Building and for saying youre fired on the apprentice. The former tv star carried some reality show habits with him to the oval office, seems particularly fond of one specific game show device, the tease. Well now unlike tv, where the goal is to get to you come back after the commercial break, trumps teases seem designed to keep us on the edge of our news feeds, thus distracted from his many scandals. Trump tweeted for weeks to tee up his final decision on the paris climate accord. It was 3 00 p. M. On may 31st. Did you tune in live . Spoiler alert, it was not a hit. And earlier that month trump had the entire nation waiting for the answer to one question. Are there tapes of his conversation with former fbi director james comey who before he was fired was running the russia investigation. This week when we finally got the big reveal trump does not have any recordings and never actually did, we learned the original tapes tweet was unlike his other teases.

Fortune, this thing, believe me. The president s big broken promise. The rich will not be gaining at all with this plan. Plus, no end in sight.

When all in starts right now. Good evening from new york. Im chris hayes. After weeks of back room dealmaking, months of grand prk la medications about what theyd deliver, years fantasizing what another round of reaganera tax reform, today the moment arrived for republicans to put their tax bill up for a vote and they bungled it. Lawmakers are debating the bill in the senate. The house voted earlier today which was supposed to be the big celebratory moment.

Ill tell you what, rudy is a great guy but he just started a day ago. But he really has his heart into it. Hes working hard. Hes learning the subject matter. And hes going to be issuing a statement, too. But he is a great guy. He knows its a witch hunt. Thats what he knows pep started yesterday. Hell get his facts straight. Hes a great guy. Well, that flies in the face of what giuliani told nbc news last night. Youre not going to see daylight between the president and me. Trump today distanced himselves from that Giul
