the first term barack obama and second her barack obama were totally different people but what i will tell you is one of the main reasons he has that b plus is the accountability when it comes to issues of policing. when it comes to issues of policing. this is one of the greatest thing, steve jobs was in our lives for a moment. i am serious. people are taking videos. the news is getting out. we have seen walter scott, freddie gray who never should have been taken into custody. in baton rouge, we have seen what happened in sacramento, we saw a local issue, a man in a police chokehold, saying i can't breathe. but the problem is there is still no justice, no accountability. we have been beating the drum in the black community from the time the slave was brought here, since slavery. it is the truth. the issue in the black community, considered myth and conjecture, now you have the video to prove it. what happens next? is the thing. the reason why he fell into it by mistake, talking about skip gates, a knee-jerk reaction. he goes home to get to his house and the neighbors call the police o

so barack obama didn't exactly deliver the big results. these are -- >> these are all barack obama's numbers. you know this. this is barack obama's economy still. i know the address of chicago. just -- >> laura: the media -- the point -- >> i know people you can -- >> laura: guys, the point of that particular graphic is median household income. that's how much money you bring home. that's really important. it wasn't just -- it was in part under bush, too. >> barack obama did the hard work that trump is reaping the benefits. >> laura: food stamp up participation went up 4%. >> and ben carson announced -- >> laura: we're making a substancive point and look, i want to be fair here because i want joel to get his point out. but i think to say just refle reflecti reflectively, donald trump is bad for black people. the economy is soaring. when you say about the millionaires, i get what you're saying. he's out of touch. but he wasn't out of touch with the working class people. that's why they rejected the globalist republicans and it's odd, that w

made. >> we are joined by professor julian zelizer and the editor of the book "the presidency of barack obama" the first historical assessment of the obama administration. so pull together the riders for this without obama administration legacy to analyze what that may be? >> and with that chapter i want the historians to think about the presidency. and then to be unprecedented and then to come to the presidency and then it gets you out of that context and with a historian of race relations. and then to tackle the question what the administration tried to do on the issue of institutional racism. and what is the legacy. >> you mention the challenges of the obama administration and without congressional party that in the book they read obama could never figure out a way that legislative branch since the 1994 electionse and then winning control of the majority for the first time in 40 years. how do you think obama's effort efforts. >> george w. bush obviously with the polarization of both parties and within a party so obviously the current presidency is different but and then in the senate and t

the one thing i remember saying a lot is how people would prepare for barack obama's -- compare barack obama's election to martin luther king stream to a person who can reflect change. forward allu fast of that today, and think about what is going on during the past year or so, you have got to think, what what dr. king say if he was here for one day only? what would you say? i think he would say we still have a long road ahead of us. he would probably say we need to love each other and we still need to tolerate each other, no matter what your age, gender, race, religion, or creed. call.thank you for the dr. martin luther king was at the balcony at the low rate motel. a couple of tweets. change will not come to wait for some other person or some other time. we are the change that we seek, quoting president barack obama who anthony was talking about a moment ago. and there was a tweet from congresswoman barbara lee. i met with sanitation workers who work with dr. king 50 years ago for better working conditions. so inspired to hear their commitment to a quality to make sure every worker h

thing that was observable and yet ignored was the degree to which there was real hostility toward barack obamae right. >> obama's a terrorist, don't you know that? >> obama's a muslim. he's a terrorist himself. >> narrator: he saw the hostility firsthand. >> i can't trust obama. i have read about him, and he's not... he's not... he's a... he is an arab, he is not a. >> no, ma'am, no, ma'am. no, ma'am, no, ma'am. he's a... he's a decent family man, citizen, that i just happen to have disagreements with. narrator: mccain wouldn't take advantage of racial prejudice.>> hey had a rule in the mccain campaign that if you... if there was any hint that... that the mccain campaign was going to use racial animus against barack obama, you would have been fired and banned from republican politics. was a red line that was never crossed in 2008. my wife and i are expecting our first child, april 2, next year-- thank you- and, frankly, we're scared. we're scared of an obama presidency. >> narrator: mccain tried to reassure his supporters...to >> i havell you, i have to tell you, he is a decent person, and a p

bush, barack obama and donald trump.e became debris in the highway of our news culture and the white house didn't vet him. donald trump through him on congress and senator test ergot ahead of himself. tester, i think went after him in a way prematurely. >> that speaks to a level of bias that the white house has to deal with. that is why the harvard kennedy school found that 90% of the press coverage is negative. you want to talk about the president skipping the dinner -- >> you are talking about them looking at the in the first 100 days. >> do you think it has been better? >> i'm not saying anything. it is a big supporter of the president. where do you think this lands with his now, as john brought up central question of questioning tester. i know things about you. >> i think that he was right when he talked about how senator tester went after him and calling him the candy man and these attacks. and it plays to a bigger point on how we are in washington, d.c. whether or not we think that admiral jackson should have the q

