humiliated by bob corker. by being accurately described by bob corker. the collective public quotes about president trump by senator corker are the worst things ever said about a president by a senator in the same party. they are now actually the worst things ever said by a senator about a president, world war iii. world war iii. there is nothing worse that you could say about a president than that he's setting the country on the path to world war iii. there is nothing worse that a president could do. donald trump is the slowest student ever to occupy the presidency and so it is taking him a long time to discover that he doesn't actually have any power over senators like bob corker but tonight the president might finally be learning, learning that lesson in the most painful way possible. by having to sit there in the white house humiliated by senator corker and being unable to attack senator corker with a tweet because he has finally discovered that bob corker has more power over him than he has over bob corker. and what the country and the world has a r

bob, buying? bob: absolutely. i'm not selling credit in here. i don't believe we are anywhere near the tights. if you go back to 2006, 1996, credit spreads got to something like 250 over. that is where we are heading. we have 100 basis points to go. we are selling the markets that are distorted. it is the central banks that bought the government bonds and compressed real yield. get rid of that stuff. right now, everyone is looking for credit. marilyn is right. corporate balance sheets, earnings, the quality of earnings all the pretty good. jonathan: wait a second. distorted markets exist across the whole fixed-income environment. bob: true. jonathan: if you want to sell distorted credit, that is it, isn't it? bob: no. there are a lot of things you can do. you can go into the loan markets. you can take out the fixed rate component. the other is you can buy spread credits. all of us can sell the treasury market against it to hedge interest rate sensitivity and just capture the credit spread. you are right. if the fed continues to normalize and the

bob: bob o'donnell here. with that billion dollars, do you think it is better spent in the u.s., or do they think internationally? gabe: well, i don't want to speak for logan and john, who are obviously experts in what they do and are doing a phenomenal job. think there is a lot of growth to be done in existing cities, and also you have canada right next door. you have mexico city. you can stay on the continent and really spread your wings, but i think what uber has learned from the experience in china with ddm, it did not end well for them overall. they had to pull out. and they had to do a deal. i think sometimes taking it slow and letting the market you are -- market much or, -- mature, following instead of leading informed markets to be smart or having partnerships. emily: at the same time, we have seen alphabet, i guess you could say, stab uber in the back in doing this. we are also seeing gm, which was a big investor in lyft, do the same thing. their division is in talks with uber to provide self-drivin

bob: it is true. before you claim i have been wrong about everything jonathan: i certainly have not done that. bob: yields could be higher and should be approaching 3% now. the other thing we have seen is the weight of quantitative easing that has come in and suffocated the market. it is that weight of the cash that has kept yields in a very narrow range. 2.15 to 2.50, for most of this year. there has been a bear market. it has been on the front end of the curve. they will raise rates in december. it will be the third time. it does not make any sense to me that they are still going this low unless you look at qe coming into the markets and supporting that. jonathan: i wish we had a camera and a microphone during the commercial break. everyone sticking with us. mike collins, bob michele, and marilyn watson. coming up, the auction block. nathan's first bond. the first since 2015 has a jump on debt, chowing down. that's coming up. this is "bloomberg real yield." ♪ ♪ jonathan: welcome back. i am jonat

that bothered bob corker. bob corker continues to say leave it to the professors, whether it's north korea or tax reform, leave it to the professionals to deal with. then you have this bigger question of what does it mean for the republican party. i've talked to strategists who have worked with corker. they thought last time around he may have had this emotional response to the president. it may not have been thought out. today, he's been thinking about this. he even said he's thought about everything he's saying out loud. this is calculated. this is unhinged. and it also puts a lot of pressure on his fellow republicans to come out against trump or to stand by him. >> again, senator bob corker made not one, not two, but three appearances on network shows, cable show, stopping at any camera that was there in the halls. 15 seconds here, really quickly what we've seen unfold this morning, is it going to have do you think a measurable impact on tax reform legislation? >> i think it does. i think the danger is what

