They have leverage. how theyre using that leverage is unclear. what they really want in a daca deal, what they really would agree to has not been their focus as much as flexing their muscle and the leverage. so now if schumer does do what jack says and he buys himself some time, they have to move, they have to ask for real things. they have to come to the table. do you think theyre ready? >> i absolutely think democrats are ready to come to the table. and i would push back on the notion that the...

Much. how it will go this way, he was free to say that because he didnt have responsibility at that time. i do think bringing schumer over and having this responsibility is how you do it. it is under fortunate that we do it in this pressure cooker situation. many peoples politics on shutdown change depending on who is in charge. my view this is irresponsible. in the end, probably less catastrophic materially and politically handle the conventional wisdom says. it didnt end up being that much of ...

This is first time republicans as one party is controlling all houses and the white house. so there is a slight difference. you see in the polling that republicans would be slightly more sglablamed and there has ba question of whether they can properly govern. all that being said, no one wants a shutdown. shooper doesnt want it. mcconnell doesnt want it. they are trying to leverage to see what they can get out of it. >> schumer is trying to offer a short term. even less in exchange for some - so...

>> if youre voting no youre voting no to childrens health care -- >> just to bring people up to speed, there will be no more votes in the senate tonight. all right? now, that means something good and something bad. one, that means youre not going to have any progress tonight. however, that means theres time for deliberation. >> and there will be that short-term cr -- >> well see if what jack is hearing -- hes got good contacts in congress. but well see if that winds up what the democrats will pu...

Hogan. thanks for coming. >> thank you, wolf. >> hogan gidley, cnn now were here with gloria boringger. i would like both of you to answer. if schumer comes around and says, you know what, he wants the d.r.e.a.m.ers here to stay. i wouldnt be surprised if they work something out. >> the person that gets to him last is very often the person he agrees with, and thats why its kind of interesting that schumer is getting down there alone. as we know, they actually have a pretty decent personal relati...

Then you have three. thats how many republicans are saying theyre likely or will vote against the cr. you put those together and recognize where the rest of the caucuses are, it is very clear that there are not the votes to actually move this forward. it is what has been driving the talks between senator schumer, the white house over the last couple hours. the effort by democrats to figure out some path forward. i want to underscore a key point. republicans on capitol hill remain firm and comfor...

Together on. so theyre continuing to move the goalpost and move the goalpost. i heard the discussion between president and schumer was productive. i hope it was. that it was positive. i think we should stay until were done. that doesnt seem that hard. i used to be a school summit. theres not a summit or a school district that would get away with the nonsense weve been through over the last ten years. lets use this as an opportunity to do our work better. >> always good to see you. thank you. my ...

Barack obama didnt get blamed. they said this is ted cruz trying defund obamacare. so there are some weird similarities here. it would be no surprise if he goes back to the white house, if there is a dramatic several series of meetings and they work out some crazy deal between them but they have to go back to the senate. >> and mitch mcconnell looking bad and coming out fine. >> this is my question. do we have consequences for any of these actions? it is under clear. >> isnt this what donald tru...

Migration to continue and they want their families to be able to come. that is what they are after. >> they want on on the uncle ad aunt and i dont want the wall. because walls w work. you guys need new voters. >> as general kelly said last night with bret baier, oh when president trump made that promise, he was uninformed. hes involved in issue. it used to be a solid wall -- >> nobody is going to put a wall on the rio grande, that is where the alligators are and that will take care of everythin...

It didnt work. >> dana: the democrats had better hashtags than the republicans, but im going to ask you, president -- neither of them revealed what was said in the meetings. the only thing schumer said that there was progress. what do you think they talked about? >> jesse: they cooked up something where trump comes in and saves the day or schumer comes in and saves the day. well see what happens. schumer and pelosi will, what theyre doing right now is the exact same make use republicans doing in...
