the house and the senate, this inability to sort of get things done. i mean, the goal originally behind having these 60 votes that are necessary or at least getting close to that is that you have a consensus because there isn t supposed to be a lot of politics involved, and by politics i mean the small p political aspects necessarily for a pick for the confirmation in the supreme court. and, you know, that s part of the job of the senate, is to reach this consensus. and things keep getting more and more and more polarized kelly: i think you and if they go this route, it s going to be ap even longer and harder process as you guyed were alluding to earlier for not just supreme court picks, but for a number of issues, getting anything done that s really going to help the american people. kelly: jessica, it appears to me that you have drilled down to the nub of this, and that s the polarization that we re seeing take place in the governance right there on capitol hill. and this is a
debtity, adolfo franco, and jessica ehrlich. thank you all for being here. the last time we talked, adolfo, i want to start off with you on this one, so more hope than belief. this is your guy. john mccain is saying that. what is your thought here? is russia the dividing point between congressional republicans and the white house, or will it be something more grass roots like the upcoming tax plan? no, i really think it depends how we approach this russia issue. i absolutely believe as senator mccain has said that there is a role for congress to investigate any type of espionage activities the russians have been involved in. i mean the hacking and so forth. we shoouldn t be surprised that they would be involved in gadha
i think that is smart move for any candidate in the united states. smart to play politics like that, really. anyone who is running and anyone who is running in the united states should be focused on the south. alabama and mississippi and all over. politics. you have to win votes, you have to win votes to win the election. that is what it is about. playing on people s motions. playing race card, jessica? race card that is not happening here. absolutely. martha: deneen, why do you say that deneen? why do you hold on, jessica. throws dialect out, any chance she gets because she is desperate right now. so she is trying to whip up emotions of black voters to drive them to the polls. democrats play on fear of voters. that is what they do. that is so opposite of case. that is why we have republicans doing in terms of every comment being made about immigration and everything else going on whether world international crisis or not.
taxes on everybody. yes. let me be very clear. if we re going to make public colleges and universities tuition-free, as i believe we have to do in the 21st century, yeah, we ll have a tax on wall street speculation. yes, we are going to ask trump and his billionaire friends to pay more in tax. what rate? yes we are going to end we ll come up with that rate but it will be a damn lot higher than it is right now. martha: wait till i m president, then i will tell you. deneen borelli, chief political correspondent for conservative review. fox news contributor. jessica ehrlich, former democratic congressional candidate and an attorney. welcome to both of you. he was hilariously spot-on. going on banks how they attached the pens to the desk so you can t steal them. in reality, it is his authenticity that has gotten bernie sanders so much attention and so much affection in some quarters, jessica, but when it
redistribution of wealth. it is not going to grow the economy. martha: that is the great thing about this whole election process because people get to listen to everything and decide what they think makes sense for the country going forward. so also, we re talking about hillary. we showed latest new hampshire poll. she is getting a little bit of guff in some quarters some say putting on a little bit of a southern accent when she was talking to a group down there. it goes to who is real, authentic thing. let s listen and get your thoughts. i remember after that election in 92, him saying to me, it is so much worse than they told us. so he had to roll up his sleeves and work hard and at the end of eight years we had 23 million new jobs, incomes were rising at the top, middle, working folks, poor people. martha: working foles, jessica. folks. i didn t hear a southern accent at all there. and as someone who grew up and went to school in the south i don t hear it at all.
