that moment, i will take general mcchrystal's word, for leadership.od man, a family man, trying to do what he thinks is right for the country. mr. president, you can't just read from the prompter and mouth those words. you have to show us that you mean it and take action. very easily you could have reined in the crowd, they would have followed his lead, but he is trying to have it both ways to gin up the base for the midterm elections. what else, what have we got? hot show. smerconish, it is more likely trump will have a bill clinton moment and play the saxophone on the arsenio hall show. i know the moment you're referring to. what else. give me another one. come on, guys, chop chop. you were wrong once again this week. you try so hard hoping trump is good. time to turn your back on him. everyone must for the good of the country. hey, craig, what are you watching, man? i just said to you as i said at the outset of the program that the president missed an opportunity. he should have reined in the crowd, but he spent too much time stoking that audience.

but my question is more remember michael hastings the journalist who wrote the article on general mcchrystal and i'm sure how you know how he ended his life which sounds like an attack that his car went out of control. >> lots of things are possible. i don't think we are seeing this used maliciously so one example is one of the cia leaks a few years ago talked about an assassination program that talked about taking control of cars. so we know they are thinking about it i don't know if we have evidence it's ever been used. so i do not have a definitive answer but if it look like an accident it probably is accidents happen all the time. >> so that wraps up the original round.

general mcchrystal, welcome. about leadership is skewed and wrong, explain your approach here. >> i spent a lifetime trying to learn and practice leadership, late in life i came to the realize that i really don't. as we started this study we came to the understanding that leadership is not what we think it is. it never has been. we looked at it for mythology. the famous painting that we know, he is standing in a boat on a way you would never stand in a boat even if it was on land. it looks gorgeous, and then you have a more realistic rendering what is important about the distinctions? >> the original picture, heabsu we accepted it. he is the leader and he is george washington. we say that is sort of what we expect leaders to do, but no rational person would not have done that, he would not have survived the war if he did that. that doesn't steam be kons nant with what we think about. >> you say she nervous, gripping the wheel and holding on tight in this more realistic version. >> i would say rational. >> he stil
