House backed democratic proposal on this government shutdown and that has also now failed, so the question is, so what now? david chalian is our political director and im wondering now, might this failure create room for talks and compromise? >> it could. i think well see the two leaders engage in conversation now that were passed these votes, the leaders in the senate, schumer and mcconnell. what is, of course, going to be noted by everyone as you look at these vote results is that there was mo...

>> nancy pelosi stood up to him, i think schumer would have blinked sooner. >> she caused him to throw in the double last night. he cant even come up with a nickname, you know, the reporting says he was low energy when they came to him and told him that nancy pelosi said the no was really a no. and it is, what theyre saying for the money, the air traffic controller is saying there could be a tragedy that we need to solve immediately and tomorrow being the second paycheck. i think there is a cull...

Could the house get back into session to open up the government? >> we will be back, if something happens quickly, we will be here within 24 hours. >> so everybody is on a 24 notice here that they notice? >> everybody is on notice. if you cant make it back, people are spending the weekend. >> finally, what is the speakers role with chuck schumer right now. the reporting is schumer and mcconnell are negotiating. well, i assume, we dont know who from the white house has got mcconnells ear, who fro...

Sides coming to the table or three sides coming to the table and well get a compromise. the only compromise that could out of this building has to come from mitch mcconnell and nancy paola giangiaco pelosi and schumer. the president and his team are not fluent and mulvaney never cut a deal on capitol hill. i think thats what well see in the next couple of days. >> where is mitch mcconnell? >> right now hes at lunch with mike pence on the other side of the billing. -- building. >> he says there w...

Woman. those are three of the powerful women who worked for him. were talking about power, weve got to rate it on a curve. and hes looking at nancy pelosi at a very different level of power. and its kind of fascinating to see the difference the way he treats chuck schumer and the way he treats pelosi. now, i think part of that is because nancy pelosi is in charge of a group of people who actually have the majority and chuck schumers not. but i think the bigger thing is trump actually believes sh...

But i think the bigger thing is trump actually believes shes tough. i dont believe he really thinks that schumer is tough. and so hes up against someone who defies his ordinary understanding because he doesnt think of women as being tough. he may think of them as being competent. he always liked the idea he could use them. i had that -- and i dont mean just sexually. i mean use them in the service of his success. but i dont think hes -- and barbara may have said this herself, i dont think hes ev...

Joint session. >> yeah. ? so nancy pelosi controls what gets passed on the floor of the house of representatives and there is control whether or not he speaks from the house of representatives that night. >> whether or not it works for her. >> she has the polls. >> speaking of the polls, this puts more pressure on the president, does it, really? you look as well at the gop and there is a large contingent that isnt in favor of the wall for the shutdown? >> that is true. he doesnt have his party 1...

>> harris: and, as the debate rages on, federal workers will be missing their second paycheck on friday if the deal is not reached by then. this now has gone on for many, many more days -- not just making history, but more than anybody anticipated probably on either side. >> joe: it really has. part of the problem, first of all, with what senator schumer said, that it was made in bad faith -- it was an offer made. i do you say its faith? i dont quite understand the verbiage that is used there, b...

Theres no chance. >> the proposal outlined by donald trump that we will consider in the senate is the only proposal currently before us that would be signed by the president and immediately reopen the government. >> minor leaders took schumer is holding out hope that the republicans will defect and vote for the democrats plan which already passed the house. >> it would renew all of the portions of the government until february 8th. open it briefly but open them at will allowing workers to get pa...

Empty chair next to vice president mike pence while the president lays out his negotiation, his compromise for getting the government reopened in front of the country. >> harris: whats interesting about that, remember the last empty chair. remember, the president tried to have schumer and pelosi to talk other issues earlier on in his presidency and there was an empty chair when one of them didnt show up then. so, thematically, this has been, "can they sit down at the invitation of the president ...
