>>> PROTESTERS TAKING ON PRESIDENT TRUMP IN LONDON TODAY.
THAT WAS JUST A MILE AWAY FROM TRUMP’S PRESS CONFERENCE WITHTER
TERESA MAY.
TERESA MAY. AND THIS IS A 20-FOOT DIAPER
CLAD INFLATABLE DONALD TRUMP
BABY CLUTCHING HIS CELL PHONE.
A "GAME OF THRONES" REFERENCE.
WE’D RATHER HAVE A VISIT FROM
THE KNIGHT KING.
AND THEN TRUMP FOR PRISON AND
THE QUEEN LOATHES YOU.
FACT CHECK, NOT PUBLICLY TRUE
BASED ON THE CORDIAL GREETING.
TRUMP DID WHAT HE DOES.
NOT RISE ABOVE IT.
NOT ENGAGE IN DIPLOMACY.
NO, HE BROKE GROUND BY GOING TO
THIS COUNTRY AND ATTACKING THE
MAYOR OF LONDON FOR A POOR JOB.
THEN TALKED UP HIS TIME WITH
MEXICO AND THEN CLAIMED THE
PROTESTS YOU SEE WITH HIS OWN
EYES IN THE COUNTRY WHERE HE IS
A VISITOR, HE SAYS IT’S NOT EVEN
REAL.
REAL. >> EVEN COMING OVER TODAY, THERE
WERE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
CHEERING.
CHEERING. AND THEN I HEARD THERE WERE
PROTESTERS.
PROTESTERS. I SAID WHERE ARE THE PROTESTS?
I DON’T SEE ANY.
I DID SEE A PROTEST, VERY SMALL.
SO A LOT OF IT IS FAKE NEWS, I
HATE TO SAY.
I DIDN’T SEE THE PROTESTERS
UNTIL A LITTLE WHILE AGO.
AND IT WAS A VERY, VERY SMALL
GROUP OF PEOPLE PUT IN FOR
POLITICAL REASONS.
POLITICAL REASONS. SO IT WAS FAKE NEWS.
>> I’M JOINED BY THE WHITE HOUSE
COLUMNIST FOR THE HILL.
NILE, WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?
>> WHAT IT MEANS FOR A START IS
THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP CONTINUES
TO BELIEVE THAT THE STATEMENT OF
FACTS IS IN SOME WAY A SMEAR
AGAINST HIM.
AGAINST HIM. I MEAN, THERE WERE PROTESTERS.
THERE IT’S NOT FAKE NEWS.
IT IS THE EVIDENCE OF OUR OWN
EYES.
EYES. AND THE OTHER THING I WOULD SAY
IS THAT THIS VISIT REMINDS ME
HOW EXPECTATIONS FOR THE
PRESIDENT HAVE BEEN LOWERED
INTERNATIONALLY AS WELL AS
DOMESTICALLY.
DOMESTICALLY. THE MERE FACT THAT HE DIDN’T, AS
HE HAS DONE IN THE PAST, RETWEET
QUAS FASCISTS OR DECLARE THAT
AREAS OF LONDON ARE NO GO AREAS
IS SEEN AS SOME KIND OF VICTORY.
HE DIDN’T CREATE A MAJOR
INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT IS CALLED
FOR TO US YELL HOORAY.
>> TAKE A LOOK AT HOW THIS WAS
COVERED ON FOX NEWS.
>> AND HERE COMES E-IVANKAA AND
JOHN BOLTEN AND SOME SECURITY
AND IVANKA TRUMP, WALKING ACROSS
TOGETHER.
TOGETHER. .
. IT’S NOT FOR IVANKA.
IT’S FOR JOHN BOLTEN AND HE
LOVES IT.
LOVES IT. >> ARE THERE EYEGLASSES SO YOU
KNOW WHO THE BOOS ARE FOR WHEN
YOU’RE COVERING A LIVE EVENT?
>> IT IS A SPECIAL BRITISH FORM
OF GENIUS.
OF GENIUS. THAT YOU CAN MIND READ THE
BOO-ERS.
BOO-ERS. THIS IS ABSURD TO TRY TO PROTECT
THE PRESIDENT BY EVERYBODY
GAUGING IN PROPAGANDA ABROAD AS
WELL AS AT HOME.
>> THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION AND
THE TRUMP FAMILY AND DONALD
TRUMP HAVE A CREATIVE AND CASUAL
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE TRUTH AND
WITH FACT.
WITH FACT. AND THAT’S ON FULL DISPLAY HERE.
SO THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE
REALITY HAPPENING WITHIN THIS
WORLD.
WORLD. WITH THAT THAT, THE BRITS
ABSOLUTELY KNOW HOW TO TROLL THE
PRESIDENT.
PRESIDENT. THEY KNOW HOW TO GET UNDER HIS
SKIN AND THEY DID IT WITH STYLE,
WITH SPECTACLE.
WITH SPECTACLE. THEY TOOK DAY OFF FROM WORK.
