i'm talking about john clames c and john brennan. they were both singled out by president trump this weekend who called them political hacks. this after president trump declared that he believes russian president vladimir putin and not the american intelligence community on whether moscow actively helped him win the white house last year. the russians saying, no, they didn't meddle. american intelligence officials across the board, even some that the president appointed, strongly disagree. earlier today, those two men, clapper and brennan, were on cnn's "state of the union" with jake tapper saying that president trump is being duped by foreign interests. listen to this. >> well, first of all, he was referring to us as political hacks because he was trying to delegitimatize the intelligence assessment that was done. jim clapper, jim comey and john brennan did not write that assessment. it was written by the intelligence officers of this great country. i feel very honored to be associated with jim clapper and jim comey in the same cate

jim clapper and john brennan did not write that assessment. it was written by the professional intelligence officers and law enforcement officers of this great country. secondly, i feel honored to be associated with jim clapper and jim comey in the same category. considering the source of the criticism i consider that criticism a badge of honor. i found it particularly reprehensible that on veterans day donald trump would attack and impugn integrity and character of jim clapper who served in uniform who responds to the call of this country to go to vietnam and flew over vietnam and like senator mccain did put his life at risk. to impugn the character on veterans day who has dedicated so much of his life to this country i find that outrageous and something that i think that mr. trump should be ashamed of but it doesn't seem as though anything he does he feels any shame whatsoever. >> senior white house correspondent traveling with the president all over asia. today he is in manila, the capitol of the philippines. they have credibility. they are

>> first, i have to reciprocate what an honor it has been to serve with the likes of john brennan and jim comey who are dedicated public servants and serve this country long and well. i think it cannot have a positive impact on the moral or the workforce of the intelligence committee. i do believe in my heart that the men and women of the intelligence community will continue to convey truth to power even if the power ignores the truth. >>> let's discuss this with our panel elise, fredrick plieken and cnn political analyst and historien and professor. we heard rather harsh words coming from two former u.s. intel chiefs about the president. how might this latest division impact the relationship the president has with the current intel community? >> well, the relationship between the president and the intel community has been strained on this issue for so long. you really can't separate the advice that the president is getting on russia from the advice on north korea or isis when the president sends a message that he doesn't have confidence in his intelligence community who's briefing hi

that prompted this emotional response from brennan. >> jim clapper, jim comey and john brennan did not write that assessment. it was written by the intelligence officers and law enforcement officers of this great country. secondly, i feel very honored to be associated with jim clapper and jim comey in the same category, and considering the source of the criticism, i consider that criticism a badge of honor. third, i found it particularly reprehensible that on veterans day, that donald trump would attack and impugn the sbintegri and character of jim clapper who served in uniform for 35 years, who responded to the call of his country to go to vietnam, flew in over 70 combat support missions over vietnam, and like senator mccain, really did put his life at risk because of this country's national security. to impugn the character of somebody like jim clapper on veterans day, who has dedicate sod much of his life to this country i find outrageous and something that president trump should be ashamed up, but it doesn't seem as though anything he does he feels any shame whatsoever. >> aside fr

it was not written by directors comey, clapper and brennan. it was written by the career professionals inside the intelligence community. the same career professionals who were in there in january of this year when that report was finalized, and who are still there now as president trump has disparaged it. so while president trump has tried to train his ire and to turn this into a political football, he's actually delivered a broadside against the entire workforce that still continues to serve him today, demoralized as though they are. >> shannon, it's not like we've launched a marshall plan to strengthen our election process against an ongoing electronic attack so what must donald trump think of that intelligence assessment deep down? >> and that's what has some people on the hill, republicans and democrats so frustrated, is put aside your personal -- the members of congress are saying look at this broader issue of russia interfering. i even talked to one campaign staffer from the trump campaign who finally acknowledged and said, you know, li

that's a fair question and i think the agenda is that brennan particularly is a d.n.c. guy not a professional. intelligence guy he's a d.n.c. guy was put in the job and they he has a desire to see the democratic national committee succeed and if trump succeeds they can't it's a zero sum game for them and so i when these things come up they talk about oh trump is wrong trump is naive trump is bad on these things and they use and they burnish their credentials to try and make that point they are finding it recently at least that they have fewer and fewer people standing next to them going yeah they're right those these two are pretty much alone now saying these sorts of things because we cannot go on with permanent enemies around the globe as these two apparently want us to have and having a permanent enemy of the russians is insane and i don't think trump is interested in doing that guy's a deal maker he wants to wants us to proceed successfully in the world wants the world to proceed successfully and look at his goals it's not territorial ambition it's not making money

