COOPER: Tonight, in fact check, a fact check of the President from the President's own attorney general. Today on Fox News Attorney General Barr said something that finally definitively put the lie to what even at the time the President said it sounded untrue. We knew it was a lie when he said it. But now, we know for sure, it's about what happened two Fridays ago when numerous reports the President first family had been taken to the White House bunker as a safety precaution, and there's nothing unreasonable about that. It's not a sign of weakness, or especially unusual frankly. The President when asked about it later, simply could not admit that that had ever happened.</s>DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES: I went down during the day and I was there for a tiny little short period of time. It was much more for an inspection there was no problem during the day. They said it would be a good time to go down, take a look because maybe sometime you're going to need it.</s>COOPER: Yes, just you know, it's good time to take an inspection of the bunker first time Yes, sure do that. Today on Fox News Attorney General Barr put that absurdity to rest, saying quote, things were so bad that the Secret Service recommended that President go down to the bunker. Wow, you just said it. I like that the prisoner lies about something and they don't even get their lies straight. Let's turn it over Chris for "CUOMO PRIME TIME". You would think they would coordinate the lies? My well I mean, I don't know. You would -- yes.</s>CHRIS CUOMO, CNN HOST: At this point --</s>COOPER: Why would they, of course.</s>CUOMO: Lie? Deny --</s>COOPER: Why they could see --</s>CUOMO: -- and defy those are the three rules of divide and conquer.
