during this portion, arizona's governor and cindy mccain and the widow of john mccain sat down to discuss human trafficking and how to combat it. this is half an hour. >> good morning, everyone. this morning's session is on human trafficking. i think we are all aware what pervasive evil human trafficking is. it affects every state in our nation and millions of people around the world. we know that it takes everyone working together. we have seen this in arizona to make a difference. both local, state and federal governments, law enforcement, non-profits and others. earlier, nga had adopted a new policy to advocate for partnership across all sectors to fight this evil. my name is doug ducey. i'm the governor of arizona. it's my pleasure today to introduce someone who has led the fight on human trafficking for many years. it's someone i'm proud to be able to call a dear friend, someone who through her work at the mccain institute and co-chair of the arizona human trafficking council, has proven to be indispensable in the fight to end human trafficking. we're so glad that she could be here t

this weekend marks one year since mccain's death his widow, cindy mccain, sat down with our andrea mitchell for a candid conversation about his legacy and how he might have felt about washington today. >> how are you doing >> i'm doing okay. my job this year has been to make sure my kids are okay they're all at various stages of this process, but doing very well and, you know, i'm not without my weak moments. i miss him terribly. he also wouldn't want me to sit around and mope. certainly there are days i would like to have a good cry but i just pick up and keep going. >> reporter: john mccain lost his battle with brain cancer a year ago surrounded by family on their ranch listening to frank sinatra's "my way. mccain who liked nothing better than a good fight but still invited both men who defeated him to the white house to speak at his funeral >> what a better way to get a final laugh than make george and i say nice things about him to a national audience. >> reporter: barely a year earlier mccain's vote to save obamacare infuriated president trump who has been criticizing him ever since, t

a year after john mccain's death, cindy mccain takes on his life's work. >> we are in a gridlock and we're not talking. it's time to be civil and time to work together. >>> good day, everyone, i'm andrea mitchell in washington. as china in a tit for tat escalates the trade war today, leading to a reaction from president trump on twitter immediately sending the markets into a nose-dive. all this giving hope to democrats who is a rattled president, despite all the advantages of incumbency. first they have to sort themselves out and their own economic divisions. today a crowded field of challengers winnowing out again with another candidate with no chance of getting on the fall debate stage dropping out of the race. massachusetts congressman seth moulton ending his run today, saying he's not ready to endorse, but his preference pretty clear. telling "the washington post" that joe biden, quote, would make a fantastic president. he's a mentor and a friend and i am impressed by the campaign he's run so far. that's seth moulton today. most of the candidates are in san francisco today, excep

joining us now on the one-year anniversary of senator john mccain's death is his wife cindy mccain.thank you so much for talking to us. >> thank you for having me, brianna. i appreciate it. >> as i said, it's been a year since your husband died, which is unimaginable that it's been a year at this point in time. can you just give us a sense of what you miss most about him? >> oh, there are so many things i miss about him. i think most of all was his voice of reason and common sense. he exhibited that not only in his daily work life but at hoax. those are the qualities -- so many >> one of the things i noticed when i lost a parent was just sort of things i learned about myself in the wake of that, and i wonder for you, you got married when you were 25 years old, and you were with john mccain for almost four decades and i wonder what have you learned about yourself in this year since he passed away? >> well, i think the first lesson is that i can survive. losing any loved one is always traumatic, but he was such a force of nature, i've had to learn that not only will i survive but that

. >>> and one year after john mccain's death. >> our country is not well right now. >> cindy mccain's new mission. >> announcer: from abc news, it's "this week." here now, chief anchor george stephanopoulos. >>> good morning. welcome to "this week." "i alone can fix it," that signature line from 2016 pretty much sums up president trump's approach to the presidency and this week he pushed it about as far as it can. with a dizzying series of impulsive moves this week, from greenland, tax cuts on and off the table, back on again, a tax on china and the fed. that sent the stock market into a tailspin and threatened the strong economy that's been his best selling point for re-election and as we come on the air this morning, a new political threat, a potential challenge from one of his own. conservative firebrand joe walsh, a tea party congressman now a talk radio host and no stranger to controversy. once a stunch defender of president trump, he appeared on cnn this week and said this. >> if republicans, john, stay silent in the face of this guy, i don't think the country will ever forgive

