President, dig in, hang in, were going to win this fight. they didnt win the fight. they got sagging poll numbers. why does president trump continue to listen to jared kushner as his de facto chief of staff when the advice time and again has frankly been terrible? >> i dont know. makes no sense to me. listen, i just say this to you. this is part of the issue of having family work for you. right? i mean, ive always said i never wanted any members of my family working for me because if i had to fi...

Likable side of dratonald trump? >> absolutely. the black caucus came in and i think they expected to hate him but he came in and he was very gregarious. it just kind of the way that -- he is a great host. >> which by the way, that was a funny moment because we were at war with trump for the entire campaign but jared said, hey, we want you to at least come over and look at the campaign room. they opened up the door, we walked in and there was an audible gasp, like who let the enemies in? >> that...

Debate. there are a lot of people that will be pissed off by what chris just said. mika and i heard time and again from people we respected most in government, whether it was robert gates, one of the greats i think or general hayden, so many people said we only have one president and got to do everything we can do to try to help that president. so that goes along with chriss argument. >> i guess, but were in a different time. i dont. i think at some point you got to take a stand. take a side. >>...

Ago and talked with him about the chief of staff job. one of the things i said was anybody who takes this job should not have jared or ivanka report to them because its folly to think that they would. they report to you. theyre your responsibility. and if a chief of staff wants to be successful in this job, then thats the way that reporting has to be. i think we need to be realistic about this and so i cant answer that question, willie, because i dont know. >> so jared gives the worst advice, th...

When both plans were looked at right before the election, you had objective people saying our plan was even ahead of where hillary and her plan and her team was. we put together this extraordinary thing. because a couple of people decide they want to be in charge, jared, steve bannon and rick dearborn, they throw all that work out. and what i say in the book is the countrys still paying the price for that because you cannot put this thing together in 71 days, especially when youve never been in ...

Ruckus. he pushed for the hiring of manafort during the campaign, and you can go over your list of things. and christie is not forgiving to jared because, of course, they have a long history. he put his father in jail. and he believes -- >> thats a huge one. >> and then wouldnt release him from jail early. he believes jared has stood in his way with this white house, and dont forget, christie was fired from the transition after trump got elected, and who took over the transition, basically, was ...

Son-in-law adviser jared kushner the day after michael flynn, the national security adviser, has been fired. and trump says that the russia issue is over because of the firing, and kushner agrees with him. he basically parrots that assessment and christie says he essentially says, yeah, im not so sure about that. what do you think about this anecdote? >> its not surprising given ki christies relationship with jared, and i think the way kushner has portrayed, and there is truth to it, that hes so...

More from him. but im not sure what that speaks to in terms of the presidents culpability or jareds culpability. i think it speaks more to their naivety rather than their criminal nature. >> thanks for your expertise. >> senator kamala harris formally kicks off her campaign for 2020. with a crowded democratic field what does she need to do to stand out? >> and keeping the door open, new reporting that hillary clinton may have her eye on a third presidential run.

Dinn dinner. john kerry aimed the zingers at trump, who skipped. i sent a note to my team over the wean. weve got to get chris on delivering the zingers because there was no cameras so youre that guy. before we make you do that, that head table was mighty empty. im going to do a lot of impressions. a lot like rich little. yes, heres the thing. as you mentioned, president trump invited for three years has never gone, but the rest, vice president pence, karen pence as well as ivanka, none shows up...
