covid-19 cases. this as we're still experiencing a 9/11-like loss of life every four to five days. the rally came at the end of a rough week for the president, sinking poll be in, the john bolton book and two supreme court decisions that didn't go his way all on top of swiftly changing public attitudes that put mr. trump on the wrong side of the culture wars that he's always leveraged in the past to his advantage. >> i saved hundreds of thousands of lives. we don't ever get even a mention. >> president trump at his first campaign rally since the pandemic began. >> when you do testing to that extent you're going to find more people. you're going to find more cases, so i said to my people, slow the testing down, please. >> with 26 states recording a 20% spike in new coronavirus cases over the last two weeks, oklahoma among them, the president went maskless, mocking covid-19 with racist language.

>> i can name kung flu. >> insisting on the rally despite warnings from his over coronavirus task force. >> i would get a chance i would get that virus, but i'm not going to get that virus. >> president trump spent nearly two hours on the attack. >> the unhinged left-wing mob is trying to vandalize our history, welcome back. john bolton has pulled off a desecrate our monuments, our trick that few others have accomplished in partisan beautiful monuments. washington, maybe jim comey >> and plame protesters and the being the other one. media for the smaller than expected crowd. the president is facing a built bolton has managed to unite handful of new polls that show republicans and democrats him trailing joe biden against him. democrats are angry he didn't substantially including a fox say it sooner particularly news poll where he's down by 12 during the house impeachment hearings. joining me now is the chai inte points and the rally caps a week where the president suffered a series of setbacks. committee, adam schiff who the rollout of former national oversaw thehearings. congressman schiff, welcome back security adviser john bolton's to "meet the press." new book. >> i don't think he's fit for office. i don't think he has the competence to carry out the job. happy father's day. >> happy father's day to you and there is no guiding principle to my dad. that i was able to discern other >> excellent. let me start with what we saw than what's good for donald over the last 48 hours with the trump's re-election.

>> the president called the southern district of new york. bolton book a compilation of pete williams is reporting that lies and made-up stories and then insisted it is full of they know of no motivation classified information. >> he should go to jail for that having to do with some other case, that this was simply the for many, many years. president wanting to do a favor >> mr. bolton is the fourth for a golfing buddy who is former official to question the president's fitness for office. currently at the sec. the president has called bolton do you accept that explan asian? a wacko, jump mattis overrated >> i can't accept that explan and john kelly way over his aegsz given the pattern and head. >> why do you keep hiring people practice of the president seeking his justice system to that you believe are wackos and liars. >> twin defeats on the supreme punish enemies and bill barr's court on daca and protecting lgbtq employees from being fired willingness to carry that water for the president. because of their sexual also if you look at berman's statement himself, berman orientation. mr. trump tweeted on thursday, apparently has the same do you get the impression that the supreme court doesn't like me. >> it's almost like we're a skepticism. there's a reason why he included minority court. that passage in his statement >> and the late-night friday when he was saying i'm not firing of the u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york. stepping down that he wanted to jeffrey berman was investigating a number of the president's ensure that these investigations associates. continued or words along those >> that's all up to the attorney lines. so berman clearly had a concern general. attorney general barr is working on that. that's his department, not my about why he was being pushed out and given the firings of these inspector generals and department. given the way that barr has

>> i'm going to talk to acting sought to intervene in cases to homeland security chad wolf and help out people like michael michael osterholm in just a moment and i want to bring in flynn or roger stone or seek nbc justice correspondent pete punishment for people like williams to talk about the trump michael cohen, then you really administration drama-filled have to question what's really firing of the top prosecutor for at the basis of this friday the southern district of new night attempted massacre and now york. so, pete, walk us through the last 48 hours where first he was completed one. >> do you want to see -- should i guess getting promoted to a new job and justice. we expect to see mr. berman in it was supposedly a resignation front of congress in the next week or two? and then he wouldn't go and then >> i certainly hope that he will he was willing to go. how did we get to where we are come and testify before congress, and i know chairman today? >> our understanding is jay clayton, the sec chairman raised nadler intends to investigate his hand and said i want that job. he played golf with the this and he should. it's -- you know, i think the president a couple of weekends ago, and barr knew him and so most disastrous management of the justice department in modern they said, fine. according to the people we've talked to barr then said to memory and like so much of what berman, hey, we want to move we have seen in this this guy in, would you like to administration, it doesn't come as a surprise anymore, but yet be sec chairman or the head of the civil rights division at it's completely demoralizing to justice and berman said no. the people in the department and so friday night out of nowhere dangerous to the rule of law. barr announced that the president would be nominating >> have you read mr. bolton's jay clayton for the onand berman

