for the trump team was to claim that donald trump simply knew nothing about it and yesterday donald trump claimed that intelligence briefers, quote, did not report it to me or the vice president. so you have to ask yourself, is there any reason, any reason at all to believe donald trump? the same person who is claiming that he didn't know the video he retweeted had a trump supporter saying white power twice. obviously there is no reason to believe donald trump's denial that he knew about intelligence indicating russia is paying to kill american soldiers. donald trump denies that he was briefed on it. donald trump has decided that claiming to be a president who is totally ignorant of evidence that vladimir putin is trying to kill american soldiers looks better than being a president who does nothing about vladimir putin trying to kill american soldiers after being briefed on it. so was the president briefed on what russia is doing in afghanistan? probably. but we don't know that for sure. we also don't know for sure that the intelligence findings are correct. maybe this is a version of wea

, trump, trump!reporter: but tulsa officials say this rally may be risky. an expected crowd of 100,000 people could pack downtown for the rally, counter-protests, and juneteenth celebrations. from june 6 to june 13, tulsa county saw a 116% increase in the number of daily reported covid-19 cases from the previous week. are you expecting cases to spike? >> that's a possibility. i think it's tremendous that we have-- we live in a society where people have a voice, but we are still in a time when we're in the middle of a pandemic. >> reporter: late today, nor kevin stittrnor kevin stitt joined president trump for a roundtable discussion at the white house. >> oklahoma is ready for your visit. it's going to be safe and we're really, really excited. >> reporter: president trump told "the wall street journal" he also told the journal that people at the rally could get the coronavirus but added it's a very small percentage. people will be packed for hours inside the arena before the rally even starts. on sat

vote trump. he followed minutes later, do you get the impression that the supreme court doesn't like me? >> willie, shotgun blasts to the face of conservatives and republicans and then warning about the second amendment, of course, we just talked about how even with trump's two picks the supreme court is not even hearing second amendment cases that the nra wants them to hear. but the violent rhetoric is the sort of thing you would expect the from a totalitarian leader, from an autocrat trying to, it seems to me, if it's a stretch let me know, but trying to incite violence against judges. >> well, of all the phrases he could have used, it's unclear to me why he chose that one. it's not like it's a common expression. i don't know if he's trying to incite violence. but what i do know is he can't imagine a scenario where this decision or any decision is not the supreme court doesn't like me? maybe it's not about a political question. maybe it's not about you, president trump. maybe it's about upholdi

>> president trump: i don't like choke holds. will say this, as somebody who -- you grow up and you wrestle and you fight, or you see what happens, sometimes if you are alone and fighting somebody, it is tough. and you get somebody i in a choe hold, what are you going to do? and it's a real bad person, and you know that, and they do exist. we have some real bad people. he saw that during the last couple of weeks, we saw some very good people protesting and some bad people, also. and you've got somebody in a choke hold, what are you going to do? let go and say, "let's start over, i'm not allowed to have you in a choke hold?" it's a tough situation. if you have two people, and in the case were talking about, four people, and two of them i guess just pretty much started. it's a very tricky situation. >> harris: that's an interesting point. >> president trump: to talk about it, off the cuff it would sound like, "absolutely." but you think about it, and you realize, maybe there is a bad fight. and the officer gets somebody in a positi

it has been about trump and the strategy just allow trump to sink his own ship and he's doing that ok so call rove has to get in his head he's got to shut up stupid he's got to shut up stupid dalan message i own message this is the message that in 6 points those 6 points i just gave that's the message that's it stick on it and then everything's going to be ok now i score is is trying to score stand winning they're showing some signs of weakness i inside the republican party and especially on down in the senate races and all of the other on down the ticket and down the ballot there is concern that that's why i think he is getting pressure rove row it is back because he's worried about the senate race there is really regenerated other could go back real quick so it's kind of about trump but they're really looking to the senate there's some talk that maybe they flip the house i don't see how they do they need 17 what 1717 yeah i'm curious do you think trump's going to listen to rove no i don't know he's incapable he doesn't have he just doesn't have the mental where when i think that the

trump never charged. something that the president has complained about routinely, publicly and privately, about the u.s. attorney there geoff berman for the fact that berman allowed this investigation to go forward. and it sort of -- look, donald trump fails to surprise me, but he does a lot of things that are predictab predictable. and he has in recent weeks, dating back to the end of the winter, fired different people, whether they were inspector generals or in this case a u.s. attorney, who he believed were not loyal to him. so this fits into that pattern. >> it fits into that pattern, andrew weissmann, but before we lost you, we were talking about how this was a botched firing. i mean the president said he had nothing to do with it. the attorney general, it's my understanding, didn't have the authority to do it himself. so it took them two days to get rid of someone who, as mike schmidt was just recounting, has investigated and we believe to still be investigating some of the people closest to the pre

what i think donald trump focuses on is donald trump. a conservative republican and this is a race in november between a conservative republican and a liberal democrat. i know joe biden well too. i've crossed swords with him in the foreign affairs field and in the judiciary field. he's a liberal democrat. donald trump is not a conservative republican. what i tried to how in the book is he doesn't operate on the basis of philosophy. he doesn't operate on the strategy or policy. he operates on what's good for donald trump. i understand every president takes politics into account in almost all their decisions. no surprises there. the difference there is not a matter of small degree. it's a qualitative difference in the way donald trump approaches the job. that's what you saw reflected in the ukraine experience. >> i guess i'm trying to get at -- my viewers know this by now. i covered your absence from the impeachment proceedings with this perhaps fantasy that you would show up and tell your story and corroborate the accounts of fiona hill w
