andrea, that's right. i'll be perfectly canned it with you. you know from the discussions that we would have off the air here in the bureau and elsewhere that my own reporting and my experience in covering biden now for more than a decade had been pointing me in a direction that he was less likely to run in 2020, that we would have a similar situation as in 2016 where he got close to the line and backed off. but my conversations over the last week or so with members of his inner circle has me realizing that his default position is that he will run for president. two things are clear, one is that he believes he has time. you were in munich, you heard him say over the weekend that he thinks we start our election process too early. as one biden adviser said to me, we just had the super bowl. we know family is still a factor, it's not a factor in the same way that it was in 2016, but he does want to take advantage of this additional time and make sure that while a final decision has not been made, before he gives that green light, that the pieces

negotiating table tomorrow that these sort of insults flying back and forth of course they can force and we remember we saw andrea let some the leader of the conservatives in allam and sort of talking about european intransigence today and that was the reason why nothing would be moving and it was all the fault and so on it's a force that everybody in brussels was quite fed up with that. we've been hearing today that mr joe's was aiming those words directly. boards john what do you say about that and what about the backlash to that in the u k. the backlash is coming from precisely those people and i think donald tusk was entirely justified in saying they rushed into this entire process without any clear idea of how they were going to get to a safe landing so it's rather refreshing to hear that having said that the problem is that reason and her government is still really in exactly the same position they haven't got a united position she hasn't got a solution that she's sure she can get through parliament she's been desperately trying to talk to the northern irish today to see whether she feels any movement there

can figure out what the hell is going on. we have no choice. we have no choice. >> so andrea, what do you make of what the vice president told you today? >> well, it's complicated, because of course the muslim ban per se was not upheld. there were other iterations of it before it became country-specific, and that's what the supreme court upheld, not a broad muslim ban. i was trying to get at the whole issue of how muslim-americans have been discriminated against and have been categorized and profiled by this president when he was a candidate and since. that said, what she said was deemed, you know, inappropriate. it was an anti-semitic trope as far as the democratic leadership is concerned and a lot of other people are concerned. it's a big theme in poland because the vice president and his wife will be visiting the uprising of the polish jews in the warsaw ghetto in 1943. it lasted for a month against the polish and nazi regime. then on friday of course auschwitz. there's a very heavy overlay here of politics here as well. the truth is that steven king, congressman king was
