It was a late night for us at cbs this morning, but were glad to be here in our places. Im gayle king, with Norah Odonnell and John Dickerson. President trump used his first state of the Union Address to praise americans and the impact of his presidency. This in fact is our new american moment. There has never been a better time to start living the american dream. The president touted the growing economy and highlighted tax cuts and other changes from his first year in office. Mr. Trump also condemned criminals who are immigrants and Gang Violence and he challenged congress to pass immigration reform. Democrats greeted the speech with stoney silence. 75 of people who saw the speech approved of the president s america. Eight in ten of people who watched said the president was trying to unite the country rather than divide it. Major garrett is at the white house with details of the hour and 20 minute speech. Major, good morning. Reporter good morning. President trump did something last night he almost never does. He made the story of his presidency about someone else. From the guests he invited and the stories he told, the president made those people emblematic of what hes done and what he hopes to accomplish, suggesting for the first time whats ahead may be less about him and more about the country. The state of our union is strong because our people are strong. Reporter President Trump used his first state of the Union Address since taking office to call for what has eluded past president s. An end to bitter partisanship. I call upon all of us to set aside our differences. Reporter mr. Trump had echoes of campaign rhetoric. Open borders have allowed drugs and gangs to pour into our most vulnerable communities. Reporter he recognized the parents of two teenagers slain by ms13 gang members. 320 million hearts are right now breaking for you. Reporter and called familybased immigration a dangerous loophole that should be scrapped. A single immigrant can bring in virtually unlimited numbers of distant relatives. Under our plan, we focus on reporter that drew hisses from democrats, as there are limits and long waiting periods. The president highlighted his first year achievements, including Economic Growth and stock market gains. But he made no mention of the russia investigation that has put him at odds with his own government. Americans love their country and they deserve a government that shows them the same love and loyalty in return. Reporter he suggested federal employees who showed otherwise could be penalized. So tonight i call on congress to empower every cabinet secretary with the authority to reward good workers and to remove federal employees who undermine the public trust or fail the american people. Reporter the president also tackled north korea, citing two cases of kim jong uns human rights abuses, including the imprisonment and mistreatment of american otto warmbier, who died shortly after urreturning to th u. S. Ottos wonderful parents, fred and cindy warmbier, are here with us tonight. Your strength truly inspires us all. Reporter the president also singled out north Korean Defector ji seongho, maimed as a boy and later tortured by the regime. I understand you keep those crutches as a reminder of how far youve come. Reporter Congressional Republicans know they will run for reelection this year up against the president s low approval ratings. The speech was specifically designed to give them room if they need it to say they identify with americans who represent the president s policies and not necessarily the president himself. Thank you, major, so much. The official democratic response came from a high school auto repair classroom in fall river, massachusetts. Congressman joe kennedy ii promoted the democrats priorities and accused the president of dividing the country. It would be easy to dismiss this past years chaos. Partisanship, as politics. But its far, far bigger than that. This administration isnt just targeting the laws that protect us. Theyre targeting the very idea that we are all worthy of protection. Kennedy did not mention the president by name but he did say that, quote, bullies have never matched the spirit of the american people. Congress will decide the fate of much of the agenda the president laid out last night. And approval is no sure thing. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill with the odds of success for some of the president s plans. Nancy, good morning. Reporter good morning. Immigration is the one issue that has to be resolved first. Everything here on capitol hill is essentially frozen in place until then. The challenge is that the president laid out the four p l pillars of his immigration agenda last night, and democrats deeply oppose two of those pillars. The ones that we spoke to after the speech said they can accept tougher Border Security in exchange for a path to citizenship for those socalled dreamers, young people brought to this country illegally as children. But democrats oppose the president s proposal to end the Visa Lottery Program and especially to restrict familybased immigration. Oregon senator jeff merkley told us the president is using dreamers as, quote, a right wing bargaining chip. But republicans noted that its going to be next to impossible to get house conservatives to go along with this dreamer plan if it doesnt include tough new reforms. One issue both sides were hoping to hear more about last night was opioids. The president did have this emotional moment where he addressed the drug epidemic by introducing a Police Officer and his wife who had adopted a baby from a victim of heroin addiction. But while President Trump said he was committed to addressing the problem, members of congress from both sides wanted to hear specifics and they didnt last night, john. Nancy, thanks. Democratic senator joe manchin from West Virginia is with us from capitol hill. Senator, good morning. Good morning to you and gayle and norah. Good to see you. After the president s speech last night, will it be easier or harder to work with the president , for democrats . I cant speak for the rest of my caucus, i really cant. Were all americans, whether youre democrat or republican, youve got to make this place work and youve got to reach across the aisle. Out of respect and civility, i showed respect for the president. A lot of the things he said, i liked. I have to look at the details now, how we can fix infrastructure, how we can attack the opioid addiction, how miners can get their pensions paid for. Theres so much we need to do, john. Just to sit there and frown is not going to fix anything. Lets embrace each other and try to make it work. Are you talking to your own party there . I do. I speak up, and theyve been very courteous to me. I dont have a whole lot that comes from the same demographics that i come from or believe the same things as me. Im right in the middle, john, i try to find the best on both sides. I probably vote in the middle more than anybody else. If i can go home and explain it, i can vote for