kellyanne conway is the special counsel to the president of the united states. look -- obviously the obama people did not think that your guy was going to win. they were shocked. it looks to many like they hatched this plan hey, let's get all this secret stuff. we gathered in the final days of the campaign, spread it throughout the administration so that everybody is able to try to blow him up over the next couple of months, leak stuff to the press. it looks like a coordinated effort by a former president and his team on a scale we have never seen before. >> and what you just said are based on published reports. steve: yeah. >> in the last week that said exactly that. let's make it very clear today. it certainly contra convenience the earlier spirit of cooperation in having a peaceful transition of power. that would be very disappointing. and, again, this is about bureaucratic systematic leaks in the intelligence and security communities. i would say say respectfully to senator schumer, this is a very typical response to the democratic party these days. it's tha

kellyanne -- the way that kellyanne is coming under attack right now is so out of bounds, and is so overhe top, you know, the snl and open the door for this kind of thing from a sitting congressman to attack a woman of power in the white house, it's really -- it should have been condemned really strongly. >> okay. >> i feel like you bringing that back around is really a complete straw man. >> i've got to get to a break. we'll discuss on the other side. we'll be right back. >>> we're back now. a cell phone video captures a very disturbing scene when a customer in a texas walmart goes on a racist tirade. back with me now, joseph per really, hillary rosen and bakari sellers. this is a shocking video that was originally posted on facebook showing a man at a texas walmart berating an employee who he believes to be an immigrant. the employee says the man in the video couldn't see well with the glasses he had just picked up at the vision center. when she referred him to a doctor, she says he requested to see a white employee instead. she began filming after she called for her supervisor to come

kellyanne conway wants to clear this up. she's moments away from being on the show. >>> right now let's bring in republican congressman steve king of iowa. always a pleasure to have you on the show. you have your own comments to explain. you tweeted support of mr. vilders running for prime minister. you wrote he understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. we cannot restore our civilization with somebody else's baby's. this is being condemned by many regions of american politics and citizenry. what did you mean? >> of course i meant exactly what i said as is always the case. to expand on that a little further, i've been to europe and spoken on this issue and i've said the same thing as far as ten years ago to the german people and any population of people that is a declining population that isn't willing to have enough babies to reproduce themselves. i said to them you can't rebuild your civilization with somebody else's babies. you've got to keep your birth rate up and you need to teach your children your valu

kellyanne conway said she was answering about surveillance techniques in general. let me read you the question she was responding to. one of the things that seem to be dogging him this week is the allegations about wiretaps. do you know whether trump tower was wiretapped. that doesn't seem to be the question about microwaves. she brought up microwaves. why do you think she was trying to drop that implication bomb. >> it doesn't make a lot of sense from a strategic standpoint, there isn't a lot of incentive from kellyanne conway or anyone in the trump administration to be bringing up this issue. weight it leads to are further questions about russia, about any ties about the trump campaign or some of its allies might have had with russia. it really doesn't do them a lot of good. mike rogers earlier in your show this morning said a similar thing. why are they raising this issue, this is going to be another week where we're talking about russia and a potential investigation into the trump campaign. it doesn't make a lot of sense insomuch as this is potentially a strate

e> so who is kellyanne conway. she was raised in a blue collar new jersey town. her parents divorced when she was young. >> i grew up in a house of all women. my mother, her mother and two of my mother's unmarried sisters raised me, so four italian catholic women raised me in this house and that has benefited me tremendously because there's a certain humility that will never go away. >> while president trump uses social media as an important tool to communicate and sometimes attack. conway tells us she considers it a cesspool, in part because of what her children see on it. >> if it hurts my kids more than anything. they all read, they are all online reading. >> what do your kids say. >> mom why do people say x about you or y about you or z but. i say well that's their unconsidered opinion. they don't want donald trump to be president. they don't want me to be there with him. they don't want any of us to be there. we're all criticized and they try to pit us against each other which is completely ridiculous. but i tell them, say a prayer for those people. because

that's not what kellyanne conway originally said. it was to clarify that she was claiming president trump was spied on his microwave or television or through a telephone. >> she had read that those are ways that those are someone that could be spied on. >> michael, one of your great pieces is available online. it is seven easy graphics that's laid out the potential trump ties to russia. >> i assume that you concur with us of the shiny project rules that is not in effect. the intelligence committee and how convenience and the intelligence committee cranked up an operating. the former president wire tapping of his office building. >> look over there. that's a great distraction. that chart kinds of bring you back. >> by the way -- thank you, i appreciate that. >> my point is that if we map all the connections that we can think of and i am getting reader mails and phone calls that you forgot this one and that. it is hard to be authorative. >> the one chart that we have in our political magazine comes out on all fashion paper. you could n

