Most Republicans predicted the president would be chastened following his acquittal in the Senate impeachment trial. Yet Trump's actions and remarks since show something different. The panel discusses.
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
You think he has regret with what he did. I think he'll be instructed by what has occurred here. What lesson did you learn from impeachment that they Democrats are crooked,

That war hero reported was the truth and we could go through

percent and the latest Reuters Ipsos among all Americans. Forty four percent with registered voters, another policy

just wait a branch but you're not gonna, get to us in the judicial Brad. So let's lay out some of these concerns for the rule of law as president from cell
rates. What many see as a blatant attack on this country's independence system of justice? It follows the Justice Department decision to.
Overall, its own prosecutors in what looks like an effort to help the
as friend, Roger Stone, get a lesser prison sentence. The present denies intervening, but his tweet criticising the recommended sentence. Just before
slashed and his tweaking.
Actual the attorney general afterward obviously suggests
but otherwise they treated
Jabez stone very badly. They traded everybody very badly and if you look
the mother investigation. It was a scam because it was illegal
we set up it's a disgrace and frankly, they are due
I chose to a lot of people whose lives Zeebrugge, and I want to thank the Justice Department for seeing this is hard,
one thing I did you speak to him by the way just say you understand they said
the horrible, those of a nine year sentence, but doing nothing
murders and drug attics it'll get nine years,
nine years for doing something that nobody even can define what he did:
Peters concerned about anything they undergo factors,
learn because I'll tell you what the way they traded people. Nobody should

I want to say that yet, but I tell you what people were heard
viciously and badly by these corrupt people. So all of that fund
all of this. After impeachment, there is the dismissal of Lieutenant Colonel
Alexander VIN men and the suggestion he should be prosecuted, the firing of
Ambassador Gordon Sunlit, the withdrawal
Treasury nomination of the former? U S attorney, who oversaw stuff

off the hook by Senate Republicans, we're seeing him do the same thing to the Justice Department. Wishing him instruct the attorney general to effectively go

dangerous things going on right now, it really sets estates for what we're up against and twenty twenty that this election and twenty two

Oh, it's so interesting that he he did that Elise, Jordan and you had

he was an american hero. You had even
Lindsey gram telling Donald Trump. He should get involved in the judicial
process,
the way he has in this Roger stone process. Of course, Donald Trump.
Listen of that remember when he was going to fire, Gordon Simon, you had all of these.
Public and senators who had just voted to acquit Quick Donald Trump unimpeachable offence.
Events, is it. He said that they said
actually that he committed going and asking
We don't fire sandwich. Donald Trump didn't listen.
And so he's one over all of these senators, because the only
on that is shown that he'll stand up and I actually act
patriotic American
means staring down. The present the United States has been bit Romney. The rest have just been shameful, and so we runs overcome
and we find ourselves where we are right now, with judicial independence at risk.
Its staggering that it's only been a week since Donald Trump was acquitted and you go through the litany of things.
That he's done just that week then
Sunland the Roger Stone

He is so empowered. He had the best week he had ever had and then

I do want to follow up on something readily said, because I agree:
She said, but she talked about Donald
vanquishing Joe Biden then- and there was a little twitter back and forth yesterday when I congratulated the present for an effect getting himself
impede stuff or a fifth place finish our new Hampshire. A lot said. Well, you know it's probably
Donald Trump dead that cause Joe Biden D,
so poorly in Iowa New Hampshire? I I actually brought up
tweet that I set out on November, the first of last year
reported what I had heard from buying fun razors that even in October, before all of this blew up
they were concerned about Joe Biden having a fourth play.

