I mean, look, steve bannon is a blow hard. the only thing hes ever won was clearly last year with donald trump, and he didnt even run that campaign. he was not the campaign manager, but he came in there with his toxic brand and tried to prove that he was something that hes not, which is i guess a deal maker or a deliverer or a real strategist. and right, what we saw is the emperor has no clothes, not that i want to see that, but it is indeed what is happening with steve bannon. >> were going to ...

Its rare to see a political strategist go in such, weve never seen a political strategist who claims to be a political strategist to go in this direction. mitch mcconnell said this guy was going to destroy the party. and if, if theres a republican left who doesnt think mitch mcconnells right, i dont know who that could be. >> i mean, steve bannon wanted to, as he has always done, wanted to stick it to mitch mcconnell and the republican party. thats what this was all about. i mean, look, steve ba...

Get out in front of the president. i think its pretty safe to expect that he will talk about his immigration promises and commitments that you have heard him speak to pretty consistently. but i will let him be the deliverer of his message. he is far better at it than i. im sure he will also speak to some other national security challenges that we confront. but i do believe that he wool get the money from congress. and martha, i think its important to recognize that all of the overblown kind of p...

You would think wouldnt it make more sense for him to, in terms of, you know, his legislative agenda, try to move that through twitter? >> you know, he has multiple fronts that hes fighting here. the most important thing is this sort of russia investigation, the mueller investigation. that is a political investigation. its going to be a political trial that sort of deals with that, and it goes back to the point like you want to hear what the president has to say. he is the best deliverer of his ...

Pressure and scrutiny they have. what is your read of whats happening there? >> what was actually refreshing about the white houses i worked with particularly, i would say president obama was a person who kind of had a b.s. detector. people who overly praised him he tended to kind of be overly suspicious of. he wanted the straight facts. thats a great quality in a leader. you dont want a competition for the most psychofantic staff member because you wont get the honest facts about whats happenin...

I think this is a dangerous sign there is a rush or competition to be the deliverer of good news because things like your bad poll numbers because youre not doing a good job, no ones going to tell him that. >> jenna, i do wonder about the kind of advice hes getting and to the extent people who can tell the president hard truths very important in any organization particularly in the white house. right now he seems to be doing things utterly reckless from the legal standpoint, he keeps contacting ...
