a role is important. hopefully it gives us the opportunity to see how congress can come together, work together on an issue that was clearly a problem that both sides agreed on and accomplished something. i think this is a great stark contrast to the wall which is this is a policy position that years have been spent changing the minds of americans and of their elected officials to get such overwhelming support. three strikes you re out and stuff like that. he doesn t have he s not built that type of consensus on the wall. it will always be divisive. jamal, usually republicans complain they have too many good tv sets in prison, could they have bar bells they shouldn t have. they re not in there to make lighter sentences is not a big republican dream. that was true when they were mostly black and brown people from the cities that are going to jail. i think in the last few years, there are a lot of suburbanites, rural kids who are getting caught up in it and going to prisons.
not sufficient. and even if he can say maybe he didn t, maybe he didn t, the fact that he does not know with certainty is also troubling. he should have erred on the other side and said because i don t know, all bets are off. we re not having any dealings with the saudis until we get to the bottom of this. that is inherently problematic. i m sorry, steve. i wasn t asking you that. i said i hope donald trump was watching. i also was going to say, the other point is that i hope that when the democrats take over the house in january and well-meaning republicans step forward and they know they remember what we re really all about, that they hold donald trump to account for this. perhaps some of this information will be found in his tax returns. perhaps some of the business interests that he talked about today, that he doesn t have nobody asked him. maybe some of those things will come to light. somebody has something on this guy if he s willing to lay it all on the line for the saudis

as you and i have discussed and i say this kim jong-un craves relevance and recognition do you think the president would you say told to talk him up or doesn t know how in the past we have referred to this man. the president doesn t have a continuum on how he describes people. the greatest person who ever lives or the the worst. no in between. he doesn t have not capable of dap lowmatic language and to use restraint. maybe it has a positive effect. i don t know. we can t predict anything about kim. one thing we didn t prodisabilipredict this. his image changed radically in just a few months.
put in present these again close parentheses? got it. raw power. i just thought that was a little too trump at home look how quickly they did that. look how quickly. it was soft, alex. he d like to call in and dictate headline. who s the best? alex is the best on the team. we call him a-cord. we have a proper lower third. so now go ahead. we re returning to themes that animated his base, animated his own political career from the start because we don t have other things to talk about. he doesn t have an agenda for the hill. he doesn t have beyond this north korea summit coming up he doesn t have a foreign policy agenda he s pursuing so we re returning to themes that get