these problems and I were New Hampshire. They Cowan

That's all idea that some Donald Trump his cause, Joe Biden, poor, finishes. That's
fantasy this guy bad on the fifth place, whore
and I were New Hampshire and get himself impeached over it.
Joe. Would the greedy would agree with you with that November tree, but clearly the impact
the continued assaults on Hunter biden- charisma with Joe Biden, the former vice president linked to it, did
damage to his candidacy, Joe, you could just picked up anecdotally, but to the larger point that you are talking about,
we ve all been talking about. Transfer
Behaviour over the past week, Kurt raised the issue.
You imagine what he will be like a year from now.
If he is reelected, he'll, be totally unbound than Jim
The high last night general
these comments at the university. Where are you speaking? Here's the is one quote
now agenda Vindelin was he was tantamount to hearing in a legal order and Kelly Pray
still for doing what he did. He indicated on it,
Our girl, the Navy seal, who Donald Trump basically pardoned
was the wrong thing to do for the president and the team
Kelly may have been able to change is mine if he Kelly John Kerry,
was still in the chief of Staff office. That raises the question now
The presence of the United States seemingly has narcotics size. The entire republican membership of the United
they'd, send it to his behaviour in narcotics, sized huge elements of the country,
with this fire hose of stories each and every day, what an Democrats due to run against him.
I think there is any question like there's two two parts to it like one any republic Kane who thought that Trump was gonna change, is either being dishonest or totally delusional. Talk to anyone around Trump and Jerry
commissioner and others, and they feel more invincible than ever, and so what he's done this last week was totally predictable and
you'll see more of it, not less than that they feel stronger than ever. The way you
against and there is a weakness there. There is concern deep inside the White House at one
is it when sixty five percent of people like the economy? Why
when you have joblessness so low if he continues to pose.
We're Joe sat around somewhere in the mid forties on paper, despite Democrats
he's is actually looks more readable, then you would say from these conversations with Democrats. National poles state poles in all of them,
terms not doing well. He looks like a pretty weak incumbent president, so why do you say, while he's getting money cage? Why do you think that forty four percent, this movable seemingly unmovable forty four percent number? Why do you think that's the case because of that
the Gallup poll rate, is highest number, which is forty nine percent. One per cent of people don't have an opinion on him.
Like name a person in your life who doesn't have opinion item you either love him. Are you hate him and nobody is in the middle
but love em is somewhere around forty four forty five percent, and it has it really budged up this
is the fact that a lot of the things he said at least at the beginning of that state of the union speech in terms of the stat they were accurate. He is a million things you could point to that were there because of
not going really well in the country, but he's not benefiting from that.
So the question will come down to the question that Democrats are having, which is elected. Billowy, like
socialist be trouble, I don't know. Maybe these
Lisbon is in full panic because they think Sanders we'll below it, but in the other, Exe
Acta is Bloomberg. Remember not only is he spending the money on himself? That's all I'm himself right now, but he has said that if you
and get the nomination, which is probably more likely than not that he doesn't he's gonna put that money into defeating trump. If he,
two billion into three or four billion dollars. That's a pretty decisive advantage for Democrats,
all set their early start that Trump has gotten so
I think this raises like much more fluid than democratic acts would suggest somewhere
bandit. I think I'm gonna jump. Let me gaps are used.
Follow up Jim Jim. I didn't, I agree with you more aid. There is banned
As John Locke Hard said, a lot of bed wedding by Democrats over the past month or two and I
really understand where it's coming from only because you look at the numbers.
You and who sits been in this business long enough time
His is on the wrong side,
his is, is on the wrong side of of of history:
it's not a guy who wins a lot of elections you I remember, people

throw into that. The fact that if you look at state poles in the swing states, even Bernie
Anders does really well against him and people say. While people don't know about his policies, I think most people paying attention to politics and know that Bernie Sanders is a socialist. They know that he stands for Medicare for all. They know that stands for open borders. They know that he stands for wiping away education debt and that would we would lead to massive deficits in aerial economically,
the quinces, and yet he still beats Trump in national pole
still does well against Trump in swing. States which suggests that doesn't mean Trump will lose. It just means it he's more vulnerable than he certainly should be giving the data around him and he's more vulnerable than to use your term that that wedding Democrats might think, and
does it mean that through the nominees doesn't matter like I certainly get by the establishment Democrats are worried about Sanders, but the data does
necessarily support their concern concerned. This is specifically about sand

Sure, I'm sure gale fear feels the way you do right now. I'm sure she's still very wrong about this. I just I do know that we have a president