at the end of the day, i know bob well, bob is going to vote for tennessee. he's going to vote for america. he's going to vote for tax reform because he knows it's in the best interest of americans. so put this twitter dispute aside, the fact is, we have a historic chance of actually fixing this tax code, giving people pay raises and getting the america economy growing at the rate where we can get bigger paychecks, more take home pay, a healthier economy. that's what matters. so all this stuff you see on a daily basis of twitter this and twitter that, let's focus on improving people's lives and improving that. that's what we are focused on. are you going to ask about this or -- okay, fine. >> reporter: [ inaudible ] >> i would love to answer that question. but i'm going to have to defer you to kevin brady. they hold the pen on this and are negotiating and writing the bill. all the questions will be answered when the ways and means committee puts it out. this is their jurisdiction. yeah, in the house, yes. there are different deer seasons. there's bow season,

senator bob corker. the republican chair of the senate foreign relations committee is his target and corker is not holding back, telling the new york times that thid

when you call bob corker, liddle bob corker, he's leaving the senate but there another 14 months, the way you negotiate this deal has ramifications after the deal is struck. another aspect of the president's deal making called the mad man theory of international relations, henry kissinger said of richard knicks son unpredictable it would leave the vietnamese and others wondering what he might do. might launch a nuclear weapon and might cause them to strike a better deal. the president likes to use unpredictability in all aspects of his negotiation, again is there a value in unpredict snblts. >> i mean there absolutely is a value but in the long run in the scheme of things, it's not an effective strategy. i mean you put it down to a practical -- to simplify the situation, every time my wife and i get into a conflict, if i threaten to walk out of the relationship or to sue her family, that's not going to help us come to good solutions to the problems that we might have. i think in the international arena, the same basic concept holds true. constantly threatening does not allow people to

bob: so far. charlie: what is fascinating is how you came to write this and withonversation you had someone who basically said, what is happening in journalism is an issue of national security. csis, theead of center for strategic and international study in washington, the leading in washington. but there are some other really good ones. but the doctor, who was deputy secretary of defense during the clinton administration and a ise intellectual, he respected by people on both sides and all sides of foreign-policy issues, we were having coffee with andrew schwartz, who was with me on this book. he is the chief of communications that csis. we were just talking about journalism and where it is today and with all of this fake news, questions about, what can you believe and all that. the doctor said, this is a national security issue. andrew and i started a series of podcasts where we started calling a people in all sorts of journalism. the editor of "the washington post," reporters for "politico." mor

world war ii, in bob corker's words. i guess the question is, does that coalition hold if the world that donald trump promised doesn't come to pass? >> i think there's certainly people in donald trump's corner, certainly after charlottesville, that are going to stay there forever no matter what. if there's a tape that comes out tomorrow of him and vladimir putin talking about colluding, there are people that will stay stay in his camp. it's important to make the distinction. donald trump was framed as someone unfiltered and who was authentic and not reckless. that's what happened yesterday when you saw senator flake essentially say, no, it's not just outrageous behavior. it's not just out of the box tweets. it's reckless behavior that impacts foreign policy and domestic policy. regardless of whether or not the coal cisiition is going to stay him if he says offensive things, we need to think in terms of national security issues. more senators in the republican party need moral courage and stand up and be patriots because

bob o'donnell is still with me. walk us through the potential candidates here. >> this could be a real turning point for samsung. it has been run by the elder statesman for many decades, and of course, his son, the cochair, jay y. lee, is behind bars as he is appealing a five-year sentence for various bribery charges. there is a long list of potential candidates, and it will give us an indication of the type of generational change that samsung says it wants to do, because the current ceo is stepping down after the preliminary numbers came out a couple weeks ago. the ceo stepping down, saying the company and the conglomerate needs young leadership as it goes through this unprecedented crisis. you are seeing some of the names here. i can run through them pretty quickly. kim ki-nam is president of the most profitable division, the memory chips and semiconductors. he is a lifer at samsung and really spearheading their push into the next generation. his protÉge is a candidate, as well, in the same division. he is a semi

