and nbc's halle jackson is traveling with the president. notable comments were made about north korea's recent missile tests. >> reporter: yes, let's start there, because president trump essentially brushed off those missile tests recently by north korea. saying that it doesn't matter basically, when asked if he believes that those violated u.n. security council resolution. that was a direct contradiction to the opinion of the man standing next to him, jam niece prime minister shinzo abe, and a contradiction to what we already heard from president trump's only national security adviser john bolton, the president said in essence said publicly that some of his advisers thought it was a violation but he himself felt it didn't matter that perhaps it was simply a matter for kim jong-un to get his attention. also notably on a topic of north korea, president trump believes that denuclearization could still be possible but in no rush to get to a deal and apparently has no regrets about his tweet that seemed to side with the north korean dictator ag

halle. >> thanks, halle jackson at the white house. i will be speaking to jeff rosen at the national constitution center and liz holtzman who was involved in the watergate trials, the watergate hearings. i go es the examples that i have been looking for in terms of a president extending executive privilege over everything, not even specifics. but everything having to do within with an investigation into that president is something that prior administrations approached with caution and care. what's the feeling at the white house about this? >> that this is the right move for them. they will point to past instances where presidents haven't heard of the executive order or executive privilege i should say in order to protect certain materials. i do think it's important to explain what we are talking about here. people ask the question the mueller report is already out, at least it's unredacted version. that's not what the white house is trying to do here, there are tons of pieces of evidence, the stuff used in essence to compile that muell

halle jackson asked account president about don mcgahn today. >> should don mcgahn be held in contempt of congresses? >> i don't know anything about what's going on. >> yesterday trump attacked fbi direct ker christopher wray who the president appointed to the job after he fired comey. he tweeted the fbi has no leadership -- the director is protecting the same gang that tried to overthrow the president through an illegal coupe. that is not true, no one attempted to overthrow throw the president. that has never happened. american history. donald trump is one of the very few presidents who has been the subject of a criminal investigation by a special prosecutor work within the justice department. that is a legal and constitutional process. the reason for the president's sudden attack on his own appointed fbi director is that the fbi director disagreed with what has become the trump way of describing the fbi, a description echoed by the president's new attorney general william barr. here is fbi direct ker christopher wray refusing to say the trump magic word "spying." >> when fbi agents c
