ted emulated bobby, and when bobby died, ted felt the pressure -- i mentioned before, when one of the sons died, the mantle fell to the next one. i think ted kennedy never wanted to be president. i don't think he wanted to be president, but it was something he had grown up thinking it was his responsibility. the party kept turning to him, and i think he was happiest as a u.s. senator when he unsuccessfully challenged jimmy carter and could go back to being a u.s. senator. here was a question? >> my understanding that j. edgar hoover got permission from bobby kennedy to put microphones and his motel and tape martin luther king and blackmail him. is that correct? mr. tye: the first half of what you said is absolutely correct. j. edgar hoover kept going back to bobby kennedy wanting to wiretap martin luther king. the reason he wanted to wire tap him was because there was a fear, and a fear that hoover fans, i think without any convincing evidence, that there were leftists and communists in martin luther king's hierarchy. and at the moment, j. edgar hoover survived through endless attorne

together -- actually, ted was the senior senator. he had been elected before bobby. the only time the staff never knew where they were was when they were visiting one another's offices, and ted kennedy gave bobby -- he was the older in the kennedy family -- everything mattered who was the elder, and bobby kennedy got to choose his issues. he chose vietnam as his issue and ted kennedy look to other issues. they adored one another. , and whened bobby bobby died, ted felt the pressure -- i mentioned before, when one of the sons died, the next one.l to the i think ted kennedy never wanted to be president. i don't think he wanted to be president, but it was something he had grown up thinking it was his responsibility. the party kept turning to him, and i think he was happiest as a u.s. senator when he unsuccessfully challenged jimmy carter and could go back to being a u.s. senator. there was a question? >> my understanding that j edgar hoover got permission from bobby andedy to put microphones his motel and tape martin luther king and bla

ted cruz should win.t could be a close race. >> beto o'rourke the kind of candidates that democrats should be looking for towards their future hopes and maybe not this election but the coming years? maybe they can pick up steam there? >> i don't know. when you think back to the democratic primary, beto o'rourke squeezed by. it was a surprise to a lot of people. he had established his backing. the money didn't flow in the way that alex would be accustomed to for the leading candidate. the question is if he has that kind of appeal to energy the democrats that are necessary to turn out in large numbers to win. the key on the immigration issue, now he's leading marches to the border and using it as an edge and an effective wedge, which is why he's getting closer. >> dana: ted cruz has his idea of a solution, a very narrowly targeted bill. >> he's handled the issue very well. he's talk about what he's for rather than what he's against. he's offered common sense solutions for handing the immigration issue in te

[ cheers and applause ] wouldn't you like to see ted cruz -- ted in those little '80s larry bird shortshe wasn't as enthusiastic about that idea. he wrote, as borat demonstrated conclusively, nobody wants to see that and abc would probably be fined by the fcc. how about this, you dress yourself, i'll do the same, play to 10, by ones, win by two. to try again i wrote, crop tops? [ laughter ] that didn't fly either. he wrote, jimmy kimmel, never mind the dress code. now i'm annoying him.

[ laughter ] maybe that's the way to go, sacrifice myself for the good of the land. this could be a real thing. why he wants to do this i have no idea. you really want to play basketball against a talk show host? you already lost an election to a reality show host, isn't that enough? [ laughter and groans ] if he wants to do it, i feel that i have to do it, right? besides, who needs to watch lebron and kevin durant again when

they had the ted cruz victory parade. see tens of thousands of demons lined the streets to support their hometown guy. demons, scorpions, locusts. elephants with snakes for trunks. you name it, if it was unholy, it was there, and a bad time was had by all. this is something i want to make sure to get to. you remember when kim kardashian met the president in the oval office? so while kim sat down for an interview with van jones on cnn the other night, van asked if she thought it was possible that the president was using her to take advantage of her star power. >> trump is using you as a political pawn. now you've endorsed him in a way, you've kind of given him legitimacy. you might be in a campaign video. he used you. >> i think -- i think kanye's already given him legitimacy. so i don't, you know -- in that way. so i was working on this before. so -- i don't -- like for being -- i don't think i would be used. just -- if he already got that -- >> that box is checked. >> trying to use me? like how? because he already kind o

