Out of this negotiation, and if theres nothing to be gained, we shouldnt hold it. >> jeremy, that advice that you just gave us, for a young man, you qualify these days as an old policy hand. who is there in the west wing or anywhere in the national security structure to at least mention that, your view just expressed, in a meeting to the president? >> well, i do think national security adviser bolton is hawkish on issues like russia and on issues like north korea, and i think hes probably very c...

National security. if theres nothing to be gained, we shouldnt hold it. >> jeremy, that advice that you just gave us, for a young man, you qualify these days as an old policy hand. who is there in the west wing or anywhere in the national security structure to at least mention that, your view just expressed in a meeting to the president? >> well, i do think national security adviser bolton is hawkish on issues like russia and on issues like north korea, and i think hes probably very concerned to...

That looks like. if he does fly all the way over there and they have a meeting, its hard to imagine him walking out without anything although it remains to be seen if that thing is something real and tangible or a victory, something he can announce and nothing happens. >>s that trouble maker john bolton? hes saying theyve got to get rid of not just nuclear, biological, chemical. hes trying to reduce them to ashes. he doesnt want to negotiate with anybody. he wants to destroy them. >> hes about u...

Got north korea all worked up when he said denuclearization of north korea would likely follow the libyan model. >> president trump: where is john bolton? the great john bolton. they think he is so nasty and tough that i have to hold him back, okay? thats pretty great. he is doing a great job. you better get some rest. we have some pretty good negotiations coming. >> you better get rest. i know for a fact that bolton gets up every day at least 4:30 and into work very early. the president has wal...

Holding up libya as a model, where libya under gadhafi gave up its nukes and then gadhafi was gone a decade later. how much sway behind the scenes are we seeing john bolton have here? >> hes an important voice, but the president has contradicted him on whether the libyan model is at play here. the president really wants denuclearization. thats what hes pushing for. the question is whether thats something that is achievable given that kim jong-uns security is paramount here. thats what the elites...

Along with what the president has said but has advised against it. he does not think kim jong-un is to be trusted. he thinks regime change would be the best course of action here. within the white house, in the last few hours theyve said there is a team of staffers that are supposed to go to singapore in the next day sor or so to won logistics of the summit. that doesnt mean the summit will happen or will happen on june 12th, but its an indication they have not quite given up on the possibility ...

Spooked the north koreans, this mention of the libya model when john bolton, national security adviser, mentioned it. he likely was talking about the deal finalized during the bush administration for gadhafi to give up chemical weapons, weapons of mass destruction, nuclear program. what kim saw was gadhafi during the bush administration, the government being overthrown, his being killed and dragged through the streets. has the u.s. put to -- to use a sloppy analogy -- put the toothpaste back in ...

Do not agree. >> brie brought up very good points and my main concern, with this being on june 12th, there were so many moving parts to this, you know, its taking me back to my active duty days, kind of shooting moving targets here and i dont think we had enough time to put this together. and i think its a smart move to delay this and donald trump doesnt like to expose his playing cards. bolton did no service to him by his comments we were going to use the libya model. i know it was taken out of...

It was something that many reported might have cooled the north koreans to going to this summit, made them stand up the americans when they got there to do some preliminary meetings, et cetera. what do you make of the role hes playing here? how confident are you in the counsel the president is getting from his national security adviser? >> pretty uncomfortable. i think vice president pence and his fox tv interview, the two of them talk about the libya model, that is just absolutely horrifying to...

Comes to that question what hes looking for. because i think a lot of folks are looking at his national security adviser, john bolton, some of the comments hes made publicly about wanting regime change in north korea, about holding up libya as a model, where libya under gadhafi gave up its nukes and then gadhafi was gone a decade later. how much sway behind the scenes are we seeing john bolton have here? >> hes an important voice, but the president has contradicted him on whether the libyan mode...