obama. if they selected and african-american elected barack hussein obey the lever they could vote for a woman okay maybe not. in minnesota they said we hit the low mark with obama. this is the floor but then with hillary clinton it went that much lower. so 75% noncollege but to have the trump approval rating in the 70s maybe 31% margin? >> so with thosee incarceration levels to look at those educators that suggest it could be considerably worse. and we know firsthand about the opioid addiction. i regret i cannot recall those offers within to do that analysis of the creation of jobs 95% of all job creation so that trendline is the type of thing that drives wedges and differences between the different constituencies so there is good news for democrats there is the incredible path that is engaging directly and it is measurable in a consistent way so that medicaid expansion and what that means to the community that is ant variable where you put yourself in a political context and then to see virginia reverse course because we had so many republican that previously said no i'm not voting for that.

if they elect an african-american named barack obama, certainly they can vote for a white woman. or not. i just remember in 2016 in minnesota people say we hit the low mark with obama. democrats can't do any worse than this and it went that much lower. so could you get to 75% of? i can't remember they had the approval rating among those in the 70s and it was a 31% margin in the high 60s. >> sure. it can always get worse. it is on a canvas that's influenced by a lot of other folks painting thfolks paintingo what's happening in the incarceration rates etc. when you start to look at the composite as indicators, the trend line suggests that it could be considerably worse with incarceration levels and obviously we've all heard about often we know firsthand what the opioid addiction means. 95% of the job creation was an informal sector area it elevates the differences between the different constituencies. it change changes it in a measue and consistent way so if there is an explanation if i'm in southwest virginia medicaid expansion means something to our particular community and that g

barack obama did even more than what cambridge analytica did in 2012. barack obama campaign. compromised the privacy of over 25 million americans. in fact, they bragged about it. "the new york times" wrote a very flattering piece saying the obama campaign was technologically sophisticated and cutting edge to be able to use facebook as a way to run a modern-day campaign. zuckerberg didn't apologize after that. zuckerberg didn't testify in front of congress. make no mistake, the only reason zuckerberg testified in n front of congress and facebook is under attack, some of the data might have been used to help a republican get elected president of the united states. nothing to do with privacy, nothing to do with internet rights or freedoms and everything to do with democrats who are upset that big tech monolith might have been used to aid a conservative candidate. mark: should they be regulateed? >> i don't necessarily think so. they should be treated as a public forum. that is an important distinction constitutionally and for the courts because they're not a content provider. th

actually as you mentioned of barack obama a black man the president in a way the country's come back to it's not forwards. ball some would say perhaps the country is gone backwards but i've heard others tell me today that really what has happened is that some of this race is feeling some of the stereotypes around african-americans persist and perhaps were driven underground because it was considered impolite to share such hateful views and certainly with the coming of donald trump into the u.s. presidency there is a view that perhaps those people who think that one ethnic or racial group is superior to others feel empowered and emboldened to make known their views but what we have been seeing here in our preparation sewa covered this event is that there seems to be a real recognition that the only way to deal with those views is to actually confront them in the public sphere and to try to change institutions that perhaps have instituted or infiltrated those views and try to get those views out of official policy so a real sea change but the question is how long can this momentum be s

i always like to say, what happens if this was barack obama.he fact that barack obama liked dijon mustard which is a sin. and wore etan suit. >> i like dijon too so whatever. >> uppity. and wore etan suit. now we're talking about legitimate high crimes, treason, scandals, frauds day in and day out. it's like drinking out of a fire hose. if barack obama would have done this, i mean, donald trump's bar is near our shoe laces. that is where his bar is. it's the irony of this goes back to the root of our country. so for me, i just sit. >> scott has a pained look on his face. >> i agree with bakari. >> he's right. the first week obama was in office, president bush's chief of staff andy card criticized him on tv because he didn't wear his suit jacket while he was sitting at the desk in the oval office. and now we've got a president who is tweeting insults day and night and republicans seem to be going with the flow on it. >> bakari is right. >> i agree we should be talking about barack obama this early in the morning because his failure in syria, his

