thank you gentlemen for joining us. curt, you first. the president giving a big public show of support to the senate majority leader someone he has very publicly rebuked for pailing to repeal and replace obamacare. this is just two weeks ago. he said the only problem i have with mitch mcconnell is after hearing repeal and replace for search years he failed. that should never have happened. so is this a mending offenses? what's going on here? >> i think the operative word that you said was it's a show. it's just for show. there's no sincerity behind it. mitch mcconnell certainly doesn't believe that donald trump is his friend. i think if anything maybe in that moment during that press conference donald trump probably believed that he was mitch mcconnell's guy. but we all that whether it's tomorrow morning or over the weekend or a week from now he's going to end up criticizing mitch mcconnell. and he has these irreconcilable forces here. you cannot say on one hand steve bannon is a good friend of mine, i support what he's doing. i understand the frustration that he represents with members
