trump is using the n-word. press secretary sarah saouers said she not guarantee that the president had never used racial slurs. >> have you asked the president if he has ever used the n-word? sarah sanders: the president answered that question directly via twitter. i would refer you back to him. i have never heard him use that term -- >> can you stand at e podium and guarantee the american people they will never hear donald trump utter the n-word on a recording in any context? sarah sanders: i can't guarantee anything. rajini: to discuss all of that, i was joined earliery n christie, former adviser to esent george w. bush. we just played that clip of sarah sanders. i would love to know what your reaction is, her saying she guarantee that the president did not use a racial slur. ron: it is remarkable, remarkable that the spokeswoman for the president of the united states could not assure the white house press corps that thd prt of the united states did not use one of the most derogatory racial slhes we have innglish l

those are the words from press secretary sarah huckabee sanders as she made a blatantly false statementprogram employment at the podium yesterday. >> this president since he took office in the year-and-a-half that he's been here has created 700,000 new jobs for african-americans. that's 700,000 african-americans that are working now that weren't working when this president took place. when president obama left after eight years in office, eight years in office he had only created 19 5,000 jobs for african-americans. president trump in his first year-and-a-half has already tripled what president obama did in eight years. >> no. that is not a fact. that is not true. she later corrected the record and apologized. here's the truth. president obama created about 3 million jobs for african-americans during his eight years in office. advisors said, look, this was miscommunication. this is after bloomberg pointed out the mistake. joining me now, the man who did just that. you were listening to this and you thought, what? >> yeah. i just thought those numbers just sounded way off. just sort of d

. >> not only did the president's words matter, the press secretary's words matter. july 23rd, sarah huckabee sanders was forecasting some of this, that this was going to happen. let's take a listen. >> making baseless accusations of improper contact with russia or being influenced by russia against the president is extremely inappropriate and the fact that people with security clearances are making these baseless charges provides inappropriate liegitimacy. >> even though those things may not have anything to do with each other, it doesn't take a security clearance to read the newspaper and talk about the contacts that the president's associates have had with russians. these two things do not have to be related at all. what's interesting to me about this situation and the reason sarah huckabee sanders ended up being out there on the podium was that earlier in that week the person who suggested this whole idea was a republican senator, rand paul. you know, republicans are not just picking up the pieces from donald trump. they are helping him break the windows. they we

in other words, the press release that was sent out about brennan was dated a month ago. this is being used to distract from a lot of bad media about the white house. the fact that sarah sanders and others are the ones in charge of this, as we now know in terms of the reporting, in terms of when they will release future security clearance withholdings, suggests this is all political. i think the intelligence community will survive this. but i think it shows how desperate donald trump, sarah sanders and others are right now in terms of what the narrative means for the white house. >> bob, the flip side to that, did brennan at any juncture in your view cross the line? did he go too far, whether it be talking about russian collusion or otherwise, knowing he would still be used as a consultant with the intelligence community? >> well, i think it's what john brennan knows. a lot of the intelligence we're seeing that's appeared in the press is just the tip of the icebe iceberg. he knows a lot more. there's a lot more from the national security agency that would back this stuff

certainly not going to reference that word but his press secretary when pressed on that could not simply utter the words that she could guarantee there is no tape of him using that word. what's your reaction to that? >> well, it's more of what we have seen before from this president. it's unpredictable. we know that he is impulsive. we know he does things that are embarrassing to the presidency. and embarrassing to this country. what we saw the day in regards to how he handled the personnel issues, that's another embarrassment. it's been one issue after the next. this is the president of the united states. that is leader of the free world. and yet, we have to defend the language he uses or the manner in which he conducts the personnel business in the white house? that's a scandal to our country. >> omarosa made another claim today. and again, she is making the claims we should note without presenting at least us the public evidence of this but she claims that president trump knew ahead of time that wikileaks would release the hacked e-mails of hillary clinton and other democratic campaig

word. the press secretary couldn't guarantee -- >> that was a remarkable moment in the life of press secretaries. to leave open the possibility that the president said one of the most vile things and it might be on tape was a remarkable moment. i'm glad we were there. >> this leads me to the question, how concerned you are about the safety of your reporters right now. your publisher met with the president recently and delivered a message about this rhetoric of enemy of the people and so on. we have seen some of the -- some of the scenes at his rallies. >> you know, we have a lot of fake news back there. the enemy of the people i call them. >> i'm deeply concerned. not only concerned by the way about what happens inside the united states at some of the volatile trump rallies. i think the president has sent a message to despots abroad that you can disrespect the press. we have had presidents attack the press. we never had a president go on foreign soil and attack the press. we have to manage newsrooms with people who operate if a third world. we manage newsrooms with people who cover governments t

initially denied having any conversations about the existence of a possible trump "n" word tape. >>> white house press secretary sarah sanders issuing a rare correction, apologizing for falsely claiming president trump created three times as many jobs for african-americans than former president barack obama. >> this president, since he took office, in the year and a half that he's been here, has created 700,000 new jobs for african-americans. that's 700,000 african-americans that are working now that weren't working when this president took place. when president obama left, after eight years in office, eight years in office, he had only created 195,000 jobs for african-americans. >> so, that's not even close to true. according to the labor department, the u.s. has created 700,000 jobs for african-american workers during the trump administration. it added nearly 3 million jobs during obama's eight years. sanders later corrected herself via twitter, saying the jobs numbers were correct, but the time frame for president obama wasn't. "i'm sorry for the mistake, about the no apologies for the 700,000 jobs
