we have a guest who traveled with michelle obama. back to a piece written about michelle obama after his term. just because something appears trivial does not mean it is any less powerful as a means of persuasion and outreach. in some ways it's very triviality. the fact that everyone could talk about it, dissect it, imitate it makes fashion the most potentially viral item in the subliminal political toolbox. what do you make of what she wore? it's confounding to me to think this was an accident. >> the two questions everyone has been talking about this week is why did melania wear that and what was she thinking? it doesn't get more transparent that. she wore her heart on her back. this is how she feels about what we are not sure. was this a message to her husband, was this a somessage t the press like her husband said it was. we're not certain but what we are certain of, this was a pr nightmare. i don't know how she managed to leave the white house in this jacket. where were her handlers? where were her people? yes, she may only have

i don't believe this would have happened to michelle obama. >> maybe not to michelle obama but definitelyry clinton. >> sean: let's talk about michelle obama. >> they dogged her, her entire career. there was a cnbc reporter that tweeted -- >> i am proud of my country. >> [overlapping talking]. >> sean: do you think this would have happened to michelle obama? >> no. >> [overlapping talking]. >> she would have given up a head's up going in surgery and kept us updated. melania trump is a private person. i respect that about her. >> sean: what they said was vicious, vile and horrible. she just had an operation. and she had been seen publicly. >> the only thing missing is the media's credibility. think about how good things have to be going in the country for the media to fuss over where melania trump is. isis is missing. report on that. and peter strzok. where is peter strzok? they haven't had a good week, the media. >> sean: you need a good come back jessica? >> i stayed up until 2:30 in the morning to be with you guys. >> sean: for the first time ever it's jessic's world. >> trump is right.

michelle obama, they go low, we go high.ot of liberals are saying that's not working for me anymore. you guys need to step up and deliver something that makes us feel like you're representing us in this epic clash between donald trump's america and their america. they're not seeing that. that's why we're getting this grass roots rage out there. >> seems like it's a philosophical question. seems like it's a strategic question. they go low, we go high and michelle obama when she said that at the democratic convention, she was describing donald trump and how to respond to him. was that a tactical argument she was making that no longer applies because donald trump won so it's not a good tactic or was she describing a principle there that you should stand by even if your side loses an election. >> this is why the office of the presidency matters so much. the country does take a step from the president. the president should set the tone for the rest of the country. he has set the tone but the tone is aggressive. one that is -- one

well, michelle obama has just retweeted that with one line -- sometimes truth transcends party. this story and will continue to be throughout the day here on msnbc. >>> hillary clinton, meantime, receiving an award, just spoke moments ago. >> when it comes to conflict, when women are seated at a table, they are more likely to reach peace agreements and those agreements are more lasting. we have an urgent responsibility to stand up to the human rights for girls here and around the world. just last week the administration announced that they will not provide asylum to survivors of domestic violence who seek refuge in the united states when their own countries fail to protect them. meanwhile, what's happening to families at the border is horrific. nursing infants being ripped away from their mothers. parents being told their toddlers are being taken to bathe or play, only to realize hours later they aren't coming back. children incarcerated in warehouses and, according to one account, kept in cages. this is a moral and humanitarian crisis. every one of us who's ever been a parent o

michelle obama was very professional. she, of course, was a trained lawyer and a hospital executive. she had pretty high standards for her staff. i remember listening to a podcast about somebody who is working in the obama administration, and said, "if you were out on a state visit somewhere, you were working. if you were dancing in the conga line, you were working." she was, i think, pretty strict and ran a tight ship, from what i heard. that's a great point. last question. >> this sort of adds onto the question and comments about melania, and mrs. obama, and also somebody asked about other countries. i believe tony blair's wife was a high-powered lawyer and continued to do that. my question is how you would picture in america, either a president, a male president, whose wife is a corporate lawyer or corporate president, or vice versa, a female president whose husband has his own life, and kind of said, like melania, if you want to be president, that's great, i will come and visit. i have got my life. how do you think th

