president, they can't control the house, they can control what they knew and they knew they wanted to get back to work. these are people who didn't feel necessarily like the shutdown was exceptionally helpful in having a bipartisan debate. what will be interesting to see over the next couple of weeks is if they can stick together. in the senate, one person can be quite powerful. 25 people can be extremely powerful. this group doesn't all agree on immigration, so we'll see how much that core nucleus holds together. but if they decide to force the issue, they can absolutely keep mcconnell's feet to the fire. they can make sure this issue stays front and center. >> garrett, even if the senate comes one a comprehensive bipartisan plan on things like daca and border security, do you get a sense of how that will be received by the white house and subsequently the house of representatives? >> this is the ultimate political squeeze play. the senate wants to be the first to come up with some kind of plan that they have passed.
