anybody listening to this or you, erin, or me.you think there are people who kind of share what americans cherish and stand for and stick up for. and the british are one of those. >> so you know, obviously, az point out, the stark con travt in the way the president handles this as opposed to kim jong un. you write in your book about u.s. policy. and you say -- let me just -- in one memo on june 27th what darroch says and i'll compare it to what you say. he wrote, "it's unlikely that u.s. policy on iran is going to become more coherent anytime soon. this is a divided administration." that's what kim darroch said. in your new book, secretary, you write, "i couldn't accept an offer from someone like president trump. by no means do i disagree with all his policies, but there would be major differences between us on important issues like russia, the middle east, and the importance of alliances. more important, i couldn't support decisions about defense made on sudden impulse." it sounds like you feel much the same way as the british am

erin i've said them on your show. behavior like this is something that he finds absolutely appalling. and i would assume he is very happy. >> why with you worried about relationship. >> we wanted to know -- i wanted to get exactly his story because as you know in any campaign issues like this would be brought up. and especially because epstein was going to be an issue that was brought up in conservative media on fox news, on breitbart. there was lots of talk about it in conservative radio. and the president did have an association with him which was public, including already reported in the new york magazine profile, erin, that he had been upon epstein's plane. but i think the president. >> yes, that is true. >> but from what i heard from not only the president and then mr. trump but also people in his office they did not have communication at all for a long time. >> so harry i want to play what acosta said today when asked if he would make the same agreement today. as gloria said, no apology. that might have been wha

but i -- please continue. >> i have to look at that in two ways, erin. one way is that this is not the bob mueller i remember. that was years ago. he hasn't been out there doing a lot of q and a with congress recently. we saw him recently several weeks ago gichg a prepared statement at the department of justice. reading from a prepared statement is different than being in front of the committee answering questions, trag to have immediate recall of things that you have worked on. i did not expect to see that side of bob mueller today. that's a different man than i used to brief. however this was the bob mueller that we expected in terms of what he did with the substance. he promised us he was going to stay within the report as much as possible. he said i don't know to testify read the report everything is in the report. if i testify it will be the report. this is my testimony. and he generally stuck to that. so while his delivery was halting and while he had problems sometimes getting the right word to characterize what he said. >> didn't have facility wi

we very erin gibbs, gibbs financial management chief financial officer. what do you make of sell off? what does the tell you might be going on with the economy down the road we see a global slowdown? >> this makes sense, the runup in the chart, the run-up in june was so high, largely it was a reaction to iran tensions. it really wasn't increased demand. we had a big bankruptcy just last week. so, this is actually making sense. certainly more dramatic than we expected but overall the outlook for oil specifically isn't so great. at least for most of the stocks. the gas, the increase in gas prices, helping them offset and keep the profit as little higher. melissa: veronica, what i love about this, remember back in the day, if there was any turmoil in the middle east, now there is a ton of it, we would be worried about markets, worried about oil prices, worried about how it is affecting our economy. while we're concerned about violence obviously and tensions, we don't have the pile-on with the economy as well because we're more fuel independent, what do you t
