HIS PARTY, AND YOU HAVE SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS THE WAY YOU JUST
HEARD, YOU HAVE A COUNTRY THAT
IS ON THE EDGE OF SOMETHING
EXTREMELY SERIOUS. AND IS SLOWLY SLIPPING AWAY FROM
ITS CORE.
ITS CORE.
AND ELISE, IN HIS FOX INTERVIEW, PRESIDENT TRUMP ALSO DISCUSSEDW,
PRESIDENT TRUMP ALSO DISCUSSED HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH VLADIMIR
PUTIN.
PUTIN.
TAKE A LOOK.
>> IM NOT FOR RUSSIA, IM FOR
THE UNITED STATES.
BUT AS AN EXAMPLE, IF VLADIMIR
PUTIN WERE SITTING NEXT TO ME AT A TABLE INSTEAD OF ONE OF THE AT
A TABLE INSTEAD OF ONE OF THE OTHERS AND WE WERE HAVING DINNER
THE OTHER NIGHT IN CANADA, I
COULD SAY WOULD YOU DO ME A
FAVOR?
FAVOR?
WOULD YOU GET OUT OF SYRIA? WOULD YOU DO ME A FAVOR?IA?
WOULD YOU DO ME A FAVOR? WOULD YOU GET OUT OF UKRAINE.
GET OUT OF UKRAINE.
YOU SHOULDNT BE THERE NOW JUST
COME ON.
COME ON. I THINK ID PROBABLY HAVE A GOOD
RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM OR I WOULD
BE ABLE TO TALK TO HIM BETTER
THAN IF YOU CALL SOMEBODY ON THE
TELEPHONE AND TALK.
I WILL TELL YOU AS AN EXAMPLE,
IF HE WERE AT THAT MEETING I COULD ASK HIM TO DO THINGS THAT
ARE GOOD FOR THE WORLD THAT ARE
GOOD FOR THE COUNTRY THAT ARE
GOOD FOR HIM.
A REPORTER ASKED ME, DO YOU
THINK YOU WOULD BE BETTER OFF
WITH RUSSIA.
WITH RUSSIA.
I SAID ABSOLUTELY. WE SPEND PROBABLY 25% OF OUR
TIME TALKING ABOUT RUSSIA.
I SAID TO MYSELF.
WOULDNT IT BE BETTER IF WE WERE
HERE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE AGREE WITH ME. A LOT OF PEOPLE AGREE
WITH ME.
>> DO YOU THINK HES GOING TO -- >> HE DIDNT -- IM NOT STICKING-
>> HE DIDNT -- IM NOT STICKING UP FOR ANYBODY.
IM JUST SAYING THIS, HE DIDNT
RESPECT OUR LEADERSHIP
PREVIOUSLY.
PREVIOUSLY.
HE WALKED ALL OVER THEM. LOOK WHAT HE DID TO CRIMEA.
HE TOOK CRIMEA.
HE TOOK UKRAINE.
SECTIONS OF UKRAINE.
>> WHICH IS WHY HE GOT KICKED
OUT OF THE G-8.
>> HE DIDNT RESPECT OUR
LEADERSHIP.
LEADERSHIP.
>> ITS HARD TO PUT INTO WORDS WHAT I JUST SAW.UT INTO WORDS
WHAT I JUST SAW. AND ELISE, FOR ME AS THE
DAUGHTER OF A FORMER NATIONAL
SECURITY ADVISER WHO IS PROBABLY
ONE OF THE GREATEST MINDS ON
GEOPOLITICAL RELATIONS AROUND
THE WORLD AND STRATEGY, I WILL
TELL YOU THAT SICKENS ME TO HEAR
HIM SPEAK THAT WAY.
TO BE SO FLIP.
TO BE SO POMPOUS, TO BE SO
ARROGANT, TO BE SO STUPID ABOUT
HISTORY.
HISTORY.
SO SHORT-SIGHTED AND ALSO SO UNBELIEVABLY CONFIDENT IN SO
UNBELIEVABLY CONFIDENT IN NOTHING.
