>> kellyanne: you could ask my husband.ut it doesn't affect my job because my job is to be counsel to the president under the best job i can do to provide information -- >> chris: do you think that he is -- come on, you've obviously thought about this. do you think a cyberbullying here to try to get you to quit back to think he is jealous of high-profile? >> kellyanne: some people think that. they certainly do. my first line of protection in this world is and will always be my four children. so i don't really like to discuss this publicly. what i will tell you is george was very supportive of president trump, election night in his hat, blocks away from her at the hilton in new york. wanted to take a job in the trump administration and changed his mind and was a guest of the president and first lady months after he withdrew himself for consideration. >> chris: i understand that. >> kellyanne: and when he withdrew his name he said he would still support the president and his agenda and "his wonderful wife's" work. i will tell

kellyanne conway's husband, george, has been critical -- [ laughter ] wow. he's been very critical of president trump lately, so the president tweeted that he thinks george conway is jealous of kellyanne's success. yeah, today even melania was like, "how are those two still together?" and you go, "yeah." [ laughter and applause ] but trump's pretty upset at kellyanne's husband. this morning, he went on twitter and called geroge conway a stone cold loser and husband from hell. [ laughter ] kellyanne was like, "hey, he's my stone cold loser from hell. [ laughter ] so, relax, let me." [ laughter and applause ] let's move on to something more fun. a lot of people are excited about the new trailer for "stranger things." did you see that? >> steve: no. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: it's season three, the kids are getting a little older. this time they deants thy bribing them into college. it's very interesting.

kellyanne." he's a whack job, there's no question about it, but i really don't know him >> president trump not blast mr con way as a total loser. >> the president is escalating his feud with george conway tweeting, "george conway is very jealous of his wife's success. i barely know him, but just take a look, a stone-cold loser and husband from hell >> trevor: damn! donald trump calling someone "the husband from hell" is pretty amazing. i mean, this is the same dude who has a separate checkbook for paying off porn stars i mean... but trump always insults people with things that apply to himself. did you notice that? like hillary is corrupt, or ted cruz is a liar, or barack obama hates how dumb both his sons are. and, by the way, the part tweet where trump claimed conway is just mad for not being offered a job? it turns out, like most things trump said, it's not true >> conway said he turned down downa job in the early days of the trump administration, and released the letter he wrote to the presid

kellyanne conway is siding with the president against her husband.this. this is getting uglier. >> reporter: and more public. the president is squarely in the middle of this feud between his high profile adviser and her husband. trump seems to relish exploiting the tension in their marriage. for a man who values loyalty above all, it's the you wiultim loyalty test, choosing him over a husband. >> he is a whack job. i don't know him. i think he is doing a tremendous disservice to a wonderful wife. >> reporter: donald trump injected himself into one of washington's most public power couples, kellyanne conway and george conway, escalating a spat into an open and bitter battle. it began this weekend when george conway responded to a trump twitter tirade by posting these pages from a psychological manual. suggesting the president was suffering from narcissistic personality disorder. trump responded calling george conway a total loser. up until then, the conways had rarely allowed the public to get a glimpse into our their disagreements over president trum

kellyanne. thank you very much. >> great day.

george conway is the husband of kellyanne conway.ver made his disgust with the president secret. lately he's beaten the drum about the president's mental health. that's when trump called conway a loser. and when conway fired back, caught in the middle, kellyanne and the rest of the conway family. jeff bennett joins us now. also back with me a.b. stoddard. jeff, give us the back story here. how did we get to this point? >> where to begin on this one? this entire episodes sets up a split screen. you have kellyanne conway who is on cable news defending the president's actions and rhetoric. on the other side you have your husband who almost on a daily basis points out the way that donald trump is unfit for the office he holds. this whole thing came to a head over the weekend. president trump was locked in that twitter tirade, george conway responded to it by posting screenshots of the medical definition of narcissistic personality disorder. br brad parscale said that donald trump turned down mr. kellyanne conway for a job he desperately

