doubled down on this behavior. meddling in our own elections, exporting corruption. it has only gotten worse. they are not a responsible actor. they were originally braulgt in to make it a g8. they were kicked out when they didn't become one. now it has only gotten worse. the president basically is doing
10:10 am

10:13 am
dark magic told in the time it takes to brew your cup. first, we head to vermont. and go to our coffee shop. and meet dave. hey. why is dark magic so spell-bindingly good, he asks? let me show you. let's go. so we climb. hike. see a bear. woah. reach the top. dave says dark magic is a bold blend of coffee with rich flavors of uganda, sumatra, colombia and other parts of south america. like these mountains, each amazing on their own. but together? magical. all, for a smoother tasting cup of coffee. green mountain coffee roasters packed with goodness. moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis was intense. my mom's pain from i wondered if she could do the stuff she does for us which is kinda, a lot. and if that pain could mean something worse. joint pain could mean joint damage. enbrel helps relieve joint pain, and helps stop further damage enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders and allergic reactions have occurred. tell your doctor if you've been someplace

10:15 am
summit will be a success. when will we know? here in new york she is a former senior korea analyst. in singapore usually they are carefully choreographed. go they said they have somewhere between a tuzen to 15 different contingency plans. you know, working level summits are a lot more core owe graphed. in this case there are so many different possible ways it could
10:16 am
go. not only was it on and off but you have the president saying he could be walking out of it if he doesn't get a good deal. it is definitely unprecedented already. it is unprecedent until how impro vised it is going to be. of. >> when you look at this we talked a lot about what trump wans. what do you think that north koreans, what have they gotten already? >> what they want is international accept stance as a nuclear weapons state.
10:17 am
you said you don't think but they must have thought this through. they have been strategic so far. >> i think there will be some sort of agreement. they said sure for perhaps a peace treaty. they might give something up front like that's going to look like north korea is turning a new leaf. we didn't know when we found out north korea. we have to remember north korea agrees the hard part is implementation.
10:18 am
>> that seems to be a very important point that he is reminding himself. they signed a deal with the clinton administration. they agreed to denuclearize. we found out they were cheating. it feels to me that's a real danger. when you were helping negotiate isn't that the kind of inspections, that's the heart of the process. >> the president to some extent has hoisted on his own. he said it was the worst deal ever negotiated. now though can he actually meet the same with north korea? can he dismantle the entirety? can he get the most intru monitoring system in the history of arms control. we should all want the president to succeed. he should be applauded for that.
10:19 am
he has such a strong temptation to declare success. he built up his ability but if he doesn't do it on the substance and on the merits we will be back where we have been. the president needs to be on guard. we won't know if it succeeds for many many years. >> and you have seen presidents operate up close. you're in the children on administration as well. there must be to have the summit succeed because he has just come out of one which sort of failed.
10:20 am
he can't have a second summit fail. it is going to further temp him no mattert happens. it is dangerous in so many ways. the more it says to china with go ahead and lift economic pressure. it reduces our leverage to keep them at the table and keep them focused on doing something concrete. the real problem is we have demonstrated at t g7 that america first is america alone. it means it is harder to put pressure and to confront common challenges together. confidence has gone down. it is down about 20 points since obama. hopefully the president can make a turn here. it is an important moment. if he can make something of it, keep the focus on, do the work that's necessary it would be a good thing. >> when you look at the north
10:21 am
10:22 am
this tiny city and stale is possibly the best run country in the world is, you know, hosting this extraordinary summit. are people there intrigued, excited? what is the mood? >> there certain sli a lly a lo excitement. folks are really viewing this with a mix of curiosity and fascination. a lot of restaurants and bars are creating a lot of trump/kim specials. there's a bromance burgers. there is end is beef.
10:23 am
also when he was rooifing and his motorcade was snaking through today a lot of onlookers stopped and pulled out their iphones in order to get images of that motorcade. security the already quite strok. they were spending millions to make sure this is pulled off without a hitch. >> the one country we haven't sort of spent a lot of time on.
10:24 am
90% comes from china. they have never really wanted to put it as much as the rest of the world has. they say we can have better relations again. >> we have already seen report that is sanctions are not being implemented. we know it is showing up and so on. so i'm afraid political will has already weakened. >> it is after all of this diplomacy. >> and of course with all of
10:25 am
this squabbling it would become harder to reenforce sanctions. let's put it this way. he is not going to look kindly on this one. he just said he stabbed the president in the back. imagery i have never heard coming out about our closest european allies. we'll be back with a preview of my brand new documentary, the faces of kim jong un, we'll give you an exclusive sneak peek when we come back.

