jeffrey: i don't even understand what that means. >> [laughter] jeffrey: the point is donald trump could have said something even worse, so we should be thankful? senator graham: no, the point is we have come a long way. net brett kavanaugh is not a gang rapist or stumbling drunk. i don't care whether you believe it or not. i believe it because i have known him for 20 years. if the shoe is on the other foot and an accusation came from south carolina against nl democratic nominee and i got a .old of it if i referred her to a conservative activist lawyer to hear testimony so she wouldn't have to go through this, i would be destroyed. wait a minute. if a republican said why are you doing this? we are trying to hold a seat open to get past the midterms to take power back, the republican who said that could not go five feet without having reporters in their face. the double standard offends me. kagand for sotomayor and and never thought twice about it. i have never done to them what has been done to brett. jeffrey: please, sir. thank you. let me ask you about dr. ford's testimony. somethinge

jeffrey: he also consulted his pow. senator graham: listen, i told him, it hurts you, it hurts john, you're hurting yourself. you are hurting yourself. you won, i lost. i finished in the top 17 in our primary. [laughter] senator graham: i called him every name i could think of and literally ran out of names. and it is over. when it was over, it was over for john -- vietnam, obama, bush, you name it. i have zero doubt about what i should do. i represent the people of south carolina. i love john mccain but my day job is to represent the people of south carolina. they expect me to work with trump when i can. the best way to work with president trump is to get to know him, spend time with him. you can disagree with him, but he has to believe you want him to be successful to listen to you. in case you are listening mr. president, i want you to be successful. generally pleased with the things you are doing, some not so much. he can be persuaded. he has the best foreign policy team around him i can think of. john mccain was al

christie: you screwed up, jeffrey. jeffrey: it's the tyranny of the clock. [laughter] jeffery: your insults just wash off, by the way. years ago, several years ago i wrote a piece about your unrequited love for bruce springsteen. you are a republican, he's not. tell us about your emotional relationship with bruce springsteen right now? are you back? are you ok? gov. christie: we are ok. i'm out of office, so i am not doing anything to annoy him. i went -- the day after i left office, the first thing i did in my first day as a civilian was to go see springsteen on broadway. mary pat and i went and we sat in the second row. did he ignored -- jeffery: did he ignore you? gov. christie: no, the boss acknowledged me. so we have always had a good personal relationship, but there would be things he would do politically and i would do politically that would annoy the other. so i did certain things with the budget that bruce didn't like, so he wrote an op-ed about it, and then he would get a song about the bridge thing on the jimmy fallon tonight show, which i didn't

jeffrey: [laughter] jeffrey: back at yale. sec. clinton: even before, in high school, apparently. look, i want the fbi to conduct as thorough an investigation as they possibly can, within whatever restraints are imposed on them. but i think for anyone who believes there is such a thing as a judicial temperament, and that we want judges, particularly those on our highest court, to approach issues, approach plaintiffs and defendants, with a sense of fairness, there is a lot to be concerned about. jeffrey: i want to ask you a question about dr. ford for a minute. there are a lot of democrats and other people who are certain 100% her recollection is the absolute truth. i am asking this as a lawyer. do you feel 100% certain that the events she described are true and are therefore disqualifying? sec. clinton: look, i watched as much of her testimony as i could. i found her very credible. you have to ask yourself, why would anybody put themselves through this if they did not believe that they had important information to convey to the senate? she basically said that. she thought it was h

jeffrey: [laughter] okay. my question is, and this is -- ied to the president have watched the art of his career, and you moved through medium toward a slower and the reform of communication. the obvious question, given everything we understand about social media and its detriment of qualities, do you request starting -- regret starting twitter? ev: no. i feel very lucky to have been a part of twitter. -- reason i moved to medium medium is kind of like twitter, but long. jeffrey: when you say a magazine? ev: kind of like that. i think they play a different rule. and in information diet, you want things that are quick and instantaneous. twitter carved out a space that did not exist in our information ecosystem. i thought there was a lot of opportunity to improve the nuancedhat enables more substantive type narratives. jeffrey: if you knew some of the downsides of twitter -- i am a twitter user, it is indispensable in so many ways, but if you knew the downside and what they were doing to human interaction, could