so the president and kellyanne conway defending each other and meanwhile, kellyanne conway's husband, george, is twisting in the wind by himself. there's some people speculate that maybe the two conways are setting themselves up for a carville madeline thing after kellyanne conway leaves the white house. that is only speculation. the president this afternoon -- this just happened, neil -- going after senator john mccain again in a huge way at the only plant left in the united states that builds tanks. it's the lima, ohio tank plant where they build the m-1 abrams tank. the president that renewed his feud with john mccain over the weekend over the dossier that john mccain said he thought and he would turn it over to the fbi. the president going after mccain on that and his obamacare vote this afternoon. listen to this. >> i've never liked him much. hasn't been for me. i've really probably never will. but there's certain reasons. john mccain received a fake and phony dossier. john mccain got it, he got it. what did he do? he didn't call me. he turned it over to the fbi hoping to put me

kellyanne is a wonderful woman, and i call him mr. kellyanne.oing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. [ inaudible question ] >> well, are you talking about the one that you just found out about having to do with cars? no recommendation. it's up for review. and the european union has been very tough on the united states for many years, but nobody talked about it. and so we're looking at something to combat it. not only do they charge our companies, you look, it was 1.6 million to google, just happened yesterday and a lot of other things, lot of litigation. but i say the european union has been as tough on the united states has china, just not as much money involved. we'll see what happens. we'll see whether or not they negotiate a deal. if they negotiate a deal, a fair deal, that's a different story. [ inaudible question ] >> yeah, go ahead. [ inaudible question ] >> i think twitter is a way i get out a word when we have a corrupt media, and it is corrupt and it's fake. so twitter is a way that i can get out the

house counselor kellyanne conway. trump blasting out this tweet this morning. george conway often referred to as mr. kellyanne conway by those who know him is very jealous of his wife's success and angry that i with her help didn't give him the job he so desperately wanted. i barely know him, but just take a look, a stone cold loser and

to say, kellyanne conway is now in the middle of these two men battling.thfulness or the way she defends the administration. she's someone who is measured, someone who is well-known in washington is not being someone that's going to attack people that seems unfair. then you have these two men battling in the middle of this. kellyanne conway is right now saying this is my boss. he's trying to protect me. but you can also understand that she has to go home to george conway. you can't imagine around their dinner table what they're talking about there. i think the president, while they're saying and i talk to people, they say that this is not hurting kellyanne conway's stance. you can't imagine if it continues and continues that there might not be some sort of effect on kellyanne conway's standing in the white house. the president said that george conway is trying to hurt his wife. is it will be interesting to see if kellyanne conway can still effectively do her job, when reporters like me when she's talking about opioids and other things still want to ask her

kellyanne conway staying with the president. daily color white house correspondent saagar enjeti, and dave brown. welcome to all of you. it feels like the housewives of d.c. situation. i don't know what is going on get i want to read something. trace alluded to this, george conway was asked, are you playing both sides of that no matter what happens, long-term, you have somewhere to go with this? the president calls her husband, kellyanne conway, a total loser, has been from, and whack. george conway said this to "the new york times" "i almost wish that were so. this is just my way of expressing my views. i don't end up getting an argument at home about it." morgan, i don't know about you, i would certainly be getting in arguments about this at home with the president was ripping my husband on twitter. >> it's a little awkward, to say the least, but i mean, everyone has their own marriage on the way they do things. it's different than the way i do mine, but i'm not getting in the middle of it. i think it is unprecedented what we

. >> there are still questions, kellyanne, about the mueller report. this morning one of the president's lawyers said it would be very inappropriate for doj to release the president's written answers. would the white house exert executive privilege to keep those private? is it the white house's position they can exert executive privilege? >> i'll let the president and his attorneys address that directly. i'm a fully recovered attorney. but i will tell you this. i did note something that's not getting much coverage, which is that apparently mr. mueller and mr. rosenstein saw no reason to interview the president. they saw no reason to subpoena the president for live testimony. so, again, those are saying protect mueller -- how many times have i been asked? i'm one little molecule here. how many times have we all been asked? how many times has sarah been asked, sean spicer, donald trump, everybody been asked. will he fire mueller, will he protect mueller? we must protect mueller. mueller is protected. nobody obstructed the -- >> for months, if not a year-

