Be the president endorsing alabama senate candidate roy moore. some people might say the president is not saying anything different he said in the last two or three weeks in regard to moore. democrats refusal to give even one vote for massive tax cuts is why we need republican roy moore to win in alabama. we need his vote on stopping crime, illegal immigration, border wall, va, judges, second amendment and more. jones a pelosi/schumer puppet. saying that is seen as an endorsement, bill. again, p...

And who is right? >> well, there is two avenues to look at, richard. it is not a simple answer so ill try to explain it the best way i know how. from the gop, we promised -- president trump was voted in by promising things and one of the things he promised was tax reform and hes delivering on that promise. now you have to look at health care and everything else. the gop has had so much in fighting that they couldnt get anything done, richard. so we had to come together on this. weve got mid term...

Thats at president or as business leader. just go back a couple of months ago, pelosi and schumer thought they had a deal on daca, leaving the oval office. apparently now the president has backed away from that. if i am senators murkowski, collins, flake, any of these people, i would not be depending too much on assurances they received because i dont think theyll be able to follow through. >> it is not going to be in this bill, at least not right now. thank you, chris. appreciate your time. >> ...

Corporations which are going to do exceptionally well, you have to ask the question with an extra bill pile of money are there workers out there to hire? the unemployment rate is so low, theres a shortage of labor in much of the country. im not sure its going to lead to a new round of hiring. >> the economy would not like a government shutdown. meanwhile, the washington post reports president trump is telling that would be good for him politically. would it. >> no. i dont think its good for anyb...

Beyond his base. im sorry? >> mark, let me this caveat before you respond to the question. if president trump uses funding for his proposed border wall as a bargaining chip in budget talks, and then it doesnt go through, what stops him from blaming it on democrats for obstruction and saying democrats are weak on immigration? >> well, i think hell try, but if theres an underlying government shutdown with that, i mean, hes shown, as david just suggested, an unwillingness to negotiate and deal. and...

For his proposed border wall as a bargaining chip in budget talks and then it doesnt go through, what stops him from blaming it on democrats for obstruction and saying democrats are weak on immigration? >> well, i think hell try, but if theres an underlying government shutdown with that, i mean, hes shown, as david just suggested, an unwillingness to negotiate and deal. and as we know before the meeting yesterday, he tweeted out and attacked schumer and pelosi before the meeting they were going ...

But take collins. collins had specific real concerns. instead of blowing her off, they sat down and listened to her and said we could add two additional bills that she will introduce. bring them up on the floor and pass them. so we will meet your concerns. and that changed her view. so they have been better to legislate. murkowski for example, murkowski had a particular real interest and all alaskans have. she is getting the interest met. >> that is the way the sausage is made. >> what did you t...

>> i dont know why the democrats would give trump a cheap, easy win to sit there and say im trying to solve this problem. i dont know why they wont even talk about it. it struck me as one of the dumbest things -- schumer is a smart guy. this is one of the dumbest things. >> they realize they had been set up for that pretty negative photo op on their part and they called it a stunt. quickly, in the big picture. are they going to push the funding bill? push to show down that might close the govern...

Democrats and the white house, leader pelosi and i believe the best path forward is to continue negotiating with republican counterparts in congress instead. >> reporter: the president added salt to the wound by keeping schumer and pelosis nametags in place at their empty chairs next to the present while mcconnell and ryan conspicuous sat nearby, policy tweeted the in teacher photo up, his stunts more than addressing the need of the american people. paul ryan and mcconnell relegated to props, sa...

Come to the table and talk? >> the president used this mornings tweet to lie about schumer and pelosis record. >> martha: why not show up and call him on it? >> they were going to be props. that scene looked like the set of the "apprentice." >> martha: except there were a lot of missing chairs. >> and lack of leadership. >> he said the president lied. no, he exposed their record of failure. crime up across the american cities and they raced taxes with obamacare. they told the american people all...
