tenor of the conversation going on for a long time around the president. susan collins was caught on a hot mike with jack reed obviously democrat, she a republican, there were some salacious comments she made about blake fahrenhold that challenged her to a duel. the other piece was back and forth about the budget which they completely dismissed not just the president s approach to politics but his basic knowledge of how things work in washington. i think for the most part there is a significant chunk of republicans who are watching what is happening at the white house with a mixture of horror and fear and they don t necessarily understand how that s going to impact them and that s paralyzing. for the most part republicans in the senate are there oftentimes as we witnessed in that exchange with what democrats are willing to say in public. yep. senate majority leader mcconnell in the well, lauded trump and his leadership around
susan collins was caught on a hot mike today talking to jack reid calling the proposal incredibly irresponsible. then they sealed to discuss president trump, at one point referencing the president s speech at the commissioning of the uss ford. i don t say that lightly and as a kind of a goofy guy. and you know, this thing, if we don t get a budget deal i know. we re going to be paralyzed. i know. i don t even think he knows that there is a bca or anything. he was down on the ford commissioning saying i want them to pass my budget. afterwards, senator collins
plan. he has a very important job at the white house. i hope he is successful for the country s sake because a lot of people are worried. likewise. watch the hot mike moment from two very respected u.s. senators. i think he s crazy. i m worried. i mean, i don t say that lightly, and as kind of a goofy guy. you know he can t this thing, he if we don t get a budget deal i know. we re going to be paralyzed. dod. i know. paralyzed. i don t even think he knows that there is a bca or anything. no. that was senators susan collins and senator reid caught on a hot mike. senator reed says i think he s crazy. senator collins said, i m worried. they both put out statements. senate collins saying she is worried about the budget and
reason why he is firing him. the fact he wanted sessions to ignore the rules. look, the only reason he can care about this recusal is because he obviously wanted sessions to inappropriately influence, maybe even quash the russia investigation. i think you would see a great chill. then the bigger question is, what would happen afterwards. what would the next a.g. nominee look like and would that person try to fire bob mueller. that s when it would get they damaging potentially. stay with us. when we come back it s subpoena time for paul manafort. the senate judiciary committee issuing its first subpoena for the president s former campaign chairman. also, the first message debacle. letting it rip on his former opponent and his glorious electoral victory in front of tens of thousands of boy scouts. caught on a hot mike. two respected u.s. senators and a democrat and republican say what many people fear. you won t want to miss this, believe me.
the american people can see what s going to happen to our health care system that is going to affect them and one-sixth of the american economy. it is all being done in secret. i agree with john mccain. there is something fundamentally wrong with a political system that cannot have this debate in public. all right. senator, i appreciate your time. thank you. thank you. outfront next, why president trump just can t quit hillary clinton. and senator susan collins caught on a hot mike. that s huge. and he i don t mean to be unkind, but he s so unattractive it s unbelievable. who is she talking about, and why? but they re different. it s nice to remove artificial ingredients. kind never had to. we choose real ingredients like almonds, peanuts and a drizzle of dark chocolate. give kind a try. shawn evans: it s 6 am.
