>> yeah. agree with cotton and perdue. the president has given us until march to deal with the issue of daca. and the question is whether you are just going to do that and nothing else. im in favor of doing something on the daca front. these kids came here through no act of their own. thats an example of legitimate case to be made. i dont think we ought to just do that. a dhan migration, doing something about the diversity lottery there are plenty of changes to the legal immigration system that ...

Holidays a little more. so im hearing that the big floor in congress, the democratic leaders nancy pelosi and chuck schumer are equietly negotiating. they are running out of time and theyre terribly far apart right now with democrats still pushing for a daca fix and a solution for d.r.e.a.m.ers. republicans are worried that if they increase spending without offsets and do a daca fix, republicans are going to go off the rails. i am concerned we might be here on christmas as well. >> santa is not ...

Not, which is what democrats used to say -- what republicans used to say about democrats when they were planning to shut the government down. >> because at least on this, kaitlan, on this exchange that we just heard from nancy pelosi, she didnt seem as tough towards the president as senator corker. >> weve seen them get along. the president seems to favor people like nancy pelosi and chuck schumer, but when they came out of that meeting, the understanding was, like, money for the border wall wou...

Immigration. democrats responding by basically saying this is a non-starter. why? >> yeah, were getting two different accounts of that meeting last month between nancy pelosi, chuck schumer and the president. the democrats said from the beginning the president agreed that he would find some kind of legislative fix and agree to one to this problem with the so-called daca fix. the democrats said they would be willing to give a little bit on border security. but the democrats said that according to...

Democrats is not politically palatable for them. this is a problem for the republicans as well and the trump administration. as far as my reporting tells me, there is not a consistent view within the white house about what exactly theyre willing to negotiate on or not. theyve laid out these principles. but also the president has indicated and sent signals in the meeting last month from the white house he was willing to negligent. then the white house says these are our priorities. they must get ...

Tentative framework he struck last night about pushing the wall to a further deadline down the road and doing some sort of codification for the d.r.e.a.m.ers to allow them to stay here long term. see, look, theres a problem here. that is, trump not only said this to schumer and pelosi, he also according to sources i have spoken with, floated this to a bunch of lawmakers earlier in the day. he doubled down on it during a tweet last night. could he change his mind? very well he could. i know for a...

Midterm election year saying we cant trust the republican president to have our back. >> right, right. the question is, does this continue? he said today, made it sound like this was a new era of trump. a flashback of what people thought this president would be like. tri triangulating. and the way hes governing, one question has been can pe expand his tent? seems its something hes trying to do. seems will be to stiff arm part of his base on any number of issues. things that came out of the white...

Points with democrats, they will do anything they can to score a political wedge. >> will they give up border wall funding? >> theres really not an ideological case against border security. most democrats are for border security. so there will be a huge victory terror the democrats to have a legislative d.ive daca fix. >> what will they insist on as part of this? >> you all raised the issue that has sent every other immigration bill off the rails, even if it started looking strong, then it goes ...

-- >> the drooem act but i dont know -- thats what we will be talking about. >> he didnt tell you what that included? he just said that it would have the dream act. >> he said if you pass it, ill sign it, but, you know, he obviously wants some other things, so well see what that is. >> nancy pelosi right there saying that she doesnt want a daca fix. democrats dont just want a daca fix. she wants the dream act. she also said the president said he would sign any sort of dream act or daca fix that ...

You didnt see the democratic leaders yesterday when they were talking tax reform, nor did you see them a couple month ago when you are doing health care reform. the president needs democratic votes. the democratic leaders smartly are trying to gain as much leverage as possible whether its a daca fix, whether its shoring up obamacare, whether its de-funding the voter fraud commission. theyre playing smart politics. its not only the debt ceiling but keeping the government funded through the rest o...
