A sunday sitdown with Michelle Pfeiffer. Plus, tom brokaw live in our studio with a story from the greatest generation this veterans day week. Lets begin with President Trump walking back comments where he first appeared to take the word of russian president Vladimir Putin on election meddling over the United States agencies. Peter alexander has been traveling with the president across asia. Peter, good morning. Reporter hey, willie. Good morning to you from here in hanoi. President trump after showing restraint from much of the trip today trying to get a few things off of his chest beginning with a tweet storm about Vladimir Putin and kim jongun. President trump touching down in manila, the final stop of his whirlwind asia tour. Hundreds of demonstrators gathering at the u. S. Embassy to protest his visit. Police firing Water Cannons to disperse the clouds. Hes meeting with the filipino president duterte. I believe in our intel agencies as currently led by fine people. I believe very much in our intelligence agencies. Reporter but its mr. Trumps relationship with russian president Vladimir Putin still trailing him after a warm welcome clearing up confusion whether he denies russian interference that with a swipe at the cia, fbi and National Intelligence who only hours ago the president ridiculed as political hacks. Mike pom pay yes has blamed russia. This was aggressive action taken by the senior leadership. Reporter trumps initial defense of putins denial, he said he believes putin means it when he says he didnt medal drawing fire from republican senator john mccain. Theres nothing America First about taking the word of a kgb kornl over u. S. Intelligence. Mr. Trump today . I believe president putin really feels, and he feels strongly, that he didnt medal in our election. What he believes he believes. What i believe is we have to get to work. Reporter earlier tweeting when will all the haters and fools out there realize that having a Good Relationship with russia is a good thing, not a bad thing and taking a jab at north koreas erratic dictator writing why would king jom un insult me by calling me old, when i would never call him short and fat oh, well, i try hard to be his friend and maybe that will happen. I think anything is a possibility. Strange things happen in life. That might be a strange thing to happen, but its certainly a possibility. Reporter and speaking to reporters after that news conference, the president s chief of staff, john kelly, telling us he doesnt follow the president s tweets and adding that he doesnt allow his staff to either. Willie . Peter alexander in vietnam with the president in the philippines. Well let you go catch up. Peter, thanks so much. Back here at Home National republicans continue to assess the fallout over Embattled Alabama Senate candidate roy moore and the multiple allegations of Sexual Misconduct against him. On saturday moore held his first public event since the accusations came to light and he insists he is not dropping out of the race. Nbcs Gabe Gutierrez has the latest from alabama. Reporter this morning roy moore is doubling down amid a growing firestorm. Do you believe its appropriate for a 32yearold man to kiss a teenager, sir . Reporter he didnt answer questions as he arrived at a veterans day event, but inside he blasted the washington post. This article is a prime example of fake news. Reporter the post article alleges he fondled the 14yearold girl in 1979 and pursued three other girls ages 16 to 18 when he was in his 30s. To think that grown women would wait 40 years to come before, right before an election to bring charges is absolutely unbelievable. Reporter moore says the allegations of his main accuser are completely false and hes never engaged in Sexual Misconduct, though he did not rule out dating other older teenagers at the time. Moores critics want him to drop out now. He should not be a candidate. He should not be in Public Office of any sort. Reporter under alabama law its too late to remove moore from the ballot and the Governors Office says there are no plans to delay the election set for next month. There is interest in a writein candidate. Senator Lisa Murkowski has admitted that shes been in conversation with senator Luther Strange who lost the republican primary to roy moore. Reporter but moore is now using the post report to raise money and his base is sticking by him. There is no proof. The timing is so suspicious. Reporter a growing scandal in a race that could help determine the success or failure of the president s legislative agenda. Gabe gutierrez, nbc news, birmingham, alabama. Chuck todd is nbcs political director and moderator of meet the press. Hes beaming this morning for reasons having nothing to do with politics. 