THEY SPENT THE DAY OFF.
WE SAW THE ROYAL FAMILY TROLL IN
THEIR OWN LITTLE WAY.
THE OTHER THING TO REMEMBER IS
THAT PROTESTS MATTERS.
WE SAW PROTESTS IN 2003 AFTER
THE ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE
INVASION OF IRAQ.
GLOBAL PROTESTS.
GLOBAL PROTESTS. WE SAW PROTESTS DURING DONALD
TRUMP’S INAUGURATION ALL OVER
THE WORLD.
THE WORLD. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE.
AND WE’RE SEEING ON A NATIONAL
STAGE.
STAGE. A GLOBAL STAGE.
THAT WE REALLY ARE ISOLATING
OURSELVES.
OURSELVES. THE UNITED STATES IS ISOLATING
OURSELVES AND THAT DWLOEBL
POWERS, PEOPLE WE’VE CONSIDERED
ALLIES, PEOPLE WE’VE BEEN IN
COALITION WITH, ARE REJECTING
THE NATION AND THAT DOES MATTER.
>> AND I WONDER WHAT YOU THINK
AS A PROFESSOR.
DONALD TRUMP IS NOT THE FIRST
PRESIDENT TO DELIGHT IN CERTAIN
FOREIGN CLASHES.
FOREIGN CLASHES. AS AN ATTITUDE AND PLAYING IT
BACK HOME.
BACK HOME. OF COURSE THEY DISLIKE ME THERE.
I FIGHT FOR US.
SO THERE’S NOTHING UNIQUE ABOUT
THAT NATIONALISM.
THAT NATIONALISM. WHEN YOU SEE THE BRITISH LEADER
CORBIN GOING OUT, BREAKING
TRADITION TODAY TO MARCH WITH
THE PROTESTERS OF A VISITING
U.S. PRESIDENT.
U.S. PRESIDENT. YOU DO START TO WOULD UNDERSTAND
THAT TERM WE USED TO HEAR ABOUT,
SOFT POWER.
SOFT POWER. WE JUST DON’T HAVE THE ALLIES IN
OUR CORNER OR DO YOU THINK IT’S
OVERSTATED?
OVERSTATED? >> SO WE’VE HEARD THIS AT THE
BEGINNING OF TRUMP’S PRESIDENCY.
A NUMBER OF FOREIGN POWERS,
PEOPLE WE HAD CONSIDERED ALLIES,
HAD BEEN ENGAGED IN GOOD
DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH, HAD
SAID WE CAN’T COUNT ON THE
UNITED STATES ANYMORE.
WE HAVE TO GO IT ON OUR OWN.
WE HAVE TO LOOK TO OTHER POWERS,
TO OTHER LINGSS.
AND WE KNOW THAT DONALD TRUMP
AND THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION
SEEM TO FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE
WITH AUTHORITARIAN GOVERNMENTS,
WITH DICTATORSHIPS, WITH
QUESTIONABLE, PROBLEMATIC
QUESTIONABLE, PROBLEMATIC GOVERNMENTS THAT HAVE REALLY
ALARMING RELATIONSHIPS TO HUMAN
RIGHTS, TO ETHICS AND THAT KIND
OF THING.
OF THING. SO WHAT WE’RE SEEING, A
RE-ALIGNMENT.
RE-ALIGNMENT. AND LIKE UP, WE’VE SEEN
PRESIDENTS BEFORE WHO HAVE HAD
TENSE NEGOTIATIONS WITH OTHER
PRESIDENTS.
PRESIDENTS. I DON’T KNOW THAT WE’VE SEEN
SOMETHING OF THIS MAGNITUDE.
IN THE CURRENT MOMENT.
AND THAT SHOULD BE CAUSE FOR
ALARM.
ALARM. >> I’M ALMOST OUT OF TIME HERE.
I DID WANT TO HEAR YOUR ACCENT
ONE MORE TIME.
>> ALL I CAN SAY WITH DONALD
TRUMP IS THERE AIN’T NO HEART IN
THE LOVE OF THE CITY.
>> WOW!
>> WOW! AGE NO LOVE IN THE HEART OF THE
CITY.
CITY. AGE NO LOVE IN THE HEART OF UP
TO.
TO. A JAY-Z REMIX.
WHO WAS THE ORANGE?
I’M NOT SURE.
>> THE NAME IS ESCAPING ME NOW.
IT WAS A SOUL SINGER OF THE
’70s.
’70s. >> CAN I PHONE A FRIEND?
>> IT’S NOT COMING BACK TO ME.
CONTROL ROOM IS TELLING ME, NOT
ONLY CAN I NOT CALL A FRIEND BUT
I’M OUT OF TIME DOCUMENT WE HAVE
IT?
IT? NO.
NO. WE DON’T HAVE IT.
THE NEWS IS FAST BUT NOT THAT
FAST.
FAST. IF YOU ARE WATCHING THIS AND YOU
