what i ve done i have absolute right to do what i want to do with the justice department. but for purposes of hopefully thinking i m going to be treated fairly i ve stayed uninvolved with this particular matter. he also moved on to the congressional agenda claiming democrats could have gotten a better deal with republicans had they negotiated and engaged on the issue and tweeted and discussed daca, those brought to the united states illegally as children. he says the democrats aren t going to continue that daca policy to protect the dreamers if they don t agree to deal on the wall, on the southern border and end chain migration. he also talked about his own foreign policy knowledge, command of it. he says i know the details of taxes better than anybody. better than the greatest cpa. i know the details of healthcare better than most, better than most. if i didn t, i couldn t have talked all these people only to be rejected.
france, 14%. this is a president who is batting zero when it comes to our european allies. clearly these stats won t be in the folder he gets every day. that point is well taken. when you have your 36-year-old daughter and son-in-law as your conciliatories speaking on your behalf and they have zero foreign policy knowledge, when you look at his cabinet, i like you, let s make you a cabinet member. these are people who have no experience whatsoever. this is a really dangerous position. this is a position that democrats warned us about before the election. i think this obsession with obama is, let s just be clear. donald trump race baited obama for seven years, right? the birth certificate stuff. we re not even going to talk about how he race baited the central park five. he has a long history of it. he thought this 45-year-old man
