The pulse nightclub in orlando, where the president gave himself a pat on the back and said he appreciated all the congratulations he was getting from people. after that terrible, terrible slaughter. there is -- there is something terribly wrong with him. and in this case, i think its not just a psychological need. it is, as you said, a political awareness that he rules by dividing, by insinuating that some of his predecessors like president obama, maybe they were not as imbued with the christma...

North korean efforts, you know, hydrogen weapon, several long-range missile tests have been done on the trump administrations watch, and this president will try to blame all his predecessors, thats what he does, but im not sure its going to wash. so i think this is going to be front and center. theyre going to have to figure out whether they can do something with china, and theyve got to continue to reassure those allies that are a little nervous by all the talk they hear in the u.s. and somehow...

President spent about five hours today at the trump international golf resort not too far from here. we heard from the white house a little bit after he got there, that he was playing with two pga golf stars and also with a republican senator from georgia, david purdue. perhaps an indication that there may have been work being done on the golf course. the white house never confirms when the president is golfing or who hes golfing with even when he goes over to his properties. today was a rare ex...

It is, as you said, a political awareness that he rules by dividing, by insinuating that some of his predecessors like president obama, maybe they were not as imbued with the christmas spirit as he is. and he also works by quoting the woman on fox news by suggesting that he, probably the least president of the 20th and 21st century is somehow a pal don of christian faith. >> to go back to that brilliant philosopher, trump is always on his best behavior. so his obsession with christmas and having...

Predecessors, whether its obama or clinton or george w. bush that he really he seeks no advice from anyone and i think by the end of 2018 its not going to look very good and hes going to have some explaining for the american people. >> is there room for more ramping up, though, without military engagement? >> well, i think the margin of error is pretty small at this point. i mean, if were going to send bombers up the coast of north korea and someone tries to take a pot shot at one of them and hi...

Important. you know, this white house chief of staff more than any of his predecessors is the thin line between the president and disaster for us all. when you look at his impulsive -- the presidents impulsive nature and the tweets taunting north korean dictators, we could go on and on. thats -- those are the stakes for this white house chief of staff. coming up, a top utah newspaper tries to bring down republican orrin hatch. why a scathing editorial is calling on the states senior senator to...

This over all scheme, the president deserves credit for pushing through gorsuch and tax bill which will widen the gap between the have and have notes and inequality in this country. but he has passed those two. compared to predecessors though he aint done much, don. >> scott? >> you know, i love to listen to these democrats try to describe president trumps first year. on the one hand you have nancy pelosi and others saying that everything the reebsz did, including tax reform is going to bring ab...
