bill weld was one of those principled republicans. he was a young lawyer working on a congressional committee with another young lawyer named hillary clinton when bill weld later went to work in the reagan justice department, he took a principled stand against the republican attorney general ed meese and bill weld resigned in protest, which then forced the republican attorney general to resign. bill weld went on to serve two terms as a republican governor of massachusetts. he is now the only republican running against donald trump for president. he will join us tonight on a night when the president is trying to turn back the presidential clock to the nixon presidency and stonewall the congress. and at the end of the hour tonight, we have a special guest joining us who has not been with us before. he will respond to jared kushner's statement today that the russian attack on our election that helped donald trump win the electoral college was nothing more than a couple of facebook ads. we'll be joined by robert anderson, who will be maki

[video clip] >> how seriously is the president's campaign taking a challenge by build weld -- will weld not seriously at all. the national committee said there is no primary challenge, they support president trump and what they are saying is reflecting what will probably can voters have told us, president trump has the highest own party approval ratings with one exception, president bush during 9/11. our voters have sent a pretty clear message they stand with the president. the rnc has reflected that. we are unconcerned. >> the rnc and the president are not even entertaining an idea of a primary debate? >> not at all. we are focused on the democrats and the running of socialism we see on the horizon. host: republicans only, do you support a primary challenge to the president? ed, you support, tell us why. caller: there are a couple of reasons. i have always voted republican, it is a character issue to me. the president is always a liar, i don't know when to believe and when not to believe. i think it would be good for him to stand up against another republican and let's hear them both o

former massachusetts governor william weld.ovich writes today that weld is at the helm of a, quote, slim lifeboat where holdouts of the battered gop can gather. weld is building himself as the resistance. he does have a message. leibovich compares it to the nfl draft. he writes, quote, an exercise that exists almost entirely in hype, speculation, and on tv. the prospects almost never pan out. there will be plenty of disappointment and dashed expectations. but getting there will yield opportunity. if only to state who you are and what you stand for. or what your party is and what it stands for. joining me now, "new york times" correspondent and msnbc mark looeibovich leibovich. you call them, quote, a slingshot army aimed at a single target. a rebel army standing up to a non-authoritarian conservatism. and a lonely only child. is there any -- do we know if there's anyone out there looking for someone like him? >> there's a lot of people out there. i guess the question is how many of them are there and who else will get in. i mea

could bill weld be president trump's pat buchanan. let me ask him. bill weld joining us now.> i want to get back to what you said recently. you said the mueller report paints the president as a one-man crime wave. you've also said you plan to run a ferocious campaign. does that mean you will make trump the center piece of your presidential campaign? >> no. i think what i want to do is going to be the center piece of my campaign and the issues will be spending. i was rated the most fiscally conservative governor in the office. the president hasn't vetoed a dime of spending. number two is jobs and wages. all of the jobs that are abouti by saying he wants the future to be coal and oil. and then some more general issues. lying is almost a default position for the president. five would be a free press. the president says we don't need a free press. that's just an autocrat talking. six, in some ways the most important to me, as a former long-time prosecutor in the ragan administration is the rule of law, and the president's made it very plain that he wants everybody to be loyal to

bill weld notwithstanding.ald trump and they are going to run donald trump and run behind donald trump on the agenda of a man who believes that robert lee is a great hero. of a man who believes that there were fine people on both sides in charlottesville. and you know, as vice president biden said this is a battle for the soul of america. it is a battle for the soul of america. we're going to have to make a decision as a country as to which side we're on. we know what side donald trump's on. we know what side his supporters are on that line up behind this agenda and we need to make it clear what side the majority of the american people are on. >> we're going to leave it there. before we do, let me make one point about bill weld and the reason i keep bringing him back into these conversations. history shows that when a president is challenged from within his own party, in the primaries, if that challenger stays in the racist just beyond new hampshire, that president will lose in the general election. it's just a

let me ask you about bill weld.s you and i both know, whenever you have an incumbent and i hope he does well and i hope other challengers will get into the race. mike barnicle and i were talking about this during the break. i think bill weld can do better than people think. you watch that interview he just did on here, he's intelligent, he's progressive, he's politically shrewd. he has that man are as if he never thinks of politics. careful to say he was for tax cuts and generally supporting the republican tax cut and he was a physicalfiscally conserva governor in massachusetts, which i think is true actually. it's not about style, it's the key. you like hill style, his tone, his man are, maefr so we'll have to be a little more interesting than people think, whether larry hogan or gillard or gallagher gets in or no one takes tof but talking about the bug spending the radical big spending the republicans have been engaged in for some time in washington, d.c. actually is a message that conservatives i think will want

governor hogan: bill weld called me just before he announced. i had a great conversation with him, wished him well, encouraged him and thanked him for being willing to run. he was a wonderful governor of massachusetts. if you are supportive of the president or not supportive of the president, i happen to believe that debate and discussion in talking about the issues is good. having the ability to have different viewpoints is good. that is why the stifling of debate or the rnc cutting off any kind of discussion is bad. it could make him a stronger candidate. and maybe other people are waiting until the fall to see who he is going to run against. but i think, the more the merrier. we have 20 people in the democratic side and we are going to be hearing about that for the next year and a half, or at least until they select somebody in august of next year. but we have nobody on the other side. so i want to thank bill weld for stepping up and i think others ought to consider it. i am really concerned. won in this very blue state, because i won suburba

governor weld is very vocal about caring about climate change. he says he even wants to keep the u.s. in the paris agreement, which is notable as a republican because very few republicans in power agree with that. wasknow, governor weld governor of massachusetts in the 1990's. at the time he was very progressive among republican governors, protected a lot of land and water. he made this a big issue. this is part of how he is trying to differentiate himself from president trump, on the environment. host: let's listen to the former massachusetts governor at an event in new hampshire in february.
