Network. This is what the president wrote in the Early Morning hours, quote. I heard poorly rated morning joe speaks badly of me. Dont watch anymore. Then how come lowi can crazy mika, along with saiko joe came to maralago three nights in a year around new years eve and insisted on joining me she was bleeding badly from a facelift. I said no. Later in the afternoon Sarah Huckabee sanders deferred the indefensible saying the president hits back when hit and the media have been unrelentingly mean in the coverage especially the Morning Program on this network. Did the president go too far with his tweet in its dopely personal nature . I dont think so. I think the president has been attacked mercilessly on personal accounts by members of that program. And he he has been clear when he gets attacked he is going to hit back. Where does the president draw that line on the dignity of the office . Look, i think that he shows that every day in the decisions that he is making, the focus on the pri
This afternoon. No. I think thats the right way it put it. I think that speech sort of stood alone. Im not sure that it was even a predictor of his own behavior, let alone of any other republican senators behavior. The vote they took a few moments ago, the vote they took tonight, 60vote threshold on that. They knew they wouldnt get anywhere near 60 votes. That was a free spin as to who voted on it. Senator mccain voted yes, voted with Mitch Mcconnell on that. That is not what it sounded like he was going to do when he gave that moving speech today. So i dont know what we do with that. This was a vote to basically override the budget rules on the senate floor to allow them to have proceed a vote on this bill that is the mcconnell bill plus the cruz eedition to the mcconnell deal and the port addition to that. There is the most generous concepts advanced by the republicans. And they lost ten republicans on this vote. Yeah, and even with the generous provisions, kind of like, i dont know,
Nominations today. Congratulations on your emmy nomination, lawrence. One little one. Two, and two at 8 wi 00. Great night it embarrasses me to talk about that stuff. You are much bet are. John mccain is now this, i dont know, this mysterious figure. He gave a speech this afternoon that indicated he couldnt vote for anything that Mitch Mcconnell would bring to the floor. But tonight he did vote with mcconnell but you could argue that it was only a procedural vote, that it wasnt technically on the substance. But what he meant personally about how he is going to conduct himself in the Health Care Votes is not as clear as it sounded this afternoon. No. I think thats the right way it put it. I think that speech sort of stood alone. Im not sure that it was even a predictor of his own behavior, let alone of any other republican senators behavior. The vote they took a few moments ago, the vote they took tonight, 60vote threshold on that. They knew they wouldnt get anywhere near 60 votes. That
Private dinner with the president and sean hannity and others was leaked. He suspected Reince Priebus. He was also angry about what he thought was a leak of his Financial Disclosure form which actually is meant for public disclosure. Ryan lizza of the new yorker got a call from scaramucci and scaramucci used language so barnyard we cant repeat some of it. Here is some of what we can show you and tell you about. Scaramucci says quote reince is an exploitive par noik that was a new one for me. Hed what i want to do is i want to expletive kill all the leakers appear. And i want to get the president s agenda on track so we can succeed for the American People. Then he switched to referring to himself in the third person quote. The swamp will not defeat him. Theyre trying to resist me but its not going to work. Ive done nothing wrong on Financial Disclosures. Theyre going to have to go expletive themselves. What we cant repeat is what he said about steve bannon which is if true would make ba
55 say hes doing a poor job of keeping his promises. And when asked about trump as a u niert, not a divider, 30 said that characterization applies to trump. Notably, 65 say it does not. Across this country from virginia on west to washington state, voters rejected the gop in many with a i see and in many places last night. Many of them with the president on their mind as they cast their ballot. In fact, a full third of the electric tort in virginia told exit pollsters they were voting to send a message. Its put trump and his allies in a posture weve not seen much before, defense. Tonight in michigan steve bannon tried to explain the loss, especially the sweep in virginia at a gop dinner there. Despite the losing Virginia Republican candidate gillespies move closer to trump, bannon said the message is still a winner. So virginia is a blue state. Now, one of the things about the gillespie shows is you cant fake the trump agenda. No. You have to go all in. And this agenda is a winning age