bob, buying? bob: absolutely. i'm not selling credit in here. i don't believe we are anywhere near the tights. if you go back to 2006, 1996, credit spreads got to something like 250 over. that is where we are heading. we have 100 basis points to go. we are selling the markets that are distorted. it is the central banks that bought the government bonds and compressed real yield. get rid of that stuff. right now everyone is looking , for credit. marilyn is right. corporate balance sheets, earnings, the quality of earnings all the pretty good. jonathan: wait a second. distorted markets exist across the whole fixed-income environment. bob: true. jonathan: if you want to sell distorted credit, that is it, isn't it? bob: no. there are a lot of things you can do. you can go into the loan markets. you can take out the fixed rate component. the other is you can buy spread credits. all of us can sell the treasury market against it to hedge interest rate sensitivity and just capture the credit spread. you are right. if the fed continues to normalize and th

three inches shorter than bob corker. and of course donald trump has no idea how tall james madison was or anything else about james madison other than he might be the guy who madison avenue is named after. which of course he is. multiple reports indicate that president trump was fuming about bob corker for days after the senator said this about secretary of state rex tillerson. >> i think secretary tillerson, secretary mattis, and chief of staff kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos. >> senator corker said that right after rex tillerson was reported to have referred to the president as a moron in a meeting of senior administration staff at the pentagon. the president talked about being called a moron in an interview published by forbes today. the questioner said there are reports out today over the last couple of days about you calling him a moron privately. has he talked, reached out to you than? do you believe that? do you believe that he said that? trump said, "well, we may -- we may have to

but, you know, talk about devolution, and bob corker said it but it beautifully. >> she said that bob corker was grand standing. >> you know how he ended that speech w the second moist beautiful speech in american history, lincoln's second inaugural. he said what we have to do is appeal to the better angels of our nature. the thing about donald trump is he has never, not once, appealed to the better angels of our nature, as a people and as a republic. and when bob corker talks about the debasement of the republic, he's talking about the undermining of these principles, the principle of separation of powers. >> do we have that corker on debasement? i never thought i would call that up. we don't have that. we're going to get it. we had it earlier. we have corker on debasement, debasing the nation, oh, we have got it. here it is. >> do you think this president is debasing the nation? >> i don't think that's any question that that's the case, just in the way he conducts himself and goes to such a low level. i just -- i do. but look, i mean the rest of us need to do what we can to act as s

and that provoked bob corker to say this this morning on cbs. let's listen do it. >> i would let the tax writing committees do their work. i think both the house and senate has done a lot of preliminary work, and stay out of taking things off the table and really negotiating against the process before it even begins. >> jonathan, donald trump directly interpreted that as a criticism of him. >> yeah. so, the range on what this tax bill does to the deficit ranges from 1.5 trillion with a t, to 2.2 trillion. we're talking real money, and this decision on the 401(k)s brings it up closer to 2 trillion because it's hundreds of billions of dollars that they're talking about. so, i don't actually think it's that hard of an idea logical test for jeff flake. he's been a deficit hawk. this is an enormously irresponsible bill for any principled republican. yes, he likes tax cuts, but this is an insane bill if you care at all about the solvency of the united states, which jeff flake does. so, i actually think the odds are a little higher than he will join mc

and bob corker says, that's not true. so why does the president insist on repeating these misstatements? >> i wasn't in that meeting. but on the issue of iran, senator corker did work with the obama administration to change it to a 60-vote threshold to disapprove as opposed to the 60-votes to approve the treaty. so i think that the president's criticisms there are fair. nonetheless, we also, i think that senator corker recognizes some of the problems with that initial deal. and we think that as we look forward to making changes to his committee, that he'll have to be a large part of that. >> i have two tax questions, do you talk to the president about the things that aren't untrue? >> hallie, i'm rejecting your premise that he's not being truthful here. i talk to the president about communications but not accepting your premise. >> agree. we'll agree to disagree on this when it comes to the fact-checking because i want to get you on a couple things on taxes, number one, kevin brady is talking this morning, very important

