Anyway -- >> at a time when the economys booming. >> exactly. >> were supposed to be cutting deficits when the economys doing well. >> and shifting to a different topic, kind of the fallout from this race in alabama, now theres a democratic senator from alabama, first time in 25 years. and i want to take you back to something that donald trump, long before he was president, said about a candidate from a different political party in a blue state winning a race when there was a big piece of legisl...

Viewpoint, that he was not -- so barack obama was going to start facing pressure internally from his own party if they were going to move forward and not have scott brown seated first. two, scott browns victory in that senate race was about the health care bill. in many ways not like in alabama which was not at all about the tax bill. it is certainly worth pointing out that mitch mcconnell was in a different place then than he is now. donald trump was in a different place then. theres no doubt a...

D.r.e.a.m.ers. it makes sure that the democrats have more leverage and the republicans have to stay put. and if i were the president, he must be incredibly concerned about what the senate is going to look like by the end of 2018. and if i were members of the senate that are running, that supported roy moore, like ted cruz, when he was asked whether or not roy moore should be seated, and he said sure, why not, those are going to come back and hurt him in a texas primary. the fact today that the t...

Senate that are running, that supported roy moore, like ted cruz, when he was asked whether or not roy moore should be seated, and he said sure, why not, those are going to come back and hurt him in a texas primary. the fact today that the texas democratic party said they were going to contest every single seat is a demonstration that not only does the democratic party believe there is a wind in their sails but more importantly that the american people are paying attention, that they are partici...

Roy moore -- >> right. >> -- right. exactly. and thats not a departure from what they were saying before this, regardless of who had actually won this seat. they were planning on, assuming, and mcconnell said on tuesday, planning to vote with luther strange in office through the end of this session. so, you know, to a certain extent, thats not a surprise or a change. there, of course, was one republican who voted against this before, senator corker, because of concerns about the deficit. once jo...

>> my own personal opinion, the attorney general himself, mr. sessions, is nowhere to be found. you and i have had this conversation for a few minutes and we dont mention his name. mr. rosenstein is actually in charge of the department of justice at this point. he is the most senior person and the one that put mueller in place and the one that provides the day-to-day oversight within the department of justice as to what is going on. its one of the worst mistakes to happen in order to put this in...

Female. what is he alleging happened behind closed doors with her. >> hes not alleging anything. he is talking about the way our systems is. politicians repeatedly beg for money. thats not something new. and that comment isnt new. if you look back at past comments this president has made he used that same terminology many times in reference to men. there is no way that this is sexist at all. this is simply talking about a system that we have that is broken in which special interests control our ...

Arent true. im not voiding that. that is a fact. but you know, further than that is not constitutional for the senate to do that. you have to look at the constitution that were sworn to uphold. it delineates what the senate can do and cannot do. >> so is that the case? we put that question before fox legal analyst judge andrew napolitano. he said if moore wins the election, the senate must seat him. however once hes seated, they can investigate his worthiness for office. that investigation can e...

Hes talking about the way that our system functions as it is. that politicians repeatedly beg for money, thats not something new, and that comments frankly isnt something new. if you look back at past comments this president has made hes used that same terminology many times in reference to men. there is no way that this is sexist at all. this is simply talking about a system that we have that is broken in which special interests control our government. and i dont think that there is probably ma...

System functions functions as it is. that politicians repeatedly beg for money. thats not something new. that comment isnt something new. if you look back at past comments that this president has made, yeah, hes used that same terminology many times in reference to men. theres no way that this is sexist at all. this is simply talking about a system that we have that is broken and which special interests control our government. i dont think theres probably many people that are more controlled by ...
