when george w. bush was elected president in 2000, he appointed as his ambassador to france a man who does not speak french. but who had given him a lot of money. his name is howard leach. howard leach has also just been named a presidential trustee of the trump victory fund of the republican national committee. this is not a long list but this is an amazing list. you want one more? here is donald trump speaking in south carolina in february. >> i'm the only politician that's not getting money. all these guys like cruz is getting tremendous amounts of money from oil and all these different -- jeb bush, woody johnson from johnson & johnson is his campaign finance chairman. woody will totally control what happens. you think the drug industry is going to be hurt by jeb bush when woody johnson is the head of his committee raising funds for him? >> donald trump in february trashing a man named woody johnson for his leading role raising money for jeb bush's presidential campaign. mr. trump saying publicly

george w.ss nicolle wallace, legendary. i do say legendary. >> epic. >> veteran means old. legendary means you're a legend. you're still playing, in the game, a legend. mike barnicle. this is co-host of with all do respect showing no respect. 6:00 a.m. on msnbc, john heilemann and former advertising guru branding and marketing expert donald deutsche. >> he's legendary, too. >> you've got legendary and former something. i'm former something. >> did you work in the ad business. >> i did it well. >> it worked out. >> this is a great crew. it could be an excellent morning or one of those mornings -- >> where we have to issue an apology by 9:00 a.m. >> we'll walk that line. set up this day in washington. pivotal for leaders of the republican party. getting ready to meet with donald trump to hammer out differences you saw and forge a path ahead. we'll give you live looks at action in washington, d.c., all morning. >> wow. >> isn't that exciting? a live look in. official agenda gets under way at 9:00

we had never seen a photo of george w.irst address to the nation, which he gave from that elementary school. we'll move on here to 10:00 a.m. you'll remember the secret service wanting to the president back in the air, wanting him to be on air force one. there he is watching the video of the actual planes hitting those towers. most of those people are used to that michael moore video. there's the first look of the president watching that attack. we move on now to barksdale air force base in louisiana. they kept moving the president. there he is with his chief of staff, andrew card. it was shortly after this photo was taken, steve, where they decided to dump the press corps and leave them in louisiana for security reasons. the next one will be in the air on the way to nebraska. this is going to be an iconic photo. this is lieutenant colonel cindy wright, a member of the white house military office which is in charge of taking care of the president really as he travels around the country. we move on to 8:30 p.m. that night,

george w. bush. every president walks into office with this arrogance thinking i'm the smartest guy that's ever been here and the system always grinds him down. can you explain how james madison and hamilton were pretty smart guys and nobody is going to walk into washington, d.c., and take over. >> yeah, look. you're absolutely right, joe. madison divided the power and nobody can do everything they want to. and every president is sobered by the reality. all kinds of impediments. in today's politics when people are legitimately unhappy, the average person is about $3,000 or $4,000 a year worse off today than when president obama came to office, you can understand the anxiety and the desire for a kind of quick turn around. what i think and the reason i don't have any trouble supporting donald trump is i don't want four more years justice like the last eight. n i don't want hillary clinton -- >> but isn't hillary clinton somebody who has played the long game? isn't she should be that like trent would co

george w. bush were three presidents i worked for. i was a witness to how hard it is to be president of the united states and the tough decisions that have to be made. i want him to demonstrate a little sympathy, find some empathy and have the courage to be a leader that requires you to be the leader of all the people all the time without trying to be the most popular leader all the time. >> you are very familiar with george w. bush. does donald trump need to do that? could he do that? would it make a difference if he did that? >> there is room to run away from george w. bush because george w. bush still remains -- republicans are very divided about his candidacy. and -- his presidency. and one thing that made trump strong was the ambivalence that a lot of republicans feel about the bush presidency. a lot of unresolved issues. and there was -- another thing that made trump strong was the bush policy formula didn't work the way republicans wanted it to. lots of spending. big tax cuts. lots of mi

