specifically. what are we going to do? they have a weapon. they are clearly testing this over japan. what is our foreign policy here? let s be crystal clear here. 2018 is looming but the government will shut down west could go to war with north korea. we did not have a plan b. they re politicians. elections always on their mind. let me ask you on, some level, it is always the next election. i keep thinking back to next year in the election with paul ryan, a few weeks before election day had all of the republicans on the phone saying you can give this guy up. you can save yourself. those republican members of congress, not only did he win the election, he won 90% of the votes of republicans. they didn t think he could get anywhere near that.

i m stephanie ruhle. time for your morning primer, everything you need to know to start your day. we begin with president trump touring hurricane harvey damage in texas and louisiana tomorrow. details of the trip are still being finalized. unfortunately, we are watching another hurricane growing as it moves through the eastern atlantic. irma is a category 3 now and it may be a category 4 status by early next week. no word yet on whether the storm poses a threat to united states. russia is now reacting to u.s. government s decision to close the russian consulate in san francisco. sergey lavrov says the kremlin is preparing a, quite, tough response. and controversial figure and trump supporter milwaukee county sheriff david clark has resigned. clark had no details about his next job. and this one blows my mind. wells fargo fake account scandal is getting even bigger. the banking titan now admits hit may have opened as many as 3.5
