DONALD TRUMP (R), PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: After three years of lies and smears and slander, the Russia hoax is dead.

[05:59:35] REP. NANCY PELOSI (D-CA), SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE: Show us the report. We don't need you interpreting for us.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There is obvious evidence in plain sight of collusion and obstruction.

TRUMP: Obamacare has been an absolute disaster. We're working on a plan.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: They have said "repeal and replace" for a decade. They have never had a plan.

JOHN KASICH (R), FORMER OHIO GOVERNOR: Republicans are very nervous. It's not a winning issue.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

ANNOUNCER: This is NEW DAY with Alisyn Camerota and John Berman.

ALISYN CAMEROTA, CNN ANCHOR: We want to welcome our viewers in the United States and around the world. This is NEW DAY. It is Friday.

JOHN BERMAN, CNN ANCHOR: Naughty language Friday.

CAMEROTA: No, we're not going to say naughty language today --

BERMAN: Very naughty language Friday.

CAMEROTA: -- if we can avoid it. It's March 29, 6 a.m. here in New York.

President Trump, on the other hand, taking a victory lap in his first campaign rally since the Mueller investigation ended. The president again falsely claimed, quote, "total exoneration." Mr. Trump also warned the investigators behind the Russia probe that they would be held, quote, "accountable."

He used crude language and name calling, and he blasted Democrats who continue to investigate any wrongdoing around him.

And the calls continue for the Mueller report to be -- the full Mueller report to be made public. CNN has learned that the Mueller report is more than 300 pages long. What will those pages reveal?

BERMAN: What kind of crude language?

CAMEROTA: I'm not saying. You're not going to get me to say it this morning over breakfast.

BERMAN: So the president did use crude, naughty language at the rally. And there's little doubt he understands those words.

But there are growing questions about whether he understands the words he's using in the healthcare debate. His administration has moved to eliminate Obamacare, all of it, which would impact millions of Americans with preexisting conditions.

And overnight the president used that word, "preexisting conditions," which is really two words. He said he would predict -- he would protect people who have preexisting conditions. But as far as we can tell, he has never explained how.

And plans he has endorsed in the past would allow potentially huge increases in premiums for people with preexisting conditions. And new overnight, a federal court blocked a different move by the administration to get around standards put in place by Obamacare.

Let's begin with CNN's Boris Sanchez, live at the naughty White House -- Boris.

BORIS SANCHEZ, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Not so naughty this morning, John. President Trump was in a celebratory mood last night feeling vindicated at his first rally since Robert Mueller finished his work. But we still don't know exactly what is in Mueller's report, and there's no clarity on when we may actually see it.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

TRUMP: The collusion delusion is over.

SANCHEZ (voice-over): President Trump triumphant about the end of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, mocking his critics and falsely claiming that the report completely clears him of wrongdoing.

TRUMP: Total exoneration. Complete vindication.

SANCHEZ: The president basing this claim on Attorney General William Barr's four-page summary of Mueller's 22-month-long probe, which found no evidence of conspiracy with Russia, but did not exonerate him on obstruction of justice.

Sources tell CNN that Mueller's report is more than 300 pages long, bolstering Democrats' demand to see the full findings. PELOSI: Show us the report, and we can draw our own conclusions. We

don't need you interpreting for us. It was condescending, it was arrogant, and it wasn't the right thing to do.

SANCHEZ: President Trump slamming Democrats for their ongoing investigation into his administration.

TRUMP: The Democrats have to now decide whether they will continue defrauding the public with ridiculous bull-(EXPLETIVE DELETED).

SANCHEZ: And ridiculing House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, who's standing by his claim that there is evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

TRUMP: Little pencil-neck Adam Schiff.

SANCHEZ: The president piling on after Republicans on the Intelligence Committee wrote a letter calling on Schiff to resign.

REP. MIKE CONAWAY (R-TX), HOUSE INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE: Your actions, both past and president, are incompatible with your duty as chairman of this committee. We have no faith in your ability to discharge your duties.

SANCHEZ: Schiff refusing to step down, laying out facts that are already public about the Russia probe.