you brought up kellyanne conway.ne you're referring to her comments over the weekend when she was asked about the wiretaps and then she responded about the wikileaks report from last week about spy techniques that the cia used about cameras and microwaves and the like. your response to kellyanne conway? >> well, first, to even connect wikileaks and the allegations there to the investigation into russia is, again, an effort to try to take away from the dots that connect here, which is that donald trump and his team had significant ties to russia, and right now what we want to know is, were any u.s. persons working with russia during this interference campaign. it's an only a distraction. >> you said a lot right there, actually, with not so many words, you said the dots that connect. you've actually launched a website that says "connecting the trump/russia dots." in that website you have a lot of information that you say links the trump campaign to russia. yes, there are a lot of dots. what there are not, if you listen

is kellyanne conway the reason donald trump is president do you think?think there's a good case would not have won the election if not for her. she was campaign manager in the final stretch, third person to run the campaign. also crucially part of the intellectual infrastructure of forming the trump populist agenda. particularly on immigration. for 20 years kellyanne conway has been outside the mainstream of the republican consultant class arguing that republicans need to talk more about immigration and talk about it as working people's issue. she's been producing polls for a lot of the immigration restriction groups on the right that a lot of the republican establishment would not talk to or considered fringe. but she really believed in it. and bannon told me that he was making a cabal a few years ago running brietbart, described as cabal composed of himself -- and kellyanne conway. and alternative to view that had to pass immigration reform. and trump became the vessel for the view that you could galvanize a new segment of the white working-class elect

kellyanne's interview with bill changed his mind. we'll find out in 30 minutes. interested she noted the president is hands-on shepherding this himself and nancy pelosi did what most would argue the heavy lifting and he seems more engaged than people thought he would be. >> bill: and face the issues or quences, mark hannity. >> once it's repealed or replaced, republicans you're going to own this and those who put you in control will not settle for obamacare lite. you have to get this right and join forces. >> bill: what happens if they don't? karl rove is standing by and we'll talk to karl in a moment from austin. >> shannon: we'll tell you where this happened and how dicey it got. stick around. liberty mutual stood with me when i was too busy with the kids to get a repair estimate. i just snapped a photo and got an estimate in 24 hours. my insurance company definitely doesn't have that... you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you™ liberty mutual insurance answer questions about president obama and we'll keep an eye on that speech. if anything break

>> kellyanne conway being the contortionist, trying to spin this. democrats are saying, look, you started this, you made these allegations, you have to follow through on them. but not just democrats. people like john mccain saying give us the proof. you said this. donald trump made the accusation and then kicked it to congress and said congress, you deal with this. now they're saying we don't have the evidence, congress has to investigate. now the department of justice is saying they want to delay presenting any kind of evidence, if any, was their quote. so this is a really big mess. to eli's point this comes of course with a backdrop of lots of important things needing to get done on the hill. >> now, chris jansing, david frum said tonight that the president's bizarre allegation of wiretapping, quote, served its purpose. we're all talking less about the russian story per se but this is also, as kaitlin pointed out a be careful what you wish for period. two interests emerge here, the democrats in hearings and the president has called for it to be in

what is kellyanne conway's status nowadays in the white house?eard as much from her. >> i think she's definitely -- she has a lower profile the past couple weeks than right out of the gate, right after inauguration. those comments, certainly the white house viewed them as offhand. although she didn't say go out and buy her clothes, i'm going to. it was a pretty stark endorsement there. she has not been as visible. of course, last week there was the mini scandal, the memes popped up with her kneeling on the couch in the oval office to get that photograph. in general she's played a lower profile of late, and that might be due to this. it might be just letting this gloss over and fade and let the story die down. >> i don't know if it was kellyanne conway's endorsement or if it's just ivanka's sort of shining star, but have the sales for her brand -- they're skyrocketing. let me read you some numbers. the best performing weeks in the history of her brand according to the president. according to e-commerce aggregator, from january to february, her sal

now we're hearing from kellyanne conway that it might be a greater surveillance. she did not say where she came up with this idea but i think it's significant that the trump administration is employing the strategy to try to broaden this investigation. >> and by broaden is that a nice way of saying really distraction? because if they don't have any proof of these allegations and they are in one way the best suited to improve. >> is it real or sit smoke and mirrors. here we are in the second week of this debate and we don't have a firm picture of that so yesterday when i sat down with kellyanne conway talking about a wide variety of issues when she started to talk about this, i don't think this was just a kind of flighty comment. i think that this is a serious strategy on the part of the trump administration and you know what i think is also at work here chris, something also deeper here. there is an enormous disdain within the trump administration. you probably picked this up yourself that they don't feel accepted by the democrats. that there's still a lot of push