so sunday is the anniversary of the death of senator mccain and starting tomorrow, the mccain familythen share them. some examples they gave me, maybe call a competitor and talk to them. maybe talk to a colleague or friend who has a different perspective that you usually avoid engaging with on issues and this is the most surprising of all. maybe call a family member you know you'll disagree with and actually listen to them. could senator mccain make our politics even for a little while a little better a year after his amazing life? >> i think that's something a lot of us can get behind. >> yeah. >> we need a lot of that. hopefully we'll see some members on capitol hill reach across the aisle. mike, thank you. we'll be reading axios a.m. in a bit. you can sign up for the newsletter at signup.axios.com. >> that does it for us on a tuesday morning. i'm yasmin vossoughian alongside ayman mohyeldin.

senator john mccain passed away, just shy of his 82nd birthday.of an aggressive form of brain cancer. >> the senator mccain often remembered as a war hero, a conservative maverick and a two-time presidential candidate. his widow, cindy mccain, wants him to be remembered for something else, though. here's part of her conversation. listen. >> there's so many things i miss about him. i think most of all was his voice of reason. >> i wonder for you, you got married when you were 25 years old and you were with john mccain for almost four decades, and i worshippnder, what have y learned about yourself in this year since he passed away? >> well, i think the first lesson is that i can survive. you know, losing any loved one is always traumatic, but he was such a force of nature. i've had to learn that i -- not only will i survive, but i can move forward. if we can convey anything that john mccain stood for on this one-year anniversary, that would be acts of civility. he was the guy on the floor that would cross the aisle. he would work with others. you kn

i was standing on that stage between john mccain and bernie. i took a selfie. i remember this day.k a selfie and some reporter took a picture of me taking a selfie and the picture went viral because it said -- woman takes selfie with john mccain and bernie. and the next day, it became viral with the words "this is and the next day, millions of people marched including in this stage. and the day after that, 6000 women signed up to run for office on on day nine when that mean-spirited muslim order came out, people spontaneously showed up at the airports. on day 100, my favorite march, the march for science. what do we want? science. when do we want it? after peer-reviewed. the day after john mccain and two other republicans joined with every single democrat to turn down that mean-spirited effort -- then you go into the fall and the first glimmers of hope in these legislative races in new jersey and virginia where these incredible candidates no one thought could win win in these tough races, including my favorite in new jersey where the legislator was up and said on the day of the wom

one year anniversary of senator john mccain's passing, and this morning his widow, cindy mccain, hasew washington post op ed entitled, my husband was a man of civility. americans can still learn from him. she writes in part, my late husband, john mccain, loved a good fight for a good cause. he believed it was right and necessary to argue about differences on issues and in governing philosophies. and as he often remarked, a fight not joined is a fight not enjoyed, but john never sacrificed civility. i think he's missed most because he understood that a country like ours, a government system like ours doesn't permit one side to have everything its way on the great questions of the day. john was a passionate partisan but he was a states man, too, and statesmen accept the necessity of cooperation, compromise and make some compromise on the challenges. the anger some americans feel for people with opposing views seems to have become more vitriolic and intense. at times, given the amplifying power of social media, our differences which are fewer and less important than the shared values th

it was with senator mccain, who i miss very much, and today is actually the anniversary of his death,ch has been a big loss for those of us who were close to john. last time i saw him at his ranch with cindy, and my husband was there, and he could not talk very well, but he pointed to a line in his book that said "there is nothing more liberating than fighting for a cause larger than yourself." and that is what he did -- [applause] sen. klobuchar: when he voted to uphold the affordable care act, and that is what he did when he made that decision to allow people to be released in front of him in that cell in vietnam that i got to stand in front of with him, and that is what he did on some of these issues like pharmaceuticals. he bucked his party. but we were not able to get that done, but we had republican votes. we had about 14 on an amendment vote that i did with senator sanders. the bill now, it is grassley-klobuchar, i think, and it is a bill that would allow for less expensive drugs to come in from canada, since in the northern states, we can see canada from our porch, right? we c

here we are saying obama outspend mccain. so as obama outspend mccain, we can actually look at the messages in the message stream of the democrats. we can see in our daily sampling as the amount of messaging went up, so to believe the claims in advance by candidate obama. what is that. a message imbalance creates a message effect. we saw across to past elections that message and balances matter. and through the 2016 election in the washington post wanted op-ed whether the social media were just disclosing the ads. late october and november of 2017. it didn't make any difference. i didn't pay any attention to that but the reason they called to ask if i read it is because they were familiar with those two arguments earlier in the book. as a result, he looked carefully at the material that had been disclosing the hearings at the end of october early november and to my surprise found a coherent theory of the electorate there. in larger amounts of messaging than we had thought were there. that's the first time hundred and tracks a