REP. ADAM SCHIFF (D-CA), CHAIRMAN, INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE: You might think that it's OK that the president's son-in-law sought to establish a secret back channel of communications with the Russians through a Russia diplomatic facility. I don't think that's OK. I think it's immoral. I think it's unethical. I think it's unpatriotic, and, yes, I think it's corrupt. And evidence of collusion.

SANCHEZ: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi defending Schiff.

PELOSI: What is the president afraid of? Is he afraid of the truth? That he would go after a member, a chairman of a committee? I think they're just scaredy-cats.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

SANCHEZ: During his speech, President Trump also touted his efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare, but the administration has really not provided any specifics on the repeal end of that. President Trump, of course, is spending his weekend at Mar-a-Lago. It's a pretty easy day ahead for him as he takes a tour of Lake Okeechobee in Florida -- Alisyn.

CAMEROTA: OK, Boris. Thank you very much for setting all of that up for us.

Joining us now is CNN senior political analyst John Avlon.

John, do you think that the president and Bill Barr, the attorney general, have done a successful job of convincing many Americans, certainly Republicans, that the Mueller report is over when, in fact, there are 300 pages yet to come that no one has seen.

[06:05:09] JOHN AVLON, CNN SENIOR POLITICAL ANALYST: I think the president really understands news cycles, media spin. And the presentation of the Barr memo has been designed to drive the conversation over a period of weeks.

It has worked with Republicans. There are no signs it's worked with the overwhelming number of the American people, because, as you point out, in that four-page memo, you had two sentences directly taken from the Mueller report out of 300 pages, we know now. Three hundred pages. I'm guessing there's a little bit more information. I don't think it will contradict the top line findings, but there's going to be a lot more detail to sift through, as we all should.

CAMEROTA: I want to play a portion of the president's rally last night in Michigan, because I think it is very instructive to hear the way in which he tries to convince people of his message. It's almost hypnotic. Listen to this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: Remember this, because it's very important. And I'm speaking now for the Republican Party. We will always protect patients with preexisting conditions. Always. Always.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CAMEROTA: "Remember this, because it's very important." Don't believe anything else you hear.

AVLON: Don't believe what you hear. Don't believe what -- only believe what I say.

The president is wrong. He's trying to convince his base that he is telling the truth. He is not. The administration's Justice Department is right now taking action, backing -- switching its position in a court case to take out all of Obamacare, including preexisting conditions. And they admit they don't have a plan to replace it.

CAMEROTA: They say that, by the time the court case goes into effect, they will have a plan.

AVLON: That sounds very comforting. "This particular air sandwich I'm giving you right here, it will be very satisfying."

Look, the president has committed to this. The president is -- the administration's own actions contradict it. Do you believe what he says or do you believe what they do?

CAMEROTA: Or do you believe your own lying eyes?

AVLON: Correct.

CAMEROTA: OK. So back to Adam Schiff. You heard him there, a portion of him confronting, I mean, directly, his Republican colleagues who are calling for his resignation. We have a little bit more of it. So watch this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

SCHIFF: My colleagues may think it's OK that the Russians offered dirt on a Democratic candidate for president as part of what was described as the Russian government's effort to help the Trump campaign.

But I don't think it's OK. I think it's immoral. I think it's unethical. I think it's unpatriotic. And, yes, I think it's corrupt. And evidence of collusion.

But I do not think that conduct, criminal or not, is OK. And the day we do think that's OK is the day we will look back and say that is the day America lost its way.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CAMEROTA: What's going to happen to Congressman Schiff and -- as the chair. When your Republican colleagues call for you to resign, then what happens?

AVLON: Look, they are raising the issue. They can try all sorts of maneuvers. At the end of the day, demanding that Schiff resign is like demanding a pony. It's not going to particularly happen.

That said, Schiff, I think, is making a mistake by continuing to try to hang his hat on the word "collusion." I do think, from the top line of the Barr memo, that's been taken off the table.

Now, there's still plenty to investigate. And part of what Trump and Co. are trying to do is say that any other investigations, any other court cases, whatever they find is irrelevant because of the top line Barr memo. That's not true.

