>> very calm and very direct. we could cut 50% and more. >> very calm. i've seen both and this was i can work with the speaker. definitely not angry or ranting. i can work with her. >> what do you hope to two weeks notice. accomplish with your personal british prime minister teresa attacks on the speaker? may announcing her resignation >> excuse me. this shows how fake you and the in tearful farewell after news are. when you say a personal attack. didn't you hear what she said about me long before i went failing to find a compromise on brexit. >> i will leave the job. after her. didn't you hear? the second female prime minister she made horrible statements. but certainly not the last. she knows they're not true. she said terrible things. i just responded in kind. look, you think nancy is the same as she was. good day. she's not . i'm andrea mitchell in maybe we can all say that. washington where president trump is about to depart from japan i think right now we are -- i'm only speaking for myself. for an unprecedented decision that is rocking intelligence by i want to do what's good for the country. i think nancy pelosi is not giving the attorney general power to declassify information about the origins of trump helping this country. i think the democrats are russia probe. on thursday nbc peter alexander pressed the president on his

repeated claims that former obstru officials are guilty of treason. obstructionists. they are hurting d ining countr. >> the constitution says treason all they want to do is is punishable by death. investigate because they failed you've accused your adversaries of treason. with robert mueller and the mueller report. who are you accusing of treason? they want to try to get a do >> i think a number of people. over. it doesn't work that way. i think what you look is that just so you know, i was the most they have unsuccessfully tried transparent and am transparent to take down the wrong person. president in history. we gave 500 witnesses. they want an insurance policy so i allowed attorneys to testify should she lose, remember, 100 in front of bob mueller. million to one. maybe said 100 million to 2500 subpoenas. nothing but should she lose we'll have an insurance policy and we'll get this guy out of one million four hundred office. that's what they said and that's what they meant. thousands pages of documents. that's treason. we gave it and get a great that's treason. result and they say this is >> joining me now nbc white terrible, let's do it over house correspondent peter again. our country doesn't have that kind of time. alexander, phil rutger, msnbc >> what is the foreign investigation does not turn out the way you think it will? contributor ruth marcus and >> we're going to see. i declassified potentially harry litman. welcome all. millions of pages of documents.

peter, first to you. i don't know what it is. you press the president and it i have no idea. was extraordinary that response. tell me what was going on there and your reaction to what you everybody wanted me to hear. >> this was a dramatic news declassify. i've done it. conference. we were a matter of feet away. he's a highly respected man. our attorney general is in charge. the president was there to let's see whoo he finds. announce something on a totally different issue. he took our questions. he looked at me directly and asked if i had any. we have documented that i have he focused on this issue which declassified for the purpose of is something that he has just the attorney general. listed repeatedly, this idea that these adversaries committed he can then show them to the public. you have to get down to what vees treason. he doesn't understand the happened. definition of treason, what happened is a tremendous blight on our country. what happened, the investigation disloyalty to the president and they tried to do a take down and then a private citizen is not treason. what struck me in that moment is you can't do that. let me just tell you, this when i told the president that the constitution says the should never ever happen to treason is punishable by death. another president again. it's federal law that says it. the president nodded approvingly and named all these names. >> what message do you want to send to military families with the announcement just hours concerned about you sending later about the new authorities troops to the middle east?

that he's granting to attorney >> i think it will be very good general, this is effective for a in the middle east. president that likes to cast iran has been, they staged himself as a counter puncher, terror all over the world. they are much different country this is the investigative now than when i first got here. counter punch. when i first got here, they were trying to give these other in 14 different locations powers to the attorney general to focus attention on the issue he's been focused on throughout. fighting. right now i don't think iran wants to fight. to undermine the mueller i don't think they want to fight investigation just as democrats with us. are trying to get robert mueller they cannot have nuclear weapons to testify. just as the president had a and under the obama horrible recent loss in court with some of his financial records as we agreement, they would have had await appeals are to be nuclear weapons within five or six years. released. the president trying focus on a they can't have nuclear weapons. totally different issue which is they understand that. >> why should people trust the on his add ver saversaries as h attorney general to select what by name in that moment. >> let's talk about this because is declassified. this attorney general has proved even robert mueller expressed beyond any reasonable doubt that he is a partisan. concerns about the way barr handled his findings? he's not been judicious. >> the question is so false and so phony. people say misrepresented facts >> the letter. >> the attorney general is one to congress. of the most respected people in i'm being kind here. as well as distorting the this country. he has been for a long period of results of the mueller probe

