8:01 am
from domestic concerns, it may not turn out that way. >> in controversy to his son's e-mails, president trump said vladimir putin wanted hillary clinton, not him to win the 2016 election. >> they're going to see the new text including changes today. but the holdouts say from what they've heard so far, they're not swayed. >> parts of the midwest are under water after heavy rain caused flash flooding. thunderstorms could last through the weekend. along the east coast, millions kansas city face extreme heat. >> heying of course, you're following the big trump junior scandal. >> today's big story is yesterday's big story and also tomorrow's big story. this is the big story for the rest of our lives, guys. >> announcer: today's "eye opener" presented by liberty mutual insurance. >> charlie and gayle are
8:02 am
enjoying some time off. president trump is in france where he may answer more questions about a meeting with his son and a russian lawyer. he arrived in paris this morning to meet with french president emmanuel macron. they'll discuss syria and the recent fw-20 summit. >> it's a sign the two leaders may be getting more friendly after their contentious first meeting with that handshake. ahead of the nato summit nearly two months ago. mark phillips is in paris. good morning. >> good morning. well, when the french president invited the american to president it was to commemorate two anniversaries, but it's also about the contest of wills of two leaders who are in some ways similar, in others, so different. it's the relationship that started with the famous
8:03 am
handshake. the grasp wasn't just to show a friendship between leaders. it was more like an arm wrestling contest. >> he had not only thought about it but prepared for it. >> reporter: francois heisbourg is with the paris think tank. >> what was he trying to do? >> to do his job and to demonstrate to the world that france is back. >> reporter: on the face of it president trump's brief visit here is in connection with the french national holiday and the big parade tomorrow. and it's about commemorating the arrival of u.s. troops in the first world war i 00 years ago, an arrival that helped end the stalemate in the trenches and help win the war. but the visit is full of meaning for today. the two presidents are similar in that they both broke the mold of establishment politics, but their approach to the world's problems could not be more
8:04 am
different. macron is a nationalist believing in free trade and involved in climate change. >> make our planet great again. >> reporter: inviting the u.s. president to paris was not just a gesture of thanks for america's role in a war 100 years ago. it's being seen here as an attempt despite what donald trump has said to keep the united states engaged. >> reporter: after their meeting here today, the two presidents will hold a brief press encounter. two questions allowed for each. this may be paris, butting jeff, we'll see whether the president's domestic concerns have followed him here. >> thank you very much. we'll have a special report when the president speaks to reporters around 11:15 eastern,
8:05 am
10:15 central. donald trump jr. has been widely krit seitzed after he released e-mails showing how an acquaintance set up the meeting last year. he said it produced nothing. president trump told the reuters news agency, quote, i think many people would have held that meeting. and he said he didn't know about it until a few days order. "usa today's" washington bureau chief susan page is with us. she covered the president's election. good morning. >> good morning. >> you heard during the interview many would have taken such a meeting, but with the campaign manager and family involved, does that ring true to you? >> no. i've covered ten campaigns. there's always an effort to find out as much as they can find. but to do so with a hostile foreign government, i don't know
8:06 am
that that's ever happened before. i'm not aware of it f happening before, and to involve the most senior circle of the campaign, that is also really unusual. so this is not the political norm. >> you talk about the machinations inside the white house right now. there was the category 5 hurricane was one of the expressions used. if the president trying to potentially wall himself off from some of these come pli indications, that complicates his work and agenda. >> in one way the difference between that and category 5, hurricanes come and go away. the is here to stay for some time. we not only had this watt e shedd of the release of donald trump jr.'s e-mails this week. we have had two subsequent stories. a "wall street journal" story that says as of 2015 intelligence agencies were hearing about trump's associates and a mccatchy story that says there may have been signs of it.
8:07 am
so these are threads that continue to get pull and this is a story, a hurricane, that isn't going away. >> and the mcclachy story is about. >> that's right. he's actually a senior white house adviser. he's someone who's working at the white house now. that raises some additional questions. >> a member of the senate intelligence committee said he knew about the e-mails and the committee knew back in april. how concerned is the white house that there are more shoes to drop that we don't know yet? >> the president continued to call it a hoax. i think it's hard to do in the wake of these e-mails and he hopes the worst is over. i think he told some associates that. i don't think it's a seen the worst is over. there are certainly more shoes to drop. we assume there are more shoes
8:08 am
to drop because it's a copli indicated trail with lots of stories to follow. one thing we know about internal investigations, sometimes they go where that i go. sometimes they go where you never expected them to go. that certainly happened to president clinton when he was in office. >> that's right. bob mueller now has 16 attorneys on his team helping in the investigation. let's talk about this. repeal of obamacare, the health care bill. first the tax care bill. >> well, if mitch mcconnell gets a bill through the senate, he deserves a nobel peace prize because there's such a divide between conservatives who say this bill does not go far enough to repeal the affordable care ak and more moderate republicans who are concerned particularly about the deep cuts in medicaid spending. it's hard to imagine. i think his claugs is even if they lose, they have to prove
8:09 am
that they tried to do so. then they can move on to other issues. but, you know, health care is not going to go away. there are big problems, particularly with people who are invofulled in the exchanges. they need to get this off their plate if they're going to raise the debt limit, funding the government, cutting the taxes, with anything page, great to hau here. thanks for completing primary colors. we have them all here at the table? we're like a flag. and we announce a new relationship between cbs news and bbc news. the alliance will strengthen both networks' commitment to original reporting from around the world. bbc reporting from 175 countries and reach as weekly global
