Their living within the support of the deal. nikki haley said, president, if you re going to do this, let me help you. the president made it very clear in july he did not want to recertify this and secretary mattis and tillerson told him, look, you have not made a public case for dessert fiction. that s very important if you want to decertify. it was after that ambassador nikki haley came and said, i ll make the public case if you want to decertify. what s interesting is so many of the president s aides and advisers are trying to check his impulses and keep him under control. this is an adviser in haley that said, let me channel your impulse and help do what you want to try to do, lay the groundwork. i see shaping up in congress, the question to me is does this become another health care fiasco where majority of republicans have campaigned on undoing the deal, all the presidential candidates said,
Place to look for the more i guess establishment conservative way of thought these days, here s what they said. he talking about the president still needs a gop majority to pass his agenda as much as republicans need him to sign it. they need each other in particular this autumn to raise the debt ceiling, press deregulation and pass a budget and tax reform. failure on that agenda after the health care fiasco opens the door to a democratic house meaning nonstop anti-trump investigations and perhaps impeachment. the best defense against mutual assured political destruction is legislative success in the fall. a point you were making. exactly. this is, before we even talk about the things the president s talking about, like tax reform and infrastructure, finishing health care. they need to get through the fall. they have not passed any of the appropriation bills, the fiscal year begins october 1st and raise the debt ceiling or default on our obligations. these are must-pass. if congr
Can t help themselves. donald trump basically ran on the idea like all those foreign policy things they can go behind us, i m going to put america first and we need to bring back jobs and change the economy. that s what his fundamental message was. this isn t his dough dojo why is he doing this? because presidents when they take the oval office one of the few levers of power they have unchecked by is making military decisions. i think donald trump has figured out after the health care fiasco he can make decisions in foreign policy and nobody can tell him not to. that s part of what s going on. syria wants some bipartisan support. he wants to stay on this road? i actually think part of the thing i think matt is right. 90% of most president s time is spent on foreign policy. those are the emergencies and the things that have to be dealt with right away. trump has no clue. tillerson whose reputation is a smart business guy doesn t know anything about foreign policy. it s a real
I mean, we can do more than one thing at a time. it is not a one off. yes, there is a rhyme and a reason to what has to and should go first, but it doesn t mean the white house is just doing one topic at a time. brad, is the president right, saying tax reform is going to be easier than health care? i don t think so. i think a lot of commentators said it is more complicated. i know they re looking for bipartisan support for tax reform. i think what we saw on the health care fiasco is they can t get their own house in order. i think long before they go and reach out to democrats, they have to figure out whether or not they can get republicans on the same page. they couldn t on health care reform. they re not going to on tax reform. dallas, to the point, if the white house wants to do it on the same plate, when they couldn t do health care when it was the only thing on the plate. first of all, they re making progress on health reform, you
At the end of this week. all right. we await anxiously. thank you, christine. since the health care fiasco, tired of winning yet? it has become the winningest that trump krit kicks hurl. here is jeannie moos. when critics made fun of president trump losing, the favorite ammunition is boasting about winning. we re going to win so much, you may get tired of winning. you may get bored with winning. you re going to get so sick and tired of winning. so america, are you tired of winning yet? so much winning, winning! even this republican strategist couldn t resist. aside from being sick and tired of all this failing we did one critic so when exactly does the winning start followed by a lifs trump s setbacks. the parody account for donald j. rump tweeted i m really getting sick of winning. it is overrated. all comedian bill maher had to do is play the video. it s too much winning. we can t take it anymore.