time. he's going to look at a lot of from the get-go. to rely on him to have this documents. some he might find interesting. extraordinary power over what is generally been a consensus maybe he'll find none interesting. decision by our top intelligence for over a year people have asked me to declassify. officials. >> yeah. it's a pretty remarkable move what i've done is declassified everything. and president trump has wanted he can look. i hope he looks at the uk and i to investigate and not just investigate but really go after hope he looks at australia and i and punish those who are in the fbi and at the justice hope he looks at ukraine. department for the origins of i hope he looks at everything this russia investigation back because there was a hoax that during the 2016 campaign and was perpetrated on our country. what trump finally has in bill barr is the attorney general is it's the greatest hoax -- excuse something who is willing to bend me. it's the greatest hoax probably in the history of our country the rule of law in service to and somebody has to get to the bottom of it. his boss, in president trump. we'll see. we saw that with the way he for a long period of time, they handled the conclusion of the mueller report and the public wanted me to declassify and i announcement of the findings. we'll see that with the way he manages this review currently did. into the origins of the russia >> what is it about? is it about getting pay back for investigation. >> these are going against his the two years? >> this is about finding out perceived political enemies just what happened. i won an election. as he's constantly gone after i won it easily. hillary clinton and others

associated with the campaign for hillary clinton. 306-223. i won it pretty easily. ruth marcus, what about the this is all about what happened and when did it happen because legal precedent here? >> i'm not aware of one. this was an attempted take down maybe it exists but i've covered op the president of the united the justice department. states. we have to find out why did i've been around for a long somebody write a text message to time. >> you're a harvard lawyer as two lovers that if she loses, we well. >> i don't say that by my mom is have an insurance policy. an insurance policy to take down glad you did. the reality is there's always the president. we're going to find out what tension between the intelligence happened and why it happened. community and law enforcement over what can and can't be declassified because the intelligence community is jealous about releasing this >> pay back. >> it's not pay back opinion i information. as we saw with the mueller probe think it's important for our country to find out what they are willing to, when it's necessary, reveal all sorts of happened. >> wiare you worried the sources and methods they think investigations are hurting your is appropriate and there's a re-election chances? >> i don't know. back and forth between them. my poll numbers are good. why does -- that's the kind of negotiation that would be i guess we have a 48 today. normally taking place. why does the attorney general we have 51. we have very good poll numbers need this extraordinary grain of authority. why can't he go through the krp i considering. if you people would give normal process. straight news, i'd be at 70, why should we trust him to make

maybe 75. you don't give straight news. these determine nagations about you give fake news. with fake news i'm still winning can and can't be safely let in and out the nation of national the election. security rather than the if you gave serious, good news intelligence community the way you're supposed to, i'd professionals? probably be at 70 or 75 based on i think those are some really important questions and the economy alone. questions for congressional oversight. >> congressional oversight, an >> on iran, sir. issue in great dispute because the president doesn't seem to believe they have the right to >> go ahead. that oversight. how is the justice department going to react to this? >> i just spoke to prime >> very poorly. minister modi and gave him by it's bone chilling on a couple warmest regards and counts. first, as ruth says, it gives -- congratulations. i just spoke to prime minister of course the president had ultimate authority but to accord modi minutes ago. it with this kind of order to i just conveyed congratulations on behalf of our country, myself the attorney general to make unilateral decisions puts his and everybody. he had a great election win. boot on the throat of the he's a friend of mine. intelligence agencies in a way we have a very good relationship that is both unprecedented now with india. >> on iran, sir. but is completely will be of >> you said you admired -- great paramount concern for the >> i want somebody who will be future. the second point, this is not in fair. i think william barr is the most

respected men. one of the most respected men the service of the truth to the doing what he does in our whole american people. by all accounts for the reasons country. i just want him to be fair. you've said. he's got a selective power to i don't want him to be for me or leak out what he wants and anybody else. there's every reason to think it i just want him to be fair. that's what he is. will be used in the political we're going to find out what this yields. i will tell you declassifying. interest of the president rather than the interest and sort of people have wanted me to do it truth telling of this episode for a long time. for both those reasons it's a i think it was very important to do. basically what are we doing? we're exposing everything. really foreboding idea. we're being a word that you >> phil, robert mueller now on like, transparent. we're being ultimately rachel maddow show, jerry nadler transparent. that's what it's about. again, this should never ever happen in our country again. revealing they are in goe thank you very much. negotiations but he doesn't want to testify in public. if this does play out this way, he will be giving testimony, a >> nbc peter alexander at the transcript to be released but white house. not the moment of high drama peter, when we listen to the that demonstracrats have been h president and he talks in his very opening sentence about answering the classification for. >> the president doesn't want decision that he's just made that either. what nadler told rachel maddow that it's a witch hunt. it's a hoax. it should never happened. it was an attempted coup. is mueller is willing to

