Christian frasers in london. The us Secretary Of State, Rex Tillerson, and the Homeland Security secretary, john kelly, have begun a day of meetings with their mexican counterparts. Their mission is to improve the badly damaged relations between the two nations. The trip comes after repeated public criticism of mexico by President Trump and a controversial plan that could mean the deportation of hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants to mexico, regardless of where they came from. This is what the president said about the visit this morning. That is going to be a tough trip because we have to be treated fairly by mexico, that is going to be a tough trip. But he is over there with general kellie who has been unbelievable at the border, you see what is happening at the border, for the first time, we are getting gang members and drug lords out, really bad dudes out of this country. And ata bad dudes out of this country. And at a rate that nobody has ever seen before. And they are the bad ones, and it is a Military Operation because what has been allowed to come into our country, when you see going filers that you have read about like never before, much of thatis about like never before, much of that is people who are here illegally. And they are and they are tough, but they are not tough like out tough, but they are not tough like our people. Bad dudes, the inimitable donald trump. After meeting with. Thgtlfe the Mexican Foreign minister had this to say. I would like to focus on my country. We have expressed by the Secretaries Taylor and kelly. First of. Our taylor and kelly. First of all, our concern to respect the Rights Of Mexicans Living in the United States. And more specifically, the human rights. And more specifically, the human rights. And this what the Secretary Of State said. In our meetings, we acknowledged that ina in our meetings, we acknowledged that in a relationship filled with vibrant colours, that in a relationship filled with vibra nt colours, two that in a relationship filled with vibrant colours, two strong sovereign countries from time to time will have differences. We listened closely and carefully to each other, as we and each other, as we respectfully and patiently raised our respective concerns. Our conversations covered the full range of bilateral issues. 1sz 5421214qu i iellleiile 5541;. fl. 1sz 5421214qu i ielieiilei 5541;. fl. Reaffirmed our Close Corporation we reaffirmed our Close Corporation and economic and commercial issues such as energy, legal migration, security, Educational Exchanges, and security, Educational Exchanges, and. Security, Educational Exchanges, and. C to security, Educational Exchanges . And. C to people ties. We agreed people to people ties. We agreed that our two countries should seize the opportunity to modernise and strengthen our trade and energy relationship. We also reiterated our joint commitment to maintaining law and order, along our shared border, by stopping potential terrorists and dismantling the Transnational Criminal Networks moving drugs and people into the United States. Similarly, we underscored the importance of stopping the illegal firearms and money originating in the United States and flowing into mexico. There is no mistaking that the rule of law matters along both sides of our border. That was wrecked helen that was Rex Tillerson. That was wrecked helen that was Rex Tillerson. John negroponte served as the director of National Intelligence under george w bush. He has also served as a Us Ambassador in a host of countries, including mexico under bill clinton. When you hear donald trump talking about the need for a Military Operation to get rid of what he called bad dudes and send them back south of the border, how much does that reflect the reality of the Immigration Situation as it is today . Well, anything first of all, mrtrump today . Well, anything first of all, mr trump sometimes is trying to speak to multiple and in speak to multiple audiences and in this case, i think speed a bit to his base and reiterating some of the things he said during his campaign. In actualfact, there things he said during his campaign. In actual fact, there are more mexicans leaving the United States than here at the mexicans leaving the United States than here at the moment, as than arriving here at the moment, as far as the flow of migration is concerned, the largest flow of migrants to our country, undocumented migrants, has been from central america. And mexico has played a role in trying to restrain that flow and i noticed that was one of the things Rex Tillerson referred to. Send to kelly saying there would be no mass deportations in mexico city. If immigration from mexico is not such a big issue, is there not a risk to the American Government of creating this rift with mexico which creating Thisrriftrwith Mexicowhictc after a ll creating Thisrriftrwith Mexicowhictc after all an important trading is after all an important Trading Partner and partner when it comes to intelligence sharing Ground Stroke issues, is it in americas issue interests to have this be a bad relationship . This is an extremely important relationship, our Third