book yet, congressman schiff? would be stepping down and berman shot back no, i'm want >> i have not. i've certainly read the excerpts going anywhere, and i was appointed by the court and i that have been published in the newspaper thus far, and there's will stay until the senate confirms the replacement and by a tremendous amount to be saturday the president actually disturbed about the substance of said you'rity on. them. you know, i would put frankly, >> so, pete, obviously when you at the top of the list the look at this over the last four months the president seems to willingness to change china if only china would help him get have gotten rid of inspectors re-elected and this is a perfect general and folks investigating things and there are folks on echo of his misconduct with capitol hill who look at this ukraine, but more than that, we berman firing and wonder if it's warned during the trial that you about the rudy giuliani could only count on donald trump investigation or things like that, that it fits a pattern. to do what's right for him and not what's right for the country any evidence that suggests that is part of this larger pattern? and john bolton says that is exactly this president's pattern >> no evidence, chuck. and practice that he didn't see it's the democrats so a significant national foreign especially because it was berman's office that handle the approximate policy decision made on any prosecution of michael cohen, other basis than the personal and political re-election the president's former lawyer interest and that's a tragic and although berman was recused from dangerous situation for the that case and is now whole country when the president investigating rudy giuliani's has that kind of myopic focus practices and has prosecuted to giuliani's former associates, what's right for him and is but several people in the office

willing to sacrifice the have told us that they know of national interest. >> know that you wanted to see no imminent case. they don't think this was intended to derail anything, and mr. bolton testify. you wanted to see him do it it may, at the end of the day simply be that the president and voluntarily. the attorney general wanted somebody that they liked better and knew better in that job. you also on eye remember y-- re still, it's a bit odd for had a conversation before the someone to say i'd like to take impeachment and why you didn't a position that somebody else already has and at the end of want to force it, do you regret the day who knows whether this that decision now? is going to work because the should you have fought harder republican and chairman of the for bolton to testify before you committee lindsay graham has voted on the articles? signaled that he won't go ahead >> no. with the nomination unless new york's two senators approve of i think, indeed, our decision has been vindicated by the fact it and they both say they don't. that we are still in court now >> pete williams, really over a year later trying to get appreciate you trying to make some sense out of what was a mcgahn to testify. chaotic 48 hours for what is bolton said he would sue us if also known as the sovereign we subpoenaed him. district of new york. we would still be trying to get pete, thanks very much. john bolton's testimony today, >> you bet. >> and joining me now is the and given that he was trying to cheat in the upcoming election, wolf. we couldn't wait another year to secretary wolf, welcome to "meet the press" and a happy father's get john bolton to testify. day sir. >> great. more than that, we are trying to thank you. >> want to start big picture ratify what we are hearing from

the senators. we made the case when we were urging his testimony in the here. here we are in june and there's senate that the senators would been over 8 million confirmed one day have to explain why they cases of the virus around the didn't want to hear from him globe and the united states accounts for just over 25% of when they had the opportunity. all confirmed cases leading the globe, unfortunately, in that those that haven't run away from statistic. how did we find ourselves in the camera, trump is guilty, the that precarious situation? >> well, i think what we saw house proved them guilty and they weren't prepared to do early on in january and february anything about it and we have the evidence to prove it, we did is a virus that came to the u.s. prove it and nonetheless, what we saw china not being very john bolton has demonstrated and i think to the length and degree clear, not being up front about that he indicts donald trump. what they were seeing early on. we took a number of dramatic he also indicts himself for cowardice and for greed because step, the president did in there were people who did come limiting the spread and the forward. seeding in the u.s. what we have seen is a white people like colonel vindman who house coronavirus task force working day and night to make risked their careers and he lacked that basic courage and sure we have the resources, the patriotism. it was only the agreed that made testing and the ppe and the him come forward in this book, state and local to governors to make sure we can open up this because remember, chuck, what economy in a safe and reasonable his lawyer was saying at the time was that bolton might way. we're seeing a number of states damage the presidency or he throughout the country in different phases, from phase one might violate his own oath and to phase three trying to get that's why he needed to go to this economy and trying to get

