donald trump in my book. in 1982 donald trump -- donald trump is not a palm beach kind of guy. this is a kind of staid, kind of traditional place. even more so in 1982 when donald trump came down here the first time. he stays at the breakers hotel. he's a miami beach kind of guy. he went there all when he was growing up. he stayed at the breakers, it's raining, so he gets a limo, has a limo drive him around the town, and he says what's for sale? and the driver says or, well, mar-a-lago's for sale. now, if donald trump was part of the eastern establishment, he would know what mar-a-lago was. it was built in the '20 by marjorie meriwether post. 85,000 square feet on 17 acres. for the years she was building it, she cornered the market on gold gild. of trump goes in and sees it, and he thinks it's just fantastic. he loves it, and he decides he has to have it. he's in his mid 30s. he doesn't have the money for a place like this, but he wants it. mrs. post, in her last years,ed had given the estate to the american government for a winter white house. that's the way she wanted it would

he would rather have donald trump be president than have a guy like bernie sanders be president right so what he's doing actually props up donald trump this is a huge gift to donald trump donald trump has been running around for two years calling the corporate media in the united states fake news and it turns out they were and so now when he actually is doing something that's corrupt and the news media calls him out for it they're going to be the boy who cried wolf and nobody's going to believe them so now donald trump has given this huge gift in his twenty twenty campaign he's now bulletproof from criticism from the mainstream media and they're still not stopping they're completely discredited there will be no reckoning and guys like we are shooting to stardom in the united states because people can't go anywhere else to get the truth. all right a german rock band ramstein has come into the firing line of the jewish community over the video for the group's new single looks at germany's past present and future but it is the part depicting the holocaust that has drawn a major backlash is being described by some as frivolous and irresponsible. the title of the deut

serves benjamin netanyahu not just to have mike pompei oh here giving the imprimatur of donald trump donald trump once more to benjamin netanyahu but also he can switch as he did in the space of a couple of hours from really castigating benny gantz over the most recent major issue that netanyahu has raised the fact that according to reports iran hacked his phone and saying that he must tell everybody what is on that phone so that prop possible future prime minister could not be compromised by whatever iran might want to blackmail him with and then he can switch to playing the statesman with the u.s. secretary of state so all of this is something that he will welcome obviously for his campaign kerry force that will be update from west to receive them thank you still ahead for you on al-jazeera international aid starts arriving in mozambique zimbabwe and malawi as communities try to dig themselves out of cyclonic devastation and accused of violating the e.u. competition rules.

donald trump literally for decades. he wrote a book about donald trump that got him sued by donald trump and tim o'brien won that lawsuit. donny, the checks. seeing this change where you have -- you go from the two signatures of allen weissleberg and donald trump jr. and suddenly no one's willing to sign these checks anymore after a special prosecutor's announced and we see one signature on the checks, donald trump. >> yeah. i think you lay it out perfectly. and i think what's interesting is that weissleberg, and we talked last time tim and i were on, about how he's going to be such a key figure. he was the guy doing everything. so it's fascinating that all of a sudden trump is signing his own checks. and one other thing about trump and checks. trump does not like to pay money. people know who work for trump in new york over the years. >> yeah. >> very hard to collect for anything. here now all of a sudden donald trump amidst his daily presidential routines is writing retainer checks to a guy who he says barely even when he was working for him was his lawyer. now he hasn't worked for him technically in months just doing

donald trump? >> i don't think it's out to get donald trump at all. i think the concern was that donald and i think that certainly preet bharara's reaction was to try to protect himself. i mean, i think that was obvious. >> yeah. >> it's even unusual when the attorney general calls the u.s. attorney. >> right. it's so huge. and that's such an interesting piece. also your view as a prosecutor, you, bharara, all those folks are known for putting people in jail. what did you think of his rather unusual call to say rikers island has gotten so bad it should be shut down. >> i think he's right. do you know what's interesting? there's one person in the trump administration who may wind up there and that is paul manafort. if donald trump pardons paul manafort and then he has to stand trial for the charges in new york, which he has just been indicted in, he will be sitting in rikers island, awaiting trial. >> it's a tough place. >> that's right. >> he was getting vip treatment, it was said, elsewhere. nick akerman, thank you for being here twice in one night. >> thank you. >> up ahead, the other