that is what we are talking about with the honest ads bill that i had with megane -- with mccain, nom is the lead republican on it. but guess who doesn't want it through? mitch mcconnell in the white house. i bring these things up because they are not presidential 20 things, i will get them done, but i know you are good citizens and you will care. so how do we win this? the number one concern for everyone. number one, we take this on with an optimistic economic agenda. i have given you my ideas. second, we take this guy on by standing around when least -- when he says racist, horrible stuff. sometimes, when he just does his normal weird stuff, you just ignore him, ok? he wants to capture the news cycle every single day. he wants us to go down the rabbit hole with him every single day. the third thing is yes, use some humor and point out how absurd he truly is. i had a high point last weekend when my tweet did better than any of his. [laughter] sen. klobuchar: yeah, and i wrote it in the parking lot in manchester outside the hotel. what it said was "what's the difference between donal

, the late senator mccain out of russia too. >> and senator mccain said that he was proud to be on thates. >> we see the president just got back from the g-7 in france. president trump while over there claiming that vladimir putin outsmarted president obama when it comes to that invasion of ukraine and crimea that you just mentioned. trump repeatedly criticizing president obama on several different subjects, repeatedly, while also saying that he then would like to invite president putin to his golf club in miami for next year's g-7 summit. we should note that russia is not officially back in the g-7, although the president has said that he would like to see that happen. what do you make of that, of him saying that it's better if russia is inside the tent than outside? >> i totally disagree, and most of the members of that organization, the g-7 don't want russia to be part of that anymore in light of, for instance, their practical annexation of crimea. i think that this all raises the questions that we asked about in our questioning of special counsel mueller when he came to capitol hill

to his infinite credit cut off a lady in one his crowds who described barack obama as an arab and mccainp and spoke of his opponent in that election as a decent man with whom he just happened to have some differences. we're now looking at a republican party that resembles something out of rome a little bit before the establishment of the roman empire and the end of democracy. >> there's another picture. you can paint some pictures with us sometimes. you know, mark, there's always this question. is the president doing this on purpose? we know in some ways he is but why? is he doing it to stoke the base, to troll the press? is it he doing to almost force democrats to constantly respond to him? i don't think he thinks about it that deeply, but that -- he always presents this dilemma for everybody that covers him or confronts him. >> i don't think it's a dilemma. >> but they can't figure out how to get him to stop. >> he's a 72-year-old man. he's set in his ways. he made a lot of money and inherited a lot of money. he's lived a life of privilege and comfort and always gotten his way by showi

it's very, very early.been thin mccain, one-year anniversary of his death is coming up.ear before the election in the summer of 2007, and he kept at it, practically with no money, practically with no staff, and wound up being the nominee. it is way too early to count anybody that i would say is in the top tier out right now. if you are a bill de blasio, go home and fix new york. >> scott, the last word. >> erica, i think there's a couple of structural issues here that have to be recognized. number one, the fragmentation of the field is what's keeping bide an float. obviously he's been pulliolling the low 30s for the race. as long as warren and sanders are splitting that segment of the democratic party, i suspect biden will continue to lead. if they say in for a long time, it enhances joe biden's ability to win if neither of them blinks in that game of socialist chicken. the other issue is, the democrats change the rules so that you have to achieve 15% of the vote in the contests in order to get any delegates, so if you're one of the campaigns that's been floating around

your point on john mccain, we will have ideological differences. how do we agree on things that impact us all. i think it separates him from trump and separates him in many ways from the democratic candidates. >> hopefully at the debate he's not just pulling on heartstrings to say the insurance is a loser. >> you're out on the road with biden, right? >> that's correct. >> if your schedule permits, come back tomorrow. >>> after the debate, trump takes millions of fema disaster for his border policies. what's next? t?y need. your turn to keep watch, limu. wake me up if you see anything.