Largest Trading Partner, we have more Movement Across our common border with mexico than any other country in the world, more than half a billion people crossing throughout the year. It is just a massive the year; it isjusta massive c a a not the year; it isjuste massive c a a not to mention the relationship, not to mention the to people ties and that people to people ties and that roughly 10 of the United States population are mexican descent. Christian it is this a much more aggressive policy donald trump is pursuing. These are the key points from the directive. In theory, it makes 11 million undocumented a target. And notjust migrants a target. And notjust those who have come across in the last couple of weeks, but those who might have come into the country up to two years ago, they might be deep waters without due process. And those returned might not be from mexico, they be those returned might not be from mexico, they be from other mexico, they might be from other Central American states. The point i am making is that even if Enrique Pena Nieto wanted to oblige trump, political, this is so difficult for him. 2. 0 would first come at you used the word, in theory. Some of this is rhetorical, if you dont mind me saying. And we do live in a country of checks and balances and usually occur with some deportations usually occur with some due process. Look at the initial Executive Orders of President Trump with regard to this issue. That is not the last word on it and in the end, these things balanced end, these things well balanced themselves out. The importance of themselves out. The importance of the us mexico relationship will ultimately outweigh some of these other considerations and some good equilibria is ultimately going to be reached. Not to say there will not be bruised feelings along the way. Does it put mr pena nieto in a difficult position . I would certainly agree that it does put mr pena nieto in a difficult position, in part because he has been going through a rough patch. A ee e ee fleas. A e e ee fleas back , ee e ee teeee back home so he is being politically back home so he is being watched very carefully by his critics. And he probably has less room for me never than if his Popularity Ratings were higher. If you look at the statistics, mexico is deporting more Central Americans from its country right now than the United States. The americans are paying for that, but if he does anger mr pena nieto, things could get a lot worse on the us border. I think that is a risk. And i think the point you just made which is that the objective situation is much better than it is sometimes being portrayed In Washington, is a very important one indeed. No one mentions the fact that there are many sectors of our economy very dependent on exports to mexico, the Agricultural Sector to mention one. Thank you very much. The plans to build that wall are getting a lot of bad publicity in mexico, but the reality is that for the past 20 years, barriers and fences have been a fact of life for People Living on the us mexican border. Juan paullier has been to the border town of nogales to see how drug and people traffickers are determined to get round those barriers. Iamjoining a i am joining a patrol of the Water Tunnels that run under the border Connecting Mexico and the United States. We dont know who we might run into, so the police go ahead of us. Run into, so the police go ahead of us. We dont know what to expect. Caution is needed. But caution is needed. So what just happened . But caution is needed. So whatjust happened . They used the cover of darkness and wait for the right moment to creep toward the us and of the tunnel. So the policeman just told me that after i turned on the flashlights, they saw someone ran away. Minutes later, we catch a glimpse of him l the distance. Glimpse of him in the distance. He is not moving. And sergio is pointing at this person with a flashlight. Sergio belize it is better to back up and alert the police, so we are heading towards the entrance of the tunnel. The traffickers use not only the subterranean infrastructure, the authorities have found more than 110 tunnels built by mexican cartels. They called them Narco Tunnels and they name nogales paternal capital of the border. In the cemetery, one them hide in plain sight. Of them hide in plain sight. This is the entrance of a tunnel which was recently filled in. They to carry drugs to be at the of the border and, as you can side of the border and, as you can see, defence is just side of the border and, as you can see, defence isjust about side of the border and, as you can see, defence is just about from here. People have a way of getting round fences, ifind. People have a way of getting round fences, i find. Trump people have a way of getting round fences, ifind. Trump has nominated his pick for a new Supreme Court justice. Many hope he will get a second choice as well. The oldest member of the court is 83 and is pretty frail. Ruth Bader Ginsburg was appointed in 1993 by president clinton and has traditionally sided with the liberal wing of the court. Last night, she spoke to bbcs newsnight, while she was attending the final