though. i hope that the reset you re talking about is possible. i m not convinced actually given the dynamics of what we re going through. mika, it s probably not possible, but we ve got to try. we have got to try. we ve got to keep trying. just like after i think it was gabby giffords, members of the house, republicans sat next to democrats, democrats sat next to republicans. that s an important message to send out to americans, to those that don t have the guardrails, that are detached from reality to not think that even members of congress see the other side as the enemy. that s a start. we re going to be talking to members of congress who were there yesterday at the practice when the shooting happened throughout the show this morning along with former democratic congressman harold ford, junior, we have veteran columnist and msnbc contributor mike barnicle, senior political for nbc news and msnbc, mark halperin,
denede ne defections of more than two in the senate. a lot of efforts in the coming months will be a critical period as well. it sure will be, manu raju, thank you for that. senior political contributor michael nutter, the former democratic mayor of philadelphia, and beverly hallberg, a conservative strategist attending cpac. beverly, you heard john boehner say that, basically it s not going to happen, and you just heard donald trump. he was talking about we re going to make it better. how is that any different than the repair and rebrand that boehner is talking about? well, i do think it takes time. you talked about march being a pivotal month. it no doubt will be. but if you talk to anyone here at cpac, i think they would agree with me, there is a reason that john boehner is no longer speaker of the house, and that is because he didn t want to lead the republican party.
