hello everyone i m melissa francis. we are waiting for white house press secretary sean spicer to take the top podium for the first time in over two weeks. a lot has happened since then. president trump s big overseas trip, north korea, russia, nato, and a change in his communications team. we are going to take over the top of the hour on america s newsroom hq . jenna: story behind the memorable image for memorial day that you have likely seen. it president trump sharing a moment with a 6-year-old christopher jacobs, who was visiting his father s grave in arlington. we didn t expect it, we were hoping we get to see him there that day. it was just amazing. what did you say to them? i said that, do you want to come and see my dad? he said sure. what did he say to you?
anybody who doesn t want to see tax reform done like isaac on the democrats, are going to use this loophole to say that it s a tax increase. but you graze a good point. if we all have the courage not to play this silly game, of using individual loopholes to derail the process, i think it would be a lot easier to get there if we could just get a few courageous democrats to join with the courageous republicans to get the and economic growth that we want to see in the country. my colleague here and an ens republican colleagues are talking about, is that they are not going to pay taxes twice on the same money. taxes on the same money that goes to the federal government and the state as well. if that s your position, going to the elections with her. jenna: scott, isaac, great to have you both. thank you. jon: jared kushner is now front and center in the investigation about possible
