. >> what would you have done -- what other jobs did you consider besides going to work for ben graham i only applied for -- i went to graham and said i'd work for nothing and he turned me down. i did go down to merrill lynch. i went to merrill lynch and this woman put me in this little room to wait. about -- there were a couple of guys in there already and they got called up. three or four came in after me. these guys were all really fat. and they kept getting called in ahead of me. i finally decided merrill lynch had some minimum weight requirement so i left. if they called me in earlier i might be working for merrill lynch today. i got tired of all these fat guys. i thought i must be at a pro football tryout or something. i only weighed about 135 or 140 pounds. i decided there was some requirement at merrill they hadn't told me about. >> oh, how different you life might have been. >> different. >> you keep talking about the 10 guys, maybe, 10 people maybe you've seen that could outperform. is there anybody actively managing money today who investors can still get in with in that gro

, you know, sort of on the forefront of something important, it was john mccain and lindsey graham and even ben sasse standing up for and against vladimir putin and his efforts to threaten and kill and seize territory and to really be that counterweight. in the last eight years, there were growing concerns that his power in the region grew, that he was -- he had blood on his hands in syria as the general correctly stated. but what trump is doing is he's going to get putin on the cover of "time" magazine again as the most powerful man in the world and if there's anything that makes trump mad, it's someone getting bigger than them. what trump's doing inadvertently is making putin bigger than him. he is elevating putin to a level that putin does not deserve and he deserves our deep suspicion and only where entirely necessary, our cooperation. but in no category does he deserve our sycophantic praise. that's what he gets from this president. >> general, benefit of the doubt, is what we're seeing a new president who has not spent a life in politics, members of the house can get security briefings th

to pick up on what you said because a number of even republican senators, john mccain, lindsey graham, bense, former c.i.a. director michael hayden have said their concern is that by doing what the administration has done it's going to, not make this country safer, but it's going to encourage those overseas who are trying to recruit new people into the jihadist movement. they are going to use this as an excuse and say, see, we told you the u.s. doesn't like anybody who is muslim. in other words, they're saying it's going to have the opposite of the intended effect. >> i'm aware of those comments. but i respectfully disagree with them. i truly do believe that president trump making decisions to pause our various immigration programs and refugee programs for a period of time so that we can ensure that there are new safeguards in place, just as secretary kelly described this week, is in keeping with the expectation of the american people. and i have to tell you, having been a governor and now having the privilege to serve as vice president, it heartens me to know the passion that president tr

bipartisan push to stiffen sanctions against russia and people from john mccain, lindsey graham, to democrat benarden and -- does mitch mcconnell bring the sanctions bill to the floor of the senate and confront donald trump on this issue? we don't know where the administration stands. that is -- what pushes them to go after this issue on trump? what's it, comments like these, or do they stay and let donald trump clean it up? >> when you ask people about this, whether they're people who served in prior administrations, democrat or republican, people are divided where, some people say he just doesn't get it, doesn't understand it, and hasn't taken the time to learn it as president, hasn't taken the time. other people say he is just stubborn. he doesn't want to say he was wrong. democrats, though, are starting to be more open suggesting there's something nepharious at play? >> i want to know what the russians have on donald trump. i think we need to have that investigation done by the fbi through his financial, personal, and political connections to russia and we want to see his tax returns so we c
