if you were donald trump white house chief of staff right now, what advice would you give him? what should he do going forward? >> i think the president of the united states has to focus first and foremost on being president of the united states. i realize that this investigation is going on. i realize that from a personal view, it probably bothers the hell out of him. i understand that. but at the same time, it's part of the process in our country to investigate what happened here. we know as the result of 17 agencies, that russia try to undermine our election process. that's a serious attack on our country by an adversary. so we ought to allow the process to proceed that looks at what happened to make sure it doesn't happen again. at the same time, the president frankly needs to focus on the economy. on infrastructure. on improving the ability of all americans in order to succeed our country. that's what presidents need to focus on. if he spends his time tweeting about the investigation or trying to tweet about undermining the fbi. very frankly, he will hurt his presidency. >

allegations of the mental and physical abuse are very serious and i think the white house has botched the response. largely because donald trump is not in step with this white house. there is also the national security piece of this that is not insignificant. people look at staff secretaries and think a junior underling of he was literally the ones giving the papers to donald trump. the reason john kelly relied on him so much is because john kelly was there to limit what went to donald trump. that's what rob porter did. so this is a person handling, i assume, top secret documents, as well as lots of other information. john kelly knew that the security clearance was held up. he is either the least curious person this history not to look into that, given had a rob porter's job was, order didn't want to know the answer. >> the great concern was that an individual with that back ground can be stoub blackmail. >> absolutely. that's why the fbi makes its findings clear. it doesn't adjudicate them. that's up to the white house. think about it. we wouldn't know about any of this if wasn't for the daily mail. wasn't like this had come

most recent "new york times" best seller is about white house chiefs of staff, you know what happened here, john kelly obviously prevailed and donald trump declined to overrule him. >> look, this is the most dysfunctional white house in modern history becoming more dysfunctional by the day, clearly. and the larger issue here with kushner is that this is a white house that's not just inept at governing, and i mean domestic and in foreign policy, this is a white house that was fundamentally unserious about governing. it's one thing to have somebody in charge of middle east peace with no obvious qualifications and some would say entanglements that are disqualifying but then to have that person without a security clearance unable to look at the information he needs is just laughable. and another example of how this white house is completely broken, domestically and in foreign policy. >> elizabeth, people think of the middle east talk as somewhat old, but very recently as last week, here's donald trump on the issue of jared. >> jared is truly outstanding, he's working on peace in the middle east. jared kushner is right in the middle of that a

yes, he has no real political experience yet he has been at donald trump's side in the white house everd, and he was a majorfigure during the since he was elected, and he was a major figure during the president's election campaign. he has had a key role in foreign policy, especially looking at the middle east and relations with mexico, and up until now, he has had access to those top—secret documents, including the president's daily briefing. we now know that that., and officials seem to be playing this down, actually saying it won't affect his ability to do hisjob. saying it won't affect his ability to do his job. there are still 130 others in the administration who have not got their clearances, including ivanka trump? yes, that was the number we had in november and they are now saying it is in the dozens, and the official spokesperson says it's not uncommon for these security clearances, these background checks, to take so long, but clearly jarod kushner is the most high profile of all of these individuals and the fact he is part of the family as well adds to the intrigue, as far as

trump inner circle. are the white house staff getting more and more worried about that or is this just donald trump freaking out about it alone? >> it may just be donald trump freaking out about it alone but his staff has to be freaking out about his freak out, right? because everything he tweets can be used as evidence against him. mueller probably is going to take a big interest in what he says especially as it relates to wanting the fbi to essentially end the russia investigation so that it can spend more time to concussion on, like the shooting in parkland which happened which is nonsensical. the big thing we have to focus on is mueller issued this indictment on friday to kind of lay the legal ground work for the fact that this russian interference was, in fact, a crime. a crime occurred, and the fact that he did not implicate any americans in that crime yet does not mean that he won't in the future. but it was really important for him to lay this legal ground work so that when he does come around to indicting americans there's a precedent already in place for fact that this was a crime that happened. >
