donald trump said we want to build the wall. as soon as i said i wanted to build a wall, they were all against it. tammy: all righty. dan bongino is a former secret service agent and the author of spy gate: the attempted sabotage of donald j. trump. robin biro is a former regional campaign director for barack obama and they both join us now. welcome aboard, you guys. thanks for joining me. thank you. tammy: dan, i got to say to you, this is funny to watch, of course, the democrats, the doom and gloom. we ve just moved to the christmas holidays. the sky is falling. we are looking for grubs and puddles of water to eat and drink through the shutdown. do you think that this kind ofl complaint is really changing the point of view of the american people about what is really happening in washington and what matters when it comes to national security versus a negotiation to get what we need for that were wall? no, i don t think the media is changing one mind out there, tammy. very, v
thousand mile treks with their children. no one should be accepting this environment as being acceptable or something that should be encouraged. we really need to have a system that stops that. you would agree? absolutely. and we need comprehensive immigration reform. and i want to clearly say that my party can absolutely not afford to be labeled as the party that embraces open borders, which is why we are trying to say there are other things that we need in addition to at least, at a minimum, a stronger fence. tammy: robin, nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, all they are saying is, he s never going to get the wall, he s never going to get it. they seem to be doubling down on an argument that this is the problem with liberals often, perhaps not a you, but liberals to a great deal, that they don t know when to stop. they misjudged the kavanaugh dynamic. they are misjudging this. and the american people want solutions. this is what they re looking for. president trump is a man of action.
tammy: good conversation there. the democratic party could have plenty candidates for president next year but it has no clear leader. what is the party s future? that is coming up next. party s future? that is coming up next. that is coming up next.
be fired, there are ways the attorney general can make this end. dan, think you for joining us again. i appreciate it. this is on christmas eve, you might recall,i president trump surprised kids calling the norad santa tracker by having a fewus calls rerouted to the white house. he had one amusing exchange over a 7-year-old girl about whether she still believes y in santa. are you still a believer in santa? because at seven, it s marginal, right? [laughs] well, you just enjoy yourself. tammy: all right. critics took the opportunity to accuse trump of ruining the magicigok of christmas for the little girl. they effectively accused him of being the grinch, trying to cancel christmas. afterwards, the 7-year-old told the newspaper she does not know what the word marginal means ana she still believes in santa. her parents loved the phone call. we hope she never stops believing in santa. i haven t. that s about it for now. thank you so much for joining us tonight. tune in each night at
i think you would agree with the sound of that crowd out there that having a visit from the commander in chief sure is a lifter of morale. it seems like it went very well. no doubt about it. christmas time, great to hear from your boss. tammy: indeed. mike, thank you very much. when the president returns to washington, he ll be comingg back to a city sharply divided over his proposed border wall. the government remains in partial shutdown as trump says he will not sign pending legislation until he receives money to begin the wall on the mexican border. democrats continue to howl with rage against the president. no democrat has called for shutting the government down. we are all working to avoid it. the president seems to relish it. it s a governing crisis. we better face the reality. this is a dangerous time. this is not just another government shutdown. t donald trump is on track to be the worst president in modern times. and perhaps ever. the days of waiting for this presid