donald trump last night. we have donald trump last night. we have donald trump last night. e treasonous behaviour of other people. the democratic party do not see it like that. please still think there are questions to answer on the issue about obstruction ofjustice, so they will carry on with it. but their calculations on what will happen in 2020 have been upended by the publication this report. he hoped they would be fighting a weakened, scandal hit president. instead they have got an emboldened one. the trump allies have been talking about how the state attempted a coup over the past two yea rs. attempted a coup over the past two years. they have sated some in the fbi, many in the media and the democratic party. what you have at the moment is donald trump who is feeling vindicated and may be looking for vengeance. the next few months may not be pretty. the technology giant apple has unveiled its own tv and film subscription service as it tries to boost profits after flagging iphone sales. already signed up with commissioned programming are a—list names such as steven spie

donald trump to that new low. those followers of donald trump are lost. believing things they didn't use to believe. approving of things they didn't use to approve of. unless the impeachment process catches up with donaldowers will remain lost in trumpism until a majority of americans who have always opposed donald trump and trumpism turn out in full strength in the next election and do an intervention for trump followers that removes donald trump from office. and breaks their addiction to trumpism. that is tonight's "last word." "the 11th hour" with brian williams starts now. williams starts now. >>> tonight, the most significant move yet since democrats took over the house. we have details of the sweeping congressional investigation into the people around donald trump and seemingly all things related to trump. plus seems like we just said this, but once again the week before us could be consequential. with a lot of moving parts to watch that could determine the fate of some well-known names. >>> and we've narrowed down what you need to see from the saturday morning speech that clocked in at over two hours and left us a lot of material to choose from, some of it not suitable for children who might sti

donald trump a short time ago. donald trump a short time ago. donald trump a short time ago. prepared to take as part of the european union? your prime minister andrej babis boasted to donald trump, he said, how many migrants ami donald trump, he said, how many migrants am i taking? zero. that is mr andrej babis's politics. we distinguish between immigration and we have always advocated regular migration as part of our daily life but we don't want illegal migration. there is also migration from the south but also areas like vietnam's, eastern parts of europe, central asia and really we have 5% of the population living in my country are foreigners. we have a good track record... the eu commission has launched a legal action against all four so—called visegrad countries. we have quotas... which is why you are in dispute with the eu. it is not the way you will should approach the crisis. those that start with... they sure are. you talked about unity and solidarity in europe, you are breaking that. the debate is involved in more and more emphasis is put on tackling the route caus

trump and now we have a signed check from donald trump when he was president to reimburse michael cohen. the second big take is the wikileaks revelation. this is the first time anyone has said that donald trumpe in advance. if that's proven, that could make, depending on the specifics, could make trump a co-conspirator or what we call an aider and abetter, someone who encourages criminal activity of others. i think a lot of people looked at michael cohen's testimony as a grand testimony. but i think it gave us a sense of how much to work. look for my office in the southern district of new york to really lead the way. >> the next question, all the given entities surrounding this president under investigation, his businesses, campaign, inaugural committee, foundation, on and on, it's worth revisiting this question. given the doj policy that a sitting president can't be indicted or maybe shouldn't be indicted, is the president above the law? >> our viewers really hate this policy. i've learned that. and understandably because it puts one person above the law. now there's a catch 22. can't indict and doj william barr said his policy is also we will not release negative information about someone

either but we know we know that donald trump and john bolton don't have an objection to minute are constantly saying that the options on the table i mean donald trump donald trump told the acting f.b.i. there why can't we go toward in venezuela quote they have all the oil and they're right on our back door that doesn't worry us size the certain amount of time since then that a military option is on the table he said he said it just the other day meeting with the president of brazil i mean if you want to do it and you heard that what would you buy i would i would say that i my understanding from reporting and i think there's been some some public statements of this is well actually from elliott abrams and stuff and so forth is that they say that all options are on the table in order to dissuade. from doing something rash such as attacking the u.s. embassy which is now in the u.s. is evacuating its personnel or from doing something like arresting why go in and as we saw this week we saw the arrest of his chief of staff so i think that in it's mainly a form of public diplomacy donald trump has shown in his broader foreign policy that he does not like. you kn

