hello, everybody. i'm john king in washington. thanks so much for sharing your day with us. the president spending his morning lying on twitter is a the country he leads approaches a shock coronavirus milestone. you can see the numbers on your screen, 120,000 americans dead. globally the virus is spreading faster than ever. is 33,000 cases reported by the world health organization on sunday. daily infections finished north of 30,000 on sunday, the highest single day case count in seven weeks. the white house today insisting the president was not serious when he told rally--goers he instructed aides to slow down testing to make the numbers look better than they actually are. the 2020 election 19 weeks from tomorrow, so the timing of this new case surge not good for the president. it's also a bad time for doubts about your campaign, your campaign team or campaign plan

but empty seats in tulsa this weekend infuriated the president, and there's a lot of debate about the rally plan going forward. we know the president likes to change the subject when he doesn't like the headlines. today's effort simply a lie. quote, millions of mail-in ballots will be printed by foreign countries, the president tweets. there is no evidence to support that claim, none, and no evidence to support the president's claim that mail-in voting means massive fraud. again, none. when we count the votes in november john bolton says his will be a write-in for a republican not named trump. the one-time white house insider savages the president in a new book and hopes the voters decide four years is more than enough. >> i hope it will remember him as a one-term president who didn't plunge the country irretrievably into a downward spiral we can't recover from. we can get over one term. >> a big coronavirus milestone in florida today. remember that state opened early

and now has a rising are case count, and it just crossed 100,000 total cases. let's get straight to cnn's rosa flores in miami for me. rosa? >> hey, john, and here in the state of florida, like you mentioned, crossing 100,000 cases. we were expecting that because of the recent increase, and governor ron desantis finally acknowledging that the increase in cases here in the state is not just due to the increase in testing but also to an increase in community spread. according to the governor it's young people who are not social distancing and who are not wearing masks. here in miami-dade where i am, three businesses were shut down over the weekend for violations of covid-19 regulations. not one of those rules is, of course, no -- one of the rules is no large gatherings and apparently that rule applies even to the president of the united states. our very own poppy harlow asked the city of miami mayor francis suarez if he would support a maga rally here in mime, and

here's what he said. >> we're not opening large venues where you can have any sort of large congregation of people whether it's a sporting event, whether it's a real, so none of those kinds of things are open in the city and won't be open after today's data which is worse than last monday's was. >> reporter: now, john, i would love to ask that question to governor ran desantis to see what he thinks about hosting a maga rally here in mime he. what we do know from the governor he's upping enforcements and sending inspectors out to businesses like in miami-dade. doing it at the county level and at the state level he'll be sending out inspectors to make sure that the rules are being followed. john. >> day after day and day in recent days, rosa, those tough numbers out of florida. we'll stay on top of it. the coronavirus reality here in the united states, the nation has the most cases globally and the number of new infections is, again, climbing. those are two facts the president simply does not like which explains why he's

repeatedly trying to tell you the numbers look worse than they actually rcmp the president insisting on twitter last night our coronavirus testing is so much greater, 25 million tests, he says, and so much more advanced that it makes us look like we have more cases, especially proportionally than other countries. let's go to the white house and cnn's john harwood. it looks like we have more cases here in the united states because we have more cases here in the united states. >> reporter: exactly right. you used the right word at the beginning of that setup. the coronavirus reality. the coronavirus reality is that the united states has 4% of the world's population and 25% of the world's cases and more significantly 25% of the world eats deaths. that's a number you can't spin and say, well, it's asymptomatic and mild cases. up-fourth of the world's deaths. now because the president of the united states doesn't want to acknowledge that reality it puts his aides in a very difficult position to try to talk about

what everyone can plainly see is happening which leads to the mixed messages that we've got to two administration economic advisers. larry kudlow and peter navarro. take a listen. >> are you preparing for a second wave in the fall? >> you prepare for what can possibly happen. i'm not saying it's going to happen, but about, of course, you prepare. >> we know how to deal with this stuff now. it's come a long way since last winter, and there is no second wave coming. >> reporter: larry kudlow had a point saying we know how to deal with that better. our death rate is coming down even though 120,000 people have died. the rate of death is going down. however, when you've got rising case counts, you now have half the states with a virus reproduction or innext rate exceeding one meaning the epidemic is expanding, and you have highly variable results by individual. nobody knows how bad it's going