there is a version of this picture that ted kennedy gave to me a month before he passed away. you can see here the snow-covered mountains in the background and walking down the nway, and one of those few moments of peace and reflection senator kennedy, when he gave me this picture, he wrote me a in july, onewas month before ted kennedy passed away. onsaid, i have alwaysfreckles y may 22, 1968. he said he has a copy of it hainin his office. and he knew a little bit from our conversations that bobby had been an inspiration to me, and he wrote, i know that bobby played an important role in shaping your views, i thought you would like to have a copy of the photograph for your senate office as well. i only wish i could give it to you in person. he wrote. photo proudly displayed on my senate office wall. of the verye special feelings that we have in vietnam ingwe had war abroad 1968. we had riots at home over the had deep, deep civic tensions between the generations. and there was a sense that his and his ability to bridge the divide among races and genders and classes c, in his wor

or ted x.event that was ever staged so but it's definitely going to be one of the most moving because the speakers are just absolutely incredible and one of them is here with us today. well melissa one of the signs of what you just mentioned that this is going to be incredible is the buzz online because it's almost palpable this is collins on twitter who says text means a lot it has been well received with lots of excitement and the main reason is that being an old camp of over twenty five years the risk of its people being forgotten are real as new emergencies come up ted x. will show the world what is made of her name i want to give that to you because you were born in the camp what does it feel like for you to go back for the first time and why did you say yes to tax. i said yes to tax. i mean. i didn't think that. it could possibly bring me back to kakuma like it was almost like a perfect two in one you know i come back home for the first time and also doing my first. so it's still very sur

speaking at his younger brother's funeral, our former colleague senator ted kennedy said that robert kennedy, quote, need not be idolized ornlarge in death beyond what he was in life, that he can be remembered simply as a goo and dent man ,aw suffeng tried to right heal it, saw war and tried to stop it. i was inspid hffts to right wrong and heal suffering and stop war. inspired enough that when i beor and was assigned an office, that happened to be the former office of rert f. kennedy in the russell building, i proudly pointed that out to visitors, that here in my office once sat the great robert kennedy, who did in fact see wrong and try to right it and suffering and heal it and war and stop it. in may 1968, i was in 6th grade. i was an 11-year-old, out in oregon, and bobby kennedy as we affectionately referred to him was camign my state. he was going very quickly from community to community, delivering speeches and n one high school -- in one high school after another. and my grade school 6th grade teacher announced that he was going to give a speech at my high school, except i was

texas senator ted cruz insulted by kimmel's comment telling him on twitter to put his money where his on the basketball court. >> it's not like kareem has challenged me to a match here. it's ted cruz. >> reporter: it's the most unlikely way to settle a score between a celebrity comedian and the powerful lawmaker he makes his punch line. >> this will be ted cruz's second mosbaemt siasrrngos >> reporter: the trash talk doesn't stop there. the two trade barbs on twitter leading up to the big event. are you ready for this?. i think it could bring an end to the sport of basketball as we know it. >> reporter: you have a killer cross over? you good in the paint? >> i have no actual moves. the game is going to take forever. >> reporter: we've seen kimmel's skills on the court before but in this matchup, senator cruz is the odds-on favorite to win. he is three years younger, and actually played varsity basketball in high school. the loser of the not so epic showdown will make a donation to one of two houston charities. >> under no circumstances willjimmy dunk on me. and i will pull his shorts

ted blobfish cruz challenged me to play.nd i'm going to play with him, which is something no one ever did with him in school. one within [ laughter ] one-on-one basketball is good for ted because there's no way he can get picked last. and i'm feeling good. i'm confident. but i'm not overconfident. one thing i'm worried about, to be honest, i just heard donald trump has agreed to temporarily give ted his balls back. [ laughter ] he's having them fedexed. but after the game they go right back in the trophy case. you want to be there to watch me defeat this gelatinous ass? go to kimmelvscruz.com. we'll see you there. this is shaping up to be quite a rivalry. they're calling it magic versus turd. i'm the magic. [ laughter ] and while that is happening there's another major sporting event happening in russia. today was day two of the world cup. today teams from spain, iran -- [ cheers and applause ] -- egypt played, all the chickpea-based economies faced off today. no day of world cup action would be complete without this. the wo

no, we've given ted cruz a hard time on this show, but let's give him props.e wants to solve this problem. ( applause ) yeah. and i think we need to solve it before ted cruz decides to go to these detention centers himself because these kids have been through enough! ( laughter ) they -- they will be, like, please, please, let me oat out of this cage. what's that? no, no, keep me in! is that what you have on the outside? no, i'll stay in here. ( laughter ) lawmakers in both parties are against trump separating kids from their parents and more surprising even trump is against trump separating kids from their parents. >> we want to solve this problem, we want to solve family separation. i don't want children taken away from parents. >> trevor: now, i know you might be a little confused right now, like why would trump hate the policy he himself made? but let's be real, you don't always love everything you make. ( audience reacts ) and also, the president can't just change this policy. i mean, well, he can, but not without the approval of his advisors. and the pro

