[Blitzer:] All right. We're continue to follow the breaking news. Major developments unfolding in the confirmation process of Judge Kavanaugh. But very quickly, there's another development over the weekend, Max, the president said this about Kim Jong-Un of North Korea.
[Trump:] And you know, what's interesting. When I did it and I was really being tough, and so was he, and we were going back and forth. And then we fell in love, OK?
[Blitzer:] "We fell in love." He fell in love with Kim Jong-Un.
[Boot:] Wow. The love that dare not speak its name. I mean, this is crazy. I recall what Donald Trump himself said about North Korea just in January of this year, in his State of the Union, where he said, no regime has oppressed its own citizens more totally or brutally than the cruel dictatorship in North Korea. And he introduced the parents of Otto Warmbier, the American student, who was killed in North Korea. This is the same regime. It hasn't changed one iota since January. This is the same murderous thug that he was rightly denouncing in February, and now he's in love with I mean, literally in love with. This is crazy. I can't imagine any former American president saying anything remotely like this, and if he had, Republicans would have gone crazy, and rightly so. This is just so I mean, I don't know what to say beyond the fact that it's crazy, deranged, and makes no sense.
[Lizza:] One of the important things that a president needs to do is be realistic and honest about the threats that the United States faces in the world, right? Not to overhype them, not to under hype them. But his entire view of threats is based on his personal relationship with the leader. And it's bizarre, to say the least.
[Blitzer:] To say the least. And, Nia [sic], very quickly, all of a sudden, the Democrats on the Judiciary Committee want 24 additional interviews 24 interviews to be conducted by the FBI this week in connection with the Kavanaugh confirmation.
[Coates:] And a lot of these people on the list are people that came from the testimony of Brett Kavanaugh, through interviews on different media networks, saying that they knew Brett Kavanaugh at that time, that he had belied this impression of himself by talking about this stoic or this altar boy. Leslie Brooks is on the list, of people who talked about. She came on Chris Cuomo's show a couple of days ago, talking about how this was a real injustice in a way, talking about his alcohol record, et cetera. So the list of people are derived from his own statements, proving again, whatever you do or say in a court of law can be used against you.
[Blitzer:] Everyone, stick around. We'll continue to follow the breaking news. Judge Brett Kavanaugh also under fire for what some are calling lies regarding his past drinking habits in high school and college. And yearbook entries. How the president of the United States is responding. That, and a lot more, right after this.
