Writing. but you never know. he is unpredictable. he said he wants to testify as you heard the mayor say right there. keep if mind this idea of the possible threat the president kind of tossed out there on twitter today, jon, about possibly looking into unrevealed conflicts of interest. that should make for very interesting question today at the briefing at 2:00. back to you. >> it was an interesting choice of words. other shoes could be dropping. >> thats it. >> kevin corke at the white house. ...

Russian people about these events? >> first, the president congratulates him and looks forward to a time when we can hopefully have a good relationship with russia. however, the united states believes that everyone has a right to be heard and assemble peacefully. >> sarah, thank you. president has said in the past that the russia investigation is an excuse for democrats losing the 2016 election. but today he appeared to look forward to the 2018 mid-terms and tweeted out, quote, this is phony wit...

Special counsel robert mueller, mr. trump should worry americans will stop believing anything he says. >> this should bother us from the standpoint of leadership as americans. we want a president who we can trust. that i think is very separate from the political question that robert brought up, which is what do the american people think for mid-terms. the answer is, theyre not listening. this is just so much chatter. who cares about the person you call a porn actress? who cares about all these l...

Why doesnt he just do the interview? what is he hiding from the american people? if he truly believes hes innocent, robert mueller is the only person that can clear his name. so it is mystifying to me why he wouldnt do the interview. >> representative, it has been said in one of the headlines we were reading this morning that special counsel mueller perhaps might consider that during the time of the mid-terms -- we know were just in the start of it, right? in the heat of it. youre there in south...

Evangelicals and their support, the trump effect on them. is he losing any sort of si stickiness. >> he is losing some support from white evangelical women based on some research made from the pew research center to the "washington post." the reason some white women still support trump is any races going forward in the mid-terms, if we base it off of what we saw in alabama and virginia and pennsylvania, will be won by small percentage point. so he really cannot afford to lose, it appears, just e...

Opinions. i think one thing we can support on both sides of the ace sell voter participation. right now 18% of 18 to 24-year-olds participate in mid-terms and thats unacceptable. >> the thing is this is just simply about doing your civic duty and voting. and we can get a lot of people registered to vote. but they dont show up at polls when they need to. another thing we are focusing on is making it accessible and easier and making sure people are educated with the vote. and they use the resource...

The march that sort of interest would wane. for yoekz is on mid-terms. is that right? >> exactly. and right now what we are trying to do we have the ambitious goal of getting 90% of high schoolers registered to vote by june. i think its something we can do. there is over 26,000 high schools across perk. we need every one of them to sign up through head count to create their own voter registration vote to ensure kids get out and vote regardless of opinions. i think one thing we can support on bot...

Used to boast itself as being an average joe coalition of americans who are trying to protect their second amendment rights and now you will see that they are getting a lot of kickbacks from gun manufacturers. so i dont necessarily think trump is scared of the nra, i think trump is very >> i think people in the situation that would be scared would be the nra. theories this is the first time they had the and vice president come out to the annual convention for the nra. what they are seeing is the...
