The president has had kid gloves a bit toward mueller, saying in december he thought mueller would treat him fairly, following his lawyers advice not to attack mueller that much on twitter, breaking from that only in recent weeks. but the president, as we have to remember, still has an interview decision to make about mueller. will he willingly sit down and talk to him? and given the recent events, will the president now take a more adversarial tone and say, okay, mr. mueller, you want to talk t...

About openly. he talks to his friends about it. he talks to his advisers about it. he certainly thinks a lot about it. hes even sort of broached the subject publicly, even telling us in july he wouldnt have made sessions the attorney general if he knew he was going to recuse himself. obviously we dont know what the presidents going to do. hes an unpredictable person. will he fire mueller? everyone in washington asks that question. who knows? what i do think well see here is a more adversarial to...

Something that is utterly ridiculous and absurd to attempt to change the narrative, attempt to change our focus from stormy daniels to whatever it is he seems fit so were not talking about the alleged affair by this woman or alleged payout by his person or attorney. >> you were probably listening to the discussion with barbara mcquade. what is your reflection on the statement she was making about why the legal team is in flux, since were talking about the two cabinet secretaries which seems also...

I bet theyll just end up subpoenaing -- >> ryan, it is reminiscent of the campaign when candidate trump kept talking about a rigged system. that seems to be sort of now all the institutions are rigged against him. >> all rigged against him. thats probably why he liked this new lawyer, who has been on fox news saying that the entire investigation is rigged, and its a conspiracy at the fbi to frame donald trump. look, this legal team, as gloria has been reporting, has deny divided for months now b...
