credit for. and leaders laughing at our president as he criticized many nato members for not paying their fair share. it s written, thank you, neil, it s about the u.s.a. and disrespect shown to our president. ricky says only fox news lackeys like cavuto would be outraged. then you might want to take to shirley who writes, i m no fan of mr. trump, but i agree with you, neil. for these hypocrites that bemoan our president s lack of decorum, lack class of their own. don t worry about those that snicker behind your back or worry more what else they re doing behind your back. because say or laugh about donald trump. at least he s told these european phonies what he thought about them to their face. that might not be protocol but it was unprecedented and they ain t happy.
and the white house neil: now you ve unearthed a little battle behind the scenes here. but i don t disagree with that. i think the ways of washington represented by the power structure there, i m not condemning it, this president, i think, to wendy s point has said enough. i m going nuts here this. absolutely. i think that he needs to start having conversations with members of his own party and try to move things forward. right now we re getting bogged down neil: don t make the assumption he s not doing this. maybe the other stuff it is other stuff. he s still president of the united states. if he wants to have these conversations, it s within his power to do that. one of the biggest issues here, this white house at this point in time doesn t have anything legislatively successful under their belt. i think that s a revealing
and lie their way? hailed by u.s. media that liked their way than his way? a u.s. president that says out loud what other u.s. presidents have quietly implored behind closed doors. enough. you know that is donald trump s biggest sin. he dared to say enough. enough with hearing you bitch behind our backs. i m going to bitch right in front of your face. enough with my walking with you. i m taking a golf cart around staring at you. enough with my making nice in group photos. i m going to shove my way up there. snap the picture and call it a day with you. yes, that can be deemed, borush but no more than a handshake that is ridiculous and that makes the guy that initiated it foolish. no, the sin was not donald trump was the bill in the china shop. the sign is the bull that we
gop has done as recently as april. it shows some sense of naivety from the president. he doesn t need it right now because he has the numbers needed to move the votes forward. right now, mitch mcconnell said he s against it. he doesn t want to move this way. i m curious as to why the president neil: i was a little confused as well. the way things work under a budget reconciliation is all it takes is a simple majority. all the things the president wants to do, the republican s want to do, simple majority will do. what do you think the message was here? or does he want to fast forward an agenda that might includes other things? most of all, it was a react to mitch mcconnell saying that there should be less drama out of the white house. mr. mcconnell neil: did you just open up
business. you re going to get punched in the mouth. you have to be ready for that. the white house says they re being forced to fight with their hands behind their back because of this barrage of unnamed sources for the russian investigation. all of this happening on a day when we expected the white house communications director, mike dubke, would be the big story. in case you didn t hear this earlier today, he has acknowledged that he tendered his resignation a couple weeks ago but agreed to stay on in the international trip that the president took abroad through saudi arabia and italy and belgium. this leaves the president s team without a leader on the team that has been criticized for not doing enough to combat the russian stories. all this happening while we continue to see what happened with the jared kushner story. the white house says his attorneys are working on it and they re eager and willing to
