Page 2 - Shoutdown News Today

In all candor one of the things i wish the president said last night was i heard him talk about the need to have a guest worker program. because he says were at 3.6% unemployment and we need more labor in our country that. would help alleviate some of the crisis at the border. that is something i think the president should be more forth coming in saying he supports because i do think theres a possibility for partnership with democrats on that. >> joe, honestly its so interesting when we listen t...

Nancy pelosi does become in charge he will actually be able to blame her for this, but i just dont think that that is going to work. >> what about that -- that threat on twitter this morning, rick, the president saying quote, hes going to close the southern border perhaps if they dont build the wall? >> its doubtful that he would do that. he certainly could do that. i think his base would like that but theres a lot of people that would suffer over that and it would be businesses and commerce tha...

Border security money. i think both sides feel this is a limited shutdown. this is not open ended because every expectation is that if it continues until january 3rd, the first active nancy pelosi in power will be to get the government lights back on. so during the holidays, just -- the pressure is not there, and plus many of those republicans who were defeated dont seem that interested in making a deal. they want to get on with their lives, get their next post congressional gig. >> right. meant...

For the wall, so theres going to be a shoutdown. the votes simply are not there in the senate, and i doubt the votes are there in the house, so i think hes got to get realistic. if he wants a real deal, you know, he could have had a deal on border security with dhaka but he walked away from it, but at some point i think hes got to be serious and realistic about his -- his demand in this late hour. >> joshua, your reaction? >> well, i think trump is backed into a corner here. there were signs ove...

>> but we believe you shouldnt shut it down. joining mess david gergen and david axelrod. david gergen, you worked for a lot of different presidents, have you ever seen the oval office used in this way? >> no, including the reagan years when he was a showman in so many ways. i do think actually, anderson, it was good theater. we went into the room where it happens, and we had a sense of what actually a negotiation is like within the trump white house. so i thought that was helpful, but i think...

Unilaterally pull that and deny this house the chance of a vote on this crucial matter. the prime minister and the government have already found to be incontempt of parliament. mr. speaker, the parliament says this appalling behavior needs to be held to account by this house and the people of this country are more and more concerned about the ongoing chaos at the center of her government. when she made -- >> order. order. calm on both sides of the house. order! the questions will be heard howeve...

News every night. do you go low, do you go high.? we cant go lower. its not about going high. we thought maybe we could go in a different direct and go to the heart and remind people about decently and whats at stake and get a bunch of spokes people together that he cant shout down. eric came.up with this campaign and hes going to tell you about it. >> the key that we wanted to do was bring emotional urgency to the democrats message. what trump is so good at is creating a emotional issue. these ...
