Epstein is expected to appear in federal court tomorrow. Turning to politics and the race for the democratic pridential nomination. Chuck todd is nbcs political director and moderator of meet the press. Hallie jackson is our chief white house correspondent. Morning. Me here in new york chuck, halle, good morning. On turday, guys, former Vice President joe biden on the campaign trail in south carolina. Biden said f the first time he grets comments heade about working with segregationist senators back when he was a now, was i wrong a few weeks ago . To somehow give the impression to people that i was praising those men who i successfully opposed time an again . Well, yes, ways. I regret it. And im sorry for any of the pain or misconception i may have caused anybody. So, chuck, that w notable yesterday. Joe biden not on a quickly. In fact, was def sive when asked a couple weeks ago about the charges. Thats as close as hell get to anpology. Why did he do it . He did it in south e most important constituency group, african voters, he doesnt want it losei them. Hink this is a campaign that was worried that the week sort of long debate with Kamala Harris over busing was having an impact a they wanted to try to hut it down. I feel like he made it clear he wants to change his first time for the rest of the campaign to Barack Obamas Vice President. He is going to wrap himself in the phrase Barack Obamas vice presidst. Therenother part, too, as chuck referenced, was the debate. Senator Kamala Harris came directly at joe biden on questions of race. Postdebate polling showed biden down double digits. Kamala harris up doubledigits. Everybody talks about a breakout moment. Is trying to capitalize on it. She has sharpened up her message as it relates to t donaldrump. Many democratic voters want to know whoever they nominate will take down donald trump or at o got have the best chance after thesi prent. She is on the trail calli him a predator living in the white house. That is different language than we have heard from her. I am not sure that the president himself has aood handle yet on how to go after her. You see him go after joe biden,. Equently Bernie Sanders thats an arena he feels comfortable. It remains to be seen how and where hell take it to senator harris as this goes on. She is almost the one candidato nickname for her. Not yet. Chuck, lets look at iran. There wasews this morning. President rouhani saying his company will exceed the limits ofhe enric iranian agreed to under the iran nuclear deal. What is the pessage tosident trump . I think its interesting they are being public about what they are doing. They are staying in Constant Contact with the europeans on this. Emmanuel macron, the president of france, almost serving as the gobetween, if you will, between iran and the european signors of the iran nucareal. To me it almost is an advertisement of, hey, were telling you we are going to start enriching more uranium, but hey, wed love to have a deal. I think this is the iranians saying they still want to talk. The question is on whose terms. We will see if president li trump is wil to talk. Thank you very much. Halle, we will see you in a moment and throughout the show. Chuck, we will look for more on meet the press when chuck takes on the Immigration Crisis and d sitsn with democratic president ial contender senator Amy Klobuchar of minnesota.