lieu: i am congressman ted lieu of california. if the statue of liberty could cry, she would be crying today. as i stands here there are 2,300 babies and kids ripped away from their parents by our government and are in detention facilities across america. america was a country founded by people fleeing from persecution. we are a land of immigrants. president ronald reagan called us that shining city upon the hill. unfortunately donald trump and homeland security secretary nielsen have per vetted that grand -- perverted that grand legacy and have engaged in the functional equivalent of kidnapping. you can believe in no god or any god at all and conclude that ripping kids away from their parents similar moral. i believe in jesus christ. every single thing in the gospels and what christ taught goes against the policy of family separation. imagine being a mother and father and losing your child to the government and not knowing if you're ever going see your child again. the horror of that. imagine being a child, when you were young, y

for that matter, how did ted cruz get in the senate?> -- basketball game with jimmy kimmel starting to get a little more final here. place, what's the latest? a >> it's going to be a wkrom saturday and i'm looking fun. >> in high school you played basketball, he played clarinet. how is he possibly going to beat you? >>ell, listen a, i was a mediocre high school player. i rode the bench an awful lot. i don't know how it's going to shake out. my team is terrified that jimmy kimmel's going to dunkn me. >> jimmy: that i wouldn't worry about. [ laughter ] i have a two-inch vertical leap the only drunking i do is charitable thing? what does that work for? >> so the terms of the challenge -- jimmy kimmel was making fun of my rockets for losing. >> jimmy: okay,old on. first of all, i did no suc thing. i know wt you're trying to do here, lyin' ted, trying to turn the fans in houston against me because you say i made fun of the rockets. i did not make fun of the rockets, made fun of you pretending to be a fan of the rockets. and looking like a gr

now ted cruz challenged me to play one on one after i compared him to a blobfish.lobfish. [ laughter ] i thought i fairly compared him to. i've been working on something. on saturday, one unlucky person is going to go home with this ted cruz bloblehead ball. it's a little bit sticky. only one in existence. it will bring whomever owns it bad luck. if somebody wants it at the event i will give this away. since i'll be playing on ted's home turf i thought i might need help to get the crowd on my side and there's nothing sports fans love more than mascots. for the first time ever i'm pleased to introduce my new team mascot, the late night. the late night! [ applause ] ladies and gentlemen, for the first time ever, here he is. let's give a late night tv welcome to the late knight! [ cheers and applause ] where the [ bleep ] is the knight?

en jimmy kimmel took on ted cruz in a two hour one on one game.ruz suggested it and the loser was to give money to charity. i would not have picked ted cruz, but the real winners were detido hildren's hospital a who nations. >> thomas markle opened up about not being about to walk his daughter down the aisle. >> is am jealous, i wish it had been me. >> the unfortunate thing for me now is i'm a footne in a great moment in history rather than the dad walking her down the isle. -- aisle. he says he has spoken to his son-in-law in a few phone calls. he says prince harry is interesting. they have not had a face to fate meeting. he complained to him about donald trump. harry said to give trump a chance. he asked if harry was a trump supporter, but he may be getting a few laughs from the studio. but is this an insight of him as a father and father-in-law. he points out his daughter is a prize for prince harry. he said he may be a prince, but she has been a princess since the day she was born. he said he was happy about this love story. he said meghan tol

they call him ted.nder the photo i don't know if you can see, it says he played varsity basketball. meanwhile, this is my high school yearbook photo. i did not play varsity basketball. [ laughter ] i played the clarinet in high school. [ cheers and applause ] and yet i think about it, i cannot imagine any scenario in which i lose this game to that greasy blobfish. there's just no way. [ laughter ] so we'll give the details and location and all that stuff soon. guillermo, you're coming with me, right? >> of course. i'll be there for you. >> jimmy: okay. thank you very much. today, in case you didn't know, is a bigly day for our president. today is donald trump's 500th day in office. which i have to say it feels like only yesterday that it was trump's 1,000th day in office. [ laughter ] so today marks trump's 500th day in office. tonight will mark trump's 500th night of getting cheese wiz all over the lincoln bedspread. [ laughter ] the president congratulated himself on twitter today. he wrote "this is m