mccain would be on the ground in hong kong waving the flags. the one tweet on that, fair correction. >> i'm with you. >> politically, i agree. this is a beltway issue. this is an issue among elites. i think the place where it can become a little built of a threat to trump is erratic natured. if there are actual damages people are feeling because of his erratic actions, that could be happening on the trade issue with china. people see the market go up and down. then when it impacts them and people see, man, four more years of this guy without having to face voters again, can we trust him on foreign policy? i think there's a certain category of republicans who don't like trump who are on the fence about what to do, who have tended to come home, that if things get back, can he lose them. i think that would be the one area where there's political possibilities. >> so lack of leadership, lack of stability, lack of proimises kept. >> and trust. >> but don't listen to us. phil rucker, thank you for spending time with us. we're always grateful to have

i do not know how republicans can listen to fox news hosts making fun of mccain either. and repeating lies about the russians involvement in our election in 2016. how can people take the word of vladimir putin over their fellow citizens? how do they take the word of vladimir putin over our intelligence agencies? it's crazy. we have to stop. and we have to take a deep breath. and we have to start governing this country again for the interest of our kids and our grandkids. that is so much more important than the political partisan battle that has been occupying us since before donald trump it became our president. , what have you been hearing from voters about the caucus [indiscernible] say i have: i would , been hearing a lot from voters in iowa who are frustrated that there has been no action by the congress in 20 years on these gun issues. i think people generally support the background checks that mitch mcconnell has not allowed to come forward but that colorado passed 20 years ago. i think that is what we need to be focused on, those background checks between now and

mitt romney couldn't raise money from small donors to john mccain couldn't raise money. max.rump has tremendous grassroots support out there. he has a 1 billion plus dollar campaign and he put 20 or $30 a campaign is the small donors to you can do lots of things so it's a brilliant plan. he gives the president a chance to communicate with those people and someone who is rich and gives $2800 they don't care but if someone gets 20 or 50 bucks they bought and so it's a brilliant move. lou: the president getting at boost in having made the decision to relent on about half of that $300 billion holding off till december 15. the market loved it and as we pointed out in point of fact these terrorist are such a sliver of a fraction of our economy and wall street is behaving as if this is an existential threat to them. maybe it is. what do you think? >> i think the critical thing here is the president needs to give us the long run. when he gets this thing corrected and gets this chinese to work out it's still going to be a hard battle. it's going to be a long-lasting, campy two years a

if you pushed harder than fbi director andrew mccain.nks in part, to his efforts, many had their lives destroyed some are accused of making false statements to federal agents. he faces life in prison in a trial that starts in november, for that crime. but according to an inspector general report, even as he was leading the effort to destroy the lives of others for align, andy mccabe was himself lying. will he get the same treatment that his victims are getting customer federal prosecutors are weighing that question right now. and how about jim comey? a lot going on. he joins us now. tom, thanks for coming on. first to the andrew mccain question. >> i don't know. you raised these other ones that were targeted. he was referred in april of last year. so he's all ready gotten special treatment. the justice department has been agonizing. this guy lied three or four times to investigators. we just received documents both under oath and not under oath. if you talk to the fbi and you lied to them, it's a crime. >> tucker: what would happen to yo

remember when meghan mccain confronted disgraced fbi agent andrew mccabe on "the view"? >> you were fired at the recommendation of the fbi. i would like to you say on national tv you were not a source for the "new york times" or any other publication considering that's our accused of lying about. ashley: apparently cnn thinks gets fired for lying is a good thing. they have hired him as a contributor. democrats love to call for president trump's impeachment. >> yes, i believe he should be impeached. >> it's not if he'll be impeached, but when. >> if we don't impeach this president he'll get re-elected. >> we are going to go in there and [bleep]. ashley: new evidence most of americans don't even want impeachment. a new report, the more illegals are arrested in this country than u.s. citizens. you can see the numbers for yourself after this. there's a company that's talked to even more real people than me: jd power. 448,134 to be exact. they answered 410 questions in 8 categories about vehicle quality. and when they were done, chevy earned more j.d. power quality awards acr

tradespeople are adopting digital technology with varying degrees of enthusiasm and at different speeds some mccain others wary we understand or we still like to have a hard copy of your form you know you're going to our kids in an expression he's getting help from some young and tech savvy people. this is what i would say many people don't know much and don't appreciate how much can be done with it. of course some business owners are into tech and forge ahead modernizing their operations such as. who runs a chain of pity series the u. turn is it was over should it should lies ation is great if the boss knows what he's doing. then the staff don't need to do all that much eventually they have to get on board and then they really like it and nothing off past colleges and universities can help with bringing high tech to manual trades and crafts students do internships in companies and promote change if they're lucky they then get offered a job. several thing is i'm not really up to speed yet i know in general terms what has to be done but we need young folk to help us with all the innovations especial