>> kellyanne: well, the president will look at the options. and obviously -- >> laura: looking at options, kelly and we have been looking at the wall for two years, what options? >> kellyanne: that is not his fault now the democratic congress fails him. this president has made clear he wanted money for the wealth hunting and remember laura he signed on the bus package he said i don't like it 716 billion troops, 750 billion, all this money for the troops and we have other stuff in here funding, like the opioid crisis and other measures, but he said don't, you asked for the wall funding. sure, we will get the funding this congress but they did not do it now democrats, you know what, this president says every day he's moving on with the construction. in this new budget has $32.5 billion for border security measures. that includes border patrol agents, that includes technology, but it also includes money for the wall. the military construction funds, the drug diversion funds -- >> laura: you still don't know where you're getting that money and i g

kellyanne, he is doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family.nedy: on twitter he called george conway the husband from hell, many wonder how this is sitting with kellyanne, she came to her boss' defense. saying, he is the president. left it alone for months out of respect for me, you think he should not respond when someone, a nonmedical professionals cans him of having a mental disorder, you think he should just take it sitting down, many do. but what would rest of us do for fun and work? we meet the party panel. from the greg gutfeld show. and she is awesome, cat. and the jiem jaime weinstein s. jaime weinstein and john shillue show. she tom shillue. welcome. >> yeah. >> cat, who is grifting who. >> i'm going to call my cat mr. cat. as someone who spent most of her adult life living alone with a cat, i don't know a ton about marriage, but as much as anyone on this panel knows about marriage, but i know that i don't think i would want to be on either side of this. if i look at internet saw my husband was tweeting a bunch of things about my boss

kellyanne is a wonderful woman and i call him mister kellyanne. >> the president went on to call george conway husband from hell marking the first time he has weighed in on the conway marriage and he is known him for years. they visited trump tower in manhattan, kellyanne served, in the early days of the administration george conway was considered for a top job in the justice department until he pulled himself out of the running and conway admits wishing his wife did not work for the white house but says his criticism of the president might help his marriage because he gets off his chest and doesn't yell at his wife and what kellyanne conway has tried not to comment about her husband's comments today she told politico she was grateful the president supporter quoting the president is obviously defending me. he could privately say to me your distraction, we love you, you will always be part of the family but the kids need you, go make $1 million an hour, it is the opposite. he also said her effectiveness as the president's counselor has not been affected by the trump slamming her husband.

kellyanne conway? he is just trying to get publicity for himself. >> reporter: another trump target tonight, the late senator john mccain, the focus of critical weekend tweets from the president. nbc's kristen welker asking about it. >> why are you attacking senator john mccain seven months after his death? >> i'm very unhappy that he didn't repeal and replace obamacare. i was never a fan of john mccain, and i never will be. >> reporter: mccain's daughter meghan today retweeting one of her father's long-time aides retweeting the president as a h. >>> there is breaking medical news tonight. the fda has just approved the u depression which affects some 400,000 women each year. doctors call this a game changer, and we get details from nbc's kristen dahlgren. >> reporter: after the birth of her first child, stephanie hathaway knew she had more than just baby blues. >> i just thought oh my goodness, if i put the baby down, i might hurt myself. >> reporter: she was diagnosed with postpartum depression, a con

kellyanne conway disagrees with her husband at that point. a new cnn poll shows the president's approval rate is rising. 42% approve and 51% disapprove, the lowest share to do so since he took office. to jessica schneider live in washington with all the investigations. >> good morning, as we watch and wait for the mueller report which could be submitted to attorney general william barr any day now. we know the white house plans to look at the report before it reaches bar and the public. they want the opportunity to claim executive privilege over any information drawn from the documents and interviews with white house officials over the past two years all according to sources. no doubt, this will spark a political battle between democrats in congress and the white house over what will ultimately be released. while the president is within his legal authority to exert that executive privilege to shield those communications with officials, democrats will likely allege the president is just trying to shield information from the public into that in

kellyanne conway and has suggested as well mr. conway very much wanted a job in this administration. conway seems to deny that suggesting that he withdrew himself from consideration for the job here, which i believe was the solicitor general's job. back to you. >> joe johns, thank you so much. we have that letter from the "washington post" obtained. it was in may of 2017 to the president. let me read it to you. dear mr. president. i'm profoundly grateful to you and the attorney general for selecting me to serve as assistant attorney general for the civil didn't of justice. i've reluctantly concluded, however, for me and my family, this is not the right time to leave the private sector and take on a new role. kellyanne and i continue to support you and your administration. i look forward to doing whatever i can from outside of government. that was, you know, just about two years ago. so the president's top adviser, george conway's wife, kellyanne conway, sat down for a wide-ranging interview recently with dana bash. it's part of he

