i think intel is well positioned a new ceo who's going to have to make his own mark. these other guys when they have taken over, they'll do some interesting things here. >> like a deal >> possibly a deal they bought a lot of things. >> yeah, and the good thing about intel is it's levered to different industries do you have to believe in data center you can but you don't have to. to dan's point on nvidia, it was one or two things that hit this. if you want to play that big theme of mobility, intel is probably one of the better ways to play it so you have multiple different levers sentiment, different types of industries that can go with a great risk/reward. >> the problem here is that, first of all, if we feel bad about what enterprise is spending, it's all becoming very commodityized. i think margins probably get less interesting. >> would you rather -- i didn't do the other one would you rather intel or xilinx. >> xilinx. >> you did a power pitch on that >> we power pitched that i think it was a $92 stock i remember dan looked at me and said i'd rather do -- he's rat

the intel chiefs maybe want to find a way out of this.his fight is not with the media, his fight is with the truth over and over again. and so his way is to simply say that didn't happen, that's delusional. >> they said what they said and dna dan coats made clear in his testimony that what they were delivering was their best assessment of the facts in the situations around the world. and what we all said is, oh my goodness, what they're saying is different than the depiction that the president is delivering. if you want an example of how it's different, just listen to how they have spoken differently about, say, north korea. listen. >> chairman kim, we have a great chemistry and we're well on our way. we signed an agreement. it said we will begin the immediate denuclearization. >> north korea will seek to obtain his wmd capabilities and is unlikely to completely give up its nuclear weapons and production capabilities. >> so, look, there is daylight between what they said and what he said. there's just no other way to present it. carrie, i

this first reaction was to bash the intel chiefs. let me put up a couple of his tweets. people seem to be extremely passive and naive, perhaps intelligence should go back to school and then after meeting with his chiefs the next day the presidents at this. >> they said that they were totally misquoted and it was taken out of context and what i do is i would suggest that you call them. they said it was big news. >> chris: is that healthy?urity committee on the foreign relations committee, does that concern you and the president says there is agreement between him and his intel chiefs on all these key issues when clearly from listening to their testimony there isn't agreement? >> senator johnson: i will say in one instance what the intelligence traits are talking about any run, they're saying currently and technically iran has in compliance, but the president is absolutely right about the that iran represents not only in the region but the world. they continue to plot terrorist attacks in europe. they honestly are fomenting the conflict in yemen. there are certainly not he

somehow donald trump was cleared of collusion by the senate intel committee. they were not looking at whether donald trump -- because i think, you know, cue the tweets. the president will start tweeting tonight after he has his cheeseburger and sits down if front of fox news prime that he's been cleared of collusion. not the case. >> yeah, the senate intelligence committee does not have the investigative tools and capabilities and powers in the subpoenas and being able to pull financial records and other types of things that the special counsel has. so, yes, they interviewed a number of witnesses. yes, they looked at a lot of documents. yes, they talked to the intelligence community. but that doesn't mean that they conducted a criminal investigation. again, that's what the special counsel and the fbi is doing. we need to separate the two. >> and the senate intel committee didn't spend nine months seeking an interview as robert mueller did with the president. they didn't have a list of 50 questions that they provided to the president's rotating team of -- i mea

. >> he said that he thinks his intel chiefs were -- what they said was mischaracterized or they were misquoted. you spoke to him about summoning the intel chiefs to the oval office today after they publicly contradicted him. what is he saying now on that? >> he's essentially saying the media got it wrong, they told him this was mischaracterized and misrepresented by the media. and he agrees with them after looking at it. >> so then how is that mischaracterized? >> i don't know. i mean, i think it's easier for i think the intel chiefs decided to fault the press instead of have a lengthy argument with the president about whether they were contradicting him. >> and if we can talk a bit more about roger stone. he thinks roger stone is doing the right thing, had polite things to say about him but did not necessarily broach the subject of a pardon. >> he didn't and we didn't, and candidly, don, the president has already said he's not going to rule it out. so there's a certain point he tends to say that comment about this kind of thing over and over. he tends to not rule anything in or out

i mean, he -- i think it's easier for -- i think the intel chiefs decided to fault the press instead of have a lengthy argument with the president about whether they were contradicting him. and he is looking to move past this. >> and if we can talk a bit more about roger stone. he is -- he thinks roger stone is doing the right thing, had polite things to say about him, but did not necessarily broach the subject of a pardon. >> he didn't and we didn't. and candidly, don, the president has already said he's not going to rule it out. so, there is, at a certain point, he tends to say that, a comment about this kind of thing over and over. he tends to not rule anything in or out, as you know, unless it's an extreme case. and i think we will see this, you know, as a certainly it could happen for some time. >> maggie, am i missing anything in your interview? >> i mean, i don't think so. i think that you've hit all of the highlights. >> okay. maggie haberman, fantastic reporting, as usual. we appreciate your time. >> thank you, don. >> thank you. so we're going to continue to talk about this

intel looks attractive to us long-term uptrend still there.oving out of a nice looking base looks like we set ourselves up to retest the old highs. about two-thirds of the way there, getting back to the old highs and usually when you get to the old highs with the market strong as it is right now, we would be a buyer of the stock here and anticipate the retest of the highs. >> buying alongside them >> no, i'm not intel is cheap and cheap for a reason i used to look at a low cost way to gain exposure to the cloud and looks more like a value trap than a bargain the area of the business i'm interested in is the data center which is their higher margin business and about 33% of their revenues and that's because businesses are all shifting towards these lower cost computers which then, they then need to lean on the servers in the cloud to really operate effectively and increases the demand for server chips. the problem is intel seeing weaker sales in the server chips because all the competitors are eating their lunch if they're not crushing it in th

