the big thing out of mar-a-lago was this 100 day review. karan and i have both negotiated with china unfortunately and they're very adept at these negotiations. they're very well prepared usually. and they know exactly what they can do and how far they're prepared to go. and they're very good also at offering very tantalizing hints about removing various trade barriers. the one concrete thing that seems to have come out of it was a commitment or probably at the end of the 100 day process to open up the chinese market or reopen the chinese market to american beef which has been shut out for about ten years because of the mad cow disease or bse where two u.s. cows were found to have bse. this is an instance of repromising since i think the chinese already promised this to the obama administration. they also don't have much of a leg to stand on because japan, china, korea have all reopened their markets and the international body which handles the meat safety standards have said that the u.s. beef is safe. but it's smart because as a deliverab

he hosted him at mar-a-lago. he's also reached out to other leaders in the region. the president of the philippines, which is creating a lot of controversy today because of his human rights record. but the strategy is to turn up the heat on north korea to abandon its nuclear provocations. the reason that the president is saying he would be open to meeting with kim jong-un i think is a part of that broader strategy. but katie, it's also important to point out this white house has been adamant that all options are on the table. that includes military options, and they haven't ruled out a potential preemptive strike. >> did this answer come out of left field? because this morning, reince priebus was asked if the president would meet face-to-face with kim jong-un. he says not right now, i can't see that. but not right now. it's not going to happen unless kim jong-un is willing to disarm and give up what he's put on the mountainsides across that country. so reince priebus said one thing, donald trump is saying another thing to bloomberg. are they now scrambling to back t

reporting that trump is known to record conversations at trump tower and even listen in on talks at mar-a-lago. so i guess the suspicion is wouldn't he be recording conversations at the white house, too? >> yeah, there is a even evolving debate about the heldity of the recording at the white house, the tendency that i'm hearing so far from legal experts seems to be on the side of it's possible that that is legal. the president has said -- hasn't said much about it. and certainly the implication of the president's tweet was that he may have been reporting conversations including between him and director comey, although i did hear michael smerconish this morning say another theory is that he was sort of threatening comey with the possibility that comey might have been recording those conversations. that being said, i don't know any legal authority that would suggest that it would be legal for the president to ser repetitiore sur rep tissuely record folks at mar-a-lago before he was president and maybe not even after he was president. it's not clear if that is considered a secure government facil

when i met with president trump informally at mar-a-lago and i talked to him about the investigationshis focus was on who was leaking. i told him i thought leaking was a very very serious matter and we have leaking which created the story. if this had happened and we never knew about it, it still would be a very very serious matter but the leak has implications of its own for a relationship between various security agencies and the united states intelligence. we have two issues here. we have what happened in the oval office and how it got to the media and russia and syria and hezbollah and everybody else. i think we have two concerns one of which president trump will focus on because he's very upset about leaks within the white house. he ought to be. it's a very serious matter and the world is concerned how the information got to the russians. then story is still reported by two imminent newspapers but we need more confirmation before we know the extent. remember, the white house is denying sources and methods were involved. i hope they're right about that. if it's just information an

i think the relationship that the president established with president xi down at mar a-lago is continuingo pay dividends to our country. whether it's this policy, trade or market access, we'll con to see all of those individuals from the president's cabinet that were down in mar a-lago continue to work with their counter parts to have a path forward. >> sean, first of all, back to what you said about syria. the official policy of this administration now regime change in syria? >> i think i have made it very clear what our policy is. >> over the weekend lot of talk from democrats about the comey replacement process. first of all the jeff sessions is leading the search. lot of democrats think he should recuse himself from the russia investigation. secondly, some democrats in the senate are saying that before they will consider the president's next nominee they want a special prosecutor appointed to look into the russia investigation. can you respond? >> i think this is a process that's running completely as it should, as being headed by the deputy attorney general and the attorney general.

with them which was not announced revealed only by people in mar-a-lago who saw it happened. that is an undercurrent here and will be very important to the colombians whether or not president trump comes out and takes a shot at that peace agreement. that said, this is going to be a news conference dominated by u.s. questions on who's going to be the fbi director, is it joe lieberman? what about bob mueller? what about what's been reported by savannah guthrie, other of our colleagues, coming out of a luncheon with senior officials that the president is very strongly against the bob mueller announcement? believes that it is divisive. joe lieberman, i remember many, many evenings and days tracking john mccain, joe lieberman and lindsey graham, the three ami amigos, and we know, i know from personal experience that john mccain really, really wanted joe lieberman to be his running mate in '08. i think nicolle wallace, your wingperson there, knows better than anyone else, about that. and that he was persuaded instead that democrats would not take kindly to that, and so sarah palin

( cheers and applause ) so that could be the reason it took to long to fire flynn, or it could be that, despite flynn being a confirmed national security threat, trump had no intention of letting him go because it would look bad and the only reason flynn was ever fired was that two weeks later "the washington post" broke the story of his ties to russia. trump doesn't care about national security but he will not tolerate a p.r. problem. what makes the matter worse is trump was warned about flynn even before he hired him by the previous employer. >> president trump was warned about hiring flynn. >> president trump cautioned the new president would be wise to stay away. mr. trump said he was suspicious about coming forward. >> trev

they are paying the rental fee for people to stay at mar-a-lago. we are paying for people to stay at the hotel across from the white house. this is while he is in office. he is making money in his businesses. why should president obama not take a speaking fee when he is retired? host: margaret, to your point, i want to show the story that speaks to that from today's "new york times." it has to do with that on the best -- omnibus budget deal. if it is passed this week, it would allocate more than $120 million in additional money to help companies -- cover the escalating cost of protecting the trump family and trump tower. million pay the earmarks of the secret service with most of it going to protect the president what he is traveling. another $60 million would be set aside in a rare provision to reimburse localities like new york city and palm beach county that have incurred "extraordinary law enforcement personnel costs associated with protecting the president." caller: executive -- exactly. here was a man who said he thought obama took too many v
