They would be terrible for the united states but he would have a deal. in some sense his incompetence as a deal maker is a saving grace for us and his own self-perception is also a saving grace. i -- >> the real guardrail. >> it shoutly iabsolutely is. one of the things with will he so this week is mitch mcconnell said he will bring this to the floor. do we think hes going to do that? how much votes will he get that ann coulter wont scare off? >> mitch mcconnell might be doing this, i will bring...

Well. hes jammed up. i dont think that trump necessarily wanted to actually even work with mcconnell on this. i think he tried to do this with pelosi and schumer and hes failed there. so now hes going to mitch and i think mitch will bring this up. it will fail. the votes are in the senate, not the house and were back to where we are today. its a wasted stage vote. >> wasted is a good place to stop. i can see your face, ron klain. go ahead, last word. >> last word. the first law of holes is when ...

Immigration reform. i look forward to working with my gop and democratic colleagues to make this happen so we can end this shameful shutdown. that from a more conservative democrat. if youre chuck schumer, you cant get 60 votes. youre on the phone to joe manchin saying, you didnt exactly mean that, did you? >> the vice president, the white house chief of staff mick mull vaughney, jared kushner, they did a briefing yesterday and two things emerged from that briefing. its very clear that the white...

Who are going to be held responsible for paying for the wall. they need more money for technology, more money for drones and those are the things we need to offer. theyre in the presidents proposal and he could accept part of a loaf, but he wants to have his wall. his wall is something -- its a political promise he made, but the promise was the mexicans were going to pay for it. all you trumpers out there, dont forget he lied to you. >> the house speaker made it very clear not long after her swe...

Or just a legal status for them at this point in time. >> a three-year extension is not a path to citizenship than it would be a mistake to do that. you can begin to address those issues until youve really secure the border. that is where we are here. the fact that pelosi and schumer are intransigent, and that is going to look very bad in the eyes of the majority of the american people and they run the risk of losing the battle on this thing. it seems to me theres a pretty simple fix here. $527 ...

Put up ten, 12 years ago that she voted for when she was minority leader. i dont understand how in the world shes going to climb down from that position. if putting up a wall at the your border which is porous is immoral how do you agree to something? so i think that while the democratic base is sticking with her and schumer, independence may start to weaken because this position, this frankly preposterous for someone who is supposedly interested in serious law making. >> our jeff paul had had a...

Systems. its both. maria: so in terms of allocating capital toward defense, is that in jeopardy in any way as you look to fund the government til september? >> that has to be an absolute priority. i mean, thats what were talking about when we talk about border security, supporting our military, supporting, you know, our law enforcement. those are fundamentals to keeping our country and our people safe. thats got to be an absolute priority. maria: senator, let me end where i began, and that is on...