Dress Rehearsal of Dead Man Walking at the Kennedy Center In Washington, dc an Opera Looking at the moral ambiguity of the Death Penalty in america. She started by talking about the current mood in america. Im optimistic, long run. There was a great man once said the true symbol and when the pendulum swings too far in one direction, it will go back. Some terrible things have happened in the United States that one can i would say that we are not experiencing the best of times. But theres hope in seeing how the public is reacting to it. The womens march, ive never seen such a demonstration, both the numbers and the rapport of the people in that crowd. There was no violence. It was orderly. So, yes, we are not experiencing the best of times, but there is reason to hope that we will see a better day. But what is important is that we have a free press, which many countries dont have. Think of what the press has done in the United States. I lived in the famous watergate. That story might never have come out if we didnt have the free press that we do. Why do you mention that . Do you feel its something thats maybe forgotten . Do i think its forgotten . Well, the importance of that, its. I read the Washington Post and the New York Times every day, and i think that the reporters are trying to tell the public the way things are. Youre 83, youre the oldest Serving Member on the Supreme Court. How long do you think you can do this . At my age, you have to take it year by year. I know im ok this year. But what will be next year. Im hopeful, however, because my most senior colleague, the one who most recently retired, justicejohn paul stevens, stepped down at age 90, so i have a way to go. Do you think you should carry on till youre 90 . As i said, at this stage of my life, i take it year by year. One of the more liberal members of the bench. 83. She wants to go on until she is 90 and Many Democrats will hope she can do that. Yes, it is quite rare to hear a Supreme Courtjustice yes, it is quite rare to hear a Supreme Court justice talking yes, it is quite rare to hear a Supreme Courtjustice talking like that, about politics and the state of the country, but she has been one of the country, but she has been one of the country, but she has been one of the more outspoken, rare for a Supreme Courtjustice and less so for the 10,000 Conservative Activists. Some 10,000 Conservative Activists have converged on a Convention Centre a few miles from washington for the annual conservative Political Action conference, known here as cpac. Its not a gathering thats always loved donald trump. He was booed there in recent years. One of the other Main Attractions on the day was steve bannon. Within his cabinet, and a former chair of the ring wing website breitbart. He hasjust been he has just been speaking and first went through trumps achievements but was not so, entry about the media. That is where you have seen, the Executive Orders, the Supreme Court, the way he has been through the Supreme Court and the 102 Supreme Court and the other 102 judges that we will eventually pick it is methodical and that is what the Mainstream Media will not report, does like they were dead wrong in the campaign and in the case of the transition. They are absolutely dead wrong about what is going on today because we have a tea m going on today because we have a team that is just grinding it through and what President Donald Trump permits the american people. And all of his promises are going to be fermented. Steve bannon in bullish mood. He had more to say about the administrations policies. If you look at the lines of work, i break it into three verticals. The first is national and first is National Security and sovereignty, intelligence, the defence department, Homeland Security. The second is economic nationalism, and that is, as, the treasury, trade. These people how we will reconstruct rethinking how we will reconstruct our Trade Arrangements around the world. The third, broadly, line of work, is what is deconstruction of the administrative state. So i think the administrative state. So i think the three most important thing is, i one of the most pivotal think one of the most pivotal moments in modern American History was his immediate withdrawalfrom tpp. Got to set up a trade deal and let our sovereignty compact ourselves, the Mainstream Media do not get this but we are working in consultation and people are thinking through a raft of amazing and innovative bilateral relationships, bilateral Trading Relationships with people, that will reposition america in the world, is a fair Trading Nation and start to bring jobs. High value added Manufacturing Jobs that United States of america. On the the United States of america. On the National Security part, it was certainly the first. You have seen in Fermented Under General Kelly that the rule of law is going to exist when you talk about our sovereignty and immigration. General kelly and Attorney General sessions are adamant that you will start to see with the Defence Budget we will talk about next week, when we bring the budget out, and also with certain things about the plan on isis and what general