to be for any particular case. that's a frightening reality for americans and president trump simply does not want to accept it, but you can see from that one-third filled arena in tulsa over the weekend, that there are a lot more people now being skeptical of the administration's claims than they were before this epidemic hit. >> there's a lot of room to debate in the middle, but the simple numbers just don't lie. the numbers don't lie. john harwood from the white house. with us to discuss is our panel. vivian, i want to start with you because when we saw the president's coronavirus numbers tank it's because americans had the impression he was not on top of it. said it wasn't going to be a pandemic and it was and everybody could get a test when nobody could get a test. seemed out of touch from the beginning. if he seems out of touch now, it's fading and dying. look at florida, maybe the case

count is going up and the danger is real and present. why does the white house keep saying it's good? >> reporter: it's an election year and one of the things been weighing very heavily on the mind of president trump and his advisers is the fact that the economy has been tanking through this whole entire process, and so in their minds and especially some of his economic advisers who are around him, the best way to tackle that was a quick reopening regardless of the risks, and a lot of the advisers that i've spoken with tell the president, you know, we took a quick hit but let's move on with it, and even if we have to continue to battle with rising cases or just the continuation, the drag out of this virus, at least we're better equipped right now. they say that testing has improved and hospitals are better equipped, the ventilators are in player, but, of course, we still see the numbers going up, and obviously when you have rising death tolls and rising rates of infection that also is a huge problem, and it's something that the president has

opted probably for political reasons to completely shelve so he can focus on the re-election and economy and getting people back to their jobs and kind of get the country in motion again, and it's come at a great cost. >> it has come at a great cost. well put. it's trademark for the president. he doesn't like the headlines or what's being talked about on cable television so he tweets something outrageous. he's simply lying when he says mail-in voting is subject to giant fraud. if we have more mail-in voting more foreign countries will be printing the ballots. he's doing it because he's upset. the press secretary said the president is not at all angry and you can translate that the president is indeed. the president was quite angry over the weekend. so many empty seats in that arena in tulsa. thereto was no overflow crowd even though they planned a big outdoor event for him to speak to. they had to cancel it and break down the security measures there. it has to rattle the president a little bit at least that 19 weeks from the election in addition to all these other challenges, now he has some

questions about his campaign team. >> well, and let's not forgot. the coronavirus is not something that's self-inflicted, a crisis that the president has not been able to control. the rally and the optics of that real which the president cares about very much. we know how much he watches tv were atrocious and totally self-inflicted, and -- and they have tried to -- we've seen the blame from his campaign manager brad parscale, try to blame the media and protesters who reporters on the ground they weren't a problem with attendees getting in. he blamed any number of things. at the end of the day they didn't have to have this rally. they wanted it to be a show of force, that they were moving past the coronavirus. you've seen mike pence trying to say that as well in his op-ed in "the wall street journal," that there wasn't going to be a second wave. they can spin all they want. the virus doesn't care. >> yeah, go ahead.

>> i was just going to say that in the middle of all of this the president doesn't think two crises is enough. we're in the middle of a pandemic and a racial reckoning going on since the death of george floyd and the president decide, 19 weeks before the election with the help of his attorney general which is remarkable to fire the man who leads the office you once worked income the southern district new york president jeff berman. that office we know is involved in a number of investigations. number one, it's the office that put michael cohen behind bars, congressman chris clinds and giuliani associates charged by jeffrey berman, a turkish bank close to the president's friend, the president of turkey charged. jeffrey epstein, michael avenatti and looking at the inaugural committee and looking at possible miss conduct by rudy giuliani and pretty brazen to not only touch and grab with two hands this third rail. why? >> john, to me this is a flagrant attempt to inject politics into prosecution. you said it well.

third rail. the justice department is supposed to be the most independent of all the departments in the federal government, and within that had the southern district is famously independent. look, you just gave a great list of all the high-profile investigations of people close to donald trump that the sdny managed to get under way even in this highly politicized era, and if you look at the way donald trump and william barr did this announcing it on a friday night misleading the public saying jeffrey berman would step down trying to appoint jay clayton with zero prosecute yorl experience, putting someone never spending a day as a prosecutor in charge of the southern district, it's a joke. it would be like trying to appoint me surgeon general. i don't think there's any reason for it other than they are trying to politicize the southern district of new york. >> this president is disruptive from day one, but idea that he would do this is a little bit of

pushback from republicans on capitol hill, but it was a very little. >> well, i mean, we're -- i think that goes back to being in an election year. they don't want to cross -- especially you have some republicans facing tough races in november. they don't want to cross him in the middle of an election year and being the sort of hate tweets. there's talk in the judiciary committee about the politicization of the justice department, so we'll see if they are able, this obviously will come up and we'll see who they can get in there to talk about it >> eli, on that point. jeff berman agreed to step down on saturday after he essentially because of his stubbornness, his deputy will run the office. the administration wanted to bring in an ally from new jersey. how much of a difference does that make and one would assume if the prosecutors are loyal to