first lady michelle obama and former president george w.sh were also on hand for the opening ceremonies. >>> we continue to follow breaking news in ocean county this morning. >> police are searching for escaped inmate arthur buckle. we'll tell you where he was last spotted last night and we'll bring you the latest information from police. >>> couldn't have done this without you. you guys were wonderful. >> nbc 10 responds helps again. we'll show you how harry hairston helps get her money back from the new jersey treasury department. >>> he was spotted at a rest stop last night. matt delucia is live there. we'll have the latest on what police are doing right now and what you can expect if you're in the area. >>> palace, police have a man in custody who claimed to kill his girlfriend. >>> if you look at boathouse road, grab the sunglasses, first alert meteorologist bill henley says there will be sunshine today. glorious sunshine. happy monday. good morning. this is "nbc 10 news today." i'm (ydavidson. >> i'm vai sikahema. dry day for us as we

in 1999 george w.ush and others started articulating a message that attracted conservative democrats and independents to me to become republicans. and h was proactive on immigration, education reform, things that really got my interest and millions of other to cross the bridge and support george w. bush. whatever trump's ideology is going to be formulated in this campaign and at the convention speech. a lot of things are getting attention. he's do-to-the left of republicans on trade. >> how about him saying that hillary is more likely to take us to war than he is. >> left of hillary on trade, left of hillary on foreign intervention. he's going to be the head of the republican party. >> there's two arguments you can make. you can make the intellectual argument which you've done beautifully. and i could make the argument. and there's the emotional argument. he's like the kid playing football or basketball. give me the ball, coach, i'm going to score. and that's what he's done since the beginning of this

amy: it's a very good question why president george w. bush, why vice president cheney, why secretary of defense donald rumsfeld, why they committed so many innocent lives in this country. think about the soldiers who went to iraq, deeply committed to securing the united states, why were they sent to iraq? that is a very serious question. interestingly, one of the people who signed up to be in the military who wasn't ultimately, was edward snowden. one the great whistleblowers of our time. he ended up having -- his leg broken in training. he didn't go into the military. ended up working for the nsa. had a deep commitment to the united states and ended up showing it in a different way. brian: from your perspective, why do you think -- was don rumsfeld and george w. bush, were they evil people? amy: when you look at the actions they engaged in, were they evil actions, committing so many lives leading to loss of not only american lives but lives in iraq and afghanistan, it's horrific. brian: why do you think -- what motivated them to do it?

history at the end of the george w. bush administration where these guys were fighting over who would be the next president while the american financial system decided to stop dumping buckets of kerosene and gasoline on their own head and instead move on to the fun part after that where they started playing with matches. and when indy mac exploded, it was one of the largest bank failures in u.s. history. it was actually the third largest bank failure in u.s. history. and indy mac did not collapse in a tidy way. it was really messy and chaotic, drug all those customers, people who had bank accounts and had been making deposits of their own money into their own accounts, those people were lining up to get their money out before their bank collapsed. at one point indy mac customers were withdrawing $100 million a day of cash. right up until the moment when the bank went kaput. and this is -- this was not one of those banks that was just collateral damage in the larger financial collapse. one of the reasons that indy mac we

23% is a far cry from 44% that supported george w. bush. the latino evangelical vote was instrumental in george w. bush because of commitment to life, commitment to marriage and ledge just liberty and immigration reform. the problem with donald j. trump is he engaged in rhetorical hyperbole and demagoguery that humiliated hispanic conservatives that may have embraced him otherwise. >> does that mean those on the fence before evangelical hispanics are now moving over to the democratic side of the ledger and that now that secretary clinton have those votes or can donald trump still get those votes. >> again, all things are possible, right? there is great angst. even on the other side there is great angst with hispanic evangelicals and what is perceived as a democratic party that is becoming more and more anti-christian and more and more secular. and not defending religious liberty. but in favor of immigration reform. so, can donald trump redeem the narrative with the hispanic community? i'm a pastor, do i believe in miracles but boy, this wou

george w. bush did and ronald reagan did, you can't be a counter puncher in the white house and there's a lot of times you have to wait. >> or you can't punch at all. you're annoyed at the media who say things about you that may not be true but you can't come after them for a year in every case. >> that's right but i think a lot of people will have seen that interviewed and be reassured that there's a loss combative trudonald trump thered more presidential. >> he didn't apologize. i mean here he said these things about you, about others. he should have 99 out of 100 people would have said this went out of control and i didn't want it to go like this and he set it up and he could have said i've learned from this, which is another thing you didn't hear, he said i'm sorry, i've learned from there and it shouldn't have happened. i think he's problematic as a candidate and a president because one thing about presidents is they all make mistakes and it's your ability to admit it's a mistake. >> he wo

