>> marching and rallying. he believes that he should take the high road. he says that it's important to look the other way and to not, you know, get in the trenches of anything and to just ignore it, he says. >> he talked with you for almost an hour and we've all seen the president's tweets, megan, about what is happening to confederate statutes all over the country and here, too. he called them beautiful. he said that it's sad that they're being removed, what did dr. carson say about the president's tweets and feelings on these statutes. >> you know, as we're know. the president tweets several times a day. so there's a lot that you can sort of dissect in the tweets that he says. some of the times you're kind of wondering, you know, maybe that's not the best idea to tweet something like that. pressed secretary carson on many of the tweets he doesn't believe that there's a problem with the president expressing himself to the millions of flo

in fact, he says, you know, as it relates to the most recent, tweet, though, we're didn't have a chance to talk to him a little bit about the tweets from today because, of course, we're interviewed him yesterday. but he did talk about the statutes. he says, we're all need to talk to each other about them. there needs to be some sort of dialogue and understanding. we're want to play for you a little bit of what he had to say of what relates to race relationships in our country. >> we're do live in a diverse society. so we're have had got to reach a point where true tolerance exist. people throw the word tolerance out, but, you know, what they really mean is i'll tolerate you if you agree with me. that doesn't really work. >> it was also interesting, we're had an opportunity to talk a little bit about the tweet and the endorsement or the former kkk wizard,

president trump from the which in which he handled charlottesville. i asked secretary carson if he saw a problem with that. he seems to think that david duke has his own agenda and the president would not be happy to have the endorsement of any white supremacist. >> they shouted kd as he rode by in the parade. news 4 darcy spencer is on one of those -- why does everybody say they love him so much. >> well, i think it's because he gives back so mh.

what about the alt-left that came charging as you say, the alt-right. do they have any semblance of guilt? >> well, it was a surprise response from the president even surprised a lot of members on his staff. and it's not like anything we've ever heard from a president in the wake of a tragedy, some say, the president's response to

charlottesville on tuesday raises questions about his ability to what they call the consoler in chief, which is part of the president's job. >> and here to talk about this is nbc news white house correspondent kristin wilkins. how did this president's response to a previous presidents. >> well, the president's critics would argue that his predecessors have really been focused on trying to unify the country in the wake of tragedies like we're saw over the weekend in charlottesville. instead, they would say what we're heard from president trump is divisive language and, of course, he made that initial statement on saturday that enraged a lot of people. they felt as if he was trying to -- and then he walked that back a bit on monday. but then reversed himself, again, on tuesday. in the wake of tuesday what we're saw has been just stunning. the fact that you have seen ceo's turn their back on

to disban two of his business council, the manufacturing council and the second council. the president preempted them. the bottom line, the optics, he's the jobs president and he had some of his former colleagues saying they don't want to work with him. then, i think what might have a bigger impact for this president you have a number of lawmakers weighing in and denouncing what he said, not all of them are denouncing them by name. but a number of them are making it disagree with where he stands and then, today a big development, senator bob -- critical of this president came out and effectively said he's not living up to the standards of the presidency. he has to do a better job. the president is on his working vacation here in new jersey. we're haven't seen him today. of course, he did weigh in on the terror attack in barcelona as you all talked about earlier in the broadcast. he remains defiant on h

tweets from earlier in the day. the civil war monuments are at the center of his debate. glad to see the center of great country being ripped apart at the removal, so that gives you a sense of how defiant he is amidst all of this backlash. jim, wendy, back to you. >> thanks so much. and we're invite you to stay with the nbc news working on all today's stories. stay around -- stick around for nbc nightly news with lester holt coming on right after news 4 at 6:00. >> few hours from now, loved ones and friends will come together to remember a 17-year-old shot days before she was said to go to college, jamari died over the weekend two days after she was shot while driving on 14th street and saratoga avenue. police tell us she was not the intended target. officers have arrested one person for the shooting but are still looking for othe