their former boss to mr. berman will double dot their is and cross their ts given the microscope they are under. >> i served in the sdny, almost four years under bush, four years under obama. we went through four u.s. attorney changes. they were all smooth, even when we went from one party to another. did not interrupt the work that the office did day by day. now under the trump administrations we've seen not one but two by including our colleague preet bharara that were sudden and unexpected that affects the morale. the southern district will survive this and will outlive the trump administration and many beyond it. i do have faith that the men and women who work there every day will continue to do their job. that's certainly the way i was trained there, john. >> vivian, another thing we know under the president's skin is that his former national security adviser, former insider in the west wing john bolton, not only does he have a book out that savages the president, questioning his intellect and questioning whether he has any

principle, questioning whether he shares american value is now giving a bunch of interviews and democrats like most of what they hear but they won't like this. john bolton explaining to abc why he would not cooperate and testify back during the impeachment. >> i didn't think the democrats had the wit or the political understanding or the reach to change for them what was an exercise in rousing their own base to say that they impeached donald trump. >> it's been interesting, a mild word, to watch mr. bolton beat up the democrats but also say, you know, that he can't -- he's not comfortable voting for joe biden and and write in another republican and hope that democrats end this at one term. >> if he were subpoenaed now he would agree to testify, so there's been sort of an evolution of john bolton from the days of the house impeachment inquiry when initially we weren't sure if we were going to see him and, you

know, the subpoena was eventually -- they did not pursue a subpoena pause his deputies' case went nowhere and john bolton came out and said he would testify in front. house and continues to say that. but democrats are saying it's too little too late. ultimately they nighted this information last fall when they were building their case, and now john bolton coming out with several explosive allegations in his book which is going to be released to the public officially this week. among them he said that obstruction of justice was a way of life in the white house and particularly with this president, and he made some very, very staunch allegations in the president's relationship with china, with china's president xi jinping with his relationship from the ukraine president so obviously we're seeing a trend by democrats kind of throwing their hands up at this point saying where have you been? >> that's a very good way to put it in these very dizzying times. appreciate the help of all through of you. we'll continue the conversation. these stories are not going

away. this important footnote, the white house changing the coronavirus measures, the one mandatory daily temperature checks are now gone. now voluntary, temperature checks for white house staff. those in close proximity to the president and vice president will still receive temperature checks this. comes as the u.s. coronavirus death toll is approaches 120,000. more on the numbers when we come back.

today is a big day in new york city's coronavirus reopening. phase two kicks in meaning outdoor dining, retail and salons are now open along with more beaches and more parks, but that progress in new york comes as many other areas of the country are reporting numbers

heading in the bring direction. let's take a look at the latest. let's show you the national map. a lot of orange and red, that's bad. 23 states, nearly half, heading up and 11% case growth this week compared to last and you see big states, florida, texas, michigan, among the states there, arizona as well as you look at that. ten states holding steady. that's the beige color. 17 states heading down, the green states and with 23 states on the way up, 11 dangerously on the way up or with big numbers anyway. highest, ten states reporting their highest seven-day average, so we're months into this. ten states, ten states hit their highest seven-day average of new cases on sunday, yesterday. obviously a point of concern there. if you want to look at some of the states, you can see california in green. texas behind t.florida and arizona. if you go back in time we talked about this since the beginning, this is flattening the curve. this is not. you can see these lines going up in these four states.

others as well. let me bring in hour chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta. sanjay, the governors of these states say we've got this. we'll deal with this. when you see going from april into may and then, boom, especially texas, arizona, california, what goes through your mind? >> i -- i worry that we're going into a period of exponential growth. i mean, people have become familiar with these terms, john. i think that -- that there was always an expectation as things start to reopen that the numbers would go up. it became a question would it go up like a plateau here and then go up to a higher number and plateau, or would it start to actually start to burn like a forest fire as dr. michael osteholm has described it where all of a sudden it starts to exponentially growth up. it's a earn k.beginning of last week there were 18 states that showed over 50% growth and now over 23 states. we follow this day to day, but if you start to look back even