NOTHING.
HE HAS NO CLUE WHAT HES DOING. AND OUR PRAYERS WILL REST ON THE
PEOPLE AROUND HIM, BUT I THINK
WE BETTER GET WITH THE PROGRAM.
NO ONE CAN DO ANYTHING UNDER
HIM.
HIM.
THAT IS EFFECT I HAVE BEENIVE.
IM CONCERNED FOR MIKE POMPEO AND IM CONCERNED FOR GENERAL
MATTIS AND IM CONCERNED FOR THE
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS WHO HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO RIGHT THIS SHIP
AND ARE NOT TAKING IT I FEEL
LIKE WERE ON THE EDGE OF A HUGE
CRISIS.
CRISIS.
>> THAT EXCHANGE WAS JUST SO
UTTERLY IGNORANT. IN THE CONTENT OF HIM, OF DONALD
TRUMP BELIEVING THAT HE COULD
JUST SIT DOWN WITH VLADIMIR
PUTIN AND SAY, GET OUT OF SYRIA
AND HE WOULD DO IT.
GET OUT OF CRIMEA, AND HE WOULD
DO IT.
DO IT. LIKE WHY NOT BRING ME A UNICORN
WHILE YOURE AT IT?
THATS NOT HOW VLADIMIR PUTIN
OPERATES, THATS NOT HOW HES
EVER OPERATED AND IF ANYTHING,
VLADIMIR PUTIN FEELS INCREDIBLY
EMPOWERED, BECAUSE HE INTERFERED
IN OUR ELECTION AND DONALD
TRUMPS OWN EGO IS KEEPING HIM
FROM FULLY ADMITTING IT.
AND FULLY LOOKING INTO IT AND
MAKING SURE THAT IT WILL NEVER
HAPPEN AGAIN.
HAPPEN AGAIN. SO THAT IS SUCH A FUNDAMENTAL
MISUNDERSTANDING BY DONALD TRUMP
OF VLADIMIR PUTIN AND HIS
MOTIVATIONS, THAT, YES, ITS
TRULY PETRIFYING.
TRULY PETRIFYING. >> ITS PETRIFYING, IT TRULY IS.
>> YOU KNOW WILLIE, YEAH, I
THINK WHAT WE JUST SAW THERE IN
THE INTERVIEW IS DONALD TRUMPS
VERSION OF GEORGE W. BUSHS "I
HAVE LOOKED INTO HIS SOUL AND
IVE SEEN HES A GOOD GUY.
I CAN DEAL WITH HIM."
DONALD TRUMP SUGGESTING HE CAN
DEAL WITH HIM.
ITS SO INTERESTING WHAT HE SAID
ON THE PLANE, I REFLECTED BACK
TO GOSH, IT WAS SUCH A LONG TIME
AGO THIS PAST WEEKEND.
WHEN DONALD TRUMP SAID THAT
ACTUALLY, THAT THE CRIMEA
INVASION MADE A LOT OF SENSE.
BECAUSE THE PEOPLE OF CRIMEA
WANTED THE RUSSIANS TO BE THERE.
WHICH REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING
THAT I SAW LAST NIGHT ON
TWITTER.
TWITTER.
SOMEONE HAD QUOTED A PAGE FROM DAVID HALVERSHAMS GREAT BOOK,M
DAVID HALVERSHAMS GREAT BOOK, "THE 50s."
"THE 50s." WHO QUOTED McCARTHY, WHO SAID
THERE WAS NO PLAN.
HE WAS SHOOTING FROM THE HIP.
McCARTHY WAS A DAY TRADER LIKE
ROY COHEN WAS A DAY TRADER.
THE MOST REVEALING PART WAS THIS
WAS DURING 2016.
THEY CONTRASTED BOBBY KENNEDY,
WORKING IN THE SENATE AS A
LAWYER, VERSUS ROY COHN.
ROY COHN NEVER DID RESEARCH.
