not even an appearance by melania trump who later sat next to putin at dinner could help wrap things up. >> they sent in the first lady at one point to see if she could get us out of there. that didn't work either. >> reporter: both leaders so engaged neither one of them wanted to stop, according to tillerson, who described the positive chemistry. for most of the meeting, the two talked syria, the u.s. announcing a cease fire set to start sunday framed as the first indication both countries can work together there. though critics point to similar moves in the past that didn't last. on north korea, stark differences acknowledged by tillerson, with moscow just this week refusing to back tougher action against kim jong-un. though both the president and putin agreed the rogue regime should not develop nuclear weapons. >> president putin is never going to be your friend. we need to treat him with extreme caution and not read too much into a warm sense in a meeting. >> reporter: president trump also today met with the leader of the mexico, and when asked if he still wanted mexico to pay fo

three at this is about -- melania trump. this is about 45 minutes.

>> well, melania trump, our first lady, works with a designer and well-known stylist.and melania, they work together as a team and create, you know, it's more than just pretty clothes that melania's wearing. it's specific picks that are elegant and respectful to the religion or the protocol of that country. it is the 70th anniversary of christian dior and melania and he wanted to celebrate that. so stepping out in that key moment off the plane in dior which is basically part of the french vocabulary, it was a choice that i thought was smart. and i think that the french people really responded well to it. >> and tonight her selection? >> tonight her selection is a custom designed dress by pierre. and it was very elegant. it's red, white, and blue, it's bias cut. and, you know, very simple, square neckline, little bit lower neckline because it's the evening. showing some skin. and again, work together -- how they work together is pierre sketches the dress and, of course, melania then takes a look at it and then will do a fitting. it is a custom dress with her. she wore a

president clump claim that the press knew about the dinner, media outlets published photos of melania trump speaking to president putin. the german officials seated them next to each other and briefly let reporters into the room. other photos showed president trump seated across the table from the russian leader. not until yesterday we learned they had a discussion during the dinner. we're told president trump and president putin spoke through the russian leader's translator. should say interpreter, you translate written words and interpret spoken words. that administration official says president trump had an interpreter with him as well but his interpreter didn't speak russian, spoke japanese. president trump was seated next to the wife of japan's prime minister. you're supposed to talk here. the dinner came after president trump and president putin had their first face-to-face meeting. we knew about that already, lasted nearly two hours longer than scheduled. president trump pressed president putin about american's concern over russia's interference, but putin denied he did it. john robe

kate is with us, our white house reporter who covers melania trump, the first lady. kate, your reporting, as we look at the first lady was she was very frustrated with all things going on around russia and being drawn into this as part of the first family and what is going on with the president's son, donald jr. now, she is on the world stage, once again. what are you hearing? >> reporter: that's true, poppy. she was not happy about being lumped in with the drama in the west wing and she, possibly, would weigh in on staffing issues over there. a white house source who knows her thinking cold cnn she was a bit irritated about that. that is not what she's focused on. she's focused on east wing stuff, not west wing. we are seeing more of the first lady on the global stage than we have seen her back in america. we watched her last week in poland and in germany. now we are seeing her in france. she visited a hospital earlier today in paris. it's sort of interesting that we, as americans, are watching her sort of take over and shine a bit more abroad than we are seeing her

there was a moment with the first lady, melania trump, who was sitting right next to, and there's thethere, sitting right next to, coincidentally, was it? how did this happen? vladimir putin at dinner. apparently both do speak german and we know that, you know, putin has spoken german with the german chancellor. how they've communicated. has this been crafted, perhaps, in some way by the white house, that this is advantageous for the president to have his wife, the capacity of able to converse with putin and even the daughter being able to sit alongside other world leaders? >> well, i mean, it's very interesting they also sent melania trump in to kind of break up the meeting with putin. that was running observer two hours long. it was supposed to be shorter than that. so they clearly see melania trump as somebody who can kind of speak to both men, to the president, to her husband, and to vladimir putin. i thought that was fascinating. the fact they're having dinner together. yeah, i think both women are playing historic roles in the white house. ivanka a bigger role than expected and

thank you. >> my pleasure, erin. >> melania trump sent in to try to end the meeting. and the one sitting next to putin at dinner tonight. you'll see. plus, hillary clinton's campaign chairman rips into donald trump calling him a whack job president and the energy secretary on supply and demand. was it another oops moment or not? yes, nice pop toss! flag dancing? we've been there. and with free hot breakfast and a warm welcome, we'll be there for you. hampton by hilton. mmmm. mmmm. mmmm... ugh. nothing spoils a moment like heartburn. try new alka-seltzer ultra strength heartburn relief chews. it's fast, powerful relief with no chalky taste.