month to month as we've been doing this, you see this really concerning trend. i mean, it bounces around day to day, but it's a concerning trend overall. john, the other thing is did we find the basement? yeah, look at this. look at what the eu was able to do. that is what a wave looks like, right, and i find this graph both inspiring and very troubling at the same time. inspiring because you see what is possible and what the european union was doing taking their case counts very, very low. the united states seems like we found the basement at 20,000 new infections per day. that's not a good basement, john, and now we're going up. >> that's the rough spot we're in. you're 20,000 to 30,000 new cases all of last week. let's take a look at some of the other numbers. this is hospitalization. again, it's california, texas and arizona here. california has said pretty much a flat line with a high number of hospitalizations, but, still, that's a stress on the system and then you see texas, pretty much a flat line and all of a

sudden you start to go up. arizona has been flat going up at a slower pace than text yeah, but if you look at hospitalizations, sanjay, the governors are saying we knew it would be inevitable and we're going to have more cases. this is what we're watching. is it a strain on health care system? >> that's right. that's the term flattening the curve. that's what that was all about. let's flatten the curve because we want to slow down the pace in which we see new people becoming infected. i kind of regret in some ways, john, that that became the metric for success, by the way. if we don't red line the hospital system, we'll have succeeded. that wasn't really supposed to be the only metric of success. that supposed to stop the bleeding, if you will, so, you know, in some places we were able to do that, but now there's a concern, especially in states, john, where the populations are more likely to be vulnerable, so think about, you know, retirement states, florida, arizona. you're going to have people who are older there. you will have people who have more pre-existing conditions so in addition to a number of

infections going up in those places and arizona is going up, you know, i'm concerned about arizona and florida in particular in addition to the numbers going up. people who get infected are also more likely to become sick and need hospitalizations. 75% of the icu beds in florida are already full, and they are going up. i mean, that could be a real problem, john. >> san. on your podcast you talked to dr. zeke emanuel who was an obama adviser, and one of the interesting things and i want you to listen here when asked what would you say dr. trump? >> i think in the third week of february i did advise the president and i did say to the president that you've got to do what lyndon johnson would have done or franklin roosevelt would have done is you create a tornado of activity so you've got a task force that deals with testing, a task force that deals with ppe and a task force that deals with ventilators and

contact tracing and they created a small task force that was supposed to do all of that. that was totally inadequate, and i think it would have made a huge difference. >> pretty plain here. he thinks they came nowhere close to understanding the scope of the challenge. >> yeah. now i'm thinking there might have been a deliberate minimizing of this problem which i find, you know, really, really troubling because you look at other places around the world. south korea, by the way, south korea, they never went into a lockdown phase. people keep saying here and understandably we don't want to go into lockdown again, get it. south korea never had to go into a lockdown phase. fewer than 300 people have died, why? because they did exactly what zeke emanuel was talking about. y in brought a biotech company together and said let's make the best test and figure out contact tracing and take this seriously. how people behave with inadequate information is sort of the key here, and in this

country we kind of minimized this problem and have a lot of catchup to do. >> a lot of catchup to do. >> appreciate your time and insights as well. thank you very much. >> coming up, a big week on capitol hill in the police reform debate. a key republican, senator john barrasso, joins us next. ♪ piled high with veggies they're back. any footlong is a $5 footlong when you buy two. for a limited time. subway. eat fresh.

it's a big week for the police reform debate up on capitol hill. democrats in the house are advancing their plan and republicans in the senate will move to open debate on theirs. there's some areas of overlap but some big differences which include whether police officers should be protected from lawsuits and whether no-knock warrants should be banned. the president making his thoughts clear on twitter sunday night writing the democrat house wants to pass a bill this week that will destroy our police. republican congress women and men will fight against it as they keep us safe. joining us now is senator john bracio. thank you so much for your time as we start this busy week. the question in the senate, first, will enough democrats vote with you on republicans to start the debate? but you've got to give to get. are you confident that there

will be actual negotiating and compromise, or are we going to have senate republicans have a plan, house democrats have a plan and then a month from now we're saying nothing gets done? >> well, john, we have a real opportunity now to make significant progress. i think probably the best in 25 years in the areas of police reform. the bill that i've -- that was an original co-sponsor with tim scott, the justice act, it is serious and sensible and significant and will make a difference in the lives of americans. we need to get a result. some people try to make a point. i want to make sure we can actually pass a law. you know, the house bill and what tim scott has introduced, the justice act, there's about 70% overlap and agreement there. so that to me is good place to start. we have a history already of doing bipartisan legislation with the cares act for coronavirus with the great american outdoors act just like week so we can do this. we need to make sure that the democrats don't filibuster and