matters and these guys think. But the third, this regulation. Every Business Leader has said it is notjust taxes, it is also the regulation. If you look at these cabinet appointees, they were selected for a reason, and that is the deconstruction, the way the Progressive Left runs. If they cannot. It passed, they put in cannot get it passed, they put in some sort of regulation in an agency, that is going to be deconstructed and that is why this regulatory thing is so important. Steve bannon speaking. Our correspondent nick bryant is at the conference for us. We dont hear steve bannon speak very often in public, not their daily on television, but when we do, he makes it very clear he does not like the media and he has a fairly radical approach to government, as we we re radical approach to government, as we were hearing. But political nerds like me and you, this is like having a harry potter book coming out or a new star wars film. In the star wars analogy works because many people regard him as darth vader he thinks he isa regard him as darth vader he thinks he is a great figure he has become this mythic figure and we rarely hear him speak. We hear about stuff, but we rarely hear him speak. And here he is with Reince Priebus, the chief of staff at the white house, is supposedly his great opponent in the west wing, so many reports about them not getting on because Reince Priebus was the chairman of the Republican National committee on the face of the republican establishment and steve bannon is conservative insurgents so fiercely the republican party. But they were here talking like a couple on their honeymoon. Finishing each others ee t . Amazing Tt Ete tt Amazing Body Tt Ete tt amazing Body Language sentences, amazing Body Language with them. Obviously united in their hatred for the media. Steve bannon repeatedly referring to it as the opposition. Is that a consistent rally for the conservative base that he is speaking to . It certainly works in the room. Every time he had agoat works in the room. Every time he had a go at the media, you sense a ripple of applause amongst the conservative faithful. At cpac. An organisation that has not in the past been welcoming to steve bannon and they have not invited him before. So really fascinating. Does that cousins suggest conservatives are becoming more conservatives are becoming more conservative or the administration is tempering itself . Steve bannon said something justin, when the conservative movementjoins forces with the republican party, they are unstoppable and donald trump did that in a way that no other person could. Christian. You say it is one rule for those in the news media, but a lot of people in the uk would be familiar with steve bannon, Reince Priebus, stephen miller, these characters in his inner circle, i cannot think of a time before when so many members ofan a time before when so many members of an administration have been so well known to the public, in so short a time. It isjust a fantastic cast of characters. You have not even mentioned kellyanne conway, who has been benched for the paschal but of days and not appearing before the media much. Forthe of days and not appearing before the media much. For the past couple of days. A dramatic cast of characters, jared kushner, ivanka trump. It is so interesting because so much of the gossip In Washington is how these people are not getting on with each other, there are these different power hubs within the west fighting against each other wing fighting against each other rather than working together. You had Reince Priebus here and Steve Bannonin had Reince Priebus here and steve bannon in this rather dramatic show of unity and it did not seem to be put on, manufactured, prefabricated, they generally seem to get on. Thank you very much. Such is the way, people seem to have rows all the time in palaces ifind that, anyway here have been angry scenes across america, as constituents confront their congressional representatives at local town hall meetings. Voters keen to vent their frustration are demanding that the Trump Administration is held to account. Our North America correspondent, rajini vaidyanathan, has been to iowa, a state that supported a trump presidency, but also has passionate concern about the countrys future. A warm welcome on home turf for republican senator chuck grassley. Good evening. Give me one word or two words. But there is frustration. Most had come to vent their anger over the policies of President Trump. Out of control. Climate change. I am a person from a Muslim Country and i am a muslim. Who is going to save me here . Things soon got heated. I ask him, not you, so shut your hole the most contentious issue was health care. Dont you dare give me a vague politician answer, with memorised republican Talking Points to cloud the truth. If it wasnt for obamacare, we wouldnt be able to afford insurance. Chris peterson used a novel way to attract the senators attention, heartburn medicine. Ive got a present for you, if you want em. Its called tums. Youre going to need them in the next few years we went to meet chris at his pig farm in rural iowa. Its notjust Trump Supporters who are