george conway, who happens to be kellyanne conway's husband, he reacted to mr. trump's tweets by noting how difficult the tweets make the job for the administration's lawyer, the officer of solicitor general, or osg to defend the travel ban before the supreme court or scotus. conway tweeted these tweets may make some people feel better, but they certainly won't help the solicitor general get five votes in the supreme court which is what actually matters. sad. this george conway tweet is significant. it's a direct criticism of the president from a close ally. george conway is saying tweeting might make you feel better, mr. president, but it is hurting your agenda, and it's frankly just the latest example we've witnessed of people who care about president trump trying to get through to him to start acting more rational and restrained. now, why do it the people around president trump have such a difficult time getting through to him, to cease what they themselves on background describe as self-destructive habits. one thing is clear. whatever his team has tried so h

i am not one of them but i think george conway is.urbed by the way in the way he which is he is trying to defend and promote them. it's not just democrats. and all that's often the line. it is people who want this to be implement it, who are think i'm wait a second, you are making this much harder for yourselves. i think the trouble administration should listen to this. >> martha: karl, real quick. >> the president wanted extreme vetting procedures. conway is extraneous by the president ought to focus on getting those extreme vetting procedures in place, described to the affected countries, and imposing them. he doesn't need to get the approval of the supreme court in order to do that. i am shocked that following january 27th, they didn't continue to proceed along the line. they have the authority to do the extreme vetting. the only question has been, does he have the authority to institute a ban and apt muslims? these tweets haven't done his cause any good. >> martha: great to see you guys. breaking tonight, a shocking new leak from

for him to criticize the president like this is amazing. >> not only is george conway a well respected own right and under consideration for some top administration posts but his wife, kellyanne conway, is a top adviser to the president. many people looking at tweets interpreted this as a message from her as well to the president. now he tweeted later that you know, he was simply saying as a supporter of the president what he thought anyone with the president's best interest at heart would say, is that the president is undermining his own objectives, undermining the administration's objectives making it harder for his justice department to defend his executive order before the supreme court and really the question i think many of us are asking is why isn't trump getting advice from in-house counsel, and if he is getting the advice, why isn't he taking it? >> he doesn't listen. i think people try and give him advice and he doesn't listen. this morning, sebastian gorka was asked about the tweet and he dismissed it as social media. i would say this is not just social media. this is a pres

you showed what george conway tweeted there and we'll get further tweets from him in just a minute.here's no concern that it could make the case before the supreme court more difficult. listen to this exchange that i had with sarah huckabee sanders earlier today. >> on the president's tweets regarding the travel ban, kellyanne conway's husband pointed out that such tweets are not helpful when it comes to the solicitor general's ability to make an effective argument for the supreme court. is the president concerned that he may be tainting the waters of the legal system by issuing suc. the president is very focused on exactly what that order spells out. that's protecting americans, protecting national security. he has every constitutional authority to do that through that executive order. he maintains that. that position hasn't changed. >> however, george conway is still concerned about the potential legal impact in a series of tweets just a few minutes ago tweeting out "just to be clear and in response to inquiries, i still very strongly support potus, his administration, policies, t

so george conway is exactly right. he is doing on the outside what people on the inside should be doing. they have to all go to donald trump. we've been saying this for some time and they're not going to do it. but the people around him need to go to him and demand that he stop this, or there's going to be mass resignation, and that includes members of his family. this is destructive. he's been destructive. mark halperin, yesterday we saw it play out in realtime where he talked to the camera, having a little fun, talking about the president, watching the show. he tweets a couple minutes later. and then we respond to that, and he tweets a little later. as the "wall street journal" said, he was responding to segments on "morning joe" about his executive order, and the "wall street journal" rightly and all of us rightly are stunned by this sort of behavior. and, as they conclude, if the president continues this, the only people that will be working with him in the white house are family members and people who work for bre

i think george conway is right.ministration would have been better off had the president not made these tweets. we're having this disagreement about whether the tweets are really bad for the administration's case or only a little bit bad. i tend to think they're only a little bit bad. but it's true that it would have been better off for administration if the president had never done it. >> jeff, laura, professor, appreciate it. thank you all. >>> coming up, we go to london in the latest of the terror investigation. two of the three killers have been identified. the cities mourn the seven dead. and prays for the 48 wounded. ng. and before that? you mean after that? no, i'm talking before that. do you have things you want to do before you retire? i'd really like to run with the bulls. wow. hope you're fast. i am. get a portfolio that works for you now and as your needs change with investment management services. be the you who doesn't cover your moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. be the you who shows up in that dres

george conway going to so far as to use some of the president's vernacular. this is a headache for the white house. it seems like whenever the president tweets it's a headache for the white house and it's going to be one yet again in about 20 minutes from now. >> that tweet from george conway pretty surprising given the fact his wife works for the president and he was under consideration to become the solicitor general over at the justice department. pretty surprising that he goes ahead and criticizes the president like that. the white house has asked the u.s. supreme court to rule on this revised second version of the travel ban. does the president's tweeting about it this morning jeopardize a white house case? well, litigating this case via twitter complicates the president's legal defense on two different fronts, wolf. first is from a substantive standpoint. lawyers at the justice department having working hard, bending over backwards to draw a distinction between trump statements preand post presidency because the pre-presidency statements talk about musl

