Than any other american president. so from his point of view, it was very successful. there were fewer protests than we expected, but it would be fair to say, guys, that president trump is not the most popular president in britain or, indeed, in europe. his approval or affection ratings are extremely low and i think there is no questions that america has lost a lot of its soft power in europe on some of the things hes said, insulting the british prime minister, insulting the mayor of london. he ...

One is a daughter. but to have eric and donald junior there, who are running the businesses, isnt that an unusual crossover? >> of course its an unusual crossover, and the fact that the president likes to stay at places he owns. isnt he going to go to scotland at some point on this trip? so eric trump, i think, is one of the officers of the trump organization. so he was just making sure that dads reservation was kept. >> you had an interesting anecdote for me or assessment about how donald trump...

Difficult. while candidate fighting has not reached lord of the flies yet, elbows are getting sharper as 2020 candidates try to separate themselves from the pack. >> im proud to have stood up to donald trump more than anyone in the senate. >> if we want to beat trump, socialism is not the answer. >> im the governor who doesnt think we should be ashamed of values. >> i have a lot of respect for jobe. >> i dont mean any disrespect for the vice president. >> hes a mentor and friend. >> a tremendous...

Watergate generation turned it over to us. >> im running out of time and i want to get you on two other issues here. there was an article in the "washington post" about bipartisanship today, part of it has to do with joe biden talking about whether or not we should be reaching out the democratic party should be reaching out to republicans, we being him in this case. you were asked directly whether democrats should vote for joe biden and your response was, i dont think we need to go backward. we ...

Speaker pelosi and with my democratic colleagues who are demanding an impeachment inquiry as they call it right now. we need accountability. that ought to be our guiding principle. whether it is in the congress through an impeachment proceeding or in the courts, were in the court of public opinion at the ballot box. but whats really important here is that we know what we have in common which is there ha of have to be hearings. and it comes back to the power of television, the word from bob muell...

Essentially what already everybody else embraced, yes, the russians were trying to help russia get elected, something that vladimir putin would say on stage saying he thought he would fare better for the u.s. and russia relations. we should point out that the idea that they were trying to help the democrats is not it. they hacked into democratic e-mails and published them in order to hurt hillary clinton. thats laid out pretty clearly. >> either way it takes the narrative away from robert muelle...

Of this gathering or just what it is were talking about here? >> well, brian, this was a very easy trip for the president to make. it was almost completely ceremonial to meet the new emperor which only happens once in a generation. the president had no big policy lifts. yet, he managed to absolutely whiff it. he stood up there on the stage. he said i dont know whether or not these missile tests were a u.n. security council violation. i agree with sue, these were violations. it shows the region a...
