Ever since you called it petty, i have been thinking a lot about it. I am a reflective guy. But here is the thing. Either you didnt say it, in which case there are a whole bunch of Administration Officials telling the press and telling the president that you did and thats a serious problem or you did say it and, look, you are a serious guy. For you to Say Something like that suggests a real frustration with the commander in chief. So when you dont answer the question, it makes people think that you probably did say it. But either way, whatever happened, it is serious. So can you please clear it up . Jake, im not playing. These are the games of washington. These are the destructive games of this town. They are not helpful to anyone. So my position on it is im not playing. On a lighter moment, tillerson did address stomach youizations from a Top Republican senator that President Trumps tweets, the ones where he said tillerson was wasting his time talking to north korea were intended to castrate the secretary of state. You dont want to say anything about the senator calling suggesting you have before gelded before the world . I checked. Im fully intact. Want to get straight to ryan noble at the white house. Ryan, what is the president to make of this interview . Reporter well, you would think this was at the president s bidding. He sent a number of his officials out to try and explain and talk about the approach when it comes to iran, but the way secretary tillerson talked about this deal is much different than the heated rhetoric than the president has used over the past several weeks. Take a listen to what tillerson said this morning. Your counter part at the pentagon, secretary mattis, was asked if he thought staying in the agreement was in the best interest of the United States, not if he wanted to improve upon the deal or add a secondary deal as you just discussed but whether or not the u. S. Should stay in it or leave and he said staying in it was his course. It sounds like you agree with him as well. I do agree with that. And i think the president does as well. Thats why he took the decision he took. Look, lets see if we cannot address the flaws in the agreement by staying in the agreement and working with our european friends and allies within the agreement. But as i said that may come in a secondary agreement. You were in china. We were talking about the north korea problem. You were in china trying to resolve the dispute and President Trump tweeted i told our wonderful secretary of state that he is wasting his time trying to negotiate with little rocket man. Save your energy, rex. Well do what has to be done. The president has also made clear to me he wants this solved diplomatically. So he doesnt think it is a waste of time. No, sir. He has made it clear to me to continue my diplomatic efforts, which we are, and we will those diplomatic efforts will continue until the first bomb drops. So ultimately the argument that the secretary of state is making today is that this is really just a tone question, that ultimately the goals of the administration are the same, the president comes at it with a bit more of a heavy hand while the nations top diplomatic comes at it a bit softer. Ryan noble is at the white house. Thank you. I want to talk about the relationship between President Trump and his secretary of state Rex Tillerson with douglas brinkley. Tillerson is still refusing to say whether he called the president a moron. What does he hope to achieve, do you think, wby leaving that question unanswered. I thought it was a failed appearance by Rex Tillerson. For secretary of state went around it. We have to assume he called him a moron. Can you imagine George C Marshal calling president truman a moron or George Schultz calling Ronald Reagan a moron and go on tv shows and not really answer the question . It was an overall bad performance. I think tillerson would have been better served not going on the sunday shows. He just added another layer of confusion. Nothing got resolved in that regard. He keeps blaming washington for asking the question when hes the one who called his boss a moron. There is tillerson and that issue. In the meantime, a senator accused trump of trying to castrate tillerson when he claimed he was wasting him time trying to negotiate with north korea. Is that how we see it . I see we have a president that throws a lot of insults out. I dont know if castration dumped into the National Arena on i mean, these guys have to all start acting a little more professional. Everyone is going twitter mad. People are saying outrageous things. You dont get hurt if you dont kind of snap a whip of some kind. I thought tillerson responded to the kcastration comment pretty well. I think it was one of the better moments in the interview. But we have big problems, and were doing, you know, name calling games. Thats the reason were talking about it because it is so unusual to hear this among a president ial cabinet and the senior senators. Can the secretary of state do his job effectively if Foreign Countries dont think he spokes for or have the respect of the president . Almost impossible to do it well. I mean, Rex Tillersons man job is to run the state department and run it well, meaning make sure that people that work under embassies that work in the bureaucracy are going well. When you undercut your own president by calling him a moron and then try to go abroad and negotiate, meanwhile, your difference of opinion with the president. There have been secretaries of state that have differences of opinion. Rex tillerson has all these problems with his boss, then step down and tell us what they are instead of kind of muddying the waters, confusing people with what is americas foreign policy. Can you think of another time when a president has had such public feuds with members of his own cabinet . They happen. But usually a president flushes them out. You dont want your own cabinet working kind of trying to assassinate you. Meaning rhetorically. And, yet, this is whats going on here. We have seen, you know, problems. Richard nixon, for example, didnt like secretary of state William Rogers and just cut rogers out of all meetings and went oneonone with the National Security advisor trying to make the state department irrelevant. Perhaps what donald trump is really doing is trying to cut the budget of the state department and rendered them a minor player in the world stage. Thank you. Now one of the pressing International Issues facing the administration and now congress is that iran deal. