[applause] >> thank you very much and i'm glad you were here. she is also an intern with us and we are delighted to have him here today to cover the things that we talk about. i am delighted i have a chance to talk with you. i think young america's foundation is a very important role. let me ask you a question. those of you who are students at the present time how many of you would say there is a liberal bias on your campus? is there anybody here who would say there is not a liberal bias? it's a great school. i really like that school. >> that's the largest school i've heard. that's great. i think anybody watching this will have some sense of what this is all about a wide young america's foundation matters. part of the reason i wrote "trump's america" is that we are in a long-term struggle that is literally a cultural civil war and those

would you support newt gingrich or rick santorum? sure.ve on to national security issues. 0k. you have been very critical of obama in recent months on a host of national security challenges facing the united states. it seems to me from iraq to afghanistan to libya, barack obama has pursued strategies that have the support of a clear majority of the american people. and i am sure that there are other times in this country's history and your country's history when people have stood up for what they know is right, even though it is not happening. -- it —— it has been unpopular. the american people are glad we are out of iraq. we had a president once called harry truman. everybody wanted out of korea, but we stayed and the world is a better place for having made that sacrifice and the stubbornness on the part of harry truman. the fact is that the president said in his campaign that he would get out of iraq. we are out of iraq. do you know what the situation is there? it is unravelling. you think it would be better if the americans were still t

what newt gingrich also saw was the vast strategic potential.e idea of the term media synonymous not just with democrat and liberal but the idea of elitism. he got his party to embrace a style of populism that placed the media in opposition to the values of everyday americans and it worked. it was the going risch iingrich that broke the democratic stronghold. not everyone in the republican party followed his media play book but he had given them a taste of what he could achieve. lo and behold, two decades later a celebrity billionaire took that same play book, ramped it up in a whole new way and with newt gingrich cheering him on at rallies and television, donald trump road it to the white house. >>> that's "hardball" for now. thank you for being with us. a reminder to tune in tomorrow morning beginning at 8:30 eastern. chris matthews will anchor msnbc's coverage of john mccain's memorial service at the national cathedral in washington. barack obama and george w. bush will deliver eulogies. keep it here on msnbc. >>> tonight on "all in." this ru

we are glad that we are here to talk about it gingrich a production. young america foundation tells a very important role let me ask you a question. for those of you who are students at the present time, how many of you would say there is a liberal bias on your campus? [laughter] anybody here would say there is not? [inaudible] and i got the largest school that i have heard that does not have a bias. it had find out why young america foundation matters part of the reason i wrote this is because we are in a i long-term struggle for those of you that are in the middle of classes how many of you have a professor if you gave it directly conservative answer on your test they would give you a lower grade? have you had professors who will markk you down giving the wrong answer by definition? >> it was outsourced of the universities as they became her liberal the news media follow that pattern. and it is from the news media that we have today. how many of you on election day 2016 thought hillary would probably win? this is a conservatee -- conservative audienc

we come back, the take from newt gingrich. jimmy carter's view of what happened then and the lessons that we could learn. after this. >> neil: all right, you might have heard this, former president jimmy carter expressed his concern about the ongoing trade negotiations. mexico is concerned about if canada comes on board and the posture on trade here. they said, all of this second-guessing what he is doing, particularly in the knighted states senate senators and others talking about how good free trade is for the u.s. paid what they don't say is that we lost jobs and over $800 million a year on a really dumb trade deal. and these same countries tariff us to death. these lawmakers are just fine with this!" ohio republican senator, who i don't think he is talking about, those who are your colleagues are complaining don't realize that we have been getting the shorter end of the stick. is he right? >> he is right with regard to some countries, typically china, as you know. that has been the focus of a lot of us over time. how do yo

