Gorsuch spokesperson who basically confirmed the accuracy of the quote you gave. but interesting only to hear it secondhand. maybe well learn a lot more as the hearings approach. i hope youll come back on msnbc again. >> great. thank you very much, are rich. >> thank you. now coming up, how many sitting senators said things on the floor about other senators that are pretty much obviously worse than what senator warren quoted about jeff sessions without getting silenced by mitch mcconnell? we h...

Jeff, i want to get your take on those two characterizations. is there any accuracy at all? >> i would go back to what i said before. it is the job of the media. it is the drop of toros -- of white house correspondence to report the news. at air force one, you just show those shots. and how the news as governing. im not going to get into describing adjectives or assigning adjectives to that coverage. i think it is important for us to do the jobs. i think the tone that the president and his peopl...

Campaign with donald trump, the big issue for workers were wages. a lot of them felt like there had been 13, 14, 15 years since the average worker received a pay raise. these new numbers that came out today show a tiny increase in wages. >> let me interrupt. during the campaign, he would belittle the accuracy of these numbers. now he doesnt any longer. now he seems to accept what the bureau of labor statistics is putting out. that represents a change. >> well, if he likes the numbers, hes going ...
