to revise, strengthen, and bolster obamacare so that it will support the health care needs of your constituents here in house district 6. politicians are also facing anger from the left on judge neil gorsuch s nomination to the supreme court. actually his confirmation now. if neil gorsuch was the first to be filibustered, what happened to merrick garland s vote? [ cheers and applause ] meanwhile congressmen hold town halls so they can have face time with voters. they can also run the risk of saying something unfortunate on camera that provides fodder for future attack ads. let s watch oklahoma congressman markwayne mullin yesterday. bthe way, if i chooseot to get insurance, i take that risk. that s my risk. guys, i get that. but it s still my decision. i want to make that decision.
they ll decide. a coalition of watchdog groups filed suit to force the release of those records which were published on the white house website during the obama years but not anymore. we ll be right back. -i would. -i would indeed. well, let s be clear, here. i m actually a deejay.

the experts seem to say that china, under max baucus, who was our ambassador for three years, they re not really willing to go all the way and put the pressure on. there s a lot of skepticism that they want to take on their communist ally in north korea and really push them. but i think trump is pushing it to say we have to deal with this now. we know that he has nuclear weapons. we know he has not gotten to the point of putting those okay. so we ve got to stop it right now. ned, tell me something i don t know. is he smart to gin this up? to heat it up rather than the slow, strategic waiting thing that went on before? is it better to push this thing now before they get strategic weapons that can reach us? brinit h now. force the reckoning now rather than wait. what s better? now or later? we ve taken eight years. we ve tried that path. let s take this path and john, where are you? pressure him now or wait? it s a gamble. look, we re pressuring him right now. what
big shot and have nuclear weapons that look like they re ready to go. how do we get him back from that sort of defcon one of his or whatever he d like to be on? i think right now the only option we have is china. and clearly trump is putting all his eggs in that basket again. but he s also trying to be transactional about it. for example, he offered china a better deal on trade if the chinese would play ball in north korea. but it s very clear that he s put significant pressure on china and also that he used the strike on syria as a way to show the chinese that he means business. so from that perspective, i agree with ambassador baucus, that he s playing this relatively correctly right now. the question is whether the chinese take him seriously enough to actually put the added pressure that is needed to be put on the north koreans to get them to begin to change their behavior. that s a big question. let me go over to ambassador hill again. go ahead. sometimes it s important to th
the obama administration has. it s going to be interesting. it looks like trump s aggressive strategy may be a real change from the past. we ll see if it s safer. anyway, ambassador christopher hill over in seoul, john pom fret, thank you. senator max baucus. by the way, i call you senator because you were elected to that. ambassador is for guys who haven t been elected for that. and kelly, thank you very much for joining us. coming up, president trump has shown a willingness to use military force lately. remember what he told me last rch our hardball town hall. watch this. look, nuclear should be off the table. but would there be a time when it could be used? possibly. okay. the trouble is when you said that, the whole world heard, they re hearing a guy running for president of the united states talking of maybe using nuclear weapons. nobody wants to hear that about an american president. then why do we make them? why do we make them if we don t want to use them? the pol
