is very much over because let s be honest, it won t make its way out of the senate. the house is going to override the veto. the 12 republicans were blowing it up. that s not leader isship. these guys and women care about their re-election. that s true for all the republicans in the senate. that s where we re at. okay. it s pathetic. the republicans two weeks ago said that they were you know, going to vote against the president and then i don t know if he stood them up in front of an open grave and said he s going to push politically if they didn t change their minds. he will. ben sasse, thom tillis, cory gardner have a lot to answer for. they think they re protecting themselves in their primaries but they could be knocked off in the general election for having no principles and for reversing themselves. they know better and they re going to pay long-term. i bet they re going to hear you loud and clear. jonathan, rina, rick, thank you so much. happy birthday to your dad.
caucuses. he is someone than demonstrated a lot off political talent. to the point jacqueline was making, what s interesting about him is he s running on this message of unifying. he sort of wants to be channel this obamaesque unite, we re better than this, we re red and we re blue. but the reality of politics here is that democrats want to win and want to win the senate and want to hold the house and win the presidency. i think there s a conflict for him between his brand of i m going to unite people. you might be an independent or republican, but you can vote for me. you can trust me. and then the poll of the party which is that you can only get the things done you want to get done if the democrats win. that s an internal struggle for him and the party, as well. let s move to the president s veto. we had nancy pelosi influencing on friday that the chamber is definitely going to take this up in terms of vote to try to override the president s veto of a border wall resolution.
not going to go after her. i m not sure i agree with that. ivanka crossed a line in the last week. the lying that her father s engaged in as we all know has turned out to be contagious so she flat out lied when she said she didn t know anything about why she got a security clearance and why her husband got a security clearance. that wasn t true. and one of the things that s become clear in the last couple years is while trump as president gets away with lying, a lot of the people around him don t. now, did she lie under oath in that case? no, not that we know of. but now that democrats understand that she s a liar too, i think there are going to be consequences for her. i do want to get to something with rick though real quickly. i ve got to get to republican defections in the vote against the trump national emergency declaration. do you think that is a one off, rick, or do you think it s a
factor in some of these actions. democrats are speaking one way. republicans may offer another position. but ultimately, is it fair tore link the president specifically to this new zooe zealand attack? i found a companyeans to who believes in me.rt. i don t think tuck link a they look out for me. person s words and rhetoric to and they help me grow my career. specific incidents because that at comcast it s my job to constantly monitor our network, is person already held responsible for their own actions. prevent problems, and to help however, donald trump did run a provide the most reliable service possible. dee divisive campaign to get the presidency where he wanted to my name is tanya, divide america. i work at the network operations center for comcast. he s now governing in a way where he s trying to divide us we re working to make things simple, easy and awesome. rather than unify us. certainly he creates an atmosphere where hate crimes seem to be more allowed and that is somet
just once, twice, but three times this week alone on the yemen vote on the mueller report vote in the house, and of course, at some point, republicans begin to see there s no real cost to standing up to him. they re freer to do it in the future, as well on votes that might be more meaningful to him. in terms of getting anything done from congressry is problematic already this year, it does have an impact. do you thip this defection is bolstering more republicans to break with the president? we ll see. this was a bit of a safe vote for the republicans to break from the president because they knew he would veto it. they didn t have a choice but to call it so it had to come to a vote. they re pretty confident if not all but assured that it will die in the house and his veto will be upheld. it was sort of a very safe moment for republicans who wanted to put distance between them and the president to do soles because they weren t
