This country, it's a brutal regime. turkey is committing ethnic cleansing. we could go on and on. but all the consequences for this for what was already the most turbulent dangerous part of the world. you've got the war in yemen, failed state in libya. you had the wars in syria, you still have an israeli/palestinian issue. so there's that. and this is even more important. what this does is it raises fundamental questions about american reliability. so if you're sitting in moscow, you're sitting in beijing, to me, the single most dangerous part of this is this serial reluctance to stand by frie...

Views are getting a lot more attention because of this dust-up than if they had been allowed to go and israeli officials said sit down at the table, we disagree with you. >> we heard from joseph lieberman but we've also heard fairly unanimous consensus amongst a number of the 2020 democrat presidential candidates. and to me what's been interesting is if we look at 2016, we've seen a shift on the overall israeli/palestinian issue. as the conversation has shifted to health care and economy, he's shifted the conversation on some of these issues as well. >> and nothing is clean in this town anymor...

Meeting with king abdullah. a key u.s. ally in this region. and the white house is really keen to emphasize that the purpose of this trip is not just to discuss the israeli/palestinian issue and the contentious issue of the u.s. dr. clairation that jerusalem is the capital of israel. they say there are other issues of common interest when it comes to counterterrorism, when it comes to the fight against isis, and when it comes to the issue of syria and the conflict next door. that is very important for jordan. so you'd expect that was high up on the agenda today during those discussions between...

That the president doesn't understand that the role of the attorney general is not simply to protect the president and be loyal to the president but to actually uphold and defend the constitution? >> well, the president is obviously had issues with jeff sessions. in "the new york times" interview, he said he's pretty much moved on from those. it's no secret he's made no secret of the fact that he has taken great issue with the fact that jeff sessions did not step in and protect him from this russian investigation and he recused himself. however, the bigger issue here is how important loyalty i...
