Sounds for him uncharacteristically defensive in trying to justify his remarks. You can read the whole statement on our website. It has become the dominant matter in republican president ial politics of late. Every republican president ial candidate has been asked to comment on trumps original statement. How to respond . One school of thought says show sympathy for the man. I salute donald trump for focusing on the need to address illegal immigration. I am not going to engage in the devious game of throwing rocks and attacking other republicans. Im not going to do it. Mark so ted cruz, santorum and showing sympathy and theres another school of thought that says hit him hard. Governor bush this was a guy who was a democrat for most of the last decade. He is not a stupid guy, so i do not assume he thinks that every mexican crossing the border is a rapist, so he is doing this to inflame and incite into draw attention which seems to be the organizing principle of his campaign. Governor perry i was offended by his remarks. He will have to defend those remarks. I never will. Mark trump wrote on twitter that jeb bush likes mexican illegals because of his wife. That tweet was later deleted. And there are Chris Christie and others who have said trump is a good guy who said a bad thing. So, heidi, what is the best way to deal with a controversial mr. Trump . Heidi the way they hope to do deal with him was ignore him. He was the reality star with the funny hair they wanted to ignore, but this shows they cannot ignore him, especially when he is making comments that many view as inflammatory. Mark and bad for the party. No way to ignore donald trump. He is a different breed of people are going to talk about him and if he says controversial things, as long as he is on the stage, they will have to answer. Heidi they took too long to respond. They will have to take this as a lesson. They took 12 days to respond. In the future they will have to be honest. Mark mitt romney took trumps endorsement in a highprofile way a couple years ago, he also criticized trump. I want someone to hit him harder and say he does not belong in this race. At some point, there will be a faceoff with donald trump. Heidi from gotham to gorham New Hampshire where Hillary Clinton marched in the fourth of july parade and her supporters were surrounded by ropes like common bovine creatures. She tried to get back on the press good side. She said she would do an interview tomorrow. Mark, good idea, bad idea . Mark it was purely logistical. It was a parade. They did not want the press preset so they would miss the whole parade. They were ruining the parade by running around and this was a way to keep them contained and moving forward, it looks horrible, but it was hugely logistical. Heidi given the history, they had to see this coming. It was stupid to do this especially given the Clinton Administration and Hillary Clintons own reputation with the press as being paranoid and having this brass knuckles approach to dealing with the media mark it is a selffulfilling prophecy to say because she has this relationship with the press everything feeds into this image. There are security concerns. Think about the parade. If they have let the press go whereever they wanted to go we are penned in all the time. Heidi they will have to be more sensitive. Mark i agree. I agree. I agree it does not look good. And there is a special onus on her. In this case i do not think their motives were anything but not to have the event the ruined. And they pay a price for who she is. Heidi and certainly, there is the accessibility and other elements they have been hit on. They are on it mark we will see the interview tomorrow. We will see what she gets asked and what she says. Chris christie over the weekend he was on fox news twice and did morning joe on msnbc. He went out of his way to name check some rivals in a negative way, including rand paul and ted cruz, and appeared to take a veiled shot at scott walker. Governor christie i am a guy who has dealt with a Democratic Legislature and got things done. Much more likely than if you are republican governor where they Republican Legislature were used things down the hall, they stamp it and send it back. Senator pauls conduct has made them weaker and more vulnerable to attack. It is a terrible thing. And for him to raise money off of it, it is disgraceful. I find it ironic, right, that ted cruz is giving lectures on republican violence. All due respect, i do not need to be lectured by ted cruz. Mark you have the best republican brawler calling out his rivals. Is this smart for him to start going after people by name pretty much before anyone else . Heidi its not only smart. Its his only option. We are talking about a guy who went from the prohibitive frontrunner to he may not qualify for the debates. What does he do to call attention . He is throwing punches in every direction. Not just at jeb, another prohibitive front runner, but also ted cruz. It is also his style, being scrappy. Mark the other smart thing, he is going after people on things that he believes about. These are not gratuitous shots. He is defending himself. Cruz has criticized people for criticizing trump, and christie points out that cruz has his own problem going after republicans. I think he is speaking for the heart from the heart and when Chris Christie speaks from the heart, he is at his best. The biggest political stories on the planet are not here, but overseas. We will get you excited talking about greece and iran, right after this. Mark the deadline on the Iran Nuclear Talks is approaching. Foreign correspondent Indira Lakshmanan is here. Give