in 2002, michael ratner filed the first lawsuit against george w. bush on behalf of guantanamo prisoners. six years later, he won a landmark case at the supreme court against the bush administration. today we speak with his family and friends and hear michael in his own words. >> this is no time for compromise, no time for political calculations. us,oward zinn admonishes the job of thinking people not to be an aside of the executioners. remindsin nation prize us all that the job for each of us is not to be an aside of the executioners. amy: all that and more, coming up. welcome to democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. brazil's senate has voted to suspend president dilma rousseff immediately and begin impeachment proceedings against her on accusations of tampering with accounts to hide a budget shortfall. the 55 to 22 senate vote followed more than 20 hours of debate. one politician described it as the "saddest day for brazil's young democracy." vice president michel temer will assume the presidency during rouss

. >> what's the motive of george w. bush? relationship to the saudis. >> they were on intent at the time on attacking iraq. there's a joke of a little by saying to his father, what's our oil going under their sand >> what's the movie. do you really want to go to war? you want to see americans killed over there? what's the reason? >> it's a very good question why president george w. bush why vice president cheney, why secretary of defense donald rumsfeld, why they committed so many innocent live in this country. think about the soldiers who wept in deeply committed. why were they sent to iraq. that is a very serious question. one of the people who signed up to be in the military who wasn't was edward snowden. one the great whistleblowers of our time. he ended up having -- his leg were broken in training. he didn't go into the military. ended up working for the nasa. had a deep commitment to the united states and ended up showing it in a different way. >> from your perspective why do you think -- was don rumsfeld and george w.

so, those were the over arching reasons that led the george w. bush administration after 911 to say, yes, we need to invade iraq, not because they pose a danger. it didn't pose a danger, but because a rock appeared to be a source of enormous opportunity to bring history to its intended destination. >> one of the things that continues to surprise me and concern me is how the american public really seems to be asleep , the fact that we are making such a major investment and escalation now in iraq as well afghanistan, syria and the only thing we seem to be really paying attention to is isis. are we putting too much emphasis on that and it does isis in your estimation represent a real extensional threat to the united states? >> no, it does not. i mean, what is isis? it's a movement at this point that-- around 25 thousand fighters. they are vile. they are vicious. they don't have a air force. they don't have a navy. they don't have math-- weapons of mass destruction. they don't have any significant resource base on which to draw up your good on the al

john: you don't have any doubt in his heart of hearts that george w. bush supported gay marriage?i think it was an evolution or him. he came to discover there were a lot of staffers around him and people who worked for him that were gay and he got enlightened about it over time. said the vice president thing matters a lot. if trump says i can get anyone i want to say yes, who should i pick? guest: i think the latest rumor i saw about bob corker is a sensible approach. but he could get anybody. magically, anyone i want will a yes. colin powell. mark: more than condoleezza rice? -- guest: that would be great too. mark: same thing with hillary clinton, she says i can get whoever i want, whose should she eschew mark -- who should she pick? guest: colin powell. the conventional route is to shore up your week this and do something that gives you geographic and ethnic diversity, ideological diversity, whatever it might be. in trump's case, there is value to the notion that going on conventional, which means going the bill clinton route and finding somebody who is a , ierick and unconvent

in the white house counsel's office under george w. bush. other appeals court judges, tom griffith of the d.c. circuit. some of those names were on the heritage foundation list that came out earlier this year that trump's people said they looked at. mark: there is a range of ages here, but it seems to me some of the people he left off are on the younger end of names that people consider. is that a big issue for conservatives, that they want the next republican president to nominate younger justices so they can stay on the bench for a longer time? pete: absolutely. i would say this is really not a federalist society list -- that has been one of their things, to put younger people, get them nominated to the courts of appeals. if you look at recent democratic nominees, they are all pretty young. of course, john roberts was young when he was nominated as well. that has been the trend -- to try to get younger justices on so they can serve longer. one surprising name on this list, one of the state supreme court justices on the list -- maybe he is

