we're here in washington. we're in this library because we thought that would be an appropriate place given how you've spent most of your life. you know, you've moved to washington twice in your life, once as a young woman. >> uh-huh. >> and later in your life you came here as a harvard professor, as a part-time chair of an oversight commission when the financial crises broke. that's when we got to know each other. you write in this great autobiography, you wrote this great memoir, about the experience of going to t"the daily show" when jon stewart was the host, and you were a bit nervous. >> yes. so remember, this is in the financial crises. i've never done any part of this, and yet we've got to talk to the american people about what's going on, so this is kind of the first time i've done a lot of press. now, i get invited to be on "the daily show." everybody's getting ready and they fuss with your makeup and hair and i'm sitting there thinking this is going to be really scary and hard. and i go in the little

take look at the chart compiled by the "washington post." only senator elizabeth warren beats ocacio-cortez is fox news mentions. senator harris running close behind. you can see this on "the huffington post" as well. people must be clicking. that's why that happened. >> she has views that are outside of the mainstream of the traditional democratic party. she is driving the conversation in ways that other democrats cannot given just her legion of twitter followers and the focus that is on her. the challenge is for the democratic leadership making sure that base of the party, that element of the caucus, particularly nancy pelosi, does not go to war with the more moderate members of her caucus to ensure that they can keep the majority in 2020. the reason why nancy pelosi is speaker is because those moderate democrats won in districts in which republicans held those seats. but they're going to collide. they have already collided on procedural fights over in the early parts of this congress. it's going to continue as we get into the policy issue

you're looking at live pictures from washington, d.c. of course on the right is the white house, what's going on behind those doors right now? on the left, most importantly today that's outside the special counsel's office. we are waiting to see if today is the day that robert mueller

in the meantime, that's happening in washington, d.c., in washington state across the country, boeing is now unveiling an overhaul to its software system. today it actually is hosting about 200 pilots and industry stakeholders and they're showcasing the software fix. so we've learned that this is a pretty big update. it would force the 737 max to rely on two indicators to determine the plane's angle instead of just one previously and it would also prevent any downward angle that can't be counter acted manually by the pilot. that was, of course, the big issue that they know of that investigators have concluded with that lion air crash. one other thing, brooke, that software warning light that elaine chao was discussing there, as part of this fix, one of those indicators will now be a standard feature instead of an optional one. so boeing unveiling all of this today and brooke, we know as it comes to that software fix, they actually plan to submit their final fix and all of the compliant documents to the faa a little bit later this week. obviously working furiously to make a lot of thes

he talks about policy measures that are very difficult to get past here in washington. however, he's also very influential. if you go back to 2015, 2016, it was bernie sanders who took the debt caratic party as you know, poppy, moving it incredibly to the left, raising minimum wage and, of course, medicare for all. >> totally. when you look at the poll, what does it tell you that democratic voters are looking for most in a candidate. >> you feel hopeless. you feel helpless in many ways except for what you see in the house of representatives because the democrats have control of that chamber. what do you want to do? you want to defeat donald trump. look at these numbers here. that's the kind of trait they want to see in a democratic nominee. 56%. only 35% believe that they want somebody that is entirely in lockstep with their beliefs. again, this is going to be a very important question as we go forward, poppy, specifically with the field of upwards of 20 candidates all trying to vie for the voters' attention and support of the voters. many have similar policy divisions.

i'm wolf blitzer in washington. the special counsel, robert mueller, has submitted his report to the justice department, to the new attorney general bill barr. bill barr has just submitted a four-page, single-spaced letter to congress with a lot of details. his conclusions on what robert mueller and his special counsel team came up with. bottom line, he concludes there was no collusion. the president keeps saying no collusion. the special counsel concludes there was no conspiracy, no solution, certainly not enough to prosecute anyone involving the trump administration. terms of coordination with russia during the u.s. presidential election. there's not enough evidence to go ahead and find that anyone obstructed justice, that the president did not obstruct justice, that the bottom line, they quote the special counsel in this letter, as saying while this report does not conclude the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him. that's a direct quote from robert mueller's findings after nearly two years.