i'm sorry, what the hell, kellyanne conway! how dare you disrespect the oval office!hat was one of the most sacred -- i'm sorry, i can't do this. ( laughter ) i know i should be doing this. i know people are angry. who cares about the feet on the couch when you have the asshole behind the desk? ( applause ) because at this point, honestly, i think this is kind of funny. some people said she was being rude. i don't think it's rude. it's just alternative manners. ( laughter ) no, it was funny how all the dignified visitors in the oval office with their nice suits and kellyanne conway is curled up on the sofa like she's at a slumber party like, "hey, guys! want to play truth or dare? just kidding, what's truth?" ( laughter ) ( applause ) but that picture there is how you know kellyanne conway doesn't have a black grandmother, because if my grandmother found me sitting on the couch with shoes on, i wouldn't be sitting on anything for weeks! like trump and conway are lucky those black people didn't just start whipping ass in the white house. one of those grandmothers would

if you don't know the answer, say i don't know. >> look, i have to give credit to kellyanne conway. she is loyal to this president. she doesn't have a good answer. she hasn't been included on why the president said what she did. >> why is she making the rounds? >> she didn't go on the rounds on -- >> you can imagine coming on this show, and you're boss within the last week accused his predecessor of having tapped his phone and not be ready with a quick answer. >> let's be honest. >> i'm always honest. >> kellyanne not be able to give a bad answer -- >> you're saying what i'm saying. >> it's called the run around. >> that's not what i'm saying. >> what are you saying? >> i'm saying in this particular case, she is already said that the president has information that she is not authorized to have and therefore she could not talk into the situation. all he did was talk about what surveillance means and it's much broader. >> you can google that and find that out. >> thank you for being on the show. >>> coming up, non-bipartisan say 14 millions will be left cold if republicans plan to pus

i don't think there's a doubt that kellyanne conway is one of us. last night, daniel talked about courage. i don't think anyone can doubt that you have the courage to stand up for what you believe in when it feels like the entire world is lined up against you. >> i do want to say donald trump is a conservative and i think you should look at his budget, his health care plan, some of the things he's done by way of executive order early in his presidency. many of the principles he ran on and he was able to engage many voters who were not necessarily as attracted to candidates in the past because they felt that, you know, the way to beat vanilla but to be rocky road and show contrast. i think you'll be pleasantly surprised. and mike pence, our vice president as well, a conservative, so i think the national review crowd should be very happy. >> american health care act. smooth sailing? easy peasy, everything going great? >> so you know how the legislative process is in washington, dc. this is no different in that the house has its version and by the time

i don't think kellyanne conway shoots from the hip. i think she's smart. is there a larger strategy at work here? i don't know. i raised this in my column. is this part of a trump strategy to try to either make this a little murkier or broaden the investigation? it's hard to say. but the fact of the matter is that the president of the united states accused his predecessor of wiretapping him. it's been almost ten days now. that allegation has not -- there is not a scintilla of proof out there. here we are with the republican controlled house demanding evidence, and we're not seeing anything. i asked her about that, and she suggested there are other surveillance techniques to do it. look, is that a possibility? i don't know. but the fact of the matter is, a high ranking official in the white house -- >> she's not even standing by that anymore, right? she's now blaming you, saying you misinterpreted the question in general. may i just say as a fellow reporter, in the universe of convoluted questions, and we ask many of them in our careers, that was not one of

so leader pelosi, the joke was sexist, it was disgusting, shouldn't the congressman apologize to kellyanne conway and honestly where is the democratic party in expressing outrage at this? >> i wasn't at the dinner, i'm just finding about this. but the fact is i'm still in sort of a state of what is going on here that the person who occupies the white house is a person who was on that hollywood video that said the crude things he said about women. you all are criticizing cedric for something he said in the course of the evening and he may be should be criticized for that. i just don't know the particulars. but i do every day marvel at the fact that somebody who said a gross and crude thing that president trump said wouldn't even be allowed in a frathouse and he's in the white house. >> well, i think we've covered the "access hollywood" tape quite a bit, but i guess the question is if one criticizes only republicans when they make crude comments, does that not undermine the moral authority if they don't criticize when democrats make crude comments. >> i think everybody was making crude comme

is kellyanne conway why donald trump is president, you think? >> i think there's a very good case to be made that he would not have won the election were it not for her. she was his campaign manager for one thing, at least in that final stretch, the third person to run his campaign, but she also crucially, was part of the intellectual infrastructure of forming the trump sort of populist agenda, particularly on immigration. for 20 years, kellyanne conway has been outside the mainstream of the republican consulting class, arguing that republicans need to talk more about immigration and talk about it as a working people's issue. she has been producing polls for a lot of the immigration restriction groups on the right that a lot of the sort of republican establishment would not talk to or considered fringe, but she really believed in this. and bannon told me that he was making a caball a few years ago when he was running breitbart. he described it as a caball, who really believed there was an alternative to the gop autopsy view that you had to pass
