guest on the the today show show tomorrow morning. and david jolly, former republican congressman from florida. gentlemen, welcome. good to be with you, katy. 20 minutes ago, the president tweeted about this book. going to make michael wolff happy with continuing book sales. i interviewed i never spoke to him for book, full of lies, misrepresentations and sources that don t exist. look at this guy s past and watch what happens to him and sloppy steve. he s got a new nickname. we should also presidents the white house. even though he authorized no access, he was still there. he was there. and it should be noted if you re just cleared in for a member of the press into the white house, you don t have a hard pass, a permanent press core, you get a gray, temporary pass. he got a blue one, which means he had west wing access. he had access to parts of the building that normal reporters would not have, allowing him to hang out on the couch in the
to get it done. they think the changes or the people that i talk to, he s only been in office six months and eight months. you got to give him time. he s giving too much opposition in democrats and he s going to get it done. when you talk about those three things, steve, drama and chaos and suspense. those are the three things he wants and in a reality show. can you get legislation done in that. and to be clear, i agree with the framing on that. that s how i look at the presidency, too. i don t think when we meet with the presidency, this is not a presidency that s not moved that way. how much is he holding? i think part of his appeal to his basis not the concrete legislative achievement. it is not that i got tax reform done necessary. it is all of the posturing and
said again, hopefully he will reconsider not running and endorse him. it says before if he can cam pane for hem necessary. corker did not hold back on twitter. this was his steaming rebuttal. it is a sahame that the white house is becoming an adult daycare center. someone obviously missed their shift this morning. senator corker is a powerful senator here serving on a variety of items that the president will need him for. he has a lot of sways as well. he quotes, pick your fight which the president has not done in this case. jo joining me now, steve cornacki
but i wish he was a little tougher. we have our disagreements. they have a number of disdpre t disagreements on policies and styles of the two of them approach their jobs. it looks like while he may hang on for now is not for the long-term. i want to bring back my panel, steve cornacki, you have rex tillerson who have gone out there and said we need to have a conversation with the people of north korea. the president made it clear that he does not think conversations work. he then says all of these of ominous things that we just heard, only one thing will work, what is he talking about doing or is he talking about doing anything? the overwhelming suggestion is that he s thinking of military strike but what s so terrifying beyond the question of the strike itself is that this is being told by draft
since 2007 and jeff since 2013. a battle of these members in congress and bannon and high establishment of this republican party who wants to blow up the establishment and washington. this drain the swamp mentality that we are starting to see play out now, we ll see it ramp up in 2018, it could develop in 2020 where we see a split in the republican party. steve, do you see that even a real possibility here that s what could happen, you can see the president running as an independent? you do have a situation where it is kind of crazy that bob corker is sounding a lot like hillary clinton a year ago. the issue here, of the split of the republican party.
