white house. president obama at martha's vineyard. eisenhower at camp david. james k. left the office, and the job nearly killed him. the point is presidents need time away. but it is only fair to point out this president was a harsh critic of his predecessor for golfing and taking a vacation. when it was president obama doing it, civilian trump went after him for it. so as you watch this, just remember this president has taken almost twice as much time off as the man he loved to criticize on the campaign trail. >> obama, it was reported today, played 250 rounds of golf. everything is executive order, because he doesn't have enough time, because he's playing so much golf. obama ought to get off the golf course and get down there. i'm going to be working for you, i'm not going to have time to play golf. he played more golf last year than tiger woods. this guy plays more golf than people on the pga tour. i love golf, but i don't have time. if i were in the white house, i don't think i would ever see dural again. if i win this, i'm not going to play much golf. i wouldn't

guest: for eight years i was president obama chief house-- chief white house photographer. the role is to document the presidency for history and what that means depends on the photographer and the presidents and in this case president obama understood the role of truly visually documenting his presidency, so he gave me access to pre-match everything and so i think i was able to create an archive of photographs that will live in perpetuity at the national archives. host: how long has the president had a photographer like that? guest: i think the job really first to cold during the kennedy administration. kennedy had to military photographers assigned it to the white house, but then when lbj came in and hired this guy, a civilian who really was the first one to document for history everything that johnson did and he set the bar so high that i think everyone of us have been trying to reach his level ever since. host: how do you get a gig like that? guest: i think it's different for each white house photographer. for me, i got to meet then the senator obama, actually his first

white house photographer. for me i got to meet then-senator obama, his first day the senate. i was work for the "chicago tribune," his homedown newspaper. was based in d.c., and got this assignment to document his first year in the senate. so, i got to know him. he got to know me. he liked my pictures. he liked the way i worked. i usually am a small footprint, try not to disturb what was taking place. so when he was elected president, he asked me to become his white house photographer. >> host: how many pictures in the eight years did you take of president obama? >> guest: what would your guess be? >> host: i kind of know. >> guest: oh. idon't know if i would have had a guess. probably would have said 300,000 4 , hundred thousand. >> guest: just under two million. when you add it up, you know, was there sometimes seven days a week, and it's not as many pictures as it really sounds. two million is a lot but it is over eight years, and it is over for the most part almost 360 days a year. so, -- >> host: what kind of clearance do you have to have? >> guest: top secret clears so

you were part of the conversation in the obama white house.iority, there were many other things going on, to what extent do you think it is fair to say the north korean was pushed onto the back burner under obama? i would say the obama administration took several runs at an effort to negotiate with north korea and they all ended unhappily. the first run ended after the sinking of a south korean vessel. then the second ended after a league date agreement in february 2012, where the us provided humanitarian assistance and the north koreans agreed to suspend testing and freeze their nuclear programme but then kim jong—un violated the agreement three weeks after it was done. so the conclusion was there was no valley in talking to north korea until more luggage was built up. but the missile testing continued and unchecked ? you have seen two processes happening at the same time. kimjong—un has has accelerated his testing programme and the sanctions have begun to build up. you mentioned the likelihood of reverting to the diplomatic to approach, you

i do not think the republicans ever heard that out of an obama white house. host: and there was a change of leadership with republicans in both the house and senate now and the white house. what does that mean as far as tax reform and their desire to see that happen? what lessons can they learn them your time in office? a verypedro, you have different environment today than you did when i was there. the republicans are far more divided, and it is very, very difficult to get people together on difficult issues. i think tax reform is going to be very difficult, just as health care reform has been difficult. i felt, when i was chairman there, that we needed to find an answer to health care, and i carefully evaluated it. a study foro to do gao came back after a year and said we cannot handle it. is the most daunting issue facing this country for the next 20 years. host: what do you think about the republican approach you saw over the last few weeks and months? guest: i thought that, unfortunately, it was not cohesive. but on the other hand, the interest in variou