donald trump individual one. donald trump, jr., is executive two. again, the reason donaldis not indicted is he's the president of the united states. that's his defense. >> listen, paul butler, i know you are all up in arms about executive number two, but right after michael cohen testified there were reports, i believe in "the washington post" where someone is saying executive two is actually a person known as jeff mcconney and not donald trump, jr. if donald trump, jr., is identified as executive number two then we are closer to donald trump, jr., being indicted. but that's not certain yet. >> let's go to really quickly pay maxine waters, the chairwoman of the financial services william. this was congresswoman waters on the all-in program on friday. take a listen. >> as you know we started sending letters to deutsch bank last year. now that i'm chairing the committee and the democrats are in charge of the house, they have said they will cooperate. deutsche bank is the bank he's been dealing with and his family have been dealing with deutsche bank. they all have loans, big

first of all, he did not indict donald trump, jr.. -- donald trump jr., jared kushner or other people. nationally -- . me president did not fire noter and the president did interfere with the robert mueller investigation. guest: that is true. we have been told by an official that there is not going to be any more indictments expected out of the molar investigation -- mueller investigation. some of that is still confidential. we only have a public version of what the mandate was. there was actually a detailed wasard -- version that released in august. with all that said, we have to remember that there is a lot of factors because as he was doing his investigation, he came across potential violations of law and they were sent to other u.s. attorneys. that is the office that brought the primary charges against the president's former attorney, cohen.l keoh that -- they are investigating other parts of the trump business. we know state prosecutors in new york are looking at the trump foundation. i would not necessarily jump to the conclusion that this is over. the mueller investigation, yes

trump than he is. that says it all, kasie. the biggest problem for the party, though, is donald trump is not a republican. donald trumpsn't care about the future of the republican party. donald trump, as one of his aides said to me, wants the next republican candidate for president to lose by 40 points because he wants to be able to prove that he did it, john mccain couldn't. >> and part of the reason i think we're talking about john mccain is because donald trump uses these opportunities, the same with the kellyanne conway and george conway, to make us not notice that he's made no progress in north korea, to make us notice he's made no progress in the china trade deals, to make us notice that he knew about the gm closing back in july of 2018 and has done nothing about it. >> or to stop talking, perhaps, about the mueller report. rick tyler, jeremy peters, thank you so much. >>> coming up, a little help from his friends. is the trump administration interfering in another country's election? andrea mitchell joins us live from jerusalem, next on "andrea mitchell reports" only on msnbc. this time, it's his turn. you have

donald trump donald trump has had conducted a hostile takeover of the republican party it once stood for global engagement and fiscal conservatism and the democratic party is being forced to swerve to the hard left that to me is dangerous for the country civil war of the twenty first century is far different than it was an eight hundred sixty one but i'm afraid that the vindictiveness and the hatred the hatred and animosity in both sides is going to make this country exceedingly difficult to govern that my fair guys our age witnessed watergate in real time and we are now living through another checks and balances civics lesson with this president and this congress and whatever mower comes up with another right eat beef is that the left monopolizes the media conservatives wax nostalgic recalling johnny carson's monologue he didn't play favorites now they be mown jimmy jimmy and cole bear ganging up on trump michael with late nights top trump tormentor stephen colbert they're winning in the ratings and because his medium is advertiser supported is this not the mark. it play speaking of course it is and i think again these have this as a polarizing effect i mean you've seen your you seen your late night shows become a much more politicized even jay leno was criticizing that isn't what it used to be because of the public because one of the polarization of politics that we're seeing in this country today which which also because of the serious divisions that include our racial and our ideological differences it has now gone into the mainstream and and this then becomes the norm the new norm and i think as a consequence it causes for the divisions that we're going to be seen from here on when michael cohen we call one recently testified before congress i got a lot in my throat when he says given my experience working for mr trump i feel that if he loses the election in twenty twenty that there will never be a peaceful transition of power and lately the president has alluded to bikers and other tough guys and police on his side harland do we laugh this off as trump bluster or is it cool we're magical it's certainly imaginable i would just say about the michael cohen hearings it was a sad day for america that they were held and the conversations that took place that did not do anybody any good and yes i have thought that if donald trump leaves office either because he is being thrown out or because he loses in twenty twenty or twenty twenty four years constitutionally mandated to two terms i could see a case where he might claim a national emergency remember lincoln disestablished hate to use corpus and eight hundred sixty two right and you could easily saying see the president saying look there's a national crisis here for all these reasons and that is not out of the question this is the first time that thought ever came to my mind or anybody else's and it's in demick of the problem that we have now become so sensitive to this animosity. that things in the past that were unimaginable it unthinkable today may be thinkable and possibly imaginable and that's very distressing and michael i got thirty seconds but in those next thirty seconds robert muller's report could drop any predictions and yeah i think. i think it's going to create even greater animosities because if it doesn't satisfy what the dems wanted you

