the words national debt. and the washington post is reporting that house republican leader kevin mccarthy has said in private that republicans lost the house because of their policies, specifically trying to take health insurance away from people with pre-existing conditions. kevin mccarthy has a way of saying things in private that he never says in public. during the presidential campaign, he was recorded in private saying he believes that donald trump is paid by vladimir putin. democrats agree with kevin mccarthy that republicans lost on the issues, and it looks like democratic presidential candidates now have donald trump s failed promises on the national debt to use against him in their campaigns. now, this is when we want to hear from an economist who has worked on these issues at the presidential level. and we are lucky now to have austin goolsbee with us. he is a professor of economics at the university of chicago, who was the chairman of president obama s council of economi

president trump is making it very clear that there will not be another shutdown, but at the very same time he is trying to satisfy the right-wing media that objects to the bipartisan government funding deal that could be voted on in the house of representatives tomorrow that provides zero for the trump wall. democrats have consistently lowered their offer to republicans and the president on other forms of border security since the president demanded $5.6 billion for his wall in december before the trump shutdown. many in the news media have been latching on to other things that the president said today in which he tried to pretend that there will be some suspense about whether he will sign the bipartisan deal if it is passed by the house and the senate. but you just heard the president say there is no reason for a shutdown. he is going to sign whatever is passed by the house and senate. he said that today, that there s no reason for a shutdown,