jeffrey: just before we close this out. no vast left-wing conspiracy organized by you against brett kavanaugh? sec. clinton: it would have had to have happened starting 36 years ago, and that seems a stretch even for the vast right-wing conspiracy stories about me. [applause] jeffrey: can i ask you a question about that language? i understand the situation which gave rise to the expression "vast right-wing conspiracy," but given where political discourse has gone, do you regret using that kind of language? do you think that over the last 15, 20 years, we have not been as careful as we should have been about the way we describe political opposition, political opponents? sec. clinton: look, when i said that, i was aware of a very well-organized effort that had been going on for some years. it did not start in the 1990's. it predates the 1990's, of powerful interests both economic and ideological, trying to undo a lot of the progress we have made as a country. they were against -- some of them against the new deal. maybe some

jeffrey: he is strategic.lex: journalists are constantly defending why it is worth it to cover a tweet. this is the president of the night -- united states -- jeffrey: a presidential statement. alex: obama tweeted but he was not as promiscuous. jeffrey: obama tweeted about national parks he was visiting. alex: it was very strategic. twitter is the closest thing we have two inside trump's brain. jeffrey: there is no filter. .lex: there isn't the expectation, it will be interesting to see if the next president, whoever he or she may be, what he or she does with that media. as complicating and difficult as it is for us to all navigate, it is in incredibly useful tool. jeffrey: twitter is the opposite of a cooling mechanism, it is a heating mechanism, so can we survive? the most alarming twitter study recently couple of weeks ago, people who are exposed to the opposite point of view on twitter become more polarized, not less. they did in their heels and it has to do with the way that people divine themselves triba

jeffrey: the same question to you, please. [applause] >> jeffrey: what are the causes of polarization? senator flake: i got here and read "the job of a congressman" by mo udall and he talked about what it was like in the 1960's and he said in our m.r.a. or office budget account enough money to travel home three times a year, travel back to arizona three times a year. the rest of the time they were here. their kids went to school together, they associated and it was just a different environment. i'm not suggesting we'll ever go back to that period but that's part of the issue now and i would add to what chris said, it's not just the friendships that come, it's just common decency and we saw a great example of it a few months ago, it was a vote in the senate foreign relations committee for mike pompeo and it was a tight vote and it was mostly partisan. johnny isaacson was home delivering a eulogy for his best friend and johnny had health issues and was tough for him in the middle of the night travel back for one vote and have to

jeffrey: that is true.ut one of the reasons is the dollar strength and rising interest rates, of course that ed on the national markets because of the currency. but in the u.s., rising interest rates was not a real issue until it was looking like there was momentum there, we were going to break above 3.25 on the 10 year. these concerns started to affect the u.s. market. while the dollar has been softer this week, it has not pulled back dramatically enough to relieve the concerns in those markets. we still see pressure on the currencies of emerging-market countries, turkey come argentina and others. that lingers and will probably be with us for quite some time. guy: does this earnings season going to be of a to deliver enough earnings topline growth to be able to compensate for the higher yields we see in the bond market? jeffrey: i think, i think it will deliver. the question is whether the guidance will be strong enough as we look out to 2019, to support investors' expectations. i am not so sure. i think w

jeffrey, i interrupted you last time. it out. >> reporter: i was talking about the end of roe v. wade, the end of affirmative action, citizens united, the campaign finance cases, deregulating american politics, when it comes to gay rights. i don't think same sex marriage is in jeopardy but think about the masterpiece bakery case where a baker didn't want to make a wedding cake. wait until they start getting cases from hotel owners who say i don't want to use my creativity for gay customers, restaurant owners who don't want to serve gay customers. i mean this is a dramatic change coming and the conservatives are in charge, and there is a reason why the evangelicals and the base of the republican party has stood with donald trump all this time. it is not because they admire donald trump's personal life, is he has delivered on what is most important to them. >> why do you think, jeffrey, that the conservatives are much more passionate about this than the liberals? >> it is a great question, wolf. in the 2016 campaign, during