newt gingrich was onto something there. by the deputy attorney general in lieu of the attorney general has nothing to do with jeff sessions' recusal. jeff sessions will not be attacked by the media as long as he is quiet with the minute he the minute he speaks a part of something, he'll be attacked. theor manafort trial, here's wht i don't get. most of the issues they are raising, he did all these things, bank fraud, embezzlement, tax fraud, all the rest, he did it during the obama administration. who was the fbi director? mueller. he did nothing about it! apparently when he was the fbi director,ap apparently they didt know anything? now manafort is a campaign manager for donald trump and a thorough 17 left-wing democrat prosecutors out the guy who worked for the special counsel! a matter for the u.s. attorney's office in the eastern directory ofic virginia! that is number one. o now mueller is pushing the other case into the southern district of new york!k! then they set up lieutenant general michael flynn! and they have a

i was thinking about the clinton impeachment scandal where newt gingrich was simultaneously having his own affair with a congressional aide, so that is a great example of people being outraged by one thing but practicing something different in private and there is some ambiguity there. we see that same kind of social hotspot, where there are mixed feelings about it. some people are outraged, and others are kind of secretly accepting of the crisis, what is going on. steve: if you look at what has been going on in the gilded age and the vanderbilts and the rockefellers and the carnegies, in your area of research, what have you learned about the coachmen and other scandals? carolee: coachmen were a status symbol. status was so important to these people. they often had the most expensive delivery, very fancy, livery uniforms. they presented themselves on the top of a carriage, so a lot of people would show up to a ball, and they would be preceded literally by their coachman. people would recognize, that is the vanderbilts' coachman, that is the carnegies' coachman. and they would hire thes

notably, amazing he wins seats, gingrich times man of the year resigns speakership and now apparently bob livingston was going to be the successor and what happens to him, lo and behold he's got to resign from congress because of extra marital complexities. the difference at this point, obviously, was that we don't know what mueller knows. we have no clue. we are just guessing. at some point in that fall we knew exactly what ken starr had in that report steve spoke about of 18 boxes of documents which he unloaded on the house judiciary committee. >> steve, some national republicans are saying they should market the mid-terms. even though you're voting on your local member of congress, if you don't want impeachment elect republicans to congress. the dems, of course, can't do to the opposite and advertise the opposite. >> and that's why the democrats have been so hesitant. in part it's the example of '98. a big difference bill clinton was broadly popular in '98. trump is not broadly popular. he certainly has the base behind him. they voted election day '98, if you have a republican cong

let's listen to the way newt gingrich describes the situation. >> i think the president is very unwise to walk into a perjury trap against a group of smart guys who have spent a year's time getting ready to try to kill him. and i think he is not -- no one is smart enough to take on all of mueller's team. >> and of course there is no such thing as a perjury trap. all you have in perjury is someone who didn't tell the truth under oath. >> that's right. >> in other words, newt gingrich is saying it would be unwise for the president to take an oath. but in that you're seeing a communication to the president's supporters out there, to the president's base saying this is an unfair process. it is a trap and it would be -- the wise course for the president is to avoid this kind of sleazy lawyer trap. >> you know, and there is the truth of it, which is it would be extremely ill advised for the president to talk to mueller. anybody who was his attorney would say don't do it because it's not that it's a perjury trap. it's because he has a lot to be concerned about in terms of the questions he wil

gingrich there obviously choosing the latter. we know the president spends time each day watching. he was watching yesterday's coverage of the trial of paul manafort, that specific case about his former campaign chairman was described by the president as a hoax. this is sort of the way he likes to cast himself, hey, you know, i'm the tough guy here, i can handle this, i can do it all by myself. but what i'm told by people in the west wing and others close to this president on the outside that he speaks to frequently is that they all consistently have said to him, we're telling you, it's a bad idea, but you're the boss, andrea. >> i mean, bob, someone like bill clinton was not only a yale-trained lawyer but a former yale professor before he became a politician. and he walked into the perjury trap and ended up being impeached for it. >> yes. that's right. there is no way that the lawyers here think that he's the sort of person who can go into this and survive. even if he can't persuade mueller it's a witch hunt, there's no chance that he's not taking a risk with a perjury charge. i d

