MSNBCW Hardball With Chris Matthews April 5, 2017
What is mapt by this. You know, diplomacy shouldnt be a mystery game. I mean, you should give clear signals to people. Lets see what he has in mind. But i fine that a little hard to receipt right now. I am selfishly worried about the 27,000, 28,000 americans in uniform who are within artillery distance of north korea, say nothing of a nth korea that could build a missile putting los angele within distance. Same question. What do you do here . Well, you got it. I mean it is a tough issue. There are 20 million
South Koreans
within artillery range of north korea. I think there are a couple of things we need to do. One we really have to strengthen that relationship with south korea make sure the
South Koreans
know we are all in the the
North Koreans
want to go there. And i think the deployment of these antiballistic
Missile Systems
is the right thing to do. But it is equally important, and actually crucial that we have a deep dive with the chinese so there is a clear understanding of what were looking for and what were not looking for. The chinese worry not only about refugees. They worry about a lot of thing. They special worry about the notion that there could be a unified kor unified korean peninsula. We have to have a really deep dive with the chinese. And i think life is all about trying to set some priorities. And we need to make this north korean issue a priority. This is not going away on its own. It is by far the most dangerous issue that we face in the world, including from that possibility of their holding u. S. Cities hostage with icbms. As luck would have it, the chinese are coming to of all places maralago for the weekend. Lets hope for fruitful talks. I cant help but noting the time zones work to your advtage with a show that is on this late on the east at night. So we hope we have permission to call upon you and ask you a few questions again in the future ambassador. Thank you very much for joining us. Thank you. Former ambassador chris hill. Lets bring in two journalism veterans, ron 4in1ier, long
Time Associated
press bhous
White House Correspondent
and
Washington Bureau
chief. He is with us from detroit where he is editor and publisher of cranes detroit business. And charlie sykes. Charlie, proximity tonight wins. You go first. And that is the political reaction to syria today. And i want to throw up on the screen why its tough for donald trump, sean spicer, anyone speaking if their name to respond to this is his twitter history on do not attack syria, syria is not our problem. As a friend of mine always says, i dont mean to be disrespectful, sure looks different from the cheap seats. It sure does. Once again, how many times have we lived through this, the never again, after the holocaust, after rwanda, we always said never again. Here we are. This is our generations moral challenge. There were different
Foreign Policy
failures by the obama administration. Now the question is what is the
Trump Administration
going to do . A lot of rhetoric how this is unacceptable but the reality is that the world right now is accepting this. Nothing thats happening in syria is unpredictable. Nothing that is happening in syria should shock the world given the fact that the world has turned a blind eye, that we have empowered president assad, that we have given, you know, his you know, one of his puppet masters pooutd putin, you know, free reign, all of this. We do have failures, a bipartisan failure, but the real question is what are they going to do about it now . And is donald trump going to think about this in any other terms other than relitigating his grudge match with barack obama. We have been talking about this kind of unforced error that caused so much time, attention, and distraction, and granted, misdirection because of social media consuming almost half of the presidency thus far. This is where reality kicks in. I hate the term unforced err. Its as if he did something by accident. This was a purposeful miss direction to distract us from a real issue and a real controversy over ties with russia which as charlie mentions is a country that our country has handed syria over to. And hes got as you say, hes got to get out of the cheap seats and realize hes the one now who is sitting in the oval office and its not good enough to talk about the red line that barack obama drew and then walked away from. Donald trump is now the one walking a way from this crisis. Hes the one that now has blood on his hands. Hes the one who has got to step up and lead the world. This cant go on anymore. As we heard the ambassador, we do have options. None of them are easy. But thats why he was elected to make the tough decisions. We are going to fit in another break. When we come back, the difficulty of pushing through an agenda of any kind when a huge percentage of americans are tonight expressing embarrassment over this presidency. Details on that ahead. The new numbers when the 11th hour continues. Wanna get away . Now you can with southwest fares as low as 59 dollars oneway. Yes to low fares with nothing to hide. Thats transfarency. You need to eat this special. I love it start your day with crunchy wholegrain flakes. And real strawberries. Special k. Eat special. Feel special. I use whats already inside me to reach my goals. So i liked when my doctor told me that i may reach my blood sugar and a1c goals by activating whats within me with onceweekly trulicity. Trulicity is not insulin. It helps activate my body to do what its supposed to do release its own insulin. Trulicity responds when my blood sugar rises. I take it once a week, and it works 24 7. It comes in an easytouse pen. And i may even lose a little weight. Trulicity is a onceweekly injectable prescription medicine to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. Trulicity is not insulin. It should not be the first medicine to treat diabetes, or for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Do not take trulicity if you or a
Family Member