bob corker who helped with the bad iran deal is now fighting tax cuts. and senator corker is incompetent head of foreign relations committee and look how poorly the u.s. has done. he doesn't have a clue as the world was laughing and taking advantage of people like little bob corker have set the u.s. way back. corker calling trump an utterly untruthful president, # alert the daycare staff and then delivered blistering criticism of president trump hours before the luncheon. >> i think the standing up in front of the american people and stating untruths that everybody knows to be untrue, attempted bullying that he does which everybody sees through. just dividing of our country, the name calling is something that is i think debasing to our country. you would think he would aspire to be the president of the united states and act like a president of the united states, but that's just not going to be the case. >> well, as we wait for the president to leave capitol hill let's get to our team of reporters who are covering every angle of the story. joining me from

we have bob redell who has been following that part of the story for us. bob? >> reporter: good morning to you, kris and marcus. i'm looking at the fire that is burning in very steep terrain. it's 125 acres here in the santa cruz mountains and in the early morning before we had the sun come up, the red glow, the jagged line of the ridge of the fire burning through the dense vegetation up there. as i mentioned, it's steep and understandable why a firefighter, in the dark, would find himself in a situation where they fell. the firefighter is 25 years old, 30-40 minutes ago, tumbled down a low incline hill according to the battalion chief and stumbled 50 feet into the creek. fortunately, the firefighter is going to be okay. he had the wind knocked out of him, a laceration on the face and possibly broke his wrist. there's a rescue under way to extra kate him. we are down further than we were earlier where there was an ambulance who drove down the road to meet up with the firefighter when they are able to get him out. the inmate suffered smoke inhilation, taken to t

bob o donnell. sarah, great piece today detailing how facebook handles fake news and how that process has evolved. talk to us about how today facebook is handling this process. sarah: the process is still very humid. -- huamman. they have a way for people to flag fake news on their website. if enough people flag a story as potentially false, it will end up on a dashboard of these back-checking partners' sites. can look at this dashboard and link by link click if it is true or false. two they do that, if organizations mark something as false, it gets a disputed flag on facebook. there are so many duplicate links about the same false story, by the time you debunk one of them, it has appeared on 20 other websites. checkers have told me how tedious this process can be and how they feel like they are probably only scratching the surface in terms of the fake news that is out there. emily: is facebook reevaluating this process? what is facebook's approach now? sarah: it is most important that they don't ru

the president is not finished with bob corker. a different showdown could be on tap as tillerson meeting with president trump. let's go to the white house. the president, this morning, taking to twitter to make his feelings known about bob corker again. >> it's the latest volley in the back and forthwith senator bob corker of tennessee, and it goes all the way back to the violence in charlottesville, virginia, after the president responded to the violence there involving a white nationalists and neo-nazis, all the way through last weekend where there was a back and forth between the president and senator corker, and now this today, this tweet this morning reads, failing "new york times" set little bob corker up by recording his conversation to be made to look with a fool, and that's what i am dealing with. and the little bob corker reminiscent of what he said about marco rubio. we have been told the president is not through with corker. in some ways that's an attempt by the administration and the president's allies to show strengt

i think the fourth tweet today about bob corker by donald trump and it says, quote, bob corker gave us the iran deal, that's about it. we need health care, tax cuts, reform, we need people to get the job done. trump is very upset with bob corker in particular he's upset with the public criticism that the senator from tennessee has given in donald trump's direction. one of them came from during the summer over august and then there was one just this week. let's listen to them both. >> i think secretary tillerson, secretary mattis and chief of staff kelly are those people that helped separate our country from chaos. the president has not yet been able to demonstrate the stability nor some of the competence that he needs to demonstrate in order to be successful. >> and if it's anything we know about donald trump, when he feels that he is underattacked, he responds and he responds in a big way. when bob corker announced that he was deciding not to run for re-election this week, that's what set the president off claiming that he was begging donald trump for his endorsement and when the pres

