He only had a high school degree. what happened as a result of these accelerations is that the demands for every middle class job got pulled up. the thing that sustained the american middle class in the 60s, 70s and 80s, you could get high wages for middle skills, that got completely wiped out. theres a lot of people today who are feeling the effects of that. now you need a plan to succeed. as i explained in the book, you have to update it every four years. >> is it possible to harness, to chann...

He may be tweeting them out. i woke up this morning thinking, i cant even imagine anyone has a straight face argument to not have an independent investigation. trump is leaking or hes whining of conspiracy theories. in either case, its time. >> perry, i gave the president credit for a well executed speech on tuesday night. it was a more conciliatory, a softer version of president trump. doesnt seem like thats going to last given the twitter feed this morning. >> right. i think it couldnt last be...

Positive purpose? if so, what do we do with it? >> really good question. i think its a challenge for the democratic party, to acknowledge that angst and to affirm why people are feeling that way, but try to take it in a positive direction. and i have a chapter in the book called how we turn ai into ia. how we turn artificial intelligence into intelligence assistance. the core is built around at&ts human resources department, how everyone has to become a lifelong learner. so the days when you cou...

Damning. these stories were so strong and so well sourced and so potentially could change the presidency. the other thing i would say about the tweets today is donald trump is not answering the central question. the central question is why were your associates talking to the russians during the election cycle particularly while the russians were hacking our election. if donald trump could give an answer to that broad question, it would reduce some of these stories. right now hes saying -- his st...

I think, michael, as you look at this wider story, the real story here is that president trump has been excusing the behavior of vladimir putin. president trump has not criticized putins annexation of crimea. president trump has mused that we should just lift the sanctions imposed on putin for his grand larceny in crimia. this soft position of president trump contradicts the policy of every american president since truman. thats the core of the substantive problem, the weak policies of president...

Manufacturing the goods that i should be, and along comes this simplistic explanation that says, obama was tapping the trump tower, it makes it more palatable. it gives me something where i can say, yeah, damn it, thats the sort of thing going on today, right? >> theres no question. what people hunger for most, michael, and the reason i think they took a chance on trump is something -- my friend don pointed this out to me, a communications director for the clinton administration. he said people ...

For the latest, joining me now two is who have written on that, perry bacon, junior, senior political writer of the 538.com, and juliette kayyem, host of the skiff podcast and national security analyst for cnn. perry, i thought you did a real nice job of laying out the three possible scenarios. briefly, what are they? >> what i was trying to describe is a question about why were the russians talking to the trump campaign during the campaign. the three ideas i laid out were, one, the most serious...

That was made available to both the democratic and republican staff members of the senate foreign relations committee. they marked that information classified, so i cannot tell you what was in that information. i can tell you in my response it was not changed by the information that was made available. we already had a lot of public information out there. >> okay. respecting the fact that its classified information, can you nevertheless tell me whether youre concerned that there was a worldwide ...

Administration and the officials. thats the central question. nancy pelosi and schumer have over played their hands. they talk about recusal admission of guilty. thats ridiculous notion. they called for him to resign, he has been in office for three weeks, that seems to be at this point over drawn in the regular course. im sure the oversight committees will have an opportunity to question the attorney general and this matter will come up, during the hearing of rod -- >> what i would do, accordin...
