Ted cruz and marco rubio. Trumps tone may be rez nightsonating ruffling feathers certainly and the loudest most inflammatory voice wins trump is getting competition recently from Mike Huckabee who referenced the holocaust when he criticized the nuclear deal with iran. He is so naive. He would trust the iranians. He would take the israelis and basically march them to the door of the oven. Well Hillary Clinton called the comment offensive. President obama had this to say. The particular comments of mr. Huckabee are, i think part of just a general pattern that we have seen that is would be considered ridiculous if it werent so sad. A lot to talk about with rnc Communications Director sean spicer he joins me.

Age. He previously resided in the state of alabama. Hes kind of a drifter. Hes been in lafayette since early july as far as we can tell. We have also learned more about the victims. Ed joins us live with that side of the story. Reporter good morning, carol. Disturbing details in this latest briefing from authorities here in lafayette as they describe as you heard the name of the gunman 59yearold described as a drifter from alabama. They also say they found at a nearby motel he ae arrived here in the lafayette area less than a month ago and found wigs and disguises in his hotel room. Investigators here in lafayette have been working throughout the night fanned out across the city not only working at the theater in processing the crime scene here but also going to that motel and speaking and looking through the room and speaking to the people who were in that area to try to piece together a motive in all of this.

At 8 45 reports received of more shots being fired. At 8 46 a. M. Reports received of the suspect. Again he was wearing all black standing near a car wash located right next to the Convenience Store.

We have learned a good deal about him. But not enough to lead us to any conclusions about why this
Immigration reform the art of the deal was on full display as the president listened and negotiated all in front of those tv cameras. President trump im appealing to everyone in the room to put the country before party. And to sit down and negotiate and to compromise and lets see if we can get something done. I feel having the democrats in with us is absolutely vital because this should be a bipartisan bill. This should be a bill of love. There is not a democrat that is not for having secure borders. There are obviously differences, however, mr. President , on how you affect that. President trump when we talk about daca we dont want to be back two years later. You have to have security. In a matter of days we can come together and reach an agreement. When that happens i think good things will happen in other places. President trump there should be no reason not for us to get this done. Sandra kevin corke is live for us. Fascinating exchanges in that meeting yesterday. What came out of