if donald trump is taking a fight with bob corker and bob corker is not backing down, that down in flames. could be a concern. donald trump has picked fights with mitch mcconnell, john mccain, but this is the first time somebody has been giving it as good as he has gotten. laura: the white house revived that with the nfl. would happen to the vice president being drawn in? anthony: the vice president flew to his hometown indianapolis, indiana, showed up to a football game and stood for the national anthem and walked out because some members of the san francisco 49ers that were protesting for years knelt. there has been criticism that this is a long way and a lot of money to spend to make a statement. donald trump tweeted out his praise of mike pence saying he asked him to do this. and and some nfl players are upset but i think donald trump supporters, this is another example of mike pence and donald trump on the same playbook of standing up for patriotism and the american flag. laura: let's turn now to the fate of the dreamers. young people were brought here illegally as children, they got

bob: no, not in the least. the way samsung is structured is an extraordinarily complex combination of companies. because of that it is difficult for one change to dramatically shift things. at the same time, it is well respected within the organization, so whoever comes into this role will have to be really good not only at knowing all these businesses, but at herding all these businesses. they are very distinct and run differently, even under the brand of samsung electronics itself. emily: when are we expecting a decision? stephen: we could get it, it will be later today when they break out there further results, and we will get peppered. i'm sure senior leadership will get peppered by analysts and journalists about the hierarchical succession planning, which has been disarray throughout the jay y. lee crisis. keep your eyes on one in particular person. he is known as the digital evangelist at samsung. he, for years, has been campaigning against easing the hierarchical structure at samsung. he could rise to th

everything that bob corker said is true. is there anybody out there that does not believe that part of john kelly's job is being a highly decorated four star baby-sitter. is there anybody out who doesn't think that donald trump makes up things otherwise known as lying, blatant lying. he did it about bob corker. so we have got a president of the united states who acts be crazy. it's crazy to be staging and to be giving more flames to an nfl protest fabricated staged debate and stunt when you've got 3.5 million puerto ricans still living in perilous conditions and who have no water and electricity when you have got 58 families mourning the death of their loved ones in the most -- the biggest mass shooting in u.s. history. and he is spending time on that. that is crazy. it is insane. it is indefensible. and somebody has got to say it. if it took bob corker resigning and not running again for him to say it, well, thank god. maybe more of them should retire. >> robby, i want to get your take on. this is what michael -- how he's i

>> i want to go back to bob corker. so, it seems to me if you look at what bob corker has said, tom, and you look at the fact that there's not a single republican in the senate that is contradicted bob corker and said that corker is off base, that donald trump's erratic actions are not leading us to world war iii, you wonder if there's ever going to be a moment like we saw -- i think it must have been august 7th or 8th back in 1974 when barry goldwater and john rhodes and hugh scott went down to the white house and told richard nixon that it was over. now, we don't need a republican delegation telling donald trump that. but if you have the top-ranking republican of the united states senate on foreign affairs saying the commander in chief is leading us towards world war iii, should republicans not put together a delegation and march down to the white house and make certain demands of this erratic president? and then come out and assure the rest of us that bob corker is wrong, that donald trump is not leading us towards a