But by continuing to hammer away at the word "collusion," I don't think Schiff is doing himself any favors. And probably, there's some Democrats wishing he'd move on from that.

CAMEROTA: John Avlon, thank you very much for the analysis -- John.

BERMAN: All right. Big breaking news in the Boeing investigation.

According to the "Wall Street Journal," preliminary findings reveal the cause of the Ethiopia -- Ethiopia Airlines crash was, in fact, the same issue that likely took down the Lion Air flight last October. And this is a big deal, because it indicates a systemic issue with the 737 Max 8 plane. It has all to do with the stall prevention feature.

CNN's Robyn Kriel live in Ethiopia with the breaking details -- Robin.

ROBYN KRIEL, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Well, the stall prevention feature called the MCAS, that's of course, what everyone is talking about, this very technical MCAS system, an automated system, intended to make the 737 Max 8 avoid stalling. So if this, in some way, malfunctions, and it senses a stall that

perhaps wasn't already happening, then it would have made the plane's nose tip down, and the pilots would have been left fighting this feature without necessarily knowing what was causing it.

We sat down with several people, experts close to this investigation, who tell us that the MCAS, that this mechanism, this feature is not actually part of the quick reference handbook, which is the handbook, the Bible, really, of pilots and crew members. So if it's not in that quick reference handbook, then in case of an emergency, they cannot see what the problem is.

[06:10:17] And of course, Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, John, taking off, crashing six minutes south of Addis Ababa after takeoff, so that would definitely indicate that they did not have very much time at all to figure out what was the problem.

Now, as you said, this is a preliminary finding, according to "The Wall Street Journal." Normally, reports take up to a year. So still a lot of more investigation, a lot more to come out.

But the human toll, John, 157 lives lost here in Ethiopia. Ethiopians, Americans, British, French, people from 35 different countries. And some family members still here, trying to gather the remains of their loved ones to take them back to their home countries; and they say it might take up to six months for DNA identification -- Alisyn.

CAMEROTA: Roby, thank you very much for the update from Ethiopia.

Well, President Trump reversing his administration's position on cutting funds for the Special Olympics. This is after his education secretary, Betsy DeVos, defended the cuts in three days of testimony before lawmakers.

CNN's Lauren Fox is live open Capitol Hill with more of this embarrassing mess -- Lauren.

LAUREN FOX, CNN CORRESPONDENT: That's right. It was a tumultuous week for Betsy DeVos up on Capitol Hill as she went before both the House and Senate committees, defending this $18 million cut to the Special Olympics.

Then last night, the president just reverses course. Here's what he said.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: I've been to the Special Olympics. I think it's incredible, and I just authorized a funding. I heard about it this morning. I have overridden my people. We're funding the Special Olympics.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

FOX: And that's not exactly how the budget process works, Alisyn, but Betsy DeVos had her own statement responding to the president afterward. She said, quote, "I am pleased and grateful that the president and I see eye-to-eye on this issue and that he has decided to fund our Special Olympics grant. This is funding I have fought for behind the scenes over the last several years."

But, of course, that's not what we saw on Capitol Hill, as she was being grilled by lawmakers all week this week. You know, my colleague, Ryan Nobles, caught up with her yesterday; and she was standing, waiting for a notoriously slow elevator on Capitol Hill. He's peppering her with questions, trying to get answers. Here's what happened.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

RYAN NOBLES, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Madam Secretary, you said today that you were not the person that proposed this funding change. Can you explain who in your administration did? Madam Secretary, have you spoken to the president about this at all? If there's some misunderstanding, Madam Secretary, this is the opportunity to explain it to us.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

FOX: And we should say, you know, the president's budget is a statement of policy priorities. We never expected it to be passed on Capitol Hill. We never expected it to be law.

But it just shows you how special the Special Olympics are to so many people up here on Capitol Hill, that they were defended -- those cuts were, you know, attacked by both Republicans and Democrats; and the president ultimately had to reverse course -- John.

BERMAN: That's right. And the important thing here is they're trying to trick you into thinking they were not supporting these cuts. This was the Trump administration budget proposal, the third year running --

FOX: That's right.