he said. I don't know whether you say said it in artfully or not, but what he said there
about housing is something that
most people said after the end of
crisis, not focusing on black neighborhoods or what
neighborhoods or hispanic neighborhoods or asian american neighborhoods. But just saying there was a big
from Congress? Is bizarre
legally people, like Barney Frank for banks to prove,
mortgages to a lot of men.
Hence, who could not afford to pay those mortgages regardless of race? Are gender are ethnic background,
It led to a lot of mortgages being devolved upon.
Bigger crisis and again these are things that we're all discussed in two thousand eight two thousand and nine.
Is so it's not that much of a surprise that we're finding clips and Bloomberg saying it now
It clearly is that I think that you know
were now Michael Bloomberg went to the church,
in Brooklyn and apologize stop and first he got into current
we are not told, was gonna take more than one so
No one speech to get there
didn't want apology, and I was at the forefront of the aunt I stop and for his movement didn't you,
except an apology for the apology you got
would the agreed millions of people? What impact is seven hundred thousand people pulled over
the symbols, ninety percent of them for no reason and based on a racial profiling strategy, he needs to go
through now plan I apologize. This is what I am willing to do to really show by
real efforts to repair the damage,
and show how we all have to learn from this and end be applauded better
I'm not talking about giving such donations to people and bind all support that every care pay does
dog talking about real institutional commitments to say this was wrong and we must do is to correct it
in of the whole question of red line, people
what damage, because they were got involved in bodies they couldn't afford. Everybody was,
doubt but bill? We
deal with the victims of that predatory lending that never would bailed out there would never repay it? Can
piece of institutional ways to say an apology is beginning, but is not it
otherwise is unacceptable, because it is not really an apology. The idea that poor communities a color where they were responsible for the financial grasses outrageous. Obviously, but if you listen to the mayor's tire comment from two thousand and eight,
what are you saying is in fact that it wasn't there?
dozens he's talking about Congress, pushing these loans at on the banks enforcing effectively banks to make those loans? So when you put together the totality Rev of the stop and fresh comments that we ve heard the last couple
is the red line in common. They came out yesterday. What is that
impact of all that because he does seem to be picking up. Some african american Sporty got three more members of the congressional black caucus on his yesterday he's getting endorse,
for mayors across the country. Is this
going to add up to hurt Mayor Bloomberg. I think that it,
and heard him and in many ways will hurt, but at the same time,
I think he has ask himself who he really is. Does he want
to be his legacy, even if
success or do you want to be successful and you were doing these things that were bias? Do you want
legacy to be there. I've made some mistakes and I corrected and tried to drive in an institutional way. Another way- and I think that
the victims? It was not the Congress on banks, autocrat, the victims were people the victims innocently preyed upon because it ecology the in some of us. The victims were people. Discussion were innocently preyed upon
because of the color of their skin in some of us have not led to discussion get past. What about the victims? Don't talk to use me, don't just
it. Does it try to deal with the plight that was caused by some of the decision you may whether they went tended than that you?
by some of the decisions you may, whether they went
Yesterday you made us mayor Bloomberg Winston
across the south for now is in Tennessee yesterday and join us now from Winston sale. North Carolina or mayor boom
continues to campaign. Today, national political report for NBC News, Josh, Letterman Josh, said good morning. Take us inside those events that mere Bloomberg held yesterday. One in Chad anew the one in Nashville. I think a lot of people work,
surprised by the size of the crowds area in a lot of people both event
what was it like inside the room? The
eleven hundred people at that last events. Last night in Tennessee Williams, look you know your rivals are taking you seriously when the attack start coming as well as the opposition dumps, and they are now fast and furious. Pretty much. Every day now we ve been talking with voters at these events that yesterday in Tennessee, as well as here in North Carolina this morning, as they ve been filling in for this event, starting here shortly in Winston Salem, so
but we haven't heard a lot about. Voters express a lot of concern about these remarks. There seems to be a similarity to the Biden situation where people have known MIKE Bloomberg for a long time are, they feel like they have a sense of who he is, and so they're not dramatically changing their opinion in an instant based on some of these new trouble and comments that have come to life. The Bloomberg campaign mean, while trying to mount a real show of force,
support for the mayor, including from his african american sport, as he was introduced by women yesterday in Tennessee, who said MIKE Bloomberg, is absolutely not a racist that that's not who he is, and the campaign also rolling out endorsements, as you just mentioned three from the congressional black caucus just yesterday on quitting Lucy Macbeth from nature in neighbouring Georgia, whose son was killed by the gun, violence. Obviously an issue that is very near and dear to the Bloomberg campaign, so judge the people
the eleven other people who show up in the state of tennessee- and you ask- why is mere Bloomberg in these states that both Super Tuesday
Tennessee North Carolina are they face
of Mayor Bloomberg- are they just curious about his candidacy, from which you can tell a lot of them
our fans of Mayor Bloomer and there are saying that they are planning to support him, and I think one of the reasons is he's kind of the only game in town right now you dont have Bernie Sanders
an effort in states that the other candidates have yet to pay attention to, and they look at that very favourably. As far as the role that the rest of the country has to play in shaping the process of selecting a democratic, not many very interesting dress, Letterman Winston Salem North Carolina Josh thanks. So much he's right MIKE the Bloomberg as the only game in town for eleven he's been in these primary states. These Super Tuesdays Dave
interesting Hampshire, Letterman Winston Salem North Carolina sitting thanks. So much he's right, drawing pretty
because the only game in town for a lotta he's been in its primary states. These super Tuesday state level.
But an eye one New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina. He just said
setting up shop and or I'm pretty big crowds in Tennessee Williams, and even they have more up or down sugar and have more questions about stop and frisk would have more questions about red lining the people behind Josh. Let him in that,
People who were there last night are not there for any of those reasons there there. For one reason one reason only can might Bloomberg beat Donald Trump. Ok,.
Rubber now shark and thank you so much for being on this morning. Coming out. Hey it's critias this week in my pocket. Wise is happening all be talking with computational biologist, Carl Bergs Drum, but what we do and dont know about the corona virus once these,
things get out there, and this is kind of sort of a key aspect of misinformation, and this information is the once they're out there. They really take off and they spread, and so Jonathan Swift said, SARA
four years ago that falsehood flies and truth comes limping after and and that's what happens on the internet, of course, that there is a more recent version
which is known as Brando in his book, they cemetery principle, and it says the amount of work that it takes to clean up both does an order of magnitude larger than the amount of work it takes to create it.
So we definitely see that sort of thing happening with all kinds of conspiracy theories, including this one around the virus that this week on. Why is this happening? Search for? Why is this happening wherever you're listening right now and subscribe