i think he has a very different presidential run than barack obama. and then there's the question with the white working class, which is what happens if those trend lines continue. i mean, there are a lot of white working class voters out there. somewhere along the order of 40% of the electorate. now, the problem for republicans is that sooner or later, you start to run into college students who do not yet have college degrees, who are not particularly susceptible to trump's message. you start to run into baristas in that portion of the whites without college degree demographics. so there is a ceiling for republicans there. we just don't know where it is. and just like i think a republican strategist in 1970 would feel perfectly comfortable that 30% was about their floor with african-americans because that's how it had been in presidential elections for 24 years and then saw it fall down to 10%, you know, i'm not convinced that we haven't seen the worst of it for democrats among whites without college degrees. >> i want to follow up with anna. you hav

we congratulate this years winner, president barack obama on what he has already achieved. >> laura: that was in ten and half month, he was getting people to accept responsibility for facing global changes. if that is the benchmark, then donald trump regardless of what happened, has to be almost a shoo-in for the nobel. i think the timing is right here . >> i agree. perhaps president trump deserve to nobel peace prizes. as you know the authority of th peace prizes is somewhat in doubt. it's a committee of five who ar chosen by the norwegian parliament and they tend to be retired members of the norwegia parliament so that made the mistakes over the years, people who nobel peace prize was not earned. in the case of president trump, this is a tremendous success. the only problem is the degree of pressure used he used to get it made turned the stomachs of some of the norwegian members o parliament. he had nuclear aircraft wing toward north korea he had at discussion with the south korea defense minister that we might return our nuclear weapons to b deployed again in south korea a as many

the withering criticism of folks on the left, can you imagine how they would be behaving if barack obama was president and the events last night. they have criticized this rspresident's diplomacy. look, twitter diplomacy is working. north korea has come to the table in a way that most of us would have never imagined a few months ago. you cannot overstate how big a deal last night was. of course there is a long way to go. but we are here because america is safest when america is strong. and with this president, president trump, we are strong again on the world stage. and to have events like what have happened in the last 24 hours is another big step in the right direction. i afreagree with you. we have to be strong towards china, he's been tough on china. i'm confident he's going to continue to do it. >> he's had great instincts. >> it's been a big foreign policy week for president trump. he held the first state dinnerin for the french president and today he met with german chancellor. >> translator: they have to take their destiny into their own hands because we can no longer as we used

i think it's a very different presidential run than barack obama. what happens if those trendlines continue. there are a lot of white working people out there. the problem is you start to run into college students. you start to run into breezes and that demographic. just like a republican strategists would feel comfortable that 30% was there flow of african-americans because that's how it had been for 24 years and then sought fall down to 10%, i'm not convinced we haven't seen the worst of it for democrats without college degrees. >> let's follow up with and on. you have a lot of good things to pick from in the demographics of the current performance, you laid out a number of scenarios to do very little and you still win or do a lot and you barely win. looking at the current climate and looking into the future, where you think they will be moving? what would you pick out and say i think the democratic party would be doing much better. the second question, i know you spoke about this but you saw some weaknesses around the edges of the democratic coal

in terms of foreign policy, he wants to do things differently to barack obama and he genuinely has apolitics. and for dealing with these kind of regimes and looking like the dominant male has been able to subjugate the other dominant male in the neighbourhood, and that is very much how he has viewed north korea. and now the way he has spun it or is trying to present it is not really in terms of peacekeeping, it is in terms of the fa ct peacekeeping, it is in terms of the fact that he has won with this dictator. i mean, the most important thing is that the stink comes out of it because things did get hairy and if it does, that is a great thing. we should still remember that the motivation behind this and the attention to detail afterwards is linked to perhaps more to donald trump's temperament and meal —— and male ego and it is his peacekeeping skills. i think we should be optimistic, cautiously. the danger is that donald trump is going to raise expectations, his own expectations. there is no doubt the north koreans will stay a nuclear country. that is it, that is it. yes, there is ze

cities were run by black americans and as we mentioned in two thousand and eight barack obama reached the highest office in the land becoming america's first black president so while progress has been made blacks in the u.s. still face many challenges their unemployment rate is double that of the white population there are also twice as likely to live in poverty only twenty three percent of black people over the age of twenty five have a college degree and nearly half a million black americans are in jail more than any other ethnic group. let's now bring in our panel of from memphis tennessee we have with us a reverend bernard lafayette he's a lifelong civil rights activist who was appointed by martin luther king jr to direct the alabama voter registration project in one thousand nine hundred sixty two in new york vincent warren is the executive director of the center for constitutional rights also in memphis joining us as tami sawyer she's a social justice activist and a director of diversity and cultural competence at teach for america welcome to you all thanks for joining us on ins

barack obama attacked a casino company. mollie: barack obama did attack companies, fox news and the casino company. it seems unseemly for a president to do that. amazon does a lot of business in china. the editorial page ran a pro china editorial that is disconcerting. people are so upset with donald trump they are not doing as much due diligence with what's happening on the editorial page. mollie: the president was asked about stormy daniels. michael cohen and the president said he didn't know about it. cbs, abc, nbc, all led with this. we can put that up to show you a taste of it. did this deserve to be the lead story? >> what the president said is consistent with what the white house has been saying, that the president had no knowledge of the $130,000 payment. the story diminished dramatically once she went on 60 minute *. she spilled all the detbailts affair. the agreement has been violated because she has given a national interview. howie: do you think it's been overplayed? >> absolutely. howie: the media loves stormy.

