toughness and just say, hey, listen, it s their fault? what do you hear what you talk to voters? well, certainly, i think for most of americans and most people that i ve had communicated with, it s sympathy. i mean, the fact that surely they want to secure our borders and we want to fix our broken immigration system and we want to stop illegal immigration, but we don t want to tear families apart. and it s about, so i think most people are compassionate about keeping families together. congressman kaufman, thank you for taking the time and thank you for taking the questions. thank you for having me. outfront next, several slamming trump for comments some call offensive and uncalled for. did trump cross a line by mocking republican president bush and trump ignites a costly trade war with china, so how is this good for the u.s. economy? i m going to ask one of the president s top trade advisers.
minors who are coming, being sent to america by their family members and are coming either by themselves or with somebody who is sort of being their guide that is not related to them. congressman, let me turn to some of the politics of all of this, because you had made some news in the last couple of days, calling for white house adviser stephen miller to be fired. let s play what you said to cnn s manu raju. i believe stephen miller advised him on the border, on this recent problem, in terms of tearing families apart, that lack of understanding of the significance of how that played out. it has stephen miller s fingerprints on it, and so, you know, i think that the president needs a different adviser. so, it sounds like you re calling for some accountability, but what difference do you think it would really make if stephen miller were to leave? well, first of all, i think the president got some miserable advice on undergoing a program

shooting should be immediately arrested and charged in this incident. now, that district attorney s office has told us that he plans to remain on the case and he has no plans to step down right now and believes that he can investigate this situation fairly. we ll have to see tonight, ana, how those protesters respond to that. there are at least two or three different organizers that are talking about planning events tonight. we actually just saw a really big rainstorm come through here, so weather could impact some of that as rain showers are expected on and off throughout the day. but as i said before, the situation here remains tense so everybody is on edge. all right, ryan nobles in pittsburgh, thank you, sir. our breaking news this hour, president trump touting his immigration policy to a crowd of supporters in las vegas. this as congressional lawmakers describe sobbing children at detention centers near the u.s. border with mexico. and joining us now is republican congressman
prematu prematurely, let them play its course. this investigation can go on and we are going to continue to work on tax reform. this over seas trip was a perfect time for us to show our strengths around the world. today was a tremendous day for the administration. the saudi arabia event and ot only the optics looked great. it is a great way fight and combatting terrorism across the world. what s happening here at home, there is been some republicans who have said that this was a turning point of this past week. i am looking at representatives congressman kaufman from colorado said this week. it is no tt a question of what e president can do but it is a question of and being the president of what he needs to do is p be the president. do you believe that we are
