and whether it's personal or not, it's not personal for me. >> let's check in with our reporter, cnn sara westwood and cnn's ryan nobles both in washington. sara, let's start with you. what can we expect to hear from the president? >> reporter: well, we expect president trump to lay out what would be his broadest offer yet, so far in this shutdown process, one that would involve him trading wall money, for some of the immigration reforms that democrats have been pursuing. this deal would involve the president holding firm at that demand for $5.7 billion in funding for his border wall, in exchange for a temporary renewal of protections for dreamers, those young undocumented immigrants, protected under daca, and an extension of temporary protected status for some immigrants that would allow those people to stay in the country. sources tell cnn that the president decided to make this announcement on saturday, because the white house wanted to project an image of progress after a week of escalating feud with speaker pelosi. so white house aides worked into the night last night, to try to have this proposal ready by saturday afternoon. and we're told vice president mike pence, jared kushner, acting chief of staff mick mulvaney all led efforts to get this proposal together. let's be clear, even help to the white house is expected to bill this as a compromise of sorts, it would not involve the president making any concession, just simply return to an existing idea in an effort to get the democrats to the table. >> isn't this a proposal that senator lindsey graham suggested way back am december? >> that's right. senator graham came to the white house in december to present this idea to president trump at the time. at the time he was not interested. over the past few weeks, president trump has been saying when he was asked about daca that he would prefer to wait until the courts resolve earlier attempts to remove daca. let's take a step back. even though senator graham proposed it in december, even at that time it was not a new idea, it has been tried and failed on capitol hill repeatedly because both sides haven't been interested in trading wall money for some kind of daca protection. so it is unclear, if the deal has the deal has the potential to gain traction this time. >> let me turn to ryan noibls. thank you. stand by. we do know in the past, ryan, democrats have tried to make a deal to protect dreamers so might they be able to go somewhere with this? >> the early read on that is no. and there's a couple of reasons behind that. the first reason is that democrats were not involved in this process. the white house basically had an insular conversation about this, with mick mulvaney and the vice president and jared kushner, where they hatched this plan, but they didn't involve any of the congressional leaders, particularly the democratic congressional leaders that would have a big say in whether or not this would pass both the house and senate. in fact, one senate democratic aide told me, quote, the democrats were not consulted on this. and have rejected similar overtures previously. it's clearly a nonserious product of negotiations amongst white house staff, to try to clean up messes the president created in the first place, and potus is holding people hostage for the wall. we've had similar reporting on the house side of things, jake tapper hearing from a source, on the democratic house, that said that they were not involved in this process at all, and from what they've heard, they just would not agree to it. but to back up your point about whether or not this is similar to proposals we've seen in the past, yes, there was a time back when house democrats were in the minority and chuck schumer, the senate minority leader said to president trump, i'll give you $25 billion for a wall if you give me permanent status for these dreamers, a 10 to 14-year path to citizenship. then we can start the conversation. at the time, president trump flatly rejected that. he even threatened to veto a measure like that. now the conversation is different. yes, it's less money, only $6 billion for a wall, but what the president is offering is only a temporary protection for these dreamers, and for some of the people under temporary protected status, and what democrats are telling me is they are not going to trade permanent for temporary, under any conditions, regardless of the amount of money at stake. and furthermore, as sara points out, they are not in a mood to negotiate both the shutdown and immigration at the same time. they feel that these are two distinct and different conversations. and they're not even going to talk about immigration, including the walt, until the government is back open. >> and the democrats are in the minority back when they were talking about that deal you laid out. ryan nobles, and sara westwood, thank you both for the insight. now, as the president prepare force his remarks, we are hearing that house democrats plan to move forward with a path of their own. and a plan that they are proposing. a source telling cnn, they plan to vote next week, on adding a billion in border security spending. "the new york times" also reporting that that includes $524 million to improve ports of entry, and $563 million to hire 75 new immigration judges. but guess what, it doesn't include money for the wall. democrats will make the case that there are other more effective security measures. an excellent