disgruntled with the political class. Chris voted for Hillary Clinton and hopes town halls will give people like him a voice. People are waking up. Thats the only thing i can say positively about trump. Hes waking people up. Were tired of getting screwed. I heard somebody say impeachment, so im going to write that down. Ata at a later evans, the pressure was still on. It is time to put country over party. And that demand being heard at the town halls across america. Scenes like this are reminiscent of the tea party in the early days of the obama administration, where conservatives packed out the town halls to put pressure on their congressmen and women senators when it came to mr obamas policies. These back to President Trump . I wont take these back to trump, ill take them back to my colleagues. I dont think you should see it as challenging trump, i think you should see it as congress doing its job and the president doing hisjob. For republican politicians like senator grassley, thejob is challenging, its about balancing the agenda of President Trump with the voters who keep him in office. So, no doubt, christian, that members of congress are facing a tough time as they go back to their states, but some have decided to stay away completely. And in one california district, one group has decided to launch this campaign to find their representative. Yes, those are milk bottles, bearing the face of republican congressman paul cook. His constituents are wondering why hes not fronted a town hall event. California, you might remember, is most definitely a democratic state, so the chance to put some tough questions to a republican would no doubt be a well attended event. Iam i am tempted to say he bottled it cani i am tempted to say he bottled it can ijust i am tempted to say he bottled it can i just talk about the thing obama said before he left office . Change only happens, ordinary people, get involved, get engaged, get together to demand change, maybe thatis get together to demand change, maybe that is what they are doing. Into this and nine, republicans were angry at those town hall meetings, protesting against obamaca re angry at those town hall meetings, protesting against obamacare in 2009. Similar to the meetings today. The democrats dismissed those people and said it was manufactured anger. Republicans using almost identical language to those liberals today, they should remember history. 0k, lessons in history. Youre watching 100 days, from bbc news. Still to come for viewers on the bbc news channel and bbc world news. Challenging the chancellor we report from western germany, to get more on the man who would be the countrys next leader. And we speak to a gay man who voted for donald trump. What does he make of the president s push to roll back some of obamas lgbt policies . Well be finding out. Thats still to come on 100 days, from bbc news. We really have had quite a battering today, we mostly done with the storm, it is blowing itself out and it is heading towards the low countries here. Lets have a look at some of the gusts. 70 mph of the north west coast of england and look at that in london, 62 miles an hour. We do not often get those winds inland and that is why the storm was so disruptive and damaging, because of the severe gales inland. And aspects of the storm, snow across scotland, Winter Wonderland here. But only confined to scotland. You can see a white across the southern plans and lowlands and highlands and the gales were way the the gales were way towards the south. As far as the early mid evening is concerned, the last of the gales just about clipping east anglia, and we had an 81 out hour gust hummable much lighter now. If you are travelling this evening, this is around 9pm with showers and winds. At this stage in many lighter winds. At this stage in many areas, the winds are very light indeed. This is the wind gusts at this stage, around nine p. M. Talking about 28, 30 mph. Easily double that, more than double that 35913 15135315539314931551 some areas. And tonight, the in some areas. And tonight, the winds clear from that far eastern and South Eastern Coastline and we will have clear skies. The other hazard is icy patches and temperatures will dip to freezing in one or two spots. Friday morning begins chilly with light winds and sunshine, a crisp sunny start. The rain moves in the belfast, whilst Western Scotland and dublin and areas will get snow, but nice and quiet across most of england, i am pleased to say, and east wales. Saturday, another big blow comes in, not a storm, regular cloud, wind and rain from the south west. Mild winds, temperatures throughout the country in double figures, aberdeenshire and aberdeen around 11 10 degrees in plymouth. Degrees. 10 degrees in Plymouthee Eeee Ee ,, e on sunday, degrees. 10 degrees in Plymouthee Eeee Ee ,, e on sunday, but the degrees. 