what the president offered was basically, you know, amnesty after about ten years to give security to our borders and to stop the visa lottery system, to end chain migration, all those things have been supported by chuck schumer and many of the democrats, not just supported, they voted for these things in the past, and you can just roll back on your old youtube videos and find many examples of that, and their voting records. why are they moving the football, like lucy with the football in the old peanuts cartoon. i start to believe the president when he says they don t care about solving the problem. we do. we want predictable immigration system, we want to get it done, willing to make compromises. the fact that the president went from 690,000 so-called daca recipients to extend that to 1.8 million i thought was a very generous offer. i thought it was reasonable. we have an issue that we have to deal with, and i think the president made clear that that s what we re willing to do and i
try to identify what is right and what is wrong. we keep pushing that line along with us. let s be clear. comey when he was asked those questions was not asking whether or not he wanted the job. he had the job. the fact that he went after mccabe and rosenstein for these loyalties, their job as fbi is to be loyal to the office of the president. not the individual. and for hip to ask those questions, that is why people are concerned because it does look like it was during the investigation of whether or not there was interference by russia. and it was during this thing, during this investigation that s ongoing that he asked these questions to insure if they were on his side, then they were basically going to be allowed to look the other way. is there obstruction of justice. it shows he s not done it once but three times. there s a pattern and people should be concerned. that is probably one of the reasons mueller keeps bringing people in. let me go to gene. we have a lot of evidence on
see strange voting records, voting against their party on certain things. the other thing that s striking about this, it s very clear that mcconnell has not figured out what happens next and that s why this vote clock has been kept open. that s right, lawrence, lawr. and i think mitch mcconnell is betting wrongly but betting the democrats will wear this vote. and he wants them to vote over and over again so he thinks this will look like the democrats fault. i want to go back to that shutdown. in the early part his approval rating went down. it was bad for the president. he won in the end because newt gingrich was such an idiot. if democrats play their cards right, if they strong with the
and now it s even worse. now it s not even talk. so they re not showing up for the meeting. steve: i m shocked they didn t show up. last time they got together with him, they got a great deal. brian: their message was simple. they don t like the president s tone. ainsley: what was so wrong with that? it s true though. they want illegal immigrants. they are weak on crime. they raise taxes they all would agree on that. their voting records prove that he says i don t see a deal. maybe we can get together and talk about it what s so offensive about that tweet? brian: it s provocative and part of the president negotiating. he is saying hey, this is what is on mile mind i m going to shoat american people. chuck schumer, if nothing else, has thick skin. he also knows president trump as well as anyone in washington. i m shocked he took this stance. listen. president trump made sure that today s meeting is nothing but a photo op. these issues are far too serious for these kinds of
the expression toast over the weekend. he is one of the two never trumpers. you have jeff fra jeff flake anb corker. what do they want? they want donald trump to go away. they have good conservative voting records. at least on most questions. but, you know, they have let their personal animosity of donald trump get in the way of good policies. we will see. they have been for tax cuts in the past. they are using the excuse that they don t want tax cuts to increase the deficit, steve. buff we all know as good reagan conservatives that tax cuts actually increase revenue to the government because people do more of the things that promote economic growth. steve: sure. you know, matt, jeff flake didn t hide his distaste for the president. he wrote a book about it? he stole barry goldwater s title and selling it on more liberal stations. kind of ironic. barry goldwater was the conservative standard bearer, it s a strange day. steve: then have you got true conservatives people who would li