group of journalists to get us ready for the president's remarks. cnn political analyst mark presten and michael shearer and david singer of times. >> what is trump's goal today? >> it certainly to try to turn public opinion back in his favor. this is all a political messaging stunt in many ways. if you take a step back looking at the timing, 24 hours ago, that he decided that he was going to announce that he was unveiling some kind of proposal that they kept under wraps until early this morning. and then from there, if you look amount what he did the rest of the day, he did what a president should do and he did the dignified transfer, and then he came back and what he is going to do in the next hour or so, he will come out on a saturday afternoon and try to appropriate ject that he is working, that the white house is working, on a saturday, to try to get the government back up and going, when the democrats are not there. he's also going to offer what he says is a compromise, but as our reporting show, and as we all know it, is not a compromise. this is all about messaging. this is all about trying to turn public opinion against the democrats, and back in favor of him. >> mike am, i want to play for you what rope can senat, republ senator john kennedy said about the current state of play and the shutdown. listen? . >> he is a carnivore. and on this one i can tell you he believes he is right. >> now, consider what the president wrote in the art of the deal. he says the worst thing you can possibly do in a deal is seem desperate to make it. that makes the other guy smell blood. and then you're dead. so do you think there's any way trump makes a deal without the wall, or the steel slats? is he desperate enough? >> well, it doesn't seem like he's desperate enough to completely abandon the wall. the question i guess is can he, could he back off of some element of it, could he, would he be willing to go with a little less money. that's unclear. it certainly doesn't look like it. in fact, go can into the speech this morning, he told reporters, as he was leaving to go to andrews av andrews air force base, wall, wall, wall, he wasn't backing off at all. i don't think that is the only reason why everyone should be skept cam about the deal. as your reporters have said not only are democrats highly skeptical about this, these are programs that ultimately democrats want extended%ly, to give some permanent relief to these immigrants that are in the country and have this sort of threat of deportation constantly hanging over their head, and don't forget that there is one more element, which is the real right wing in the republican party and in this administration, the people that are most conservative about immigration don't think the wall is enough. so when we get to the, if we were to get to real negotiations on this, it is highly likely that that element in donald trump's administration would start adding even more conservative things. an end to chain migration. an end to the diversity lottery program. >> which is what happened last time around. >> which is what happened last time around and which are essentially all but poison pills for any kind of negotiations for the democrats. so i mean we are a long, long way. this is not something that is going to be wrapped up this afternoon or tomorrow morning. i mean even if there were to be some crack in the negotiations, and they were to start, it is not going to be over any time soon. >> david, in terms of what happened, and what the democrats are now saying they're going to offer, in new legislation next week, a little more than half a billion to improve ports of entry security and another $500 million plus to hire more immigration judges, how big of an impact would that money have? because the president has mentioned wanting those things in addition to the wall? >> the answer is not much. p when you consider how much money was allocated last year that went unspent in a lot of border security issues, including some for the wall. i think at this point the question that the president is facing is whether or not he can convince everybody that he's actually more determined to get the government up and running and get out of this. he has really painted himself into a corner. and i think what he has failed to do over the past four weeks of the shutdown is actually convince the american people that this is a security threat, that is worth all of the economic damage, far more than the $5 billion. and the personal displacement that he's caused along the way, by shutting the government down along the way. you know, in just a week or two, he's going to watch as his intelligence officials release their annual threat assessment of major threats to the united states. we don't know what this year's will show, but in last year's, the first time the border issues came up was on page 14. long after cyber threats. and nuclear proliferation. and china. and russia. and many other issues. i think the president has basically failed at this point to generate to americans that his number one priority is actually their number one threat. if he didn't manage to do that in his comments today, i'm not sure how much he is going to really move the ball. >> in fact, i was just looking at a stat that i had dug up and that is here in the united states, since 9/11, 455 jihadist terrorists have been charged or convicted or died before they faced trial, not one of these terrorists