10 degrees in Plymouthee Eeee Ee ,, e on sunday, but the rain is similar on sunday, but the rain is confined towards the North Western areas of the uk. Welcome back to 100 days. Our top story this hour the us Secretary Of State is in mexico for talks about President Trumps border wall and Immigration Plans mexicos Foreign Minister says current us policy is causing concern and irritation. And also ahead as donald trump revokes the government protections for transgender students, well find out what the leader of the Gays For Trump group thinks of the president s im Christian Fraser in london. Katty kay is In Washington. Hes the man who might be germanys next chancellor. A month after he announced his candidacy, Martin Schulz the former president of the European Parliament is doing well in opinion polls. Indeed his Social Democrats are neck and neck with mrs merkels conservatives and one poll published today has even put them ahead, for the First Time Since 2006. Our berlin correspondentjenny hill has been to his Home Town Of Wuerselen in west germany. Carnival season in an election year. Time perhaps for something completely different. There is a new prince in town and he mightjust take Angela Merkels crown. Translation i think he is good for his party. He is close to the people. I like him but he still has to prove he can lead germany the way Angela Merkel has. Translation angela would be the better chancellor. She has more experience. I would be happy if Martin Schulz went into a coalition with her and the two of them could bring europe forword. Critics say Martin Schulz is more brussels than berlin, but questions over his eu expenses and conduct dont seem to have damaged his shot at germanys top job. Translation in his hometown. He left School Without qualifications, had a Football Career Cut short by injury and beat Alcohol Addiction to become the local mayor. Translation as a Football Player he was not the best technician and he has lots of characteristics which make a good politician. He was a team player, his willpower and drove us to success, even against superior teams. Germany, says some, is tiring of Angela Merkel. The new arrival has yet to unveil his manifesto but he has new rival. Already promised generous and controversial welfare reforms. Translation with Martin Schulz, the political competition has returned. We have missed that in the past few years. We have a re politicised society, a process that he is driving, that will help make the parties more distinct. Germanys political story is changing. A Ruling Coalition of all left wing parties no longer out of the question. Martin schulz, polls suggest, is the most popular choice of chancellor. But i think it is still a long time until the elections in september and so i think it will be hard for the Social Democrats to keep that running. A month ago you could predict with some certainty Angela Merkel will win the september election, albeit having taken a hammering from the right wing afd. Now, almost overnight, she faces significant opposition for the first time in years from a different political direction. Germany, like much of europe, was edging towards the political right, now it is just as likely to instead turn to the left. And after a year of global politicat anything could happen. Ina in a christian, you interviewed Martin Schulz before the American Election and i was wondering what jenny was talking about, is this a question of any big anybody but Angela Merkel due to her policies on immigration. We have reported afd is doing well on the right. Also doing well on the right and also Martin Schulz doing well, too. There is one thing to say about Angela Merkel, she has been a constant throughout the eurozone crisis. When she came to Powerjacques Chirac was still in power in 2005. There is still in power in 2005. There is still a long way to go and maybe with the donald trump effect and Brexit Kicking and people will look again and see we need a steady hand and we need Angela Merkel. It is not and we need Angela Merkel. It is not a beauty pageant, the german system, it is not about personality, it is about grand coalitions. So there are three parties on Angela Merkels site and see would have to pull in the green party and the Communist Leaning Party which would drag him to the left. When interviewed him just after brexit i asked him about donald trump and have a listen to what he said. He said you said he was a nightmare for europe. Do you believe that . Yes. Normally i see what i think and believe i think it isa what i think and believe i think it is a nightmare. Is he encouraging the populist movements . For sure. Look to your fellow countryman, nigel farage. This is a similar thing to what you can expect. nigel farage. This is a similar thing to what you can expect. If he became the next chance that he might have some work to do to convince the donald trump. A Diplomatic Mission to washington. Nigel farage, incidentally, is at that conference today, Close Friends with donald trump. Just look at the crowds there. Very popular with the Conservative Activists. Iraqi forces are consolidating their positions inside Mosul Airport. Its a strategic win for the allies in their battle to drive so called ista micstate fights fsfiau , the troops took the airfield in a matter of hours with the help of Us Led Coalition air strikes. Theyve also fought their way into a large is held Military Base next door. A woman has been killed by Falling Debris in