41 to 8. Miami put the whooping on notre dame. They sure did. That looked Like Old School miami especially on the defensive front. Who knew i didnt expect that. No way. I thought they could beat notre dame but, you know, guess what . You get a little taste and now you want more. So now suddenly acc championship, who cares. Give me the playoffs. Give me the playoffs. Its funny how quickly you get greedy, isnt it, chuck . Yes, it is. Lets talk about what we were dealing with with Gabe Gutierrez. He seems to be taking a page out of Donald Trumps playbook. Put your head down, plow through it. His supporters rallying to his side against what he says is an attack from the liberal media and from the establishment in washington. Does he survive this in alabama, first of all, chuck . And if he is elected, what does it do to the senate . Reporter look, its unclear whether he survives this. I know a lot of there certainly is a path. Hes had an extraordinarily loyal following. Hes been controversial his whole political career and those controversies havent stopped him before. This is on another level though. And were also i think we cant ignore the larger cultural moment that is taking place having to do with how men treat women how men in power treat women. So im not im skeptical that moore can survive this, quote, even in alabama and even the following that he has. I dont buy this idea that this cultural moment is somehow going to skip alabama, but well see. Roy moore himself set his own line, the most damning accusation, the idea that he may have molested a 14yearold. He claims hes never even met her. That seems to be a fact that can be proven or disproven rather easily. That, i think, is it something that hangs out there for him. But the Bigger Picture here, willie, is the impact it has on legislation. Right. Look, Mitch Mcconnell doesnt want roy moore in the senate. He hasnt wanted him there from the very beginning. Hes made the calculation that roy moore is so toxic that it actually would be better for the Republican Party if he didnt win. That shows you how nervous they are. They think roy moore will be hung around the neck of every republican candidate running in 2018. Theyd rather lose this seat, have it tougher to get tax reform through but they have other ways, you know, sort of fight and live another day. There are other democratic seats they can target where they can still hold the senate. They may end up getting a democrat in the senate. Lets see what happens when they hold that election. Want to go back to the president s trip, chuck, and his comments about Vladimir Putin and election meddling. This is from the president of the United States talking about Vladimir Putin. Quote, every time he sees me, putin, he says, i didnt do that, and i believe, i really believe that when he tells me that he means it, but he says, i didnt do that. I think hes very insulted by it if you want to know the truth. Dont forget, all he said is he never did that. He didnt do that. I think hes very insulted by it which is not a good thing for our country. The president had to come out later after he was basically rebuked by the cia putting out a statement saying, no, we believe our own conclusions and those of the intelligence agencies saying that russia did meddle. The president said, i was just saying what he said. Does this repeated deference have any impact on the outcome of bob muellers investigation . Reporter it only raises suspicion. It makes him defensive. Theres a reason why the white house wanted to be pro active in saying oh, theyre not going to have a formal meeting. They didnt want the, quote, optics of a trump Putin Meeting two weeks removed from the first inindictmen indictments from the investigation of bob mueller. This isnt the first time hes talked about skepticism about the conclusion. This is going to cause him more heartburn on capitol hill because so many key republicans there believe the president has a blind spot. Theyve got a lot to handle, republicans in the senate right now. Chuck todd, thank you very much. Say it one more time, 418. Reporter okay. Well look for more on meet the press when hes joined by pat tomb omey.

Dylan and i are ready to whip through the highs and the lo lows. The first high goes to virginia. Did you hear about the mayors race in tinton falls, new jersey. 93yearold world war ii veteran veto perillo was elected. He defeated the wellknown incumbent mayor who also had been the town police chief. Veto was annoyed by some of the burdens placed on the people.

Our first low, comes to one of the many hazards of hitting your golf ball into a sand trap. Getting yourself out of the trap. President trump played with shinzo abe. Tv tokyo captured the play. The red circles are by the tv area. President trump begins his walk up the fairway. What the president cannot see behind him is that the ball got out of the bunker a little more easily than did the prime minister. President trump heads up to find his ball, he does not notice that his host is rolling around in the sand trap there. Prime minister abe was just fine. President trump was asked aboard air force one about that tumble. The president said he didnt see abe fall but later, im very impressed, because youre better than any gymnast ive ever seen. Given him points. Ive slipped getting out of the sand trap. Ive never done the full on back role. I dont think so. One side can be very steep. You need to go around. Look how many times weve been in there. Ive been in them a lot of times. I live in the sand. Proud of that.
