in gerrymandering districts and conservative media can brook no compromise, can't work with him to get anything done and there's a straight line from that to trump? >> i cannot agree more. i've watched this president and i've watched this congress and there seems to be gridlock. whenever someone makes a move to broker some kind of deal, be it trying not to have a government shutdown. we hear things like green eggs and ham. you know? this president has gone golfing with john boehner trying to broker deals. this was the pervasive thought. we've heard people like rush limbaugh saying that he wanted the country to fail. he said that. this is not conjecture. this is not a myth.
