an analyst on their who used to work for the bush administration said that sticking up for trump is like hugging a suicide bomber. you would think after the kathy griffin thing, you stop using ices analogies in these situations. it seems like hyperbole is going on both sides and negativity has worked to a certain extent. when the president is speaking you probably should cover that, you re going to pay for it to the ratings and we saw that last night. tucker: extremism in the pursuit of trump is no voice, that s their view. during a speech last night, the present called for new laws to keep immigrants off welfare. is that a divisive, radical new proposal? or is it already a law? that started under bill clinton? we ll discuss thatoooo. you re searching for something. like the perfect deal. .on the perfect hotel. so wouldn t it be perfect if there was a single site where you could find the right hotel for you at the best price? there is.
