here to weigh in on this, the other of north korea takes on the world, gordon chang.for getting up early today and this is a big moment we have seen in china, you have kim jong un, when he took power, leaving the country for the first time in the pending meeting with donald from coming up, shoring up his own alliance. >> that is part of it. kim jong un needs allies. and un security council, trump administration sanctions, needs sanctions release, and the other thing, and the chinese ruler once to show still in charge, donald from relegated him to the sidelines. and cutting the chinese out and cutting the chinese out is a good thing and he wants to insert himself into the process. it is not good and the reason is the united states can muscle north korea. we can push them around but if they got china at their back it is more difficult. during the 6 party talks which started in august 2003 china was generally a malign influence, in the international community, more than pressuring the north koreans and during that process china was supplying them with components, equipme

gordon chang author of "nuclear showdown" north korea takes on the world. do we think it happens?hink it happens. kim jong-un part, it makes sense. they have always wanted a sitdown with the american president because it elevates kim and legitimizes him on on the world stage. that by itself is a really important win. from our perspective, we keep south korea on side. that's critical. because for a number of reasons. so from trump's point of view, it also makes sense to sit down. i think it happens. it may not happen by the end of may which is what trump signaled. >> why no word from the north? they may not have been expect to go hear him jump at the offer. >> one of them is the north koreans wanted to drive a wedge between seoul and washington. if they can intimidate south korea into submission, that's the long-term goal of the kim gentlemen regime. i'm going to cause problems between moon jae-in and donald trump. i don't think he thought about this on thursday. but he said, yeah i'll do this because president moon wants me to. therefore, it keeps the alliance strong. >> why do yo

let's bring in gordon chang, author of "nuclear showdown" and john busse, also a fox news contributor this article posted by the "wall street journal" saying that during the meeting, at the dinner with the south korean diplomat and kim jong-un, one, he showed up surprisingly with his sister and wife, two, there was plenty of alcohol flowing and that he was joking a lot, in fact making jokes about himself. it seems like there's been a drastic change in this man in just a very short time, john. >> or maybe no change and this is the way he is and we're finally actually seeing it. this is all through the prism of the south koreans who met with him at this dinner. what that means, who knows. the announcement by the white house that they are willing to sit down and talk, the glass half full assessment of this is that, look, nothing else has worked. let's try talking. nothing else has worked for decades. and it's a fairly compelling argument. the glass half empty argument here is that kim does get the stature of at least even talking with the president -- the possibility of talking with the

gordon chang, a columnist for the daily beast and has written extensively on trade and china's economygood to see you both. "the wall street journal" editorial board wrote about these new tariffs, calling them trump's biggest policy blunder and saying in part now this tax increase will punish american workers, invite retaliation that will harm u.s. exports, divide his political coalition at home, anger allies abroad and undermine his tax and regulatory reform. that's a lot. how do you see it? >> other than that, it's a good policy. as you know, i worked for the editorial board at the journal for ten years, so i'm certainly very much in agreement with that editorial. i think it is very problematic policy. i think it is going to end up costing america more jobs than it saves. look, i do think donald trump's heart is in the right place here, fredricka. he does care about these steelworkers. he does care about american aluminum workers -- >> but you just said if it's not good, then how is, you know, that good at the heart? >> well, look, this is one of those issues that bernie sanders and

let's bring in gordon chang. with me here in washington is harry. gordon, let's start with you. read this today. i almost fell out of my chair. armored car procession going from north korea to china.ng are we all being pumped here? what's going on? >> there is no confirmation that kim jung un is in bay chick, but i believe he is. he's trying to pull the string on the north koreans. the first leader he wanted to meet was south korea and then president trump. the optics are bad. kim jung un is a vessel. china does control north korea. really, right now, what we are seeing is the chinese telling north koreans, we got to do what we, the chinese, say. >> i'm going to be president for life, you come to me. this is a wild story. we are still wondering if this meeting with president trump will really happen. everybody freaked out when that was announced. this could be significant because it might involve the u.s. putting pressure on china tong help either smooth this ou, pave the way perhaps to a meeting, what are your thoughts? >> i think it's good the chinese have a role to play. ther

to nuclear showdown author, gordon chang and "usa today" eliza collins. start with you.ays coming out of left field. in this particular case he caught a lot of folks flat-footed. this is a heck of a deal, renegotiated very quickly and lot of concessions most of them favoring america. is he pushing his luck here? >> i wouldn't be surprised if members of his administration were caught off-guard. he didn't give many details which gives him wiggle room. this deal is pro-american. they had been negotiating a long time but after the president announced the steel and aluminum tariffs, that sort of heating things up. the administration touting this deal as win. really interesting he is suddenly holding that over, over unrelated of course it is all related, negotiations between south korea and north korea later on in april, which, i guess trump wants to make sure that they're following what here in america would like them to follow. charles: here is the thing though, gordon. i read an article you put out. i was pretty impressed in a sense many everyone was crying, throwing up the

