it. mitt romney certainly diplomat didn t rush to embrace it. so the president took action. i want to talk about what has been the prevailing conventional wisdom inside the beltway, and take it for what you will. but there has been a lot of criticism as to how the chain has been run in chicago. i want to talk about what mark halperin said on meet the press. the president is searching for a message, a restart, reframing. he he s done that before. i suspect he ll have to do it again. he s not settled on what he wants to talk about, a second term or simply what s wrong with mitt romney. i m going to couple that with what al hunt has talked about in bloomberg. the title of the article that came out yesterday, the obama campaign needs an intervention. the central challenge the other democratic consultants say is a compelling narrative for the president and campaign which they describe as unusually insular and arrogant. he went on to say the campaign
issue in a generation. but ben talk about the politics here. is it a tough, tight rope line for you to walk when you re trying to appeal to working class voters in places like ohio and pennsylvania and then trying to get the latino vote in places like nevada and florida? do you worry this move, especially by executive order, will alien ate any of those independents in the ohio and pennsylvania states that could be upset about this? well, the president did this because it makes our immigration policy more fair. and more just. and i think people realize that these are young people who were brought to this country through no fault of their own. we were determined that they re not criminals, and they pose no threat to our society. in fact, they want to contribute to our society. and boost our economy. to work here in the united states. it s not a permanent fix. congress needs to take action on that front. we did see one republican senator sponsor legislation on this. but the republican
their powers. some might say haley barbour didn t rush to do this. he has been governor since 04. are you being a bit generous in that statement? he could have acted sooner? you know, the reality is when you re on this side of the table, you are used to pushing governors over and over again and being bitterly disappointed at the very end. whenever you have a governor, like patterson did last week in the john white case. even at the very end of the term, you celebrate but when off governor who still has a year left and seriously thinking about running for president who comes out and does something which is, you know, going to be controversial in some places, unfortunately because there really should be no controversy in this case, you just got to call it for what it is and say it s the right thing and took courage to do it. okay, ben, is this happening now? i have to ask the question,

i don t care if congress does it or not. i m writing it out myself. reporter: the president doubling down on his criticism of broward county deputies who didn t rush into the school to save lives. the way they performed was frankly disgusting. reporter: mr. trump even going so far as to suggest he would have acted even if he didn t have a gun. i really believe i d run in even if i didn t have a weapon. i think most of the people in this room would have done that, too, because i know most of you. the way they performed was really a disgrace. reporter: the president making the argument again forearming teachers. they don t love the students, they don t know the students. the teachers love the students and want to protect those students. reporter: washington state s democratic governor rejects that idea. educators should educate and should not be foisted upon this responsibility of packing heat in first grade classes. i just suggest we need a little less tweeting, a little
