And when you look at some of thele forring that we inpollin seem that the american voter is giving credibility the same weight that people in the media and washington, d.c. are. >> that is an excellent point. his approval rating has been remarkedbly stable. and that is them overlooking what is beyond reasonable doubt with this president to use a legal term. i guess speaking faulgs hoods and misleading statements and lies at an exfoe thexponentiallr clip than his predecessors. more than 3,000 fal...

In 2017. and obviously donald trump was president of the united states at that time. whats he trying to do here by not being honest? >> look, he always tries to compare and contrast himself with his predecessor. he doesnt always use facts on which to base the distinction between the two. so as you correctly point out, two of the three were arrested in north korea while he was president. if you run the clock back, the last time we had prisoners released from north korea, it was because jim clappe...

Thats a good sign. probably will be released, because kim is facing nuclear annihilation at the end of his regime, its easy to get status, releasing three prisoners, since everything hes done, unlike lis predecessors, going to the olympics, hes still keeping labor camps and hundreds of thousands of people. going through the same steps that his father went through when he said ill knock down a reactor, some yurnlist can come, in i want a nuclear-free world. hes getting applause, and all of the th...

Some of them were terrible people, some of them were competent people -- he resists the urge of being managed. and i think anyone who goes in and tries to put order in and tries to keep him off his phone and tries to keep him -- you know, some sense of getting him to do the work of the presidency is like a baseball manager waiting to get fired. >> youre agreeing with that. why is that? >> agree and disagree at least in the short-term. i do think we have seen john bolton and pompeo come in, and a...

Bornstein is and between what ronny jackson gave, we know -- we dont know the truth about this presidents health. i think hes not the healthiest president weve ever seen but i think we know less accurate information about his health than almost any of his predecessors in recent history. >> well, we know its astonishing excellent as this segment was, thank you. or astonishing extraordinary, sorry, missing my adjectives. next the israeli prime minister under fire for his big production attacking...

Said that he respects the job of the next president and theres only one president at a time but president trump sometimes takes a shot at former presidents with regard to how they handle these things. heres a sound bite as an example. >> other presidents should have solved this problem long before i got here. theyve been talking for 25 years and you know what happened? nothing. the bush administration did nothing. >> martha: what goes through your mind when you hear that? >> what goes through my...

So it has worked. it has brought these. i mean, look, if the president of south korea is willing to give trump credit for making this happen, we have to acknowledge that he has more information and he has much more at stake than we do. so thats not the same thing as saying he deserves a nobel prize, lets be clear. just because the nobel commit ent committee lowered the bar for obama doesnt mean theyll do it for trump. >> or is the south korean president playing to president trump saying i say so...

Liability. >> the other piece of this is, of course, the broad lack of vetting, shall we say, among the trump administration which has also caught ronny jackson, the white house physician now withdrawn secretary -- to be the secretary of veterans affairs. the times is out with reporting tonight essentially saying they didnt have any warning that the president was going to do that -- im sorry its the post reporting that not the "new york times." the background investigation wasnt done. he surpris...

He eventually took up martial arts and channeled some of that anger. he watched on tv. in particular there was a series called "the sword and the shield" that really glorified the role of the predecessors of the kgb. and thats the kind of spy that vladimir putin grew up wanting to be. and actually, it was in his german class that he finally, you know, sort of buckled down and that seemed to help him focus his energy and he eventually then went on to law school and tried to figure out what would ...

These other billionaires with their private space shuttles to use cape canaveral. i didnt know we were charging a fee to use these facilities. thats good for the treasury, i guess. i dont think i ever heard anybody tout the accuracy rate of tomahawk missiles that struck some sites in syria. with the boom, boom bing, the patriotic crowd enjoyed his approach to universal affairs. reporter: in terms of dealing with the other world leaders. he kept coming back to this notion i dont blame them for ta...
