>> do you think steven miller and joh kelly will blow this up before noon tomorrow? >> there are certain members that will never go for this. certain aids goent along with this. what matters is where the president is. and if, that doesnt matter in terms of senate process. it matters in terms of the house process. i think hell find a wa i to go along with it. >> there with is that right flake. who also took to the floor a couple hours ago. in the middle of the fwovt shut down finger pointing an a...

Democratic senator take to the floor, clearly alarmed. i know on the house side theyve been alarmed for longer because i think the bipartisan spirit of their investigations broke down well before it did, if it has, on the senate side. can you talk bay democrat taking to the floor truly alarmed that the president may fire and set a crisis. >> in the previous incarnation where we had this moment where, as you point eed out, the house bipartisan nature broke down. what we saw was richard burr and m...

View of the 86 reform which was not that great a bill in the end because it went through the same kind of process which made it no more popular in the midterm elections and unwound by 1992. then if they needed the revenue it was a very short lived reform. it wasnt so great. this is a different ifrt. its unprecedented in that it will take the u.s. from a world wide system of taxation to a territorial system for the first time in its history and probably the last. its truly an amazing policy accom...

Another important point about that process, nicolle, remember that big victory lap during the attempts to repeal and replace obamacare that took place at the white house after the house had voted and before the senate voted and then ultimately, they failed. this was a very different process. the president engaged himself in the details. he engaged himself in the legislative nuance. he went out and sold this tax bill. this was something that was really, i think, his signature issue, even though h...

During the house process, but a reason for that. if you repeal and dont replace, how do people get their care? what would the system be? why would insurers stay involved? so sometimes a tweet can mean a lot. lets talk about all of this with republican congressman adam kinzinger from illinois, and first, let me applaud you and thank you for coming on the show today. it was not easy to book your republican brothers and sisters. you did not shy away. we couldnt get anybody from the white house. kel...

Lets pass this, and they narrowly did. are we seeing something potentially similar in the senate? >> potentially, its deja vu all over again. i was thinking how this was playing out like the house process in that way, which is specifically paul ryan had to pull that bill, you know, cancel that vote on the floor of the house mostly because he didnt have enough of his own conservatives, the house freedom caucus wasnt on board. they moved the bill further to the right than it was, they got that big...

Jesse: people are going to die because of the obamacare repeal bill, thats just shock. i cant believe you guys would do that, sean, how heartless of you. but you are getting tax relief and the individual mandate. one of the most popular items from a lot of americans. are you able to buy insurance across state lines so there is more competition? >> you will be. thats the next phase. this is the repeal and replace phase. and there is another part, one of which is the ability to buy across state li...

Critical of the congressional budget office back in march during the house process. so my question is, does the president believe that his discussions with lawmakers about what they want and their concern about the legislation, should it be guided by the cbo score and will it influence his thinking as he looks at the bill? >> i think one of the points that i made last time, alexis, which stands, is that the cbo core function is budgetary and fiscal impacts and not on people and theyve been wildl...
