abby phillip is with us, patrick healey and matt lewis.ight, so spicer is saying, truly, that because there were quotes used, patrick healey, that does not mean that we should take it literally. he had a long exchange with peter alexander of nbc about what we should take literally or not. let's just show a tweet sans quote, for a moment, because the president did not use oquotatio marks in this one. "how low has president obama gone to tap my phones during the very sacred election process. this is nixon watergate, bad or sick guy." all right, so spicer's explanation doesn't hold up there. >> no, i don't see any air quotes in that tweet. i mean, he -- you know, president trump has been using twitter for years to communicate. he thinks to communicate quite effectively and directly to voters and americans. he was not, as near as we can tell, suggesting this was an iffy proposition. he had a clear accusation to make about wiretapping. he had a clear hit to make in calling president obama a bad or sick guy. what he didn't have was any kind of e

matt lewis, i'm going to give you the last word in this block. but what does this speak about the president's judgment on choosing his advisers, and the people around him? >> well, look, i think that john meacham earlier, talking about how people were generally pretty happy with the advisers that donald trump picked. i would say pleasantly surprised, you know? good people in there. but michael flynn was the one that i think obviously very credentialed. obviously great military background. but, you know, in the last couple of years, especially during the campaign with the lock-her-up chant -- >> that chant, i mean, this could be karma. >> yeah. it's so ironic, right? and the tweets. and he seemed to be unhinged. and -- >> yeah. >> it seemed he was somebody that was sort of an accident waiting to happen. you know? you learn when you're a kid, your parents tell you, be careful the people you hang around with. one does get the sense that michael flynn was a bad influence on that administration. and -- >> or as the president says, a bad ombre. we'll b

let's bring in david swardick, matt lewis, and rebecca burke. welcome one and all. let's start with this news that the senate intelligence committee wants to question jared kushner. i need not state the role jared kushner plays in the white house, he may be the closest adviser to the president, and he's his son-in-law. we don't know the spefb' spefb s we don't know the spefbpefb s specifics of what they want to discuss, but the fact that the senate intelligence committee wants to talk to him is problematic. >> it is problematics because b once again they have to explain why they were engaged in these series of meetings with the russian ambassador, other high-level folks in the russian administration, whether or not anything is found later on to have been done that was illegal or wrong or inappropriate by jared kushner. i don't think the administration has been able to provide a good answer as to why there was so much focus on russia in the early stages of their transition, leading into the early stages of the administration. until they're able to sort of change the

kerstin powers, paul begala, matt lewis, julia kayyem, jeffrey lord, and back this hour, jeffrey tubin. jew julia, you said a few days ago you thought this could be in the works. >> we don't know quite yet what he's willing to proffer and whether he'll speak without the immunity we're hearing about. but just going back a little bit, this shouldn't be that surprising for people who know about how these cases unfold. several months ago, we learned about that weird interaction regarding flynn and sally yates. her concern, the former deputy attorney general, her concern about flynn. that she relates to the white house. they keep flynn for several weeks, and then he's finally fired. we then, next, hear that flynn was sort of cleaning up some of his affiliations with foreign government, in particular, turkey, who a number of people i know who work these cases say that's a clear sign someone's trying to make themselves clean in anticipation of a proffer. and the third thing i thought was interesting last week and why i raised the possibility on air is you kept hearing about carter page and ma

cnn political commentators kevin madden, matt lewis, andre bower.is easy when it comes to washington and politics. that's something we can all agree on, correct? >> yeah. >> in washington, they do two things well. do nothing, or overreact. >> let's talk about all of that. kevin, conservatives are lining up against this, house republicans plan to repeal and rebrace obamacare. here's what senator tom cotton told me. house bill can't pass senate without major changes. pause, start off, get it right, don't get it fast. i mean, that sounds like a pretty smart idea. did they need to start over? or do they need to slow down at least? >> look, you know, one of the things that the house is very aware of and i think the white house too, not so much the senate, is that the pressure is on. house republicans spent the last eight years talking about what they wanted to do in order to repeal. what they believed was the wrong direction of health care reform and obamacare. the president ran promising every single day on the campaign trail that he wanted to repeal ob

matt lewis, amanda carpenter. matt, we haven't heard from you. what do you want to talk about? >> not a great day. but i do think that, you know, look, there's this conventional wisdom that says that this is catastrophic and it's humiliating. i think that donald trump says, who says? who say it is has to be? abandonment is an underrated political tactic. what lapped today is really bad for one day, but it could have been worse. for one thing, this could have dragged on for weeks or months. there could have been fights in the senate, and then it could have gone down in flames. the other option is they could have passed this really bad bill, then they would have truly owned it. and then when premiums went up and people got kicked off of their health insurance, they would have paid the price in the midterms and maybe in four years. yes, it's a bad day. sometimes it's better to pull the band-aid off. >> why after seven years of talking about this is the first thing they come up with a really bad bill? jason was saying earlier, they should have had something on day one for president