kellyanne conway, struck me. sounded like he was sending a message. >> i thought it was him being donald j. trump. it was clever. it's an unusual situation, especially in politics or washington and certainly in republican politics for a husband to get his notoriety and power through his wife. it's usually the other way around. people say, you should come to harvard and speak side by side and you should do this or that and i think, you know, okay, but then i'd have to give him my power. >> reporter: the president and top allies restrained before are stepping up their response to george conway on twitter and rallying around her personally as a mother of four children. >> these children, you know, they're 14, 14, 10 and nine. they're old enough to read everything and they're all old enough to have embraced d.c. as home which took a while especially for one of my children. it took a long time -- >> it's a tough age to move. >> let's face it, it is the rare occasion where a family is moving for moms job. >> now there'

kellyanne is a wonderful woman and i call him mr. kellyanne. fact is he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. >> reminder that's the president of the united states. and he tweeted george conway, often referred to as mr. kellyanne conway is very jealous of his wife's success and angry that i, with her help, didn't give him the job he so desperately wanted. i barely know him but just take a look. a stone cold loser and husband from hell. can kellyanne finally weighed in. she defended the president, telling "politico." he left it alone for months out of respect for me. the president is obviously defending me. is he trying to drive a wedge in a family here? >> during the campaign, conway was all throughout our campaign offices. he walked around trump tower and sometimes with the children. i think it's again part of this reality thing and he said george conway was a husband of from hell and i think that's ironic with how he's treated melania particularly. and i think what year seeing is more from kellyanne, a

kellyanne conway struck me. sounded like he was sending a message. >> i thought it was him being donald trump. it was clever. it's an unusual situation, especially in politics or washington for a husband to get his notoriety and power through his wife. it's usually the other way around. it's funny because people say, george, you should come to harvard and speak side by side. i think okay but then i'd have to give him my power. >> the president's top allies are stepping up their response to george conway on twitter and rallying around her personally as a mother of four children. >> these children are now 14, 14, 10 and 9. they're all old enough to read everything and they're all old enough to have embraced d.c. as home, which took a while, especially for one of my children took a long time. >> it's a tough age to move. >> it's a tough age to move. let's face it, it isccasion whe moving for mom's job. >> that interview was prior this week back and forth between the president and kellyanne conway's husband. it is p

kellyanne is a wonderful woman. i call him mr. kellyanne.he fact is that he's doing doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. >> jesse: kellyanne conway responding by defending trump, saying "he left it alone for months out of respect for me but you think he shouldn't respond when somebody, a nonmedical professional accuses him of having a mental disorder? you think he should just take that sitting down?" this happened all the time in the bush white house. >> dana: yeah, remember those days? >> jesse: what do you make of this? i don't pick with ever seen anything like this. >> dana: if you go way back, this has been going on for a while. george conway, not shy about tweeting. but it has ramped up over time. first it was more like really, see section 8 to four of the penal code, whatever. but then it's questions about the president's mental health and there was a profile of conway and her husband, i think it was in "the washington post" last summer. i remember sending her note. i thought this was the finest

kellyanne, thank you. >> oh, yes. that's why he's popular.ou're welcome. >> you see, everybody is popular until they get in. take care. kellyanne conway, thank you for being here. >>> the gop is soul searching, that's my suggestion. the democrats are, too. kellyanne is right about that. so what is the gop going to line up on? the democrats have to figure out. they have to go through a primary. for the gop it is trickier, conservative principles or pragmatism because of fear of the president's pull? we will look at the facts on both sides of that equation, and beto o'rourke is in the news. he's in the party and it didn't take long for the president and his counsellor to pounce. is o'rourke the one that trump fears the most? let's take it up next. whooo! want to take your next vacation to new heights? tripadvisor now lets you book over a hundred thousand tours, attractions, and experiences in destinations around the world! like new york! from bus tours, to breathtaking adventures, tripadvisor makes it easy to find and book amazing things to do.