was there any reaction to laura bush and michelle obama and the wall street journal and republicans inongress all sort of failing to follow donald trump down the rabbit hole of his own delusions? >> you're right in that they see it as a story. they view a lot of these things as political public relations issues. is he winning, is he losing. because that's how the president sees so much of this stuff. he's watching the coverage. he's been upset with some of the criticism. his son donald trump jr. cancelled on a fund-raiser that he was going to be having next week with george p. bush because of the tension between the bush family and the trump operation over this policy issue. and they're frustrated by the criticism out there. but again, they're digging in, they're doubling down. they feel like any time they're talking about immigration, it's a winning political issue for president trump, because it's what he campaigned on. and there are really firm beliefs inside the west wing that they need to follow through and continue enforcing this policy and make congress be the ones to change the

you would go after the first black president to demean and malign him and what you said about michelle obama, as a black woman, you are right. we are very upset. talking about narcissism, what about this narcissistic person in the white house now? that's not narcissism? the only reason you're on c-span . offended that you have this person when we have --ican-americans philadelphia eagles. why don't you have some of the eagles on this morning? think as a black personk u would realize just because someone has been convicted of a crime does not necessarily mean they are guilty or that they've received equitable and fair treatment. is criminal justice system far from equitable not just in a racial sense but in a political sense. to give an example, rosie o'donnell,he comedian, admitted she had violated campaign-finance law five times in five separate jurisdictions. in theory, five u.s. attorneys could file charges against her today but there is no talk of her being charged because there is no corruption involved in her case. rosie goes if i gave too much money give me the money back and i would

i start with lou hoover and end with michelle obama. betty ford once said becoming first lady is like being thrown into a river without knowing how to swim. i think there is definitely some truth to that statement. youi will also share with six conclusions or six things i have learned about the first lady's role. how much freedom does she have role for herself? what are the rules she must follow? what must she do, what must she not to? you are welcome to disagree with those conclusions. you can tell me about it afterwards. we are here to celebrate betty ford on what would have been her 100 birthday. to style back for a second 1918. the year betty ford was born. what was going on in 1918? 41, fortune cookies were invented that year. note, inmore important 1918, woodrow wilson ventured to capitol hill. we were in the midst of world war i. a quest to make the world safe for democracy. wilson's mission on this particular trip to congress was to ask them to ratify the women's suffrage amendment. he said it was vital to the winning of the war

we would be alarmed if michelle obama wore this. what is going on?mp is the polar opposite of her husband. she doesn't like the spotlight. she didn't wear the jacket in the facility. that was very obvious and intentional. at the facility it was about the children. she made the story of the day about her. no matter how much ranting was going on in that room. >> i find it funny that some supporters are saying this is ridiculous that people are focusing on the message. to a.b.'s point, if michelle obama had worn a jacket with a sign on the back of it, you know, on a trip that was supposed to be about caring and said i don't care, people's heads would have exploded. there is this double standard. almost like one of these, on 24, you see a hostage video when people are blinking a secret message. you can't ignore when the first lady of the united states is wearing a sign on her back. >> or making a platform of be best. it is also an incredibly unnecessary juvenile dramatic move. >> like high school. >> caught up in the drama by her and her husband. she did

i remember reporting when michelle obama because all these schoolgirls we re obama because all theseirls were weeping and joy because she was so were weeping and joy because she was so extraordinary in the way that she touched them emotionally. and maybe she will be great at it, who knows? but it seems too similar for comfort, i think. it but it seems too similar for comfort, ithink. it will help but it seems too similar for comfort, i think. it will help to soften the image of the trump white house but the trip will be overshadowed by what donald trump does upstairs, controversy is never terribly far away so it is a bit of a good cop bad cop thing. terribly far away so it is a bit of a good cop bad cop thingm terribly far away so it is a bit of a good cop bad cop thing. it is also friday the 13th. well spotted. let me take you to the metro for the shock story of the day. a great time, on the front page in the bad page from chance to chomps. well. total media saying don't mention the va are. lots of heinz. are you in a state of shock this afternoon?” va are. lots of heinz. are you in

