With his gut on key moments on several political and policy fronts. >> his tone drew swift pushback from many inside and outside of washington. among them ohio governor john kasich. a true leader offers hope. doesnt take hope from innocent children who call america home. remember, today is easter sunday. this from republican congresswoman leyton. such a strong message of love and new beginnings from donald trump on easter sunday. get the sarcasm there. we have more from white house correspondent...

Here? >> well, the president is operating off a mindset that thinks about goods as the only relevant thing in this equation. of course, theyre not. services are incredibly important. in fact, services are one of the huge sources of american exports across the world. but the presidents world view is sort of -- as reflected in his comment on things like coal and steel, has to do with factories and images of people digging things out of the ground, and doesnt take account for what the modern econom...

A lot of individuals would like to work at the white house, but a lot of people were exiting. there were r a lot of talented people that like to give back, but when you think about the environment that exists within this administration, a lot of those individuals are going to say im not willing to put other things on the line to do this. its just not worth it. its difficult to work with a leader who doesnt take advice. the president as the commander-in-chief should set a tone and an environment ...

>> im joined by retired general barry mccaffrey, whos also the white house drug czar during the clinton administration. and vicky cornell, her husband singer chris cornell died last year after battling drug addiction. thank you for being her. vicky, i want to start with you. i want to send my condolences for your loss. and i just want to let you talk. what is your message today? >> i think that we have a deadly epidemic that is taking 174 lives a day. and thats due to drug overdoses alone, doesn...

Talking. but i havent requested any meeting. but well see what happens. >> coming a long way from fire and fury, mike pence in asia on his way to what could be direct talks with the north koreans at the olympics. rex tillerson hinted at that earlier in the day in a news conference in peru. joining me is an nbc contributor ed price and richard stengle, an msnbc political analyst as well. rick, were talking about diplomacy here. something that doesnt take place very often, but what pence quickly s...

Refused to bring up priorities that would allow democrats to vote for a budget. we all understand that republicans have the majority. they did manage to pass the bill, the continuing resolution here in the house. when you get to the senate and you know that you need 60 votes and let me be clear, the continuing resolution in the senate failed also with republican votes going over to the no side because they know that this continuing resolution is not a good idea. there are very specific things th...

>> im sure it matters to them a lot but they will weigh that in an election setting. whos is worse, how bad is the offense and how does it stack up to their apology and contrition afterwards, but the thing is, these are political decisions fundamentally. its unsatisfying for everybody. right? you want there to be a framework he has to submit to bethe problem, there really isnt and the ethics committee is definitely not it. >> what happens -- what should happen to al franken? hes arguably done th...

Campaign or that there were any ties between the campaign and russians. and boris, as you said, we expect in the coming weeks hope hicks and others to be interviewed about all this by the special counsel. >> shimon, tell us about this, by thewith russian propaganda? >> yeah, so this is kind of an interesting way of perhaps being somewhat transparent for facebook. this has to do obviously with some of the fake news, some of the ads that the russians bought on facebook. and the only way that users...
