For the most part Matt Lauer was relentlessly trying to bait President George W. Bush into criticism of President Trump.   For the most part Lauer failed.
However, it would be intellectually dishonest not to notice that Dubya stayed quiet when faced with an administration he agrees with (Obama), and pokes his head up when there’s an administration he disagrees with (Trump).   UniParty Rules.

I ask [Nigel Farage] what it is like to come to the United States and have the President ask you to dinner. Farage says:

This is a Sunday discussion that’s more important than the traditional Sunday “blather”.  Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin appears on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartriomo to discuss President Trump economics.
Rejoice all ye econ and political geeks. Massive amounts of wholesome insight within the interview as Secretary Mnuchin discusses the budget, budgetary priorities, and yes, budgetary “goals” to include entitlement priority retention.   Mnuchin also discusses regulatory reform, financial reform the federal reserve.

What remains is execution of a plan.
