morning." anthony mason is joining us. nice to have you here. >> the reason you're here is because charlie rose is in california where he interviewed sean penn. the actor is breaking his silence about his secret trip to mexico to meet the notorious drug lord joaquin guzman. mexico recaptured him one week ago. >> sean penn made headlines the next day when "rolling stone" published his account of visiting the kingpin in hiding last october. in an interview for "60 minutes," charlie met with penn last night in santa monica to talk about that trip. >> it's an interesting trip here. sean penn wanted to clarify his involvement in el chapo's recapture. mexican authorities have said knowledge of the trip helped them move in on the drug lord.
7:04 am
his contribution are incorrect and could put him in danger. >> there is this myth about the visit that we made, my colleagues and i, with el chapo, that it was, as the attorney of mexico has quoted, is essential to his capture. we had met with him many weeks earlier. >> reporter: on october 2nd? >> on october 2nd in a place nowhere near where he was captured. >> reporter: as far as you know you had nothing to do and your visit had nothing to do with his recapture? >> the things -- here is the things that we know. we know that the mexican government, they were clearly very humiliated by the notion that someone found him before they did. well, nobody found him before they did. we are not smarter than the dea or the mexican intelligence.

we are going to put all our focus, all our energy and all of our billions of dollars on the bad guy. and what happens? you get another death the next day, the same way. >> reporter: do you make a morale equivalent between el chapo and people who buy drugs in america? >> i do if it's me. i can't make that judgment for everyone else. i wouldn't go so far to buy or sell drugs. >> reporter: at least -- >> i say i can't make him worse than me if i'm not out there doing everything that i can to get a conversation going on the way in which we prosecute that war. >> reporter: you have said to the a.p. -- and i'm asking now -- you have no regrets? >> i have a terrible regret. >> reporter: are the regrets?
7:07 am
entire discussion about this article ignores its purpose, drugs. let's go -- let's go to the big in chicago to stop. we are the consumer. whether with -- whether you agree with sean penn or not, there is a complicit there and if you are in the moral right or on the far left, just as many of your children are doing these drugs, just as many. and how much time have they spent the last week since this article come out talking about that? 1%? >> reporter: you're saying there is not much dialogue about -- >> my article failed. let me be clear. my article has failed. >> charlie, is sean penn still in contact with anybody in el
7:08 am
>> and does he think they will ever meet again? >> no. he said he would have wanted to have met with him again and that was his plan. but, no, he has not heard from anyone in the cartel escaped from a year ago, or six months ago. so that point about him and what he hoped to have accomplish is just one small part of a long conversation about how he negotiated with el chapo. what the deal was this deal and this trip was led by the actress kate del castillo. she had had some contact with her. he was smitten with her and sean contacted her and believed that contact enabled him to go. we know now from some things released by the mexican authorities that there was a very interesting dynamic between the two of them that enabled him
7:09 am
so watch "60 minutes" and you'll see more after very interesting conversation about the deals he made, why he went, and what he thought of el chapo. >> all right. in addition to "60 minutes," how about watching you in our next hour? you're coming back. >> well, and one more thing. he'll be in full, the conversation will be seen on my pbs show on monday night. >> all right. again, charlie will be here in our next hour. you can't leave us yet, charlie. critics of the decision to -- very interesting to hear anything sean has to say about this. the decision for el chapo to preapprove the "rolling stone" article and you can see charlie's full interview on "60 minutes" this sunday on cbs. breaking news from hawaii, where a search is going right now for 12 missing military personnel. they were aboard two helicopters that may have collided off the north shore of oahu.

he stood-to-to toe with donald trump and had a few good moments. donald trump, on the other hand, who is ahead in the polls almost everywhere, even a little bit in iowa in a recent one, had good moments himself. remember, debates were supposed to be his great time of peril, so every one he gets through is an opportunity he has missed an wrong. his 9/11 answer was something a lot of people were talking about. >> for the first time i saw donald trump get booed at the debate last night when he brought up the birther issue and even in boo'ing he turned around and said they are booing about that, they are booing about the polls. what did you think of that moment? >> he has been booed once before and he just plows right through it, which is very donald trump. for his supporters that is what they like about him. he was quick on his feet in a number of different exchanges. again, sort of a theater review but sometimes these debates are theater reviews.
7:15 am
supporters to like in his performance last night and i think even in the booing moment they probably found something they liked there too. >> did cruz take a risk with his values? >> i don't think so. you. and that quite effective to sow those kind of seeds of doubt and donald trump is doing in aplbook.
