Serious allegation. >> and for folks who might be seeing this picture for the first time, she is the woman on the left just over trumps right shoulder, the blond woman. she is the one who has made this allegation. you mentioned his response. it is forceful. it hits back on a number of levels here. but on that one point saying he never met when there is photographic evidence, but also alleging a political motivation here even comparing this to what happened to brett kavanaugh. its sort of a great...

Happened to brett kavanaugh. its sort of a greatest hits of the presidents defenses, is it not, when faced with allegations like this? >> it is. but i also think that you have to look at it in the context of where we are right now in terms of the election cycle and thats the prism for that response. there was a part if anyone knows shes working with the democrats, please let me know and i think you are increasingly going to see any allegation, whether its this kind or something else, i think you...

You get things done is youve got to work with the other half of the room and there is an enormous part of the democratic party saying no. >> i think the problem is not that it makes him seem like a segregationist or seen through a prism of race but makes him seem old. im all for working together and reaching across the aisle but bragging about working with the dixiecrats is like bragging about working with the w.i.g.s. i expected him to end that by telling the reporters to get off his lawn. this...

Want the status quo. the status quo is only working for those rich people that he was speaking to. it is not working for everyone else. in addition, i think on a day where were having an historic hearing where were actually seriously having a conversation about reparations, which is not some, you know, side issue that we shouldnt be talking about. its about structural reforms to ensure that people who have a legacy and ancestry going back to slavery or jim crow actually have a leg up so that the...