trump, sr., donald trump, jr., and alan weisselberg. the only person explicitly named in the indictment is michael cohen. it's clear who the others are. michael cohen brought receipts including a check with donald trump jr., is far out of the woods. the other instances with regard to donald trump, jr.'s testimony before the house intelligence committee. joy, i think there is compelling evidence according to the democrats who heard his testimony that he lied. i was a prosecutor, a public corruption prosecutor for the department of justice. i could get a jury to -- if donald trump, jr., said the conversations about trump tower moscow ended in january 2016, that's a lie. if donald trump, jr., said the meeting with the russian lawyer was about adoptions, that's a lie. i don't know why mueller didn't bring that charge. joy, if you deputized me to go back to the department of justice, i could prosecute and win that case. >> wow. strong words. tim o'brien, we know certain facts are on the table. the trump tower meeting which people thought would be a lynchpin of the mueller report. we know donald jr., was at the meeting. so was paul manafort who has not been cooperative though he was supposed to be. jared k

donald trump is not that. >> what would you call donald trump? how do you see donald trump? donald trump is a person who is at times buying into and at times i think opportunistically using the fact that white supremacy is the legacy of america and it's naive of us to think that it's gone. we all carry around these sort of ideas about wealth, inequality being okay when it's so imbalanced from white people and people of color or that incarceration affecting people of color, that's just how it happened. like thinking that that's just normal america is buying into a white supremacist legacy, and we get really uncomfortable talking that, and donald trump at the base level is capitalizing on that. >> we're going to have more from my interview with derek black when we get back. why are so many young americans embracing white nationalism, and what role does social media play? that's next. many have style... few have pure grace. many have strength... few have raw power and many possess beauty but only a few can touch our souls. there are many suvs, but there's only one legend. the 2

again it's pretty remarkable that donald trump -- that donald trump of charlottesville who talked about moral equivalency between neo-nazis and anti-fascist, the donalding about how jewish money would buy the presidency. that trump republican party of kevin mccarthy. kevin mccarthy putting out a tweet before the election in 2018 basically saying it's the jews, the jew money that's going to take over and we cannot allow soros, bloomberg to buy in all caps this election. of course kevin mccarthy select three jews and george soros name. it's an old tired anti-semitic trope. let me continue. jim jordan, i ain't reading anything. i can go on all day. jim jordan talking about tom steir last week. he never done this with a gentile but replaced the "s" in steir with a dollar sign. >> you can go further back, joe, to the 2016 campaign when david duke supported president trump and president trump was asked about it and refused to distance himself from david duke and said he wasn't familiar with david duke's views. there this a repository for anti-jewish sentiment in politics today it's chiefly on the right. not only on the right. if you talk to actual neo-nazi