the country back up and running court, but those things have given way to a book deal. and we're doing a great job at >> there is some damning that. >> i -- why do you -- if this is allegations involving china what is considered a good job at which he brought up and there are also things in there this point. involving turkey and saudi i say this -- other countries arabia. and europe have been able to these are a lot of things in the purview of the house flatten their curves and we have intelligence committee. do you plan on getting not. if anything, we're on the rise, and i know we're doing more ambassador bolton to testify testing, but i want to show you soon and go under oath with these statistics right now, very these allegations? troubling in the south. three states to show you, yes, testing is up 30% to 40%, but >> we haven't had a chance to read the book, as i mentioned, the positive case percentage is up in florida, 88%. chuck, when we do and we expect in texas, 77%. we will within the next 24 to 48 hours like the rest of the oklahoma, 94% we're in the midst country. we will look at what allegations like those involving turkey and of a spike, is there anything we other countries particularly could be doing now to basically involving china need to be flushed out and exposed to the bend this curve that we're not doing? >> well, again, the coronavirus light of day and then we'll make task force has put out that our decisions, but you know, we guidanc put out cdc has do need, i think, to expose the put out a number of things that states can continue to do in length and breadth of this president's depravity and how their various phases and we're much it is endangering the seeing that from social country and those facts will distancing to the face coverings need to come out and we're and everything in between. discussing with the speaker and

i think it is important when you my fellow chairs just how to do talk about testing we've tested that. >> look, if you don't act now over 25 million folks and we tested more than any other and you sort of wait to act and country and we're logically you wait to see what happens in going to see a number of cases november is that too late if you positive over what we see in other countries. believe he's done impeachable it's important to keep that in acts with the chinese mind, but again, we're government, can you really wait supporting and this is a until after the election to put state-led reopening. we're supporting that through our medical professionals at hhs bolton under oath, to start the and cdc making sure our state and local officials have all of the resources and the knowledge process? >> i don't think we should wait they need to open up in a safe if we conclude that there are important things that he says that need to be exposed to the manner. >> it looks as if, though, that public. the public needs to know exactly what you guys have put out, the what they have in this guidelines that you've put out president. a lot of it is not a surprise, and the guidelines that cdc has but at the same time exposure of put out, even the president and his campaign aren't following this president's misconduct is these guidelines holding an the best way to protect the indoor rally. country. is it a surprise that the public congress can take steps to protect the country. you know, look, those comments is not following the guidelines that the president made when as they should given that the only the interpreter and examples from the top is not wearing a mask and holding an president xi were in the room, blessing the concentration camps indoor rally with the recommendations of public health of the uighurs. officials including people on it's exactly why we want to know

the task force? >> i think i disagree with the what he said to putin when he's premise of that question. alone in the room with putin i think when what we saw in because he is dealing away our national security. he's dealing away the values of tulsa with the president's rally is a state in a phase three this country in secret in order reopening and so activities like this are allowed and when you to help himself, and that's just talk about face masks and face so destructive of everything coverings and hand sanitizer and that this country stands for. a temperature check in those events and these are all things >> congressman adam schiff, i've that are within the guidance got to leave it there. that we talk about. the chairman of the house it is important and a personal choice that people are making to intelligence commity. own face coverings within the we' we'll be watching what you do phase. it is very specific to next with bolton. individual states and we'll continue to provide that appreciate you coming. resource and guidance making happy father's day. sure governors have all of the >> you, too. before we go to break, john informations that they need to bolton will be my guest right make those decisions locally. >> it's been a couple of months here next sunday on "meet the since we've had a coronavirus press." task force public press i hope youio join us for what i briefing. hope to be a fascinating the lack of constant public interview. >> the manyires of reminders of wearing face masks (vo) since our beginning, our business has been people. and social distancing, we're not and their financial well-being. seeing that right now. any reason? it's evident in good times, >> no. there's no reason. with decisions focused on the long-term. look, the coronavirus task force continues to meet. i know the press would like and crucial when circumstances become difficult.

