Phillip brucker said that the north korea Breakthrough Potential upped the stakes on the mike pompphaoeubmike pompeo. They may be playing with the one opening we have with north korea. Do you agree or disagree with rucker in. Heidi heitcamp got on or board with his confirmation. It will be close. Theres some sense there is an issue where if you oppose pompeo you open yourself up to attacks. Is and some of these red states is not supporting the president on Foreign Policy during this key moment. A lot of people a lot of democrats were forced on thursday to grudgingly acknowledge sort of admiration or respect for pompeo going to meet with kim jongun over easter. It didnt move a lot of their votes. As you saw a bunch of the democrats on the Senate Foreign realizes committee, they still had to reiterate their
opposition is. Anna palmer from politico, what do you think is is the story of the week . I think one of the most interesting stories is u. N. Ambassador nikki haley asserting herself
tillis, graham have legislation out. that will help protect mueller. i don t see that going anywhere. mitch mccouple threw cold water on that this week. it remains status quo. all right. i ll be back with the panel on the most important person not named trump this week. stay with us. your hair is so soft! did you use head and shoulders two in one? i did mom. wanna try it? yes. it intensely moisturizes your hair and scalp and keeps you flake free. manolo?
partisan interests or both for republican leaders house speaker paul ryan, senate majority leader mitch mccouple, senate majority whip john cornyn vice chair map of the senate republican to remain silent is to be complicit. these men could tomorrow end this nonsense of secret societies, phony memos and missing text messages. instead they are allowing fox news personalities, the president and loose cannons such as house intelligent committee chairman devin nunes. listen, again, when you have liberal democrats having to defend the fbi, something that s really wrong, let me just say this to you and everybody else. we re going to need the fbi this afternoon, tomorrow. the fbi is trying to keep us safe from terrorism. if you create a situation where somebody knocks on the door and says i m from the fbi trying to find out what s going on and somebody goes, eh, you are part
there is not a lot of trust here. president trump very famously in a vulgar exchange more than ten days ago now rejected a strong bipartisan deal that would have moved us forward. if the president is not going to be constructive, we need him to stay out and let the senate be the senate and resolve it. he seems to be staying out of it. and republicans can rebuild some of that trust. we haven t seen him in three days. he has been tweeting to use a nuclear option. that s not going to happen if you talk to republicans. do you trust mitch mccouple when he said it is my intention to proceed on legislation that would address daca? he is saying keep the government open february 8th and past and i ll buy this. one of the challenges we have as a body, several members who are part of this negotiating group who famously had promises from leader mcconnell that certain things would happen.
of running as a bannon type candidate you have to pledge in advance publicly, as they have done, to get mitch mccouple out of majority leader. he has no reason to help roy moore or to go above is and beyond to save the seat. is we haven t seen the field jacket. he can read polls like everybody else. but we haven t seen him out there playing his populus warrior. the president wants to get the tax bill done. pop limp can wait. something to this that is interesting. you hear it from some people close to the president. wait a minute, you want to tell a guy who could actually win this race we re going to rig the rules so we can get him out of the race? what about democracy, all of these people hollering about authoritarian tactics. establishment tricks. now you use the tactics to get him out of there?
