People in the position, and theres no way of getting around the white house counsel having to be a traffic cop for an awful lot of this information. no way around it. >> john, ive got ten seconds left, and i have to get this in. the president has denied anyone in his campaign had contact with russia. that has proven false. michael flynn, george papadopoulos. they all pled guilty to lying to the fbi on the russia matter. does it seem possible that trump was left in the dark about all this? >> no,...

For what that trump tower meeting was about. it was not about adoptions, as that first statement said. it was, in fact, they went into that room, expecting to be given dirt on hillary clinton. then, of course, theres the prospect of lying to the fbi, which weve already seen two guilty pleas for. michael flynn and george papadopoulos. on that point, just to be clear, on the larger issue of meeting with the special counsel, the president last year said he would do it in a second. today, he was equ...

9th, and then you gave and wrote a statement that said it was only about russian adoptions. i mean, theres no place to hide from the truth here, because theres been so many leaks and statements and testimony. we dont know whos cooperating. and mcgann is in a very difficult position, because i believe he was involved in at least one revision of the letter firing comey. so its just an impossible situation. the investigation is, i think, submerged the white house as a viable governing entity. >> ve...

Very proud of my daughter ivanka, champion, shes a champion. >> richard painter and matt miller. >> one of the first times ive agreed with steve bannon on anything. this meeting was a betrayal of the united states to a foreign adversary. it doesnt necessarily meet the constitutional definition of treason, only kicks in when were in a state of declarative war. but to collude with agents of the russian government for purposes of gaining dirt on your political opponents and then apparently discussi...

Later on july 2017 crafted a misleading statement about it on air force one where he says it was about russian adoptions and it manifestly was not. >> of course, the steve bannon, the claim that steve bannon made in this book is that theres no way that these people would have come into trump tower and not be taken up to that -- his office and introduced to the man himself. but they say jonathan, that that never happened? >> steven miller didnt deny it on tv today. i thought that was curious. i d...

Throwing his son under the bus. >> the president of the united states really believed the meeting was about adoption. even though anyone knows adoption is a code word for sanctions. why say its about adoption? >> i dont think adoptions is u used synonymously with sanctions. >> yeah, it is. >> its code for the magnitsky act. >> you would think the president of the united states has some professionals -- >> as someone who voted for sanctions. >> you never heard of the magnitsky act? >> ive heard o...

Be a suggestion they were trying to have the true audience be mueller and his team. one would hope mueller and his team are probably much more well versed in this than certainly the nonmedia savvy trump campaign team was, but mueller already knows this. >> jason, this gets to an essential legal question here. and i should note its not just michael wolffs book of this air force one meeting crafting a false statement of what that trump tower meeting was about saying it was about russian adoptions ...

President had great input, in fact, on the statement crafted on board air force one about the trump tower meeting and that statement we know did not give the whole story. it didnt give the part that really matters here and the president knew it. he wanted to make sure that hillary clinton stuff wasnt revealed. do you see a crime here? >> well, you dont have a crime in making a false public statement, but what it is, is a part of what seems to be a tendency of the white house to go to cover up wh...

To the media, it may be a suggestion that they were trying to have the true audience be mueller and his team. one would hope that mueller and his team probably much more well versed in this than certainly the nonmedia savvy trump campaign team was. but this is what mueller already knows. >> let me ask you this, this gets to an essential legal question here. and i should note that its not just michael wolffs book that has the details of this air force one crafting of the meeting. saying it was ab...

With the russians and spokesman felt according to the book that the statement amounted to obstruction of justice. whats your reaction to that? i think its one more piece of evidence, if it is true that the president participated in the development of a fake story about russian adoptions to camouflage the real meaning of that russian meeting between trump officials and the russians, thats just one more piece of evidence. but one of the things that is so frustrating as you watch all of these thing...
