New book is about the trump family. welcome to you all. emily, because youre most steamed on a day-to-day basis, im going to begin with you. why did this come out tonight, what else do you know about this and other recordings? >> whats interesting about the timing tonight is on friday night we knew about what was on the recording according to rudy guiliani. my sources in cohen world were already telling me at that point that this was not the true narrative, in their mind, and i think over the we...

Feeling like for the first time in a very long time they were able to control a narrative that was at least better than the narrative that unfolded on friday afternoon. >> and they felt like it was more rooted in the facts. the facts are that donald trump was right there by his side doing anything that he did on behalf of donald trump? >> yeah. on friday the way rudy giuliani painted the narrative was this was completely exculpatory for the president and michael cohen and those around him over t...

Anxious about it. so i just think this kind of has snowballed and gets bigger and bigger. if you remember we go back to the papadopoulos episode, nobody had ever heard of his name either and that was one of the cleanest-cut examples of criminally at th criminality that has come so far. when you hear the five names, theres a lot we dont know and that has got to keep the president and the white house on their toes. >> im reminded, john, of the description someone gave of the mueller probe its no...

This. the president left nato saying he had achieved this grand victory. everyone snapped into gear because he made these threats and now nato is stronger he proclaimed as he goes to the next stop. he has said again and again he believes sdraunger ties with russia are important. if they work together will create a safer world. this is the way he talks about it it it and the way hes can described it it and the way people around him say he really felt things had gone well. that hed accomplished in...

A jamboree? >> gabe, explain how that was dealt with by president obama, how that impacted him? >> well, he decided ultimately not to speak up about this. but this was one of the many things that troubled him because of the message that was sent to young rising leaders. he basically made a case to his friends, some of the work has to be to inspire and build up the generation of the leadership, that age group are basically sponges, and whatever message they get, theyre going to absorb. in that pa...

Stewing over the fact that president trump was poisoning the minds of the next leaders and he spoke up making theal calculation, had he done that he would have turned it into yet another partisan conversation. thats not the way you want these things to go i cant help but hear and i read and thoroughly enjoy the piece between president clinton and obama. it sounds like president obama recognizes if he were to enter the fry he probably plays well to trump and trumps base, president trump loves to ...

Promise. >> yes. i am not sure i would credit the president with having a elaborate compass auto view of the constitution. he once talked about a judge signing a bill when he meant opinion but hes been counseled by people who do have a doctrin doctrine. he is going to produce somebody from a list of people who are thoroughly vetted by the conservative movement. for many, many years, conservatives have been stewing over the appointment of david souter by president george president george w. bush ...
