negotiate. as vice president he put the bide em team together to negotiate. the democrats have done this every time. when president trump was in, nancy pelosi said you cannot pass a debt limit without having negotiations on spending. this is how it is happened all of the time before. the senator at the time, senator b biden, voted four times to raise the debt limit if they did something on the fiscal end and then when he voted it against it, he only voted against it thinking the economic changes didn t go far enough. so what has changed mr. president? you ve gone so fares you won t even negotiate to put america in debt? that is not how the leader of the free world should act. that is not how america wants to you act. you said at the very beginning we had to show you a plan, and not only did we show you a plan, we re the only ones to pass a plan. so i think it is up to you now, whether the economy goes in any trouble, it is you. because the republicans raised the debt limit. y

president makes some audacious, crazy comments about it and all we re saying is we should spend exactly what we spent four months ago. this president wants to spend more money than we did during covid. even though he would sign the bill that the pandemic is over, that they should keep the billion dollars that has not been spent. that is not the president s money and that is the taxpayer s money and we should pull them back and save them money because it wasn t spent. this is the first big vote of your speakership. you started off in a not ideal way. how far do you think the conference has gotten and what do you think that is your opinion. i don t think this is the first big significant vote. i think every week you could raise that same question. you raised the question whether i could even become speaker. we went 15 rounds, became speaker. and then you raised question could we pass 87,000 irs agents
you couldn t help but notice rather than touting his policies or his record, trump slamming desantis for perceiving disloyalty. i think trump recognizes that he has a base in the republican party that is basically satisfied with how he performed as president and that the risk is that desantis could make an argument that he could do it better or that he could win and trump can t. the core challenge facing republicans is in the pbs poll that mar is did for them this week. 63% of republican voters, wolf, said they wanted a second trump term even if he is found guilty of a crime. three quarters of independents, and three quarters of americans younger than 45, three quarters of voters of color and over 80% of whites with a college degree said they did not want a trump presidency if he is convicted of a crime. that is the dilemma. and in a single data point, the party wants to go one way
any legal rights that a company has to operate his own government or maintain special privileges not held by other businesses in their state. so, wolf. this is the latest escalation going on for 14 months now and now it is headed to the courts. i suspect there will be more down the road. thank you so much. let s discuss what is going on with senior political analyst ron brownstein and scott jennings former special assistant to george w. bush. ron, it is not every day that you see a republican governor locked in a protacted fight with his state s largest employer, right? right. look, i mean, this is really emblematic of the way ron desantis appears to have decided to run for president. you know, the video god made a fighter,ly fight every fight that donald trump does but he will not bring all of the baggage that he has. i am trumpism without trump.