donald trump. the main thing is the american people and the investigators are going to have to decide whether donald trump, his family and his inner circle, all of whom were described there by michael cohen, together constitute an ongoing criminal conspiracy that might have made itself either vulnerable or willing to conspire with the russians, but even if it didn't do that, is this ongoing, tax-evading, hush money paying give one thing, which is money for the family. it could be foreign policy or it could be money that left him open to blackmail. that's the big question and that's what connects all the different investigations in new york and washington. is this a potential giant rico case? >> as a reporter and former exec, which do you think holds the most peril now after cohen, darold? >> it's still follow the money. >> i loved the description of donald. it is 100% spot on. >> fascinating to see this play out now on a national basis but also in many ways deserving for the reasons you stated. thanks to both of you. >>> up ahead, there are some bizarre moments in the cohen hearing. >>> inside moscow's project and why investigators now want to hear from don jr. to hear from don jr these great perks. i got to select my room from the floor plan... very nice... i know, i'm good at picking stuff. free wi-fi... laptop by the pool is a bold choice... and the price match guarantee. how do you know all of this? are you like some magical hilton fairy? it's just here on the hilton app. just available to the public, so... book at hilton.com and get the hilton price match guarantee. if you find a lower rate, we match it and give you 25% off that stay. why go with anybody else? we know their rates are good, we know that they're always going to take care of us. it was an instant savings and i should have changed a long time ago. we're the tenney's an

donald trump, donald trump's past, including what i think is one of the most troubling episodes in his life, and that was all the favors and business relationship he had with joseph wexelbaum, a cocaine dealer that donald favors for. >> and there have been connections between donald trump, the trump organization, and various figures associated with mob families in the construction business. >> right, exactly right. when donald was building trump tower, he was able to use non-union, illegal immigrants from poland to tear down the old because he had the mob connections he had through roy cohn. there was a concrete strike in new york while he was being built. every project in new york, the sidewalk in front of your house, all stopped, except trump tower, because of donald's mob connections. >> you've pointed out before, donald trump has been connected, as i said, to various figures in his career, but if there ever were a criminal investigation of the trump organization, do you see a road map investigators could follow, that is similar to way the southern district of new york handled the war on organized crime? >> oh, yeah, what you have to have are a series of events that show a criminal enterprise. that

trump's grades or s.a.t. scores were ever disclosed without his permission. >> the university confirmed they were threatened to keep donald trump's transcript hidden and the university of pennsylvania where donald trump transferred made no public comment and "the washington post" is reporting friends of donald trump tried to seize his high school records in 2011 right after donald trump said that he wanted president obama to quote show his records because donald trump believed that barack obama was quote a terrible student. >> the word is, according to what i've read that he was a terrible student when he went to ox dental. maybe that's right or wrong but i don't know why he doesn't release his records. >> it's against the law for schools to publicly release student's transcripts but ivy league schools like the university of pennsylvania and harvard where barack obama graduated from law school do make public records of the students who graduate with honors and then ivy league schools most students actually graduate with honors, not graduating with honors is unusual in ivy league schools. there are three levels. donald trump did not graduate with honors from the university of pennsylvania. that is pub

trump and say what's wrong with donald trump and oh, he's great, know the media is after donald trumpr. this is an example that their children are being given from their parents and you wonder how those kids are going to grow up. how will a generation grow up. we already talked about the impact that bill clinton had in '98 and '99 on middle schools and high schools across america. you and i saw that personally. and very concerned about the impact that parents who sit by and continue to raise up a man who lies every day, who besmirches people's character every day. who does basically -- he basically does the opposite of every single thing jesus talked about in the beautitudes. look them up. they are holding that man up and sending their kids out in trump uniforms for halloween out of admiration. it's a thousand questions will be asked about that in years to come. but, mike, let's stay a little more narrowly focused on john mccain. again, we don't have to talk about john mccain's extraordinary legacy. it speaks for itself. but there is no doubt that donald trump is tortured so much so t

involved that meeting who went to trump tower along with a couple of other russians and sat down with donald trump jr. and paul man a fort and this is this is now before donald trump just after he was nominated before he was elected president and they said. if your father talking to donald trump jr donald trump is elected president can you repeal the magnitsky act and could you indict bill browder and. she wasn't there just as a private citizen she was there effectively on behalf of lattimer putin in the russian government and it's remarkable from him from almost every different standpoint that that the russian government would send an emissary to talk about me in the magnitsky act is remarkable that donald trump jr. his son his son in law and his campaign manager would meet with this russian to talk so is it possible do you think in the end that if collusion is proven that it may turn out that bill browder in the magnitsky magnitsky act with powerful motivators well we know for sure that the russians were there because of the me in the magnitsky act and we know for sure that they supported donald trump because they thought he would be more favorable about these i

