worked. that s a very quantifiable way of looking at it in terms of how aggressive north korea has become during that time frame, you can add iran to that list as well. what does he need to do as he moves through this trip? i think he s doing it. if he bring james taylor over to sing you ve got a friend when he visits japan or south korea, because he doesn t have to. he showing that the u.s. is the friend, the friend that will stand up against the bully of north korea, and it will also stand up to china and tell them, look, we not only have military power, but we know what to do with it if we have to use it. that is not a message that is commonly heard by either north korea or china, certainly not during the eight years of the obama administration, when most of the time we were issuing apologies and we were backpedaling. this is a strategically important trip. i think the president is doing it in the order intentionally going to japan, south korea, and
what we did with paul manafort and indict you or we could work out a deal that could give credit to you and also to your son which might have even greater value to mike flynn. and now that the trump campaign chairman paul manafort has been indicted, how does that play out? reporter: you re always working on parallel tracks. it wouldn t surprise me that robert mueller and his team don t have a number of different threads of this investigation going at all times. but with michael flynn, this is an opportunity for him to plead and i think now they can hold up the manafort indictment, as we re not playi ining around, t is what happens when you don t cooperate, and it could happen to you as well. so this could be an opportunity for michael flynn to cooperate before he s indicted. he doesn t have to. but i think he can see that robert mueller doesn t bluff,
incompetent the president is more frustrated quite frankly with his own party on capitol hill than he is with democrats right now. and i think you saw paul ryan i thought it was a little bit remarkable that he said, yeah, we ve kind of had to learn to live with this. it s just kind of how it s going to be. i think he and other republicans and bob corker, i would put him in this category. there are some people on the hill that view themselves as states men and they feel like they have to keep the country on some set of rails while this is all going on. i think the president is picking up on that and he s really frustrated with them. george. well, paul ryan said it s what he does. fish got to swim, birds got to fly and mr. trump has to do this stuff. he doesn t have to. he could change but he won t change. paul rooib is one of a lot of people on capitol hill that are precluded by their very norm although from he s a nice p sweet, intelligent southeastern
the same thing. he wants to be 1,000 miles away from this. what is the advantage for him, a former intelligence officer who makes his living in private consultations with people who want information from countries like russia? getting to the truth, helping the u.s. figure out what happened? m heck, no. let me get on a plane to washington and get hammered for days by a partisan congress that wants to drag me moo a debate not only about whether the dossier was correct but democrats want to drag me in one direction, republicans on another. i m going on vacation to africa because i don t want anything to do with that hearing. i d do the same thing. he doesn t have to no. how do you zplo i m not showing up and they re not going to subpoena. on that note, david gregory. phil mudd, thank you so much. up next, we have incredible stories of survival from the las vegas massacre. le strangers coming to each other s aid and saving each
so o.j. is going to have an easier time adjusting than most parolees and people who leave prison after close to a decade. and what about o.j. simpson possibly getting a job? we know there is a civil suit where he would have to pay the goldmans for the civil suit that took place for the trial of 1995. so how would that work if he were to get a job? he s not likely to to get a j job. he doesn t have to. in nevada the fact that he is considered retired, although ordinarily there is a requirement that you seek employment, being retired is considered employment. that satisfies that condition. so o.j. doesn t have to work at least as far as the nevada parole or department of corrections is concerned. but he does he may want to make some money and that has always been a legal issue, how does he generate income without it being attached as assets by the gold man family who has a judgment against him.
