lee. let's talk more about the memo from peter navarro.irst coming january 29th, warning of a possible pandemic. he, by the way, wrote another one february 23rd, where his concerns were raised even further. he's a trade adviser to the president. what was his particular interest and concern here? >> reporter: well, look, willie, we know that he has had an interest in pandemics. he's -- when you talk to some folks inside the white house, they'll say he is inserting himself in an issue he doesn't know that much about. that said, we also know that his memo that's reported by the "new york times" came at a time when the president was basically saying that everything was fine, that this wasn't an issue, and at a time when there were other warnings, whether coming from the intelligence community or elsewhere, that this was a real issue and something the president needed to pay attention to. one of the questions that we don't know is whether this memo actually got to the president at the time that it was being circulated. i think that's something

lee, your fellow white house correspondents, have confirmed the reporting from jonathan swan over the weekend of this fight, this argument between reporting of jonathan swann over the week between the fight by peter navarro and dr. fauci and the medical team as to whether hydroxychloroquine is federally tested not just anecdotally efficacious but whether it's scientifically proved and tested? >> yeah, andrea, this is a fixation of president of the united states trump for the last couple of days. he's really looking for some sort of magical solution that could cure people and prevent the death toll that is expected by the experts. and he's wanting the fda and others in the medical profession to endorse this drug that he believes based on the anecdote evidence presented by his friends as well as peter navarro, one of the top white house advisers that it can work. of course, the science has shown that it's not tested by the fda and dr. fauci has been days agreeing with president trump. it was interesting when jeremy diamond, a cnn reporter, actually asked for dr. fauci to give his medical opinion, his expert take on the drug. mr. trump shut off the question and said you do not have to answer it. he

nonetheless in my judgment, steve had lee and peter fever and meghan, offer a compelling defense of the process, in their essay. they make to really important points, they say that the process gave the president most of all, the option that he wanted. and secondly, the big point that they make, is that even more importantly, the process enabled the president to forge a consensus among top officials. which was no easy accomplishment. of course as you heard, richard is not convinced, and what he does in the volume, in a very systematic way, is to compare pushes national security council, to the process, and richard claims to be succinct, richard claims that president bush, was not sufficiently involved in the inception of the process, that the process was belated, that it was stovepipe, or siloed, until dearly the nearly the very end, and that the outcome was pre-determined. what is interesting is that steve hardly and peter and megan do not really direct those criticisms. and they don't say that there process is a model, that it is textbook model, they clearly don't make the claim that t
