But this was taken to another level and you just wonder about so many different things when you see something like this from the president of the united states of america. >> no kidding, april. but john, i dont want to gloss over the idea we got away from the standard on camera press briefing and now doing audio only. this is a major shift. >> this is a major shift. lets be honest for it. its an attempt to contain the shame. people too often have to defend the indefensible. thats the context. >>...

Sean spicer doing battle with reporters today over so-called fake news. joining me is alice. alice, help, because jack is trying to hog the entire panel. and were talking about the language and what happened today -- >> i am getting ganged up on. >> no, youre just saying crazy things. >> i dont believe that. >> youre not being ganged up on. youre sometimes defending the indefensible. i want to talk about hope hicks who put out this response today. president trump, let me tell you what its about....

Her political career certainly appears over. what was striking is how with what has been taking place in montana, we still live in an environment where there is a constant back and forth. no rest for the weary. >> no kidding. not too much of a surprise that hillary clinton talks about donald trump. i was a little more surprised john boehner saying what he said about donald trump. donald trump is getting it from both sides. what do you make of the criticisms? >> well, john boehner has been libera...

Defending the indefensible. we want to get to the bottom of russia but not if it hurts this president. theyre protecting it at all costs at their own political peril. >> you know where im going here. the beltway is consumed with russia. is america consumed with health care? >> if i were -- ill put it on the other hand. if i were democrats, where would i be spending my ad dollars right now, on russia or health care? i would be spend ing it on health care, which they are. granted all these special...

Follow the tone that he sets. and so far it looks like hes letting senator burr do what he wants. and he and senator warner are like minded with how they are going to proceed forward with intel committee. so, i think that while republicans are wary of what the results are going to be, theyre keeping their distance because they just dont know whats going on. >> but ultimately, this is a question of a foreign government infiltrating, trying to manipulate, trying to attack, if you will, our soverei...

Potential tapes. was this sean spicer in that interview, the white house not wanting to try to defend the indefensible or do they want some ambiguity here about the possibility that visitors to the white house and people who speak with the president are being recorded. >> i think whats very possible is that weve seen sean spicer previously say that there are times when the president tweets and they have not yet had a conversation with him about the content of the tweet or what he meant even if t...

Your hands of him completely. but i do think that every time he does this, its harder and harder to defend the indefensible. if you look at the senators coming out against him, people like jeff flake and ben sass and john mccain, its not a good sign for a president that already has a lot of problems when you have members of his own party distancing themselves. and i think there is a trump fatigue that is taking place, certainly. >> steve moore, to you. at issue here is this dinner that happened ...

Indefensible. joni ernst will not defend anything about donald trump the person. donald trump the businessman. she said last month that donald trump should release his tax returns. she said basically what elizabeth warren said about that today. >> he promised during the campaign that he would reveal his taxes. in fact, how many clips have you got here? hed reveal them after this. hed reveal them after that. oh, then hed put it off. >> do you think he ever will? >> i dont know, but ill tell you t...

>> with the trips to florida, i do wish that he would spend more time in washington, d.c. thats what we have the white house for. we would love to see more of those state department visits in washington, d.c. i think its smart that he does business in washington, d.c. so i have had those same concerns myself. so i agree. >> when she was asked why donald trump and his daughter still manufacture goods that they sell overseas, she said this. >> maybe he puts his money where his mouth is and brings ...