george conway was somebody who was kred tr a nomination to be a senior position. he withdrew, but he tweeted this. these tweets may make some people feel better, but they certainlien won't help the general get five votes in the supreme court, which is what actually matters. sad. i wonder if he ran this tweet by kellyanne conway, who is part of the administration before he sent it out. >> that would be interesting. what george conway is hitting on is the criticism tr many people who support donald trump, which is he does everything with his heart and nothing with his head. donald trump knows the ninth circuit court of appeals used some of the language he's used on twitter and in rallies against him as he tries to say the travel ban has nothing to do with muslims. he knows that words have consequences. i don't want to be too dismissive, but you have to say this. you do not get to have your cake and eat it in politics. either donald trump's twitter feed is the sort of most important way that his supporters can hear from him ask he cherishes it and never get rid of it

these tweets may make some people feel better, george conway tweeted, but they certainly won't help the solicitor general get five votes in the supreme court which is what actually matters. sad. other aides say it's another example of the media taking the president's tweets too literally. >> it's not social media. it's his words, his thoughts. >> it's not policy. not an executive order. it's social media. please understand the difference. >> reporter: now sarah sanders told reporters that her presence should not indicate her superior white house press secretary sean spicer is in any kind of trouble in his role saying spicer is taking ain more duties now that the white house is losing its communications director and she will be filling in at the podium when needed. >> jim acosta at the white house with the very latest, thank you. >>> also breaking this hour, the white house says president trump will not invoke executive privilege to try to block fired fbi director james comey from testifying before congress. our justice correspondent jessica snider is working the story for us. as you kno

"these tweets may make some people feel better, but they certainly won't help the osg get five votes at the court, which is what actually matters, sad." he later said "i fully support the president's agenda and i support my wife," but it is incredibly telling, is it not, when that's coupled with senators like john cornyn, jackie, basically saying your tweets are getting in the way, mr. president, of our agenda? >> absolutely. when you go up on the hill, it is not uncommon when you talk to a lawmaker and ask him about something he tweeted for them to say i don't want to talk about the president's tweets anymore! and that's tough, because they're going to have to until he stops. but absolutely, it's derailing their agenda, it's derailing the president's agenda, and we've heard all these staffers now, instead of saying they speak for themselves, they're saying, ignore it entirely. well, we're not going to because it is a window into what the president thinks, and he is to george conway's

and a lot of it is twitter. >> had what do you make of george conway's tweet? id a sit-down interview with kellyanne conway. >> let me just give you a couple things on this. first of all, he's not somebody who enjoys the spotlight. when i interviewed kellyanne conway, he want theed nothing to do with the spotlight. i went back and looked at his twitter feed. e he has not sent a tweet since 2015 and that was about football. i think it was a year and a half ago, that just goes to show you how passionate he is about this. not only sent a tweet, pu multiple tweets. he's a supporter of the president, but he's also a legal expert, especially on something like this. you could just see his frustration with the president and support for people in the justice department who are trying to make this case. the fact that he sent these tweets speaks volumes and speaks to what i was saying about the frustration among people who really like the president and want his policies to succeed, that he's undermining them with his tweets. >> when i saw that tweet, i thought, oh boy, i w

maybe george conway, kellyanne conway's husband is right, that these tweets go so directly to the intentionalityy does he say it's a ban, but he says he wants the original ban, that to common sense and courts have very clear intention of blocking muslims, giving carve outs for other religions. could he have compromised the case? >> i certainly believe these are president trump's words and we should take them seriously as we take any statement seriously. i don't think that this statement was so devastating to the case in the supreme court. the real issue in the supreme court is whether the administration engaged in religious discrimination against musli muslims. if he said this is a muslim ban, that would be a bigger problem. a travel ban is a much more generic term. even though the white house objected to that term, it's not necessarily unconstitutional. the fact he says it's a travel ban i don't think hurts his case that much. >> maggie, let's talk about another story you have broken for "the new york times," that is no one is immune from the fickle finger of president trump, including jeff ses

kellyanne conway's husband george, who last week turned down a position in the doj's civil section, took issue with the tweets, writing "these tweets may make some people feel better but they certainly want to help the office of the solicitor general get five votes in the supreme court. which is what actually matters. sad." the white house seemed unconcerned that the president could jeopardize the court case. >> not at all. the president is very focused on exactly what the order spells out, and that is protecting americans, protecting national security, and he has every constitutional authority to do that. stick with the president's tweets were in response to the weekend attacks in london. his point that america needs to take stronger measures to defend against terror. >> we renew our resolve strongly than ever before to protect the united states and its allies from a vial enemy that has waged war on innocent life that's gone on too long. this bloodshed must end. this bloodshed will end. >> president trump ignited a firestorm of criticism when he took aim at the statement from london's m
