But he doesnt listen. he views this as his direct communication mode with the american people. but as any lawyer who will tell you involved in criminal investigations, its very easy for a client to trip himself up and get in major trouble through speaking directly and through the use of social media. its a real problem, and going to be more of a problem as these investigations continue. >> may i add something to that, because one of the things weve herds allen dearthwits and others have an inter...

Bass, anson mills farrow, ramps in season, and lettuces. and this ode to all things glenn is responsible for bringing back. heirloom rice and peas, suckling ossabaw pig and chicken confit with carolina gold rice. oh, thats good. >> glenn: isnt that great? this is phenomenal. these peas are killer. >> anthony: im hitting the rice next. >> glenn: thats got the entire history of southern agriculture in it. >> anthony: right here? >> glenn: right there in that little bowl. this whole idea of having ...

Try to grow a pair themselves. >> well said. ayesha, it seems to me that the president has used every technique to intimidate mr. comey as howard said. he said, ive got tapes. be careful what you said. they talked about executive privilege. they talked about every trick. i mean they talked about -- everything they seemed to be concerned with, the fifth amendment, whatever, theyre going to keep the secrets of these meetings to themselves. now the president came out with jonathan karl today and sh...

Generally argued, hes already been breached. >> eric: i dont think trump was ever talking about those specific -- he didnt really tweet about it until after jim comey said, by the way, i have a memo that i took after a private meeting with the presidents. >> eboni: comey would argue that the response to the president tweeting -- read to her that was a response. no, the tweet came after he said i have a memo. >> eboni: then he leaked. right. he said i have these tapes and comey actually leaked at...

Lewandowski say if he was man enough he would have done it himself. thats how corey lewandowski played ball during the campaign. james comey is trying to, in his mind, trying to figure out what is the morally upright defendable mode of action and this is what he determined he felt. and again you have to go back to another piece of his testimony. he was motivated by trumps tweet about the tapes. and i think its pretty clear from yesterday, from the kasowitz statement and what the president said t...

Into that isolationist, nationalist mode flanked by steven bannon or steven miller and not necessarily those working on health care reform, tax reform. >> yeah. so i mean, i take a little issue with that. i dont know who you spoke to inside the white house saying those kind of things but i would say to those people you spoke to is dial it down a little bit and coagulate around the team and around the mission, coalesce around the team and the president. i hear this sort of national stuff, nationa...

Willing to cross some lines every once in a while. those that want a brass knuckle polit politics. cory lewandowski, the former campaign manager, hes back out there defending the president. hes in defiant, defensive mode, hes not trying to figure out how to kpacompartmentalize something like this. the way that bill clinton could more often than not. to me, this was president trump saying he wants to have a war on this, and this is going to be a political war with the special counsel, with the se...

I am convinced no matter what jonathan had said to him today, he was going to say it didnt happen, didnt happen, didnt happen. that was his mode of defense which was, you know, stonewalling. thats what its called. >> well, it seems like by doing that, hes also kind of painting himself into a corner. i mean hes emphatically denying that, you know, these things that comey said are not true. and then theyre even doubling down, and as you said, theyre going to be filing an official complaint about t...

Here. at the end of the day, a lot of smoke. no fire. i agree with matt. >> one bit of sunshine. right before the hearing started, i said these senators are a bunch of jerks and i was very nasty. i was wrong. i thought the senators did an excellent job. i thought they were serious. they didnt pontificate. they asked questions. they didnt give speeches. >> and now theyre all in speeches and they cant hear you. >> richard, what you make of what you heard today? you have jim comey testifying that h...

Statements. he might as well be standing in the east room delivering a speech. they cannot be discounted because hes making policy pronunciations on twitter. and so thats the mode of communications hes chosen, and so he has to live with that. >> he says trumps tweets are actually more important than the more formal statements coming out of the white house because they represent closer to what he believes on nearly every issue. do you agree with that? especially in the absence of regular press br...
