Working out . I combined them, elderly man with the bicepses and my sweet little girl. Biceps and babies section of instagr instagram. Theres something wrong with you. At least im honest about it. I dont know if you know this or not, but he rents children to take out into central park. Msnbcs Mark Halperin is here. Now msnbc political contributor, rick tyler. And from washington, associate editor for the Washington Post, david ig nasnatius is with us a ka kasie hunt. They didnt have kids. They rented kids out. We would go around with people saying well do things with your candidate and the kid says dad weve never been fishing. We never spent so much time together before. Why are you hugging me . Exactly. We dont go to church. So, Mark Halperin, you know, everybody was saying, you know, maybe trump has made a turn. Theres always a tweet 15 minutes away. General kelly took a nap. So, a number this weekend, of course, though the one that has garnered the most attention before we get into the news, dont you think golf. About the golf. Do you have that . Come on. What . Thats the president of the United States who tweeted out this. Oh, come on. And, mark i dont love that. I dont love it. Im serious, general kelly took a nap. No more loops on that. Thats the president of the United States. Image of a crisis with north korea. I dont get that tweet. Mika, mika, here you have, again this is a guy who, again, should put the campaign behind him. He just cant do it. And, i dont know, i just i know its considered to be a joke. Its a bad joke. When you have the president of the United States in that position talking about knocking over a woman, his former opponent. No, its bad on so many levels, i couldnt think on one way in which anybody would be overreaching or getting over their skis saying this is just a abominable. Going through old trump interviews as well as columns you wrote. In august of 2016, after then candidate trump suggested that one way to keep a conservative Supreme Court after Hillary Clinton got elected would be to assassinate her or federal judges and joe wrote in the Washington Post, trump and his supporters have been scrambling wildly all day to explain away the inexplicable. The gop nominee was clearly suggesting that some of the Second Amendment people among his supporters could kill his democratic opponent were she to be elected. A bloody line has been crossed that cannot be ignored. At long last donald trump has left the Republican Party few options but to act decisively and get this political train wreck off the tracks before something terrible happens. So, this is what you were saying then. I know people feel otherwise. No, no, that was donny, that was right after the rnc. I dont know how much more you can warn the Republican Party. Weve been warning them since december 2015. Theyre all in the Washington Post columns. Donny, you have the Republican Party acting shocked, donald trump is talking to democrats. How could we have ever seen this coming . The fact is that there was warning after warning after warning after warning and then people yesterday, oh, i cant believe he did no. This was all clear. Dont be surprised at anything. Im sorry. Ive got to say it. When paul ryan and other republicans quietly sat back, let this guy get the nomination, then we warned paul ryan the day that he endorsed donald trump. He couldnt find the words. The day he endorsed donald trump, we said you just made a terrible mistake. You should have demanded discipline. Youre not giving him your support. They never d they cant be surprised now with what theyve got. Like jeff sessions, i feel like an idiot. Maybe theres some metamorphasis that happened. Its the mood. At the same time hes talking about rocket man, giving a glib name to this mad man running north korea. Were going to get to that. To have the cognitive disability to tweet, him hitting hillary on the head with a golf ball, you never let me diagnose, i understand, on this show, but hes not a well guy. Theres no other you do the dance. And there is the president ial t turettes of tuning out Donald Trumps tweets. They dont care. Its how i feel about tweets from anybody at this point. I dont care. Unless youre my mother. Then im wondering why youre on twitter. But the question is, what about north korea . What about germany . So bring it up. What about britain . What about our allies . What about our enemies . Have they learned to tune out this childish gibberish or is north korea still focusing on these things . We dont know how north korea reads these tweets. Thats one thing that worries people. Certainly rocket man knows that he was on the other end of this most recent tweet from the president. This week, donald trump will go to new york, go to the institution he used to attack. Look at this. And try to make it his own, giving a speech at the u. N. On tuesday, as important to him as the meeting he will have today, where he will talk about reforming the u. N. With 100 different countries. The white house will say, see, the u. N. Is listening to us. We made criticisms of how corrupt and inefficient it was. Now everybody is on board. Feeling very much excited by his new outreaches to democrats. Some of that excitement in new york this week. Behind all that, the speech hell give, the meetings, looms this evermore