the president and melania trump. and they will leave later today. >>> all right. let's talk about what's happening in washington. despite claims, the white house's 2018 budget won't balance in ten years according to new analysis by the cbo. it says the budget's defense will reduce -- defense will reduce by nearly one-third, going the right direction. but well below the $16 billion surplus the white house estimates. the difference is the pace of economic growth. the white house says the policy is like tax reform and spending cuts, will spur 3% growth. however, many experts in the cbo say 3% is too optimistic. they expect the slower rate of 1.8%. why? the cbo says trump's economic plans lack the detail the cbo needs to calculate savings or costs, particularly tax reform. trillions in spending cuts are being used to reduce debt coming from programs like medicaid, food stamps, and disability insurance. >>> breaking overnight, a federal judge in hawaii loosening the restrictions in president trump's travel ban. grandparents and relatives like in-laws, aunts, and auburn

it seems to she missed both of those events but a spokesperson says melania trump used the time todayings at the hotel and she wanted to be kept updated on all the protests so she was engaged but couldn't just leave. >> she did leave and in fact we heard from secretary of state rex tillerson when he was briefing reporters and apparently the meeting was going on so long he joked that they sent melania trump in there to try to get these two gentlemen to wrap up, which was unsuccessful. >> reporter: didn't work. >> they kept talking for another hour, he said. what else -- we see the picture of her with, you know, the g20 class. what else is she up to this evening? >> reporter: so, they attended the philharmonic performance, which i believe just wrapped up, which was beethoven's ninth was on the schedule tonight and she's wearing this, like, beautiful white dress and really stands out there and then after the performance, the g20 leaders and their spouses are heading into a dinner. she'll be there for that as well so again she's stepping out on this global stage, making her mark. today's

a shot of melania trump in red right there. the president said he would hold a news conference two weeks have passed. he said it again. two more weeks have passed. what is the fundamental difference? >> thank you. that's a very important question. we didn't take the threat seriously enough. we had a policy of attrition. under the obama administration it was nibbling at the issue under people like general mcmaster, secretary mattis, we are there. not to manage an issue, like john brennan would say, but to crush, to annihilate, obliterate. we've only been in office, think about this -- >> six month. >> 24 weeks. and already with our iraqi partners have crushed the caliphate and liberated mosul. that is massive. >> on the topic of russia as things relate to donald junior's e-mails, i imagine you're not intimate with the details. do you have security clearance? >> we don't discuss that. that's not a policy. >> jared kushner still have permanent security clearance given the fact that he had failed to communicate three separate indiv

a fox news poll unfavorable opinion shows melania trump at 51%. the guy that oh, nobody likes him in america. well, he is at 47%. he is the president of the united states donald trump. mike pence also at 47%. pete, i will let you take. pete: nancy pelosi and fake tears chuck schumer at 33 and 26%. they barely add up to melania. they have a massive credibility problem. ill served by house and the senate. don't have somebody that can push back in a i think that is meaningful to americans. think about all the fake news this president deals with. the on slot of hate frankly he gets in the news media. he is at 47%. it is amazing what he has been able to do, as you pointed out all the time, he can cut straight to the american people with his own message. he doesn't have to rely on fake must. abby: shows the american people are smarter than the mainstream media gives them credit for. pete: we see it at the dinners all the time. abby: start with a fox news alert. overnight show of force, a pair of us b-1 bombers. dropping dummy bombs on a target with sout

where they were discussing stories that happened that week and brought up the idea of reporting on melania trump slapping donald trump's hand away and pecker, who was on a conference call at the time, just said oh, i didn't see that, i didn't see that, and everyone got the message, just keep moving along, this is not a story they're going to run with. >> right. i think all of us who follow the news were quite aware of that viral video where melania trump slapped her husband's hand away. but at this meeting, david pecker said he wasn't aware of it. he said it twice. and his subordinates got the message that this was not going to be in "the enquirer." that is completely consistent how "the enquirer" has covered trump for the last two years. sit always heroic and bathing him in this glow of success. and similarly, his coverage of trump's rivals, especially hillary clinton, has been totally savage. >> just be clear, based on your reporting, does president trump have the ability to kill a story in "the national enquirer?" in the president's own tweet today responding to this, he did seem to say or im

there was actually a third meeting during this official dinner, where putin was seated next to melania trump. he said president trump walked over there for a talk, that it lasted for an hour and that trump relied on putin's translator during tha now the white house confirmed that meeting did take place, but they're pushing back on the idea that it was hidden in any way. one official said the two men spoke only briefly which brings us back to the president's tweets. trump tweeted that the press knew about the dinner, which is true, but he's also calling the story fake news, which it's not. yes, the dinner was public, but the one on one meeting wasn't. and there are still questions about the length and content of that meeting. now because the white house hasn't always been forthcoming when it comes to sharing details about meetings, particularly in those involving russian officials it doesn't look like those questions are going to go away anytime soon. >> yeah, the reporter who broke this saying they actually met privately for an hour for that meeting. we'll see what we hear from the white hou

they spoke so long that rex tillerson said melania trump was sent in to break it up. >> it was only supposedut 35 minutes. but president trump and putin had so much to say, their meeting went on and on for a full two hours and 16 minutes. the cameras allowed in briefly to witness that high stakes face-to-face. president trump reaching out to shake the hand of man accused of meddling in america's election. there was smiling and small talk before they got down to business. there was even a back pat. but even before president trump brought up russia's meddling, he said this. >> president putin and i have been discussing various things, it's going very well. we've had some very, very good talks. we look forward to a lot of things happening. with russia and the united states. it's an honor to be with you. >> and vladimir putin returned the compliment saying he was pleased to meet president trump, hoping their first meeting would have quote positive results. just 24 hours earlier, the president said election meddling could have been russia. it could have been others. but in the doors closed, the w