everyday press conferences, but the guidance is still out there that continued emphasis on people - and we're still holding calls with governors weekly. our advisors, associates, clients and communities the vice president is as part of the lead of that task force, so gives us purpose, strength and a way forward. there's a lot of message and it continues to go on both individually to states and today. and always. governors and also to the american people. the american people know about the social distancing and they know about the face coverings and will continue to push that message. >> are you concerned now that we're in an endemic where this virus, we'll live with it and we won't get the daily case load below 20,000 which we've yet been able to do, do you think? >> we have a lot of individuals continuing to work hard at therapeutics and vaccines and that's the end goal. we have hhs and their medical professionals and cdc and the nih and others looking for the vaccines and as we look toward the fall and the end of the calendar year. that's where we hope to be and we'll continue to push that while we continue to do that social distancing and the face coverings and the everyday

practices that we encourage all americans to do. >> i switch is under hhs and has and i'm an area manager here at amazon. an estimated 24,000 people detained and how are you when you walk into an amazon fulfillment center, handling the virus among those it's like walking into the chocolate factory detained and are you deporting and you won a golden ticket. it's an amazing feeling. people who are -- who test positive or are you waiting for them to test negative before you my three-year-old, when we get a box delivered, deport them? he gets excited. he screams, >> as you indicated, i.c.e. "mommy's work!" holds a number of individuals waiting for the deportation. when the pandemic started, we've taken a number of steps and we've had cdc look at those we started shipping out all the safety stuff facilities and adhering to cdc that would keep the associates safe to all the other amazons. guidelines and in almost all of the facilities we've reduced the all of these are face masks, intake to 70% so we can social we've sent well over 10 million gloves. distance in many places. and this may look like a bottle of vodka. we have voluntarily released 900 when we first got these, we were like whoa! individuals that are in [laughing] vulnerable populations or have with this pandemic, safety is even more important underlying health conditions and we're court ordered to release a [laughing] babies, number of other folks. we're taking a number of they're going home to grandparents. measures to make sure those are so, our responsibility is to make sure that they go home safe every single day. as safe as possible. we're not going release

criminals into american communities and we'll do that in a safe and reasonable way and on the repatriation side, we are repatriating back to foreign countries and making sure that they are not symptomatic as we do that and we'll continue to do that and we're working closely with the northern triangles and others as we do that. >> you're not intentionally anybody back that tests positive? >> of course, not. what we know is this virus is difficult. you can be asymptomatic on one day and you can be symptomatic at the viral loads and we're doing everything within the power to make sure the repatriation is safe and secure. we're communicating robustly the panel is with us from their with the foreign government and remote locations. nbc news correspondent carol lee. as we send their nationals back republican strategist al carden to them. >> i want to go to daca, those as, and yam eastern alcindor, white house correspondent for pbs news hour. folks brought to this country as i want to start last night and

children by their parents. what you are hearing this morning from the campaign. it seems to me that the turnout the president described the decision as saying, hey, he of that rally, the fact that actually won. it just means they have to fix they had no overflow, they the paperwork. let me ask the question this didn't need it. way, for someone participating they only had what looks like in the daca program how the estimate is less than 7,000 concerned should they be that attended. >> yeah. nah isolation you can chock that they might be asked to leefr ave up to the health, but when you country in the next two years. combine it with everything else >> the program is clearly that we've seen with the last unlawful and i would point you couple of weeks for the poll back to the supreme court decision at no point did they numbers is this a troubling sign with the campaign that they have say the program was lawful and they simply didn't like the an enthusiasm issue. >> yeah, chuck, they've really rationale and the procedures raised expectations for this that we used and i find that troubling. rally. what we know is the obama they were saying they had over a million responses to requests administration created this program out of thin air and they for tickets to the rally and we haven't been held to task on why really wound up yesterday with they put this out to public something very similar to comment and notice and it is a large decision and a program and inauguration day. the american people needed to the crowd size was the issue. have comment, and what we've seen from this administration is you saw the campaign spokesperson put out a statement we take a logical approach, and saying this was a huge audience they've been very clear about that watched the president's that, and so we find ourselveses rally that's very similar to where we're at today. what we heard on the president's the president's clear. inauguration day over crowd

