President trump is still that well take a look at his first turbulent yeah and office. And fill gail welcome to the program europes two most powerful leaders are meeting to discuss their visions for the bloc im going to medical visits paris for talks with french president Emmanuel Mccraw theyre trying to hammer out a series of reforms to the eurozone some of president mackerels ideas are he wants to separate budgets and the single finance minister for the eurozone german chancellor those more hesitant time to agreement seems a long way off. Lets see how theyre getting on max out hoffman in paris so welcome max what do these two leaders want. Well the most important piece of news that came out of the press Conference Held here by macular micro is probably that now its official they want a second ellies a treaty the first of these a treaty having reached fifty five years of age and being the foundation basically for many ways of cooperating between the two countries and therefore a symbol of peace and also friendship between the two countries and they want a new one that is adapted to the twenty First Century so both macro and micro confirmed that but at the same time of course they also talked about the challenges of what we call the reform of the European Union you just mentioned two of those challenges but the german chancellor also insisted that this would include a defense cooperation even maybe a Defense Union and securing for example the external borders against illegal migration into the European Union ok so thats sus some of what they want and whether they disagree. Its hard to say because both try to hide any form of disagreement and you have to say that the germans so far dont really have an official government line quite simply because they dont have a new government yet so the real disagreements that come out when you talk about the meat and potatoes about the details about how to put something on the ground they have not emerged yet and theyre clearly trying not to let them emerge either is just to give you an example french president my cross said listen we know that we might not necessarily have the same ways of getting places getting to the same to the goals that we have but whats important is that we have the same goal and he insisted on that they really had a show of unity as they have always had in the past months and try to dwell on that and not on the possible differences that you mentioned earlier the problems chancellor merkel is having a back home forming a new government lets listen to what the chancellor had to say about that. Then i can understand that france in particular is waiting for a new German Government to be formed in our negotiations for a possible coalition we have put europe at the top of the agenda but we know that to achieve something in europe we need a stable German Government and. Myself what in paris and how the chancellors domestic political problems affecting her position in a you politics you cant really get in the of the big projects done without the most important player in the European Union and that is still germany at least if you look at it it canonically Everybody Knows it and even my call indirectly endorsed that this grand coalition between the social democrats and the c. D. U. Actually happened he said i dont want to meddle with interior politics in germany but let me say this there are great ambitions for europe in the exploratory talks theres a document that really deals in the first pages almost uniquely with the European Union with an outlook for europe so clearly that he is in favor of that because my call has developed many different ideas many different visions and he wants to start developing them with a strong german partner that he doesnt have it not often in paris thank you well because the chancellor is a domestic fight could be decided by a cave vote here in germany a face weekend on sunday the s. P. D. Party leader in shoals will try to convince a special Party Conference to back that leaderships decision to talk to the chancellors conservatives about entering a new grand coalition to go she ations with americas conservatives can only begin if the conference votes yes a no vote would mean a minority government or fresh elections los angeles has been in balance speaking about sundays vote. Surveillance that we are concentrating on reaching a majority of the Party Congress on sunday in favor of the decision to enter into talks aimed at finding a Coalition Deal that is my task to get a majority others are trying to get a majority for their positions that is how a Democratic Party works. In a lot of it will cause. Many social democrats do remain skeptical deeply skeptical about entering another coalition and im going to medical know are those reservations greater than in the partys Youth Organization which could hold the balance of power and on sunday the w quarter with its later. Six months ago no one knew who he was now it seems Everyone Wants a piece of kevin care net at just twenty eight the leader of the s. P. D. Is youth wing is on a mammoth mission to stop him of the grand coalition between the social democrats and the conservatives what germans call. We reject a renewed grand coalition because we convinced it wouldnt be right for democracy in germany and we consider it negligent to let the far right if do you become the leading Opposition Party and for the second time in two months kennett will be locking horns with s. P. D. Party leader Martin Schultz on sunday as he bids to go vins Party Delegates to vote no grow closer to his grassroots support q not believes this is the only way for the s. P. D. To regenerate after damage in years into medical governments. For me hes the kind of politician who hopefully certainly shaped the future of this party. That they tried to influence a very talented upcoming politician hes still young and everything lies ahead of him i think something will become of him. Even possum members who support the idea of a grand coalition have high hopes for cure not political future imported t. V. And put in the most positive sense hes a politics junkie he breathes politics but at the same time hes matter of fact and stands by his opinion and he definitely has a big future as a. Kid that became a member of the s. P. Day at just fifteen in the same year that Angela Merkel was first elected chancellor but can it snow grow Coke Campaign now threatens to end her twelve year reign. Thats because thats i think im going mad cause time in office will soon end because her policy model simply no longer works you can sit on issues forever and make new decisions but things arent going to get automatically better when shes no longer chancellor you know america is a Business Council is its a classic tale of experience against youth name first is nobody but they snow today could well be the straw that breaks the camels back in germanys chancellor.

Border officials throughout the year the government stepped up raids and arrests of suspected undocumented persons in the u. S. The wall on the u. S.

One clear triumph for trump was the ascension of neil course to the Supreme Court for many conservatives this was an affirmation of why they voted for trump course it is an arch conservative jurist at just forty nine years old and with a lifetime appointment he is likely to shape a good portion of american law moving forward. Only legislative success so far has been his tax bill with an estimated one point five trillion dollars in tax cuts it advances several conservative republican objectives like slashing corporate taxes and in particular lowering the rate for the richest americans he signed the bill into law even though the American Public largely disapproved.