us the latest. Indira we have the Foreign Ministers from the six major powers negotiating into the night with iran. After dinner, they are planning to restart negotiations at 9 00 a. M. , expected to go until 3 a. M. Or longer. This is not a done deal. John kerry has stressed this could go either way. If it fails, we are in unknown territory. No foreign minister here is speaking about another extension. The major sticking points onvia rainy and side they want sanctions really faster and on the american side, they want to delay the lifting of a u. S. Arms embargo and they want really broad access to make sure iran never cheats over the life of this deal. In washington it will be an incredibly hard lift to sell this deal in august. Congress. Their work is not done even if they get this deal done tomorrow night. Back to you, mark and heidi. Mark now joining us, richard hoss. Richard, thank you for coming in. Skeptics, people are open to supporting it, but skeptical. Some people on capitol hill, if you are a skeptic, based what has come out of it, what are you worried about . This has to come through or i cannot support this . Richard probably the biggest thing for skeptics is inspections. A little bit of concern for too much sanctions relief too soon. My own concern is less that. I am more concerned about what happens if iran complies . 10 years from now, they can do whatever they want with centrifuges. The cost of that, we will face a daily problem with many of its neighbors. Managing that will be a permanent challenge to american foreignpolicy. Heidi but if the deal is not quite there, could it face pressure from its negotiating partners to sign on and then what happens . Richard sure, if things break down, the most important thing you do not want the breakdown to be perceived as the United States moving the goalposts. Its one thing if the iranian government says you cannot have inspections that reasonable people would find essential. It seems to me the sanctions unravel. Mark does iran have a strong hand at this point in the negotiation . Richard sure. Mark what is the source of strength for them . Richard you have china and russia that are relatively sympathetic. You have a United States government that clearly does not want things to fail. Each side is in some ways limited by what it does not want. What keeps iran in the deal is their desire and need for sanctions relief for the economic bonus that will provide to the government. Mark lets switch to the other big story of the day, greece. Nobody knows what is going to happen. Lets say worstcase, greece leaves the euro and the european union. What are the implications if that happens . Richard in some ways, probably less than people think. It would highlight some of the structural problems that europe got ahead of itself. On the german side, it might be salutory in some respects. Russia does not offer an economic alternative to greece. The real problem is economics. Whether this weakens, not just europe, but the world economy. Heidi do you think this referendum vote could have politics at play in terms of the greeks just wanting a better bailout deal . Richard 100 . Im not speaking for greece, but that is what this is. The government saying, its not just us. It is the greek people. They dont point out the wording of the resolution. If they had had a referendum saying, do you want to stay in the euro . 60 of the people would have said yes. This was simply built to strengthen their bargaining position. They are still hoping the germans and the europeans will blink. Im not sure its going to happen. With the banks closed, how do you keep people alive . The greek government will have to issue some kind of new script, a new drachma, we will give you some money to tide you over for a couple days. That is where we are. Mark outside of greece and merkel, who are the huge players that will define how this goes forward . Richard its not the United States, interestingly enough. The imf, Christine Lagarde has a role. The odd thing about the french government, one of the reasons the German Government is hanging so tough is it is worrying about Southern Europe. France is at the end of that line. The most important country ultimately in Southern Europe after italy is france. That is what the germans are worried about. Mark in the end, does this matter . Does it matter a lot, a little . Richard probably less than people think. I would be worried about the chinese economy. The stock market there is down 30 over the last couple of days. No, i dont think this is when we are done with the year i do not think this will be the central story by any means. Heidi do you think u. S. Deficit hawks, understanding the situations are very different, but given the dialogue going on in the u. S. , they will draw parallels in the election . Richard alas not. When you think about what we have our deficit going up, more than anything else, it is entitlements. They are still off the board. The sequester, a lot of things it does not deal with entitlements. When rates go up, that will exacerbate our problem with the deficit and the debt. But that is in the too difficult to talk about box in american politics which is too bad. Sometime during the next presidency, some of these issues as the baby boomers begin to retire, probably around 2020 2021, these issues will really come to the four. Mark iran deal, yes or no . Richard yes. Mark wow. And greece stays in, yes or no . Richard in the long run, yes. Mark all right, thank you very much, richard haass. Well be right back with a romney. Mark in a spanking New Washington post profile, scott walkers wife jeanette talked about family