president trump s re-election. i m sure if she decides to run, which i think the president states he doesn t feel she will, i m sure she will have help with that. is she qualified? look, i disagree very much on her policies. is she a successful individual? absolutely. but in terms of where she stands on a number of positions, i would find a lot of problems with that. but that would be something she would have to determine and layout if she made a decision to run. and what that campaign would look like. michael? can i ask just a question about phase 2 of the immigration issue as the president laid it out today. so once you get past the daca debate and some of these other issues, senator lindsey graham seemed to lay on the table the idea of something that senator graham supports which is comprehensive plan that would include a path to citizenship for all 11 or 12 million, however many that are illegally in this country. and the president seemed to respond let s do it, go for it, so
president told senator feinstein he would accept a clean daca bill. apparently his definition is not the same or that s what sarah huckabee sanders just said. right. she was asked what does the clean daca bill look like? at the end it was close loop holes. all this language and everyone is left wondering does that include a wall or would they be able to do this clean daca? part of the negotiating technique. all part of the deal. david drucker to you, the president earlier in the meeting as he said i ll take the heat, he said he ll sign whatever they give him. during the meeting ta couple of republicans who seemed to be reminding him, mr. president, you are the guy in the driver s seat. then we follow your lead. you know, interesting thing about, and this is what i did think, brooke, that was interesting about this extended cover wage
reform. if you want to take it a step further, i ll have to rely on you, you may complicate it, and you may delay daca somewhat. i don t want to do that. you said at the outset we need to phase this. i think the first phase is we have a deadline looming and a lot of lives hanging. we can agree on some very fundamental and important things together on border security, on chain, on future of diversity visa, comprehensive though i worked on it for six months, with michael bennett and a number of, bob mendez, and schumer and mccain and jeff flake, and it took us six months to put it together. we don t have six months for the daca. so, you know, just again put an extraordinarily look at how politic political sausage is made s the fact cameras in there, consider that. but on the wall, just continuing our conversation, maria santana,
correct. border security is more than the wall. and about the report that mueller is expecting to be sitting down with the president in the coming weeks. what do have you to el us about that? the same thing that we ve said many times before. that the white house is not going to comment on communications with the special counsel out of respect for the special counsel and process. but we ll continue to be in full cooperation with them. charley? thank you, sarah. a lot of immigration critics believe that daca deal by very nature is considered to be amnesty. does the white house believe that that is amnesty? no. and we believe that this is an important part of the process. and again one that we are committed to finding a solution for. steve? yes, sarah. has president trump been briefed by president moon on the negotiations that the south korean had with the north koreans? and what would this white house like to see as the next steps from pyeongchang? i think certainly the n
in u.s. interests, he said he need needed action from american allies. has he seen enough of that action? that the president might be willing to not reimpose sanctions. we haven t made a final decision on that. and we certainly will in the coming days and make sure, once again, you are some of the first to know. just to be clear, the president wants a bill of love, why doesn t he drop the demand for border wall and deal with the dreamers alone immediately? because you have to have a full solution to this problem. you have to make sure that you are taking every step in border security and you want to make sure that if you fix things on daca, you don t create and exacerbate the problem and have to deal with it again in a year. the president wants to make sure we have a clean solution to that front. what does a president say to 24-year-old like jesus from