BERMAN: -- that they wanted to cut funding for the Special Olympics. And the president now is disavowing it after receiving that criticism. Lauren Fox on Capitol Hill, thanks very much.

The city of Chicago is now demanding that Jussie Smollett pay $130,000 to cover the cost of investigating what they say was a staged hate crime.

Our Ryan Young live in Chicago with this morning's latest on this story -- Ryan.

RYAN YOUNG, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Yes, John, which way will this story turn next? You never know.

It seems like everyone's sort of pointing fingers at each other. Last night on Don Lemon's show, Gloria Schmidt, who's the lawyer for the two brothers, the Osundairo brothers, actually had some new information. She said this was a hoax the entire time, and she actually called the Smollett's camp claim of white face that they kind of floated yesterday, that maybe the two men had painted their face white during the attack, was an outward lie.

So now you have that sort of assertion going on.

And then you have the president and the mayor of Chicago kind of going back and forth yesterday about this, with the mayor basically saying, "Hey, sit on the sidelines of this one."

All in all, though, they want Jussie Smollett to pay the city back for all the work the 12 detectives did around the clock to try to figure this case out. In fact, listen to some of the rounds of sound from yesterday in terms of this back and forth about who should pay next.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

MAYOR RAHM EMANUEL, CHICAGO: Given that he doesn't feel any sense of contrition and remorse, my recommendation is, when he writes the check, in the memo section he can put the word, "I'm accountable for the hoax."

TRUMP: He said he was attacked by MAGA country. You ever hear that one? MAGA country. Maybe the only time I've ever agreed with the mayor of Chicago.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

[06:15:14] YOUNG: Yes, and the Illinois Prosecutors Bar Association actually put out a statement which, in part, reads over the past few days regarding the Cook County state attorney's handling of the Jussie Smollett case, they don't condone any part of this. They actually thought it was not as ethical as they thought it should be.

So look, now you have someone else weighing in, Alisyn, to all of this; and we're told there will be a protest out in front of the courthouse by police officers on Monday. So this is just not over just yet.

CAMEROTA: Ryan, you're doing great reporting, but somehow, we get more confused every day. It is so confusing what's --

YOUNG: It's going to --

CAMEROTA: -- yes, what's happening here. But thank you. We will check back with you throughout the program.

Well, in one of the more telling comments we have heard, President Trump says he knows a lot about wind. The breaking wind news next.

BERMAN: I told you it would work.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

BERMAN: All right. Breaking math news this morning.

CAMEROTA: There's a lot of breaking news. BERMAN: The Mueller report is more than 300 pages. The Barr summary

is four pages.

Want to bring back John Avlon. Also joining us, Margaret Talev and Elie Honig.

CAMEROTA: Those are fractions.

BERMAN: Elie, you among us went to law school. Tell us what the difference between 300 and 4 is.

ELIE HONIG, CNN LEGAL ANALYST: So I can do a little math. I think that's about 1 percent, a little over 1 percent.

[06:20:03] I mean, people have been calling William Barr's letter a Cliff's Notes version of the Mueller report. I think that's actually a little unfair to Cliff's Notes. I mean, if you remember Cliff's Notes from high school, they're, what, one-third or one half of the actual book.

I think William Barr went way outside his lane here, legally and politically, as well. If you look at the regulations and the whole point of the special counsel setup, it's to take the political chain of command out of it. It's to take an investigation, send it to somebody who is not appointed by the president, does not report to the president, Robert Mueller, let him make the key decisions. And the regulations say prosecution and declination decisions are to be made by the special counsel.

Now, we know he declined on what people have called collusion. We know he said it's a very close call on obstruction. And I think the best reading of that is he intended to send that to the one body that can do something about it, which is Congress. He can't indict; only Congress can impeach.

Barr then, I think, stepped out, intercepted it, put his own spin on it; and now he's sitting on it. And I think the longer he sits on it, the pressure's just going to build.

BERMAN: Three hundred is a lot of pages. Not as much as the Starr report, but it's a lot of pages.