tension between the governor and his sons. That reminded me of a conversation i had with mitt romneys eldest son tagg. We talked about what it was like to have a father run for president twice. It was a huge privilege. It does not mean it was easy the whole time. There were high points and low points. It was challenging. I think you take it more seriously as the family of the candidate, but yeah, it was a fantastic experience. Mark we often talk about when someone runs a second time, they are a better candidate. Your dad was a better candidate the second time. What was easier for the family . Tagg i remember people came and talked to us and they said weve got this thing the second time you knew right from the what it was going to be. Mark was there something you learned the first time you are able to apply to the second time . Tagg you knew what it was going to be and you just developed the thicker skin. Mark 16 candidates and some have kids tagg i think theyre more than 16. Mark most of them have kids. What kind of advice would you give to those families, those who are teenagers and above. Tagg i have spoken to a few of them. My advice is enjoy it. Be yourself, dont be afraid to speak out when you have an opinion. Dont let the consultants or the experts shame you into being quiet, and try to stand up for your parent, because you know them better than anyone else does. Mark consultants really do that . Tagg sometimes. Mark one of the most heartening things i have seen in the whole cycle so far, ted cruzs little girls, they were concerned how they would react, and they came out on the stage and were waving and they seemed pretty into it. Tagg you can get used to anything. It becomes the new normal. And it is ok. Mark your dad is staying neutral in the race for a while. Is your plan to do the same thing . Tagg i am. I plan to wholeheartedly support whoever the republican candidate is. Well let the process play itself out. Mark there has been talk of you running for Public Office here or in massachusetts. Is that something you are open to . Tagg no. I ruled that out. For a long time, i thought i might, but watching the process i do not want to put my kids through it. I am ruling out for the next 15 years at least. Mark how old will you be . Tagg i will be 60. Mark you are interested in public service, but i think what youre saying is you do not want to put your kids through isnt that a little discouraging for the country that someone who seen it up close and personal is saying, i dont want my kids to go through what i went through . Tagg you know, i have worried about this for a while. There are a lot of good people i would love to see run for office, and who do not want to do it. I do not know what the answer is. Its certainly a problem. Mark your grandfather served in Public Office. Your dad did. Will family politics die tagg my brother josh. Im encouraging to run for governor mark of which state . Tagg utah. Thats is a little ways off. Mark do you think he would require a lot of convincing . Tagg i dont think so. Mark what would be a good slogan for his campaign . Tagg i am taggs younger brother. Mark thats big in utah. The clintons, the obamas have been pretty good at shielding their daughters from scrutiny is there a lesson from that . They said, we are not going to put our kids out front and center. Can a candidate say that . My kids are not going to campaign. We would ask that you not scrutinize them . Tagg i think so. My daughter was on the campaign trail last time. She stayed off camera and we asked the cameras to stay off of her. Mark and it worked. Tagg i think it is possible. Tagg romney, thank you very much. So, tagg romney and his brothers have become professional offspring of a president ial candidate. Scott walkers sons and his wife seem to be more inclined toward samesex marriage than scott walker is for sure. How big a deal in this field with a lot of younger kids do you think this issue is going to be, spouses or kids being different on issues than their candidates relative . Heidi i do not think it was a surprise to anyone that members of families have different opinions . In some ways that makes the candidate even more relatable, and on this specific issue, its not going to hurt scott walker with evangelicals. It may even help them with Younger Voters if he should make it to a general election. Mark i think you are right, but you do see some conservatives reacting to this Washington Post story and saying, wait a minute, if scott walker is getting all of this pressure at home, right after he gave the interview and did not talk about samesex marriage in a way conservatives may be looking you saw laura bush taking different positions than her husband on a few issues, but in this nomination fight where there is so much pressure and competition, i think if you handle it wrong, it can be a big problem, particularly with these younger kids that are not experienced with national politics. Heidi at the end of the day scott walkers position is what it is and conservatives may be watching this closely, but if he becomes the candidate for the party, i think it will all come out in the wash. Mark and like you said, who agrees with their family on everything . All right, we will be right back. Mark we are always on bloombergpolitics. Com. A great piece on debates. Remember, this program is on twice a day at 5 00 and at 8 00. We will be back tomorrow. A big political news day. Iran, of course, and Hillary Clintons interview. We will talk about it all right here on with all due respect. Until then, sayonara. With xfinity from comcast you can manage your account anytime, anywhere on any device.
