democrats efforts this time trying to use the issue, the courts and immigration, to motivate their base. democrats are not running on the courts, they re running on health care and the opioid crisis and they re running on all these other issues. they re following the virginia model much more than what chuck schumer is saying about this. there is a policy argument to point to these restrictions and say they make no sense. there are a lot of countries with major extremism problems that aren t on this list. you could actually make a national security counterargument. that s not going to motivate a ton of voters, i suspect, but they re turning out in better numbers because of judges. twitter is running on merrick garland, but democrats across the country are not running on the judges, and i don t think this changes that. he s meeting at the white house. he s talking about his victory with the travel ban from the supreme court. he s also talking about zero
means and what it will do in terms of dividing or excluding and king is is big because his part of the party is fundamental. ask him why he hasn t deleted thretweet. we ll be watching. thanks very much. cuomo prime time later tonight. 9:00 p.m. eastern only here on cnn. that s it for me. thanks for watching. erin burnett outfront starts right now. next, trump s victory lap. what s next after his major supreme court win today. and can democrats do anything to stop him? senator booker is outfront. plus, house speaker demands an apology from maxine waters. it s amazing how lacking any such demand has ever been from the speak whern it comes to the president and the president calls it a crisis on the southern border. one border town mayor though says it s anything but and that mayor is is our guest. let s go outfront. tonight, trump s travel ban.
these five original countries are predominantly muslim countries, there is a huge there is a lot more countries that have muslims. so clearly this wasn t directed just at religion is what the court said. again, we re waiting to hear from the president. he s in a meeting at the white house with members from capitol hill to discuss another immigration issue but he will talk about the travel ban. we ll bring you that momentarily. also reaction on capitol hill where this decision is as much a victory for one republican senator as it is for the president. it s a pill that treats psoriasis differently. with otezla, 75% clearer skin is achievable after just 4 months, . with reduced redness, thickness, and scaliness of plaques. and the otezla prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don t use if you re allergic to otezla. otezla may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting.
in the statement at and seizing a win and using it for the argument going forward that we know he want to make in this midterm election campaign that republicans are for stronger border, democrats are not, that s how he is framing it, quite simply. he s going to use that supreme court decision to amplify hi argument. thank you so much, jeff. jeffrey toobin, also i am struck as we re listening to the reactions here. the president s tweet from this morning, the statement from the white house, just how the administration and the white house had tied itself up in knotts for weeks and months to try to say this was not a travel ban, this is not a muslim ban. this is not what this was. the president is saying in his initial tweet, that s exactly what it is. the argument they may they kept insisting it s not directed
security or border. he goes on to say as long as i am president, i will defend the sovereignty, safety and security of the american people and fight for an immigration system that serves the national interests of the united states and i did citizens, our country will always be safe, secure and protected on my watch very interesting that he is seizing on this nair rho ruling, upholding the revised travel ban, revised satellite times. he, of course, is attacking the media in this statement, attacking democratic politicians. we should point out that many republican politicians as well, people throughout the government were alarmed by the early version of the travel ban. it had to be revised several times, but the president in this state seizing victory. there s no room for nuance here