HONIG: People don't like that feeling. I know, from when you try a case with a jury, if they feel like you're keeping something from them, they will rebel on you. And I think that lessen holds true for the public in general. The longer he sits on this, the more people -- the political pressure is going to build.

AVLON: Just as a practical matter, what's stunning is that it took him 48 hours to make an incredibly impactful decision about not pursuing obstruction, when that was left open by Mueller. But the sort of necessary redaction of the 300-page document is taking exponentially longer. And that's why people are asking, rightly, questions; and those questions won't be answered until the report is \ released.

CAMEROTA: Margaret, we are going to see the report, yes?

MARGARET TALEV, CNN POLITICAL ANALYST: Well, yes, I think we think we're going to see a lot of it, but President Trump is doing, in his own fashion, what most any president would do, which is taking the time in between then and now to maximize his ability to re-define or to define what this found.

And I say the way his own special imprint on it. Because indeed, any president would be trying to take advantage of that moment in time, but he's really doubling down. And you see it with this sort of coordinated effort with House Republicans to try to force Adam Schiff to resign, all of the sort of stuff, is that he knows he has a limited amount of time.

And if he can completely exhaust people about this topic or get his own kind of version of what the report says stuck before the actual release details come out, he may have a chance to minimize the impact of the political --

CAMEROTA: Fallout, sure.

TALEV: -- findings of the report.

BERMAN: Look, we don't know what we're going to see. We just don't. We don't know how much he will redact. We don't know if he will summarize. He hasn't ruled out doing either of those things. So until we see it, we just don't know. And until we see it we won't know what went behind it, so we will reserve judgment on that.

CAMEROTA: Yes, we are.

BERMAN: In the subject of what is not known, let's talk about healthcare and what is not known about what the president thinks about parts of the healthcare plan. He continues to say, as last night you played the sound with John Avlon a little earlier, that he is in favor of great healthcare. He's going to deliver on healthcare, and he always, always, always will protect people with preexisting conditions.

But we don't know how. We don't know how he intends do that. And I submit that he has never once given us any statement that he understands the intricacies of the healthcare system and protecting people with preexisting conditions. He just never said anything on that, John.

AVLON: No. Look, before he ran for president, early days of the campaign, he would offer this expansive vision of healthcare; and now his administration is pursuing a very extreme anti-Obamacare line.

Clearly, the animus against Obamacare is the run-through. Because, of course, the ACA was originally a Republican-proposed plan. Let's not forget that.

But now the administration is all in, in trying to remove the preexisting conditions, after Republicans campaigned on it and the president continues to promise that he's for it, against the evidence of his administration's actions. That, you know -- they can say they're going to propose a plan, but they've had almost a decade do it as a party.

So the president would seem to be lying to his base.

CAMEROTA: Margaret, I think what's really interesting is hearing how Majority Leader McConnell is trying to deal with this, because this has now been tossed into his lap. He doesn't want this hot potato.

And so he said to Politico, "I look forward to seeing what the president is proposing and what he can work out with the speaker."

I think that's so interesting, because generally -- you tell me if this is a wrong supposition -- doesn't Mitch McConnell generally get in line with what the president wants, be it a border wall or whatever? Generally at some point he falls in line with the president's agenda, but not today he's not.

TALEV: Typically, what you would see or hear from Leader McConnell at this point is nothing, because those conversations would be going on behind the scenes. And he knows it's less effective to negotiate behind the scenes when you have public signaling.

So when you see this kind of public signaling, it's him telling the White House, "Cut it out, guys. We don't really think this is good for us."

And you are seeing some Senate Republicans -- like I talked to Lindsey Graham yesterday -- sort of testing out what the message would be if they had to talk about this on the campaign trail for 2020: the failures of Obamacare, the limits, or how it's -- some exchanges in some states are really troubled.

[06:25:13] But for the most part, this is something that Republicans, especially House Republicans in any swing districts that are left, are very nervous about. The Democrats were able to use it more successfully. And it seems like a risk to them. As long as they can run on the economy or, you know, decline of ISIS or some of these other issues that seem like stronger issues, they don't really want to revisit this at this point.