i think what bob corker said is important and you will hear more republicans. >> bob corker, the only reason why bob corker said this, is because bob corker could not win a re-election and the people of tennessee -- >> but -- >> have walked away from supporting him. let me finish. >> i'm saying -- >> i'm saying the fact -- >> are his ideas worthy. >> bob corker is upset and he is walking a away from the u.s. senate -- >> we're out of time. >> is what bob corker said correct. it -- >> i would say no. >> talk about his ideas. >> thank you. you'll be back. we appreciate it. breaking news this morning. >> all right. american woman, this is important, an american woman and her canadian husband and three children have been freed after five years in taliban custody. >> to barbara starr who joins us at the pentagon with more. free finally the three little kids and their parents. >> indeed, this news breaking overnight and good news to report. let's emphasize that for a change. very good news to report. this american woman caitlan coleman, her canadian husband joshua boyle, and three small chi

bob corker versus donald trump. it is completely out there in the open, but you look at the other senators, too, that find themselves in that position, whether it's john mccain or jeff flake or lisa murkowski at times, heller at times, you can go down the list. two things are really significant. one, people really do believe this guy may be setting himself up to be, the not named, but in reality, an independent president a. guy that's completely plane up, his voting coalition. that's the second most significant thing, willie, how does he get 50 votes on tax reform? how does he get 50 votes on infrastructure? right now, nobody even inside the white house knows, because these wars actually upend his majority, his governing mo jaert. >> that's the frustration we heard from mitch mcconnell's office yesterday, they are trying to get things done this certainly doesn't help. with us to talk about it all, president on the foreign relations, author of the book a world in disarray. national political reporter carol lee, senio

because bob corker is saying plenty. telling "the new york times" that the president could put the country on the path to world war iii. calling on his senators to say what they say privately publicly. but will they? will this trigger new reaction from the foreign house committee itself? >>> and down pennsylvania avenue with democrats already upset about this apparent demand for a border wall, tied to a plan to help so-called dreamers in this country, one source telling us that wish list might be a non-starter. >>> and burying underneath it all, the deadly crisis gripping this country, the opioid epidemic simmering still more than eight weeks after the president said he would declare a national emergency. so far he has not. talk versus action again as we talk with kate snow in our ongoing special series on the opioid crisis and the devastating effects on kids. kids whose parents are hooked on heroin. >>> first, we want to start with the big political headline of the day involving kristen welker at the white house with ne

you have an establishment class candidate in bob corker -- a class senator in bob corker that's held himself above the fray and conducted himself by what most republicans think they republican senator should act like. there are republicans like me that quite frankly, we're sick of the same old, same old and we wanted someone to go in there and substantially change what was happening in washington and donald trump has done that and more and he's continued to fight the system. it's two different thoughts there. i wish they were talking about tax reform today, but you know, is there a possibility that maybe senator corker is thinking about running in 2020? >> yeah, we don't know. we can't predict the future, but it's a good point. i want to hit pause on this corker-trump conversation because we also have new video coming in. it's columbus day. folks are playing golf and the president is playing golf with of all people someone who has criticized the president and someone who doesn't mince his words and that being fellow south carolinian lindsay graham. what do you make of these pictures?

the president's former advisor slammed top gop advisers, including bob corker. >> bob corker has trashed the commander in chief of our armed forces while we have young men and women in harm's way, right? he said he's leading them on a path to world war iii, that he is not stable, that people have to keep him moderated, that it's an adult -- it's what an adult center and they took the morning shift off? some u.s. senator in a position of that authority for the first time in the history of our republic has mocked and ridiculed a commander in chief. >> but what has the commander in chief done? all right, that's rhetorical because i'm going right to garrett haake who's at the summit with more on this. so what else did steve bannon say, garrett? >> reporter: i think he had two big golds. the first was to rally the idea that conservatives, particularly evangelicals, conservative catholics, the folks who were at this conference, that they are allies of donald trump. that they are driving this. it's a movement and that they need to stay with the president, that he needs them as their natural all