serious crisis with north korea. We have senior officials now saying very directly that if this last chance thats offered in the diplomacy that opens this week to try to bring china in, to pressure north korea, if that fails, that the United States intends to turn to military options, unspecified. So, its a series a crisis as weve seen, i think, in several decades in terms of the potential use of Nuclear Weapons. President secretary Rex Tillerson keeps saying they want a diplomatic solution but everybody finishes those statements saying if that doesnt work general mattis is standing by and were ready to turn to general mattis. Mark halperin, so what do you think about these tweet this is weekend . Do we start ignoring them . Do we push them to the side . Why would a president , who is again, you cant logically explain it this way but why would a president coming off his best week of press, probably, in his presidency, end the week with a series of inflammatory tweets . Theres no surprise, on one level, that this is how hes dealing with Foreign Policy. But when youve got mattis and kelly, in particular, and h. R. Mcmaster trying to drive a policy, its frustrating. This is not surprising, rick, but could it be that he has been seen as somebody who is going too far left over the past week, so, hey, im going to finish the week by doing something that i know the press will be shocked by and that my strongest base is going to be gleeful about . That is a dumb video, retweet a dumb video . Its hard to explain why he would take the time to do that. I think it amuses him. Like many politicians, hes an adrenaline junkie and is addicted to the adrenaline. Thats what that is all about. I warned about donald trump, that he didnt have any governing philosophy and would cut deals with democrats. We shouldnt be surprised by it. Its okay to do that as long as theyre undercutting to you. But in this situation hes undercutting his republican leaders. I wish there was an intelligent analysis with this behavior but there isnt. Theres no intelligent way to read this behavior at all. Hold on. Is donny going to give it a try . Donny said he was bored but mike says no. What do you think . The danger in the tweets is that they really outline they lead us to war . No. They outline and define who he is and who he has always been, an independent operator and no one, general kelly, secretary mattis, no one is going to be able to finally, firmly influence what he does. But thats a separate i think that moment he was eating his frostie os and, thats funny. In his mind hes a real estate did developer and can do that without any implications. Hnc. R. Mcmaster, trying to explain the tweet. Have you heard that from the president before or is that a new one . Its a new one for the president but it reminds me of a cover of the economist a few years ago, portraying him as the rocket man. We shouldnt laugh too much about, because they do represent a grave threat to all to everyone. Yes, they do, actually. Thank you very much. Thats an understatement, isnt it, david . National Security Council has been concerned about a possible land war, ground war in korea, north and south korea now, for several months. Rocket man is pointing his rockets at u. S. Targets and has been demonstrating an ability to use both Missile Technology and to build an evermore advanced Nuclear Weapons that has astonished u. S. Intelligence. To use a jocular term, he may want to tweet kim but nobody should be unclear about how serious this threat it. So, dafvid, let me ask you. It seems that the North Koreans have surprised us at every turn over the past 18 months. Where is a country that cant even keep its electricity on at night across the country, where are they getting this technology to move forward so quickly that suddenly many worry that they may have the ability to put a Nuclear Warhead in the middle of los angeles fairly soon. Where is it coming from . Are the chinese aiding them, russians, pakistan . Where are they getting this Nuclear Technology . Thats one of the mysteries that our intelligence agencies are looking at. North korea is a target that they, frankly, admit they have not cracked. They dont know enough about how north korea builds its weapons. It is believed that there are some foreign scientists who assist the North Koreans. The North Koreans are demonstrated proliferators. They sell them to make money. They have a network of people who they work with, part of their supply chain. Anybody who wants to dig into this mystery of north korea, last weeks issue of the new yorker, he spent a week in pyongyang, watching, listening, talking to people. Thats a great place to start. Whats the greatest danger, david, according to the intel agencies that you speak with, that north korea uses its Nuclear Technology to fire a Nuclear Weapon at seattle or portland or San Francisco or los angeles, or they sell it to isis and it ends up in the form of dirty bomb in times square or a mall in, you know charlottesville or charleston or wherever . Im just drawing on the comments i hear from former officials. And i would say its the latter. North koreans are still some months off from actually having that deliverable threat. Marrying the rocket and the bomb still appears to be some months away. And even when it comes were going