that was the context the president made the kphrepcommen? why is he not getting the benefit because of what he said in the past. if i were to list for you all the things he said about immigrants, how many would you own yourself and say i agree with him about that. most of the people coming from mexico are the drug dealers and africans live in huts and what kind of people live in hahaiti, what kind of hole it is. how many of those would you agree with? ion t think that s important. it is important. look at the content analysis. of course he has the right to say it. that s a specious argument. you think illegal immigrants are by and large bad that s not what the president
on not just on daca. yes, it s a bipartisan bill but gets everything done. it gets daca done. provisions for the military. it has stuff in there about chip and the community base health centers. the problem is republicans, mitch mcconnell is refusing to put the bill on the floor because donald trump is saying he might not sign it. i got your point. hold on. in fairness to mcconnell he said somethg that was very dangerous for him. he said ion t know what the president wants. if i knew, i wouldn t be spinning my wheels. true. durbin and graham do exactly what he asked. they come with a compromise bill two days after he asked for one. he sand bags them, according to durbin or gets bad advice according to graham and says this deal isn t good for me in a room of hard liners. what was that about? i think he was trying to say get your head in the game. if you really want to negotiate,
won t compromise on this issue. before we can talk about the dreamers, we have to secure the border and talk about immigration reform and get that resolved and then talk about a kind way to deal with our dreamers. wait a second, lawrence. you re saying that texas democrats don t want to support secure or borders? ion t know if texas democrats might be different. i think all democrats. all americans want to secure the border. who doesn t want to secure the border? the only way you can come up with that kind of argument is for you to create facts that don t exist. all americans want secure borders. start there. then they can fund the president s agenda. and my worry is there s a possibility that they ll get down this road. if they can t get to an agreement before the deadline runs out, that the democrats will be okay with having an issue to run on in the mid-terms. that wouldn t be good for
coming. the discussion that you just had was illuminating. that s what he s been doing all along and you see the results, the administration is not getting much done. ion t s much of a change om thain the coming months. josh green who wrote that book about bannon that really rocketed number one on amazon and has enjoyed a good run prior to the departure of mr. bannon, wrote about bannon on bloomberg today. before i ask you a question, i want to read you this bit headline. quote, the cost of bannon s failure to adapt from campaigning to governing became evident on friday. bannon on wednesday gave a rare interview to the american
all it matters is what did trump mean. and frankly i would argue comey s story of how he handed off to a third party to get the information out there makes no sense, and ion t believe that story at all. well, he candidly admitted he aked the memorandum. he leaked it. so i think that gave them an argument. but all of a sudden to trot out an attorney rather than let somebody from their communications office say here s the positive things that happened today, here s what gives us pause about comey i have a little sense here that maybe the progressives for all kinds of reasons don t like trump are a bit ahead of game here. my thought today watching all of comey s testimony which was a great portraiture of the president told me this is the kind of president is going to get in trouble because of the way he thinks he can rule the world. actually i thought it was a devastating day for the president. what he painted was not any one incident but a portrait of the way this guy operates,