trump critic, he gives people like cookie monster a bad name. >> cookie monster alive. >> reporter: forget tookies, the president likes his own name in his donald trump. trump. donald trump. >> reporter: jeanne moos, >> stay on point, donald, stay on point. >> reporter: -- new york. >> have a great weekend. anderson starts now. >>> good evening. john berman here for anderson, and we begin with this breaking news. did the president just threaten to block the release of the mueller report? we don't know for sure but depending on how you read what he just wrote, he might have. a little background first. this afternoon in a letter to congress attorney general bill barr said the mueller report will be ready for release by mid-april if not sooner. that full report is nearly 400 pages excluding tables and appendic appendices. that was mid-afternoon. just minutes ago the president, the same president who over the past week has said he's for the full release of the report wrote this. robert mueller was a hero to the radical left democrats until he ruled that there was no collusion with russia, so ridiculous to even say, after more than two years since the insurance policy s

if the referendum is about donald trump, donald trump is losing the election., you have to make the challenger an unacceptable risk. you say, look, i may not be perfect, it may not be everything that you ever wanted, but this other guy, mitt romney's a vampire, john kerry's a win surfing flip-flopper. you define the challenger as somebody who's just too risky, we just can't take a chance on all the good things that we have we'll lose if we let this insane evil person take over. i would say if given what we've seen from this rnc and this administration, it will just be more vicious than usual. it will just be a matter of degree, not really tactics. >> dana: time is on their side. democrats have the big primary. all these people will have to fight it out themselves. one of the potential candidates was on one of the networks today talking about why she would not want to just be second place. watch this. >> i think you don't run for second place. my responsibility is -- >> wow. if i'm going to enter a primary, i'm going to enter a primary. >> dana: that's stacey ab

donald trump? >> donald trump made the unusual step of announcing the faa would be grounding the fa -- the max 8 and max 9. what they said, they have new evidence, satellite flight tracking data combined with evidence from the ethiopian air crash suggesting parallels to the lion air crash. >> max jets, potentially being grounded through april, depending on software fix. that is according to house lawmakers. >> is that an accurate timeline? >> we don't really know. hopefully it will be sooner than that. shery: in the last few hours the company said it was pausing deliveries of all 737 max aircraft. ramy: interestingly boeing says they will keep building but they will be watching if there is any hint of demand. youoeing has reaffirmed by may the -- email the now grounded 737 max jet. they said the software update will be deployed in the coming weeks. >> the question is whether or not the faa to priors additional -- requires additional steps. regardless you want to see the faa requiring bowing to go through some hoops to push out the software. they also have their a petition on the line. kailey: let's continue our global tour of the business stories in washington where the white house sent congress an initial 2020 budget proposal. >> president donald releasing his request with at least $8.6 billion in funding for the construction of a wall on the border. this is the so-called skinny budget, the opening salvo, and it is a request. what happens and what is in it? >> skinny budget but it landed with a thud. money -- many democratic staffers say it is death on arrival. a 5% discretionary spending cuts, $8.6 billion for the wall on the border, and no balanced what it for 15 years. they also are arguing and banking on a 3% growth model. alix: retail self -- scarlet: retail sales stabilizing, indicating consumers can help support economic growth after a weak en d to last year. >> was the growth and anomaly? >> it is about -- that figures were revised even further down. december was a much worse month than we even thought. if you accept the numbers are accurate, there will be questions raised about that. they could have been a one-off. we will have to wait and see. eight of 13 categories went up. the biggest jump for building material sin

