Hes willing to do whatever it takes, no matter how -- whether its legal or illegal, popular or unpopular, to pursue courses of action that others think are unjustified and wrong-headed. and thats why we have such a divided country. listen, i want to go back to this question that scott raised. it is true, the president has -- this president enjoys a much higher rating than the congress. but if the day comes when we decide how much power a president can exercise based on polling, how favorable pol...

When president trump, upon taking office, pulled the u.s. out of the transpacific partnership or tpp, many of these issues that are being debated both with mexico and with canada today, were being resolved in the tpp, and the u.s. pulled out. mexico and canada are both signatory. furthermore, the tpp would have further isolated china in its own region and given the united states a much larger foothold in asia than it currently has, so i think the overall strategy here has been wrong-headed, and ...

Speak, another piece to the puzzle, as we were making our way through this investigation. it would not bode well for that subject. >> so, charlie, thats bracing to hear if it had been anyone else in government, it may have triggered a fisa-style surveillance of your life. the george will headline that we mentioned at the top of the broadcast was bracing. in your view, charlie, what should your fellow conservatives be doing and saying? who do we see about all of this? >> well, part of the problem...

>> so, charlie, thats bracing to hear if it had been anyone else in government, it may have triggered a fisa-style surveillance of your life. the george will headline that we mentioned at the top of the broadcast was bracing. in your view, charlie, what should your fellow conservatives be doing and saying? who do we see about all of this? >> well, part of the problem, of course, is that this is so unprecedented. you cant really put this in historic context. i wrote a piece yesterday where i said...

Russian leader vladimir putin. >> joining us now is msnbc news white house correspondent kristen welker. lets skip to the nato summit. the president is critical of nato. his tweet this morning, again, misleading. theres a goal by 2024 that nato countries should spend 2 % of their defense of their gdp on defense spending. the president still messaging to his defense this is a nato bank that countries are supposed to put money into. its wrong-headed. >> its wrong-headed but it works for his base. ...

Those who crossed the border were criminally prosecuted which resulted in the separation of children and parent, it captured the stakes of the moment. but not accurately. >> i think the reporting is accurate. i think its the picture on the cover thats inaccurate. they apologized for and issued a correction saying that the description or the cut line under the photo indicated that the child had been separated from the mother and thats not true. the truth is they were able to stay together and i t...

So the idea that we want to expose these sort of operations to public scrutiny is really off kilter from the start. the idea that these representatives of the president had any business being in this meeting, even just at the start, is really wrong-headed. the idea they should have stayed through the entire meeting is clearly wrong. the president is not entitled to know what evidence is being collected in a specific now criminal investigation. >> one more thing i want to ask before i let you go ...

Jenner baiting for -- gender baiting for political purposes. the president could have spoke ben police misconduct. he could have spoken about the constitutionally wrong-headed, morally wrong-hearted policy of the department of justice with respect to dissent decrees. he could have talked about issues substantively. he took this as an occasion to again engage in race baiting. he didnt take on the issue, he didnt take on what colin kaepernick and so many americans across this country are protestin...

All on barack obama. but i think there are deep anxieties about the presidents ability to handle international crises like this because he tweets out basically threats at other countries. right now hes basically more critical of south korea in his tweets today than of china, which is -- strikes people, given that south korea is likely to face the most fire and fury in this situation, wrong-headed. >> i agree with your point about his personality is stronger than policy. his policy may be stay aw...