the president taking aim at kellyanne conway's husband. cecilia, we know the president also going after the late john mccain. meghan mccain in the last 24 hours defending her father, who she reminded everyone, passed away nearly seven months ago. well, the president was asked today while still go after him. let's listen. >> very unhappy that he didn't repeal and replace obama care, as you know. i was never a fan of john mccain and i never will be. >> cecilia, you've covered this for some time, the president making it clear he's not letting this go. >> reporter: and this one goes back a really long time, back to the campaign, when then candidate donald trump said that john mccain wasn't a war hero. you'll also remember that president trump said he's a counterpuncher, but in this case, he is fighting against someone, as you just reminded us, that meghan mccain says has been dead for nearly seven months. >> cecilia, thank you. >>> next this evening, to the president's former personal attorney and fixer michael cohen, and what we learned today

kellyanne is a wonderful woman, and i call him mr. kellyanne.is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. [ inaudible question ] >> well, are you talking about the one that you just found out about having to do with cars? no recommendation. it's up for review, and the european union has been very tough on the united states for many years, but nobody talked about it, and so we're looking at something to combat it. not only do they charge our companies. you're lucky it was 1.6 million to google, it just happened yesterday and a lot of other thing, a lot of litigation, but i say the european union has been as tough on the united states as china, just not as much money involved. we'll see what happens. we'll see whether or not they negotiate a deal. if they negotiate a deal, a fair deal, that's a different story.

kel kellyanne didn't want to deal with it. we have to. names when they're asking you about the names he called people. what he's doing is symptomatic of what he wants us to be. we have to see it for what it is. that's the job. my argument is next. maria ramirez? hi. maria ramirez! mom! maria! maria ramirez... mcdonald's is committing 150 million dollars in tuition assistance, education, and career advising programs... prof: maria ramirez mom and dad: maria ramirez!!! to help more employees achieve their dreams. you won't find relief here. congestion and pressure? mom and dad: maria ramirez!!! go to the pharmacy counter for powerful claritin-d. while the leading allergy spray only relieves 6 symptoms, claritin-d relieves 8, including sinus congestion and pressure. claritin-d relieves more. turn up your swagger game with one a day gummies. one serving... ...once a day... ...with nutrients that support 6 vital functions... ...and one healthy you. that's the power of one a day. want more from your entejust say teach me more. into your xfinice

this is what kellyanne conway had to say this morning. take a listen. >> no i don't share those concerns. i have four kids and i was getting out of the house this morning before i got here and talked to the president about substance. i may not be up to speed on all of them. >> it sounds like kellyanne conway does not want to talk about her husband when it relates to this? no she doesn't. would you want to talk about somebody in your own home going up against your boss? at the end of the day, in that cold briefing that we had on northwest drive way, kellyanne conway did say this. she said people elected this president knowing that he is not the politician, the traditional politician in washington. he is different. she used that word different. how different is different for this president? this weekend was not presidential. that's what george conway picked up. i asked kellyanne this morning, is it normal. she harkined back again to who he is. he tweets about so many different things and it's not just about mccain or late senator mccain or

you saw the white house counselor kellyanne conway talking to reporters after she appeared on one of the other networks, and she was essentially fielding questions about the president's tweets from over the weekend. dozens of tweets draeaddressing sorts of grievances, like i said said, from "saturday night live" to senator john mccain. the president has not defended john mccain, in fact, has done the opposite of that. perhaps the most surreal of all the moments this morning, brianna, is when kellyanne conway, as you played a few moments ago, addressed some of these tweets coming from her husband, george conway, a prominent attorney here in d.c. that almost joined the administration and decided not to, tweeting about what he believes is the president's mental disorders. i don't believe he's a psychologist, but he tweets that he thinks the president is unstable. we've seen it here in the oval office and so on when the president talks about various things and addresses his various grievances. you heard kellyanne conway saying she doesn't voice those concerns and was busy getting her kid