you have brennan, clapper and comey.o you look at that and you have president putin very strongly vehemently says he had nothing to do with them. now you are not going to get into an argument. you are going to start talking about syria and the ukraine. then came the tweet. when will all of the haters and fools out there realize that having a good relationship with russia is a good thing, not a bad thing. there always playing politics, bad for our country. i want to solve north korea, syria, ukraine, terrorism and russia can greatly help. now he appears to be walking back his rant against the u.s. but he is still as careful as ever to avoid criticizing putin. >> i believe that he feels that he and russia did not meddle in the election. as to whether i believe it or not, i'm with our agencies, especially as currently constituted with their leadership. i believe in our intel agencies, our intelligence agencies. i've worked with them very strongly. >> joining us now, juan zarate and former deputy national security adviser to

it was john brennan who infused the fusion dossier.id political hit piece and john brennan ought to be careful when talking about who has harmed the intelligence community. i can think of nothing worse than putting in disinformation -- piece of information that may have been funded by russia in part into the system. i mean, this is really, really crazy stuff. rob: chuck, the status of the investigation, you know, there has been some ties to it but they are not really getting a huge smoking gun at this point. do you think it's still coming or do you think that when you investigate an entire administration there's always going to be some kind of ties to anywhere, right? there's ties from the clintons to russia. >> let me give you the democratic view from the far left, i don't care who did what, whether it was hillary clinton or donald trump or whether it was the russians, whoever it was, let's get the facts and let's get it over this, the american people are sick of this. we have a lot of work in washington, d.c. to try to get the countr

margaret brennan is traveling with the president. >> no one, no deck day tore, no regime, no nation, should underestimate ever american resolve. >> the warning to north korea was unmistakable. president trump's first stop in asia was this u.s. air base. >> should i put it on? >> where the commander-in-chief donned a bomber jacket in front of cheering troops. and renewed a pledge to defend japan. >> you instill confidence in the hearts of our allies, and you strike fear in the hearts of our enemies. >> tokyo needs that reassurance. in recent months, north korea has launched two ballistic missiles over its territory. uniteam was the message. as japan's prime minister, shinzo abe, warmly embraced mr. trump presenting him with campaign style baseball caps that said donald shinzo make alliance even greater. the two leaders then played nine holes of golf. while their wives had tea and went shopping for pearls at a high end boutique. >> the relationship is, really e e extraordinary. >> they met at a tokyo restaurant. >> we look each other. our countries look each other. don't think we have

>> morgan, thank you morgan brennan in the newsroom >>> dan is actually making a call on ge into the event. why don't you head over to the plasma. >> i will head over to the plasma here's the thing morgan brennan did a nice job describing what went on or what has been going on. with ge. >> you okay, guy >> i'm all right. >> massively under performed its industrial peers over the last couple years here. then all of a sudden things have gotten confused. there's been management changes and a lot of uncertainty about what that earnings power is going to be. what this company is, this big conglomerate, how do you value all the pieces of it to me, november 13th, that's monday you have this event. john flannery seems to be the right guy to kind of re-right this ship here it could be a little messy in the near term. that's why i think it makes sense to be contrarian using options defining your risk here's a five year chart of ge it's pretty much a disaster here one thing i think is pretty interesting. this is the flash fast crash in august of 2015 look where the stock seemed to have stopped

so, yes, there is no doubt that trump's comments, i think, did a lot of damage and, you know, brennann interesting point when he said, you know, our foreign allies and what he's referring to is not just our political allies, but our intelligence relationships with allied intelligence services look at how he's behaving with putin and say, geez, what's going on here? can the united states be trusted? and that is, indeed, a perilous thing. the other perilous thing leaving the impression with vladimir putin that he can control trump using his ego and manipulative skills that he learned as an intelligence officer. i think clapper and brennan hit the nail on the head in their description of the situation that we have now between the president and russian president putin. >> so,ed amirable to the point that john brennan said he believes that president trump can be played by foreign leaders. his willingness to accept the word of vladimir putin shows he can be played. is that too strong of a statement? >> not at all. not at all. people who are the leaders know that he can be flattered and wowe

