Do you think his instructions were to do it . Charles congressman Chris Collins won a president comes earliest backers on capitol hill pouring more gasoline on the whole thing saying there is only one phrase to finger point and it should go toward the Freedom Party or Freedom Caucus. Of course the two will never meet with the Freedom Caucus and with capitals never in other words both sides trying into position to joining me to discuss lisa both former congressman joe walsh and. Mark mark macklin. Guys, this is one heck of a donnybrook. I think we all saw coming last week. Its interesting guys, did my own poll and 61 of my timeline felt that this was all paul ryans fault that President Trump obviously 100 on paul ryan and now its on. Charles im so tired of everybody saying that its not Donald Trumps fault. This was his tweet. You know what it was a really really stupid thing to do. Donald trump ran against the d. C. Establishment. The only political people in d. C. Who were with him on that are the members of the Freedom Caucus. They are brothers in arms and for him not to go after the democrats are not even to go after the republican establishment that put that bill in front of everybody for him to turn on the conscience of the party is unconscionable. Charles what about the notion though that he was elected to get things done and he wants to get them done in a hurry. He wants to reinvigorate the economy and maybe they are looking at this spill saying hey its Freedom Caucus. We understand where you are coming from and we saluted that these are under roasted expectations and a framework of what we have inherited. Charles i agree. Donald trump did not know what was in that bill. All he wanted was a victory in the Freedom Caucus stood at the wall to make sure that victory didnt happen, but that bill didnt pass. Its all about winners and losers with him but charles this is a war that he cannot win. This will divide the party if he continues to go at the conscience of the party. Charles we do know mathematically the Freedom Caucus and the democrats can bind or 216 votes we can anything past if you go against both but what he is trying to do is real these guys in saying hey i dont want to be tough on you. He was nonpulse if you will last week buddies getting agitated right now. They want to get health care done in part its tough to get the right score on the rest of the agenda if they cant get a break with some of these deficit reductions in health care. The guy came saying he was going to frame his boss and he now looks like the creature from the black within. What hes separating himself from his own base. I live out here in grassroots land and i can tell you in his base its 99 and 910 are against what he did to the Freedom Caucus. They are celebrating what the Freedom Caucus did to prevent this bill and is undercutting his own support among his strongest supporters. Charles although i must tell you i have folks at my twitter timeline and other social media that are saying we love the Freedom Caucus but you guys are starting to mess up. It feels like the pendulum is turning and the tide is turning that i want to bring in lisa boothe. Its a tough one, right . This is really tough because i think its the Freedom Caucus and the tea party that sets the stage iv the eventual donald Trump Victory to the white house or this whole Grassroots Movement but are they overplaying their hand . Look i think republicans often engage in the circular firing squad and i have a Novel Concept that everyone is to blame for health care. The president could have done more to spearhead it and leadership and speaker writer could have been more inclusive. Charles he had these big rallies, President Trump and he expressed his support for almost every single day and he did press conferences. You also have the Freedom Caucus and moderates who held out. I think everyone has to share and not seeing the Health Care Bill move forward. Charles lisa some people have looked at this right away and said President Trump you are being set up by the establishment. What paul ryan is asking is not what the public wants and not what you were elected for. Can we go to that is perhaps the real root of the problem . I would argue President Trump was elected if he ran on being a dealmaker and someone that wants to see things get done. Now i think its very early and hes going to get tax reform done. These are growing pains and they party has not been in a leadership position. There are lessons to be learned here but the only way people are going to come individuals involved in this are going to learn from this lesson is everyone assumes and accepts the belief that they had in the failure of health care moving forward. Charles accepting that lame, or what point do we cross the rubicon and another words there is growing animosity. Jim jordan was on tv a lot. He was trying to be diplomatic if you will but of course amash was like listen be pushed back immediately. At what point do these conflicting parties who have everything in common and want the same goals push each other to the point of no return . I think everyone has a stake in the desire to get something done. Thats what they ran on that they were going to get Health Care Reform done in tax reform done so this desire to accomplish those things and to achieve those things to go home to their various districts i would say we got these things done. I think that common desire is ultimately whats going to see things happen over the finish line but ultimately there will have to be compromises from eryone to get that done. Charles you know joe, if we were watching a Football Game and we saw tom brady report of his teammates on the sideline they would say thats real leadership and thats what you youve got to do and more than likely the guy would make the gamewinning catch. Im embellishing a little but. But you know where President Trump is going now is simply the kind of leadership and hes got to with these guys into shape so when they get on the bill they win. Charles the analogy would be brady goes to belichick and says get rid of those two offensive lineman i dont want them back next year they are not with us. Thats a giant step. Look i lived with this. John boehner did this. John boehner went after us conservatives every election cycle. For donald trump to do the same thing right now is really