We simply do not trust each other anymore. What happens when bipartisanship backs dirty word and compromise gets punished. This is mtp daily and it starts right now. Good evening. I am chuck todd here in washington. A very busy day, for sure. Theres infighting, power struggles, and after just 77 days, there is a major shakeup in the president s orbit. Both in the west wing. It could have pro found implications. Aboard air force one, the president was asked about the state of his white house. And he told reporters he had already shaken things up adding, i think weve had one the of most successful 13 weeks in the history of the presidency. We should note he has been president for 11 weeks. The aapparent turmoil contradicts that. A bit of a civil war. Bannon reportedly threatened to quit over the demotion, a charge he is denying. Some in the president s otter are blaming bannon for the chaotic state of the white house. One person described it as a war between globalists. By the way, the t
We will keep out the gang member, criminals, drug and human traffickers that threaten our citizens and that threaten our security. [ applause ] any member of congress who opposes our plans on Border Security, and i know these folks did, is only empowering these deadly and dangerous threats and we will not put up with it and the public wont put up with it. This bill also includes Important Health care resources for our great coal miners who have not been treated well. But now theyre being treated very well and continues to make funding available so inner city children here right in the Nations Capital can go to the school of their choice. Choice is so important. After years of partisan bickering and grid lock, this bill is a clear win for the american people. We brought lawmakers together from both sides of the aisle to deliver a budget that funds the rebuilding of the United States military, makes historic investments in Border Security, and provides health care for our minors and Scho
President trump short on legislative wins, still claiming that he beats all his predecessors. We have signed more bills and im talking about through the legislature, than any president ever, for a while harry truman had us. Now i think we have everybody. I better say think, or they will give you a pinocchio. You wouldnt want those pinocchios. Good day, im Andrea Mitchell in washington where Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell is running out of options, falling back on a 2015 plan for a straight Obamacare Repeal now that the first two senate bills are dead. The Trump White House stunned by monday nights tweets from republican senators jerry motra and mike lee, minutes after the president wrapped up a dinner with senators who were already on board with the legislation. The president tweeting, pushing for full repeal, blaming democrats, calling on senators to let obamacare fail. Joining me now is casey hunt on capitol hill and Kristen Welker at the white house. Welcome, both. Casey, wh
Release, though he has chosen not to release it himself. Back to the hill it goes. The New York Times reporting, mr. Trump who had a brief window to block the memos disclosure on National Security grounds was expected to Tell Congress on friday that he had no sxokss would likely not request any material be redacted, according to a Senior Administration official. It would then be up to the House Intelligence Committee whose Republican Leaders have pushed for the release to make the document public. New reporting by the Washington Post gives us some insight into how the president arrived at that decision, that conclusion. According to the post, before he had even read it, trump became absolutely convinced of one thing. The memo needed to come out. That the president did not actually see the memo until wednesday afternoon, that would be yesterday, following committees monday vote to initiate its release. That was after the president was caught on a hot mike coming up the aisle after the s
Independents plunged over the last month dropping from 47 approval in august to just 31 today. And when it comes to trumps qualities, 32 say they are proud of him as president. The same percentage, less than onethird, see him as honest and trustworthy. Back in the q poll when asked whether they felt the president was honest, 32 of voters said yes. His lowest grade for honesty since he was elected. So, joe, theyre beginning not to believe him, whoever they are, the few americans left that would believe the lies and untruths well, you know, its important to remember that donald trump actually had very low honest and trustworthy numbers during the campaign, even in 2016 he was down, my gosh, in the low to mid 30s most of the time. He happens to be running against an opponent who had even lower honest and trustworthy numbers. So these numbers arent so inconsistent from where he was when he was running for president. But john heilman, there has been so much coming at the American Voters ove