chuck schumer has been threatening that. we have an opportunities to help our communities and the police officers who need the resources to be able to do a better job than what we've seen in the past that they have been doing. >> the house is obviously going to pass something that will be unacceptable to you. the senators are saying we want to know that you're serious about having an open mind. let's have some amendments. are you open at all say on the issue of qualified immunity? are you going to move the democrat way or is that a non-starter for senate republicans? >> that's a legal term and it has to do with how many police officers they can sue, and i want to find out how many people we can save in terms of saving their lives. if you have something where you have 70% overlap and agreement, we ought to make sure we do that with body cameras on officers, with doing the sorts of things to help eliminate bad police officers and help the good cops having the resources that they need, having the accountability, the training, all of those sorts of things so that you have

better results on the street, and so what happened to george floyd will never again happen to any american. we can take and have measurable, meaningful progress, john, in that direction, but if the democrats filibuster us in the senate, then we're never going to get there. legislation is made by the senate passing a bill, the house passing a bill and then going to a conference committee and ironing out the differences so i think it's important that the democrats in the senate don't filibuster and block the whole thing because they want the issue rather than a result to help the american people. >> legislation is also made, senator, and you're a sensible guy. i know you know this by trust and you're right about the recent bipartisan agreements, especially after the wake of the coronavirus and we can go back and rewind the tape. there's not a lot of trust between the parties. 19 weeks to an election. are there quiet conversations under way that convince you can make that progress, or do you start this as you try to advance the bill this week in the old

way, polarized? >> well, i will tell you we have a senate prayer breakfast. we get together every week and there is trust and understanding and agreement that we need to get a solution on this. it's only a group of about 20, but it is bipartisan, and we want to make sure that we solve these issues that have been plaguing america for far too long. we need results, and we need to get a result, and we've introduced i believe a piece of legislation that will make a major difference for our country and help our communities and help move us forward. >> let me ask you quickly a couple other issues. john bolton alleges in his book that the president of the united states essentially gave president xi a pass, said go ahead and build the concentration camps for the rieger muslims and the president told axios that wasn't true but he conceded he delayed sanctions because he was in the middle of the trade negotiations with common and didn't want to upset the apple cart, delayed standing

up for the human rights of a population that's being persecuted in china. the house speaker nancy pelosi called that appalling. is that a piece that you would consider transactional, the dignity of another human being? >> i don't know the specifics of that. i do know that the president has been very forceful on human rights in hong kong and i support what the president has done specifically with regard to human rights. it the comes up every time we have hearings for a secretary of state in the foreign relations committee on which i serve. i tend to ask questions about making sure that human rights are protected and that's a big part and an issue for me. >> senator this morning the president again on twitter raising the idea that mail-in voting is somehow an invitation of fraud, and he upped the ante by saying mail-in ballots 2020 will be the most rigged election in our nation's history unless this stupidity is ended. we voted during world war i and world war ii with no problems and now they are using covid in

order to cheat by using mail-ins. does it not worry you, sir, and i know you're a loyal republican, have the president undermining the greatest institution saying if you go to states with mail-in voting for a long time, including republican states, that it's just not true. >> voting is a right and a responsibility and it's an opportunity. we have as serious that i take very seriously and it's a state's obligation to enforce those issues. what we're doing in wyoming -- >> as a republican leader, would you ask the president to just not do this, that it's not helpful? >> well, i tend to not want to comment on the president's tweets because otherwise i'd be commenting all of the time. we know that in the past there has been fraud with mail-in ballots in some locations. i think states that have been doing this for a long time and are working on it and know how to do it best are able to do those sorts of things. other states that are just going to try to recreate it at this time i think it's a problem. what i see nancy pelosi doing, however, with many so of the legislation in the house, and

she had it as part of her $3 trillion visit to fantasy island as a cares act, what she wanted was a federalization of all the elections and i think the states ought to be able to make those decisions. until wyoming we send out to every voter an application to apply for an absentee ballot, but that doesn't mean that everyone is going to do that, but we certainly shouldn't be sending is out ballots without at least making sure that the person there has requested it. >> i think what wyoming doing is what should be done. that's a great point there, senator. i agree with you. most of the time i agree with you on the tweets. i don't bring them up this one. this one on such a fundamental issue but we can agree to disagree on that. i'm grateful for your time, sir. >> thanks, john. just ahead, nascar investigating a shocking incident. a noose found in the garage of driver bubba wallace. whoo-hoo! great tasting ensure with 9 grams of protein, 27 vitamins and minerals,