i know we will-- yes, here are some of-- george w.en times, an ex-president for goodness sakes, ann coulter i understand. but john mccain, john mccain say war hero. >> i honestly want to know who is paying ann coulter to speak anywhere? other than-- . >> this is a bubble. this is a bubble. college has become a bubble. a lot of these schools, georgetown, boston college, this isn't happening at nas awe community college and-- . >> larry: john mccain was disinnighted with gnaw saw community college? >> yes, they would be so hyped. >> the point here is that they were invited. >> larry: yes. >> if they were not invited, of course, it's no issue. and if i was in charge, they would never have been invited. >> larry: it's clear, arianna, if you were running a college, it's clear. it's clear who is going to get invited. >> larry, would you have gotten invited. i don't know if you would have accepted. >> larry: of course. >> but my point is it creates something incredibly is dangerous that is a tyrant's view. i find your views offensive. >> the

ari fleischer, press secretary to president george w. bush. what would george w. bush say?hrough this on veterans day 2001 after 9/11, the plane took off from jfk and immediately crashed. it took five long hours, longest hours of my life because the press corps demanded, terrorism is terrorism. i wanted to address the press when i had the fact. donald trump and hillary clinton said this appeared to be terrorism, jumped the gun. we don't know yet and when you are running for president you should wait until the facts are in before you reach the conclusion especially one that says this is terrorism. martha: donald trump is resonating with the american public who are sick and tired of people pussyfooting around this issue. regardless whether or not this particular crash turns out to be terrorism, they are saying we need to call this what it is, islamic extremism. in other cases in the rest of the world, wouldn't surprise me if it turned out to be mechanical and donald trump says not that time. >> too late. he said the plane was blown up and saying it was terrorism. if anybody d

[laughter] you said the vice president thing matters a lot. who should he pick? >> i think the latest rumor about bob corker, that is a sensible approach. mark: anybody? magically, anybody i want will say yes. >>: powell. colin powell. mark: more than condoleezza rice? guest: that would be great too. mark: same thing with hillary clinton, she says i can get whoever i want, who should she pick? >> same thing, colin powell. the conventional route is to and dop your weakness something that gives you geographic diversity, ethnic diversity, ideological diversity, whatever it might be, and then trumps case, there is some value to the notion of going unconventional, which means to go the bill clinton route, double. understrength, finds a but who is also a maverick, unconventional, so i think that there i

guest: it's a very good question, why president george w. bush, why vice president cheney, why secretary of defense donald rumsfeld, why they committed so many innocent lives in this country. think about the soldiers who went to iraq, deeply committed to securing the united states. why were they sent to iraq? that is a very serious question. you know, interestingly, one of the people who signed up to be in the military who ultimately wasn't was edward snowden. wuven the great whistle blowers of our time. he ended up having his legs broken in training and he didn't go into the military. ended up working with the n.s.a. but had a deep commitment to the united states and ended up showing it in a different way. host: from your perspective though why do you think, i mean, was don rumsfeld and george w. bush and paul wolf witnesses, were they evil people? guest: i mean, when you look at the actions they engaged in, were they evil actions? committing so many lives leading to the loss of not only american lives but lives in iraq and afghanistan? it'

and george w. bush and former trump rival jeb bush say they're skipping july's republican convention in cleveland. trump has criticized jeb bush for failing to endorse him after all republican candidates signed a pledge this fall promising to support the eventual nominee. while trump negotiates politics in the republican party, he's focusing more on democrats and his likely general election challenger hillary clinton. trump is criticizing clinton for her vote in favor of the iraq war. and defending himself against her attacks he mistreats women. >>> hillary clinton is getting closer to the number of delegates she will finally need to lock down the democratic nomination. as she sets her sielghts on the general election. bernie sanders is showing no signs of retreating. the vermont senator about to hold a rally at rutgers university in new jersey. that's set to start about an hour from now as he tries to cut into mrs. clinton's delegate lead. and he vows to continue to the last primaries in californi