ted: that is a great question.act economic numbers yet, but they will be big losses in a lot of states he cares about. if you look at the retaliation measures from europe, canada, and mexico, they are aimed at the states that voted for trump. you will have manufacturers in those places that are steel and aluminum buyers. they will hurt. even had the steel workers saying don't go after the canadians. they are our friends. he is pretty isolated on this. he has picked a fight with a lot of different people, including his republican allies in congress. tom: what do the republicans need to do? one at the hoover institution, they agree completely polarized that this is bad policy. what do rational republicans do to not arrest or staunch this policy, but get it to a good outcome? ted: i think they will have a very difficult time. in theory, congress controls foreign commerce. over the decades, it has delegated most authority to be president. tom: do they take it back? ted: you are talking about super majorities in the hou

not been put up in other parts of the camp so that the residents here can also watch and enjoy this ted x. talk there is a great opportunity to see a different side to refugees lies. that from. now the co-founder of the animation giant pixar is to leave the company by the end of this year john lasseter has been on a six month leave of absence of what he called missteps which included giving unwanted house that made primo employees uncomfortable i was the creative mind behind the company's top hits toy story frozen and finding take on a consulting role for pixels parent company disney. as a two thousand and eighteen feet up in russia is about to kick off philippines is experiencing a high on the international stage but the game is still struggling to see for a local league to melinda and takes a look at how in rural areas in southern philippines young filipinos dream about becoming professional football players. following his football dream ralph says he has loved the sport for as long as he can remember his aspirations are no different to those of many boys to be a professional football

ted cruz has a proposal.'t seen the details but sounds like it's going in the right direction, i just don't know because we don't have the bill. but my point is, this can take a very long time to get through the legislative process because everyone is going to glom on other ideas. that's why we have to keep the pressure on the white house. we have republicans both from the congress but also throughout the country telling the president, do the right thing. the evangelical community, catholic conference. this rises above politics and that's what we're hearing from people throughout the country. >> senator, some of your democratic colleagues, kamala harris, senator rono, they have said how the administration has handled it, how they've reacted to it and what they're continuing to say about it, they're now calling on secretary nielsen to resign now. do you think she should resign after this? >> well, if i thought her resignation would solve the problem, i would definitely call upon her to resign. that was a miser

ted cruz introducing legislation to end family separation. here's the thing, republicans fear their control of the house is at stake, this could get voters in swing districts up off the couch to vote. is it time to set aside this policy because you lose the house and no border wall? >> here's the deal. republicans on capitol hill are scared of the pr optices and what's going on with the border detention controversy. if you go with ted cruz and solve the short-term pr crisis, what you're not doing is effectively decent advising illegal immigration. that's where donald trump made the point. ted cruz's point does not go far enough. and immigration, we need to solve the problem. democrats have no interest beyond open borders and have you republicans who can't decide exactly how much illegal immigration they want to curtail. so essentially donald trump has to put this on his back and actually a great issue in a midterm election for him if he can get the optices on your side. liz: breaking the law if you cross the border illegally. you're breaking

we have also been told ted cruz are alsoor feinstein looking at creating these separation bills they had before trump signed the order. you are seeing people come together from very different factions of each party because everyone wants to end this. it is not just moderates that want to this or democrats, we have people like ted cruz pushing forward. >> even if some compromise, narrow or wide, what is the likelihood in the senate to follow suit and make something happen? >> the senate has introduced a bill that would address this issue on a very narrow basis of what to do with the families at the border and how to keep families together while they -- immigration cases are being adjudicated or being sent back to their home countries. house republicans are expected to introduce a similar bill today to address that. the problem for the house republicans and just a backup on that, there is widespread concern among house republicans and democrats, both parties in congress that they need to have thise not only to end policy or heading into the midterm elections to show they are on record

bring a ted x. event to a refugee camp and allow refugees to be the speakers for change and not just refugees but people from refugees like lima and people who care about changing the narrative. changing the approach to refugees around the world so yeah it was a vision that was a dream. actually we kind of thought we were crazy because it was logistically quite a feat but as you see today from those images are amazing logistics team and kenyan company managed to set up a state of the art facility a tent in the middle of the of a secondary school in the middle of a very remote refugee camp you have to imagine it's a four hour drive from nairobi i'm very bumpy road. the road the bridge was actually washed out a week before and when the whole quest the whole event was being called into question anyway was there no it may be. that sounds all so little it sounds like what was i thinking what we thinking how can we get this done. i know i think i would i don't know if it's true but i would say it must be