and possibly even laying groundwork to fire bob mueller. and that is going to be a real test for republicans, who claim to believe in the rule of law. >> do you think it's possible, senator, that he might -- that president trump might fire bob mueller? and if so, what do you think the response would be, do you think? >> no, i don't think it's possible at least at this point he's going to fire him -- particularly now that off charge coming forward, and obviously, the grand jury was able to provide an indictment. i think it's going to be very perilous for the president to do something like that. but i don't think they're going to stop the narrative, nor is congress doing to stop the narrative that there are other things for bob mueller to be looking at with respect to the clintons and the dnc and all the things that were going on there that seem to be much more evidence than cooperation with russia than what we've seen so far from the trump administration. >> governor? >> it's just so ridiculous! yeah! she colluded with russia to lose the ele

this latest feud with bob corker. if they haven't jumped off the wagon by now, i kind of think they're in it through 2018. >> well, again, they want to get something done, what this means, though, to getting something done, when these are the relationships that are playing out on the hill, that's where the conversation goes. because mya will tell you and we'll have you back on, tax reform, it's so easy, that's why they haven't done it in three decades. great to see you guys. >> thanks, kate. >> thank you so much. >> all right. coming up from us, we could hear from president trump any moment now at an awards ceremony in the oval office ahead of the lunch on capitol hill. we're going to bring you that as soon as it happens. plus this, a new timeline is emerging on the ambush that killed four americans in niger. many questions remaining, including why it took -- why was there an hour lapse before the u.s. soldiers called in for air support. what could that mean? details ahead. i had frequent heartburn, but my doctor reco

he said the comments from bob corker are unhelpful. i want to bring in the man behind that breath-taking interview. >> reporter: no question, senator corker has been enormously frustrated with this president for saying what corker says are untruths about him, specifically about constantly saying, john, that he should not -- he would not have run for re-election, and he didn't run for re-election because the president told him he would not endorse him. that's something corker said is so untrue. he would not say liar, but he essentially called the president of the united states a liar, he said on four separate occasions he told him he would endorse him, and even urging him to reconsider a run for re-election. corker has been enormously frustrated at the way the president has consistently gone after him in an untruthful way. on top of that, he's concerned about the president's actions and undercutting the people in trump's administration who corker does respect, like secretary of state, rex tillerson, and general james mattis, as well as

bob kelly? >> oh, oh, you got it, 4:11, good morning, everybody, we have construction coming our way today. the eastbound schuylkill right near the roosevelt boulevard will tie us up. outside, say good morning to the ben franklin franklin parkway. cool shot but a wet one. sue has your forecast when we come right back. >> ♪ >> ♪ >> welcome back, a little peter gabrielle, the rain not red but certainly coming down, another bad hair day, sue serio? >> i got the industrial strength hair spray out this morning. >> extra hold. >> yes, you just need helmet head for today, or a good hat, or a really good raincoat with a hood. now, we've got rain that's pretty much through the entire area, except for southern delaware, which is the only place we saw rain yesterday at this time. i think the earlier you leave, the more rain you're going to see this morning. and as we zoom in to philadelphia, see some darker green there. and that's the heaviest to steadier rain, nothing extreme out there, no thunder or

but bob corker has been pushing back. bannon is operating as a free agent and he is talk about the same senators and while people have been trying to guide donald trump back to a more mainstream position, he still has a lot of anti—establishment rebel. he doesn't see himself as part of republican party, he is happy to aim his fire at whoever draws his ire at that particular time. i am sure he will carry on doing it and we will keep on talking about it. thank you. thank you. now those whose lives could be changed by what permits may or may not be available to people who came into the us as children illegally, well their wait goes on. the bbc has been speaking to some of them. well their wait goes on. the bbc has been speaking to some of themm brea ks been speaking to some of themm breaks my heart and it breaks me mentally. i remember being little, knowing that, not knowing what was going to happen. ijust that, not knowing what was going to happen. i just knew that, not knowing what was going to happen. ijust knew we were