michelle obama's staff and melania's staff didn't have that rappaport.ot of his language hurt her and made her job more difficult. >> thank you so much for being here. how does the first lady reconcile her mission with the president's words? >> well, i think it's difficult, ses specially in a situation like this where the first lady's own spokeoman sometimes contra ducts what the president says. we have different messages out of the white house. melania wears a jacket with a message of apathy to visit the migrant children. her spokesperson says it's a jacket, no hidden message. afterwards, her husband undermines that and says that is directed at the fake news media. that's what she doesn't care about. that's what she's trying to say. is it a thing or not a thing? was she trying to send a message or not? it's difficult for her, as a woman who doesn't say much, who is private, mysterious, to try to compete in a situation where her husband is extremely outspoken and extremely upredictable and has this platform on twitter. she is having trouble making her vo

but even michelle obama jokes about it being a prison. it's a difficult job, and so i wouldn't be surprised if melania trump wanted time in the hospital to have privacy, quite frankly. you know, it's not an easy job. in this white house it's especially difficult. she didn't want this position. but i will say she's savvier than people think. she reads what's written, a lot of what's written about her and her family. and in my reporting for the book it turns out she was actually instrumental in picking out vice president pence, and she said we need a clean vp. >> what did she want in a vice president? >> someone who didn't have all the baggage her husband had. she was very smart in ways her husband wasn't. he had michael flynn on his list of vice presidential possibilities. it terrified his lead lawyer. the baggage michael flynn had was obvious. but she believed that someone like chris christie or newt gingrich came with too much. hi had a surplus of that already. >> there was already enough drama around him. he didn't need more. we saw vic

. >> so when michelle obama at the democratic national convention, well, let me play it. i'm jumping ahead of the control room but let's just hear again what michelle obama had to say. >> remember this, when they go low, we go -- >> high. >> yes we do. >> i had that on a t-shirt. hillary clinton said that during the campaign. donald trump is the president so perhaps we need different tactics now and we need to be more forceful in pushing back against this administration. no one is calling for client but all we're saying is engage in civil disobedience and we have done it throughout history. this is not completely unprecedented. we interned the japanese, we had g jim crow and slavery in this country. all of this is injustice against certain marginalized communities and as people of privilege not among those community wes have the ability to stand up against that. that's all i'm saying. >> as i'm taking both sides as i often do i would go even a step further that many of the people effected by this cannot stabdndp for themselves. they don't speak the language. they're babie

to take a well educated, beautiful woman like valerie jarrett, which they did similar to michelle obamand president obama, and equate them with monkeys, is not acceptable and we cannot tolerate it. when you have a president that started his political career on birtherism saying that he's not one of us, when he did everything he could to do dog whistling around this issue of race, people like roseanne feel they're empowered. well, they got the memo today you're not empowered, people are not going to take it. >> i wonder if you agree. do you feel like this president has set a tone that has made people feel increasingly empowered to say those kind of things? >> this is what i think, chris. i think tone does start at the top. we like to look up to our president and feel as though he regrets the values of our country, but i also think every individual citizen has a responsibility, too, and it's up to all of us to push back. our government will only be as good as we make it be. and as reverend always taught me, you have to be -- people on the inside have to push hard and people on the outside

the fact that all four living first ladies, so roslyn carter, hillary clinton, laura bush and michelle obamat cruel and immoral and a shame for our country. so how significant was that and do you think that she was motivated by them being so vocal? >> well, she did come out first, her spokeswoman did come out and say that she was heartbroken about these family separations but she was urging congress to do something about it and that was even before laura bush's op-ed. but yes, i mean i think this is something she couldn't avoid confronting as an immigrant herself, as a mother who always prioritizes their son. it was something she couldn't avoid doing. i think it's also important to know that it was 100% her idea and she went to her husband and said i'm going to do this. and that says a lot about her and how willful and strong she is really. >> so what about the jacket then? look, it was a picture of her going would have been all we were talking about, being there, meeting with the people there. instead she walks on the plane with this.
