played tonight were looking to shine but not much "shine" in tonight's performance. this is the only action that jameis winston saw tonight. the starters of course, sitting this one out. in the rain, the defenseith a theain, play was pretty sloppy, with glennon losing the ball here. and negative 1 passing yards. conditions really had nothing to do with this play, mack brown, with a big 60-yards touch-down run for the redskins, but the second half. right down the middle. two fieldgoals and there was a loss. preseason, finally over. >> i mean, this is not a fun way to finish preseason, it's just a sour taste after what i think was a productive preseason, not at all what we had in mind but we have to realize we were not playing our best guys and this you have to keep on reminding yourself of that and it will be great to put it behind us and get on with it. >> they try to get out of the preseason games without injuries but unfortunately kenny bell left the gam with a concussion. >> an exciting time, thank you, scott. and the news cont continu website, and our app, and money, power and politics is next. >> from all of us here at fox 13, we hope you have a great tonight we're investigating millions in believe. pending you may not when the government spends a fortune on dirt. plus we have some big changes in cuba. trump spends the day in mexico. scott smith spends another night trying to guess what happens next. this is money, power & politics. first, only nixon could go to china and now only donald trump could go to mexico. especially after what the former president of mexico said about trump and his wall. that "[bleep]" wall. >> trump did not allow the media to go with him to mexico. he's taking a big political gamble e especially since he said mexico is not our friend and accused it of shipping killers into our country. >> they are bringing drugs and crime. >> he's trying to look presidential and show he can talk tough and move the ball as nixon did opening the door to china after fighting a proxy war union an evil empire and struck a deal with gosh chef. trump wants to do it in reverse. mr. president, pay for this wall. to that end he may come up short. but he's trying to sure up his base after waffling on deportation. >> we're going to prioritize getting people out of this country who in addition to being here illegally violated our laws. >> people her illegally focusing on the bad ones. that's the challenge he's trying nsvative critics claim he's adopted jeb bush's position. >> they broke the law but it's not a felony. >> coming in as an iegal is anct of velo remember that line. >> here's the context. time after time, republican leaders have been burned by their own base by their plans >> grant amnesty to a lot of illegals. >> this bill is the amnesty dream. >> not to reward bad behavior with amnesty. >> a while back they stopped ewes amnesty and called it earned citizenship. meaning they would grant them to right to stay only after paying a price for having been here illegal le, like paying back taxes. but the base reminded them that's what amnesty meant. >> it means you have to pay a price for having illegally. >> after george w. bush, romney came along and tied himself in not knots on this. >> those 12 million here illegally should be given if opportunity to sign up to stay here. they should be given no special pathway to citizen shin or permanent residency. should be able to sign up for permanent residency. >> in 2012, republicans found a way to lose 71% of the la tee foe vote and lose the fuming since 1986. >> i believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and lived here even thoughomeime back they may have entered illegally. >> reagan signed off on amnesty for 3 million illegal immigrants and conservatives say it was one of his biggest mistakes. president george w bush took another look. and then rubio tried comprehensive reform. the base had enough and trump to walling off the nation and deporting all. which is why his base winced when he went on hanty and said some can stay if they pay back taxes. just a few minutes we'll drill into trump's speech and show you what he's changed and what he hasn't. we'll also have some big changes to talk about with cuba and fbi notes could reveal more about hillary clinton's e-mail troubles. but first it's wednesday night and time to have