"the washington post" editorial page puts it very simply. if this was meant to be an interrogation that went rogue, why would you bring a bone saw to an interrogation? >> well, first of all, nobody has shown us that bone saw. >> how was he dismembered? >> again, not to get gruesome, but i saw an interview on television with a doctor that said any saw could dismember a human being. >> why did they bring any saw? >> look, he was killed, and it seems like he was dismembered and the body was disposed of, so, i mean, it's a tragic, horrible event. but you cannot put the stability of a country or the strategic relationship between the united states of america and saudi arabia hostage to the unfortunate death of one individual. >> it's a question that has haunted the united states for years. does allying with saudi arabia come at too high a price? >>> still ahead, the biggest u.s./saudi crisis. 9/11. why did bin laden hate america so much? the little-known story when we come back. from the very beginning ... it was always our singular focus, to do

it is part of dana bash's "badass women in washington." doug high is a former communications director for the republican national committee. it seems pretty clear that president trump is attempting to insult george conway by calling him mr. kellyanne conway. but if someone were to refer to me as mr. carrie nobles, i would consider that to be the highest compliment. how can this continue? how can kellyanne conway continue to work for donald trump if he's continuing to say these things about her husband and her husband saying these things about him? >> yeah. i think so much of what we've seen in this white house over the past couple years is really reminiscent of professional wrestling where donald trump is sometimes the bad guy, sometimes the good guy. whether you cheer him or you boo him, as long as you're watching they're happy. that also means that a lot of this is prescripted in advance. not to say it's fake, but it's prescripted in advance. we know that donald trump always defines himself as a counter puncher. these aren't necessarily

the judge overseeing the case in washington, d.c. is amy berman jackson, she has had a combative history with the former campaign chair. judge jackson is presiding over a series of special counsel robert mueller's cases. she has become a key figure in the larger story here. cnn's laura jarett is live in washington with much more on this. laura. >> reporter: no matter today's outcome, it will be a significant moment in the legacy of the russia investigation. paul manafort facing a tough judge, a former prosecutor, harvard educated who knows his case inside and out, and the big question is whether judge jackson is going to throw the book at him or offer some leniency. she's the judge who originally put paul manafort behind bars. now judge amy berman jackson is back in the spotlight with the power to put manafort in prison another ten years. >> i feel very badly for paul manafort. >> an obama appointee unanimously confirmed by the senate, jackson has been overseeing a series of cases related to robert mueller's investigation. >> what's

it was november of 2017 and we were actually in the afghanistan embassy in washington, d.c. because -- >> i remember. >> she wanted -- she's so passionate about afghanistan, about the young women and education. so we talked a lot about that, but she also shared this about when she invited -- or when she had a conversation with melania trump. here she was. >> have you had any conversations with the current first lady? >> sure. i've talked to melania. i've been back. i had tea with her, saw all the staff. she very nicely had the whole white house staff standing around the oval at the diplomatic procession room. >> any message? >> she's doing a lovely job. she's a beautiful woman and a wonderful representative for the united states. >> what did you think about that? >> well, i knew about that visit and i just -- what i think that's an example of is just -- this is the continuum of service to our country, is that you are a temporary custodian of a position and you want the best for the people that succeed you and you learn from the people that come before you. it doesn't surpris

they have a large newly elected young generation here in washington, d.c. but, what's just as important as who you are messaging to, it is your message. across the age spectrum, people want to make sure the economy is strong, we are a safe and secure country and the policies that the person you represent are executing them. hillary is right in the heart of where, i think, is a perfect place for democratic candidates to be. as she said, this is left leaning millennials, a great opportunity for them to road test their message and engage millennials and also, fund raising. it's exciting to see democrats there, at this event, catering to the young people. at the end of the day, it's not just what you are saying, who you are saying it to, but exactly the message you want to convey and how it resinates. i would strongly encourage democrats not to focus on who is going to be the best candidate for them in the primary. they need to find someone that is going to go head-to-head with donald trump. so, that under 40, gabbert. democrats had a rather challenging week, p

perhaps the most private public figure in washington. but he still is a political pinata there was no collusion. never handle. >> it's hard to remember that at the start -- >> i think he's the right guy at the right time. >> mueller was a bipartisan favorite. >> he would have been on anybody's list of let's say the top five people in the country to have taken on this kind of a responsibility. >> the resume is long. at 74 he's been involved for decades in some of the justice department's most celebrated cases. mock sister john gotti. and the pan am will 103 bombing in lockerbie, scotland, in 1988. a case the still remains personal. >> i'll never forget the visit i made to lockerbie. i saw the smallwooden warehouse in which were stored the various effects of your loved ones. a white sneaker. a syracuse sweatshirt. christmas presents and photographs. >> he's been effectively the same bob mueller in every place he's ever worked. whether that was the u.s. attorney general's office in san francisco in the 1970s, whether that was the george h.w