i want to bring in now dana bash, mark preston, and jack kingston, and matt lewis. i mean seriously this is huge. dan, i've got to get to you because we're hearing this may fall -- some are wondering if this was the president's strategy all along was to have someone else take the fall for him. >> well, i think what you're referring to is reporting that i have tonight from senior administration officials that there is concern on pennsylvania avenue with the way the speak has handled the process. specifically i'm told by a source that the concern is the speaker didn't bring conservatives who are balking or have been balking the problem that led them to not have the votes and unclear if they're going to have them tomorrow, that the speaker didn't bring them in early enough and not before the president got involved. and that kind of came to a head tonight when the house freedom caucus, this is the conservative group we've been talking about, of course, the house republican leadership and senior members of the white house team met in the speaker's office to try to go ove

analyst kirstin powers and matt lewis.ll here. >> we have almost gotten a-year-older. >> benjamin button. >> you tweeted this after the speech. you said you can disagree with him on policy, but this is the most presidential he ever sounded. if i had amnesia, i would forget he was insane. >> there was a reset. the big question is how long is it going to last? if tomorrow he is back to being president loco, it was a temporary moment of sanity. he is suffering from temporary sanity. if you are an opponent for the last year and a half, you thought he was wrong and crazy. today you might think he is wrong on policy and is capable of sounding sane if he is reading off a teleprompter. it's the best moment he had since june 16th, 2015. >> are we grading him on a curve? >> yes. it's always an expectations game with these speeches for every president. what did people think they are going to say and the expected tone. what bar should they meet. he had the lowest bar to jump over in modern history and he jumped over it. the tone was d

kiersten powers, matt lewis, christine quinn is back with us as well as trump supporter, kay kayleigh mcenany. >> i think it's, the way he's handling it is a little shade eye. if he had that information that is that important he should have shared it with the rest of the people on the committee, at a bear minimum, congressman schiff, and there would have been a lot more credibility had he done that. if you look at what he's alleging here, he's saying this is all legal, incidental. it's not really vindicating donald trump, because donald trump had accused president obama of wiretapping. the other thing that is concerning is that donald trump had said on tucker carlson's show, some information's going to be coming out. and now this information -- >> spicer reiterated that yesterday. >> and we don't know how congressman nunez got this information. so there are a lot of questions that need to be answered here. >> that's my point. great minds think alike. i think kiersten's exactly right on that. donald trump said that obama wiretapped him in trump tower. this was not, this was incidental,

matt lewis and jason miller and carl bernstein is back with us. don't want to fight tonight. best behavior. sally, you heard sean spicer say paul manafort had a limited role in the campaign. we all know it's not true. what do you make of this attempt to create distance between these guys and the president? >> one of the things that's fascinating to me, talking earlier about the difference between this and watergate, these guys don't know how to cover up. so it all seems very inept. for them to say he no role in the campaign is ridiculous. of course he was the campaign manager. how could he possibly say that. >> chairman. >> he was chairman. so if you are going to make something up, or trying to cover something up, don't say something blatantly false that it can be proven by everyone. of course that's what's been happening all along anyway. i think we're all used to that. in terms of what do i make of it? finally even though it's not funny, i have to laugh. >> as you know, my saying it's not funny but it's laughable, there is a difference there. >> exactly. >> jason. i intervi

bring in -- kirsten powers, and matt lewis. as athena was reading twitter, who would have thought that the president -- our president is in a twitter war. what is happening? >> it is -- he's always in twitter wars obviously but this response is especially childish. the allegations against the trump administration right now are really serious. if i was donald trump i would want to just clear my name and try to get everything out in the open so we can understand what exactly is going on with his administration's relationship with russia. for him to talk about something that chuck schumer did in 2003, what does it have to do with thing? >> yes. absolutely. that's why i said what is going on here. anderson just spoke with carter page a short time ago. i want your reaction. >> write policy papers and send them to the campaign? >> i don't like talking about specifics of -- >> you told the "new york times" you did on march 25th. >> that's fair enough yeah. >> can you say who you sent policy papers to? >> i don't talk about internal ma

cnn political commentators matt lewis and jason miller and carl bernstein is back with us. i don't want to fight again tonight. you as well, jason. we're going to be on our best behavior. sally, welcome to the program, you heard sean spicer say paul manafort had a limited role in the campaign. we all know that is not true. what do you make of this attempt by the white house to create some distance between these guys and the president? >> well, you know, one of the things that's so fascinating to me, and you would talking earlier about the difference between this and watergate, is that these guys don't know how to cover up. and so it all seems to be very inept. i mean, for them to say he had no role in the campaign, is ridiculous. because of course he was the campaign manager. so how could he possibly say that? >> the chairman. he was the chairman. >> he was chairman. so, i mean, if you are going to make something up or if you're going to try to cover something up, you don't say something that is so blatantly false that it can be proven by everyone. of course that's what's be

