Raised by president s fitness and qualifications. He said in 2016 he is qualified he is nominee. Would it be the worse thing to have businessman in office. Now you have 12 months in this . You still stand by what you said . I still stand by. You saw the meeting with white house and democrats and republicans on immigration. That sinned coo of the meeting we always had with the president. I got a chance the country got to see that yeah . Reporter does it surprise you that the president of the United States doesnt seem aware of white houses position he is aware of it. He is aware of it. We talked about fisa in the past. He knows what 702 is. Reporter leader mccarthy said Bob Goodlatte immigration daca bill is good bill. Do you have any plans to bring it to the floor. It is is good bill. Were working on that. It is important we put ideas on the table. Leader mccarthy as you know meeting i just referenced at white house last week the agreement was that the four leaders, lead cornyn, durbin, mccarthy and hoyer would come up with solutions for daca. When people bring ideas to the table that is constructive. That is what goodlatte is doing, that is relevant along with mccaul. The leader mccarthy and other three leaders based on that meeting are having negotiations. That is constructive. That is exactly what were doing. That im confident well get a solution before too long. Last question. Reporter you said daca, you said earlier you expect it to be bipartisan. Goodlatte bill i understand you believe its a good bill but democrats do not. I dont know the answer to that, by the way. I dont know if all democrats are opposed to that but shouldnt we be Offering Solutions . The goodlatte bill is a daca solution. The goodlatte bill brings peace of mind to the daca kids and here is what the security piece looks like. That is constructive. The goodlatte bill doesnt say dont help daca kids. It doesnt do that. Here is one way to solve the problem and give peace of mind to the daca kids. I would think people think that is constructive thing to do. Reporter if only republicans for, only bring it to the floor, and anything we can do to pass and advance causes and issues is constructive to get the bipartisan agreement that is going to happen. Thank you. Well could coast to coast. Im Charles Payne in for neil. That was Speaker Paul Ryan addressing spending immigration and foreign surveillance. That we will cover and he addressed walmarts wage hikes and bonus news today. The Worlds Largest employer giving a big financial boost to the employees. All of it thanks to tax reform. Walmart hiking its minimum wage to 11 an hour, giving eligible workers a 1000dollar cash bonus. Keep in mind, walmart latest but not debted to be the last. Is this beginning of employees seeing windfall from. This is really remarkable stuff. Not just walmart is sharing the well per se. They have expanded Maternity Leave, paid parental leave, and even a 5,000dollar bonus or help for folks employees adopting kid. This is amazing. Amazing news to wake up to this morning, charles. Walmart is one of 130 companies, over 130 that are touting the president s tax reform plan. You just rattle off the whole list of what walmart is planning to do for their employees. Americans will see more money in their pocket, more money for their families. I love walmart. They provide goods and services that are cheap and affordable for hardworking americans and their families and this is proof to americans that the tax plan is going to help all americans, no matter where you stand politically. Charles joe, certainly belies the notion this was tax cut only for the rich, okay . Not just 130 companies. Now two million americans and counting getting direct immediate benefit. Right. These are real people. The sad thing not being said right now that democrats woke up to the news i think they were a little upset. They were a little upset because walmart, shoppers, employees, the notion of walmart as institution is the substance of what we think of as the middle class of america and people who live in the middle of america. These are people who the Democratic Party have staked their fortune in convincing that this tax plan wasnt for them. It is only for the rich. Now here we are seeing great things. Charles ben . I love walmart just like everyone else who likes to get frozen shrimp and machete in one go, but when it comes to walmart main employer for 22 states in this country, putting a lot of mom and pops out of business, a lot of smaller businesses have been closed because walmart comes through, they do have devastates effect on lot of industry in the middle of this country. Lets be a little rational here. They are spending 400 million bucks 1000 to eligible employees, they made 500 billion in 2016. It is flies. I think its a big deal to those individuals, im not trying to diminish that but you know. Charles does sound like youre trying to diminish it. It is kinard to say they put ma and pa out of business. In fact i think exact opposite. Theyre located in areas where ma and pa could not have successful business. Those regions to get the machetes and get the frozen shrimp otherwise, between walmart and dollar general, there are hundreds of, literally tens of millions of americans who would have access to none of that. So maybe theyre providing a public service. Lets