jeffrey toobin, what do you think about the president's words?really think that they inspire, they encourage these white supremacists? >> well, the guy who shot up the synagogue, you know, he was talking about the caravan, which is something that's been of obsessive interest on "fox news" and with the president. you know, manufacturing a crisis where none existed. and then the guy who was trying to bomb cnn and everyone else, i mean he was very explicitly trying to do president trump's bidding. so, i mean, you know, let's just look at what happened. it doesn't appear all that complicated. >> what do you think, david, is fuelling this increase in these white supremacist attacks, this domestic terrorist? >> i think it has to be said when someone commits the acts of violence, the onus is on that individual. of course, president trump -- or i should say it seem it implausible that president trump wants these acts of violence to happen, but it also defies common sense to think that his constant resort to his overheated rhetoric, making people fear eac

correct, jeffrey? >> yes. because what that commercial did was to reverse the actual relations of power in this world and present the united states, the most powerful country in the world, as instead a victim of nameless global interests which were associated in that commercial with some leading jewish personalities. now, then candidate trump must -- apparently was ignorant of the history of the 1930s and '40s and apparently was unaware that this kind of rubbish was standard fare in nazi propaganda. it was a shocking commercial. and as soon as i saw it, my fear was that if he were elected president that sooner or later something like what happened in pittsburgh would happen. and it has. >> what would you like to hear from him in responding to these tragedies and going forward? >> well, i think the president is what, 71 or 72 years old? he is who he is. and i think it's a little bit silly for us to expect he's going to say something different. >> i agree with you. >> the president is not a stupid man. he's an a

but it's not an urgent problem like he says it is. >> go ahead, jeffrey. >> it's 1,000 miles away! 1,000 miles. you know how long it takes to walk 1,000 miles? i mean, this whole thing is absurd. it is a completely manufactured, you know, appeal to the ugliest sentiments of trump's coalition. the idea that we are under threat from these poor, desperate people, is just absurd. and, you know, the lies that he keeps telling about who is in this group, with no proof at all. i mean, it is just the bottom of the barrel politics that he's engaged in. and, frankly, you know, i wonder about our complicity in just talking about this, as if this is some kind of close to immediate threat. >> but he is the president of the united states. you can't ignore what the president of the united states says. >> i understand that. but, you know, we can focus on some things more than others. and i think, you know, this transparent attempt to create a crisis where none exists -- yes, it is good we're calling it out. and this is a struggle we've had with covering donald trump from the very beginning. do you

>> i think jeffrey is right.eally going to change, if anything, after the midterms is whether or not democrats have subpoena power, the chairmanships they need to look into questions they have been up able to get answers to because the republicans control the committees in both houses. >> jeffrey, does the president not understand the role of a white house counsel as opposed to a personal attorney that he might hire? >> no, he doesn't, because he thinks the entire federal government works for him. >> yes. >> yeah. >> he thinks jeff sessions is his private lawyer. he thinks don mcgahn was his private lawyer. he doesn't like his private lawyers, he keeps getting rid of them. this is someone who thinks that a bad result is the fault of the people around him, not the underlying conduct. he's the one who fired james comey. he's the one who told lester holt he fired him because of the russia investigation. this is all on him, but he lashes out at the people he holds responsible. >> everybody stick around, hold on, ther