. >> so matt lewis to the point about, it's a good one and important one, do we really know where the stands on this one. president obama has admitted he is a better sales man of it. do we know where this president stands on what he cares most about keeping and what he will live with losing? >> no, because donald trump never had a really well developed world view in terms of policies. he outsourced this to paul ryan that has a opposed world view. donald trump is a nationalist, populist within the republican umbrella and paul ryan is a conservative and they disagree fundamentally on a lot of things so i think there's a real question. if this bill goes down as it now looks to be very tenuous and it's teetering, does donald trump want to stake his reputation along with a bill that's off brand anyway that doesn't match his world view. or does he -- it's unclear now. he can go down fighting for this. he can say it's my legacy and landmark bill and the first thing we have to fight for or walk away from this and call it ryan care. >> you've seen no indication that he's willing to take this a

. >> bring in richard painter and cnn commentator, matt lewis. good evening to both of you. i'm going to ask you, mr. painter, the white house is saying that the president didn't know flynn was being paid to represent turkey during the campaign. and you heard what sean spicer said. what do you make of this? >> this is complete chaos. the foreign agents registration act, since the 1930s, has required foreign agents to register. and he should have been registered under the act and he wasn't. and i can't bel that the transition team couldn't figure out that he was a foreign agent and inform the president. what kind of country is it when we have foreign agents that are able to infiltrate the government without the president even knowing it and take the top post in the national security council? >> did you understand sean spicer's response, richard? >> yes. it made no sense, though. it made no sense, that the president wouldn't know, that they wouldn't figure this out. >> what did you think of spicer's response? did you understand what he was saying? >> no. that's pretty usual. i

matt lewis said he talked a lot about god or mentioned a couple of times could have been a dog whistle to christian conservatives. even though he's not superspiritual, he at least referenced it a couple times. this speech was very nationalist. and there was a dhog whistle. if you look at certain phrases and how he started the speech and kind of how he ended the speech was a dog whistle to those supporters who helped him get there. >> and when he said also nationalists because he said %-p. >> a lot of america first. >> my job is to represent the -- not to represent the world. my job is to represent the united states. and he also talked also at the top about defending -- we defended the borders of other nations. but we weren't protecting our own borders which, again, is something that the nationalist movement is very much in line with. and also he talked about spending money overseas, foreign aide. that's used as a diplomatic tool to prevent terrorism. >> that's not uncommon to put messages in the speech that are a little more subtle to your core, your base. >> we've seen a shift. when d

now, i want to bring in wesly clarke, matt lewis and alice stewart and douglas brinkley, the author of "heritage, fdr and the land of america." back with us, brian fallin, the former press secretary for hillary clinton's campaign. so good to have all of you on. michael, let's start with you. today the fbi director publicly confirmed for the first time that the fbi has been investigating links between the trump campaign and russia since july. here's what sean spicer had to say. >> following this testimony, it's clear that nothing has changed. senior obama intelligence officials have gone on record to confirm there's no evidence of a trump/russia collusion. the obama cia director said so, obama's director of national intelligence said so, and we take them at their word. >> nothing has changed, really? >> i think a lot has changed. >> this was extraordinary to have the fbi director confirming publicly and on going counter intelligence investigation about whether the campaign of the sitting president was involved in coordination or collusion with a foreign power. now, among the many amazin

cnn political commentators kevin madden, matt lewis, andre bower.easy when it comes to washington and politics. that's something we can all agree on, correct? >> yeah. >> in washington, they do two things well. do nothing, or overreact. >> let's talk about all of that. kevin, conservatives are lining up against this, house republicans plan to repeal and replace obamacare. here's what senator tom cotton tweeted. he said, house health care bill can't peace senate without major changes. to my friends in the house, pause, start off, get it right, don't get it fast. i mean, that sounds like a pretty smart idea. do they need to start over here? or do they need to slow down at least? >> look, you know, one of the things that the house is very aware of and i think the white house too, not so much the senate, is that the pressure is on. house republicans spent the last eight years talking about what they wanted to do in order to repeal what they believed was the wrong direction of health care reform in obamacare. the president ran promising every single day