the house intel, no collusion.he word from the special counsel are that they have, that they are nearing conclusion to the witch hunt. >> but this is big stuff. >> and you and i are are not surprised by anyone not finding any collusion because we know that this town leaks like a sieve. there are no secrets here we know that there would have been leaks with any evidence between donald trump and russians and there's been zero evidence of any kind of -- so no wonder that senate committee didn't find a collusion and bob mueller won't and with the left wing media what frightens me are these are smart people. well educated smart people. >> i'm not sure i want to sign on to this. >> i'll say well educated not smart. and they're promoting a left wing socialist agenda in the democrat party and any stewart of history would look at socialist regimes and know that it brings despair and poverty and it is free enterprise like donald trump and ronnel reagan that grows economy and helps middle class. >> let's bring, come back to t

and make decisions that are controversial and seem justified by the intel but you don't see a lot ofexamples of a president who is the number one client of the intelligence committee saying i don't believe the facts, i don't believe the evidence, i don't believe the intel. >> yeah, look, he's the elected commander in chief, the decisions are his to make. he's allowed to disagree with the intelligence apparatus, with the law enforcement apparatus but you just don't see it to disagree and it's not sort of healthy for him to be in such contrast to all of the intelligence officials, head of the fbi, cia and others. i think, you know, it's remarkable to on some of these topics, these are sensitive national security matters. the one that stands out to me the most, of course, is his disagreement or public disagreement with the intelligence community on the issue of russia's meddling in the election. it's one thing for him to be saying, well, i would have won anyway but he raises questions about whether russia hacked influence our election as all. it's really remarkable stuff. >> one of the

i want to make one more point about the intel chiefs testimony. if you read the written statements and watch what they said yesterday, they don't talk about the southern border at all and now we have a president who is imagining this virtual invasion at the southern border that doesn't exist so we have clear problems at the top of our leadership and hop hopefully we'll correct it. >> why is he saying something that has no basis in fact in terms of national security? what's your reading? >> he did make a campaign promise saying he would build a wall and mexico was going to fund it and he feels like he has to deliver on it. unfortunately he hasn't been able to get mexico to fund it and congress isn't in a mood to fund it. >> is congress more likely to pay for that wall than the mexican government? >> look, can i vote for something that's wasteful and inefficient and basically sort of stupid? i could if i get a lot of things in exchange or close to our values such as providing a pathway to citizenship for millions of people. i would car which. but i

i guess my concern is to blame the intel community for the mistakes of the past, the intel communityey would collect a lot of information, especially after 9/11. and then it was political level people who would grab pieces of information and say we have to do something about this. one of these people was in charge of nonproliferation, nuclear nonproliferation, his nap was john bolton. he was if favor of going into iraq and after it was revealed there was no wmd, weapons of mass destruction in iraq, he still supported it. let's hear from this person who is today president trump's national security adviser. i mean, the notion to try to just lay this all at the intel community's doorstep we'll neve listen to them again is, frankly speaking, not serious policy. >> former ambassador christopher hill. thank you so much for your insight. much appreciated. >> thank you. >>> 2020 buzz. who does the president think might give him the toughest time? oughest time fight both fast tums chewy bites with gas relief all in one relief of heartburn and gas ♪ ♪ tum tum tum tums tums chewy bites with gas

house intel committee chairman adam shift announcing today his committee will widen its probe into the president in order to, quote, allow us to investigate any credible allegation, financial interests or other interests are driving decision-making of the president or anyone in the administration. and quote, that pertains to any credible allegations of leverage by the russians or the saudis or anyone else. schiff made the statements as the committee voted to turn over to robert mueller the transcripts of more than 50 witnesses so that the special counsel could check those transcripts against other transcripts and other evidence and determine if any witnesses lied to congress. to date, two trump confidantes have already been charged with lying to congress. presidential fixer michael cohen, whose testimony before that committee is at this hour up in the air, and roger stone, longtime political counselor to donald trump. so it may come as no surprise that the president responded with a personal attack on adam schiff today. >> he's just a political hack who's trying to build a name for him

talk about that, you can give someone a briefing book, you can give them the intel report from the ciabut there is a feel that someone has in a negotiation as well that is important. >> the president has negotiated a lot in his life, and i think that he considers that an area of his own strength. i'm sure he's right a lot and heard a lot from his closest advisors about kim jong un, but when the president goes to meet kim jong un, he will be probing kim jong un, asking key questions and ascertaining whether he is serious about denuclearization. >> ed: we play the sound with kristin, the president seeming to be cautiously optimistic about a deal. we are to be clear that the north koreans have made promises before, even before kim jong un, have lied to come have, haven't followed through. how does this president, who promised in singapore that denuclearization was going to happen very, very quickly, the cia doesn't believe that has happened. so how do we get there? >> one of the things about this president i don't think he gets enough credit for as we have seen him swivel on issues. we ha

. >> i want to move on here but your intel chiefs do say iran's abiding by that nuclear deal.sein in iraq had nuclear weapons, had all sorts of weapons of mass destruction. guess what, those intel people didn't know what the hell they were doing and got us tied up in a war we should have never been in and we spent $7 trillion in the middle east. >> do you talk to your national security adviser john bolton because he worked in the bush administration. >> i doñr and i reseht john and he's not one of the peopleçó th happened to be testifying on that. and i tell people, youÑi can testify anyway you want, i'mçó t going toÑiÑi stopÑi them from testifxkng.Êi but i want them to have their own opinion and i want them to give me their opinion. i look at iron as a nation that -- iran as a nation that has caused tremendous problems. when i came as president of the united states, my first year i went to the pentagon two weeks after i game here, a short time after, and i wanted to know what was going with iran and we were in many locations in the middle east in huge difficulty. every single