kellyanne conway?ublicity for himself. >> reporter: but tonight, as george conway's criticisms of president trump become more serious, van susteren says his tweets raise add important question. >> certainly, the question arises in my mind, is this good cop/bad cop, is he hearing something from his wife? is she telling him something? is this pillow talk? i, obviously, have no idea, but that is a question that comes to mind. >> we reached out to the white house on that very question of whether kellyanne conway said anything to her husband about the president's mental condition. the white house refused to comment on that, or any other aspect of our story and did not make kellyanne conway available for an interview with us. we also reached out to george conway to ask him why he sent that series of tweets, and whether his wife had said anything to him about the president's mental health. he never got back to us. also, wolf, it looks like george conway is not letting up tonight, just moments ago, he retweete

kellyanne is a wonderful woman, and i call him mr. kellyanne. fact is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. >> reporter: so, brianna, all of this drama is playing out in public, and i have to say, white house aides haven't really been addressing george conway. the president hasn't really addressed him. he's called him mr. kellyanne conway in the past, but today and yesterday we're seeing the president changing his strategy and he's going on the attack and he's defending his top aide and in the process he's kind of getting in the middle of their marriage as well which is an extraordinary thing to happen on the world stage, brianna. >> especially in the tweet where he said the president, that it was with kellyanne conway's help that he denied george conway a job. >> reporter: and of course -- >> he said he didn't want the job. go on, abby. >> reporter: that's exactly right. george conway has disputed that version of, ven events saying h turned it down. the crux of the problem is that there is now a

the husband of white house counselor kellyanne conway is no trump fan. he is known for his scathing tweets. today he suggested the u.s. risk becoming a banana republic under president trump. we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer. you are in "the situation room." >>> this is cnn breaking news. >> tonight in a stunning move, president trump is claiming his former lawyer michael cohen directly asked him for a pardon and lied under oath about that when testifying before congress. with today's tweet, the president may have opened himself up to legal scrutiny and potential testimony in any case involving michael cohen. for his part, cohen tweeted back accusing the president of, quote, just another set of lies. >>> tonight, former fox news executive bill shine is out as white house communications adviser. one source says the president questions his judgment on multiple issues and the president complained shine's presence did not result in better coverage. i will speak with congresswoman katie hill of the over

we know he's the husband of kellyanne conway. by fthe president. here's what he told "the washington post." he said, the mendacity, the incompetence, it's just maddening to watch. you say that this fight, frank, illustrates a larger fight with republicans? >> one of the -- there are many fascinating things about this but one of the things that's fascinating is kellyanne and george conway perfectly illustrate the two forks in the conservative party and the republican movement. there are people like kellyanne who have surrendered completely, and then there are the george conways who are not only not surrendering, but are enraged to what donald trump is doing to the name of conservatism and what he's doing to the country. and when he says he's got to tweet this out and vent his anger, i think he's speaking for a great number of americans. >> can you imagine having that? imagine how many people feel about this president, but you go home at night to the person who's actually working for and advising that president. >> what goes on in

kellyanne done conway. think it's a very interesting legal argument or observation that he's making really about president trump and why it is in some ways you can see president trump ending up leaving the office with less power than he brought into it. >> on top of calling the president narcissist, he's been tweeting about trump's fitness for office. he's called him a pathological liar. a disorder. conway is married to kellyanne conway, one of the president's top advisors who goes and works with him closely every single day. should we be alarmed about this? >> it's interesting. the same day that i had that interview with him he was, i would say, even more unrestrained on twitter than he was in the conversation with me and he talked about have we ever seen such a level of brazen pathological mendacity and he had a clear view of the answer. i know you didn't think it was a good idea for his wife, kellyanne, to be on cnn yesterday with chris cuomo and, you know, this is one of the things i think we'll all rem

kellyanne conway for a job he desperately wanted. he barely worked at the justice department. >> they all have the same comebacks. you're just jealous -- when i was criticizing marco rubio or sean hannity. no, i'm kind of happy with the life i'm living right here. i don't need their lives at all, i don't want their lives at all. in this case george conway because he has character would never want to work for donald trump for one second. in fact, he would be incapable of working for george conway. but, mike barnicle, come on, as my grandma would say, this really takes the rag off the churn. and it does because i'll bet eddie's grandma said that, too, this really takes the rag off the churn and it does because this is the stuff that kellyanne conway tells george conway at night. how do i know that? >> i've seen her in realtime. >> i know that because this is the way kellyanne conway would talk to us when she thought donald trump was going to lose the election. go into the green room, she would say it on set, she denied it. and then a s