testify, make an opening he has concluded what the statement and have a transcript be released but is not investigation should arrive at even before it starts. interested in doing an on camera we have seen that william barr televised hearing because he is echoed the president's more thinks it would become a controversial comments about political spectacle and he wants spying and the like. to avoid inserting himself into how independent is this the politics. investigation going to be with democrats are saying that's the commander in chief dictating ridiculous. you have an obligation to the the outcome? >> reporter: you're struck how american people, to the public president obama wouldn't even to testify and answer questions touch an open investigation, not directly about this one that had any relationship to investigation. >> ruth, i want to ask you about him had there ever been one. julian assange. to this president a different about the justice department, 17 charges for the first time going tact. i was struck by his comments as after someone for publishing they relate to the attorney general william barr. material. barr found his man. controversial figure, for sure, he praised him there repeatedly. and a lot of questions that we said he's a highly thought of have raised about what he did in man and said he would do the right thing here. helping chelsea manning to get said he wanted the truth to come out and that everybody wanted the truth in this situation. those secrets out and what was striking also is he was compromising sources to their great risk. that said, a lot of people pressed on the dangers of interested in freedom of the press say this is potentially a declassifying. he wouldn't comment on that violation of the first amendment specifically. in barr who he likes to praise, for sure if this establishing it's a man who only a matter of the precedent that publishing

weeks ago used the president's national secrets. key phrase. he said that he believes spying >> this is another dangerous moment with the justice did take place. department and it's not that was a cue to the president, unrelated to the issue of the keep doing your messaging. i'll keep doing mine from bill unilateral authority to declassify information that barr barr. has been given. this is a person we heard when the mueller report come out use this is basically the justice the word collusion. it doesn't refer to collusion. department asserting a it referred to conspiracy. the president has found a pretty unilateral authority to criminalize what we do as good ally here and he's sort of delivered that message again on journalists. previously, the justice department under president obama this day. and this justice department understood potential >> just briefly, the president implications of going after going to japan. we'll see him actually with the julian assange for publishing prime minister there who has classified information. been very nervous about the u.s. negotiations with north korea. not that anybody should feel particularly warmhearted toward julian assange but there are other ways to go after him. he's been indicted on mump more north korea saying those limited grounds. negotiations are off as long as the decision to go after him is the united states insists on its espionage act over the primary goal. >> this is more of a cultural disclosure of classified trip. it's ended to be for the information. it's very difficult to president. he's going to a sumo match among distinguish between prosecuting julian assange and prosecuting other events. the backdrop to his being in

phil or you or me. that region is the tensions that that should make us all nervous and it's part in parcel of this exist with north korea. he's been very dismissive. wasn't too many summers ago he very justice department we have was touting this language, this fire and fury where he dubbed been seeing. >> we have the pentagon papers. kim jong-un little rocket man. justice departments have this now the president in the face of authority. they have chosen wisely not to recent firings of arms is sort use it until now. of brushed it off and says i >> we're going to have to leave think he'll come back around. it there. i should point out that there will be a lot of pressure president is taking questions. beneath the surface in this trip we're not allowed to carry that to find out exactly what the live. it's not available live but as president is willing to do to soon as it's finish, we'll play try to -- will he go any it out for you. further. will he meet again with kim jong-un. that will be a backdrop to that phil and ruth, if you don't mind region. >> exactly. we'll see you tomorrow on staying. peter alexander, we know you'll saturday today. thanks so much. be running to new york. as you just heard the president >> thank you. >> thanks for being with us. just addressed reports he's considering pardons for a navy coming up, may day. prime minister teresa may seal and army beret including announcing she will resign next others accused of war crimes. month. who will replace her? let's watch. eplace her [ alarm beeping ] >> some of these soldiers are wake up! there's a lot that needs to get done today. people that have fought long and

