(steve) a live look outside at san francisco tonight.eekend is here. meteorologist lawrence karnow is here with what to expect. lawrence karnow: it was another hot day inland today with highs in the 100s. it is looking mostly clear tonight as high pressure sits overhead. if we do see fog it will only be very patchy at the coast. you can see on the satellite picture the big ridge building out of the desert southwest and bringing the hot air back into california. there's even some monsoonal moisture and showers in the southern sierra and desert. that ridge will weaken slightly over the weekend to slowly cool temperatures. it will remain hot in the central valley with highs well over 100 there. there will be 80s in los angeles and san diego. it will be beautiful in lake tahoe too with mostly sunny skies and temperatures in the upper 80s. you can see a few patches of fog trying to form near the coast on our forecast model but it should otherwise remain clear. highs tomorrow will still be in the 90's to low 100s well inland tomorrow, 70s and

steve schmidt, might that be the biggest turf grab that we see? >> well, lawrence, i don't often disagree with you on these questions of process and analysis. but certainly i think it's the case that it's not possible that general kelly could be any more ignorant of these things than reince priebus was. he had no idea how to build coalitions, how to deal with congress, that you have the interior secretary illegally threatening the senior senator from the state of alaska, and across the board on all sorts of different issues. i mean to your last segment on the show, we're going to know very quickly whether general kelly will have any effective control in the white house. and i do think that, you know, for partisans watching, general kelly is a great american, served his entire life in service to the country. he lost a son in the iraq war. but will general kelly tolerate a scaramucci in the west wing of the white house? and for sure a life-long u.s. marine corps officer has to be completely revolted by the language, by the disposition of scaramucci

steve schmidt, msnbc contributor on the phone with me now. steve, i know you're still very much plugged into republican surrender circles. how is this played out? is this something that traditional republicans are cheering? do they see this perhaps as an opportunity? or is this just more cause for concern? >> unless your head is filled with rocks, when you look at this white house, sean spicer is not the problem. if you look at it from a political message. sean spicer is not the reason that the president's approval numbers are at at 36%. sean spicer is not the reason, you know, that republicans will face danger in the midterm elections with regard to their house majority. and i think people look at sean spicer, and they say, this is someone who built up a reputation in washington for integrity over a long career. someone who is a naval reserve officer, and people watched it smash within six months and a day of going to work for donald trump. and so when the administration goes out and tries to recruit people for these types of jobs, it's goin

schmidt, you're going to get the first question because you cover justice and then some. i suppose you're getting asked this a lot. it may be unanswerable. is sessions safe? if so, for how long? >> well, i think at least for now, he looks like he is safe. it looks like the folks around the president were able to convince him that this would be a very, very bad thing to do. i think the president has seen that he, the huge fallout from the comey firing and the impact of that. and i think that he's afraid of what could happen, you know, certainly the people around him are afraid of what could happen if he were to fire sessions and implications of that. i think there's a real fear that the republican congress which has largely supported him may actually back off that support and may create some problems for the president. >> michael say nothing about the fact that it would match the story line investigators are trying to prove. >> well, that is true. i mean, the question here is whether, you know, as we've seen with comey, the question is was the president trying to obstruct

steve schmidt, what do you think? >> well, look, i think that certainly it's the case that this white house and the west wing has functioned some like sort of latter day zoo. i have no doubt about general kelly's ability to instill the appropriate level of fear and discipline in people who badly need a dose of both. but the issue that's causing chaos globally, in the country that has taken the president a record low -- approval numbers is not a staff issue. it's a president issue. and will the general be able to control the worst impulses of the president? i mean, if you think about it. for a president of the united states to go give a speech to the boy scout jamboree and be rebuked by the boy scouts for the inappropriateness. >> then on friday -- when he went to give the speech on friday, police departments all across the country rebuked the message to the police. >> of course. >> i mean, so in his short tenure as the person in charge of the message he gave two of the worst received speeches of his presidency. and se

it's bizarre, mike schmidt. hall of fame third baseman, still with us.e's" sitting in the oval office, if you read the entire transcript, of the interview. >> incredible. >> it is beyond bizarre, what was your human reaction? well, maybe he didn't get what he was saying? i don't know, you tell us. >> the president is harder to follow than i thought he would be he tackles a lot of different things very quickly. as i was sitting here yesterday, there was a whole part where you looked at stuff he said about napoleon, i had morgan about that entire thing in the interview. >> that is my single favorite passage of the whole thing. >> there were so many different things that went on in the interview, they were in there about 50 minutes and he moved incredibly quickly, because i think from napoleon, we were quickly back on the economy and on to something else. you give a very difficult time pink him down and coming back to something. there are so many different interesting threadss or things you are not sure of or where they came from or what they mean. so mysel

joining me by phone, steve schmidt, senior strategist on the mccain, pale encampaign in 2008 and is an msnbc contributor. is this the way you see it, steve, this is a showdown and we're waiting for the explosion? >> certainly looks that way. look, what's clear is that the president objects very strongly to this investigation and he keeps moving closer to what ultimately ends in a constitutional crisis. it's a serious situation. he clearly doesn't understand that there are constraints on the actions of even the president of the united states in this country of laws, and the assault now on the attorney general that he's launching, he doesn't seem to understand is what it would do is put the deputy attorney general into the attorney general position and it is highly likely even this republican congress would refuse to confirm anybody to take sessions' place. >> he could do it, though, right? he could wait until the senate goes out of session, then put somebody in there. sounds like when you say constitutional crisis, like the only reason he would do this is to get rid of mueller. that's a

i don't think so because the interview that maggie and peter baker and michael schmidt did at the "new york times" was earlier today before those invitations went out to appear next week. i don't really know why he did it. certainly very interesting. >> i was reading it going is he -- did he realize that this was being recorded? it's fascinating to me. laura, being the legal expert that you are, if you were jeff sessions, what would you be thinking? how could you continue on? >> the attorney general serves at the pleasure of the president. i'm no longer pleasing you, sir, so obviously you have that conflict. but you also have a man who's pretty ambitious and that's jeff sessions who knows that the department of justice figure head role is far more expansive than simply the russian investigation and the russian probe. the president of the united states is saying had i known that the attorney general of the united states was not going to be a marionette of the president, i would have found a different puppet. imagine what that would feel like to the morale of the department of justice if