wolverhampton, england, as high winds of more than 150 kilometres an hour batter parts of the uk. Storm doris is causing disruption across much of britain. The strong winds have led to Flight Cancellations and road and rail disruptions. Over Three Thousand homes across the uk are without power. At the end of each week here on 100 days we like to talk to someone who voted for donald trump to get their assessment of how hes getting on as president. A lot of his voters were christian evangelicals, a lot of the posts in the administration have been filled by people who are socially conservative. So let me introduce you to peter boykin, he is the president of Gays For Trump and hejoins us from greensboro north carolina. Thank you for being with us. I mention that there are so many socially conservative people but then the administration that some people might not think it is a natural fit. Is it people might not think it is a naturalfit. Is it donald people might not think it is a natural fit. Is it donald trump people might not think it is a naturalfit. Is it donald trump in particular that persuaded you . I believe donald trump is a very great individual and has notjust one Person Persuading me to become a republican but a lot that had to do with the actions of the far a liberal Democratic Party and their decisions. There has been an interesting decision taken about the use of bathrooms in schools for transgender children and the white house says it isa children and the white house says it is a matter for the schools and states and rolled back and obama policy. Part of it isjeff sessions, the Attorney General, who will look ata the Attorney General, who will look at a lot of these issues in that way. Does that worry you . No, it does not. I met Withjeff Sessions and he is very much welcome to Lgbt Concerns and we have to understand this is just concerns and we have to understand this isjust a concerns and we have to understand this is just a withdrawal pending consideration and it is more of donald trump having said multiple times this is the issue of States Rights and not the best dealt with ata rights and not the best dealt with at a federal level. There is a supreme at a federal level. There is a Supreme Court at a federal level. There is a Supreme Court case at a federal level. There is a Supreme Court case of a transgender boy which will be argued on march 20 of this year. What is that in particular you like about donald trump since his inauguration . What has he done you most admire and respect . He has spent the first 30 days honouring every single thing he has said he was going to do. He only has had issues with the opposite force against him. He has broughtjobs, tried to improve trade, protect our borders, trying to limit immigration. Would you like to have would immigration. Would you like to have would you immigration. Would you like to have would you like them to have moved faster on some issues such as repealing and replacing carer. Repealing and replacing obama carer. That is something both sides have worked on multiple ways and that is something that cannot be changed that quickly. We do not want to rush important things and make mistakes. We rushed when nancy pelosi said a vote for it so we can open it up and then we can make it law, that was rushing things and you see what we got from that. Donald trump is taking it one step at the time the things that do not need to be rushed. Thank you very much. I was going to pick up with one of the issues, we have talked about the issues, we have talkedeabout conference today, the ball of this conference today, the ball of donald trump there tomorrow when he appears they are tomorrow morning but they will like them all the more, talking about socially conservative issues, because of the things he has done already. One of the anomalies of the primary Campaign Last year is why were christian conservatives voting for him who has been married three did not come across as times, did not come across as particularly christian, had at various points being very pro choice on abortion rights and i think there was some confusion and it did not seem was some confusion and it did not seem to make was some confusion and it did not seem to make sense. Was some confusion and it did not seem to make sense. If you look at what he has done since coming into office he has nominated the most conservative cabinet in half a century. More conservative than Ronald Reagans cabinet. Put in place people in education, environmental, legal issues who are very ha rd environmental, legal issues who are very hard right conservative figures. This is a Country Taking A Ha rd figures. This is a Country Taking A Hard right turn so when he goes to the Conference Tomorrow they will be very pleased and they may have been sceptical about whether he was a real conservative but he certainly is governing as a real conservative. One thing is governing as a real conservative. One thing i have seen are talking about is they were saying they were bottom up rather than top down which isa bottom up rather than top down which is a problem the democrats had, filling the imposed Hillary Clinton on the electorate.
