Allowed in this country as a citizen. i think trump got it right the second time, which was, i do care about the details, the american people care about the details, they do want border security, many americans who voted for trump want the wall, and the idea that we have to have a shutdown of the government to solve this problem, i dont get that. i asked dan, dan, you were in the obama administration. you had, in the first two years, 60 senators, democratic senators, who had a big majority in th...

As i understand it, invited five other members of congress who were not in favor of immigration reform or in a very harsh sense, and they were there to refute any assertions that we made that this was a good policy. >> so sandbagged, thats strong language. but the question, and youve heard this before, the president will listen to whoever is in his ear last. do you think thats whats happening? >> when i first heard donald trump say, ill sign anything or something to that effect, i shuddered. imm...

And look, she was in a tough position. she knows if she seems to be seen as undermining her boss, he will probably tweet something and shell end up in the penalty box with jeff sessions and the others, but she was under oath and she was trying everything she could not to hurt the president or perjure herself at the same time. and she came pretty close to the line there. >> lets talk about something more important, and thats getting this daca deal done and getting immigration reform done. lindsey...

Overly office meeting on immigration, the one where the president used vulgar, racist language about african countries. well, were learning he also slammed the congressional black caucus. im going to talk to one of the leaders of the cbc. thats a moment away from now. i want to get to phil mattingly on the breaking news of the government shutdown which could only be three days away. phil, hello, how are you? government shutdown could happen in days and talks of immigration a hot mess. fill us in...

There is something theyre working on that one democrat told me earlier on that is, quote, a flat-out joke. where does that leave democrats and republicans on immigration? you have senator lindsey graham, a republican, attacking the presidents staffers about this whole issue. you have senator richard durbin, a democrat, a leader on this issue basically attacking everyone at the white house about that issue. the reality right now is this. republicans have put immigration to the side. they are sayi...

Way to fund the government and address the needs of states and territories and families and children all over the country. >> reporter: guys, that is where the dynamics stand. that is not considering or taking into play the comments of the president from the private meeting last week in the oval office. that hardens the resolve of the democrats who will not move forward on anything if there is no daca resolution. the reality they say is there is no trust with the white house and more importantly...

Nancy pelosi made that clear. that so the plate of paul ryan. now on the plate of senator mitch mcconnell. they cannot pass a government funding resolution on their own. they need democrats support. take a listen to what senator chris coons said on monday. >> myself cluincluded, we will fund the government without a daca deal. the republicans have failed to come up with a way to address the vital needs of families and children all over the country. >> reporter: guys, that is the dynamic stands. ...

Would introduce a resolution to censure the president for his remarks. now, keep in mind, this is not something republicans are likely to come along with. so it will be largely symbolic. but for democrats, it underscores the outrage with the reports of the comments, that the comments were actually made. and as one democratic aid told me a short while ago, we dont want this to go away, this shouldnt go away. they want to shine a spotlight on this, wolf, and that is what they will try to do next w...
