Meeting with Republican Leadership to turn all of those words and promises into actual action. Were just here to start the process. It begins as of now and we think were going to have tremendous success. David purdue was in that meeting and hes out front tonight im going to speak with him i want to begin with jim acosta he is at the white house and uncharacteristically to say the least, quiet day for President Trump. Thats right pu white house officials from the president on down are still slating after Last Nights Speech. He was meet
Tonight. This is one of the backward and nasty Executive Orders the president has issued. Also today thousands of antiabortion protesters gathered in washington for the annual march for life. Mike pence told the crowd the president would announce a Supreme Court nominee soon and trump hinted strongly at the person hes choosing. The person i pick will be a big, big i think people are going to love it. I think evangelicals, christians will love my pick. And well be represented very fairly. Jeff zeleny begins our coverage tonight out front at the white house. Trump signing a flurry of Executive Orders this week, up to 14, but these on immigration, do they really have teeth . Reporter indeed they do. The ones that he signed late today, they do sort of play out exactly what he talked about in the campaign, Extreme Vetting. It should come as no surprise, but they are going at the heart
of refugees coming here to the country, particularly syrian refugees. The white house just moments ago actu
Smoking crack. He got locked up for that. The mayor has passed. The cost of the statue. 300,000. So Thomas Jefferson statue no, marion barry statue, yes. Moving on. This week a muslim terrorist mowed down 8 people in his van in New York City. Thankfully an nypd officer shot him. And he asked to fly and isis flag in his hospital room. The president tweeted this. The Wall Street Journal reporter took issue with the president s call for the Death Penalty. The unifying threat is the broader politics of donald trump, the ethnocentric nationalism. He did not react this way when a
white person shot dozens of people in las vegas. He did not come and say we have to do an immediate policy change, we need to give this guy the Death Penalty. Jesse Donald Trump Didnt Call for the Death Penalty because the las vegas short killed himself. Malcolm nance says this after the nypd attack. What you are seeing is not islam. None of this is condoned including the sacrificing and getting yourself killed at t
Republicans. There will be survivors of the parkland massacre, meaning the kids who hid in a closet and watched their best friends die. And there will be the National Rife a Rifle Association all in one room. Youve covered these after a horrible tragedy, they retreat and dig in and dont engage with each other. But tonight thats not going to be possible. Everybody is going to be on this one stage together. They have to confront the students who are demanding answers. They are coming with suggestions and demands. And the politicians both democrat and republican have to hear them. So that starts again at 9 00 tonight here. Alison, its going to be emotional night. As you noted you were there one week ago tonight following the shooting. Whats the one moment youll be looking for . Reporter well, i just spoke to these three young women,
juniors at Douglas High School, part of a drama troop, and they came here not actually with any sort of political message or any sort of demands. They came he
Himself of south korea is not in any way suggesting that trump should just accept. Be cautious, first engage at a lower level and trump is like no, i want to do it, lets announce it now. The south koreans end up making the announcement in the driveway in front of the white house. On every level, this is unprecedented, and yet on every level, this is par for the course and what we should expect with President Trump. Normally presumably you would have had the president say, lets think about it. Sure. Lets convene a National Security council meeting. Even president moon jaein, the south korean president all for engagement and negotiation, offered to meet with kim jongun he said if the continues are right, let me think about this. Ill get back to you. President trump normal situation should have done convene a meeting and talk about pros and cons of having such a Summit Meeting with kim jongun, and then coordinate the policy and
then announce it. So stanley, whats wrong with trying this .