has had medullary thyroid cancer, if youve had multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you are allergic to trulicity. Stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms such as itching, rash, or trouble breathing; a lump or swelling in your neck; or severe pain in your stomach area. Serious side effects may include pancreatitis, which can be fatal. Taking trulicity with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases your risk for low blood sugar. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased appetite, and indigestion. Some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may make existing kidney problems worse. With trulicity, i click to activate whats within me. If you want help improving your a1c and blood sugar numbers with a noninsulin option, click to activate your within. Ask your doctor about onceweekly trulicity. Another night, another closed door meeting on capitol hill tonight between the white house and members of that freedom caucus, the subset of the republicans on the house side. Vice president mike pence trying to gin up support for some sort of new try at
Health Care Repeal
and replace. The last attempt, which measured 17 approval in popularity polls went down in flames. The president back then said they were moving on to tax reform. The white house has had a tough time getting its agenda going amid this russian preoccupation. And the new androling poll numbers continue for
President Trump
. Look at this set of numbers. This is from the new quinn peaiac poll. 57 of voters say trump does not care about average americans. 61 say he is not honest. 66 say he is not level headed. And worst of all, perhaps, 52 of all voters, more than half, say they are embarrassed to have donald trump as their president. Ron and charlie remain here with us. Charlie, lets just take a moment. That kind of takes you we are all patriots here, and that takes your breath away. It does. You know, and too bad nobody warned us that this might happen a year or so ago. But what i think is interesting is donald trump right now is probably missing
Hillary Clinton
because he has always had those really high negatives. During the campaign he was able to convince conservatives and republicans, mo matter how awful i might she is more lowesome. We needed the soviets during the cold war. Exactly. But what is amazing about this, is normally we have a honey moon in this country. So these numbers just across the board, whether its men, whether its white voters the voters among young people are devastating. The numbers dont incentivize the democrats to bail him out on health care and obviously republican members of
Congress Whose
numbers are also cratering do you really want to get on the trump train and push through this bill as you pointed o had 17
Approval Rating
before they started getting the benefits. Ron 4in1ier, a question i ask so many of our guest, is this sustainable . No. You cant start out with the worst start of a presidency in modern
American History
and sustain that. Hes hes swirling the drain. Unless he figures a way to regain the publics trust, to regain our faith, its going to end badly. And i dont know how he comes out of this, charlie is exactly right. We forget how he got elected. He got elected because this was a change election. He was the change candidate going against someone who was clearly the status quo president. Once he is in office he is the establishment and the public wants change. Thats cutting against him. Charlie, you are a dreamer, a dreamer from wisconsin. You said during the break i wonder if the white house will pivot to substance. I also wonder whether the debate in the
Media Coverage
will pivot to substance. For example, the story about syria and the role of russia maybe connects the dots, why do all these tweets matter, why does the russian story matter, why does the appease men of russia matter. Because this is who
Vladimir Putin
is. This is why our relationship and our unwillingness to take him on matters in a very, very graphic term. Theres been a lot of the distractions that we have had up until now. But at some point donald trump is going to have to deal with substance. On health care, will he be able to get that through . Will he be able to cut taxes. Rld is a very, very dangerous place. Do americans look like they are confident that donald trump can handle what is happening in syria or what is happening in north korea . Now it gets real. Ron when you toss around a word like appeasement, which is fair, but the second time weve heard it in 75 years of modern
American History
. Think back to the books you have read about lindbergh. Think back to the criticism of
Jack Kennedys
dad coming back from the uk. Appeasement is a very real issue. Theres a lot of ways if donald trump is not careful he is going to be on the wrong sides of history. And his supporters, although i understand why they wanted a change and why they wanted to blow up the system we have to worry about what side of the history we are going object on and there is a lot of issues that it looks like donald trump is on the wrong side. I guess its time to ask about where its really headed. We heard the president you and i heard him say, enough with health care. Right. On to tax reform. What are the chances . What are the chances we are going to get infrastructure before someone raises hey how about solar panels the whole thing dies of its own this is about tests right now, which is why they are going back to health care, the republicans have to determine whether they have a governing majority in the house. What paul ryan was talking about. Exact. Paul ryan is concerned. Unless they can do that, then trump will pivot and work with the democrats. I dont see the democrats are going to be particularly enthusiastic. But health care sets the table for tax cuts, for tax reform. If you dont get health care, if you dont get tax reform its hard for me to think the republicans are going to. Brace infrastructure. Thenu in the first year the new president will have no major accomplishments. Other than executive orders. Which is why i dont understand why he didnt go after infrastructure right away. Dare democrats to walk away from infrastructure reform. In detroit you have a better than average airport. We new yorkers really need infrastructure. Ron, if you were in your old job writing the lead off for associated press, the one used on the web and by morning papers what would your suggested headline to your editors be . Tonight . Yes . A presidency on the brink. On that, i also have a point of personal privilege. We talked this week about the blue puzzle piece for autism speaking. I cant help but note your green puzzle piece on your lapel. And because we know each other and because i read your book, take 30 seconds and tell the folks what that represents. This represents the