brennan, clapper and comey, saying they are no more than political hacks. he went a step further and said that the democrats by continuing to bring this up are actually making it harder for diplomacy and people may die as a result of it. let me read to you exactly what the president told reporters aboard air force one. quote, and this artificial democratic hit job gets in the way. it gets in the way. and that's a shame because people will die because of it. and it's a pure hit job. and it's artificially induced. and i think it's a shame that something like that can destroy a very important potential relationship between two countries that are very important countries. russia could really help us. he said that he believes vladimir putin is very insulted by this, that he's trying to build a better relationship with vladimir putin so that they work -- can work together on things like north korea and he had criticism for hillary clinton saying she was in way over her head when she tried to deal with this and former president obama simply did not have the right

so you look at it, i mean, you have brennan, you have clapper and you have comey. comey is proven now to be a liar and he is proven now to be a leaker. so you look at that and you have president putin very strongly, vehemently says he had nothing to do with them. what's your reaction, senator, when you hear that kind of talk from the president of the united states about these three leaders of the law enforcement and intelligence community? former leaders. >> wolf, this was veterans day weekend and it was striking to me to hear our president on foreign soil taking the word of a former kgb colonel vladimir putin, the leader of a country that really does not share our interests. it's one of our major adversaries around the world. so publicly disrespecting a veteran, former general clapper, former director of national intelligence, who has dedicated his entire adult life to serving our nation. to say nothing of jim comey, former fbi director, i thought this was uncalled for, unprecedented and something that puts our national security at risk. i understand the president

margaret brennan has more. >> because this is a sad morning here at "today" and nbc news. >> reportersponse came just 15 minutes after nbc's stunning announcement. wow, mr. trump tweeted. matt lauer was just fired from nbc for inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace. what the president didn't mention was that more than a dozen women have accused him of sex yule misconduct. last october in the final weeks of the presidential campaign summerer is voros said she had been repeatedly harassed by him in 2007. she was a contestant on his show "apprentice." >> earlier this fall attorneys served mr. trump a subpoena to preserve all documents. that he subjected any woman to unwanted sexual touching or sexually inappropriate behavior. the president's lawyers fought the request. throughout the campaign then candidate trump dismissed the allegations. >> the events never happened. never. all of these liars will be sued after the election is over. >> reporter: but mr. trump has not followed through on that threat. one of his accusers told us she never believed he would sue. >> is it the offic

john brennan's comments follow up on that. >> bill: we'll see what we get from that. finally, we know the president will make a statement on wednesday at the white house. this is going to put a bow on this entire trip from overseas. what would you likely hear or what should he say on wednesday back at the white house? >> i think what the president will emphasize is the first part of the trip. the idea that he really strengthed bilateral security and multi-lateral security relationships with these other countries. to him i think that was the most important thing to come out of this trip because again, a lot of the first half of this trip was designed with an audience of one in mind. that person being kim jong-un in pyongyang. i think from the president's perspective that was the largest success of this trip. >> bill: gillian turner instant analysis in d.c. more coming up during the week. thank you so much. >> sandra: a busy week for republicans on capitol hill. the house expected to vote on its tax bill later this week. the senate finance committee will mark up its own

brennan, mr. clapper. that the talk of political hacks? >> no.s something who loves his country who is trying to answer somebody who is a peril to. listen, this is absurd. this work was done by the professionals there. there is no credible argument on the other side of it. i think donald trump may be the last person in america who seems to have a real tough time getting it through his head that the russians indeed tried to influence our election in 2016, and they as far as trump is concerned may never pay a price for it. >> ben, we've been down this road before. >> clapper and brennan have a right to their opinion, but they also have a right to be criticized. it's very clear that both these individuals have an extreme and probably the most disdain for donald trump of any political individual in this country. because it -- >> they're not pundits. they're former u.s. intelligence chiefs. >> and now they currently are pundits. let's be clear. they're not in the intelligence community anymore. they are being paid for their opinion as a pundit now. an

both brennan and clapper had a chance to respond to the president right here on cnn.'s listen. >> putin is committed to undermining our system, our democracy, and our whole process. and to try to paint it in any other way is, i think, astounding and, in fact, poses a peril to this country. the likelihood that the russians are going to pursue like interests with us is slim to none. i think it's very naive and, again, perilous to this country to make an assumption that russia is going to behave with the best interest of the world or certainly the united states in mind. they're not. >> i think he's giving putin a pass, and i think it demonstrates to mr. putin that donald trump can be played by foreign leaders who are going to appeal to his ego and to try to play upon his insecurities, which is very, very worrisome from a national security standpoint. >> i think there are a couple specific charges there and i %-p president's words about vladimir putin pose a peril to the country. do you agree and if so, how? >> i think it does, mainly because what he and brennan had reite
