>> woodruff: what do you take away from all this, ilya shapiro?i look at another couple of changes during the day's questioning with al franken about arbitration, and with ben sass, about the same top and i can it goes towards how some judges are more willing to bend the law to achieve a just result because otherwise they don't like the result they're getting. franken was talking about how arbitration provisions might go against the little guy, and ben sass said i might agree with you in the cases you're presenting so we, senators, congress, should change those laws. that's where the debate is. sometimes reaching a result that seems unjustice is often opportunity for congress to change it. >> the question is what the interpretation of the arbitration act is. the current supreme court, with a republican majority, has narrowed people's ability to get into court by reading a law that's been around since 1920s, more narrowly than the court used to. so i think it's important to understand that laws can be read in a lot of different ways. they're not al

>> i talked to attorney general shapiro the day after, and he was still sort of reeling and mystifiedd he said -- like, i tried to say, like, "so what do you think he meant?" and he said, "i got to tell you. i've been over it time -- i don't know." my reading of it is that it eerily mimics a tweet from david duke, which is... >> exactly. it's outrageous. >> ...which is to say, to suggest and to stoke fears that this desecration was done by either jews or democrats to make him look bad. that's my reading of it. josh wouldn't go there, but it is indecent to suggest that. >> yeah, i just think it's absolutely outrageous. i mean, for someone to say that without any proof, tweeted by someone else who you know already has a propensity to come out with these kinds of outrageous things, and actually repeat that to people who are coming into your office -- >> but we don't for sure that that's who the president was repeating. >> but i don't understand how there's another way to interpret that. i don't see it as like saying, okay, there are rallies for people who are really upset about the affor

i have to be concerned about that. >> woodruff: i want to come right out of that to ilya shapiro and say, the democratic senator has made a point of noting that judge gore gore has worked in the past in republican political campaigns. does that have an effect, should it have any effect on how senators consider these nominees? >> i don't think that's unusual. justice kagan, for example, during her hearing, it came up how she worked from her college days all the way through the clinton white house in very political roles. she wrote an article in my former newspaper, the daily princetonian, about her experiences in a conditional race, and that's not disqualifying. in fact, it would be odd for someone who wants to be involved in public life to never have expressed any sort of political views or acted on some firmly held beliefs. >> drew: what. >> woodruff: what about that, pam carlin? the judge declined to say anything about what he remembered about the role of gay rights being on the ballot in that ohio campaign back in 2004. >> well, this is everybody who is nominated to the supreme co

josh shapiro asked about that. >> my specific question was this, what could the federal and state law enforcement do together to address this. the president essentially said three things, first, he called those acts reprehensible, which i thanked him for. >> it was the statement the president said next. >> he said sometimes the reverse may be true, he used the word three times, almost to suggest that sometimes it's being done to make others look bad. i was dumbfounded by what he said, i was disturbed by what he said. >> shapiro says he has yet to get clarity on what the president meant. >> we are a country that stands united in condemning heat and evil in all of its various forms. >> he appreciates the president addressing the acts last night. >> any leader when faced with a situation we are facing here in pennsylvania, needs to speak with moral clarity, and they cannot allow for people to misunderstand their words and to give the wrong people the opportunity to interpret their words in a way that is unhelpful, makes our job in law enforcement harder and makes pennsylvanians less safe

attorney general josh shapiro delivered the opening remarks. afterwards he weighed in on a bill signed by president trump reversing a rule to ban gun purchases by the mentally ill. >> i support people's second amendment rights to bear arms but need to support people's rights to be safe in their communities and arming people with criminal backgrounds, arming people with serious mental illness, is not a way to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the people of pennsylvania. >> shapiro also stressed the need for yufl background checks. >>> officials are taking action after a recent rash of armed robberies targeting cell phone stores. police and prosecutors announced plans for a new task force. they're hoping to prevent sne incidents like this where two men robbed a vrds stoerizon sto northampton county or this one. in each case, suspects got away with valuable electronics. so far, nobody's been caught. >>> also tonight can you put a price on sunshine? this warm winter weather could lead to higher utility bills for some customers. nbc 10's drew smith

shapiro said trump went on to use the word "reverse" two or three more times. in response, steven goldstein of the anne frank center said -- "mr. president, have you no decency? to cast doubt on the authenticity of anti-semitic hate crimes in america constitutes anti-semitism in itself, and that's something none of us ever dreamed would disgrace our nation from the white house." during president trump's speech to the joint session of congress last night, he announced plans to create a new office called voice -- that's victims of immigration crime engagement. trump has previously directed the homeland security department to publish a list of crimes committed by immigrants, which some historians have compared to germany's nazi-era policy of publishing lists of crimes committed by jews. trump invited family member of people killed by undocumented immigrgrants to his spspeech lat night. democrats, meanwhile, gave their tickets away to immigrants, including 16-year-old angel and 14-year-old jacqueline rayos-garcia, whose mother guadalupe was deported back to mexico

shapiro: right. much of what i was going to say caroline has said. but i want to make one other point. when peter says well, if you have a phenomenon, a bilateral trade deficit that cost someone their job, shouldn't you do something about that? well, of course you should with labor policies. but that also fundamentally ignores the other side of it. which is to say that trade deficit represents the ability for american businesses and individuals to consume those goods at less cost. than if they were manufactured here. and that allows them then to buy more things. made by americans or made by foreigners. which drives growth. this is, you know, to ignore all of the benefits of comparative advantage driven trade. is really -- provides i think a very partial and somewhat distorted picture. >> ok, thank you. i do want to go to questions and answers. so raise your hand. we've got mike roaming around. and when you ask the question, please identify yourself and your affiliation and ask a question, please. >> i'm going to add, if folks could also not speechify