as jeffrey says, rod rosenstein and jeff sessions are hanging by a thread right now. >> they are.hey're keenly aware they serve at the pleasure of the president, who is often displeased with both of them and the underlying investigation. what is most important is the striking contrast in his staemts about trying to infuse faith in the investigation, that american people should have faith in the result whatever it may be, not signaling one way or the other the result, but unlike what the president is saying all along about it being a witch hunt, a total scam and sham, and the fbi who are part of the probe being people you cannot trust. you have somebody overseeing it and telling the american people, you can believe in me and not the words of the president. not exactly consistent enough to give that type of faith that says he is not on the thin line with the president of the united states. >> things could quickly, sara, very dramatically unfold shortly after the midterm elections in less than three weeks. >> right. i think the key thing to remember about mueller right now, you know,

i want to bring in our chief legal analyst, jeffrey toobin.eff, what do you make of this bombshell report? >> well, you know, to paraphrase governor ann richards, donald trump was born on third base and he thinks he hit a triple. i mean this is an extraordinary story of inherited wealth, and inherited wealth multiplied corruptly through abuse of the tax laws. it is really an incredible piece of journalism by "the new york times" which spent a year and a half on this story. you know, it is not involved just on whistleblowers, it has the actual tax documents. so, i mean it seems like an absolutely bullet-proof story to me. >> do you see any legal liability here for the president or for the trump organization? >> it is very hard to say. probably not because a lot of this really goes back to things that went on in the 1990s and the statute of limitations even for taxes, which tends to be long, like ten years, has probably expired. but there's a real political dimension to this, too. if the democrats retake the house of representatives as seems mor

devices -- jeffrey has an idea and model that is fascinating, and that is, think of a feature-length movie or tv series, three to four hours, high quality, curated and done for a mobile handset, and curated and done in 10 minute segments. as opposed to 26 minute segments for the average sitcom, think 10 minute segments, and how this will change people consume content. it will change the way you go through the course of your day. we are just now beginning to see these models emerge. i mentioned this to you backstage, the media industry is finally starting to change their business models around where this world is going. the media industry is pretty slow to make these changes. at howbeen surprised slow they are in this, but we are seeing media companies move ahead with dynamic exciting business models. gerald: you mentioned news and cnn, we might as well go there. the president loves to hate cnn. randall: i have heard about this. gerald: the justice department tried to stop your acquisition of time warner, but the deal is closed now. do you have a different relationship with the presid

. >> joining us now to discuss, david gregory and cnn chief legal analyst jeffrey toobin. i can't be sure about this, but i think mitch mcconnell just told us he's going to do whatever the heck he wants when it comes to supreme court nominations. >> i think you can be sure about this. if donald trump has a supreme court vacancy, at any point, including with 24 hours to go in his presidency, mitch mcconnell will try to confirm a supreme court justice, notwithstanding what happened with barack obama and merrick garland. this is his legacy as a senate leader, stopping democratic judicial nominees and pushing through republican nominees. >> it's important to note he also knows there's a republican base, a conservative base that not just appreciates that issue but will vote on this issue, which is why he does it and why he will make no bones about why he will do one thing and say another and do something else. >> there's a word that begins with h that i'm looking for here. >> hypocrisy. you're a smart guy. you know all those long words. the democrats, for whatever reason -- thi

research good to speak to jeffrey we've heard it from mike pence he says that chinese tariffs could affect the upcoming u.s. midterms and undermine president trump do you do you think he's got that right is that what the chinese are trying to do. i think pence is completely wrong on this actually than people who are paying the biggest price for those happened to be trump's base and you can know this because trump administration itself and you can't believe this actually it's a shocking as author authorised something like fifteen billion dollars in payments to farmers who have lost markets foreign markets for their goods and now you've got applications going into washington the tens of thousands of people asking for money to be compensated for lost markets so this trade policy is not not going to help for the trumpet ministration politically and so i don't believe plans means though that china is targeting his electoral base knowing that it's going to be bad news for term. look there's no reason for china to target anybody were it not for the fact that us was targeted china we had pe