we learned a little bit about their marriage in the "washington post." and interesting we even have kellyanne conway saying something. does this go anywhere? how much does it read into it. >> conway clearly doesn't like the president. >> you think? >> how did you get the impression? >> only if you read the tweets over time you come to that conclusion. i actually don't think it's appropriate what he's doing. if you have a spouse in public service in that way you ought to keep it to yourself. i think people will try to read into it. i think it's been suggested does he know more than other people know? perhaps. i think he's an opponent of the president using his forum, making it uncomfortable for his wife. they submitted to a "washington post" profile. they're kind of hiding in plain sight. i don't know how far it goes other than the obvious mellow drama of a senior advisor's spouse being so public about all of this. >> funny you mentioned that "washington post" profile they submitted themselves to. the author will be here. >> i set that up. well done. >> c

the author, the magazine chief washington kcorrespondent. it can be hard at times to tell who is behind the wheel in all this. whether it's fox advocating for policy positions that the president latches onto or the president oadvocating for polic positions that fox news latches onto. >> it's impossible to tell who is really calling the tune. i spent months working on the story and talked to more than 75 people and kept looking at fox and watching trump's tweets. it's just a constant loop back and forth and back and forth. some days it seems like fox and friends starts with a particular subject and then president trump tweets about it. some days it's the other way around. >> there's also the number of people from fox who work in the administration. >> these are major posts. there's been people from the media who have landed in spokesman jobs in various administratio administrations. what you see in the trump administration is play jmajor p are being filled by talking heads from fox. the particular thing that got me going on there story was th

fast forward swamps now probably knee high than ankle mhigh and not much has changed in washington and may be worse. >> how do you evaluate where we are and his performance? >> i can list the things that i think are helpful that help propel a little faster economic growth. the tax cuts, the regulatory changes, the judiciary over the long run. all those things are positive. he's put good people in areas of government that i admire where i think the president, it's work in progress would be on the trade issues. you parachute it in from mars. you would think that's a liberal advocating protectionism. we haven't had major crisis to deal with but there unilateralism is dangerous. our friends feel they can no longer entrust the united states and our enemies feel emboldened. >> when i talked to my republican friends, they say look, we got judges. we got tax cuts. we've got deregulation but they say we have to tolerate a little bit of dishonesty. a little bit of incivility. >> that's where i think they're wrong. good things in terms of policy and applauds them. >> we would debate some of those

they certainly couldn't do it within washington, d.c., the drain the swamp. there is some element of truth to that. by sort of getting -- drawing the spotlight to himself, drawing this attention, paul manafort really put himself in that courtroom. >> laura, it looks like maybe the biggest mistake he made in his life was going to work for the trump campaign. >> and there's still so many open questions that susan has said many times, about how this fits into the larger story of potential collusion that mueller was supposed to be investigating, between the trump campaign and the russian government. remember, manafort was one of the original four. when the fbi first opened its counterintelligence probe way back during the campaign, manafort was at the heart of that. he continued to be. obviously, all those cases then get funneled over to mueller. but we still don't know, why was he sharing polling data with constantin klemnik? why are they still redacted? what part of this is still ongoing, if anything, having to do with questions of a larger conspiracy? >> you u

. >> as the crowd listened he evoked last summer in washington. >> i gave him the kind of funeral he wanted which has president i had to approve. i don't care about this. i didn't get thank you. that's okay. >> trump also feuding with the husband of his top aid kellyanne conway after her husband questioned his mental stability. >> i really don't know him. i think he is doing a tremendous disservice to a wonderful wife. the fact is he is doing a tremendous disservice to a wife and family. she is a wonderful woman. >> at the white house lawn trump paused for some show and tell. >> i brought this out for you because this is a map of everything in the red. this was on election night in 2016. >> the president knowledged some 400 troops would remain. >> when i took it over it was a mess. on the bottom it is the exact same. there is no red. in fact there's a tiny spot which will be gone by tonight. >> in this room during president trump's attack on mccain it was almost silent as he went on and on i could see him standing stoically as the president attacked a war hero. we heard so little fro

