people don t switch very much. what do they do? other than just fold up the tent. i think there are things they can do. whether they are going to do them or not remains to be seen. are they going to deal with this bannon-ite, populist crazy wing of the party, get them out of the way and start to adopt policies that they say they re trying to help as opposed to helping corporations and rich people, which is what this tax bill does. did you hear what our friend tom cole said this weekend? no, i didn t see tom cole. tom cole actually came out and said man this bill didn t do what we said it would do for working class americans. that s the washington definition of a gaf. that s a fact. the tax bill is historically unpopular as well. the american public seems to have figured it out yet they re plunging they re going to pass the thing.
frankly, older white male base of the party. especially arizona, increasingly pn hispanic state. mccains and flakes of the world look at demography and think double down on sheriff joe political gaf in the long run. do we expect other also come out? i understand mitch mcconnell hasn t won his comment on this so far. he has been excellent. referring questions on this to the white house. conveniently. speaking at a kentucky republican event, he did not speak about this issue there. he has avoided most public comments about trump since that august 9th speech when he gave that rather mild criticism of trump, saying he excessed in
not mike pence al s fault. i believe he made a gaf, but he s part of a campaign and ticket to attack mexicans from day one that s outrageous. what s outrageous about it? what was the first thing the man said june 16th when he launched him campaign that mexicans were rapists. that s what you should find out rangeous. that s not what he said. for to you go on tv and say what everybody has seen for the last 16 months not to be true, makes you seem insane. that is what he says. the video is there, the transcript is there we know he said mexicans are rapists and some of good people, too. and that is the part you should be outraged by. not by me bringing it up. actually, he said that illegal immigrants were committing rape. he didn t say anything about the way that s not he didn t say mexicans were rapists. the transcript says when mexico sends its people they send over their worst
his base if he doesn t want to take a guy like that on. wanting trump to be p.c. or answer the right thing is wishful thinking. he s not a politician. that s his trump card. every time you people in the media think he made a gaf, he only reinforces our support of him. arguably, my favorite tweet is this one, pressidente trump said, you make some interesting points, ask some provocative questions. but you should smile more, michael. exude a little bit more warmth, that s all. i ll see you next week when i m with chris cuomo in my hometown of philadelphia, covering the arrival of pope francis.
bad news for him. is his campaign pinned? the state of iowa. i think a lot of people were looking at scott walker s iowa moment after the debate and hoping he was going to have a resurgence. it s hard to get any ground with trump in the airwaves. it s just almost it s almost impossible. and i think if anyone s waiting for the next gaf to sink his campaign, they re going to be waiting a long time. let me ask you, looking deeper inside the iowa poll. 55% of the republicans who watched the debate last thursday as dana pointed out. they said they re less comfortable with trump as a candidate after watching his performance. what are the odds that you think he might actually get the nomination? p. i think the odds that he gets the nomination are zero. but the odds that he creates even bigger problems for the republican brand are high. if you look at how rick santorum rerespondeded to the donald trump interview.