kellyanne is a wonderful woman and i call him mr. kellyanne. the fact is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family -- >> before opening up with that, trump was posting about conway on social media and we quote mr. kellyanne conway by those who know him is very jealous of his wife's success and anry that i, with her help, didn't give him the the job he so desperately wanted. a stone cold loser and a husband from hell. and conway asked why it's an insult to be referred to as mr. kellyanne. he said it isn't. and add anded a what i really wouldn't want to be called is individual blank. conway's wife defended her boss, the president saying quote he left it alone for months outof respect for me. but you think he shouldn't respond when somebody, and she's talking about her husband here -- a nonmedical professional accuses him of having a a medical disorder? you think he should take that sitting down? and the president itemized his grievances against the special counsel. >> i don't mind. frankly i told the house if you want, let them

kellyanne is a wonderful woman. and i call him mr. kellyanne. fact is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. >> so, a husband from hell, is what the president called him, and just let that sink in. donald trump calling someone else a husband from hell. as i said, this is not normal. i want to bring in someone who once worked in the white house just to get a reaction to what's going on. jen psaki was a communications director in the obama white house. also with us is adolfo franco. adolfo, i mean, does this make sense? look, obviously, george conway does not like the president. i get that. kellyanne conway does a very great job defending the president publicly. i'm just -- even for an hr issue, the president commenting about kellyanne conway's husband -- it just seems weird, doesn't it? is this really something the president should be involved with? >> well, i think what's weird is how mr. conway has been evaluated by the press. you have to remember where this started. this didn't start with the pre

that's how kellyanne conway's husband is describing the president tonight, portraying mr. trump as deceitful, incompetent and unhinged. stand by for details on george conway sounding off about his wife's boss in a new interview. >>> russia's secret bombers. is the kremlin deploying nuclear capable weapons on nato's doorstep? we will tell you with a what we learning. we want to welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer. you are in "the situation room." >>> this is cnn breaking news. sfwl we' >> the press claiming social media companies are including to stifle the voices of republicans. this as he continues to disrespect the memory of the fellow republican john mccain nearly seven months after the senator and war hero's death. mr. trump building on his latest tweet and vent spree as heed me with the brazilian president known for his trump-like tactics. >>> tonight, a new window into robert mueller's investigation of michael cohen in unsealed federal warrants. they reveal the special counsel reviewed years of e-mails and other data from c

kellyanne is a wonderful woman. i call him mr. kellyanne. he is conflicted and i know that his best friend is comey. and i know that there are other things, obviously i had a business transaction with him that i reported many times that you don't talk about. but i had a nasty business transaction with him and other things. i know that he put 13 highly conflicted -- i call them angry democrats in, let's see whether or not it is legitimate. you know better than anybody there was no collusion, no obstruction, no nothing. >> so i know it is hard to tell, the president is all over the place, look they're excited about it here, but it clearly as the feel of a campaign. he will be working on some tanks, a powerful weapon, and when you do the math of how you will have economic growth, they will make 165 tanks here this year. they want to drive that up, but you compare that with general motors and the army, there is not enough to make up the gap that you need to have if you apt robust and vie brand economy. it is important where the president isn't g

kellyanne is a wonderful woman and i call him mr. kellyanne. the fact is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she's a wonderful woman. >> okay, mr. melania. if you're kellyanne you're in an awkward position. but of course you've got to defend your spouse, right? no. kellyanne telling "politico" quote, you don't think he should respond when a non-medical professional accuses him of having a mental disorder. you think he should take that sitting down? >> i have the smartest people in the world. they're the toughest. >>> today marks the 16th anniversary of the beginning of the iraq war. it is the single biggest tragedy in my political lifetime and formative experience. i was 23 when we set out to invade iraq and i watched in an atmosphere of fear leaders in power manipulated the public to form an elite consensus that we had to undertake that seemed to me and many at the time and ever more so now as indefensibly wrong but so many experts said we had to do it, that sudomwas a threat and bush's administration used that to tak