10:30 am
kim jong un. his grandfather became the first premier of the newly formed north korea in 1948. with soviet help he built up his army army and invaded the south. for more than 45 years he ruled north korea. he obtained a god-like status. we puck up the story when he dies and his son takes over. >> there were doubts about hiss success but they gradually faded because he had one talent. she was a master propaganda. >> they started his son into the god figure. >> the great midst of the kim
10:31 am
dynasty. similar jong unlargely created them. >> he was very influence bid christianity. when you look at it it is kind of like a cult system. they have what seems like a bible. they have bible study groups. >> the resemblance is no accident. many are rooted in the religion paragraphs because he was raised presbyterian. >> sit a cult. these are the leaders that need to be worshipped. >> they created a religion around themselves. it became a key driver of the regime survival. he created much of it.
10:32 am
it turn out he had another ambition. what he really wanted to do was direct. >> he really wants to make movies. >> loved american cinema and was a huge movie buff. he loved titanic. he made his own version of titanic. understanding the kim family and kim jong un is crucial going into tuesday's summit. we hope the president will watch my show tonight to get deep inside the nuclear capacity and what kim jong un really wants. that's tonight at 8:00 p.m.

♪ most people come to la with big dreams. ♪ we came with big appetites. with expedia, you could book a flight, hotel, car, and activity all in one place. ♪ many believed the foreign adviser was benjamin rods. he was the ark tech of opening to cuba. president trump rolled that back. president trump has with drawn
10:38 am
from that. he was by his side to back the paris climate agreement making history. president trump has with drawn from that. what does it look like to have your president systematically -- benjamin rhodes joins me. >> so it must have been hard to be writing this memoir of all of these accomplishments. >> that's exactly right. i was reliving what should have been kind of high moments, you know, going into the vatican to tell them we will establish relations. >> i was reliving the highs at
10:39 am
the same time it was essentially doing everything it could to take an ax to some of the agreements. go do you think for him to do it would have been unthinkable? >> it was funny reliving this experience. the week i went to work he was in a democratic debate. he said yes, i would. it caused a fire storm. all of the republicans were awarding nobel peace prizes called him irresponsible. he says i'm right about this.
10:40 am
he was very open to that. he had two signature accomplishments. what was different for us is two things. we had a right wing government the whole time we were in office. he really wants to make this happen. the second thing is that kim jong un took power while we were in the second term. we had to take the measure of him. what we saw him do, by the way, is purge any opponents including the people closest t china. so i think he is coming in from position of strength. u.s. president is not prepared.
10:41 am
people said personal diplomacy is at the heart of the diplomacy. >> i described a scene where he called me up to the oval office and he said why do people keep saying i'm aloof? tell them to call. i love merkle. he never believed the krcritici. i describe at the end of the book when he said good-bye to her she had kind of a tear in her eye. >> and he walks away saying she is trying to uphold this without a u.s. president who will support her.
10:42 am
obama kind of leans over and says you'll have to speak up. i saw him kind of pass a torch. actually when we were talking after that episode he was saying look, for confidence in several other leaders but to do that without a u.s. president is a very difficult thing. we saw them in november of 2016. he looked pretty relaxed. obama was warning him, you know, trump is really going to -- it means on trade. i'll never forget he kind of folded his hands. the world will know who the blame. what i heard him saying is i am now going to be able to claim the high ground in a way china has been able to.
10:43 am
it hasn't surprised me. you know how it is the spokesperson for trade and globalization around the world. >> people point out that presidents always go gray in the white house. i will show you two photographs from your book. >> yes. >> this is when you started and now. so essentially bald. did you lose all of your hair because of working in the white house? >> i think if do you reyou read you'll understand why. it may have been genetics but it was certainly accelerated. i was 29 when i went to work for
10:44 am
obama. i came into this without that kind of experience and then to go on this journey and to wrestle with that myself, to become in many ways kind of a punching bag i described in the book becoming a right wing. i didn't set out to do. i don't advise anyone do it. and rough and tumble politics. i feel like i came out on the other end but still maintaining the basic reason and it leads me to believe 10 to 20 years from now the world will look more like barack obama. >> the book is written with a novelist's pen. next on the show, they say time flies when you're having fun. it seems like it's been a flash. the global public square has

what we lack in america today is courage. one day we will look back and wonder how people could have been so willing to deny equal treatment under the law to a small minority. it's been an extraordinary six days since two bombs exploded near the finish line of the boston marathon. there will be no destruction of centrifuges. >> no! >> russia has now made its move. it has essentially detached crimea from the ukranian government's control. >> if you haven't tried, you haven't tried hard enough. >> donald j. trump is calling for -- >> i am appalled by donald trump's demagoguery, not because i'm a muslim, but because i'm an american. >> to label islam under the term

but it's brown and poor which seem to be the two main criteria. >> ever since donald trump was elected president, i said he's done something right. what did we learn about kim jong-un and what should donald trump know about the man he might sit across the table from? >> these are huge things that are impacting the world. >> now for our "what in the world" segment. now for our "last note." here's our take. throughout it all, our goal has been to help you make sense of your world. i hope that's what we continue to do every sunday. thanks to all of you for being part of my program this week and for the last ten years. i will see you next week. be sure to watch my latest special, "the two faces of kim jong-un" which premieres tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern and pacific on cnn.