and senator ted cruz, just a few moments ago, i gotta play this for you. he's a constitutional expert, right? constitutional lawyer, you know, this is ted cruz we're talking about here. he's asked explicitly whether the president could pardon himself and i have to play you the exchange, david. >> the president says he can pardon himself. would you agree with that? >> . [ inaudible ] >> that is not a constitutional issue i've studied, so i will withhold judgment at this point. >> david, that was 18 seconds. okay? you heard someone walking, but it was 18 seconds it took ted cruz to come up with an answer to that question. which is, oh, i don't know. what do you say to that? >> you know, senator cruz is ushl usually not short on opinions on constitutional law. so that's what i think you would call a very pregnant pause. john is right, it's an open question legally, although the office of legal counsel at the department of justice which isg presidential prerogatives, did conclude that the president couldn't do it. you can imagine a court reaching same result o

followed some of the younger millennials through college and beyond how are they doing financially tedeck, president and ceo of the national endowment for money education and ted let's talk about the study. it's unique. follow add group of arizona freshmen and started when they were 18 years old. >> started in 2008 they're approaching 30 followed through interesting times. they're doing pretty well, hit a big speed bump called the recession but getting on with their lives. buying houses, making families, in committed relationships and most importantly, employed. >> a lot of millennials, sort of maligned we think of people living in basements, can't afford to buy a house or do anything is that fair or unfair sounds differently based on what you say. >> you have to look at the segments the no is thing about this study it looked at people who actually finished college. >> okay. >> they're doing pretty well starting to buy houses 28% have houses. about 10% actually started families, have children. and are employed actually starting to save for retirement. >> reporter: is that different tha

just tonight, ted cruz is introducing emergency legislation. so the pressure is mounting on this president to do something. he knows he does have the power to do it. the question is will he? >> kristen, great watching you there. i love the back and forth. i think you hit them right on the rhead with the policy. a policy they claim they invented but they claim the democrats for not getting rid of it. this is crazy talk. let me go to jacob at the reality that exists down there, not just the tv show. jacob, tell us what you see down there, what we should know. >> well, let me just also sing kristen's praises. she asked the question we still don't have an answer to. where are the toddlers? where are the girls? we've been given access to two 100 facilities run by health and human services where the separated child migrants are being held. i've been in one of them. nbc's got in another. we haven't seen any girls or toddlers. what we do know and what i would like to know, what the president would react if he got to see what i saw in that facility is t

rule number three, i'll be playing against ted and ted alone, he cannot get any help from soldiers inis goblin army. number four, every time ted uses a line from the simpsons he loses a point. senator cruz will be allowed no more than three pornography breaks. [ audience booing ] if we can agree on those, i think we'll be in very good shape. [ cheers and applause ] that will be happening june 16th in houston, texas, at a venue tbd. have that note rised, will you? i have another battle in front of me tonight. we have the tradition on this show that goes back i think to colonial times. every year we invite the winner of the scripps national spelling bee to spell against me. this year's winner is a 14-year-old named carthic nemeny. here's the winning word. >> c-o-eye-n-o-n-i-a. >> that's where coins come from. how does he know that word? of all the fun things that come along winning spelling bee there ar lot of the them, this is what carthic is most excited about. >> what's the coolest thing about winning? >> i get to go on jimmy kimmel with guillermo.

first, tom reed and then later on, ted lieu of california. last night former president bill clinton and james patterson were at the warner theatre in washington to discuss their suspense novel, "the president is missing." this will air tomorrow night at 7 p.m. eastern time. [video clip] >> the book opens with the same painfully reminiscent of many congressional hearings. i guess that was something he wanted to relive, sir? [laughter] >> no, actually, it's patterson at his best. i wish i could take credit for it. you have to have a good opening, right? my job was to keep it real. difference -- it deals with the potential of the president being impeached, but the

