Fake news. So bob casey doesnt mind ms13 coming in. These are the slicers. They slice people up. They want me to walk up and go like this. President trump tries to

Chris Matthews debates hot political issues with politicians, newsmakers and Washington leaders. Top officials gathered in front of the cameras to issue a strong message. Russia is targeted the United States and our democracy is at stake. The Trump Administration was finally speaking with one voice. Well, actually, it is not. Just six hours after the president conference, calling it a hoax. Boosti boasting of his personal relationship with vladimir putin. The difference between the president and his administration couldnt have been clearer. We continue to see a pervasive messaging campaign by russia to try to weaken, and divide the United States.

Desantis has been pro actsive aligning himself with trump. To put it mildly. So of course hes going to do that. On fox every night talking about it. Hes going to be somebody that thinks this is a great, great boost. There are a lot of republicans that are squeamish about the thing the president says that dont line up what they are doing and saying. Florida is a good experiment for this. I was covering the governors race. This is a great experiment. Look, i think in the general election, trump is more of a negative than he is a positive.