crossed the southern border. so there's information like that, which obviously is counter to the president's argument for why this wall is necessary. getting back to the politics, though, of this discussion, mark, i'm wondering, can trump really say democrats aren't for border security, if they pass this legislation in the next week, that would be providing money for border security? >> well, he will. i mean whether it's true or not, he will continue to parrot it. in many ways, and i joke about saying whether it is true or not, because i don't think you will even find republicans who will privately tell you that they don't think that democrats are for border security. in fact, these are many of the same republicans who don't think that president trump is handling this shutdown very well. but you are going to hear this from president trump. i suspect you are going to hear him appear very presidential in the next hour or so. and it's amazing that we have to actually say that about a president. but he will appear very presidential. but you only have to harken back to some of his tweets and some of the things he says when he is negotiating. openly negotiating, as he is going to do in the next hour or so, is really not negotiating. again, this is a political stunt. a messaging stunt. on his part. and he will say that democrats are not for border security. perhaps he won't say it today. but he will certainly say it tomorrow, and he has certainly said it earlier this week. >> do you think we would see more republicans sign on and take sides with democrats if they pass this bill this week, mark? >> i think there is going to be issue on some republicans to join on, but i don't think we're at that point yet. when we say the government is shut down by the way, we're not saying the whole federal government is shut down, we're seeing a certain aspect is shut down, that's why we haven't felt the full effects of absolute outrage from people across the country. >> look at poll after poll. and more than 50% of americans put the blame on trump and congressional republicans right now for the shutdown. one of the president's own economic advisers we heard this week saying that the economic impact of this shutdown is actually worse than originally thought, or predicted. michael, assuming that the talks are still stalled after today, at what point does the president make the decision, the economy, or the wall? >> well, i mean i think that pressure is on president trump. but let's just not be too quick to not realize that these things often shift. and if the president, i mean as mark says, this is definitely part, at least part political stunt, and an effort to kind of change the nati, nare tive. if the president is successful in shifting to the democrat the idea that they're obstinate and they're the ones refusing to come to the table, you can imagine a situation where some of those poll numbers shift and the pressure becomes either more equally shared or even goes the other direction. i mean at the moment, it doesn't look like that is going to happen but these things are dynamic and if the shutdown continues another week, another ten days, another two weeks, there is lots of people in washington who will feel that, not only the president. >> and not helping matters, is that the president and the house speaker are in a nasty feud that seemed to just accelerate this week. she told him to put off the state of the union for security concerns. he grounds her plane. and outs her trip to afghanistan. here she is. >> you never, never advance, you never give advanced notice of going into a battle area. we just never do. perhaps the president's inexperience didn't have him understand that protocol. the people around him though should have known that. that is very dangerous. >> david, what was your reaction to all of that? >> well, i think in canceling the state of the union, or at least suggesting that it be canceled, there may have been a bit of overreach by speaker pelosi. i mean this is a tradition that has gone on for sometime. even at times of very great political division and even during the nixon impeachment, even during the bill clinton impeachment, so there was that overreach. but then canceling the trip seemed to be not only petty, but in an interference in congressional oversight. and p then of course, ms. pelosi and her delegation were planning to go commercial, and they believe that was leaked by people in the administration, the administration ze nye denies that, but this is not the way adults conduct either congressional oversight or american foreign policy. clearly given what is going on in afghanistan and beyond, it is important that congressional leadership get out there, and for the president to interfere in that seems to me to be a pretty far reach. certainly, speaker pelosi was recognizing the one thing president trump values the most is a direct line to the american people. and she wasn't about to go give him that moment on tv. we haven't seen that before either. >> it doesn't seem like either of them score points with each other though, that's the other problem here. >> that's right. >> and talking about the shutdown stalemate. thank you, everyone. please stand by. more to discuss. we will bring you the president's announcement about the government shutdown, live from the white house, when it happens. it is scheduled for 4:00. so that is about 45 minutes from now. meantime president trump also talking about north korea today, in a second summit with kim jong-un. it's set for next month, he says. what can the president hope to gain this time?