i've also seen candidates with relatively high unfavorables, george w. bush in 2004, managing to win. >> it's a choice, right? and right now you have both candidates who need to be reintroduced to the general election public. but i think hillary clinton is reintroducing herself as someone with strong economic policies, strong foreign policy. donald trump is being reintroduced as a crazy person. >> thank you both. that does it for us. msnbc's primary night coverage continues with rachel maddow. the polls close in nebraska. good evening, rachel. >> thank you, my friend. >>> polls are closing in nebraska. thank you at home for joining us. happy tuesday. one of the things that happens if you run for president but you don't win is that when you come back to your old job, sometimes people clap for you. that's what happened after marco rubio dropped out of the race for president. and returned to his seat in the senate. that is also what happened today to ted cruz who was spotted by a reporter from roll call getting out of a car on capitol hill to go back to his

george w.ck obama and manage the transfer of power came up with the lessons learned from george w. bush's way that a transition out of office? >> guest: he started early. the president is what makes a difference when the president focuses on it. so in december 2005 end, he taught to josh goldman, chief of staff and said he wanted him to direct the transition and that is needed to be transition effort. and so you have working on -- but the departments about rules and regulations and and regulations and with the guidelines would be for them to hand them in. you have the president's management council meeting was clay johnson who's the deputy of management -- for management at omb, the gathering, the agency deputies to discuss what information they should be gathering. they met in the spring and then he put out a memorandum and i think july 8 and telling the departments and agencies what information they should gather. so all that information is thinking of what you have to do customarily. dalton

i worked for george w.ush, and you are brought up in campaigns and in politics to talk a certain way to address , controversial things in a very kind of calm manner. and take the heat out of it. especially when you are a republican, you are taught to do that on every campaign you run. and donald trump took the rulebook and tossed it aside, and he brings more heat to an already controversial topic. there was something about that that is refreshing to a lot of americans, and there is something to other americans that is very disconcerting. and so, his candidacy inspires a lot of opinions, as you know. and as your show knows. and it is very different from the tone that ronald reagan took when he ran for the presidency three times and ran for a and was successful governor of california. it is something we haven't seen. we haven't seen somebody take this kind of approach and be so successful, but it is a little bit of a function of the times. it is a little bit of a function of how we watch tv with these reality

. >> host: the george w. bush had a reform that got shot down. >> guest: he never proposed the plan. he talked about it during the election, won and carried florida which he would never have been president without that. when they ran for president, they used the formula exactly as i described it and it worked spectacul spectacularly. then they got elected and tried to implement it and the people inside washington said are you nuts? we cannot shift power to the people. we will have to give away all of this power. we have to have power in washington. that is the real battle going on. where do you stand with power of the people or power to the bureaucrat and central government. >> host: entitlement reform is the topic of "power to the people: the new road to freedom and prosperity for the poor, seniors, and those most in need of the world s best health ca " care". peter ferrara is the author.

and george w. bush, former president of the united states, republican president of the united states. mitt romney, most recent republican nominee for president of the united states, won 61 million votes. none of them supports donald trump. that is utterly unprecedented in modern american history. now the trump supporters will say they were the establishment. romney lost. george w. bush just won two presidencies, but they don't like some of his decisions. paul ryan, only speaker of the house, one of the most respected republicans in the country. but the facts are the facts. donald trump is not convinced and won't convince, people, i think -- not just because of his policy positions, because because of his fundamental character, which is not one that i believe qualifies him to be president of the united states. he got a lot of votes, ran a good campaign. congratulations. the rest of us are entitled to find someone better. >> this is the beltway belly aching we're talking about. everything he just lis

george w. bush. certainly,ow -- we undoubtedly many of us have an opinion about the middle east and the consequences of war in iraq. but we won't know for some time to come what is the ultimate result is. but here is one thing that i guarantee you of the second bush and in aget credit for curious way deserves credit. and by the way that he should share with barack obama. , by discarding their most profoundly held ideological servetions, presidents the national interest. the classic case is thomas jefferson, buying louisiana. he said later on i stretched the constitution so far it cracked. it ran absolutely counter to everything jefferson believed about small government and the way with limited indicative authority. -- executive authority. fast forward to the collapse of 2008. george w. bush convinced ifkets, said to someone there is going to be another depression, i am going to be roosevelt and not hoover. and faithful to that declaration, he embraced something called tarp, which may be the sin
