as he can, both substantively and stylistically and this is the ultimate stylistic controversy. he said a minute ago that it s just as american to protest as it is to pledge and that s what makes america hard. it s what makes america worth fighting for. do you think there is a direct line between the president has weaponized patriotism and tried to wrap that very american right to peacefully protest around something unpatriotic or our anti-troop? we got poll numbers that show people s sense of patriotism. is it an all time low? i do. i think you people believe in the country both as an ideal as a reality. we are the only country in the world founded on an idea, 250 years ago, what the founders were working towards. they didn t get there. we haven t gotten there yet. so they re working toward this
scripted. they wanted to see him just talk from his art. so a lot of what trump does is stylistic. i m a tough guy, not going to back down. we have a great piece from indiana our show got a full hour. and we have a great scene from indiana you get a sense of how devoted his base is and why they like him for precisely the things. it is interesting to see the turn in our political culture. i remember in 94 part of the national movement that took my pop out in 94 was the contract with america. new terrain was short because harshtrength is not the commodity whether reagan or bush or clinton. sweet strength winds up being the commodity that wins. not right now. it s interesting where it comes to mccain and those who covered
but what we learned after we got to know each other because we didn t know each other at all in the campaign and yeah, we had a lot of friction in our relationship. but we learned is we have a common agenda to agree on and we want to get it done and it will make a difference in people s lives and that is what we were elected to do. he got elected president, i got elected speaker and i think it is our job on behalf of the people we represent and the people of this nation to focus on their problems, get things done and make a big difference and that is what we re doing and that is what i m proud about. so i understand what you are saying, but obviously it is more than stylistic. it has to do you both have different visions of the republican party. you could come together on issues like repealing and replacing obamacare or tax cuts but in terms of the message of the republican party, you disagree and that has the deal you ve made to try to get these things done for the american peop
approved russian sanctions from this congress, bipartisan, overwhelming, hundreds of votes, more than 500 votes in favor of that. and at the same time, he doesn t even mention that russian threat in any real sense, and won t acknowledge the investigation that he is facing. understandably that. but the fact that he will not even agree with what his own cia is saying about russia is another indication he cannot deal with the reality of russia did with this election. he seems to feel that that is a threat to his own legitimacy, even though it does not necessarily mean that at all. he is the president of the united states. he was there at the podium today. i thought that by encouraging the applause, this is stylistic, by applauding himself and stopping at the end of every sentence and by the republicans jumping up, he slowed it down too much and made it seem even less trumpian than otherwise. chuck talks about maybe he should have ad-libbed it, and we know how effective he has been at rall
is what we have. we have results. we have the lowest unemployment in 17 years. we have a stock market thank you obama. including the low wage rate? okay. glad to hear you got that on record. low jobless rate. you have isis has lost 98% of its territory. you had the nato countries, allies, put in their fair share. moving to the baltics. putting russia on notice. you have serious negotiations in north korea. you have the strongest ally ever in israel. but with all of the list of accomplishments, why is the president still in the latest cnn poll at 40% approval? i think a stylistic. there is no question about it. and i think the organized left, the resistance, won t let it go. they are not getting out of the