outrageous. Charles mark i interviewed representative dave bryan last night and remember he perhaps won one of the biggest upsets in political history before donald trump by removing eric cantor who is certainly the establishment. Take a listen to what he had to say. Senator Freedom Caucus voted with the rest of her conscious Conscious Congress to repeal obamacare so how it gets to be that we are the Sticking Point i dont get it. The bill has shifted, the bill has 17 approval in the polls probably because prices will go down. Prices go up 15 to 20 until 2020 within the confines of an obamacare structure. We are trying to get to yes thats true but our criteria has never shifted. Charles they are trying to get, i know you were a Tea Party Guy and you feel like their Freedom Caucus is getting a raw deal but what should they compromise on and what should they give up . Will look heres what i think the bottom line is. I disagree with police on this. They didnt get elected to do something. They got elected to live up to their promises. Pointblank including donald trump and including paul ryan repeatedly on numerous occasions promised repeal. What they delivered was not even close to repeal. It got to get close. They have got to get very close to that. I think its doable and i think they can get 85 of the way without going through reconciliation. They have to get serious with the repeal because that was their promise to the American People. I worked for representative mark meadows and i have respect for the guy but the reality is you also have moderates to deal with as well so this is the difficulty in getting this bill passed the finish line but if we are having this much problem in the house was going to happen in the senate . The republicans can only and you have big differences with senator ted cruz or rand paul or the moderates that expressed concern over the medicaid aspect like Shelly Moore Capito or murkowski or collins. If thats a problem and an obstacle there is a pretty deep divide between various sites and no one is going to get everything they want. Some point they need to figure something out that will satisfy everyone. Charles President Trump said this is extraordinarily complicated but if they cant do it now will never happen.

Charles 73 of voters in a new fox news poll calling for quick tax or form but tackling the trump economic agenda simplifying the tax code is not going to be as easy it seems very joining me to discuss vince coglianese. One of the things to talk about is some offsets because its going to lower the rate so much and people are saying where it is a from . To the come from Health Insurance exclusion something with iras for instance may be mortgage interested actions . Those are all areas that have been talked about but we didnt hear much about that on the campaign. Write and also youre going to simplify the tax code you will have to getid of deductions and all the way acrosstheboard. Lower taxes take care of the picking winners and losers in the economy for the tax code and make it simple. Theres a lot of resistance to that. First of all when you get rid of deductions alternately there are industries or individuals including specific taxpayers who are affected by that an ultimately the tax preparation industry doesnt want to see those, which was drawn by the way when it came to taxes doesnt want to see the pasco simplifies to the point where they are useless. This idea we can mail in your tax return and gives an eight check. They want to keep this thing complicated enough that you need help. Charles of course we all love to have adriana on a postcard and of course if they get rid of all the deductions we might get you might also be paying higher taxes. This is seriously complicated issue. It certainly is and i dont think tax reform is going to be any easier to pass than the failed health care endeavor. I think one area in consensus they could find given democrats and republicans both want to lower taxes for the middle class in both parties want to support small businesses. Where is going to start getting complicated and devices is a Corporate Tax rates, lowering the Corporate Tax rate. Both was supported dramatic tax cut and return those companies and jobs that come where they belonged the democrats prefer the strategy of punishing corporations with higher taxes so there is a lot of conflict here. That being said when you cut tax rates you have to make up the shortfall somewhere else especially if republicans are calling for tax reform to be revenueneutral. Wheres donald trump going to make up the shortfall . If you want a new tax base you will create new tax revenue there. You have to dramatically cut spending. Fraud waste and abuse in our government in another area where President Trump should take a hard look at is universities. They are forprofit industries and they are getting this massive loophole of taxexempt status and we are losing billions of dollars in tax money charles i think i would be popular. I believe some democrats would vote for lower tax rates particular and cities trying to lower business or would like to see job growth so i think a big problem is going to come on the individual side in the argument that rich people are being rewarded. Ironically listening to the rate at her lines between President Trump i think thats where rich people are going to lose out maybe on some of these deductions. The means tested benefits and things like that. I think theres a whole bunch of headwinds that the trump people are going to run into in here are some of them. One is that Steve Mnuchin is described as being more liberal on tax policy and thats not to the Freedom Caucus say you have conservative republicans and meanwhile democrats by and large have shown no evidence whatsoever that they want to cooperate with trump on anything even think that they like so while republicans will say you were holding up the tax cut for the middle class why are you doing that democrats are going to respond to Something Like you are making the rich get richer and they will continue to persist because they derive a fundraising benefit out of always been the opposition even on legislation where they agree. I hate to play this but i dont have a rosy view of this. Charles it sounded like lowhanging fruit. Im still optimistic it will happen but its going to be a lot more complicated than we thought.
