what i had been pressing is the armed services committee and john mccain is the new chairman of it ande previous chairman, but i had not communicated that to john directly, although i had at a hearing and will continue to raise it with john mccain. >> so for those who don't know, senator cruz said he had pressed senator mccain on eliminating a ban on soldiers carrying concealed firearms. >> that's right, tamron. goes to that kind of legislation that ted cruz said he wanted to support, said i'd be working with john mccain on it. john mccain said you haven't been working with me on this i haven't even heard from you. it should be noted john mccain and ted cruz kind of have a tricky relationship. remember john mccain referring to ted cruz and a couple other folks as wacko birds. this is the latest chapter in that. >> let's move on to the president's interview with chris matthews yesterday chris asking about his trade agreement that's caused definitely a divide between the president and members of their own party particularly the progressive wing of the party. let's play what he told chris

john mccain and i are friends. we came to the house together.to the senate together. >> so there is no actual threat of violence? >> yeah that is how we talk to each other. i would like to tell everything here that my female colleagues have said something comparable. >> and women and men are not that different on that score. >> let the record show that i actually said bleep. senator reid did not say bleep. we had to add the bleep. i had to bleeping idea that was part of the job. that is what they do. senator reid said there in the exchange there is one great thing that changed in the senate since he has been there and that the influx of women and there is also one terrible change. and here is what he thinks is the terrible change. >> i talked about what is good in the senate since i have been here, and that is women. and what is bad is the supreme court making this horrible, rotten decision, citizens united. it has changed the country dramatically. we have 15 people in the country who are making major decisions for all of us with hundreds and hu

john mccain running for the senate. matt to the question of minority outreach when we talk about rand paul opening the tent running as a republican i wonder if you think he will actually bring people of color into the tent given the rhetoric from the rest of the party, if not on some occasions senator paul. >> i would like at his record. he was the first republican in washington to start talking about those things. instead of rejecting his views on those, everybody is joining him in what is the only real bipartisan conversation happening in washington, d.c. today and he does so without abandoning his values based on liberty, his values based on washington, d.c. getting too involved in our criminal justice system. i think that is a model for how he does reach people of color, young people, people who have not traditionally supported the republican party. >> i wonder though given his position on the social safety net, on a lot of programs that help get folks of color, poor people, young people to the next rung of the econ

does that make every opponent everybody who is down on john mccain a friend of rand paul's? no. whoever thinks favorably about senator mccain think less of rand paul? yes. so he got all of -- he irritated all of mccains or most of mccain's friends and probably gained little ground among people who are down on mccain. >> do you think he is thin-skinned? >> certainly would look like that from the first couple of weeks. he had a very good announcement. i think the event in louisville at the galt was very good. he had a great message. >> and it's a long haul. >> it's a very long haul. but the two weeks after that in which he showed a prickliness when asked questions by the press i don't think served him well. he answered it finally in the right way. he put his wife out there on the campaign trail with the announcement of her i think that was probably fortuitous. but it was helpful to get her out there. thank you very, very much. well will not have a nominee by cleveland. >> you keep saying that. >> 899, the works. >>> in the meantime we know the president is pushing to go green. wha

john mccain will be coming on because as you know earlier this week president obama came out and made remarkable admission that a u.s. drone strike had killed not only an american hostage but an italian hostage as well, and so i will ask senator john mccain who will join us from arizona this morning, joining us very early, about whether or not there are alternatives to this? is there the only option. when i asked the white house press secretary, he said we cannot do an osama bin laden still raid every time we want to take somebody there. >> it's the segue, and john legend, i sat down with him a friday evening, and he was in town for the white house correspondent's dinner, and we take a lot of jabs from the media and critics and the dinner being a spectacle. john legend, he came into town to not only enjoy the dinner but to talk about his cause of over incarceration in the justice system, and we use that as an opportunity to ask about the allegations of police brutality, and it was the perfect opportunity to talk about this with john legend. he was a big supporter of president obama ba

and the president had some very tough comments about john mccain, questioning why he would trust the word coming from the ayatollah versus the words coming from a decorated war veteran like secretary of state john kerry. that's the way the president characterized it during this press conference. but, you know, this is an issue that is going to follow the president right into next week as congress comes back hearings will be held bob corker chairman of the senate foreign relations committee, will be trying to move his legislation forward. and our vote counters at cnn were looking at a situation where potentially republicans and democrats might be able to cobble together a veto-proof majority in the event the president vetoes bob corker's legislation. i think that stage has been set for a legislative battle with capitol hill and we'll see that moving forward. i do want to point out, though, that there were some other interesting moments during this press conference poppy. speaking of secretary of state hillary clinton expected to make a big announcement tomorrow and i thought it was --

you know john mccain feels very strongly about this. and i know him well and i'm surprised he was as -- restrained as he was, if you can believe that. but i think what general dmpsy y dempsey was trying to say, there are two different situations. baiji is strategically. we've been successful with isis cutting off the money. one way beav done that cut off access to oil using to sell to fwhans they're up to. if they capture that refinery it would be a huge influx of money for them. strategically it is very important and i don't think we should get into saying which starting more important than the other, but there's no question that baiji is a very important place, and that's got to be done. but the same thing, ramadi is right out there in the middle of anbar province not that far from baghdad, as john mccain said it was a place where there's a lot of fighting during the surge and the iraq war, and it would be a blow if -- if isis was able to take over that community, but this gets to the more fundamental issue, wolf, of where are the sun

john mccain was biting back on that one yesterday. senator lapdog, what do you think? >> put it this way, senator paul is the worst possible candidate of the 20 or so that are running on the most important issue which is national security. the record is very clear that he simply does not have an understanding about the needs and the threats of united states national security. neil: kennedy says that senator mccain should be dialing back a little bit. >> hello neil. nice to see you. >> so mccain going overboard there? >> he always goes overboard. that's kind of his job. he's like the irascible elder statesmen in the republican party. neil: they called him a lapdog. >> calling each other names for quite some time. if you remember john mccain called him a whacko bird, and it set up the fight between the angry bird and the whacko bird and it shows that the republican party clearly has two nests and it's a rift that both sides are excited to exploit right now you. >> like the rand paul camp. you like that nest. >> i'm definitely a limited government person absolutely, and t

we heard john mccain and others tried to talk him out of running this time. he wasn't having anything of it. he has decided not to run again for the senate. he made the decision rand paul did not make focus on this long shot for the nomination. >> that's exactly right. republicans do want to hang onto that senate seat in florida. i think this is giving them heart burn because it's going to be an open seat and they're going to fight to hold onto it. marco rubio is a politician who's been told no wait your turn his entire life. it really was a lesson he learned early on that he shouldn't wait. when there's an opportunity that prevents itself you take it. sometimes you get lucky. he has -- he's extraordinarily skilled politician and also benefitted from a lot of luck. had he waited and said okay i'm going to hold off and defer to the establishment, he wouldn't be a united states senator right thousand. i think that informs a lot of his thinking behind why he wants to go run for the presidency now even though so many people say hold off. maybe you're not ready ye