>> the fact that you even brought up ted cruz and bethel o'rourke, ted cruz's seat should never evenould never even have made a dentd in the political conversation. the fact that we're even talking about him, i think speaks volumes of the kind of dent that democrats have made and the kind of numbers that we have been able to rack up in the last elections because we have been able to really shrink the margins in places where democrats should never be in play. for example, connor's seat in pennsylvania, look at what happened in alabama, the enthusiasm, there's no question that it's on the democratic side. but let me address one thing. >> we're short on time and i do want to get this little tidbit in as well. in california, it is noteworthy that you look at the registrations of voters and republicans have slid into third, there are more registered democrats and more registered independents than registered republicans. steve, do you worry at all about that becoming a national trend? >> listen, it's possible, the republican party, i'll be real honest here, the republican party is in searc

same thing happened to ted cruz when he ran for senate.into -- but i think i'm getting in his head. there was a senate hearing today. now the hearing, as i understand, was to look into the federal judiciary's response to allegations of sexual harassment. but one of the senators clearly has basketball on his greasy little brain. >> mr. duff, you and i go back a long way. we've known each other over 20 years. spent a lot of time up on the basketball court at the supreme court. i suspect your fellow panelists don't know you were a walk-on basketball player at kentucky with a wicked jump shot. i hope you've kept that up. i've got a game coming up on saturday, i may need some of your coaching between now and then. >> put me in, coach. >> jimmy: anyway, back to sexual harassment. [ laughter ] by the way, there's a guy in the background, zoom in on the guy in the background. that guy, he's like -- what the -- [ laughter ] -- hell is going on here? this is all going down at texas southern university on saturday. if you live in houston or you want

at our table is congressman ted lieu. he sits on the judiciary committee as well as foreign affairs. here to talk about the president's trips abroad. he actually is a board marine one and landing at joint injuries air force base -- join andrews air force base. he is there leaving canada early to go off to singapore. let us start with the g7 and the reaction from our allies to his moves on tariffs and trade. what do you think? guest: thank you, greta, for that question. like health care, trade is complicated, but what the president is going to find out is that these countries are going to push back unlike the republican-controlled congress. they are not going to just fall down and not do anything. they are going to hit back. countries such as mexico have already imposed tariffs on pork, bourbon, and motorcycles. it will create problems for the emerson people. -- for the mac and people. -- for the american people. host: tom reed said he is for disrupting vehement -- the status quo and what we have done for years on trade ha

including ted cruz. late today. >> all of us who are seeing these images of children being pulled away from moms and dad in tears, are horrified. this has to stop. kids need their moms and dads. >> the president says he hates this. yet he and his top officials refuse to take responsibility for the policy decision that they in fact made happen. the dhs secretary would not even concede the existence of a policy. >> this administration did not create a policy of separating families at the border. >> keeping them honest, now the administration did not create a policy to specifically tear children from their parents. they were okay with that. listen to chief of staff john kelly when asked about it in march of last year. >> if you get some young kids who manage to sneak into the united states with their parents, are department of homeland security personnel going to separate the children from their moms and dads. >> we have tremendous experience with dealing with unaccompanied minors. i am considering an audit

the first time i went to ted, 1998, i had no idea what i was coming into. why am i listening to an architect, followed by a software guy, made no sense to me at all, but, by day three, it started to connect. can actually learn fmeone outside of your field you can learn context you can be stimulat and in your mind, five things come together, and can explode in a way that actually wouldn't happen in anyone else's mind, because this is how ideas are born. there is a moment where you have to emerge from your trench, come up, above, 10,000 feet at the amazing pattern that is out there of how things connect. context matters, you can't really understand somethingho deeply w knowing how it sunnects to something else, which means that ping experts in a field to share their knowledge accessibly with the rest ous, that's a huge gift to all of us. my name is chris anderson, and spectacular take on the power of ideas. >> woodruff: you can watch additional brief but spectacular episodes on our bsite, pbs.org/newshour/brief. on the newshour online right now, the investiga

use the ted cruz one as an example. the "national enquirer" puts it out there, and donald trump is able to get up there on tv and say, hey, did you see this? i've read this. people are talking about this story. it's out there. he can say, hey, the "national enquirer" is credible. it gave him an excuse to talk about this in public. do you think things like that ended up having an impact on the election? >> they might have had a minimal impact on the primaries. i don't know what impact they had on the election. the idea that the "national enquirer" is beholden to the rules of proper journalistic conduct is a little preposterous. it is a publication that has for 50 years done nothing but violate every journalistic rule in the playbook, you know. so the notion that it did not hold itself to a proper standard of, you know, of mainstream conduct is something that i think everybody understood during 2016 who was paying attention. i think more interestingly is what the relationship between trump and the enquirer shows in larger