THE FILES WERE LEFT UNOPENED.
NEVER READ ANYTHING.
HE JUST WENT OUT, WAS A DAY
TRADER AND MADE ALLEGATIONS.
AND AS HALBERSHAM SAID IN THE
50s, THERE WAS NO PLAN THIS GUY
IS A DAY TRADER.
ONE DAY THE THE NEXT DAY I CAN
GET THEM OUT OF CRIMEA.
TOMORROW IT WILL BE SOMETHING
ELSE.
ELSE.
WHICH OF COURSE THIS VERY NATURE OF DONALD TRUMP, THIS RECKLESSRE
OF DONALD TRUMP, THIS RECKLESS UNDISCIPLINED NATURE OF DONALD
TRUMP, IS WHATS SO DANGEROUS ON
THE FOREIGN POLICY STAGE.
>> YEAH, THINK IF YOURE GOING
TO HAVE THE BUMPER STICKER QUOTE
ABOUT DONALD TRUMP, IT ALSO CAME
LAST WEEK WHEN HE SAID I DONT
HAVE TO PREPARE, ITS ABOUT
ATTITUDE.
ATTITUDE.
WHEN TALKING ABOUT THE NORTH
KOREA SUMMIT.
THAT AS YOU SAY IS SORT OF THE ROY COHN VIEW OF THE WORLD,THE
ROY COHN VIEW OF THE WORLD, WHICH IS THE POWER OF
PERSONALITY WILL WIN OUT.
HE DOESNT BELIEVE IN
PREPARATION, HE DOESNT BELIEVE
IN HISTORY, HE DOESNT BELIEVE
IN CONTEXT.
IN CONTEXT.
HE BELIEVES HIS SINGULAR PERSONALITY CAN GET THINGS DONE.
THAT IF HE GETS IN THE ROOM WITH
SOMEBODY LIKE ON "THE
APPRENTICE" OR DOING HES
BUILDING A DEAL IN NEW YORK
CITY, HE CAN CONVINCE THEM TO
COME TO HIS SIDE.
JOE AS YOU KNOW, ITS WORKING.
WERE GOING TO HAVE MARK SANFORD
ON THE SHOW IN JUST A FEW
MINUTES.
MINUTES.
HAD YOU THE CHAIRWOMAN OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TWEETING THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY TWEETING YESTERDAY, THIS.
YESTERDAY, THIS. ANYONE THAT DOES NOT EMBRACE THE
DONALD TRUMP AGENDA OF MAKE
AMERICA GREAT AGAIN WILL BE
MAKING A MISTAKE.
THATS WHERE THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY IS ITS A POWER OF
PERSONALITY.
PERSONALITY.
ITS NOT ABOUT IDEAS, ITS NOT ABOUT EVEN CONSERVATIVE POLICY
ANY MORE.
ANY MORE. ASK MARK SANFORD OF THE FREEDOM
CAUCUS, WITH A 100% ACU RATING,
ITS ABOUT YOUR LOYALTY TO
DONALD TRUMP AND DONALD TRUMP
KNOWS THAT.
KNOWS THAT.
THATS WHY HE KNOWS HE CAN GO ON CAMERA AND SAY THE THINGS HE ON
CAMERA AND SAY THE THINGS HE SAYS WITHOUT PENALTY.
>> BEFORE WE GO TO BREAK, MIKE
BARN KILL WANTS TO SHARE A
PICTURE.
PICTURE.
>> JOE, I DONT KNOW WHETHER
YOUVE SEEN THE FRONT OF THE
"TIMES" THIS MORNING.
A CLOSE-UP OF THIS. THIS IS A 2-YEAR-OLD HONDURAN
GIRL.
GIRL.
AT THE BORDER, OF THE UNITED
STATES/MEXICAN BORDER.
CRYING AS HER MOTHER IS BEING FRISKED BY AN I.C.E. AGENT.NG
FRISKED BY AN I.C.E. AGENT. AND WE HAVE IN THIS COUNTRY
RIGHT NOW THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN
WHO HAVE BEEN ORPHANED BY THE
ACTIONS OF THE UNITED STATES
GOVERNMENT.
