Focus should be, china. im interested to see, theres a president of the resident is supposed to be in beijing sometime early november. im interested to see his meeting with the president of china. at the end of the day, china is going to have to put up or shut up. i think that is the redline right now for the president. but in this focus on north korea, i get it, i get the it but this is just getting back and forth. i think the real talk is with china to see if they are going to. >> kennedy: let...

The numbers. there is a pew research poll and study done earlier this month that showed that 2/3 of the news coverage about president trump since inauguration has been negative. it focuses on his personality rather than on his policy. if you compare it to george w. bush and bill clinton and barack obama, it is twice as negative in his first year as it was for them. so the numbers speak for themselves. i do think there has been a little bit of confusion with this "new york times" statement. i thi...

In county jail for two or three days and being released back out. criminal recidivism. its a senseless loss of life it could have been prevented by administrations and officials and bureaucracies following the law, adhering to the law in the books. it seems public safety felt as i place at the expense of a really proactive policy on immigration as it relates to illegal criminal aliens. >> jesse: kimberly makes the point that it was a preventable tragedy. the media still does not want to talk to ...

You to you. you say or rather right, in the fireside chat roosevelt observed that others "refused to look the danger squarely in the eye until it has them by the throat." do you think there are some in this country who have some power or influence who are not looking the danger of north korea squarely in the eye? >> i think the obama administration spent eight years not looking the danger squarely in the eye and i dont think they looked the iranian threat in the eye either. during this entire pe...

Changing people on these boards and commissions that have such a pervasive growth, the fcc, the federal communications commission, the food and drug administrations, and the senate is in the personnel business, we work with him to get the government staff, not to mention justice neil gorsuch and other judicial appointments that are coming through the pipeline that president trump i think didnt get nearly enough credit for the changes that hes brought about that are unrelated to legislation. but ...

We were doing? >> well, they are going to brief us next week why they were there and what they were doing. i got a little insight. i can say this to the families, they were there to defend america. they were there to prevent a platform. >> senator graham didnt know we had 1,000 troops in niger, did you? >> no, i did not. >> lindsey graham on the armed services committee. how unusual is it that neither knew there were 1,000 troops in niger and they are conducting operations? >> unfortunately, it ...

Granularity in briefings. the head of africom briefed them saying i have too little isr. that means drone overhead intelligence. he said up to a quarter of the time, he didnt have what he needed to protect his troops and feed them intelligence. he also said he didnt have enough medical support to help troops in need. we have seen that tragically play out in niger. >> in addition to that, it has been an extraordinary week, particularly hearing from former presidents, seeing all five former u.s. p...

>> i think this is going to be this administrations benghazi. this is going to be trumps benghazi, trumps niger. they need to concentrate on what happened and what is happening. reporter: appearing to be ready to let this controversy move on anytime soon. president trump spending the day at his golf course in virginia one week after golfing with rand paul and lindsey graham pentax farm continues to be at the top of their to-do list. right behind it, health care and especially the bipartisan alex...

This week by former president obama and bush was a much more powerful message. tonights effort is a very positive message to relieve those in puerto rico, virgin islands, houston and florida. and thats a very good thing. i always enjoy seeing our former presidents, regardless of the partisan rancor that might have occurred during their administrations, coming together. i think its symbolic of the strength of our republican and our democratic process. i think, though, that these -- many of the po...

And end this insanity and focus on getting the answers as to what happened to those american heroes. >> absolutely. jason, i want to bring you into the conversation now. because you say everyone in the white house is on their own. i mean, i have to ask you, how much of president trumps approach to the truth is contagious? do people around him say, hey, he doesnt care about the truth, so why should we care about the truth? >> well, i think everyone in the white house tries to get things right eve...