and with us is showdown gordon chang and can we end the fiction that trump is too weak to deal with russia david, the answer is absolutely yes. the president trump is viewing the world as it is and being forthright with the american people and telling what we're facing as a nation and when you look at it, russia, north korea or iran he's having an open and honest dialog and conversation so the american people can appreciate the threat and know what may be expected of them in the months or years to come to confront them. david: and commander, you think of all of what's happened every the past year in president trump's dealing with russia. you have the expulsions most recently and next week, by the way, he's going to be meeting with the leaders of the baltic countries, lithuania, latvia, astona and we've been building up arms shipments to the ukrainian government to prevent more russian incursions into the ukraine. the firing of the tomahawk missiles of the russian allies in syria and the buildup of oil in this country which, of course, makes their oil cheaper. >> if nothing else, president

gordon, who was a foreign policy associate of the campaign telling her that he was going to work with candidate trump to change the verbiage about ukraine. now j.d. gordon tells fox that it's recycled garbage from nearly two years ago that came today with a fake news media. character assassination by anonymous sources and guilt by insinuation. and you can quote me on that. we just did. >> shepard: today, we got an update on president trump's a border wall proposal from u.s. customs and border protection. the acting deputy commissioner talking about 100 miles of projects for this year. he admitted it's not all wall and is not all new at all. he also could not confirm this tweet from the president a couple of days ago. president trump noting the start of his wall, the pictures are not the start of his wall at all. they are a project that was started back in 2009. not new. not the wall, an old project. but officials say the construction is new. here's the acting deputy commissioner when a reporter asked about the president's tweet. >> i'm not sure which way you're talking about, what was in the media that i saw t

putin, and the person who had been talked about as being involved in making that change was a campaign adviser named jd gordonad relationships with george papadopoulos, tied directly to russia by the job that he played in the campaign. gordon in charge of to dealing with the foreign policy adviser's team. that nexus at that moment in the republican convention, given what we now know, that it overlapped. at the time there was a lot of attention drawn to it. why are they making this change? this is a weird relationship. now it takes on a different light. >> yesterday you had a tweet that i retweeted, caught me eye, talking about the trump-russia connections. you said this was the least complicated maze. why is it the least complicated maze, and why do you think it's toes connect donald trump to all of this directly? >> that's the whole point. if you were trying to find a path from putin to trump, there's at least six different paths you can take before the election ended. after, there are a bunch of different paths with michael flynn and so forth. the infamous trump tower meeting, i'm pulling rick perry. so man

[ laughter ] >> reporter: rulings from judge stephen o'neal on three key issues may determine whether cosby is still laughing when his trial begins next month. prosecutors want the judge to allow them to put an additional 19 accusers on the witness stand to establish for juror that is cos bow had a half century long pattern of be friending, drugging and sexually assaulting younger women. the defense argued those extra witnesses are simply an effort to bolster a weak case with allegations that are too old and too dissimilar to be value at this retrial in the original you'll recall the judge allowed only one extra accuser of the 13 requested by the prosecution. cosby is charged with drugging and groping former temple university athletic department employee andrea constand sign side his chelt

gordon corera. but first, live to washington and our north america editor, jon sopel. a notable changeu could argue that theresa may has been more successful than the us intelligence services because she has convinced donald trump that the russians have been up to no good and for the past 15 months, donald trump has been very wary, almost openin trump has been very wary, almost open in refusing to accept that. what was striking was the statement issued last night by the white house press secretary, full square behind theresa may and the need to expel the diplomats and the belief that russia was behind it. then the most unlikely thing this morning, a joint letter signed by trump, the leader of france and germany and britain. and one other thing as well, america has announced that it is imposing its own sanctions on 19 individuals and private entities. not connected directly with the salisbury attack, but with the hacking of the us election in 2016 and russian involvement in that. i think that has come today because the americans wa nt to has come today because the americans want to send

here's what jeffrey gordon, a professor at columbia law school had to say about that one-word change. this apparently minor change is likely to produce significant degradation of financial stability, especially over the long run. the change would expose the fed to litigation challenges to its enhanced standards. in particular, where they are already adequately tailored. the statute thus empowers the largest firms which pose the biggest risks to bargain with the fed for laxer standards with the threat of a well resourced litigation challenge in the backgrounds. over time this bargain for taxty will reduce a race to the bottom dynamic that will dramatically increase the chance of another financial crisis. professor at columbia law school, professor gordon says that will dramatically increase the chance of another financial crisis. now, if you think the one-word change from "may" to "shall" won't change much, consider this. opponents to the bill had been pointing out this problem loudly and publicly, but the bill's sponsors won't change it. won't change that one word. why? because the gi

stance will change now that we have a new foreign policy hawk and the administration coming in like mock her bio -- like mike pompeo. gordondid not hear the first part of what you said but essentially what they are concerned by the positions of taken.n -- pompeo, has there is a handful of months before north korea can affect the us with a ballistic missile, and he said we cannot allow that to occur. you get the inevitable conclusion that these guys want to strike north korea and will do so in the not-too-distant future. i am not inside their minds and i don't know how serious president trump will be, but nonetheless if you are chinese or a north korean you have got to worry that they indeed mean what they say. walton does have a track record. thank you so much for joining us. he was coming to us from toronto. and interview with nba commissioner adam silver and we'll talk about team valuations and the fight to legalized sports betting, and more. this is bloomberg. ♪ david: this is "bloomberg markets: balance of power". shery: it's get a quick check of major averages. up a tense of 1%, and we see and afternoon sessions some