significant shift in policy, the most striking thing about it is the sense of continuity with the obama whitejor policy announcement has come, this is donald trump's war in afghanistan not barack obama's, not the generals'. now he has ownership of something he never wanted to buy. suspect in that speech, president trump declared there would be more onus on the afghan government to perform better, in civilian and military terms. but the afghan government barely controls just over half of all the districts in afghanistan, and the taliban are gaining ground. it's estimated 31 afghan security force soldiers are being killed every day — along with civilian deaths. from kabul, here's secundar kermani. this is the kabul military training centre, one of the largest of its kind in afghanistan. in a few months many of the young men here will be on the front lines of the fight against the taliban. for the past two and a half years it's been afghan soldiers, as opposed to international forces, that have taken the lead on the battlefield. there's no doubt that they've sacrificed a lot, thousands upon thou

whites are the racists. i made this comment when president obama was elected. if the whites are the majority and everyone else is the minority, who elected obama? obviously the white man did with the black man and whoever. and then he got elected twice. say allody to sit and white people, even half of what people, even a third of white people are racist in america today, i find that so ludicrous. i cannot understand how anybody can tell you that. there's enough hate to go around for everybody. there's enough hate groups. how about all human lives matter? --look out for cats and dogs peta is probably having a fit right now, but human lives matter. that is my comment. thank you. host: old fort, tennessee. on the republican line, we have bob. caller: yes, i would just like to say mr. woodson hit it exactly on the nail. if you had more like-minded people like him, i believe the problem would be solved. it somehow trump can use this man somehow -- i know he is a smart man. this is what i tell people. if you keep bringing up the past , when do you get to the point? wh

significant shift in policy, the most striking thing about it is the sense of continuity with the obama whiteg. now that this major policy announcement has come on this is donald trump's war in afghanistan. not barack obama's, not the generals'. he now has ownership of something he never wanted to buy. jon sopel, bbc news, washington. live now to secunder kermani, who's in the afghan capital, kabul, for us now. president trump says he is sending more troops. what has been the response? the afghan president ashraf kearney has welcomed the announcement. he said that it shows that america would stand with afghanistan until the end. security in afghanistan has been deteriorating. the government here only controls about 60% of the country, and there had been fears that if president trump had ordered a complete withdrawal of american forces, that would have been in another boost for the taliban. mr trump's comments on pakistan and his tough stance on pakistan is another thing that has gone down well here. afg ha n thing that has gone down well here. afghan security services have long claimed that p

i'm certain that there were factions in the obama white house. know there were factions in the bush white house who didn't get along, thought differently about policies or billion procedures or ploechs that they thought the president should take. but it's the chief's job to both attach down the leaking about all of that so that you keep it inside so it's not playing out on our front pages or on your broadcast and as best they can to say, look, if you've got a problem, if one farther part of a faction has a problem with another, jared with steve bannon or vice versa, come to me and we can battle it out internally. because the thing that's been so devastating for this white house is seeing it all over the news. >> yeah. if you can just stay with us. i want to bring back in the panel. it is interesting for months the white house has been saying everything is running incredibly smoothel. general kelly is an acknowledgment that that has not been the case. that's not truthful. do you think this is going to last? >> there's clearly a new cher rif in tow

this man is trying to do the old playbook that may have wed with the obama white house but it will notork with the trump white house. we'll put a stopth this and protect this nation. judge jeanine: that's comforting to hear. but one of the things that concerns me, with iran, if we have intelligence failures, it's much tougher to assess when they are going to start coming at us because of the fact they are hidden away on military bases that are inaccessible to inspection. give me some peace there. >> iran is at the top of the list of our priorities along with north korea. one of the things we are looking at very hard is the disastrous iran deal. it facilitated iran. it didn't stop the nuclear aquestion significances, it just slowed it down. the sunset clause. but the president has maintained his stance. this is a bad deal it's not good for american national security and we are doing a ground-up review of our iranian strategy and the president is adamant. this is not a good deal for america. judge jeanine: what's it like with general kelly in the west wing? >> superb. yesterday morning h