and political commentator, matt lewis. bakari, you saw that was general flynn on "meet the press." general flynn said this at the national convention last july. >> we do not need a reckless president who believes she is above the law. [ crowd chanting "lock her up" ] >> lock her up. that's right. that's right. lock her up. if i -- a guy who knows this business -- if i did a tenth, a tenth of what she did, i would be in jail today. >> bakari? >> well, first, don, i have to caution individuals especially my friends on the left from jumping to conclusions when people start talking about exerting their right to the fifth amendment or immunity because that doesn't necessarily mean that someone is guilty of a crime. i didn't like when the trump campaign did it during the campaign. and i don't want people to jump to that now. i think we still have to dig and find facts. however, on the flip side of this, the hypocrisy of michael flynn and donald trump is extremely thick. mr. "lock her up" has now become mr. "please don't lock me up." so i think what we're starting to see here is this trum

joining us matt lewis, mary katherine hamm and kooesen powers. kiersten, i asked who is the leader of the democratic party, i thought i wonder what she's going to answer. >> kind of notable. to be fair, she's right. this isn't a presidential election year, but at the same time it speaks that there's a vacuum in the democratic party with president obama gone. the expectation was hillary clinton was going to win and it was going to become clinton clinton's party. and now different people like cory booker or nancy pelosi vying to be the leader. nancy pelosi is obviously somebody who would come to mind when you think of somebody who is a leader in the democratic party as well. it was a very the telling answer, i thought. >> the answer was an ellipsis. but part of the reason is that because obama was the president and skilled at his job, they allowed much of -- many of the losses on the state level and let that get away from them. the party has been damaged in a huge way while folks were not watching the storm. >> during the election, it seemed like h

cnn senior political analyst david gergen, matt lewis, former ted cruise communications director amanda carpenter joining the panel as well as everyone else. matt, we haven't heard from you. what do you want to talk about? >> not a great day. but i do think that you know, look. there's of this conventional wisdom that says that this is catastrophic and humiliating. i think that donald trump says who says? who says it has to be. abandonment is an underrated political tactic. what happened today is really bad for one day. but it could have been worse. this thing could have dragged on for weeks or months. there could have been fights in the senate. then it could have gone down in flames. the other option they could have pass this had really bad bill and truly owned it and when premiums went up and when people got kicked off their health insurance, they would have paid the price in the midterms and maybe in four years. so yes, it's a bad day. sometimes it's better to pull the band-aid off. >> amanda, i think to a point you made earlier, why after seven years talking about this is the first

back with me now, mark preston, david gergen, congressman steve israel and matt lewis.s if we figure out what it's going to take for us to get to the bottom of this, you would be a wealthy woman? >> yeah, i think it goes back to what nick kristof was saying. nobody knows what's going to happen. in some ways that's causing panic among some republicans and for democrats they're obviously tossing around the impeachment word. certainly maxine waters has been doing that. i think democrats have to be careful about overplaying their hand in terms of what this investigation might turn out to be. and with the white house, you have them in a very precarious position, basically saying they've never really heard of paul manafort, that mike flynn was a volunteer on -- >> paul who? >> exactly. he's just some gentleman who worked for them for like five or six months. so, yeah, i mean they are in a difficult position. then you have all of this back and forth between nunes and schiff really leading to the question of whether or not any of these investigations are going to be credible to

i want to bring in emily jane fox, a staff writer for "vanity fair," and matt lewis, senior columnist for "the daily beast." as athena was reading that twitter, who would have thought our president -- our president is in a twitter war. what's happening? >> he's always in twitter wars obviously, but this response is, you know, especially childish because the allegations against the trump administration right now are really serious. if i was donald trump, i would want to just clear my name and try to get everything out in the open so that we can understand what exactly is going on with his administration's relationship with russia. you know, so i think that for him to talk about something that chuck schumer did in 2003, i mean what does that have to do with anything? yeah. absolutely. that's why i said what is going on here? i want to play this because anderson just spoke with former trump adviser carter page just a short time ago. i want to get your reaction to part of their exchange. >> so do you actually read policy papers and send them to the campaign? >> i don't like talking about

