better than allowing their parents to spend more time and be more involved in their lives. especially from their early days. people work somewhere and they have a child and within two weeks of a cesarean section or three weeks of giving birth they have to hurry back to work because they can't miss one paycheck. it's startling how many parents, particularly first time mothers and people go on public assistance because they lose their job or can't draw a paycheck any longer. no one is required to do this but everyone will have the option of saying i'm going to take some of my benefits, these are your benefits, not everybody else and take a portion of that earlier because i need that money now. people can do that with 401k. you should be able to do that with social security. >> it's estimated thatve 10orkers receives paid family leave from their employers. people need family leave.ero

he>> prefe pr iivate sector because only o out of 10 have it. i hope that number will grow over the years and the more money you make the more likely you are to have it and the less money you make the less likely you are have it. if you're making $300,000 a year in an investment bank you have family leave. if you're making $40,000 a year you probably can't afford to. you do not have it. if somebody has a better idea we're open to it. and it begins from the day they are born by allowing their parents to be involved in the early day of their lives especially and that should not be a bankruptcy inducing event and this one option we think is creative to allow people to take their money and instead of waiting 30 years to get some of it take it earlier when they need it. >> isn't this really asking working class americans to

choose between retirement security and caring for a new child? >> no, ultimately right now they don't have a choice at all of how they're going to pay for their bills at the front end. many people right now if you have a child your job is required to give you 12 weeks of leave but they don't have to pay you so you'll go without any pay for 4 to 8 weeks. most people can't afford that. we have people going on public assistance. this is just an option. no one is forced to do it. some people will decide they don't want to do it but it's an option available for people that they don't have right now because as it stands today if we to nothing you'll continue to see 9 out of 10 will basically not draw any income during that period wor of time it's causing real economic strain right now. >> senator, president trump tweeted yesterday that attorney general jeff sessions should end the special counsel's russia investigation. he called it again a rigged witch hunt. is that obstruction of justice? >> well, i don't know the legal definition of that would be with regards to the tweet.

i don't know if that's ever been litigated. i'm not going to spend my time waking up every morning and responding to some tweet every day. i know, that's what you guys are paid to do and that's fine. if it's something that's directed to public policy but i'm going to spend my time working on paid family leave. i'm going to spend my time in the u.s. senate fighting against the efforts of the chinese to overtake us and move to a political stage. i'm going to spend my time fighting for the people of florida on issues that are important and when something big comes up that needs to be addressed we'll address it. my views of the mueller investigation are clear. he should be allowed to finish his work. let all the truth come out and the truth is going to be good for the president and good for america. >> all of our intelligence agencies have made clear that they believe that the russians tried to fear in our past elections and that they are still trying to do. the director of national intelligence warned about this interference but you voted

against it. >> most of it hasn't even started getting pay yet. so the states wouldn't even be able to spend that money. they wouldn't know what to spend it on. they have barely begun to spend the money given to them a few months ago so if more is needed next year we'll provide more but i can tell you for example the state of florida initially wasn't going to apply for the money available right now because they couldn't spend it between now and november. so the money that we have already appropriated is the money that was based on a professional assessment of what the needs were from a national level and that money was appropriated. if an additional amount is necessary in the future we'll provide it but there is no outcry from states saying they need more money. they haven't begun to spend the money they have right now. most of them haven't carried out an assessment of what they're going to need over the next 4 to 6 months, much less begin to spend it. >> that's even more scary. >> well, here's why. every county is different.

elections in this country are not run by central organizations. they're run at the county level. some counts are further ahead than others. some don't need help. they have it covered. many others do not and they're going through the process of it. it's something to be concerned about, no doubt but this is nothing but a stunt to be able to say thank you for providing the money. we're going to provide more money to make it look like you don't care. but it's not real. >> senator marco rubio, thank you for being with us this morning. >> thank you. >> the daily show with trevor noah has a new book on president trump's most infamous tweets like covfefe. >> he sent it out and delivered it six hours later. why did he stop? did someone tackle him? was he letting the tweet ma marina marinate overnight. >> how twitter has shaped the

"the daily show" host trevor noah talked about investigating the president's tweets. noah and his team are up f three emmy awards this year including outstanding variety talk series. >> now the writers of "the daily show" are out with a new book inspired by president trump's tweets. it's called the donald j. trump presidential twitter library. it's a pop-up library that "the huffington post" describes as the most impressive satire of the current mission to date.

>> it's hilarious and the first time to see a look at the presidency through a historical lens. >> right. >> my quo isyou do you think this crazytiones world we is passingre c irazy or pertine crazy? >> when you look at president trump and that's what helps with looks at tweets and content, you have to look at that man. like a star, he burns bright and burns much longer than a human would expect him to burn. it's always thought of the crazy would pass. people say it wouldn't go through the election, beyond the election, or through his first year or second year. we've come to realize this the world we live in now, that we share with donald j. trump. every single day there's a new story to talk about, often spark by his tweets. >> we get bombarded with the activates. what do you say? >> we can't look at each tweet

individually. it doesn't tell you a story. if you wake up every morning looking at tweets like marco rubio said, you go crazy. it gives you a pattern how trump creates the smallest benign things he he creates nicknames for his political enemies, how much he hates diet coke more than hillary clinton. >> more than hillary clinton or more than hillary clinton hates diet coke? >> more than hillary clinton. and how he sees the witch hunt. how he communicates with people that work for him. you see the twet to jeff sessions is not something in isolation. you start to see a trend. not only is he an interesting president but he's the most prolific twitterer we've seen in our lifetimes. >> the interesting thing is while it's been an impressive way of communicating with his yepporters, what happened sty erdawh heree urged jeff

sessions to end the investigation as "the new york times" put it today, that tweet has crossed a lain that trp never explicitly crossed until now. >> right. >> that it may be a term of obstruction of justice where he directly said on a platform to his tens of millions of followers essentially obstruction of justice. >> what's interesting is we're going to engage in should versus would. people are going to say are you saying should as to what you should do or something you must do, you must stop the investigation? and then also i think it's interesting that donald j. trump has flipped the skriptd on every everybody. he showed us what you do in private doesn't get you busted but doing it public, i've never know how doing something bad in public lets you off the hook. >> as a comedian he gives you

enormous material. >> yes, he does. an embarrassment of riches. >> is some of it -- >> i go, this is the president of the united states. i don't go #notthepresident. he is. that's what the book is about. although many presidents have used speeches and written words to convey ideas, tir donald j. trump uses his tweets and we've decided to acknowledge that. >> there are a whole host of people who say we're too focus on the tweets. as this is happening, there's regulatory rollbacks and real significant changes. but nobody's paying attention to that because the tweets are addictive. >> and to those people i say don't have more than one child because clearly you can't focus on more than one child. have o. what a you ying,>> trevor?

>> i think you can focus on what they're saying and what they're doing. i don't think the two are mutually exclusive. so the idea that we can look at one thing at a time is ludicrous. >> i give you a high five there. i think you have to cover them, but as journalists we have to remind ours, the original reporting, the investigative reporting, the storytelling is just as important if not more important than now. >> that's what we look at. >> that's why you're an emmy-nominated show. let's talk about it. first time. outstanding variety show big time. >> what's funny, there are critics with the team who made this happenic and critics like jon stewart, said, hey, it's going to happen. i said what if it's not. he said, well then you're a failure. >> "the daily show" airs nightly