not forget, walmarts stock was under tremendous amount of pressure a year ago because of amazon and so forth. People wonder if it was company they should be to count their money they should be doing this and doing that they were on survival watch 12 months ago. Easy to say they could do more. We all hope people do more for their employees. This is company you really points out answers a need. More importantly that the thing democratic agenda pushed, paid family leave, wage increases this is happening without the legislation democrats told us they need. Entrust them with the government they pass laws to do the things. If you unshackle some corporations they will give back and will benefit their employees. Here is the thing, democrats have a lot of explaining to do because they did not support the tax reform plan at all. And youre going it see those up for reelection, especially in the midterms trying to explain why they didnt support it. On other hand im having more money in my pocket for my family. They used scare tactics. Nancy pelosi, armageddon. Theyre trying to scare their constituents where in fact were looking at actual facts that are on the table. Charles certainly for two million americans it wasnt armageddon. It is not just walmart too. Waste management came out with special bonus, 2,000 to every north american employee. Talking about 34,000 folks here. This is just, its a lot of money to a lot of americans. I think it is big mistake, particularly for politicians to downplay how impactful to every american. I completely agree. 1000 bucks is 1000 bucks, individual with families three children at home, a thou bucks goes a long way if youre shopping at walmart, they know a lot of money goes back into their supermarkets and right back into their bottom line. Charles sure. Thats, i guess you would call a winwin. Better than a loselose. It gets back to the tax reform, messaging around it, fear tactics, certainly were unfair. Listen we know there is supposed to be loyal opposition on both sides of the political aisle, there are occasionally times you have to be honest. If youre not reality will kick in. I can tell you were not talking about this hitting peoples paychecks. Wait until february, people get their checks whoa i get to keep more what i earned. It makes me feel great. That is why the left didnt support it and theyre still not going to support it. They dont want to give President Trump credit for anything, especially progressive media as well. Again it is about results. People will see actual results from the tax reform plan. You cant deny whats there. You cant deny the facts as much as you want to. But it depend who the republicans choose to run in midterms. If they have a bunch of sheriff joe a pyoses out there, this arpaios this tax reform will not do any favor because democrats will win. Charles you think sheriff joe will lose . He is matching the democrat been in politics there for a long time. I wouldnt write him off. I think alabama, arizona will be alabama. Charles here is the thing, joe, not to digress too far, i think any republican running for office in the midterm can hang their hat on the economy. We have this qunnipiac poll out today, 66 say the economy is excellent for good. For this particular poll going back to 2001 by far highest level ever. Quinnepiac is poll traditionally polled quite a few more democrats than republicans. Were still seeing positive numbers for trump. I think the Bigger Picture though going into 2018, february, well see some of these wage increases by the tax reform bill but by september, october, you will have democrats trying to tell actual people who got more money their pocket somehow this wasnt good for them. That is a tough sell to the average joe. Charles how do you think they will pivot though . Im already seeing it. I dont think they will tell them it wasnt good for them. They will tell them what ben is alluding to, it will be more. At a certain point, can you really tell people, listen you got a raise, got a job, got a bonus i feel bad for you, vote for me . The left is running on impeach trump, demonize trump, discredit trump. Again the facts are there. Theyre going to have a tough time trying to explain to their constituents why they didnt support this tax reform plan when in fact folks are seeing the actual effects, the benefits of more money in their pockets. Charles although at this very moment democrats poll better than republicans in generic polls. That is testament to donald trump and how much people dislike him. If you went through the Economic Statistics of any president you would assume this dude or this woman was above 50 . He is still who have have you everring in the mid 30s . Irony to that, barack obama was elected he had some of the worst economic numbers in history for any income bent to be reelected. Messaging may be a problem. Peoples real lives if they step into the voting booth or sir staneses ed koch saying are you doing better now when you first gave me a shot. We were doing better after obama eight years, from when he took office as well. Charles didnt help hillary. I get your point. Thats true. Charles immigration negotiations underway right now, donald trump, demanding a wall. He wants funding for it. Growing talk he may actually get that. Right after this. Nah. Not gonna happen. Thats it.

