racism, bigotry and hate or they are going to be the party of fiscal conservatives or they are going to be the party of donald trump or they are going to continue down the path of being the party with no absolute core. i think they have neil: 6 out of 10 americans just general americans are polled on this subject of getting rid of i.c.e. and say no. on that issue alone, do you think that the democrats risk being out of step? number one, i think it is a bad policy stance for democrats to say we want to abolish i.c.e. i think that we have fallen for the republican party of fooling us to jump in the air when we should stay laser focused on the failure neil: many of your colleagues are not. there s a portion of our party that are not. neil: prominent members. these are people who thinking about 2020. here s what i will tell you neil: governor cuomo no, no, some have said we should look at retooling i.c.e., managing its effectiveness and
anyone else who comes along. my view has always been when the economy is good, the economy is not the issue. when the economy is bad, it is the issue. and so i think that in this coming november, again, the issue was going to be trump i think for the democratic party and they were pretty united around rallying people against trump. but now they are raising all these issues. we re going to abolish i.c.e. i mean that s the second line of defense to prevent an invasion of the united states and to kick out people who are criminals and child molesters, ms-13 if they get past the border patrol, who else is going to run them down if not i.c.e.? and you want to abolish that. again if the democrats move the issue away from trump to immigration and border control, then you are moving it on to turf where donald trump won the election in 2016.
how far does crystal geyser alpine spring water travel from its source to the bottle? less than a mile and a half. crystal geyser. always bottled at the mountain source. naturally. neil: all right. what is at the weekend protests? the weather is nice. you have a protest. this one is a little unusual, nothing to do with i.c.e., or tragically school shootings although it does have to do with shootings and violence in chicago. where thousands are gathering to say enough is enough. now because it is out of control, right now, a fox news correspondent in the middle of it all, matt, what are we looking at here? you are looking right now at the expressway on the city s south side. it is part of the i-90 and i-94
very difficult for them to oppose whoever the president puts forth. they will have to look their voters in the face going up to the midterm election in november and say i either supported or i opposed the president s nominee and you saw with gorsuch gorsuch, you saw a couple defections come that eventually put im put him across the finish line. neil: charlie, thank you very much. this has been a week of the protests, the woman who climbed the statue of liberty, all the run-ins cabinet members have had with protesters. sarah sanders being escorted out of a restaurant. the i.c.e. protests where democrats are claiming i.c.e. should be shut down and return to what it was before i.c.e. came around in 03. however they may be resonating with the party s base, some are beginning to wonder whether it s alienating the party from the public.