kara skinnell joins us from washington. if today is the day, what are the next steps? >> that's right, poppy. washington is amped up waiting to see if today is the day. if it is, this is what will happen. robert mueller will give his confidential report to attorney general bill barr. bill barr will notify the house and senate judiciary committees that the report is in and he'll also have to tell them that the department of justice overruled the special counsel. they need to subpoena or charge someone and they disagreed with it. bill barr indicated he'll make a version of the report that he'll ultimately give to congress. the white house indicated they can see the report and make any claims of executive privilege. once that's done the report goes to the hill where it gets interesting. bill barr has not committed during the confirmation hearing he'll make it public. members of the hill said they want the entire report and the house voted unanimously for the public to see the whole report. this is where we are gearing up and heading toward a potential legal battle here. w

this is an on going problem because it's not being reconciled in washington. as i say, both sides of the aisle are culpable. do you think that people in washington really understand and grasp what's going on? in your op ed this week in the dallas morning news, you mentioned you have not been part of the conversation working toward solutions on this issue. why haven't you been able to be at the table? >>. >> that's a good question. el paso is the largest mexican city on the u.s. border. we're at the intersection of chihuahua mexico and texas. we're a region of 2 1/2 million people. if you want to understand the border, you need to come to el paso. we've had a relationship with mexico for almost 400 years. people don't realize until 1841, el paso was on the south side of the rio grande. we have families on both sides, commerce on both sides. six bridges, we're the second largest trading port out of texas for transportation. we have 23,000 legal pedestrians that come north every day. >> that's crucial for your economy it sounds like? >> it is, and the bridges are

themselves and the kind of political warfare in washington. that's the last thing the contenders want to have to do. >> let's talk more about the democratic 2020 contenders and perhaps everyone is waiting on for a final answer. joe biden. michael, your newspaper reports, biden is 95% committed to running according to sources familiar with the discussions. what's stopping him? >>. >> i think the first major hurdle that biden had to get over with is a family hurdle. we're told that's now past, his children, his wife. everyone in the family wants him to run. that was probably the biggest thing he needed to get past. there are still questions. can he raise the kind of money that some of these younger politicians who have tapped into the real motivated and passionate liberal base of the party. they're getting all of these small dollar donors, there's some concern among the people around mr. biden that he'd have to do it the old fashioned way there wouldn't be that same kind of social media fervor. he has to decide whether he thinks that this is the

he did not want to go to washington. he just wanted to be donald trump's personal attorney. >> he said that over and over again in the same line of questioning and testimony before congress. thank you so much. really appreciate it. >>> when it comes to investigations of the president of the united states i think everyone can agree in theory that partisan politics should be set aside. that certainly was the message from congressional republicans when a democratic president was under investigation. with the mueller report coming any day now, is past prologue? what did your trip down memory lane tell you? >> we decided to go back to the video tape t. showed just a little bit of hypocrisy. >> shocking. >> so let me get this to you. there is an old saying in american politics that a democratic crook is just as bad as a republican crook point is we should hold people to the same standard regardless of political party. during michael cohen's testimony we saw republicans attack the witness rather than ask questions about serious

district court in washington, d.c. what do we expect, kara? >> reporter: well, alisyn, in just a couple of hours paul manafort is going to be sentenced, he faces up to ten years in prison on charges of conspiracy to defraud the u.s. and conspiracy to obstruct justice. this is expected to be a very different setting than just last week when manafort was sentenced to 47 months in prison in virginia. today he will be before judge amy berman jackson. she has a very different history with manafort. she put him in jail avenue was charged with witness tampering. she also is the one that said he violated i had cooperation agreement avenue was found to have lied to the special counsel's office and she said he lied while he was on the campaign. this is going to be a much different setting and environment today. the judge is capped by a ten-year statutory maximum and the big question that remains is whatever sentence she decides for paul manafort, will she run them at the same time as the four-year sentence that he received last week or will she stack th