>> there were three locations that sources were telling us were kind of being tossed around by the united states. hawaii, i could rule that out almost completely. the north koreans would not agree to that. bangkok was thrown out as another possibility. but i'm being told the most likely scenario is vietnam. the reason for that close to north korea and a relatively short trip for kim jong-un and vietnam is a war that fought a war with the united states and rose from the ashes and a potential model for north korea if they decide to open up their economy which is something that kim jong-un has stated he wants to do. we have to wait for the initial announcement. it could be a surprise that nobody is considering but we're hearing likely vietnam at this point. >> will you cover that first u.s. north korea summit in singapore and you traveled back and forth many times and kim promised to take steps to denuclear larization in the korean peninsula. has he done that? >> in the sense that he hasn't launch a missile in 2018, i was there when they blew up the nuclear test site, these are confidence building measures on the part of the north koreans but nothing substantive in terms of reducing the size of the nuclear arsenal. spy satellites have observed expanding nuclear missiles an i'm told that north korea has likely more nuclear weapons today than the beginning of the process. the problem with singapore is it was so vague and kim jong-un walked away thinking that the u.s. was ready to ease sanctions almost immediately and president trump walked away thinking north korea was ready to start the process of shipping nuclear weapons out of the country. that hasn't happened. the sanctions are still in place. north korea still has all of its nuclear weapons. so the big sticking points and the reason talks have kind of fallen apart in the months since singapore is the two sides have been so far apart about what they think denuclearization should look like and how long it should take. so the big question we need to find out are these discussions between the u.s. and north korea and lower level meetings today in sweden, in stoke home, are they willing to compromise. is the u.s. perhaps considering lifting some sanctions and is north korea actually willing to take steps to reduce the arsenal. those are unanswered questions. president trump alluding to the fact that they are making great progress behind the scenes and in this case, the second summit could amount to something as opposed to singapore which was a vaguely worded statement and no real action. >> you mentioned the meeting today in sweden. there was the meeting yesterday, right here in the u.s., with the president, talking to north korea's former spy chief, who is now the north korean envoy here, and we know he also met with mike pompeo, everybody was all smile, thumbs up after the meeting, but you mentioned some of the sticking points, do we know what was specifically discussed during that meeting? do we know what each side wants? >> we don't have a readout of what kim jong khol talked about when he met less than an hour with officer pompeo. he later had lunch and an oval office meeting which stretched 90 minutes. obviously there was the issue of handing over a letter from kim jong-un and finalizing the agreement that the two sides are willing to sit down for a second summit which is something the north koreans have been pushing for because i'm being told they feel they can't work with anyone other than president trump. they have been frustrated with members of the administration. including secretary pompeo. and his negotiation strategy. where as trump and kim apparently had such a great rapport, that the north koreans feel trump is going to be the one who can give them a deal, that is favorable to them. something that they can accept. and so did they talk about the specifics of that deal in the oval office? president trump not revealing much about that. i guess that is something that we will have to wait and see if he leaks more information out, including the location of the summit as well. >> they fell in love, kim jong-un and the president. according to president trump. thank you, will ripley. we will bring back michael and david of "the new york times" and mark preston. we are officially heading into a second summit it sounds like but what have we gotten out of the first summit? >> we haven't gotten very much. as will points out, there has been a cessation of testing of both missiles and nuclear tests, for the past 13 months. that's good. we don't know very much about the destruction of their nuclear test site. when secretary pompeo went to north korea in september, he emerged saying that kim jong-un had agreed to allow in inspectors. that still hasn't happened. that gives you a sense of the challenge ahead, as they head into this next summit. the president's got to get a few things done. first, he needs to go into this much better prepared than he did last time. where as will suggested there was an extremely vague agreement that didn't set out what was to be done and when. secondly, the north koreans need to start the process by turning over an inventory of what they've got. how many weapons, how many missiles. the fuel that they've got. the president's got to get the north koreans to freeze