Autism Alliance
of michigan. Im honored to be on the board here. The big cause for this group in michigan is to connect jobs with young men and women because of the special way they are wired that they can do these jobs. And we need to find them employment. My son is mildly autistic and i wrote a book last year called love that boy that came out on paperback tonight. I appreciate you having me on. I didnt even know that coincidence. Your boo i about five feet from me iny office, ron 4in1ier, good to see you. Thank you for joining us, charlie sykes, always a pleasure. Thank you. Thank you. Well take our next break. Coming up, ivanka trump on the speaking out about her new gig and her willingness to stands up to the commander in chief, considering shes his daughter. When the 11th hour continues. Theres nothing more than my vacation. Me so when i need to book a hotel room, i want someone that makes it easy to find what i want. Booking. Com gets it. They offer free cancellation if my plans change. Visit booking. Com. Booking. Yeah. Just head shoulders . gasp i thought it was just for, like, dandruff new head shoulders. Cleans, protects and moisturizes to. Get up to 100 flakefree and unbelievably beautiful hair its not head shoulders, its the new head shoulders youre going to be hanging out in here. So if you need anything, text me. Do you play . Use the chase mobile app to send money in just a tap, to friends at more banks then ever before. You got next . Chase. Helping you master whats now and whats next. Where i disagree with my father, he knows it is. And i express myself with total candor. Where i agree, i fully lean in and support the agenda and hope that i can be an asset to him and make a positive impact. Ivanka trump talking to gayle king of cbs today, the same day she spoke to business lead he is at the white house. She talked at that event about reinventing howway train americas work force, we need more women for
Science Technology
and math she is she is is a veteran the world of business and finance prior to seeing the light and finding honest work in the world of news media. With that as a background, stephanie, your contention is it is time now for im passionate about women and girls. Ivanka is passionate about that as well. She has taken one of the potentially most powerful positions in the white house. One of the most powerful women in the world. Now she has to be accountable for what she says she is so passionate about. This morning to address gender pay gap we appreciate that she is. But what are the action steps. If you look at the president s policies thus far they diametrically opposed. Last week to pull back on protection that president obama put in place for women this the workplace, to defund planned parenthood, the u. N. Health fund. There is really a mismatch in whats actually being done from a policy perspective and today speaking to those ceos yes it sounds great, putting people back to work with
Public Private
partnerships. What does that mean. Ivanka traunk sat next to
Angela Merkel
two weeks ago. There they calked about job building. This week she says she is excited to work with mark ben offon his apprentice program. Inv orders been signed . Where is the money . This is talk. If you are going to take a seat like that, where is the action. The part of life she cant ntrol, these the daughter of a billionaire, the wife of a millionaire. Having said that, if i appointed you chief of chaf to ivanka truch, what would you lay out for chief of staff to ivanka trump, what would you lay out for her agenda . Ivanka trump wants to take on these issues. We have heard from her in the past she cares about climate change, met with al gore and leonardo decaprio. What can she do. Its encouraging that
Jared Kushner
wants to focus on innovation. Thats detectived to things like technology, research, science, the nih being defunded. Research, we are seeing less and less of that coming from the government. She is in a very difficult position. But she has now chosen to be in the fast lane. 23 we wants to be in the fast lane she has to put her seat belt on and be accountable. In terms of what can she do, actually try to move things in terms of policy. If her father does listen to her so closely wed like to see where. She said something in that interview per father knows where she agrees with him and where she doesnt. The americanr
American People
want to know. When the womens march took place, ivanka didnt comment. Didnt make a statement. Doesnt mean she has to support it, but she should acknowledge it. Justin trudeau acknowledged it saying people want to have a voice. If she is going to be a voice a voice of reason, we would love to hear it as you know, these are scary times and the policies that we are seeing put in place dont go with the message that she has put out. Stephanie rule thank you for joining us tonight. We will be watching tomorrow morning. Steph lee me rule anchoring from washington. Coming up after a break. He is only one of 100 u. S. Senators. Tonight we got a vivid reminder that sometimes john mccain says things the other 99 are unwilling to say. When we continue. Let me talk to you about retirement. A 401 k is the most sound way to go. Lets talk asset allocation. Sure. You seem knowledgeable, professional. Would you trust me as your
Financial Advisor
. I would. I would indeed. Well, lets be clear, here. Im actually a deejay. [ laughing ] no way i have no
South Koreans<\/a> within artillery range of north korea. I think there are a couple of things we need to do. One we really have to strengthen that relationship with south korea make sure the
South Koreans<\/a> know we are all in the the
North Koreans<\/a> want to go there. And i think the deployment of these antiballistic
