craig: i'm craig gordon in washington.nt trump is heading to wisconsin to tell his record on trade and push for his nafta replacement known as usmca, which still need to get across the finish line in congress. joining us from washington is afl-cio president richard trumka. what is the current view on usmca and the work nancy pelosi is trying to do in the house to clean up a little bit? richard: it still needs a lot of work to be done. as it is currently presented to us, it is totally unenforceable, on three different levels. we are working on that. working to clean up some of the language internally. then we are working to clean up a couple of other issues. we are constantly working at it. we are hopeful that we can ultimately get there. old enough to remember the first nafta fight, when the unions were pretty down the line against it. you seem pretty hopeful it could get through with the fixes you need on labor protection, wages, jobs, that sort of thing. has there been a sea change among your members about the positive b

craig: politics is interesting because i became interested in issues. i was leading hr for a fortune 500 company when the aca was implemented after 2010 and into 2012. i had seen what it looked like to implement the aca. inside an employer-sponsored health care plan, and i had also seen the number of people who, all of a sudden, had access to the health insurance system in this country. and so i became very passionate at that point in time about how can we make sure we fix parts of the aca? i saw the immediately too. and how can we make sure every american has access to high-quality health care? the other issue was very personal. my wife and i, we have four sons. we were married in california in 2008, right before proposition a -- proposition eight passed. in 2012, minnesota was the first state in the country to say no to a constitutional amendment that would have banned same-sex marriage in our state. i was part of that effort to stop that constitutional amendment behind the scenes. in 2013, we passed marriage equality. i had worked in the private sect

>> not necessarily, craig.ut for democrats, this is about getting this story in front of the american public, much of whom has not read the mueller report. like jake, nbc news has been told by two sources familiar with the matter that there are talks ongoing to delay the testimony by a week. and i think this just underscores howl difficult this has been for democrats to get this basic thing, which is the testimony of the man who spent two years investigating. another factor behind all of this, craig, may be that the justice department expressed redser vations about two of mueller's aides testifying in the closed session of the hearing, which had been the plan. we're not sure where that stands right now. we're not sure the justice department has considered urging those aides not to testify and democrats want that to happen because they don't want it to rest on robert mueller. he led the investigation, but had he some very sharp prosecutors under him who knew more of the details and they want to question those pe

>> craig, it's good to hear from you. we originally met here in south carolina, just a few weeks ago. i tell you what, it's just simply racist and it's actually a trend with the trump's racist attacks, as you remember, with the birther issue, with president obama. listen, it's a tactic that will not work. senator harris is committed to prosecuting the case against donald trump. and so they're afraid. i mean, they're really concerned. but look, here in south carolina we're used to dealing with segregationists and racists like strom thur man and the likes. we're prepared to take the fight to donald trump. we're confident and ready to really talk about senator harris agenda, her 3:00 a.m. agenda dealing with paying teachers more to closing the gap in income inequalities here in this country. >> zerlena, what do you make of the back and forth so far? >> this is birther 2.0. it's not a coincidence donald trump jr. would tweet this and then feign ignorance. the point being brought up is serious. it's not a surprise because kama

bellamy now on the line from london who's a market analyst there craig what do you think lies ahead for the chinese economy we're just talking about whether or not to expect a rebound later in the year whether or not this trade war is going to flare up how do you think things are going to play out based on today's economic data. well i think in many ways that's going to depend on what kind of monetary and fiscal stimulus that we see as a result of the white of the economies performed in the 1st half of the year i think it's important to note that yes while we are seeing the slowest level of growth in 27 years in china this is being part of a decline that's been happening for some time and actually the extent to which we've seen it drop from around 6 and a half to $6.00 isn't that extreme actually growth of the whole is around $6.00 so we could actually see with a little bit of stimulus towards in the 2nd half of the year we could actually see the perform a little bit better again and all of a sudden the trajectory that the cline is in to extortion it's and again it also depends on h

craig: my name is craig hall. i basically consider myself an amateur military historian. i do various impressions. this impression here today is to represent the contribution of the soviet union as an ally of the americans and the british, to helping them win world war ii. we have to give equal credit to our allies. some would say, we couldn't have done it by ourselves, but the point is -- and people ask me why do i do this impression. i think because the reason is that we need to tell the story about the eastern front. if you don't understand what happened on the eastern front, you don't understand world war ii. the soviets made a significant contribution to winning that war. now, for example, what i normally do is, on my display on the table over here, i have a national geographic magazine dated may, 1944. the first article in it has to do with the liberation of the ukraine. the point being, the significance of that is that, of course, one month later, we had d-day. and the point -- the relationship of the soviet contribution is that, as of that date, when we push -- wh

craig: it has been an interesting year.ares to the last couple of years, this is the roughest year in the last five years. volumes have been down but we have seen currency signs at the end of july. we have seen for the first time in three months the july volume numbers, in terms of freight demand, are higher than they have been for the last couple of months. we are seeing potential turns in the market and seeing signs the market might be turning around. alix: to take a look at where rates are now versus 2018 and 2017, give us perspective, and does it matter what products you are moving around, how does that work? craig: if you think about trusting, trucking is ultimately howmmodity that is based on much it costs to move the truck over a certain distance. pricing is set by the supply demand metric for the economy. what has happened is that last year there were a lot of truckers that entered the industry and that has had a drag on spot rates. we have seen that. the refrigerator market has done better than the other sectors of

>> you know, craig, i assume this is going to be a fairly strong case. i personally would take exception with the feds don't lose proposition because i think we need to be taking difficult cases not just sure things, but as i was watching u.s. attorney berman, one thing really jumped out at me during his press conference, he said very pointedly victims must be heard, and then the assistant director in charge of the fbi, bill sweeney, went on to urge additional victims to call into the hotline and then he went further and gave them a little tutorial about which buttons to push once they actually get into the phone system. craig, do you know what i saw that as, i saw that as a direct rebuke of how then u.s. attorney acosta handled the victims in this case because we came to learn that he violated the victims' rights, actually violated the law, the crime victims rights act, by keeping them in the dark and not giving them their voice, not letting them have their say as victims. so i think u.s. attorney berman was sending a pretty powerful message that, no, n

and that's part of his campaign strategy, craig. advisers to the president, white house officials, allies of the president, they all want him to do exactly what he's doing in terms of elevating this group of four freshmen congresswoman because they think like people ilhan omar and rashida tlaib, that the ideas they're spousing are too progressive for the current environment handsome of the suburban voters that david was just talking about will gravitate towards the president if it's a choice between the squoed squad a squad and his policies. whether or not that works is something you'll have to pay close attention to in the coming months. i expect that one of the reasons that his campaign is exemplarily trying to get president trump to stay away from the racially tinged comments that he's been making is because they see the other side of this argument, the ideological battle as the more successful messaging strategy. >> we'll leave it there. gaby, thank you. shermichael, thank you. mack, thank you as well. james and mr. jolly, alway
