governor republican mike huckabee offered his take on the healthcare debate earlier today. >> you can't make this better. it won't get better. it is only going to get worse. i think it is time to start over. the best way to start over, pass this whole issue to the 50 states with medicaid block grants and the freedom to let people pick their own healthcare and not try to create a federal program where one size fits all. that's their mistake. >> peter doocy has been following the president today who is joining us live from new jersey right near the president's golf estate. first of all, republican leaders in congress, what are they trying to do to try and get this whole thing back on track? >> good question, eric. because all that we can see today are further disagreements about the way forward. the senate majority leader mcconnell who returned to kentucky and let all of his members return back to their home state, without leaving behind a passable replacement for the affordable care act, and who used to say that all he needed to repeal obama care was a republican president is now t

retraction word for word. mike huckabee says you can't trust anything. you have to state it's off the record. he shared this earlier. >> there is no such thing as off the record, not in politics. every morning you wake up you need to look in the mirror and say to yourself the press is not my friend. the press is not my friend. keep repeating it no matter how nice they may be to you. >> bill: he made the mistake by not saying it was off the record. >> no question it was a mistake but i have gotten dozens of calls from republicans and democrats over the years, anchors who have unloaded in sometimes salty language, scaramucci-type language with the understanding that they are talking to me off the record and i'm not going to publish it and i'll say are we saying this for the record? how are we talking here? what has been overlooked in all this. it wasn't an interview it was venting. what has been overlooked is scaramucci is doing what the president wants. unlike spicer and priebus. he has donald trump's confidence. when he attacked reince priebus no one pushed back. for all the -- >> bil

press. >> kimberly: here with common sense and reaction here is former arkansas governor mike huckabee. great to have you on the program. looking forward to talking to you about this. when this happened this weekend, cnn, the rest of the liberal media started, in my opinion, overreacting to the tweet. what do you think? >> the amazing thing is, this is a news media that told us the shakespeare in the park where donald trump was murdered on stage, that that was just theater but somehow pro wrestling is so real they are afraid of it. this is amazing. most of the wounds the press think they are experiencing are self-inflicted. i don't know of anyone who is calling for anybody in the press to be hurt. quite frankly, i don't know of anyone who wants to hurt the press. they want to laugh at them because they hold him in contempt. what's happened is a sense that the press no longer practices journalism. they practice a very targeted, hateful attempt to destroy the legitimacy of donald trump's presidency. people in america at least be on the coast, they are not stupid. they figure this out. they are

on. let's bring in former republican presidential candidate, he is former governor mike huckabee. good to see you, governor. >> liz, great to be here. thank you. . liz: do you think the general is coming along at the right time? >> i absolutely do. there are has been some confusion as to what the chain of command was in the white house. i don't think there's any confusion anymore. and i think the general brings an extraordinary level of professional experience. he brings discipline and focus and a clear sense of mission. he understands what it's like to be under pressure because you don't get under more intense pressure than combat. so there's nothing in that white house that is going to shake him. nothing is going to cause him to get all sweaty about it. he knows how to manage people. he knows how to bring good people in. he knows how to let folks go. that's what a good chief of staff is all about. liz: now, governor, your daughter press secretary sarah huckabee sanders says that the president felt that anthony scaramucci's comments were quote inappropriate. that essentially the presi

putin friday as the g20 summit. bring in former governor mike huckabee. good to see you, governor? >> good afternoon, how you doing, liz. liz: and happy 4th. the president's meeting with vladimir putin looks like the first formal conversation between putin and a u.s. president in nearly two years. okay, so is president trump more worried about the media attacking him over appearing cozy with putin or getting scolded things over climate change by germany's angela merkel, what do you think he's worried about? >> neither one of them. donald trump isn't a man that is easily rattled. fascinating meeting between putin and the president. i wish i could be there to watch it. though i don't expect there to be a lot of substantive conversation in that initial encounter. i think it's going to be two alpha males, sizing each other up, i think the body language is far more important to watch than anything that either of them say, but this is going to be an interesting contrast between donald trump, who's like the muhammad ali, who looks like to use a lot of hyperbole, goes into the ring with b

contributor mike huckabee joins me. governor, good to have you back. good to see you. is there anything different or anything special about these particular protests happening now in germany as we watch these pictures come in? >> probably not, trish. most of these protesters are part of what security officials openly call rent a mob. these are people who literally travel the world. they've been to see more of the globe than most of us ever will. but the question is who finances these people? but they're the same people. i had a security people tell me at a republican convention. these are the same folks. same people. same faces, and they show up all over the world. this is not unusual, and the only thing we can hope is that there's a good security force in place to keep them from really disrupting the meetings. trish: i was mentioning when i was at g8 there in germany, i was caught up in some of those protests as i was reporting on it. but none of it became so bad that it was out of hand. and to your point in some ways, it looks rather streamlined in that people are professional protest

, former arkansas governor mike huckabee. governor, would you, a heck of a blow against your daughter. with would your response be to cnn about this? >> i thought it was amazing cnn is talking about truth and honesty. getting advice about truth from cnn is kind of like getting recipes for the 4th of july from hannibal lecter, come on. they're the champions of fake news and fraudulent news. they're constantly reporting stuff turns out to be untrue, including jake tapper had to go back and admit the big thing he held up from, rather "the national enquirer" didn't exist t was totally fake. the attacks on my daughter point you out the hypocrisy here. what did they do? they attacked a woman, my daughter, for doing her job. now why did donald trump send the tweet out in the first place. because he was attacked by a woman, namely one of the hosts what i called bsnbc. who was calling him mentally deranged. calling him unfit for office. and her partner was saying that he was a shmuck, a goon, a thug. this is just, but, if there is any perspective in all of this, the reason i'm not all that ups

editorial. with us former arkansas governor mike huckabee. welcome back to the program. what do you think about general kelly bringing discipline and one voice to the white house. is the president going to listen? >> i think he will because he has got someone who in essence a peer. somebody on the same level. has been ceo of something really, really big. in this case a military operation. battlefield command. all of these are great qualities. a person like general kelly is truly tested. he doesn't care whether people like him or not. he has taken people combat. he has been in the position where he knows that the decision he makes and the way he leads, in his case, had a choice of whether people lived or died. now nobody will live or die what he does as chief of staff per se, but i think it's a good choice, a solid choice, the president is wise to pick him. stuart: does he have some diplomatic skills? because he is going to have to be a bit diplomatic when it comes to dealing with members of congress. these are politicians. he is a military guy. the president is a business guy. a hug

it's all broken. former governor mike huckabee will join us next. russia would engage as strategic partner with us. if we can't get them engage, it would have to go military. i think what the president said it's true. you can't go out and take missile site and you have to get the plants where they're enriching uranium and everything they are doing. it would be a very severe and invasive military operation and hopefully russia and china can help us avoid. when you have something you love, you want to protect it. at legalzoom, our network of attorneys can help you every step of the way. with an estate plan including wills or a living trust that grows along with you and your family. legalzoom. legal help is here. charles: let's check on crude oil bouncing back after worst loss in a month. now this, in an interview, new interview democratic governor of virginia terry mccollough was unable to name a leader of the democratic party. >> who is the leader of the democratic right now? >> i think there are many leaders, governors need to lead the wait a minute i complement the folks in capito