their additional production of fuel and weapons. otherwise, as will suggested, the arsenal is increasing while you're negotiating and then fourthly they have to be on a hard schedule of who gives up what and what order. so far, they have been stuck, because the north koreans believe we start with sanctions relief, and we believe that they start with weapons being turned over. clearly, there's going to have to be some very carefully orchestrated dance there. >> michael, what do you make of the timing of this summit and the president's announcement about it, because it doesn't seem like there is an imminent threat. >> there is not an imminent threat. there is continued and very serious threat from north korea, as david points out and will talked about, there really hasn't been a fundamental and substantive change in the amount of weapons that north korea had, and the previous administration had identified north korea and the north korea threat as among the most serious in the world, to the united states, so to that extent, that it is an ongoing threat. but look, i think you know, the layer that we haven't talked about yet is the politics and the optics of this. the president of the united states is facing a very difficult political period in the next few months, that will, we think involve all sorts of revelations out of the mueller probe and continued fighting with the democrats who are now in charge of the house. and so for him, if he can orchestrate another elaborate meeting like he did with kim the first time, it at least makes him look presidential. puts him on the stage. and while the after math of that first summit didn't really accomplish much and there has been criticism, you know, he got the pictures that he wanted to get the last time around, and i think he feels like if he can get those pictures again, you know, him on the world stage, in that kind of triumphant moment, that helps to distract from some of his other problems. >> i'm going to turn to syria and mark, i wonder, do you think the death of four americans, god rest their soul, bless them, does it change the political calculation of pulling u.s. forces out of syria, or at the very least how the president talks about it? >> i don't think so. i mean look, i think he made his decision. and he's going to move forward on it. and he is not someone who is very careful with his words. i think we're all kind of numb to that at this point. but what is even more troubling when you're talking about syria and when you're talking about north korea, and as we're talking about all of of these really hot spots, you're talking about president trump who has been very, very unreliable in that he hasn't been able to take a very traditional path. he's, you don't know what he is going to say, you don't know what he is going to do, you don't know what his motives are, and when you see the likes of jim mattis, the defense secretary, leave, because he said he, his values don't necessarily measure up to the president's values, certainly strategy values, that is something that is very scary. so as we head into this difficult time as michael was laying out, there are some obstacles that lay ahead outside of the borders of the united states that could be very terrifying. >> david, there have been a lot of republicans, including trump allies and supporters, who are really balking at this move to pull troops from syria. and yet, you have some, like senator rand paul, who are cheering it on. and he says these four deaths have nothing to do with the president's decision. and i want you to listen to what he had to say today on cnn. >> to those who say, oh, they were killed because we're leaving, no they're killed because we were there. and the longer we stay, the more of our soldiers will be killed. >> there's a lot of political theater around all of this. but what do u.s. national security officials think, david? >> so the four deaths were a deep tragedy, particularly with those who seem to be four people who were working extremely well with the syrian people, they were in a cafe, actually, talking to some syrians, at the time the suicide bomber came in. but it has very little to do with the strategic question of whether or not we should be in syria and whether or not having 2,000 forces there is enough to make a difference. remember, we had 170,000 in iraq. and it's arguable that we were able to change the course of that country by having them there for that long. i think the central problem we run into with the syria withdrawal, is the president, whether you agree with his in p tint to leave or not, did it in the worst possible way. he did in with brett mcguirk, the adviser for syria who also resigned, the state department adviser, without considering the down sides of this, without checking with allies in advance, without consulting with his generals, he announced a timetable that was unrealistic, he gave the sense too is, to yi that isis that we were pulling out that quickly and emboldening them to come into places they might otherwise not of. and whether you agree with him or not, the process that he went about this basically made the situation vastly worse. >> thank you all. good to have you with us on this saturday. held in russia, a self proclaimed sex coach who claims inside knowledge of russian election meddling, taken from a jail in thailand, and flown to moscow, where she says she is being detained. is the kremlin trying to keep her quiet?
