they had to find the ways to work with him. if you go in the 2020 elections, two democrats. peterson in michigan and jones in alabama. there is no motivation for the democrats. no pressure. we were talking about the $20 billion or more for the wall. and the deal was that you legalize dreamers here right now. president trump walked away from that and he wanted changes to the legal immigration status. you said people don t want the wall and chris says this is a stupid fight. let me show you what happened on the oval office ten days ago and what nancy pelosi said. watch. there are no votes in the house, majority of votes for a wall. if i needed the votes for the wall in the house, i d
the president needs the money for border security. thin there are the additional cars to pay down the line. look at the d.h.s. numbers. look at what happened at the border. 3800 known or suspected terrorists were stopped. 17,000 criminals were stopped. over 1,000 gang members were stopped. if we are not going to stop them at the border, we have to be prepared they are at the country. the local law enforcement will have to deal with it. you have to get money for them. the president wants to secure the border with a wall. but it s a brutal week for them. if they get 3800 terrorists through. it can t be 3800. i don t think we have 3800 people on the terrorist watch list. this is a fake stupid fight. it is insulting to the intelligence of any voter who pays. even a second of attention in a government that is running a $1 trillion deficit. we are fighting over the
difference between $1.6 billion and $5 billion. there is no wall. the wall is made of slats now. so the democrats say you can build walls if you don t call them walls. the republicans say you can build fences but you must call them walls. this is as dumb and unworthy as anything i have seen this congress or any congress do. the normal thing that humane, decent people would do is say you are at 1.6, you are at 5 billion, so 3.3 billion sounds good to me. it s so dumb. that is why i asked about a sweet spot. your party had control of the house. in senate you need 60 votes so it s nebulous. you are running both chambers. you didn t get the money. got to get the 60 votes in the senate. if legislation like saucen making we have a broken grinder at the moment. it s a preview of what we see next year.
judge s order. which brings us to today. when the supreme court sided with the ninth circuit and denied the trump administration request. that it be allowed to enforce the new policies immediately. the court was split 5-4 with chief justice john roberts casting the deciding vote. four justices granted the request to let the order go into effect, including the two justices he appointed to the supreme court. neil gorsuch and brett kavanaugh. now today s supreme court ruling is the second major blow to the president immigration policies just this week. on wednesday, a federal judge in wednesday struck down large portions of justice department policies that made it harder for immigrants to claim asylum because of the domestic or the gang violence. then, of course, there is a fight happening right now on capitol hill over funding for the president s border wall. so ed, he has two on immigration this week. we will see in the next few hours or days if he can get a win on his wall. ed? absol
it means that the government is going to shut down and they won t pass anything new. the question is how long is he going to stick to the position? the democrats feel like they have the upper hand. there was the house election. democrats won even though the immigration was front and center by almost nine points. polling on the wall right now is about 59% of the country doesn t want the wall. even though the base wants it. democrats say they have the upper hand. the question is what trump feels he can get pushing this forward. what do you think being part of the president s base. what did you find acceptable. it doesn t look like $5 billion for the wall will happen.