in '94, in bill clinton's term, you had a sort of -- you had the newt gingrich contract with america,ime since harry truman had control of both houses. lots of people still on the landscape, including joe scarborough. in 2006, after the -- after katrina and the iraq war, you had the democrats take over the house and snenate with nancy pelosi and 2010, you had the tea party revolution against barack obama. would you like to know the pattern i see here, mr. lemon? >> there's a method. i won't say madness. just a saying. go on. >> there's a method to my list. the method is that you see these big democratic wave elections after nixon in '74 and after the iraq war and katrina in 2006. after something bad has happened. like a natural disaster or watergate or something like that. the republican wave elections seem to come after legislation, after clinton tried to get through the -- his health care program and after obama did. they both had budget and tax increase plans. depending whether you think this coming election is about scandal or something terrible happening, which has historically f

newt gingrich saying the debate sparked by the story could play a big role in the midterms.e tibbetts could be a more important person had september and october than paul manafort ever dreamed of. she was killed by a person who is exactly what trump has been warning about. i think the left has to bear the burden of being a party tolerating americans being killed by people who are here illegally. >> jesse: juan, do you agree with the speaker's analysis? >> juan: no. but it is so blatant. you wonder. he basically said we are politicizing this for the midterms, and we are going to use it. you think yourself wait a minute. yesterday i sat on the show that i was reminded, kate steinle's brother had said he doesn't understand why people tried to politicize, sensationalize his sister's murder. today i am reading, and i see that some conservatives have been tweeting about this, along the lines that newt gingrich was describing. then there was a comment from one, ms. tibbetts' cousin saying my family lost a member and this is the response? her aunt saying "evil comes in every color,

i would take issue with what speaker gingrich said there. be removed from the political consideration. i also think as republicans, particularly in competitive districts, using immigration as a wedge issue, that day has come and gone. we need daca reform. we have to reform our visa program. we do need more border security. but the american people will not be well served if this is just an election about immigration divisions versus impeachment. we really need to be focused on the issues that matter. and i just want to amend something i said. while i don't think that the investigations here or the michael cohen plea is going to impact republicans in november, that's not to say it's not a serious issue. it's just that i think that republicans aren't going to be able to do much more in the way of investigations because those investigations and those prosecutions are already ongoing. we would be better talking about the economy, consumer confidence, some of the regulatory reform measures we've taken, combating the opiate epidemic, veterans' issu

ainsley: we talked to newt gingrich about it.an was engaged in lying to the american people about benghazi, knew everything they were saying was a lie, went along with the lie, that is why you have the sickness you have at the heart of our establishment. these people were all willing to lie to the country in return for whatever political games they were playing and they all thought they would be protected because they all thought hillary would win and hillary would take care of them and they're all terrified, because the more we learn the worse they look. steve: meanwhile the president of the states this morning has been up and tweeting last half hour. he had three tweets. we'll share two of them. the first one reads this, disgrace and discredited bob mueller and whole group of angry democrat thugs spent over 30 hours with the white house counsel which he misspelled, with my approval for transparency. anybody needing that much time when they know there is no russian collusion is someone looking for trouble. ainsley: they're enjoy

newt gingrich was on "fox and friends" this morning. let's listen to his point of view and dan, i would like you to react to it. >> how would you like to have director of central intelligence so lacking common sense that he thinks he can write a tweet accusing the president of the united states of the equivalent of treason? high crimes and misdemeanors, and then explained that he's really not political? john brennan is totally political, he was basically a toady to president obama. he participated in lying to the american people about what happened in libya and in benghazi. and frankly, brennan should never have been director of the central intelligence. >> jason: dan, what is your reaction? was newt gingrich correct? >> i think so. we have troops in syria and afghanistan. we've got -- >> jason: let me make sure dan gets in there. >> a couple of points here. john brennan has made some outrageous claims including that vladimir putin could blackmail president trump, and he called president trump guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors afte