jessica schneider live in washington with more. this was the last thing i am sure that boeing ever wanted to see. >> it turns out boeing won't be front and center at today's senate hearing. instead, senators will be hearing from the acting faaed a mim ed a miner strart r /* /- -- administrator. we seen the on statements from the administrator. he's expected to acknowledge the agent's oversight approach needs to evolve after those fatal crashes involving the boeing 737 max. we also anticipate he will defend that whole certification process, which has been heavily scrutinized for the so-called self certification that boeing is allowed to conduct. no doubt, lawmakers are expected to press the faa on why exactly it waited several days to ground the 737 max planes in the u.s. and the faa should defend that decision, we expect. because the agency said it wasn't seeing any systemic performance issues. so, as all of this is happening in the senate, boeing is inviting 200 pilots and industry stake holders in their facility where they assemb

he'll appear before judge amy berman jackson in federal court in washington, d.c. tomorrow. manafort faces up to ten years in prison for his guilty pleas to charges of conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct justice. judge jackson has proved to be tough on him. she revoked his bail, put him behind bars last june after concluding he tried to coach potential witnesses. and last month jackson said that manafort lied about his communications with konstantin kilimnik, a russian who is a former business associate of manafort's. robert mueller's team says kilimnik is linked to russian intelligence. don't forget that last week a federal judge in virginia stunned the courtroom by sentencing manafort to only 47 months in prison for his conviction of eight financial crimes including tax and bank fraud. prosecutors had recommended a sentence between 19 and 24 years. let's discuss. shimon prokupecz is here, matthew rosenberg, and asha rangappa. good evening to all of you. i'm going to start with you shimon. tomorrow is a big day for manafort and mueller. what can we expect? >> right. so, y

ryan browne is joining us live from washington. good morning, what do we know about this terrible news this morning? >> reporter: we don't know much yet. i spoke to one of the members of the coalition there in kabul and they said that the incident is under investigation. we're being told two u.s. service members were killed during operation. there were no additional details at this time. this is the third and fourth u.s. death in avenue in 2019. and it really underscores that despite talks between the u.s. government and the taliban that have shown some progress, that fighting between the afghan government backed by the u.s. and taliban continues. very violence. the afghans just celebrating their new year and sometimes you see an increase in attacks against government forces, against coalition troops. we're still looking to find out more information about these two deaths. but again, even these talks which the u.s. hopes might bring an end to this war have proven contentious, it has led to hot rhetoric between the u.s. and official

you know, we at the "washington post" we have a pinocchio system. so in many of these claims qualify as four pinocchios or three pinocchios. but, you know, in some cases it's a matter not what quite what i would call a lie but something where the context is completely missing. and so therefore it leaves a misleading impression in the listeners' ears. >> that's interesting but it makes your job harder the fact you have a continuum. so how do you figure -- so basically you have the different pinocchio system and how do you go about categorizing it as a falsehood? what's your process? where do you start by figuring out if it's false or if he's just using different statistics than, say, the average person? >> well, i mean, we wouldn't be different statistics. we would include it if it's statistics that he does in a misleading way. so, for instance, when he talks about the number of jobs created in his administration, he counts from the date of the election, not from the date he took office. so that adds, you know, four months of jobs that took place und

attorney's office in washington as well as the special counsel. i would be surprised if any investigation -- any indictment issues after mueller. it's about issuing indictments. finishing up the sentencing of michael flynn or the resolution of the cases against the russian entities to the extent anyone can be found to be prosecuted, those will be turned over to u.s. attorney offices. >> there are ongoing investigations that are being overseen by the southern district of new york, one of which involves the president's inaugural committee and alleged pay to play scheme in which wealthy donors were essentially seeking to buy access to the incoming administration. when michael cohen testified publically on capitol hill, he was directly asked if the president was perhaps himself involved in any other illegal activity. he said, yes. he answered in the affirmative. he said he could not get into the particulars because those allegations are the subject of ongoing investigations. >> stick around. there's a lot more we need to discuss. new developments emer

