president is doing is very dangerous, particularly as there been reports out of the justice department, out ofc security that has said that the russians under the watch of vladimir putin basically went in to our election system and messed with our democracy. the pillar of our democracy, ou. so the bottom line is this president wants people to look at him as a maverick, look at him as someone who is going to change the tide, to clean the swamp. but he is dealing with people who are in the swamp. and when it comes to the mia, i'm gng to say thisdon. one way to unify people is to find a common enemy. and he is trying to make the press the enemy. no, he has made the press the enemy. and it's adangerous, dangerous, dangerous game. and there is going to be a loser at some point, particularly at one of these rallies where he gins the crowdand as to do sayet them, and the re that's the problem. >> hold on, matt. matt, i got to get to the break. but let me say this, and i'll get you on the other side. he needs to have an enemy. he needed an enemy with hillary clinton. he needed an enemy with mueller. he

it takes leadership not only from the oval ofce but most importantly from the oval office to build and maintain a consensus within our own country about the importance of america playing this role and to make sure thais not just bad on people on the stage but it embraces elites and non-elites. it embraces all parts of our country. to get to your question about the republican party, here is where i am injecting optimism. i would say it is still important to distinguish between the president and the party. many republicans do not really see him as a republican. he has departed from traditional core republican values and policies in fundamental ways. little this is a disguised by the tax cuts because you have seen the republican leadership rally behind the president. but if we look at the policies and attideorieatio, i still think there is a significant gap between the president and the party when it comes to international affairs. i could go through the list. but in the instance of time, i will not. take trade, for instance. the president has been vocal about trade. this is one of the fe