we need to find a solution for size. the message was very similar, this population, and we'll very doomsday and very much saying if you elected democrats continue to look at that. we'll continue to look at the and if you elect joe biden the opinion that the court produced liberal mob is going to take this week, making sure that we adhere to that, but we are going over. so the president had that kind of a message. this comes at a time when the president can't really afford to to end an unlawful program. as acting secretary of homeland security i don't have the luxury lose any more support in the sense that the polls are against him and they're want getting any to uphold the law, we're willing better and the internal polls and the public polls. to sit down at the table and he's got a pandemic and an negotiate with them. >> so are you going to solve economic problem and civil this administratively and follow unrest across the country. sort of what the supreme court the political rally was a risk seemed to lay out about how you politically and a risk health need to give more time in all of wise and he had his task force numbers advising him against this, but he really wanted to go this,or does that mean the president has ruled out just forward with this and a lot of ending this by executive order reason behind that is they feel and he just chose not to? that this is their only play, that they have to get the president out there and whether >> i think we'll continue to or not that winds up being wise, encourage congress we'll see in a couple of weeks how the polls respond and also how the pandemic response, is about that over three and a half years, but at the same time he's there a big spread of coronavirus cases because of also directed the department of this?

homeland security to look at that opinion and look at the >> al carden as, you grew up in rationale and look what the court has asked us to do and that's what we're doing today. a politics that always knew i'm not going to get ahead in campaigns and in presidential front of the president and he'll make that decision at the right races the more optimistic time, but the department will be ready to make that call. messenger usually wins and >> all right. acting secretary chad wolf of that's sht t the department of homeland that's not the case in the trump security. era. i appreciate you coming on and can you discern a message that's sharing the administration's out of the president right now? view. happy father's day. >> well, i think he's playing >> thank you. president trump's tulsa right into joe biden's hands. rally came one day after the united states recorded the most joe biden's campaign is based on new cases of covid-19 since may the fact that he's going to be a 3rd, and at a point when healer. our country is divided. according to johns hopkins our country's feelings are too university the u.s. is doing a far worse job of controlling this pandemic than the europe separate, too different and we need to come together so when the president speaks in a way that divides the country into eeuropean two or more totally isolated, union. look at that graph. joining me is dr. osterholm. segregated pieces it plays right into joe biden and his campaign, welcome back to "meet the but the random thought about the press." i'll begin with the same rally was the fact that it was because the numbers were question i asked secretary wolf, how do you explain that the spreading in joe biden's favor, united states has 25% of the so i think the campaign got globe's cases and we're sadly nervous and oversold rally in

number one with the rocket ship? order to compensate for this >> first of all, good morning declining pollingn also the era. and happy father's day to you, chuck. >> happy father's day to you, sir. i mean without social media you >> thank you. couldn't have 800,000 people and at this point we don't punk the campaign, but getting tickets and getting the campaign really have a national plan that to give out bad information, and puts together what we're trying to do. so it was a confluence of, you we have 50 different states and the territories all kind of with know, of panicking over the sliding numbers and the their own plan and you've seen consequence of being punked or in the past week how disjointed pooled by these people and that it is and what we're trying to was it for the trump campaign do. we are at 25% of the cases than last night. >> yamiche, i want to bring up we were at the very height of john bolton here and there is a april. pattern in the pattern in the this is what we need to do to criticism of john bolton to get that kind of effort and others that the president has that's one of our challenges. criticized. >> is this a failure of testing and tracing. he loves them when he hire those is that where this failure is or folks and hates them when they is this just across the board? go out. >> a brilliant, wonderful man. >> well, we have to understand >> what has he done for me? that as i've said to you on multiple occasions, we're not what has he done in afghanistan. >> i like bolton. driving this tiger, we're riding he's a tough cookie.

