previous inconsistencies. he said a number of things he said we should pull out of syria, then, on the other hand said we need a proportional response and this shows benefits and detriments of a proportional response with the use of chemical agents. what that shows is that president trump tends to put syria in two different boxes and tends to see there is a war against isis which he thinks we re winning and a civil war which he seems to have no appetite for. they re very much intertwined and we hear him being inconcities stent with this issue. stay with us, we ll be back after this short break and we ll
communication, radio is a good medium for him. the problem is it s not an easy job. just because you show some skill or promise, the mets signed tim tebow. there s a better shot of tebow making the major leagues than christie sliding into the number one spot in sports talk radio and running with it. you just laid out what would make him a successful sports radio guy. so why don t you think he can do it? my scouting report if he were a player would list those attributes. now there are detriments. it is hard to overcome the fact that his listening area mostly hates him. even though wfan has a different listenership, it is not a fun i think callers want to call up and lambaste him for the beach, for bridge gate, and hasn t shown a sense of humor. bridgegate, he can t own that, he is denying it legally. it is good to have tension with
of making policy, mr. president. sort of same thing with immigration. it s a really easy during campaign to talk about wall building and mass deportation forces. it s a lot harder when you re governoring. i hope he moves. let s talk about on the same subject these things called skut nicks, named after president reagan in 1982 invited to the state of the union, he had rescued a drowning woman who was in a plane crash. since then presidents in the opposition party bring skut nicks to herald an american hero or to illustrate a policy. last year president obama state of the union guest included the skut nicks of a syrian refugee and a mexican immigrant. this year president trump is bringing victims of crimes committed by undocumented immigrants. so, he is certainly still on the hard line path at least in that way. that s right, that reinforces the message he made during the campaign and the message he s given since coming into office about cracking down on illegal immigration and the d
came after the 96 election. it also, ed, raises everything we always went through in the 90s, starting with paula jones, not just lewinsky, all the other allegations. do you think hillary really needs that. she doesn t and one of the real detriments to candidacy, substantial number of americans including democrats don t think she is honest and participated in cover-ups and rest of it. getting reminded of it early in the campaign will knock her off her stride a little bit. got a socialist running against her who no one can get to the left of in not very viable governor of maryland and former governor. my sense this is good strategy on his part. she has to respond and will respond that will basically med. eric: joe, the private marriage is one thing, that people have dissected until the cows come home but what about potential conflict between her being a standard-bearer for women and icon which she says and
potentially running for an office when people are still talking about whether or not you re a bully and liar and responsible for perhaps a disaster, at least a crisis. it s not a good thing. it gives the opponent something to run on. i think how it damages him. chris christie up to this point, his image has been, this is who i am. bluntly, i m showing you. i m overweight, i m fat, i tell the truth, i stand up to people. this is who i am. but if it turns out who you are is legitimately a bully, like legitimately a politician, vindictive politician, bully, all the other things that used to be appealing, the bluntness, truthtelling, even the weight becomes detriments. instead of an asset his charm becomes something he has to fight against. it takes away his number one weapon, his number one asset. with all of these dark clouds hovering does he need to step down from being leader of the republican governors association, will? no. no. not until it s proven. again, i mean, if it s prov