GOVERNMENT.
AND SO WEVE TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE COUNTRY TODAY. A LOT ABOUT
THE COUNTRY TODAY. WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT MEANS,
WHAT IT HAS MEANT TO THE WORLD.
AND WE SHOULD ASK OURSELVES, IS
THIS THE UNITED STATES THAT YOU
REMEMBER?
REMEMBER?
IS THIS THE UNITED STATES THAT
YOU WANT TO BE?
IS THIS THE UNITED STATES YOU WANT THE WORLD TO SEE?TES YOU
WANT THE WORLD TO SEE? >> LET ME ADD TO THAT, THAT IVE
TALKED TO A LOT OF
CONSERVATIVES.
CONSERVATIVES.
AND IVE READ WHAT A LOT OF CONSERVATIVES HAVE SAID ABOUT
OUR CURRENT POLICY.
CONSERVATIVES WHO LIKE MYSELF,
WANT A VERY TIGHT BORDER.
AND ARE VERY TIGHT, ARE VERY
CONSERVATIVE WHEN IT COMES TO
IMMIGRATION.
IMMIGRATION.
WE BELIEVE THAT BORDERS MEAN
SOMETHING.
WE BELIEVE THAT THE FIRST THING SOMEONE DOES WHEN THEY COME INTO
OUR COUNTRY SHOULD NOT BE
VIOLATING UNITED STATES LAWS,
IM A HARD LINER ON IMMIGRATION.
AT THE SAME TIME, WHATS GOING
ON RIGHT NOW AT THE BORDER IS
UNAMERICAN.
UNAMERICAN.
I WILL TELL YOU A LOT OF CATHOLICS, LEADERS HAVE COME OUT
AND SAID, IT IS UNCHRIST-LIKE.
YESTERDAY REPORTS COMING OUT
THAT A WOMAN WAS BREAST-FEEDING
HER DAUGHTER AND IN THE MIDDLE
OF IT HER BABY WAS RIPPED AWAY
FROM HER.
FROM HER. PUBLIC DEFENDERS, IN THE FEDERAL
COURTS DOWN THERE IN TEXAS
REPORTING THAT CHILDREN ARE
BEING TOLD AND THEIR PARENTS ARE
BEING TOLD THAT THEYRE BEING
TAKEN OFF TO THE SHOWERS.
AND THAT THEYLL RETURN.
AND THEY NEVER RETURN.
YOU KNOW, I DONT HAVE TO
COMPARE THAT TO PREVIOUS REGIMES
IN OTHER HORRIFIC COUNTRIES.
THAT -- THAT CONCLUSION ACTUALLY
IS TOO OBVIOUS.
THIS IS DONALD TRUMPS AMERICA.
AND YES, IT SOUNDS LIKE
SOMETHING WE WOULD BE
CONDEMNING, COMING OUT OF NORTH
KOREA.
KOREA. AND IF THIS IS AS MITCH
McCONNELL SAYS, WHAT HE
CONSIDERS TO BE THE HIGH-WATER
MARK OF CONSERVATISM IN AMERICA,
THEN MITCH McCONNELL IS A FOOL.
MITCH McCONNELL IS AN IGNORANT
FOOL WHO KNOWS ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING ABOUT CONSERVATISM.
ABOUT EDMUND BURKE.
ABOUT RUSSELL KIRK.
ABOUT MILTON FRIEDMAN.
ABOUT -- ABOUT WILLIAM F.
BUCKLEY.
BUCKLEY.
AND YES, ABOUT THE SAINTED
RONALD WILSON REAGAN.
WHO MITCH McCONNELL SAYS, WAS
NOT AS CONSERVATIVE AS DONALD J. TRUMP. CONSERVATIVE AS DONALD J.
TRUMP.
LIFETIME DEMOCRAT AND CONTRIBUTOR TO THE DNC, NANCY
