a lot of ink has been spilled on the pomp and circumstance of trump donald trump's summits in the ongoing love affair he claims with kim jong-un but what is actually been the result of nearly three years of trump's north korean diplomacy besides stroking his ego? the answer is, nothing. kim continues to fire missiles into the sea of japan, he continues to quietly move up his nuclear stockpile even though freeze on nuclear long-range missile test is temporary and the north koreans are warning they might resume that at the end of the year. meanwhile, we abandoned the south koreans we canceled our joint military exercises we nearly withdrew our troops entirely, kim got international recognition and essentially a free pass to keep building his arsenal in making it more deadly while we weakened all of our regional alliances. america and the world are dramatically less safe right now. all over the world in fact, dictators and would-be dictators are making up stunning records of human rights abuses right now because they know under president trump america will really raise no issue. no protest.

your crew had the me first approach to trump that trump has. republican senators and members of congress also have a me-first approach, and they worry about breaking with trump and what that is going to do for them with their base in a primary. until republican primary voters turn against trump, it is going to be very, very dangerous no matter what they privately think, no matter how much they might privately grouse about trump in syria or trump giving himself a big contract or trump in ukraine, no matter how much they complain about that in private, they're not going to break with him in public until it becomes politically safe for them to do that. >> i wonder what sort of precedent they're sending, peter, about what they will accept going forward. mitch mcconnell in "the washington post" had a scathing op-ed against the president's decision to withdraw from syria. he called it a grave administration and will leave the people less safe, embolden our enemies and weaken important allies. i guess where do they go from here? >> well, i think they'

it's called trump towers. >> reporter: the truth is, donald trump doesn't own trump towers istanbul, he owns a licensing deal. in 2008, a major turkish developer agreed to pay trump in a multimillion dollar deal to use his name to build two towers, a residential and an office building, along with a shopping mall underneath. trump's daughter ivanka helped with design, picking out the finishes, as trump said at the opening in 2012. trump towers istanbul is not owned, developed, or sold by the trump organization or any of their current or former principals or affiliates. it is a trump property in name only, and that name continues to pay him. during the presidential campaign, financial disclosures by the trump campaign stated income from trump istanbul between $1 million and $5 million. last year the president's financial disclosure brought that figure down to $100,000 to $1 million. a source familiar with trump's business telling cnn the fee fluctuates on condominium sales and the strength of the turkish economy. and despite trump telling turkish reporters in 2012 that he was looking t

the trump white house, president trump himself and, we are increasingly learning, members of the trump administration are trying to query that or trying to muddy that or trying to essentially undo that declaration by the u.s. government that russia attacked our election to try to benefit trump. that's part of what's going on by this effort by attorney general bill barr. bill barr and the president contacting world leaders to get them to participate in a justice department inquiry that the white house is hoping might essentially exonerate russia for the 2016 election attack. it would undermine the u.s. intelligence community's conclusion that russia carried out that attack. yesterday we got that stunning report from "the washington post" that attorney general bill barr is handling this personally. that's how independent this is from the president's appointees, right? the president's hand-picked attorney general is personally traveling the globe, trying to get foreign governments to give him help in this inquiry into the origins of the russia investigation which the white house hopes wil