should someone who spews that hatred really have been invited to obama's white house?here was the media's outrage then? he was praised by the president at the time, president obama, there's the issue of leftists destroying public property and tearing down monuments like what we saw happen in durham, north carolina, this week. the left, there up in arms over president trump asking where america should draw a line when it comes to removing these monuments. people can agree with what they think these statues represent. they can have honest disagreement. they don't have a right to destroy property, they don't have a right to be violent, we have a political process for that. let local municipalities decide. if the left is so upset over confederate monuments, maybe they should feel the same way about displays that honor racist democrats we just told you about. take a look at this statue, robert byrd of the former klansman in the west virginia state capitol. democrats now think it needs to be taken down? according to a local west virginia website there are at least 56 buildin

when obama got into the white house, everyone thought america was turning a corner and actually a lotspeak to feel that racism at worst when president obama entered the white house. you can't divorce it from what is happening in any country and where they have been periods of progress on the racial divide it tends to be because the rising tide of the economy has lifted all ships. but they have full employment. yes, but i think it is the question of how much people earn in theirjobs, they may be employed, but whether they feel they are making economic progress or whether they feel their living standards are being eroded. i think that is an issue for a lot of countries, as we know. so in the 19605 we saw p i’og re55 know. so in the 19605 we saw progress on this issue in the united states, i think there was some p i’og re55 states, i think there was some progress in the economic good times of the late 19805 and 19905 in the united states, under obama a little bit, but we are in a period where the economy is what it is in the united states. there is full employment, but a lot of people fe

what about the 50 plus visits that one of the nation's biggest anti-semites made to obama's white housewouldn't the concern about bigoted media calling out obama for inviting this man, that a local jewish leader accused of formulating the crown heights right. one with the media condemning these kinds of things. these are the kinds of double standards that try people like donald trump crazy, and i don't blame him. >> sean: i will give you the final work tonight, what you think you might >> if donald trump really is this white supremacist why did he go campaign in black neighborhoods last fall he spoke in a black church, a school setting in cleveland, 8% of the black vote, that's one-third more than mitt romney did, who got 6%. he's really dedicated his presidency to school choice, to expanding options for black families to send their kids some are they actually might learn something. despite all these claims by the left that he's away to premises, here's a republican who who is actually reached out for black support and gotten it. >> sean: thank you very much. certainly the country needs

where president trump went on the attack of obama for taking vacations. and he leaves the whiteuse on multiple weekends. here's what's interesting when you talk about the lazy boy cover, is how uncurious about using the awesome power of the presidency to make a difference in the country. when trump leaves the white house, he has yet to go west of the mississippi, except i think for one trip to iowa. in six months in office. his weekend trips are to his homes. his comfort factor is going from the white house to a trump property, to a trump property, to a trump golf course. so think how insulated already president trump is just from sampling the riches of america that he could on his travel. can you even imagine him taking a walk in a national park? >> for example, maybe what would have if he actually went to the middle east and met with a muslim country, a jewish country, a christian -- wait a minute. he's already done that. >> jack, i'm not arguing with you that he's done some foreign trips. i'm talking about he criticizes other people about vacations. and he takes them himself.

because there were no major issues when it comes to voting but there were some officials in the obama white house that felt as though the fake news press by russia actually worked in their favor. >> boris, thank you so much. we will check back with you. now to matthew chance. coming to us from moscow. former ambassador kislyak says he never discussed sanctions if h in his meeting with michael flynn and had even been told specifically by the kremlin not to, so what exactly is kislyak saying about what was discussed? >> well, first of all, this is the first time sergey kislyak has spoken out about his series of meetings that he had with michael flynn and others as well in the trump team since he left his post as russian ambassador to washington just a few weeks ago, really, he just arrived here very recently late last month. he's gone on russian state television, where he was questioned about the nature of his contact with members of the trump team, particularly michael flynn, who of course resigned after just 23 days as national security adviser after failing to fully disclose the full conte