a former attorney general, mike buchesy, another, bernie carrick, of really discredited in the past for a number of issues. former nypd commissioner was involved in the case. so is the defense using political pressure to try to get the white house to pardon? >> no. and i can say that definitively. if they were, i would have liked to known about it and the family hasn't. the reason i can say that is -- i'll put it this way, eddie is british prime minister teresa may formally resigning just a navy s.e.a.l., right. our family realized when he was after three failed votes to get charged prosecutors leaked selective information to the media. we realized that eddie was being tried in the court of opinion brexit passed in parliament. opinion versus the court of law. >> i do so with no ill will but eddie will smash this on its face. the reason that we have tried to with enormous and enduring hire very competent, skilled trial attorneys is that we gratitude to have had the opportunity to serve the country realize we are facing an uphill i love. battle. myself, eddie, our dad who is a >> she will be leaving downing lieutenant colonel in the army street the day after the and served for 22 years, we're

not lawyers. normandy commemoration and just we're simple military family after president trump's first fighting up against the u.s. state visit to the united government. so we have solicited help from anybody who is willing to offer it to us on how to beat the charges and what tactics we kingdom. should use, and taking any help that we can. we have watched all the trials i mean, my job as the little and criticisms of her that she brother of my, you know, my has mishandled this. brother who is quite technically a legitimate war hero is to try has been stubborn and not listened to advice. and raise as much money and call attention to this cause so that she was dealt a tough portfolio we can fight it on an even level coming in on brexit and boy has -- an even playing field. >> well, thank you for being it been a disaster. willing to come here today. >> it's been chaos. i know this is not easy. the british political body has the charges are very, very been consumed with brexit for serious. the trial has been postponed, the last three years. but it might take place as soon there's been things happening as next week. >> yeah, we don't know yet. around the world that britain >> pretrial motions. should and could have been to be continued. thank you for being here. >> appreciate it. thank you. engaije >> i want to bring in because the military community is deeply engaged in. there isn't the bandwidth to divided about whether the president should consider a pard pardon, retired admiral, nato deal with anything other than supreme allied commander and this situation. she's likely to be replaced by something who is a more hard chief msnbc security analyst. line, prolead brexiter. i know you don't know the details of the case, i'm not

going to question you about that. the question of the president does that become easier. jumping into these cases and he was tweeting about this, and they have given until the end of october. there was plenty of sourcing we have five months left. that he was seriously can we come up with an idea that considering pardons. he seemed to step back from that we can leave the european union. a bit today. >> let's talk about boris >> i think he did, and i'm glad johnson. he did. he's the best known. one thing i agree with chief gallagher's brother is that let's have the trial. the trial is going to be conducted by the military, it's donald trump loves him and going to be a trial of peers. donald trump has just told the press he feels badly for teresa it's going to be fellow military may. he did no favors right before a officers who have gone through weekend of checkers giving an the same kinds of things that interview with an anti-teresa chief gallagher went through. let's have that trial. may newspaper, the sun, and then if he's convicted, there's embarrassing her with comments. >> and specifically in that an appeals process. interview saying he thinks boris at the end of all of that is the johnson would make a fine prime moment when the president minister. appropriately can look at the not music to her years ears at whole thing and see if there's been a miscarriage of just. so let's see how the trial comes out. the bigger picture here, andrea, time. the relationship johnson may be able to forge with donald trump and this is really what the and the administration is one of the people who voted to leave military community is talking the european union thinks he about, is how these kind of might be the right person for cases can hurt us because our

the job. could he come up with a better trading relationship with the opponents will use them for united states to replace what we propaganda, our opponents will use them as an excuse for even more barbaric behavior on the ne need. the problem is the fundamentals in britain are still the same. battlefield. our allies look ascans at this, the country is still split and above all, when we try to between those who want to leave teach our young men and women and those who want to remain. who we're sending into combat about ethics, about morality, about the laws of war, about the what's fundamental going to code of conduct, if we have a shift? or does he say we get to october system that does not have 31st. iron-clad accountability, all of we leave with no deal. that breaks down. and that's what i think is the in the end we think it's better macro worry here, leaving aside the specifics of the case of solution. >> britain is still voting in chief gallagher. the eu elections this weekend. >> what about the system of military justice? meaningless for britain if they from your experience, how -- how do leave. the european union, european does it work, how well does it parliament elections are taking defendant, for the place. we have seen a crisis with accused, and for the military? >> i think it works quite well. bribery, complete collapse of that government. i've been involved in dozens and right wing governments popping up all over.

