negotiating tactic and how you would feel about it then? >> i don't know if it's a tactic or not. all i know is he's testing our state and i believe it's something he really wants to get done. as to if it really gets done, i don't know if that matters. what matters is we take the most respective route to eliminating illegal immigration. some the prime issues we have in our state as well. >> melissa: you stick to some of the issues at the president campaigned on, have you been frustrated lately that the discussion has gotten sidetracked on issues and he isn't necessarily helping himself in the sense that last night was a great opportunity to really pound the table on policy. he talked about the wall, but you want to hear about tax reform. you want to hear about regulation.