BERMAN: All right. This is the part of the broadcast where we're going to try to diagram some of the sentences the president said in his rally last night. In some ways, this is the most challenging job that we have here.

CAMEROTA: I have a big eraser.

BERMAN: All right. I want to start with S-70, which is something that Alisyn described previously as the breaking wind news. So let's listen.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: If Hillary got in, you wouldn't have that stat. I can tell you right there. You'd be doing wind, windmills, wind. And if it doesn't -- if it doesn't blow, you can forget about television for that night.

"Darling, I want to watch television."

"I'm sorry. The wind isn't blowing."

I know a lot about wind.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HONIG: Oh, so good.

CAMEROTA: He needs to -- Stephen Colbert needs to send flowers to the president today as a thank you for that line.

AVLON: "I know a lot about wind."

BERMAN: Elie, do you know a lot about wind?

CAMEROTA: Do you know a lot of wind.

AVLON: You're a lawyer. The answer is yes.

HONIG: I can give you the scientific breakdown. It's air that moves. That's what I'm here for.

BERMAN: You know what's interesting there. You know, I -- the election also was how many years ago at this point?

CAMEROTA: Ten, 12? I don't remember.

BERMAN: And he's still talking about Hillary Clinton. That is fascinating.

All right. The second sentence we want to diagram here after the breaking wind news, this is S-71. This is the president explaining his critics.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

TRUMP: They say the elite; they're the elite. I'm not. Well, I have a better education than them. I'm smarter than them. I went to the best schools. They didn't. Much more beautiful house. Much more beautiful apartment. Much more beautiful everything. And I'm president, and they're not, right?

(END VIDEO CLIP)

BERMAN: That doesn't sound like someone at all with a complex.

AVLON: No.

CAMEROTA: Hold on a second. I do want to diagram it. I went to the best schools. They didn't? I don't know, I think he should resubmit for the grade. I don't think that's grammatically correct.

BERMAN: I'm sure it's not grammatically correct. CAMEROTA: All right? I mean, if I'm going to diagram this, I don't

think that's grammatically correct.

BERMAN: He also -- he says he got the best grades. He talks about getting great grades and stuff. We don't know that he did, right?

AVLON: Right. Right.

BERMAN: His lawyer, Michael Cohen, wrote a letter to Fordham, insisting that they never release them.

CAMEROTA: They never release them, under any circumstances.

BERMAN: And Margaret, you talk with the president and day out. It does seem that he is obsessed with making sure that people understand how smart he thinks he is.

TALEV: Well, it's sort of an interesting theme and countertheme, because I think there is actually a connection between the wind clip you showed and the "I'm not an elite" clip you showed.

And that is that the president knows that, when he's talking to his base, these are really two themes that resonate, right? The idea that he can kind of -- he's more in keeping, you know, spiritually with the working man or something like that.

And also that things like coal, oil, you know, these -- energy, you know, fossil fuels, that that -- that that's the real trustable energy, not things like wind and solar.

So I think this is telling people in Grand Rapids, Michigan, "I'm your guy," not whoever the Democrats are going to give us.

AVLON: Yes, look, he won Michigan by just over 10,000 votes. That's why he's going there. He needs to hold onto Michigan.

The idea that the president, who lives in a gilded tower on Fifth Avenue, is a hero of the populist working class has always been one of the great magic tricks in American politics.

BERMAN: Well, it's his genius.

AVLON: Yes.

BERMAN: There is an actual political skill in that.

AVLON: Yes, for sure. But -- and it also shows how much of our politics really are about culture and less about, you know, facts and policies.

But that clip shows just the deep boundless need, the deep insecurity behind this president. We get you're president, Mr. President. you don't need to keep telling us. We know. You came in on Air Force One.

BERMAN: He knows a lot about wind. AVLON: He does know a lot about wind.

CAMEROTA: More on -- never mind.

BERMAN: All right. Thank you all for that.

We are just hours away from a new vote on Brexit. You are looking at live pictures from Parliament. So what does this vote mean? Does it mean that the resignation of Theresa May imminent? We have a live report from London, next.
