Out for presidents from both parties. what do you have to say about what the president had to say yesterday? about the sector the security issue he talked about. >> it seemed like it jarred him, got his attention. its probably not an approach he has made before in any airplane you traveled n. i made it many times. you know the first time it gets your attention. what i would say is welcome to iraq, mr. trump. welcome to the mission you are putting these troops through. try to understand that it i...

Against isis has been described to me by folks in the administration as if not the most successful, one of the most important counter terrorism operations. can you do that from afar without u.s. forces on the ground? >> ill take you back about two years. remember in early 2016 when we were having problems with isis in syria and part of the reason we were having that difficulty was because we didnt have eyes on the target, we didnt have intelligence from human beings. we had overhead platforms an...

About 2:00 this morning, stayed about an hour and a half there, met some additional probably -- mostly all airmen there, and theyre excited to see him. but what happens at those bases is somewhat confounding when he says, as you said before, the lies about paycheck, the lies about what theyre doing to isis because the soldiers more than anybody else know that. i mean spider will tell you we get whats called a leave in earnings statement every month that says, here is your pay. and when you get a...

There, and theyre excited to see him. but what happens at those bases is somewhat confounding when he says, as you said before, the lies about paycheck, the lies about what theyre doing to isis because the soldiers more than anybody else know that. i mean spider will tell you we get whats called a leave in earnings statement every month that says, here is your pay. and when you get a pay increase, it tells you exactly what it is. so hes not fooling any of these military members who get that leav...

There. its iran. its turkey. its russia, most importantly. theyve spent the money. they put the troops on the ground. theyve engaged militarily. thats the reason why the united states was not able to put an end to the war. its the reason why the political outcome has won and theyre consolidating. the u.s. is a marginal presence in syria. it was true under obama. its true under trump. the fact that no one wants to say that. and effectively trump saying that makes it look like, putin won. yeah, at...

There is a way ahead, its just got to be a way that we both can pitch to our bases. >> tammy: that becomes, dan, the question. how far does the president go? does he never sign a bill until he gets -- look, he is compromising. they are already talking about $2.5 billion. the president is a master negotiator. he knows they will find someplace in the middle. unless the democrats justt genuinely dont care. how far does the president take this, dan? >> the president is a dealmaker! hes built buildin...

Satisfaction of some observers. theyre all white and theyre all male. is that a pro or a con for democrats in 2020? >> its being seen as a con from some members of the base. people of color, women and even millennials were key voting blocs that helped the democrats do really well in the midterms. so how well these individual white men do, i think, is based on who their running mates are. for many in the democratic base, they want to see their running mates reflect some of these demographics that...

Instrumental in providing support along the syrian border, as barbara starr just said. there are bases of u.s. forces helping train iraqis and advising iraqis along the border with syria and another base in anbar province. so the president going there, its critically important for him to say what he said because those forces are contributing not on to the fight of isis in iraqs abo but also in syria. right now about a year ago the former prime minister of iraq said that isis was defeated. the cu...

Those troops to syria saying anything that needs to be done in syria could perhaps be done from the bases in iraq. this is an unconventional preds, as you know, but this has unfolded in a scheduled way. and even when they did do so, it was unwraps until they arrived, just a trumps trip was. back home the president has a lot going on but this going to change the conversation for the next several days, ryan. >> you told us at the top of last hour before we had gotten any significant reporting that...