to have a lot of defenses. One thing i would love to see the president do is announce a real Crash Program to have new ways of taking out these korean missiles when theyre first launched, boost phase program. Longer term danger is they have mastered this technology and theyre going to sell it. This is a desperately poor country, on its back foot. Think of all of the people who would love to have Deadly Weapons to use to attack the United States. Theyre going to be customers. And i think that is at the center of concern, not just over the next few months but for the remainder of this presidency and into the next. Great danger. Were going to keep talking about that through the show. Also, do you see, Mark Halperin, that the trump team, legal team, is headed by lionel hites . Little simpsons reference there. I cannot believe how bumbling and how stupid these guys are. They are the most indiscreet attorneys. I mean it. I ever heard in my life, sending out angry emails, shouting in popular washington steakhouses problems they have. In front of New York Times reporters. In front of New York Times reporters. A block away from the New York TimesWashington Bureau. Full block. I was clerking in pensacola, i remember walking with mr. Manual to the courthouse, and we were two blocks down. Nobody within 1,000 feet of us. And i brought up a client. I said hey, i hear that the firm represents and he turned to me very politely and was like, young man, we dont talk about our clients outside of the office. And i looked around. He goes, it doesnt matter whether anybody is around or not. Its something you just dont do. You know, i learned that as a 23yearold kid. And these clowns are sending emails in the middle of the night. These jackasses. Oh, thats the word i was going to use. The lack of discipline for these trump attorneys. Ive said it before. Are just its so astounding. Representing the president of the United States. Incredible story, which well get to, too. Okay. Can you imagine what mattlock would say to these guys if he was in their firm . Well have the full story come i coming up. Bill . One of those seasons like 04 and 05, one after another. This is maria. If you werent paying attention over the weekend, this became a hurricane, will head to the islands, and has its eye set on either Virgin Islands or puerto rico, maybe a little bit of both. The concern is that it will go through dominica and martinique as a category 3. Puerto rico hasnt been hit by a category 4 or 5 hurricane since 1948. The population has doubled since then in puerto rico. Right now is the time to prepare in puerto rico. Anyone who can get out of there, all the tourists should be on any possible plane to get out of there. Guadalupe, st. Kitts and puerto rico, dangerously close to puerto rico and the verirgin islands. The other final thing is this is irma and this is the path of maria. Look how close. The Virgin Islands could almost get hit by both of those. The devastation there has already been done and then the misery on top of it with another storm is unimaginable. Jose is still a hurricane but looks like a noreaster. Thats how its going to act, minus the ice and snow. Rain story along long island and cape cod. It does a little loop here and misses any direct impact. Long island and cape cod, still a storm watch. Any significant impact, gusty winds, minor Power Outages in long island and southern portions of massachusetts. Compared to what maria will do in puerto rico and the Virgin Islands, jose is a glancing blow and nuisance in a couple of days. Gusty winds and occasional rain over the next couple of days. I would not expect any major impacts, just a couple of delays. Youre watching morning joe. Well be right back. Can we at least analyze can we push the offer online .

Harvoni is a revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. Its been prescribed to more than a quarter million people. And is proven to cure up to 99 of patients who have had no prior treatment with 12 weeks. Certain patients can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni.

Taking amiodarone with harvoni can cause a serious slowing of your heart rate. Common side effects of harvoni include tiredness, headache and weakness. Ready to let go of hep c . Ask your hep c specialist about harvoni. All right. The president s legal team has had a series of mishaps of late. Wow first one of his attorneys erupted in a string of profanitylaced emails to a stranger. To a stranger. To someone completely what adult in the 21st century thats a public figure let me help you with this. Sends emails to trolls . I think the president probably no. Im just saying who does this . Lawyers know. Dont put it down in an email. Who does this . This is our president s attorney. Good luck in court. They learn from that. They learn. Discipline than the rest of them. They learn from his mistakes. Another of his lawyers forwarded an email to journalists and government officials that echo ed secessionist civil war rhetoric. And then another attorney asked a journalist if he was o s drugs. You know if you put it in an email its going to end up in the papers, especially if youre attacking a journalist. With the trump admin he has not had good luck acquiring competent legal makes you wonder about the people he has hired. They probably w