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson says the president does want to stay in the deal but thats not exactly what the president said just a couple of days ago when asked what changes he wants congress to make. Listen. Were going to see what happens. Were going to see what they come back with. They may come back with something very satisfactory to me. And if they dont, ill terminate the deal. So he was pretty clear there, if congress doesnt act like the iran deal is done. I want to talk to one of the lawmakers now tasked with strengthening this deal to the president s liking. Congressman, thank you for your time. Do you think President Trump will really terminate this deal if he doesnt like what Congress Comes up with or is he just bluffing . I dont know if he is bluffing or not, but lets face it. President obama entered this deal and congress he didnt submit this as a treaty to the senate. So i think that the president would be within his power to end the deal. The deal is flawed and the iranian behavior is very suspect. The iranians by some accounts are abiding by the deal but on many other fronts the iranians are a Malignant Force in the middle east in a per shan gulf area. I do think that congress is going to have to look carefully at sanctions against the revolutionary guards in iran and those that facilitate and aid them and finance them because their behavior and their actions in syria, lebanon and elsewhere in the per shan gulf area are damaging to security in that region. This week Chuck Schumer tweeted this. Potus, failure to lead. Throws destructive bones to his base and then Tell Congress to fix it. Iran, health care, puerto rico. What is your assessment . Well, i think that, again, its very difficult to analyze all of senator schumers tweets there. But the fact is that the iranian deal was flawed from the start. T the inspections is one thats questionable. But do you feel like the president has put all of this in congresss lap, just punted it to congress . Well, i think the president could have unilaterally said the u. S. Was going to withdraw from the deal. He did not do that. But i think what he wants the congress to do, and what well see what exactly the specific messages he sends. I think hes looking for us to really take a hard look at other sanctions that we could employ against the Iranian Regime because of the actions. As i noted, theyre building rocket factories in syria. The israelis within the last six or eight weeks have actually bombed some of those sights in syria. So i think that the iranian activity is very maligned and malignant in that entire region. Okay. Not just iran but health care is the other big issues that you guys are going to have to do something about because President Trump stopped paying those subsidies to obamacare insurers. They help low income americans afford health care. This move is going to raise premiums, increase the federal deficit and cause people to lose insurance. Some republicans said this move will hurt people in their state. I know your wife is a nurse. Do you support the president s decision to end these subsidies . The fact is that the president is within his right to end the subsidies because congress has an appropriated the funds and this has been already upheld in the court. But do you agree with his decision to do that . Well, here is what i think we should do. The congress should appropriate the funds for these socalled csrs to subsidize the premiums and deductibles. At the same time we should adopt other measures that can fix the flaws in the affordable felt kay act. Im part of the Problem Solvers Group in the house. 22 democrats and 22 republicans and we have put forth a proposal that would fund these csrs, these premium supports but also make some needed reforms so that insurance could be more affordable for small businesses. All right. Let me also ask you about taxes because i know its at the top of the agenda especially with the gop. Are you going to support a tax plan that removes the local and state tax reductions . I know new york has some of the highest in the middle country. A lot of the middle class depends on those deductions to lower their tax burden. I want to see a lower tax burden for lower class americans. I also want to see the details flushed out in order to accomplish that. Finally important that we get more Economic Growth in the country. Thats why we need to do tax reform. We have to make sure it is not going to harm constituents in up state new york. Will you support a tax plan that removes the deduction for local and state tax . Ill only support a tax plan that will reduce taxes for middle class new yorkers and middle class americans and how we get to that point and what the exact numbers are, those are blanks that still need to be filled in. You know there was an analysis the governor of new york did on what we know of the tax proposal that was presented from the Trump Campaign. Just that local and state taxes, that deduction, if it were to be removed, the governors Analysis Shows that would cost 3. 3 million new york taxpayers 17. 5 billion more. And on average that means new york taxpayers would be paying an additional 5,300 in federal income tax. Well, his numbers are wrong. There is no way he could make that assumption because he doesnt know where the tax brackets are going to fall. And thats one of the critical pieces of information that you need in order to make that kind of assessment. So the governor is not hes playing a little fast and loose with the facts there, but hes right in the sense this the state and local Tax Deduction is an important thing. Its something i have supported for many years. Like i said, the bottom line here is show us how taxpayers in new york and other states are going to be affected by these proposals and only then can you know whether or not its something that i could support. All right, congressman. Thank you very much for offering your thoughts. Thank you. Coming up, a news story tonight on cnn. The Trump Campaign being subpoenaed over Sexual Assault allegations.

Which makes me one smooth operator. Ah still a little tender. vo go national. Go like a pro. A woman who says President Trump sexually assaulted her ten years ago, formerlysubpoenaed his campaign and wants to see any documents he has related to her. A former contestant on the Reality Tv Show the apprentice. She made her accusations last year before the election. She claimed trump kissed her twice and on a separate occasion on beverly hills. These allegations are from 2007 and she came forward last year during the campaign. Trump has flatly denied he was inappropriate. I want to bring in attorney gloria all bright. I guess the first question is why are you now subpoenaing the trump president ial campaign . Well, actually, anna, we subpoenaed them earlier in april, but it is just now being discovered by reporters in the court file. This is the copy of our subpoena, which is in the court file. We filed it in new york. Defamation lawsuit. Our complaint is in new york Supreme Court, which is the trial court. And we filed it and we want to discover and preserve many documents that are real vent to our lawsuit on behalf of her. So, for example, what we did was we filed its called a subpoena and we wanted the campaign to preserve and maintain and not destroy any documents from the campaign that would be relevant to our lawsuit. For example, any documents that they have pertaining to summer or to a number of the other women who allege that mr. Trump, now President Trump, touched them inappropriately. Im sure that you all remember that he called all of the women who made public statements about him and made accusations of Sexual Misconduct against him, he called them all liars and said it was a fabrication, fiction. I of course called on him to retract those after he was elected and retract his threat to sue. I gave him two months. He did not do so. We filed the Defamation Case in january and we are litigating it very, very heavily. We think that the documents in the campaign are going to be relevant to our lawsuit. Okay. So now there is a response from the white house across the board, denial, in fact. The president s attorney is now calling you out. I quote, served a farreaching subpoena on the Trump Campaign that seeks wholly irrelevant information solely to harass the president. What is your reaction to that . Well, any attacks on me, this is not new. People who oppose me often will attack me personally, which is usually a sign they dont have a good argument against the merits of my argument and so if i have to name call, i usually feel that thats a sign theyre