a person of course republican senator bob corker. now former white house strategist steve bannon calling for him to step down. >> establishment globalist click on capitol hill have to go. if we need anymore proof about what they think you heard it tonight. if bob corker has any honor, any decency, he should resign immediately. >> ban non demanding that senator corker resign for his open skepticism of president trump's fitness to lead. that expressed in an interview with the "new york times." we now have audio. let's listen. >> i do worry that -- sometimes i feel like he's on a reality show of some kind. and you got to realize that we could be heading towards world war iii with the kind of comments he's making. >> sources also telling cnn the president is lashing out at corker in part over frustration that his legislative agenda is stalled in congress. the president needs senatorers like corker to get that passed. he has been supportive of his agenda. one source tells cnn corker has more allies in the senate than the president. there

donald trump repeatedly says bob corker, bob corker who gave us the iran deal. and as i said, bob corker actually what does he do, he actually wrote an opinion piece in the "washington post" in august of 2015 saying the iran deal is a bad deal. it will make iran resur jant in the middle east and it will be a serious problem and since congress must reject the iran deal and send it back to obama. >> joe, from this tweets that you're just reading from the tweets of the past week taking on a war widow is further evidence of the sad, sad fact that the president of the united states is not a complete man. he is not a whole individual. whole individual. he has a gam gap p in him. that gap is without truth. it's without credibility. it's without empathy. that's the sad fact of our lives. >> what do preachers then, a lot of preachers are lined up behind donald trump. that's a lie. what i just showed was a lie. we could literally spend a three hour show five days a week showing you something that donald trump knowingly and willingly lied about and then put up a document t

with bob corker. that's a fact. if he thought he could win re-election, he would have went for re-election. there were a lot of conservatives going to go against him. he was in significant stroubl because he has been a fraud compared to what he said to the voters he was going to do. the president to call him out -- >> the president alienating himself or potentially further alienating himself within the gop leadership if he's going to say these disparaging things about bob corker. he needs members on the hill to get perhaps tax reform done. >> again, when -- >> he needs bob corker's vote. >> when donald trump is playednitis on capitol hill, starting when he met with a a lot of the leadership and started after he was inaugurated in january, they not helped him out at all in the senate. that's just a fact. they put -- they've been fake about it. they've said, oh, we're going to whip votes for you. mitch mcconnell, bob corker, we're going to work with you on these issues. they have not helped out this pre

he lied about bob corker begging him for an endorsement and when he said bob corker begged to be secretary of state. corker said in realtime he couldn't do it. even when you talked about the iran deal, he said the only thing bob corker gave us was the iran deal. bob corker voted against the iran deal. if you're a senator and you see misinformation go out constantly, again, at what point do you say enough is enough? this man is not connected with reality? >> well, it is interesting. does there become a cascade effect where others feel liberated to speak the way senator corker has? we said repeatedly again, senator corker is not running for reelection. this is 52 republican senators. you lose one, two, and sudden lu you're no longer the governing party. this is a dangerous situation for the president, because you can't afford to lose bob corker. katty mentioned corker is an important player even on tax reform. he's troubled by the idea of adding hundreds of billions of dollars to the budget. even tax reform, it comes outside of this president's reach. and so this is a big situation. that's w

corker. >> now you bring up bob corker, david. let me get to something today. obviously, flake wasn't the only gop senator to take a stand against the president. corker also did, in a different way. but here he is. >> i don't know why he lowers himself to such a low, low standard and debases our country in the way he does, but he does. >> so david, will more republicans speak out now? >> i don't know. we'll see. looking in the responses to senator flake's speech, to what senator corker said earlier today, speaker paul ryan tried to just chalk this up as a twitter spat between corker and the president. not actually addressing the unbelievable claims and indictment of trump's character that corker was making while walking the halls of congress there. and after senator flake's speech, both mcconnell and ryan praised flake for being the committed conservative that tims talks about that he is, but there was no indication that they were actually, you know, listening to his words or acting on them in some way. >> no, i mean, let me, to y