was newt gingrich correct? >> we have troops in syria and afghanistan, we've got -- >> jason: let me make sure dan gets in there. >> a couple of points here. john brennan has made some outrageous claims including that vladimir putin could blackmail president trump, and he called president trump guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors after the helsinki summit. if john brennan really believes these things, i think he would've been better off as a professional intelligence officer rather than saying this on msnbc or writing it in the press, he might've gone straight to the special counsel and explained what his concerns were. but the problem is that it's not just our own citizens who are listening john brennan, there are foreign governments and spies feelings stealing secrets on our behalf who are going to believe that john brennan and something that we don't earn their trust in our government is going to be degraded, our national security will be impacted negatively. the second point i would make quickly is that

i heard newt gingrich talk about the fact that 90% of the items jeff sessions recused himself from heidn't need to. i think that's probably true. the president knows jeff sessions won't end this investigation. but it's also fair, this has been going on for a year and a half. there is no collusion, coordination and cooperation between them let's have the country move on and prove there was no collusion between the trump campaign and anyone in russia to impact the election. that's a fair thing to do. howie: paul manafort, the trial began this week. he replaced you as campaign chairman in 2016. given what we know now, millions of dollars from ukraine and he was broke at the time and trying to retain a lavish lifestyle. do you think hiring paul manafort was a mistake? >> i think it was a mistake. i think i should have stayed until the end of the campaign. i was doing a pretty good job in primaries and caucuses. i'm not a fan of paul manafort. whatever he did had nothing to .with the campaign or with his tenure volunteering or working for the trump organization. but is he getting the same

chris christie, newt gingrich, and mike pence were the last three. there was a lot of internal discussion about the pros and cons of each of those respective potential vice presidential candidates. mike, i think, has been a phenomenal partner in this administration. he has been someone who the president respects and trusts and listens to for his guidance, and they have really formed a great bond. i do not see any scenario whatsoever where the vice president would say i want to challenge donald trump the primary. ms. feldmann: it is 9:59. anyone have a quick one? >> can you talk about great america's role in the midterms? mr. lewandowski: the great american committee, the vice president's hard money political action committee, is designated to raise money and then reallocate that money to key congressional districts, senate races, and has funded a series of gubernatorial races. i think about chris sununu in new hampshire, mike dewine in ohio. raising money and putting it back into places through hard money donations to make sure the individuals who ar

chris christie, newt gingrich, and mike pence. there was a lot of internal discussion. the pros and cons of each of those. and mike, i think, has been a phenomenal partner in this a minister asian. -- in this administration. he summoned the president trusts and listens to for guidance. they have formed a great bond. i don't see any scenario where the vice president would say i want to challenge donald trump in a primary. anybody want to throw in a quick one? [indiscernible] >> the great america committee which is the vice president hard money political action committee is designated to raise money and then reallocate that money to key congressional districts, key senate i think about chris sununu in new hampshire, mike dewine in ohio. taking money and putting it back into places through hard money donations to make sure the individuals who are running for office on donald trump's agenda, helping them in any way we can. prior to the last disbursement, i think we handed out 120 or 130 checks to either incumbent members of congress or candidates running for congress or the

if you look at what happened at that time -- and i should say, i worked for newt gingrich in the 1990's. i am a biased observer in all of this. but really changed is the sense that everything could change in the next election, so from day one, the minority party is working to regain control. the majority party is working to retain control. and neither of them is quite focused on the work of legislation. the thing about congress, unlike european parliament, for example, our congress is designed to create accommodation, to compel compromise, and not just to allow the majority party to have its way until it loses power, but to force the parties to work together somehow. when they are not focused on that but only on the next election, it is hard to do the core workout budget, legislation, and oversight. host: how do you feel about term limits? that: i am not a fan, and is because members need experience in the institution. it makes sense to allow members to build a better experience, the seniority, to allow it to matter. you do not constantly want new members. i see the argument for it. t