Charles this is spending deal done as immigration battle underway, there is a lot of negotiating but no firm deal in the Washington Free beacon liz harrington. Liz . We have eight days to not only get the government funded but also the sequester caps kick in on january 19th. Then you have this looming immigration battle. You have not a lot of time to get a big deal. It is especially difficult when the democrats are not willing to negotiate on anything. They want the dream act, daca, in exchange for nothing on Border Security or the wall or anything. That is not really how you negotiate. That is not the art of the deal. I dont think you will see a deal in eight days if that is how the democrats are approaching it. Charles liz, essentially were kicking the can down the road again, a phrase used over and over again. Paul ryan, more or less admitting as such moments before the show aired. Yet you wonder because the American Public always voiced so much frustration about this they cant get anything else done in washington until they get this done, can they . Right. I think, a lot of people are really tired of this. Weve seen it throughout the past, since obama was president , just continuously, continuing resolutions, constantly kicking the can down the road. Not getting a longterm deal. Whether it was obama in office or trump now. But at least trump here, he said, hey, daca was unconstitutional. President obama did it unilaterally. It wasnt legal. Were going to give you a deadline of march 5th. You get it done if this is what you say you want. Here are my demands of the we want the wall. At least he is making them, if they kick the can down the road on spending they cant do that on daca, because that will end on march 5th. Charles so what is your sense right now, particularly after that historic meeting, 55minute meeting that we all were privy to watch . Both sides of the aisle, opponents of President Trump, ability to push back right there, sitting at table next to them . What is your feeling . How did that meeting propel this situation and do you think well get a deal done . Well, i think that does propel it forward. Hear you have a president willing to let the cameras in, say what his demand are and plenty of democrats get their say. They really didnt say anything other than, we want to fix this for dreamers. It didnt really offer any concessions. I think the fact that trump is willing to bring them in, say this is what i want, where were willing to work on dreamers, work on things that should motivate them. Look the American People are watching. They see that trump is willing to negotiate. He wants to get a deal done. Now on the democrats terms if they want to be willing to negotiate and concede on anything. And as far as we have seen now, we havent done so, that meeting cant do anything help them get motivated by the voters because they see were so unwilling to negotiate with them. Charles certainly make as hashtag resist a embarassment of let me also, what is happening now, President Trump tweaked the way even speaks about the wall. It brings to mind the fact that democrats themselves voiced, support for border fence, greater Border Security and even passed laws that have that happen and never funded it. So theyre on the record for wanting the same sort ever protection on our southern border, arent they . Right. This wasnt controversial until President Trump was for it, right . And, they can pretend all they want that the wall is unpopular now but the fact of the matter is, it was trumps Signature Campaign issue. It was the biggest applause line at his rallies. American people do want the border secure. They may support getting a fix on daca, but they dont want to prop up sanctuary cities anymore. They want everify. They want the border wall. These are all things popular and something that the democrats should be willing to negotiate on, especially the fact that you have so many on the record that were for Border Security, were for a fence. That just never actually got built under george w. Bush. Charles yeah. Liz harrington, thank you very much. Great stuff, appreciate it. You bet. Charles meantime the house renews controversial section of intel surveillance act after President Trump criticized it. Blake burman. Reporter the joke making the rounds, president had cleanup on aisle 702. This is very serious subject, 702 program put in the place of 9 11. It allows for surveilance of overseas communications. Here is the issue for the president , at 7 30 this morning he shortly after sent out this tweet seeming to criticize it. House votes on controversial fisa act. This act may have been used to help with the discredited phony dossier and so badly surveil and abuse the Trump Campaign by the Previous Administration and others he questioned of the here is the problem, the white house, National Security council, they support this 702 program. So an hour and 45 minutes later came that cleanup from the president. He then tweeted quote, with that being said, i have personally directed the fix to the unmasking process since taking office and todays vote is about foreign surveilance of foreign bad guys on foreign land. We need it. Get smart. Listen to rob joyce, special assistant to the president on cyber issues. 702 is absolutely vital National Security tool. It is something that allows us to understand terrorist threats, keeps the country safe and is absolutely urgently needed to be renewed. There is no confusion on that. Poverty port because of those tweets earlier from the president democrats tried to delay this vote on the house floor. That was unsuccessful. 35 or 40 minutes or so ago this passed on house