over the weekend in the wake of the health care bill failure on friday, that maybe, maybe -- and matt lewislier on the show -- this is a good thing for president trump, because maybe, maybe this bill wasn't the best bill, and republicans wouldn't have wanted to have to live with it, especially if they couldn't get parts two and three through because they would have needed democrats on board for that? what do you make of that argument? >> it might be true in the long run. that's why a lot of senate republicans were skittish about this bill all along. they didn't want a lot of this to happen. that said, i think in, certainly in the next year or two, this is damaging, because this looks like a defeat. it is a defeat. it undercuts his promise, not simply to repeal the program, but that he can deliver in ways that other presidents can't deliver. and most important, it emboldened his opponents. so, democrats and freedom caucus republicans are going to go into the next battle with the knowledge they can defeat president trump. so, i think maybe there's some truth to that. but in the short term, th

jen psaki, paul beghala and matt lewis. gloria, no matter how the white house tries to spin it, it was a tough day for the president. >> i think you could argue, and i would, that it was the worst day of his 60-day presidency, and that the road ahead is pretty perilous for him. because they now have this big cloud hanging over the white house. and today was the day that donald trump's own fbi director said the president was wrong, that barack obama did not wiretap his phone, and the fbi director also made it very clear that the fbi had this ongoing investigation into trump officia officials potentially communicating with russians about the hack. so that was not fake news started by democrats as donald trump says. so on both counts, his own fbi director kinda swatted him down. and the white house and sean spicer may be saying nothing has changed, or that the hearings are still ongoing, but i think a lot changed today. >> david, watching the hearings, it was almost like there were two different hearings going on. republicans

matt lewis, i assume you might have a different perspective. >> yeah, this is a good thing.oing and rounding up people and deporting them. this is not, you know, kicking grandmothers out of the country. this is donald trump by the force of his rhetoric having people -- this isn't even self deportation. this is like self-non-illegal crossing. he is convincing people not to show up. look, i think there are probably a lot of reasons why immigration, the trends of immigration are down. but this, what is it, a 40% decrease in the month of february, it obviously is donald trump. and he doesn't have to do anything else, maybe. maybe all he has to do is talk about this. and people will stop coming. >> that assumes there's no danger, right, in rhetoric. i can't help but to think about, even though it's just about the border crossings piece, there have been things that have happened to people here. to kirsten's point, they're trying to escape situations for many of them that are not safe. and they're saying, i would rather risk where i am than try to come there. >> he promised he was

correspondent for the new yorker and matt lewis.jeff, how does the president square what this man does with the promises he made on the campaign trail? >> in terms of the cbo and all that? >> yeah. >> first of all, in my youth before i worked for ronald reagan, i worked for a congressman on the budget committee. and i did his budget committee staff work. i can only tell you, great people and all of this sort of thing. but they don't always get it right. to wit, our friends at the weekly standard say in 2010, the cbo said that 23 million would be enrolled through obamacare by 2017. it's now 2017, and that number is 9.2 million, which means they were off by 14 million, 48%. that kind of thing happens. >> what they say is they didn't realize that first of all, medicare, that some of the states would opt out of the medicare expansion. >> but that's my point, anderson, we don't know what the weather is going to be. it's going to snow, but how much? we don't know. we don't trust weathermen. so why should we trust the cbo? not that they're

supporter, kayleigh mcenany, also a contributor to the hill, and daily beast senior columnist, matt lewis. gloria, sean spicer was asked about this today at the press briefing. but donald trump ran on being a dealmaker. this could be looked at as his first big test of whether he really is. >> i think it is his first big test. and that's why he's having people over to dinner. i mean, look, it's not easy for him to schmooze cruz. they're not great friends. he's not -- he's got some apologies to make to mrs. cruz, i would think. and he's trying right now to let people know he's listening to them, he's willing to negotiate. he doesn't want to negotiate with himself, quite yet. but i think when push comes to shove, this is a president who's also going to go on the attack against people who aren't with him. and we've seen it, it could happen on twitter. and so we're not, you know, he'll start out now nicely trying to get them, but if he can't get them nicely, he will campaign against them. >> kayleigh, should the president have sort of taken the pulse of the conservative wing earlier, before he

we know kevin lewis, the president's spokesman said a week ago, matt. he said he can tell you that the president and people in the white house weren't responsible. >> you said incendiary accusations. it's president trump who made that accusation. >> we're happy that the house and senate intelligence committees see enough to add this to an investigation. >> are they doing that as courte courtesy? in essence, the president is saying, can you find this out for me? when it's something he can pick up the phone and find out. senator john mccain said this weekend, retract the statement to president obama or provide the information. this is information he has. he tweeted about it. he brought it up. he has the power to clarify. whi not? >> i can't comment on the private conversations he has with his attorney general and others on this topic. we're aware of the deadline and is glad it's happening. >> don't we risk going down the road to september 16th, 2016, when candidate trump had to instandront of the microphones and after years of insinuating that the preside