donald trump says this is barack obama's fault because the first tame this happened, barack obama didme. do you think he's right about that? >> no, i don't. barack obama did put down a red line and i personally wish we had followed through on that. however, what had happened was that barack obama was looking for support from congress because he didn't want to do something outside the law, and ten congress would not support that. but do i think the thing that is the issue, president trump actually had the same event a year ago when they took these kind of action, and the truth is that it was just a one-off because there's no syrian strategy. i mean -- >> stephen: just a one off if syria using the weapons? >> no, in us responding to it. >> stephen: because there was a targeted missile strike on a syrian base. >> syrian base, and also it had come as a result of chemical activity by assad, same kind of thing, and president trump said this was the way that he had to pay that back to show. but there was no strategy at all. and that's what the weakness of all this is. we have no idea where h

the government responded with a heavy handed crackdown by the end of the summer then president barack obama had called on president bashar al assad to step down but the flashing quickly turned into a full blown civil war in august of two thousand and twelve president barack obama drew his famous red line for syria warning president bashar al assad that if his government used chemical weapons and there would be an enormous price to pay it all goes to the following year it appeared that line had been crossed. hundreds of people suffocated in rebel controlled neighborhoods around damascus firing at the mouth and suffering convulsions. the u.s. blame the syrian government the only party known to have access to sarin gas but instead of directly ordering military strikes a bomb i asked congress for approval the pressure for u.s. action east after a united nations resolution demanded that syria destroy its chemical weapons but certainly a new threat rolled into town a bomber announced in strikes against a different targets in syria the so-called islamic state also known as isel. last night on my o

that was barack obama's position. he allowed four assad to remain in power even though he threatened to remove him if he crossed the line. yet this very kind of ideologically mixed debate that does not follow along traditional right and left lines. donald trump when he ran repeatedly said the u.s. has no who runsin deciding syria. that it is not the business of the u.s., that the u.s. cannot afford to do it, that the u.s. is not when a make the situation better. and you people on the left as well who are saying the west should stay out of syria. then you have these militarists in both parties who are itching always for a new war and see this as an opportunity to start one. honestly, israel wants assad gone. that is really the shift, the debate that has emerged. the question is, do you think the neocon militaristic foreign policy of the democrats and republicans of the last 15 years when it comes to the middle east has produced good or bad results. if you think good, you should be cheering ben cardin and marco rubio, d

"the daca program was unilaterally created by the obama administration in a memo penned by former homeland security secretary napolitano. just as easy as it was issued, it can be rescinded. presidential policy is not set in stone and changes from one of administration to the next." so far, judges do not agree. >> yes, there are three judges that don't agree. we might note that the third was a george w. bush appointee, as a republican president. not partisan. what he is saying is, look, you have 90 days to tell me this is specifics with regard to criminality. jeff

as he invaded crimea, what did barack obama do?nkets and mres. donald trump sent lethal arms. barack obama canceled missile defense in poland. donald trump gave them patriot missiles. he has unleashed energy. >> arthel: can donald trump have it both ways with president putin? >> i don't get a lot of things he does. maybe he is playing a game. by any objective measure he has been tougher on russia than barack obama has been. and if you go back to the debates in 2012 it extended through to 2016. >> arthel: i would like to have some sort of an intelligent discussion here. if you would not -- go along with political talking points and listen to my questions and answer it would be better. i'm going to ask a question i would like you to answer it. how might the administration's stance on and aggression toward russia change with mcmaster's ousting and john bolton's entrance as national security advisor? >> it will be a wait and see project. if donald trump the leader of the free world does not instruct his cabinet officials to want to dea

