nbc hans nichols has the details on that and more. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the challenge for the president in his legal team this morning is trying to figure out some sort of strategy that can pass legal muster to include that citizenship question, but the clock is ticking. the census forms are already being printed without that question on it. before leaving washington for his golf club in new jersey, president donald trump refusing to surrender on including a citizenship question on next year's census, raising the pocket of ab executive order to do so. >> it's one of the ways we're thinking about doing it very seriously. >> is the president considering his options, his lawyers are playing for time. telling a judge on friday they know what they want to do, but not how they want to do it. and trump is interpreting last week's 5-4 supreme court ruling against the citizens ship question as a temporary setback. >> i have a lot of respect for justice roberts. he didn't like it but he said come back. essentially he said come back. >> reporter: trump's focus on th

with me from the white house is hans nichols.say, this is not as full throated a defense as president trump often gives of people accused of things. what is the white house looking for before completely coming down on one side or the other? >> appears they are doing some sort of review. that's what the president is hinting at there. acosta was part of the plea agreement which allowed epstein to spent 13 months in prison, in the county prison. cross currents, number one, it's clear he wants to run on the re-election and he thinks acosta is doing a good job. he wants to run on the jobs and economy and it's difficult to fire your secretary of labor if that is the main stay of your election. also something we've seen with numerous trump cabinet officials and that is the president likes to bunker down. they get in this bunker mentality and try to defend whoever it is that is being attacked because that is their first instinct. now, we have seen some sectors eventually part ways with the president, but not after a long, drawn out perio

. >> george will, i want to read this tweet by professor and author tom nichols.he idea that a third-party can take votes away from trump assumes that the trump vote isn't a cult and that the their votes aren't set in stone. what do you think? >> i still think that if justin amash ran as the presidential candidate of the libertarian party which on its past performance now is, i believe, eligible to be on all 50 ballots this year, go back to 2000 and the nader vote in florida, go back to 2016 and the vote for the green candidate in michigan, probably in pennsylvania and wisconsin as well, in close elections, in close states, a third-party candidate can make an enormous difference, unintended differencenader's case, for example, in florida. but the idea that this would be negligible i think mr. nichols is right that a third-party candidate isn't going to do much for the trump base. again, trump's base will not elect him president. >> all right. thank you so much, george, chris, eddie. you all make me smarter every time i'm here. >> now a different kind of breaking n

hans nichols is at the white house. hans, what do you know about this?reporter: the white house has been largely silent about the scope and size of the raids and whether or not they should be considered raids. what the president said on friday is this is a law enforcement action. now, the president put the number at the thousands, not the millions. there's been a market shift from the white house in how they're talking about this round and what happened two, three weeks ago where the white house was clearly telegraphing that they were going to do this. the president pulled back and said it was part of a deal with congress. now, they have gotten additional money thor foes detention centers all across the border there. the question is here, what's the white house's reaction going to be? are they going to celebrate this or tout this? are they going to try to couch this simply as a law enforcement action to ensure that america's borders are secure, all part of what the president wants to run and base his re-election campaign on? jo. >> jonathan allen, nation
