Former GOP representative Joe Scarborough and Mika Brezinski interview newsmakers, politicians and pundits about the issues of the day. Days before according to the leak, he says there was a meeting with donald junior, with Jared Kushner, with Paul Manafort, with yates and possibly two others in which they, out of the presence of the president discussed the meet...

Up, and donald trump has been vilified, he is public enemy number one, and they are coming out in droves, looking, not committing, i think theres very few commitments so far but there are a lot of folks looking and shopping right now. >> and when you say its interesting, your perspective having been there, the size of the crowds being so incredible, mark, one of the things, though, as rick said, public enemy number one to democrats is donald trump and heres what one of the voters said about that...

But now we really do essentially know that he has. and so they can go, as rick said, and chuck said, to try to reverse this policy or they can issue essentially their own report to congress and let congress do whatever its going to do. >> my argument is not that its not the policy. it obviously is the policy. my argument is -- >> its a crummy policy. >> it says if the president cant be indicted because its so important what he does, and modern 20th century presidency was so difference from the 1...

It didnoesnt appear the presid of the united states objects to the way rudy giuliani defends him. remember during the stormy daniels payment story of a couple months ago giuliani told a couple different versions of that story. hes the kind of guy, new york guy that creates this fog machine that donald trump likes. >> right, exactly. its unclear whether theres any coordination going on outside of donald trump and giuliani. i think giuliani mentioned he had discussed this potential story leaking w...

Happening in this white house, to try to understand whats happening in this world, to try and get closer to the facts? >> youre right. giuliani is totally unhinged. he has been for a while. what hes doing, as rick said, is undermining the case so badly that i dont know why they are allowing it. theres no control at the white house. its not just the press briefing, the chief of staff, general kelly, these are probably people who would like to reassert control but cant. on the final point ill make...

To believe. so shes just going to play defense and youre going to have a lot of briefings like you had today where youre not going to get anything out of it am. >> wow, that was very insightful. >> touching on what rick said, is that clearly michael cohen overpromised and underdelivered access to the white house. and once these companies realized they werent going to get what they paid for, they stopped doing business with him. whether or not the president knew about it or not, thats the questio...

Theres a question. you hear this nationalist refrain, blood and soil, thats what the country is about, which is a euphemism for this is a country about, you know, about race, who we are, what our blood is, that sort of thing. thats not what america is about. america is about, most principally, the inherent liberty and equality of all. and our whole system of government is built upon that. and to have these former presidents break that code and decide to come out and speak to reaffirm those truth...

>> well, this is the difference between george w. bush looking at a democratic president who he knows hes going to disagree with and has policies that are very different and george w. bush fighting for the soul of the republican party. i think thats what was going on here. i mean, the comments he made, whether it had to do with immigration or whether it had to do with economic or national security policy, is all about fighting the ground. trump has gone after the establishment. hes gone after --...

To. and we have to do our best to help those people. >> how do you help those people? >> well, i think, you know, some of it is to get them into the right places where people are trained to to that. we pray, we believe, like rick said, but some of it is out of our hands. its got to be professional institutions to get them to, and i think that the big part of it is seeing it as a real disease, you may look fine, but you know what, theres something not clicking there. >> stay with me. i have a cou...

But -- like rubio -- >> the overall legislation, as rick said, is very represses ive in its essence. the gang of eight, bipartisan consensus, will do nothing, absolutely nothing, to ameliorate the worst parts of immigration policy as far as persecuting, prosecuting, jailing, deporting, rating, terrorizing, killing immigrants. nothing except add $6 billion to increase border enforcement, add more money to i.c.e. when you get down in the details, its not just devils but theres frankenstein and -- ...