those are just a few rules that barack obama said not for me. >> tucker: the idea was we were brave and when it was unpopular. can you think of a single example where obama or his wife said anything that would be unpopular in williamsburg, brooklyn, or washington, d.c. or los angeles? they seem to just read from the script of their friend. do they ever challenge conventional wisdom on anything? >> you know, no. to be fair, one, there was one time i heard him give a speech about vietnam veterans and i thought it was a good speech. and he basically gave no safe harbor to people who had attacked our vietnam veterans. >> tucker: good for him. >> other than that, tucker, he was a fake on taxes. he was awful on healthcare. he expagesded the administrative state. he invepghted a bunch of presidential authority he didn't have. i would say with no reservations he was the worst president in my lifetime. i'm 43 years old. absolutely no doubt about that on any metrics. >> tucker: i wonder if he -- and he invited al sharpton over to the white house 70 odd times as a policy advisor. i wonder if he an

that is the same percentage that that barack obama should be reelected in 2010. at one point lower than those wo supportive bill clinton. last time i checked, they were both reelected, right? here is another indicator of the democratic national committee might be in some trouble. they took out a $1.7 million loan in february. they are fund-raising, it is pathetic. there republican national committee took in $39 million in the first quarter alone. do you think that might be because of the president? of course the president has some work to do. he has to grow the populist movement, take his message to unfriendly territory, and salads. that means and states he didn't win. grow the days. the democrats are in perpetual teardown resistance mode, trump should be perceived as a doer. he is, a leader who will always defy and drain the swamp will not be defeated by it. that's what he was elected in the first place. all the president needs to do is just a focused on what matters. growing the economy, returning more power to the people, fighting corruption along the way, and

barack obama wouldn't have been president but for the legacy of martin luther king jr. would not have been president. now, if you think i'm being harsh, fine, but somebody's got to tell you that is a fact. that's not fake news. that's not fake news. if somebody wants to offer me a rebuttal and say, oh, obama would have been president without the work of martin luther king jr. >> no. no, no, no. >> he himself said it. i'm with him in the white house graciously taking a picture with him and he's grabbing my hand and he said, but for you, john lewis, ct vivian, i would not be in this oval office. so, my brother, where are you? >> okay. on that note, i just have a factoid from roland martin who had lunch with the president for the state of the union. okay, yes. roland said the president told him that he would -- this president, donald j. trump, the day of the state of the union when he mets with all the anchors that he was supposed to be here, right? he said to you he was going to be here. that's from ronald martin. the president did offer a video. it was on twitter today.

follow the rules, insinuating what that barack obama was a rule follower.he secret service and international security for 12 years, you know what one of the rules was? don't leave your people behind to die in a foreign country when theal embassy or special mission complex is undernd attack. when you're an irs special agent with law enforcement authority, you don't target conservative groups out there with a weaponized -- here's one more doozy y. when you're an executive branch official, you don't go out and usurp authority that is not yours on immigration by claiming prosecutorial discretion on people who cross the border illegally, those are just a few rules. >> tucker: can you think of a single example, where obama or his wife said anything that would be unpopular in williamsburg or washington, d.c., or los angeles, they seem to read from the script of their friends. do they ever challenge conventional wisdom on anything? >>>> no. there was one time i heard him give a speech about vietnam veterans and i thought it was a good speech. he gave no safe harbor

judge jeanine: i recall all the times barack obama talked about his international coalition and all theeople who were with the united states, and none of this happened. and now that this has happened for the second time, do you think that this will stop? was this an operation that would put more of this chemical weaponry to rest or destroy most of of it? >> i spoke with ambassador nikki haley and she confirmed the strikes did go right to a major hub of the chemical weapons on certainly others say syria is still capable. by the many important the interest national community see what happened here and what the response was. getting assad to understand that this country and our allies at the very least, the u.k. and france will not sit idly by and look the other way which -- when he's gags his own people. but there is confidence they struck at the hub and took out major source. he did it a year ago to the day. and this president took action also. he's been leading on this issue for over a year now and will continue to do so. i would refer everyone to his public remarks. they are worth the

people sometimes don't see that, because there was a charismatic individual name barack obama." his point is without obama, wheree are the democrats? >> i think they're fine. the thing that you missed there in that calculation is that you have fewer people identifying as republicans. they become swing voters, independents and alike with donald trump in the white house. right now it is the case that donald trump is about, i think in the clear politics average 41% approval. ov54% disapprove. that's a real wake in the mid terms. >> laura: that's about the numbers he was before the election. >> it hasn't got much better. >> laura: before the election. >> you mean the 2016 election? , laura? >> laura: before the election he was about 39% approval. overall approval rating of all voters. i don't know how much it means. it is about 50% in the daily tracking. poles are polls. >> i would say look at the averages and the clear politics. he's clearly way under water. >> laura: temy point is you thik bernie sanders is wrong? he's making a point that the working-class voters have been left beh