and god rest his soul, he's the new john mccain. that's what he is.and he wants to be that because maybe he harbors a desire the run again. i don't know what it is. he comes from the very, very red state that's unaffected by a lot of what's going on in california and some of these other states. you'd think he'd be a leader for conservativism and so forth. he's not. the president of the united states has to fight these people. the president of the united states stared down mexico with a 5% tariff, and the republicans are going to the media and talking about, well, we can't do this and we can't do that. meanwhile, what the hell have they done? mitch mcconnell's been there 412 years. what has he done about the border? [laughter] absolutely nothing serious. it's a big problem. and you're right, they would never do anything like this to obama. ever, ever, ever. they walk in lock step. nancy pelosi stares at one of them, they melt. they back off. kevin mccarthy stares at one of them and they laugh, quite frankly. they do whatever they want to do. so the dem

i remember john mccain. remember that debate with obama when someone went after obama that he is an arab. mccain said no, he is a fine man, a decent man, good family man. we have fundamental disagreements on policy. that's where it should be. this issue of demonizing people of color and immigrants and mexicans coming from drug countries and infestation, it is despicable, deplorable. and i would hope other members of the republican party would rise up and say something about it if there was a time, it is now. >> everybody stick around. we're going to be discussing. we're taking a quick break. be right back. ♪ the trump administration introduced a new rule that dramatically limits legal immigration into the united states. let's talk about this. it will make it harder for low income legal immigrants in the united states to stay in the united states. and it seems to be an effort by the president to go forward with w what he calls a merit based system. >> what's interesting is first of all it will have a chilling

let's talk about the mccain case a little bit. do you think he'll be indicted?do these meetings between his lawyers and federal prosecutors tell you? >> it sounds like you're obviously nearing a decision and if it was going well for him he would not need to meet with the hyatt people in the justice department. i would rather see the whole picture against him, we know the ideas about to come out with a report and bar is looking at the origination of the investigation but this is a snapshot that they could prosecute the does it have anything to do a truck. the clinton foundation and leaking and a case that was really found by the attorney general that obama picked so in terms of a one off, that you could possibly prosecute, it certainly makes sense. >> it would be one of those procedural crimes that several operatives have been indicted for including words pop up at us and michael flynn and others. but it's interesting because the big picture shows how the system failed and was crushed under its own weight. in the magnet for corruption was so profound and you say

a disdain among mccain people and republicans that this guy obama could not win.sense is we better watch these candidates, one will emerge, it will be a very some of -- competitive race. lou: quickly, epstein. the developments become more bizarre. the unlikely seems to be what is most probable here. that is there are so many questions surrounding this man's death. and what happened. it is excruciating and conspiracy theorists are having a heyday. >> critical thing for the president, president should let bill barr, fully doing the right thing here, first day out of the box, he moves the warden aside, let him run this investigation. lou: he will. >> make sure he does, don't let white house or don't let the hill have hearings on this at end of the day when they find out what within on. lou: he can't stop the hill. >> you can make sure your witnesses are not -- >> bill barr will take care of that. >> that is key. >> bill barr i is a horse. lou: only shot we got. >> thank god he is there. lou: amen. ed rollins good to see you. >> thank you. lou: up next, "new york time

>> john mccain would be flabbergasted. i think we're all sort of prepared for things we never heard before. things we don't understand. the one thing we have to be careful of, is not to allow this to become a new normal, that we just say things that really don't make any sense. and we have to work with our allies. the people he was sitting with over at the summit are people who have their soldiers shedding their blood with us to protect our freedom and democracy. and look, vladimir putin is a thug. he's going to continue to be a thug. it makes no sense to invite him back in. i couldn't disagree more strongly with the president. >> in the meantime, you have the news coming out that chris murphy and ron johnson were denied visas to enter russia, you can't ignore the juxtaposition of the president over there, praising putin, and yet he's denying entry for u.s. lawmakers. >> hey, brooke, i have this book coming out in october where i explain these things cannot be the new normal, we cannot get frustrated and ring our hands. we
