we have migrants dies in the rivers because of the policy of this administration. building walls. that is something that needs to stop. what do you need in el paso? what would help you the next few weeks, months? we are in a transition between mourning, reflection, and action. when i say that, it is because people is now in the stage of asking the question of why it has happened. we need to answer that question. sometimes the answer is very dramatic. i mean, when you realize that this shooter wasn t alone, it wasn t rhetoric. it was a hateful message coming from the white house. that needs to stop right now. fernando garcia, thank you for being with us today. we appreciate it. want to put up the names and faces of the people who were affected here in el paso at the walmart here. and leave you with that. again, look at the faces, look
trump hasn t spoken to the obamas or the clintons since around this time at his inauguration. jonathan, i saved this for you. what do you make of what we saw and how just was it? that s interesting, how just was it. president trump in that crowd was persona nongrat. a all of those people, particularly the democrats sitting there had been targeted for assassination by pipe bomb and when asked have you fall it had obamas or the clintons he said no, i ll pass. he s out there at rallies in the leadup to the midterm elections saying i want to prosecute hillary clinton. the people sitting there and he was trying to prosecutor. it wasn t rhetoric. no, it wasn t rhetoric. he was trying to do it so the idea the fact that the obamas reached their hands out to him to shake to shake his hand, they are living what they
reduced cost. challenge is it wasn t rhetoric, it was in the bill. a lot of people say they didn t sell it right or talk to the public. the reality is perhaps it was just the content itself that they didn t like. if you bring a bill to the floor that has 16%, 18% support nationally you shouldn t be surprised that it fails. it was bad idea. before i let you go i want to ask you about the president s claim of wire tapping. let me let you take a listen to another clip here. i ve been very clear there was no matter of fact i made very clear on this for many weeks now. there was no wire tapping of trump tower that didn t happen. it appears like this was all legal. okay. it looks like it was all legal surveillance from what i can tell. until we get the documents i won t know for sure. so with that said why is the president continuing to make these claims? because here s the problem. here s what we know, not only
now arrives the hour of action. it was vintage trump. the same themes he repeated again and again at rallies across the nation for 17 months. but today it wasn t rhetoric, it wasn t promises, it was policy. today s ceremony, however, has a very special meaning because today we are not merely transferring power from one administration to another or from one party to another, but we are transferring power from washington, d.c., and giving it back to you, the people. from the platform, donald trump moved inside the building where he took his first official actions. officially submitting the nominations for his cabinet secretary. he was approved today. [laughter]
years late and it is remarkable that we went a quarter of a century maintaining the burden. but this is a way of saying, we are done. bret: brit? i will just say this. because he has no public record in public life, we know less about this incoming president that i that i can think of ande had a long way to go before you can say we know what he is about. you look at what charles and laura have pointed out, they certainly pointed in one direction. you look at his cabinet appointments, one after another, particularly in foreign affairs, an entirely different direction. the rest of what he said, it is a complex picture, in some ways contradictory, a long way to go here, and i think it is foolish to climb out on any limbs that might be sought off when he turns out, as he has done for a year or more now, to be very different than we have understood it.