knows what he's talking about. it and while other areas are doing much better around the >> he made some very big world and stopping it after a mistakes. john wasn't in line with what we very difficult period of time with it, we haven't done that were doing. >> i have tremendous respect for and part of that is the fact him. >> we were not really thinking that we just have not really, i the same. >> of course, yamiche is some of think, gotten the message across to the public yet that this is a this is because these four serious issue and we can shut gentlemen have put damning things about his fitness for office. john bolton, stunningly down of the economy and this virus is operating under its own uninformed. john kelly, we need to look time and under its own rules and harder at who we elect. we are trying to act like somehow we can impose our will on this virus and that's what's mattis, rex tillerson, someone happening. other countries have been much more aware of the fact that the who is undisciplined and we can't help, but wonder if this virus is going do what it's going do, and so you have to is having an impact and this basically stay locked down. pile-on, questioning the you have to limit transmission president's leadership. in areas that we're not doing >> i think what you saw last and that's what i think you're night and what you see going forward is a president who is seeing right now is the increases in a number of states playing defense, who is trying and everyone is back to a to really put out this pre-pandemic mindset. >> basically, without a national that he is a strong leader and he's someone who has the virus under control and someone who structure here and if we let has his re-election under this be 50 flowers blooming on control. what we see in the john bolton

how to do this, we're never going to get control of this book and it's a 500-page curve? bombshell detail after detail >> well, we do have to allow for john bolton's thesis is that the local decisions, meaning that, president is unfit to be president and that he is someone you know, in some cases it will who tries to curry favor with be different in rural america strong men and authortarrian, than another area. at the same time, what is our and what makes his book so goal? to hear that we don't want to do testing is wrong. obviously, we should be testing damning is what you laid out in as much as possible. second of all, once we have the vacuum. you think of general mattis positive tests what are we doing saying he would ignore commands to make sure additional by president trump because he transmission isn't occurring. had a stream of consciousness you've heard a number of stories with a meeting and he was in the past week about some of undisciplined and senator bob the failures of contract corker who talked about the fact tracing. we should learn from those. that the white house was an what are we doing to improve adult day care and the president upon it. took issue with that. right now we don't have even at in john bolton's book is someone a local level necessarily the of laying out that there are kind of plans that th these quote, unquote, and steering himself sometimes doing transmission over this period of bad things because of their own time and we need much more clarity that way and it seems back to the virus for a second because it sort of stung that random. why are some areasnd chad wolf, and i understand in one way he's saying what he's

supposed to say which is we've done a good job, but there is no acceptance of responsibility here of how we are the country that is leading in a number of cases. it just, you know, we're the same size as the european union, and they flattened this curve and we haven't. is there any concern in the white house that they have just botched this completely. >> i know there is concern among the president's political allies publicly about how the president's handling of coronavirus will impact his re-election chances in november and also not only that, but how the gamble that they're making on putting the president out there with the message that everything is fine, get back to normal and hold big rallies and gather around that that's a real gamble for them, too, specifically because they're not at the same time asking people to follow their own cdc

guidelines. so the virus is a wild card and they know it. >> all right. let me pause it here. when we come back, there were events across the country elebrating june at fisher investments, we do things differently and other money managers don't understand why. because our way works great for us! but not for your clients. that's why we're a fiduciary, obligated to put clients first. so, what do you provide? cookie cutter portfolios? nope. we tailor portfolios to our client's needs. but you do sell investments that earn you high commissions, right? we don't have those. so, what's in it for you? our fees are structured so we do better when you do better. at fisher investments we're clearly different.

data download time. for many americans june 19th, juneteenth has long held a special meaning, but for others, especially white americans this was the year it was suddenly recognized everywhere. even so, momentum to recognize the holiday has been building for quite some time. first let's talk about what it is, juneteenth, is june 19, 1865, the day union troops arrived in galveston, texas to announce the civil war was over. the news hadn't to award people that the emancipation proclamation had freed enslaved people nation wide. texas made june teenths an official holiday and 46 states and the district of columbia have joined and done the so. the only exceptions are north and south dakota and hawaii.

