hire an engineering firm to get the city ready for using the flint river as a primary drinking water source. at the time the state appointed one man government for flint, michigan. the state-appoint emergency manager was trying to carry out a plan that the city counsel had voted for back in the day. which was to try to save money by having flint buy its drinking water from detroit. they d always bought water from detroit and it was expensive and they decided that flint was broke. they needed to save money, needed to get a better deal for flint so, they wanted to use a new water system, be part of a new water system that was still under construction. in the meantime, while that new water system was still under construction, the city of flint had a choice to make. they could make some sort of kind of short-term deal with detroit, which the emergency manager said was really too expensive, or they could macgyver some kind of solution for where they would get their water now that they were
on stage on immigration, rubio was this morning asked about the topic of immigration. let s play what he had to say about that. this belief that the hispanic community is in favor of illegal immigration is false. they re deeply impacted. there are millions who have come legally and have relatives who are waiting to come legally. seems like coming out of the 2012 election, the republican party made the decision to moderate no tone, moderate in policy and immigration and that rubio saw a political opening there to lead that moderatation and recognized the base wasn t ready, then pulled back. so where do you see him landing on this? when you look back to 2012, the republican party had come out talking about wanting to
smile, then he took a picture where i wasn t ready, and it was horrible. and it was the picture that everybody said we should use. you can t have a big smiling face with a term crippled america with the title. so, its been doing really well, the book s been amazing, actually. and it was the hardest i ve worked on a book since the art of the deal. i ve done 12, many best-sellers, but this is the hardest i ve worked. and it was a little bit, you know, it was a quick time, quick turn around, but it s the hardest i ve worked on a book since the art of the deal. let me ask you a question, donald, about money, we re going to talk about your add buys in just a bit, $300,000, not too much for you. often, i think one of the main attractions of your message is that you don t need money from the outside. you re paying for this yourself. people really like that. and you often said that you don t have any use for big donors. specifically sheldon adleson and
