it s going to be a reality, and we can expect a lot of pugilism of the sort you just showed right now. yeah. julia, there s a new york times op-ed which lays out why liberals are wrong to reject the president s immigration plan writing in part, quote, unlike his previous proposals this one would not reduce the total number of immigrants allowed in. by proposing no immigration cuts mr. trump has conceded the fundamental liberal premise america needs immigrants. it s only a question of how immigrants are selected and how. do you think democrats risk completely shutting this one down? i m not really sure. i think on this issue obviously the two parties are very dwieivd on how to go forward. and i think although there may be some potentially concessions in this i think the democrats are staunchly against the president. i think that s for purely political reasons at this point. the president has very much used immigration as a tool to really
tlaib and of exaggerator because the el cortez don t seem to be sorry not sorry about their comments. and over the weekend, they were equating these anti-semitic comments with islamophobia. so i don t see these individual women or the party at all to be very contrite about anti-semitic statements and that s what bothers me more than the op-ed which is pretty normal. i think had she started with this op-ed, wouldn t have had a storm that we had. that said, i think the fact that she talked about she was a refugee herself and being in a permanent state of refugee hood was fair and now you have to judge her going forward. she is one congresswoman who is getting away disproportionate amount of attention. a junior one at that who was a not particularly consequential yet in setting foreign policy. this was a mainstream piece as you said that was perhaps meant for rehabilitation for her reputation. we will see. there is nothing in here that i
i want to listen. i want to reach out and i want to do so in so instability. most of all, i want to be able as a democratic and progressive and a liberal to talk to the fox family. because they are americans. they care about the same issues and concerns that i have. dana: you safe you have been friends with sean hannity, tucker harel tucker carlson, me, and a cohost on the five when you ve filled in for ron williams. you are no stranger but one of the things you said in your op-ed which is interesting something your mom taught you as a little girl. you grew up in a big family. donna: i m the third of 9 children from a big catholic household and she used to tell me shut up, donna listen to your younger brothers and sisters or your older brothers and sisters periods of course, sometimes you have to take a step back and listen but most importantly, this is a critical period in the country. a time for stability, but most of all it is a time for openness. we are not going to get ahead
about policy. he just can t stand up and make the argument because heaven forbid anyone would question the self-appointed best and brightest. i think the thing about the mitt romney op-ed which bothered me was that he did it before he was even sworn in as a senator and was clearly an effort to elevate his own status in the senate as opposed to elevate the national discourse amounts what bothered me. i m fine with senators having policy differences with the president and making it known. i think they ve done a good job of that where he makes it known but the way that romney handled it and to do it in the manner which he did was clearly just to elevate it so the cameras followed him, he s the first person they go to for comment. that was the only reason he did it. also the reason the media makes a big deal about the departure for the white house is because the entire narrative of the media is that president trump is this buffoon who cannot govern or do the job and when you make such a
trump s character, when you take a look at peace is all about policy. he just can t stand up and make the argument because heaven forbid anyone would question the self-appointed best and brightest. i think the thing about the mitt romney op-ed which bothered me was that he did it before he was even sworn in as a senator and was clearly an effort to elevate his own status in the senate as opposed to elevate the national discourse amounts what bothered me. i m fine with senators having policy differences with the president and making it known. i think they ve done a good job of that where he makes it known but the way that romney handled it and to do it in the manner which he did was clearly just to elevate it so the cameras followed him, he s the first person they go to for comment. that was the only reason he did it. also the reason the media makes a big deal about the departure for the white house is because the entire narrative of the media is that president trump is this buffoon w
