whatever is behind his departure, the president certainly talked up his good friend carl on the campaign trail. carl endorsed me. watch our trade deal. it stwings china. i got carl. carl is supporting me. i have carl ready. killer. killer. i ll put him in charge of zion take china. trade with china. do me a favor, work it out. give each one a country. they ll make a great deal. i had the best negotiates in the world, carl icahn. the greatest negotiators read the art of the deal. no exit pollers said carl was the reason behind their vote. it s clear his validation was important to donald trump. just something to keep in mind in case over the next few days you hear the president say about mr. icahn, he joined later in the campaign but he s good guy.
. last thing before wechlgts after charlottesville a whole a lot of people abandoned donald trump this week. ceos from big business made history by abandoning a republican president. another panel on infrastructure fell apart before it was put together. along with a very important name to this president, carl icahn. he s resigned as special adviser to the president on regulatory reform. he insists he s gone because of a turf battle, not the normalization of hate groups. whatever is behind his departure, the president certainly talked up his good friend carl on the campaign trail. carl endorsed me. watch our trade deal. it stwings china.
worse. sandra: it does feel like the pressure is building to have the president say something more, kennedy, in your view does he need to say something more? kennedy: it s easier to get it wired to the first time around. not that difficult, does not matter if it is this administration nor a different administration. when you get it wrong the first time, you give your enemy so much fodder, and that s what the left was waiting for. they are waiting to tie him in any misstep with the latest broad and hateful ideology. and i don t think that the presidents had enough. i don t not think he was explicit. that s why when you hear the words from vice president pence and jeff sessions, they are condemning specifically white supremacists and the kkk, neo-nazis, that s appropriate. the president went after her on the campaign trail president obama and hillary clinton for not using radical islamic terror. you cannot confront something unless you name it. and this is another one of those times
counsel. ann: i don t think it should be the house. eric: i agree but my point was they are asking for something the american people have been asking for six months now. where is this special counsel on russia? ann: we don t need a special counsel. that s why we are paying at attorney general and thousands of lawyers at the department of justice. donald trump that he wouldn t go after hillary clinton. eric: hired by rod rosenstein and the special counsel to clinton. you need another want to go after the clinton s. eboni: ann makes an excellent point. president trump she had a tough election, we don t need to lock her up after chanting lock her up on the campaign trail. kat: that s the kind of thing we see often. he said we will let it go, now he says why aren t we investigating her. all of these people, if you ve been paying attention, you look at this and say yeah, they was like they got away with doing something wrong.
that s your job. what did mcconnell say about the now dead health care bill in the senate? what next. this is by any measure a stunning defeat for the republicans. they cell the white house, the both houses of congress. president trump on the campaign trail last year said night after night, day one of my administration we will repeal and replace obamacare. tonight in his statement mitch mcconnell says in so many words, the dream of immediately repealing and replacing is dead. so now they have to move forward. they re saying just repeal. a plan that they was raised months ago and discounted being unreal ifrtic unpopular. the president seems to want this. mitch! connell saying let s move forward. there is no guarantee it s not clear they have enough votes for the motion to proceed. they would need some of the republican senators who said no to sign on to the idea of repealing obamacare without immediate replacement which some believe would plunge the insurance markets into chaos. so