in the last few years we've seen resolutions recognizing the holiday pass congress numerous times and there's now talk of bills and both chambers to make it a federal holiday. as we have seen with other cultural shifts, corporations are ahead of the policymakers. just look at this wide array of household brands that offered employees a paid holiday this year. 47 states. congressional resolution and big moves in the private sector. add it all up and we could see the entire country recognize what african-americans have known for a long time, that june tenth celebrates freedom for everyone and is worth of a national holiday. when we come back, did president trump just lose a big

welcome back. let's turn a bit more directly to the campaign trail and al, i want to play a snippet of what the trump campaign wants to make their sort of consistent attack ad message on joe biden. let me play a montage of these various attack ads that they've been running against biden the last couple of weeks. >> joe biden china's candidate, iran's candidate and osama bin lad

laden's candidate. >> joe biden can't stand up to the candidate, he never has, never will. >> china china china. they want to make it about china. here's what bolton wrote about one specific meeting between trump and xi. he turned the conversation to the presidential campaign pleading with xi, and he wheat and the electoral outcome. i would print trump's exact word, but the government's pre-publication review process has decided otherwise. vanity fair got a hold of unredacted words that said make sure i win. how does this undercut what the campaign thought would be an effective message against biden? >> first, i've known john bolton for almost four decades and know him well and i believe john

bolton. he may have many fault, but he's a truth teller, and so i'd take anything he says about china and the presidency and alarming. china right now is trumping -- pardon the pun, on hong kong and they're invading the border with india and relations with china are horrible and the information about china's intelligence breaches are also quite alarming and so i don't know that it's a good idea to harp on china, but i do expect joe biden to do so and this say way to neutralize biden's campaign and take on china and the record on china. i don't want see a plus one way or the other. >> well, and in this case, you know, the democrats are also going to try to make hay of china. yamiche, i want to show this graphic of the matchup between

biden and trump and how very slowly it's sort of been, it's one of those things if you check day to day, the presidential race doesn't change that much until you look at it over a three-month period and as you can see here the race has gone from a three-point race on april 15th and a little before april 15th to where it is now, close to double digits and what's got to be alarming for team trump is the trump number is eroding faster in some ways than the biden number is growing. >> think that's why you see the president feeling like he had to go out on the campaign trail to reinvigorate his base and get those numbers higher up and the president is not overly concerned about poll numbers and as we saw in 2016, there are a lot of signs and a lot of people saying don't think about these numbers too much. the spread is growing and it's pretty clear that joe biden by staying at home mostly by making very select visits to places that he has a strategy that's

working for him. i was just talking to the biden campaign this morning and they told me that they're rushing to make an ad out of president trump saying that he would be slowing down coronavirus testing. the white house says he was joking and he said that at a rally. so what joe biden's campaign is doing is if we sit back and let president not mention george fwlo floyd's name if he keeps doing stuff like that we can point to president trump or not have the gas that we know joe biden at times has made. >> it's been interesting, carol, that the trump campaign is desperately trying to mike hay, joe biden doesn't answer questions, and joe biden doesn't campaign and come on, media, get him out there. it reminds me of a losing football team, why won't they pass? why are they kneeling down? there's a reason they're running out the clock. they're winning. >> yes. one of the things i was talking

to one of president trump's campaigners is they're trying to rebrand joe biden. they believe voters think they know who joe biden is and what they're trying to do and they'll get aggressive on this. we've seen some of it is to basically say this is not the joe biden that you know. this is somebody who is not fit to be president. he's not all there mentally. they're going go at the idea that he is not fit for office because he's unwell, and so -- and that's just one of many ways in which they're reaching back for their 2016 playbook. >>. >> yeah. it's an odd thing to hit biden on when the president keeps bringing up his own issue with the health watch, as well and the odd amount of time he spent on that. i have to wrap it there. that is all we have for today. thank you for watching and thank you for trusting us and a big happy father's day to everyone out there who is a dad and we'll