we just saw former obama administration officials and the trump white house sees this as a big problemthe leaks have never been this bad. it is a being made out a priority by both sides? >> trish: i think that's what they are trying to convey. why they are hitting the sunday shows. you see general kelly himself is we have learned through sources that he has been cracking down on everybody there. you see rod rosenstein essentially trying to say, we are taking this very seriously, they have to, and this is a message or they are trying to communicate in washington right now, guys, knock it off, it is inappropriate and wrong. harris, you think about the ways to get the stories out in these days. in the old days you had a few trusted news organizations. now you have anybody who is willing to publish anything on twitter or online, and there is trafficking and a whole lot more rumors, innuendos, et cetera that is not responsible journalism. there are many, many paths to get the points out there. >> harris: when it pans into the organizations that we all agree should be legitimate, we have to

house, and i remember hearing time and again that you can walk and chew gum at the same time in the obama whitemping more rain. the flooding, we're in the middle of it there on the gulf coast. should the white house have postponed this pivot to tax reform? >> that's a good question. i would say if i were advising them, i would say yes, because the president's focus should be on harvey. he should be communicating mainly about harvey. what he is saying this week when congress is not back is not changing the momentum for tax reform. congress isn't even in washington at this point in time. >> what do you think, alice? if congress isn't here, is this something that he might have been better just waiting a few days, waiting a week or so for? >> if he hadn't gone to texas yesterday, i would say yes, postpone it. but going to texas yesterday and showing his support and reiterating that the federal government is here to help you, that was critical. look, we have the federal, state and local units working together to get the help that is needed. it's not going away, this will be an ongoing effort, but wa

we saw the obama white house do things like this.ifference is that the president, president trump and his aides, tried to delegitimize the news media by calling it fake pup see them putting on something that looks like a news cast it makes you wonder about the broader strategy. >> and is this funded or a propaganda tool or what? >> seems like it's campaign funded. hoping to get dayletail details. coming from his facebook page and appears to be a part of his re-election campaign. filled out paperwork for re-election almost an soon as elected. part of a technicality and also to raise money and so on. the fake news cast she's doing, the tone is, of course, very pro-trump. look at one part of it about the economy. >> the unemployment rate is at a 16-year low and consumer confidence is at a 16-year high. all while the dow jones continues to break records. president trump has clearly steered the economy back in the right direction. >> the tone there is that the president's urn turned things around. most economists say trump is building on

and say white and obama would look back and say medium. look, you know, if all these times they put a toll on him and if you look at those pictures he is grayer on top but he carried himself through his presidency with a lot of calm toys and very different from other politicians who are more expressive and he rarely rushed into decisions and sometimes to a fault. he sat alone at the white house late at night reading briefing papers or playing words with friends after his wife and daughters had gone to bed and he was very disciplined guy. the only indulgence he permitted himself was a handful of almonds. in fact, his chef joked to my colleague and said that he only allowed himself seven almonds, not six, not 87 almonds. and i became a running joke. sometimes he did have six, he denied it. it tells us something that that was the joke that his own chef and his wife, by the way, used to make. i think it was a humbling journey for him. what started off as confidence seem to many it was hubris in a startup promisi

we saw this with the obama white house, bush white house, clinton white house, a level of creative tension. the white house, joe biden didn't always agree with barak obama did. guy marriage being a prominent example. so this happens. but when you have had a staff telling a cabinet secretary to sort of be quiet, and by the way, diplomacy in military. >> spoichdel they're saying diplomacy is supposed to be what you would like to exhaust before you go to -- >> rate. exactly. >> one would think you would be at the tip of the spear. >> you would think they would work together. and again, don't under estimate. this is a staff, right. there's ranks within the white house. a cabinet official shoulden typically be told what to do by a staff or a staff wouldn't do that. but this is trump. this is trump as world. you do and you say kind of what you want, and he likes the fight it out. >> and he likes it to be in public. i mean, cory, you know, here is another thing. so you have that sort of shocking thing happening between gorka and rex tillerson. up then have the president who has been roundel criti