i remember it was in months of , under thethe house leadership of newt gingrich. we took the house and it was an amazing day. within months, i was present when a leader in the republican party was asked, are you now going to take up the cause of the unborn child? they said listen, i am pro-life. this is too controversial. it splits our base. its but the people. we can't touch this one. too controversial. leaders do not back away from those things which are so important to them because it is too controversial. if they do, the other side will make certain they make it too controversial. as the democrats did, you are in and you are out. why are we in this mess with immigration today? because democrats and republicans knew that if they raise the issue from which ever side, they would be called racist. on the other side, they would be for open borders. neither of which was a popular position. our brave leaders in washington did nothing. you're in and year out, 20 years of american people speaking up and talking about terrible consequences of the fact that washington wo

politics of personal destruction and the permanent campaign organized politics an as let's say newt gingrich is generally regarded as a formidable advocate of these things. politics changed at that time and it became difficult for the moderate republicans. so, you solve a senators start moving out and said we are not sure that we want to be here anymore. a whole number of them, 92, 94 or 96. so the politics change right around the '90s. george mitchell got out at the right time and left it for you to deal with. >> host: you use the term political as a campaign and i think that is in accurate description of what has happened. each of these triggered a devolution away from the experience to the political one where the consequences into the strategy became preeminent, was legislative and more political to the point that we have evolved to what you describe as a permanent campaign. maybe for the purpose of those listening let's talk a little bit about what is a permanent campaign and what are the ramifications as we look at the senate and the legislative responsibilities? >> it was praised by si

younger republicans such as newt gingrich who enters into office in 1978 argue that there is no room to work with the democrats on this issue. claims that national security will be the issue through which control of the white house is won. carter shifts to a more hawkish position just as ford had done in 1975. a series of crisis in 1979 lead to the undoing of this idea. on june 18th, 1979, carter goes to vienna and signs an agreement despite all the political opposition to the agreement back in the united states that would further cut into the nuclear arms arsenal. it became focus of a lot of conservative attack. that would be featured as a symbol of the president not understanding the add vadversar of who the u.s. was dealing with. they take american diplomats hostage in november of 1979. the troubled history of u.s., iranian relations dated back to 1953 when the eisenhower administration authorized the cia to mount a coupe against the democratically elected government which had moved to nationalized oil supplies and the u.s. helped to install a regime sympathetic to western interes

by 1997 there were a fair number of people in the party who were not happy with speaker gingrich. how did that make your role different or difficult? >> it was hard. he was very good at being a general in the war. he got us here. not me so much, because i pretty much ran on my own. but he helped a lot of people, to be elected to congress for the first time. he was very good at that. but newt had a very difficult time leading. they would probably kill me for saying this. but it was like, we would wait to be the last one in to see him at night, because whoever was the last one in, that is what he would do. he would change his mind. it was frustrating to those of us in leadership. we would have a leadership meeting on whatever day before we left. we would go home, turn on the tv, and there is newt. we decided, in leadership, we were going to do abc. here is newt, saying we are going to do xyz. this was a problem all the time. he is a wonderful idea man. he thinks. he is full of ideas. but that got him in trouble, because he would change his mind. it got to be very frustrating, frankl

there is a funny saturday night live clip with chris farley and newt gingrich. and again, with all of the excitement that comes with being in the majority and the optimism that came with that. think about 10 major pieces of legislation happening in 100 days. crazy. what role did women republican leaders play? rep. molinari: if there was a press conference being held, women needed to be there. ,omen needed to be spokespeople we were going to get a woman up there. i don't mean to make it sound like it was so great and easy, you did not wait your turn because you are a female. they wanted you out there espousing, speaking, doing talk shows, specifically on cnn, do whatever you need to do to be a messenger for the republican party. so women did a lot of that. >> one example of that was you give the keynote address at the republican convention in san diego. what did that event mean to you? how did you prepare for it? rep. molinari: certainly, the greatest thing it meant to me is that i got to speak on behalf of of somebody like bob dole. again, whatever your politics