donald trump. donald trump is not much younger than joe biden. i talked to a lot of voters, two years ago. who said they didn't care. who said age was experience, and they kind of wanted that. we saw this remarkable -- thing that happened in 2016 where an older person got elected. he had no experience at all, in government, so i'm just not sure that the age thing matters so much. it's interesting that he's fixating on that, when others are just as old as he is. or almost as old as he is. >> there's a case to be made that alexandria ocasio-cortez gets more air time on fox news. there's clearly an effort to brand her as the beating heart of the democratic party, the talk of socialism, the tower of the far left going-forward. >> president trump has starts his re-election campaign and he's running against the socialists. and the democrats are giving him way too much of an opportunity toe be three freshmen congress women. no one on the democratic primary campaign trail is pushing back on them and they're letting them take up. don't push back, they're nervous about trying to absorb the energy on the left, and seen as scary moderate centrists. if they allow aoc to dictate the terms of the party and become the identity of the party, they're going to be in real trouble next year. >> i don't know how to say this gently, because the three of us in this conversation, this is not our first rodeo. we know joe biden's history, legislative -- if you have any years on you, you think it's kind of been talked about and examined over the time. a new generation is learning joe biden's history, legislative and otherwise in washington. things like anita hill, the thomas hearings, and this is all new to them. a lot of them are on the so-called progressive left. >> it's definitely an issue, and it's an issue for everyone who's had a long history like he has. it was an issue for hillary clinton. for people who have long histories, society has changed. it is something that he's going to have to deal with. i think that his people are perfectly well aware that's going to happen. they're going to have to answer questions about how things have changed and how he's changed. >> is there a democrat in the running in that polling graphic we saw people declared? is a kamala harris with a prosecutor background? any better able to rise forward after we get the mueller report transmitted. when we get more and more into investigations to make that more of a selling point? >> perhaps, but it's early stages, and right now she's very worried about the primary. the sort of first voters of the party. and a very active base that's concerned with criminal justice issues, and their anti-prosecutor. she's starting out not wanting to talk about that. that's where a lot of the energy is that she's going to have to face some kind of litmus test on that, it would be interesting to see if she gets to be a law and order democrat once we're on the other side of these investigations, right now she's trying to talk about her experience in solving problems, not so much the cases she was involved in. >> it is true. both parties have this burden. you almost need to be a different candidate to succeed in primary politics as a republican or a democrat than you do in the general. >> i feel like that's always the case. every time, every time this happens, and there's so many people running right now in the democratic party, that's all they can do is focus on these 12 plus other people that they're running against. they'll get to donald trump eventually. but they kind of need to distinguish themselves, and a lot of them are trying to do that, some of them on the policy issues, and they're also trying to do that on -- as you said, age and experience. and also againeder diversity. there's a lot of things to look at. >> thank you for joining us on this thursday night. coming up for us. it's more than just one badly wounded navy veteran sticking up for another badly wounded navy veteran. the public request that's been made to the president when we come back. what happened to the real men of america? today's average red-blooded american man has less testosterone than his father. and his father has less testosterone than his father. before we suffer a full-on masculinity crisis, force factor is launching the man up america event. we want to send every man in america a complimentary bottle of the breakout supplement taking gnc by storm. test x180 ignite, loaded with free-testosterone-boosting manliness. get your complimenta

weisselberg has come and he seems like the lynchburg having been at the trump organization against fred donald trump, donald trump'sher. he knows where the bodies are buried. that's the expression that people keep using. he knows about every signed check. and so of course they're going to call him. but he has limited immunity. what does that mean? >> he's an obvious person to call. michael cohen invoked his name over and over again the other day. he's the financial gatekeeper. so he has immunity, limited immunity. that's when a prosecutor says i need your testimony, i can't have you invoking the fifth so we're not going to use your testimony on this limited subject to prosecute you later. so now if he's going to testify more broadly, and it seems clear that he is. he knows pretty much everything. i think one of the quotes was he knew every dime that ever left the trump org. he's going to need broader immunity or a cooperator. but the limited immunity he has right now will not carry him through. >> without the broader immunity he goes in and pleads the fifth. >> he'll take the fifth 'we can see the person sitting at

trump. >> he should thank donald trump, donald trump i was talking about him, and someone was asking abouton versus trump and i said, nixon was so much more gentlemenly. bough ever think of using the word gentlemenly in connection with richard nixon? the line you were using for the tape this day in 1973, those are things donald trump could have said as you know, and have talked about, elijah cummings and others are saying that the things that the house democrats are asking for from the trump white house, they are stonewalling. >> david corn collusion is not a legal term, there's no crime called collusion but the president loves saying no collusion. you today are saying yes collusion. >> i'm saying that what mueller -- we got caught in a trap of focusing on whether there was criminal collusion. whatever that might be, as the only standard by which to judge trump and the trump scandal. if you look at what we know already. without the mueller report, the mueller indictments, what we know is that trump while he was campaigning for president, he was including to do a business deal and he went t

