understand that. it s hard to evenp imagine. and down here the same thing. so i want to thank everybody. you guys, i don t want to see you next week at another place. yes, sir, mr. president. we ve seen you enough. i just want to thank everybody, the first responders, on behalf of myself, our vice president, melania really wanted to be with us, she s really it s really touched her heart what s gone on. we ve seen the devastation and we will see more of it now, unfortunately, and i have to say that your governor, where is our governor here? rick scott. [ applause ] the job he s done is incredible. and i guess i ve been very lucky because, you know, you have a great governor of texas, a great governor in florida, the job that rick has done is being talked about all over and to think that i must say,
yeah. this is the third visit he s made to a hurricane-ravaged area in the past three weeks. the back-to-back historic hurricanes. the president touching down moments ago at ft. myers, being accompanied by the first lady melania trump. he stepped off the plane and gave that press conference. hang on. let s listen in once again. the marines, everybody, the navy, the job that everybody has done, is incredible. and i know you re also in the process, but to think of the incredible power of that storm and while people unfortunately passed, it was such a small number that nobody would have people thought thousands and thousands of people may have their lives ended and the number is a very small number which is a great tribute to you. also in the fact that i know in the case of fema and the case of coast guard, the job you ve done in saving people and saving lives as an example, in harvey, in texas, we talked over 16,000 lives, and nobody would even
to the old system but most people seem to think that the west wing management was chaotic enough that this was a better system. leland: we don t know if the president read that piece but he didn t tweet general john kelly is doing a great job as chief of staff, i could not be more happy and impressed as this administration continues to get things done at a record clip. he read the piece. leland: that s the interpretation and the read, a lot more of this on media buzz. thank you. molly: the impact of harvey being felt way beyond the states that storm actually hit, gas prices spiking across the country has high waters shut down refineries. recovery efforts began in texas and it will be a costly experience for many. a live report on that process as people in houston start to pick up the pieces.
about going after this issue with heart, what actions do you think the president will be taking? i think the president will end it daca and i think that is not only immoral but not a very smart decision. it s hard to hear someone say the president s going to do this with compassion while talking about him attempting to remove millions of americans who were brought here by their parents as children. daca requires that any individual has to either have a job or be in school. these aren t people who are out breaking laws, they are trying to get an education, contributing to the country as a whole. this isn t just me saying this, this is paul ryan saying this, his own energy secretary rick perry saying to remove these individuals would be heartless so i hope the president changes heads mind. molly: to some extent the attention has turned to congres congress. do you think congress will be
he would say trump senior aides feel the need to distance themselves from him without fear of consequences. the question is, which one of those at two should reviews this in? the president could fire them all tomorrow if you wanted it to you but donald trump doesn t actually like firing people is much as the image on the apprentice might make the public believe. i think he is giving them space, particularly in the wake of charlottesville to disagree with him somewhat and if he thinks they are doing a good job they can continue. the mainstream media consensus say this is insubordination, he has to get rid of them, it shows how weak he is that he s allowing them to continue, that seems to be the media s take my view is the president doesn t have to prove his toughness to anybody and if he doesn t think they re doing a good job, he should dump them but if he thinks james mattis and rex tillerson are doing good
