Trump is already scrambling the map this year. In utah where the Mormon Electorate is especially unfavorable to trump his lead is down to 5. 5. Prompting the campaign to dispatch mike pence to Salt Lake City less than two weeks before the election to do damage control. Hes there tomorrow. Mitt romney himself a mormon won utah by 48 in 2012. Given trumps Polling Deficit his lack of ads it came as a surprise that according to the Washington Post trump has stopped holding highdollar fundraisers and relying on online donations which tend to be much smaller. Thats after Campaign Financial reports show more money spent than raised in the month of september. Reports add to growing speculation that donald trump is not in very deep psychological Sense Running to be president of the United States so much as hes running to build up a fan base for donald trump.

he s provided everything under the moon regarding health care. when he ran for president, from single payer to saying don t call it trumpcare. you have an obligation to put something forward. republicans never got past opposition to proposition. that s why we re in this problem. and now the question is will the president lead and try to come up with some bipartisan deal to at least fix the problems that exist in the bill. now the official position of the president of the united states says, not on my watch, not my problem. chris, you wrote a piece saying six months in, the president is teetering on the brink of disaster. that was the theme of it. how do you see this in terms of the role of health care in this six-month measure and what the president needs, and what is teetering, exactly? well, i think there is a number of things. the russia investigation has been a constant problem for him both in the way he s dealt with it and now in the investigation s special counsel ongoin
we re back, i m anxious to hear from my table what we just heard. we have a republican senator who stops in her tracks when asked if she will work with democrats, of course i will and two democratic senators, as long as you don t change anything about obamacare i m in. i m disgusted as an american, i was watching you try to navigate and get them to move an inch. it was disgusting coming out and watching mcconnell and thune and first thing out of their minds, we have to destroy obamacare and democrats and chuck schumer, we have to save obamacare. let s call this obama/trump care, that is literally the insanity in a childlike nature of this problem. it s a branding issue i don t think obamacare if you renamed it trumpcare. if you re donald trump and i have a simple piece of advice for him, he wants to be the outsider and radical. stand up, say i promise this
sarah huckabee sanders filling in for sean spicer today failed to embrace failed to actually call it trumpcare. i think that the one thing that you can be sure of is to never underestimate this president. i think he s shown time and time again when he s committed to something, it s going to get done. he s made no secret he s committed to reforming the health care system. you are going to see that process take place. we are not going to get ahead of the legislative process. we expect there to be some changes but we expect the principles and the main pillars of the health care bill as it exists now to remain the same. the fact that obamacare is simply unsustainable. democrats know that. republicans know that. the american people know that. we have to have change. that s what we are going to get. we fully anticipate that to take place. let s begin the hour with the white house reporter for the wall street journal carol lee. listening to when she was pressed on what sort of
that he was threatening to cut off. now he s saying he might pay them. they really would have a huge effect on obamacare, whatever he decides to do about them. he s got to get a deal on health care, and he s got to use leverage. if he can t work with the freedom caucus, he s got to get 40, 45, 50 democrats on board and 170, 180 republicans. that will mean not repealing it, right? they ll never get 40 republicans and 40 democrats, rather, for anything that the republicans would support. he s going to have to because health care is going to go under. maybe they don t call it obamacare, maybe they don t call it trumpcare, maybe they compromise. you don t think there s any chance that the freedom caucus, that obamacare 2.0 is better than obamacare 1.0? no. that would go against everything they promised their constituents
