bill in california for it to become law and say that bill would erase the critical distinction between college and professional athletics and because it gives those schools an unfair recruiting advantage would result in them being unable eventually to compete in ncaa competitions. how do you respond to that? first and foremost when it talks about professionalizing college sports, ncaa amateurism is a fraud. the notion that this is just, you know, a high school basketball or little league, it s not. this is a $14 billion a year industry with millionaire coaches, ucla has an under armour deal worth $280 million and in turn require players to wear the under armour logo to basically serve as walking billboards for this company. it s not amateur athletics and to use that as a justification is ridiculous. in terms of the level playing field, multiple court rulings have shown that there is not a level playing field currently in ncaa sports with the current restrictions. you have 99% of the
really astonishing way with this. another $300 billion in spending, two years of no budget cap or no debt limit, this is rank amateurism. bret: congress said they wanted to go back to regular order. this is not regular order. and there still is plenty of room for a little drama when everybody comes back. bret: still hurt the cats. thinks that we will not have any poison pills. we are not going to have any of these traps but there s plenty of room for the stuff to happen. the other thing to remember is as far as the republicans are concerned, president trump has never been a fiscal conservativ conservative. bret: but he s taken over the party, has he not? he has. the party has been the party of fiscal conservatism in name only. look at the spending that went through the entire george w. bush of administration. this is a sore spot and it always ends up like this. bret: okay, we have more because we are little condensed because of the pakistani borough
was it just a matter of time before with price, though? because yesterday i kept asking guests is it going to happen by the end of the week. yes. as soon as you hit it exactly right, don. bad headlines. donald trump watches lots of cable tv and he reads lots of headlines. the one cardinal sin in trump world is making the boss look bad in the press, and that s what tom price did. trump has no special loyalty to him and so there you go. or getting more press than he does, david. the tombstones are piling up. i remember during the campaign that the president promised that he was going to have the best people. what happened with that? yeah. he was the ceo president who even if he didn t have the wasn t in the weeds of every issue, don, he was going to hire the best people and run things like a business. that has not proven to be the case. in fact with this administration so far there s been this brew of hubris and amateurism that has led the president to where he is right now w
deployed that in south korea to guard against the missile. this is according to news on friday. angering china. moscow and beijing, in a join statement earlier this month called washington to immediately halt the deemployment of that in south korea. do you think the current strategy is wrong? it s fine to do that for an interim period, for a short time. each side shows the other side is means business. but then ultimately you ve got to sit down and talk and i don t see anybody but the south korean as, god bless them actually thinking about that. the more trummism, if you will on our side. more amateurism and that s going to lead to a catastrophe. there are over 200,000 american citizens in this area alone. half of korean s population is in seoul. we beat north korea but it would
inability to stay on message, and all of this really amateurism. i m going to get legal analysis here from jennifer and matt just to get your perspective. jennifer, to you first. as we were just discussing, t not unusual for a campaign to want opposition research on the opponent. but is there anything legal about this now that we know that donald junior did meet with a russian national during the campaign and this person was offering essentially opposition research? so i think gloria is right. this is not your garden variety meeting to get opposition research from somebody. look, i don t know who donald trump junior s lawyer is but the defense that he has offered up so far sounds more like a confession. what i mean by that is that it really looks like there s a possible conspiracy here to violate federal law, because taking anything of value if you re a campaign from a foreign