dozens of cases over the years. steve bannon glorying in all of let's begin with the fact that this. he's repositioned in europe and because the circumstances of financing a lot of this military life and operations are movement. so unique, chain of command, >> not just steve bannon who has been going around europe propping up these nationalist governments and speaking for life-and-death decisions, them but the russians who like enormous pressure at all times, because of that we don't take to see chaos being spread in the our military members and put european union would like the them in front of a jury in sl b weakening of the european union and from the european side, from civilians who have no idea what's happening here in the the french and german side, a military. it's a military system with real effort to hold onto this everybody in it is going to have a pre-disposition to be beside that they believe is sympathetic, to understand the reason for peace and security in pressures that an individual is under in combat. and in my experience, there have europe. been overwhelmingly the right a little bit like what we see here, more nationalist, more kinds of decisions made by populist party who is want military court-martials. something different. that's why again in the case of it's a moment of incredible chief gallagher, i'm glad to hear he wants to get to trial, turmoil. not just in the united kingdom put it in front of his -- a jury but in europe as well. of his peers and let's see how >> the argument that russia played a role in the origin naa it comes out. >> thank you very much, admiral. brexit vote to be determined. thank you for that. >> thank you so much for sharing we really appreciate it. very good memorial day weekend

that was a great catch, buddy. >> if you're a former president of the united states and it is a the feuds between president beautiful spring day, what trump and house speaker nancy better way to spend it than pelosi escalating to new levels dropping in on unsuspecting after the speaker suggested the kids? that's exactly how president president needed an intervent n obama spent thursday here in washington, surprising local intervention. students at an after-school he fired back in the oval office questioning her mental fitness. program at the washington >> it was sad when i watched nationals youth baseball academy. during which mr. obama impressed nancy all moving. by hitting a double on his first the movement and the hands and the craziness and i watched. pitch. he even did his best joe that's a person that's got some theismann impression by problems. completing that touchdown pass crazy nancy, i tell you what. during a game of flag football. on his way out, a quick stop at i've been watching her and i've the academy's on-site farmers been watching her for a long period of time. she's not the same person. market to pick up groceries. just another day in the life of she's lost it. a former commander in chief. >> within hours president trump and that does it. and his allies, including rudy on that happy note, for a giuliani upped the ante tweeting memorial day weekend and this edition of "andrea mitchell out alter videoed of pelosi that repor reports." be safe out there. remember, follow us on line, on facebook and twitter at was slowed down to make her appear drunk or slurring her mitchellreports. and here is "velshi and ruhl." words. >> we want to give this president the opportunity to >> stefnight on assignment. something historic for our

country. friday, may 24th. we want to give this president moments ago president trump spoke at the white house weighing in on the possibility the opportunity to something of robert mueller testifying historic for our country. before congress and the attorney >> you can see or hear, if general's probe into the counterintelligence you're listening on your car investigation into his 2016 radios the actual version follow campaign. >> they want to do a redo, like the original altered, doctored even the fact that they're asking bob mueller to come and audio. joining me former white house testify. deputy chief of staff in the he just gave them a 434-page obama white house. david jolly former republican report which says no collusion. congressman and msnbc political >> mr. president, why should contributor and jonathan people trust the attorney capehart an msnbc contributor. general to select what's it's clear from a number of declassified? even robert mueller expressed sources that pelosi was trying to get under his skin by speak concerns about the way barr handled his findings. about needing an intervention. >> the question is so false and she does know how to get inside so phony. the attorney general -- let me his head for the president of just explain -- let me explain to you something. the united states to knowingly post altered videos, doctored the attorney general is one of the most videos, david jolly, let me go to you first. what have we come to here when the speaker of the house, someone in line for the succession of the presidency,

constitutional position is being attacked this way from the oval office? >> we're now three years into a president who continues to shatter all the historic norms of the office of the presidency. while we are shocked by it, i suppose we're not surprised. i think the bigger picture for the president is he is welcoming this battle, if you will, directly with speaker pelosi. he would like to fight this investigation battle between him and nancy pelosi. the investigations, the courtrooms, if you will, the president continues to lose but politically, among republican leaning voters, nancy pelosi is still a remarkable foil for this president and i think he's welcoming this back and forth and this baiting however it might debase the office. politically it's good with his base. >> jim, when you look at nancy pelosi, despite the problems, she had about 25 members of her caucus arguing in favor of

impeachment. she's trying to slow it down. clearly getting more aggressive against the president to show she's in this fight, just doesn't agree with their tactics. >> no, that's exactly right. nancy pelosi is playing 3-d chess and donald trump is playing checkers. every single time they come at each other, she walks away the winner and now he's taken -- every time i think this guy can't sink the presidency even lower, he does. it's embarrassing. he makes richard nixon looks like an ethical leader here. this is just ridiculous. i think we ought to call it what it is which is sexist. he wants to pick on nancy pelosi. he likes picking on women. he thinks the politics are good for him. the problem he doesn't seem to understand is she controls a lot of his future. she can control what he actually gets done for the rest of his presidency. every time he does this, he