it. If i cant explain it to West Virginia, its not something i vote for. What did you hear that could win bipartisan support . Infrastructure, my goodness, ive never seen a pothole that belonged to democrats or republicans. I thought potholes was all of our responsibility. So infrastructure, just basic infrastructure, Rural Broadband high speed, all the things we need to reinvigorate our economy. Ive said this to the president. Ive said, the stock market is doing great, everybody is boasting about the economy. I want West Virginia to have the same opportunities. And that means diversifying our economy and working with us. So im going to embrace everything i can to make it better for my state. I think we can do that. He raised eyebrows a couple of times last night, one in particular, when he called on congress to empower every cabinet secretary with the authority to reward good workers and to remove federal employees who undermine the public trust or fail the american people. How did that land with you . Let me tell you, when i was governor, i know where hes coming from because hes used to the private sector with bonuses and incentives that reward people for their good work, outstanding services. But its hard in public service. So what i always said, give me the budget for my agency. At the end of the year, if my agency has performed up and beyond, lets say i had x amount of dollars left and i have 40 people in one agency or a hundred people, and divide that and give them basically some incentive and rewards for what they have done. To follow on gayles point, i think some are concerned at that suggestion, that cabinet secretaries could do whatever they want, could apply to the fbi and Justice Department. Absolutely not. Theres three branches of government for this great democracy. Were the greatest democracy on earth, okay, with the greatest history. With that, its because of the rule of law and three branches of equal stature. Were going to exercise that, were going to protect that vigorously. Things that i agree on, things that i say to the president , trust your judicial system that we have, let the system work its will, it will be fine. Senator, youre on the Intelligence Committee. Youve had a chance to look at the work the fbi has done. Is it tainted, is it crooked, or is it straight up . I have the utmost respect. Ive been able to work with these people, fbi, cia, on down. If anyone would take time to meet with the dedicated people we have, they dont do it for fame or fortune, john, they sure dont. They do it because of the love and patriotism they have for our country. They are the best of the best. The republicans on the House Intelligence Committee have voted to release the nunes memo. The president told a member of Congress Last night, 100 hes going to release it, despite the fact that the fbi and Justice Department have urged him not to. Would you say the president is wrong to release that memo . I would definitely say, mr. President , please dont do that, it is wrong, it is absolutely wrong. First of all, he wont even reveal his sources, devin nunes. This was a man sanctioned by his own Committee Members that he couldnt be on the russian probe. This is a person basically that kind of shoots from the hip. I said, nunes has neutered the credibility of this Intelligence Committee on the house. The senate Intelligence Committee is the only thing that we have left that can put confidence in the system and also into the investigation. What he is doing is just wrong, just throwing caution to the wind and trying to trash the whole judicial system, is absolutely so wrong and irresponsible. Any member of the Intelligence Committee knows better than that. The president appears to be doing a bit of a moon walk when it comes to talking to special counsel mueller. First he said i look forward to talking to him, then he says if my lawyers allow it, now thaters speculation he may try to fire special counsel mueller. Lets talk about firing of mueller. I pray to god that doesnt happen for the sake of the country. For the presidency and his administration, that would be the absolute wrong thing. I think what youll see is congress cohese around the system to protect mr. Mueller. I believe that would be a wrong move. And watch and see if they move on rosenstein first, thats the chain of events that would happen. My recommendation, let this play out. Let us finish this investigation. Let mr. Mueller do his thing, and the facts, you know, the facts and the tooth wiruth willu free. Senator manchin, thank you. Norah, thank you, john and gayle, thank you so much. Cbs news contributor ed okeefe is a contributing editor for the washington post. Good morning, guys. He raised some eyebrows when he talked about the possibility of firing federal workers. What did you make of that . Look, that has a lot to do with what went on at the department of veterans affairs. There was bipartisan support for making those changes. More than anything, gayle, that was designed to appeal to the base. A lot of people on the republican side, a lot of his supporters, loved that he talked about this during the campaign, and appreciate that they were able to make good on that promise last year. I think what hes suggesting here is that if there is some other agency that does this, perhaps they should have the ability to do that. Youre right, it will bring pause to some democrats and others concerned he may be trying to meddle at the fbi and Justice Department. What youre talking about there, ed, is the subtext underneath the speech, the way it was received by democrats and republicans in the room, which may not be recognizable to everybody. How did democrats seep the spee receive the speech . Bluntly, they didnt like it, frankly. A lot of things he said just simply dont register with them at all. They were especially upset with the way he characterized immigration, the fact that he tried to equate gang members with dreamers and sat there and endorsed legalizing the status of 1. 8 million dreamers but at the same time was suggesting that some of them or some young people that come to the country are danger and you say should be punish are dangerous and should be punished and sent away. This is an urgent situation on capitol hill that has to be addressed in the coming days. What is the status of immigration right now on the hill . Republicans and democrats are supposed to be talking about it, john. But republicans are leaving town, theyre all headed to West Virginia for the next few days to talk about the year ahead, leaving democrats in washington uncertain of how this issue will play out. Youve only got about a week or so left before the next deadline. There have been conversations under way, but you talk to people like dick durbin, democrat from illinois who is involved in these conversations, and last night he said that speech did nothing to help the situation. But he made a good point, these state of the Union Addresses are given and often quickly forgotten up here on capitol hill. Ed okeefe, thank you so much.