thinks of this poll and what donald trump think of this poll and what republicans think of this poll when asked, who do you believe more, michael cohen or donald trump sf donaldn convicted perjurer, 50%. give us some insight into his thinking on the fact that by more than double digits americans believe michael cohen far more than they belief donald trump. >> i mean, what a sad state of affairs that number is that the american public believes someone who admitted to lying to congress more than their own president of the united states. i think that cohen felt like he went to congress and did what he needed to do. i think the fact that he brought documents with him, those suitcases this week and the documents that he showed publicly last week, i think that is why you see the big discrepancy and i think that cohen was pleased with that, but i think, you know, there are still questions about his credibility. he still had to spend 16 hours in front of the house intel committee. he spent seven hours being questioned publicly and nine and a half hours the the day before in front of the senate and i think he's exhausted. he's continuing to cooperate and in less than

donald trump has never said a racist thing. you know why? dan doesn't want, dan is afraid of donald trump and dan will not admit donald trump said racist comments the last three years, isn't that true dan? >> dan: you are a liar. >> be honest, dan, donald trump said, has he said anything raisins -- let him finish. you are a liar. speed to you have no credibility, just lying. because donald trump >> >> jesse: all right, guys, this personal attack for one second, sarah parker. we talk about the division in this country and leo, right there demonstrated some divisiveness and that was a personal attack not on policy. very personal. >> sarah: i see the democrats divided us about 50 years ago. and all of these little populations and donald trump has brought us all together, fixing everything for everyone. and they hated and totally coming unglued. as an example of trying to take advantage of an industry that has solved itself. we are more united as the grassroots community of people. and the french of the democrats and so they try to stir up anything. they are losing the black community come with a black bow and have been problems with that. >> jesse

trump organization would know. the people are michael cohen and donald trump. donald trump actually has not said frankly more recently whether he did or not. folks around him made the point. michael cohen said under oath and penalty of perjury the president did know. people trying to undercut michael cohen's credibility have to take into account that it was taking place under oath. but alisyn, it is a mistake to say and therefore this is the only possibility, this is the only thing it could be. >> very quickly, you also note in the story these checks could be part of a case made against the president when out of office. >> yes. that's a real issue here. there is a real question and some of the people around the president, not all, but some are concerned that he could have possible legal exposure with the southern district of new york that's aggressively continuing to look into the issues that have spawned from michael cohen and whether the president would have some legal jeopardy. that could impact the degree to which he would want a second term and be looking to run for re

trump campaign colluded with moscow, something that the kremlin and donald trump deny. donald trump'sdelivered his report and that attorney general will determine the appropriate next steps that we will here in a few moments from now, and washington. we do not know yet how much, if any, of this report the attorney general will decide to reveal. so a little bit of that letter, saying that it is addressed toa letter, saying that it is addressed to a huge number of very well known people who sit on the judiciary committee and it says, i write to notify you that robert mueller has concluded his investigation and the 2016 election and relates it back. in addition to this notification, special provides you with a description and explanation of insta nces, description and explanation of instances, if any, the attorney general or acting attorney general took proposed action by counsel was so took proposed action by counsel was so inappropriate and unwarranted by established practises, that it should not be pursued. there were no such instances, this letter says. so the journey to, a such inst

donald trump jr. and joyce said it very well. once these threads are established, once the connections are made, donald trump jr., in effect, lying to a congressional committee, donald trump jr., signing those reimbursement checks, donald trump jr. implicated in other criminal activity, you have the connections that are the hallmark of a conspiracy. >> you seem to have your eyes on donald trump jr. you think he lied to the committee? >> i think he lied to our committee, at least so far as we can tell right now. >>> ahead, congresswoman rashidah talib on her take of the cohen hearing and why she spoke truth to power with racism and the president and next, breaking news from "the new york times." the president of the united states lied, flat out, about overruling his own intelligence agencies to get national security clearance for his son-in-law. that story in two minutes. son-in-law that story in two minutes. >>> well, they lied again. think only specialty stores have what's new? olay has the hottest debut. new olay clay stick masks, hydrating facial mist, and brightening eye cream. only by olay. even our pets know to go because it's the easiest way to save 30% on al