really damages his support with swing women voters that he's going to need in pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin. i think he's doing himself grave damage. >> to show just how much she's getting under his skin, let's take a look at another way that he tried to defend himself yesterday. >> i haven't changed very much. been very consistent. i'm an extremely stable genius. okay. >> stable genius, jonathan capehart. >> uh, yeah. he's used that before to try to defend himself. through this whole thing there are two things that are consistent with the president. he is major projection artist. the things that he accuses other people of, you can see in him. >> don't go all freudian on me. >> sit a fridit is a friday. >> he is guilty of major

projection. we're used to having bigger people in the oval office. presidents of the united states just because of the nature of the job as leader of the country, leader of the free world, they are supposed to be above petty things. what we have seen over the last two and a half years of the trump presidency is that there is nothing that is too low for him to comment on. whether it's the speaker of the house and her demeanor and her looks and everything or a private american citizen who is not involved directly in any kind of fight, he's going to go there. this is a president who has not risen or filled out what we have come to view as the presidency. this is also someone who always needs a foil as jim as saying but also thrives on chaos. >> we're about to see the president. he's departing for japan for a

state visit. it will be the first head of state to meet the new emperor of japan and we're about to see. he talks for a number of minutes on a variety of subjects as he's leaving the white house to board marine one and for that flight to japan. the state visit will last a couple of days including on monday, memorial day, a press conference. a joint press conference with the prime minister. let's see what the president had to say and we'll talk about it on the other side. >> we want to be very transparent. i declassified everything. everything they want. i put it under the auspice of the attorney general. he's a great gentleman and a highly respected man. everything that they need is declassified. they'll be able to see how this hoax, how the hoax or witch hunt started and why it started. it was an teamed coup or take

down of the president of the united states. it should never ever happen to anybody else. it's very important. people have been asking me to declassify for a long period of time. i've decided to do it and you're going to learn a lot. i hope it will be nice but perhaps it won't with. >> why are troops in the middle east? >> we want to have protection. we'll be sending a relatively small number of troops. mostly protective. some very talented people are going to the middle east now. we'll see how and what happens. it will be about 1500 people. >> any legislation at all in 2019? >> that's possible. i do believe you can't go down two tracks. all they talk about in the house

is this. i'd like to talk about lowering drug prices, which i've done better than any president, ever. we had a year, this year, drug prices went down first time in 51 years. i'd like to talk about because with congress, i can get prices down 40 and 50%. i can't do that when all they do is want to try and do a redo of the mueller report. they were very unhappy with the mueller report. they want to do a redo of the mueller report. it's over. there is no redo. they lost. it's very clear there was no collusion. it was no obstruction. there's no redo. >> should doctors be forced to perform transgender assignment surgery? >> we're going to see. we'll see. [ inaudible question ] >> i feel badly for teresa.

i like her very much. she's a good woman. she's very strong. she decided to do something that some people were surprised at. some people weren't. i like her very much. i'll be seeing her in two weeks. david. >> why are you considering pardoning war criminals and does that endanger our troops? >> we're looking at a lot of different pardons for a lot of different people. some of these soldiers are people that have fought hard, long. we teach them how to be great fighters and then when they fight sometimes they get really treated very unfairly. we're going to take a look at it. i haven't done anything yet. i haven't made any decisions. there's two or three of them right now. it's a bit controversial. it's very possible that i'll let the trials go on and make my decision after the trial. >> anything to say to michael avenatti? >> i wish him a lot of luck.

>> are you going to talk to teresa may? >> i may well talk to her about that. there's word and rumor that the fbi and others were involved. cia were involved with the uk having to do with the russian hoax. i may very well talk to her about that. >> relationship with nancy pelosi soured to the point of being too personal and some of the altered video of her being spread around, is that going too far? >> i don't know about the videos. i can tell you what i'm hear is to help the country. that's why i did this. our country is going unbelievably well. we have the best economy we probably ever had. we have the best jobs numbers we ever had. we have the best unploemploymen numbers we ever had. that's what i'm all about. i don't think they can go down two tracks. i want to get drug prices down. i want to get things like if you look at infrastructure and other, i want to get a lot of things done.

i don't think they are capable of going down two tracks. i thinkt think it's right is yo