it was jeffrey. they wanted to open the records as soon as possible on russia. >> right. >> he wanted the american people to be exposed to that story. and so the good news about the johnsons and i think what makes the lbj library a solid institution is they never been heavy handed about the story that we're telling. >> unlike the kennedy library. >> it can be different for the different institutions. there's a great story, one of my favorite stories. richard nixon attended the 1961 inaugural of john f. kennedy who beat him for the presidency in the election in 1960. and as he was walking out, he runs into ted sorenson, one of kennedy's speechwriters. and nixon says to sorenson, i wish i said some of those things. and sorenson said, you mean the part where he said ask not what can you do for your country? and nixon said, no, the part where he said i do solomnly swear the point about that story is every man who takes the office wants to put his stamp on the presidency, his unique stamp. and the institu

let's bring in chris cillizza, and jeffrey toobin, and cnn legal and national security analyst, a former fbi special agent. >> how many times do i have to travel before jeff flake? >> one more. >> a lot of people take notes on what i say, but not everybody does. i was very critical of jeff flake before last week that he was big talk and no action, and i was wrong, he was the person that got the fbi probe going and it was all his initiative and hats off to him. >> is it a real probe, though? >> i think that remains an open question at this point. there are out right con tpr contradictions in the report about it, and if you listen to the president he says they have free reign, and some say it's tightly controlled, and by the end of the week we will know, we will know how many people they talked to and whether they did an investigation of the pending allegations, but at this point i just don't know and i don't think anybody knows. >> you worked as an fbi agent for many years, so let's talk about how this process will work. here are the witnesses that we know of that the fbi will speak to th

jeffrey talked about it, and i think everybody should go back and read jeffrey's book on the starr investigation, because it lays out how not to do it. we don't know what mueller has, and that's the way it should be. he's done this work very responsibly, and we all just have to wait now. >> you know, abby -- go ahead. >> let's talk about what a brilliant man he is, with exquisite literary taste. >> abby, nothing in washington happens by accident. rod rosenstein invited a "wall street journal" reporter in for a sit-down interview to answer questions on the record out loud about the mueller investigation. you just have to wonder what is going on there, especially when he apparently had a friendly plane trip with the president where they talked about staying on the job for at least another three weeks. >> yeah, john, you would almost be forgiven for forgetting a few weeks ago we thought he might be fired on the spot in the white house, because he was allegedly discussing using the 25th amendment to remove president trump, but there's a relationship between that wall street skwraourpbjournal interv

i think jeffrey katzenberg what he is doing in terms of he's now -- we talk about long form content will it be consumed on these devices. jeffrey has got an idea a model i think is fascinating, think of a great feature link movie or tv series, three or four hours, but think about this done high, high quality, really high quality, curated and done for a mobile handset and curated and done in intentionally ten-minute segments as opposed to 26 minute segments for the average sitcom, think ten-minute segments and how this is going to change how people consume content and how it will change the way you go through the course of your day. i think all of these things, we're just beginning to see these models emerge. i mentioned this to you back stage, but the media industry is finally starting to change their business models. around where this world is going. the media industry is slow to make these changes. i've been surprised how slow they are in this, but i think we're finally beginning to see the media company move ahead with dynamic, exciting business models. >> you mentioned news and cnn,

>> i want to get jeffrey toobin's thoughts on all of this.hat the president said earlier today about the possibility of his daughter, ivanka, becoming the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. >> i think ivanka would be incredible. that doesn't mean i would, you know, pick her because you would be accused of nepotism. even though i'm not sure there's anybody more competent in the world. >> all right. jeffrey. >> well, you know, there's nothing this president and his family likes better than nepotism. i mean we learned from "the new york times" that his father gave him the equivalent of $400 million to get started in the real estate business. you know, he's got jared kushner, his son-in-law. he has ivanka, his daughter, in very prominent positions in the white house. none of those positions require senate confirmation, and i think that's something they'll want to stay away from. but, look, i think what's become clear is that the secretary of state and the national -- and the u.n. ambassador in this administration is donald trump. you know, he had somewh
