people with disabilities and people that are working. or for minimum wage or walmart. this is a terrible idea. we need to increase the benefits of snap so people can afford healthy food. right now, we have about $200 billion of health care costs that are associated with diet. you work a lot in the rural communities in north carolina. what happens if they are cutting the post office and if someone s box doesn t get delivered. what happens if it is out in the rain and gets wet. what happens if the children are allergic to what s in the box. where is the church and eat vth white evangelical church? this is cruelty to black and brown and the white rural moore. all over the south and other places, whether they are homeless in alabama or north carolina. i think the so-called
attacking senators especially in the same party. i ve seen that play out before. it never ends well for the president, does it, philip? no, it certainly doesn t. donald trump came to washington, he s a ceo, used to running the show and doing what he wants to do. he comes to washington has to deal with 535 people with their own constituencies. he promised i m the deal maker, i can bring it. i alone can fix it, he said a year ago this week and what we re seeing is he can t do that. he doesn t know how to deal with the house and the result is kasie hunt on capitol hill, behind the scenes i know there s a lot of democrats who say he s not fit to be president and they have reasons why some that are considered appropriate, some that may not be at this point. are there republicans behind the scenes beginning to feel this way? i believe this is the kind of behavior that will make those members rise. look, i think this is the
to stay. the president clearly seems to be trying to force him out without firing him. if the attorney general quit i think it would plunge the white house into crisis because again there would be no attorney general, getting someone nominated and confirmed would be very difficult under thesirk stacks and rod rosenstein would be in charge of the justice department. he is not sessions in any number of ways. so this is a face-off. donald trump creates unprecedented situations. this is a face-off unlike we ve ever seen, but all indications are that sessions isn t going to go. the white house, people around the president would like to defuse this situation but we ve seen this side of donald trump. he s made a decision that he wants to torture the attorney general and he s going to apparently continue it at least a little while longer but i ll say again no clear outcome because he s in a box. he s cornered by mueller, and everything he s trying to do to get out of that box doesn t have a gr
donald trump, and again, just doesn t need him. look, he s got an alabama constituency to be sure but got a national constituency with breitbart, washington radio and c constituency in the united states senate, a lot of republicans and democrats will side with him. the president also as he did with james comey is turning sessions from an enemy in some corners of the left not quite a hero, someone they are looking to be a martyr. senator i want to ask you about what you think the legalities are. say the president just said i m firing the independent counsel. i m going to fire mueller directly. do you think as a matter of law and not a matter of politics but as a matter of law he can do that or does he have to have the deputy attorney general do that? america, he cannot fire him
different bill up against the wall every probably six to eight hours for the next few days and hope that one of them sticks. they tried the senate bill last night, the one they crafted in behind closed door working groups. failed miserably. we hear they ll try later to pass a repeal bill rand pause wants, that will likely want. my worry they bully these guys into delivering 50 votes. that will be terrible for the country, because it will unininsure 15 to 25 million people and terrible for them, too. what does it look like, senator in doesn t seem like they re getting close to 50 on these votes for the actual bills. what does that bill look like that gets 50 votes? so the scuttlebutt is that they are going to eventually offer a dramatically winnowed down version of the original bill, maybe two or three provisions in the entire bill