>> i do think that's possible. >> we begin today with the question from washington. might this friday be different from other fridays? pundits have pegged today as the day when robert mueller will give his report. the president says he's just as clueless as the rest of us. >> i have no clue about the mueller report. it will be interesting. we'll see what happens. there was no collusion, there was no obstruction, everybody knows it. it's all a big hoax. that's why i call it the witch hunt. it's all a big hoax. we'll see what happens. i know that the attorney general highly respected ultimately will make a decision. >> robert mueller has been on the job for 675 days, and the president has raised hell about what he considers unfair treatment since day one, calling mueller's investigation a witch hunt starting on day two. the constant complaints have always been about politics. and today , in that respect, no different. >> i have a man who is a deputy who i don't know, who i didn't know at all, and he appoints a man who had just left my office. i didn't give him the job

i'm jim sciutto in washington. there is breaking news about a plane flown right here in the u.s. and around the world, possibly flown by you this week, pressure building on airlines here in the u.s. to ground this boeing 737 max 8 aircraft after a second deadly crash in just five months. some airlines have grounded the jet. yesterday 157 people on board an ethiopian airlines flight that included eight americans died when the plane crashed shortly just minutes after takeoffism einvestigators are scouring the debris for clues. we will go to david mckenzie. we have him on the scene to see about the discovery of the black boxes. pressing question right now is will the faa take the step to ground the plane here in the u.s.? experts on cnn making it clear what they would do. have a listen. >> i think the prudent thing to do is to ground these aircraft. now that they have discovered the black boxes, we should have an insight into what happened fairly quickly and fast action should be taken. >> grounding the planes for the week until people can know what is going on frankly i think boein

i'm jim sciutto in washington. >> i'm poppy harlow in new york. so much grief, death seemingly fuelled by so much hate allegedly on the part of one man. at least 49 people are dead. 20 others seriously hurt after brazen attacks during friday prayer at two mosques in christchurch. officials and survivors say a gunman fired on everything that moved. taking care to hits a many victims as possible and to livestream it all. the video as he went. he apparently posted a venomous manifesto. >> let's call it what it is right away. it is terrorism driven by hate and bigotry. four people are being held by police, only one so far charged with murder. authorities are sorting out the involvement of the others if any were involved. surviving the attacks meant escaping as in the case of mahmoud hassir. >> first we hid in the cars and under the cars. we saw the fighting was still on. we tried to jump the fence. then we hide next house to the mosque on this side. fighting was on and on, you know. >> we have extensive coverage this hour beginning with clarissa ward.

you pointed out he's going to sentenced in washington, d.c. next week for witness tampering and conspiracy. but with this judge he could spend up to 25 years in prison, john. >> former prosecutor shan wu is al also a former business partner of paul manafort. read all the documents, there's no collusion. manafort may have done some bad things. put this in perspective here. >> paul manafort is not arguing for a pardon. they are focusing on ellis. i think what his legal team is doing makes a lot of sense. they've made this proportionality argument, and what that means is compared to other people kind of like him, similar crimes, similar lack of criminal history, the sentencing guidelines range seems disproportional to him. so they're saying because of that, judge, you ought to go underneath those guidelines, and they're hoping to get something probably single digits. >> as they made their argument for that, they said he suffers from severe anxiety, panic attacks and a severe case of kla claustrophobia. is that a case for a judge to say, okay, i w

cnn applicants editor chris cillizza joins us now from washington. i guess we knew this might happen, huh? >> this is in some ways nothing new under the sun, erica. when congress or at least a chamber of commerce is controlled by one party, the white house controlled by another, there's a lot of this back and forth. let's put numbers to it. okay. these are numbers from our cnn's own lauren fox's reporting. these are democratic numbers, worth noting. we've already had six refusals to appear in the trump administration so far this year. not uncommon, but does matter in that, appearing before committees is a way that you conduct oversight. we saw it today, by the way. dhs secretary kirstjen nielsen appears in front of a committee, gets questions asked, sometime hard question. a lot of what congress does in terms of oversight and accountability is, what's the paper trail on this? how did we get to the point we're at? you saw this with betty thompson the chairman of the homeland security committee with nielsen saying we've made a lot of these requests for

that's new reporting tonight in the "washington post." in a moment i'll speak to the reporter who had the details. first let's just point out that this all goes to something michael cohen said in testimony last week, that the president was determined people not see his academic records. >> i am providing the committee today with several documents. copies of letters i wrote at mr. trump's direction that threatened his high school, colleges, and the college board not to release his grades or s.a.t. scores. >> well, joining me tonight is "washington post" reporter mark fisher. >> mark, can you just explain exactly how president trump's high school records were buried? >> yeah. this is going back to 2011, when trump was considering running for president in 2012 and he was out there attacking president obama, saying tea should release his academic records and that he was a poor student. and immediately after that, within hours really, after trump made that statement the top officials at the new york military academy where trump had gone to sch
