Either support the bill or blog for g. O. P. Efforts to europe and the government. This, at the white house is accusing democrats of playing politics with peoples lives, as the shutdown drags on. Placing the blame on House Speaker nancy pelosi. Watch this. She wont even have a conversation with the president. She was very clear that if we did everything the democrats wanted, if we voted for every piece they wanted, then they would talk to us. When the president with a forger is a proposal, fine, i will do whatever you want, we have a conversation with me about Border Security . She said one word. No. Thats where we stand right now. Melissa democratic senator Richard Blumenthal says its the president standing in the way of government reopening. Watch this. There have been negotiations, but there will be no successful negotiations until the government reopens. The reason we are in this dilemma is that the president has made demands, and is simply insisting on a vanity project. A campaign promise, or applause line. No president should be able to take the nation hostage to achieve a personal triumph. Melissa in the meantime, the Washington Post reports Senate Republicans are now standing staunchly behind President Trumps demand for border wall funding. Citing interviews with more than 40 republican senators and aides. Only six editors tell the post the government should reopen without wall funding. This, just weeks after the g. O. P. Led Senate Passed a spending bill excluding funding for the wall. The president today tweeting, never seen a Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell and republicans so united on any issue than they are on the humanitarian crisis and security on our southern border. If we create a wall or barrier which prevents criminals and drugs from flowing into our country, crime will go down. By record numbers. So no one better to talk to about what the Senate Majority leader has two due now than you, since you used to be his righthand man. He said something on saturday, everybody has made their point now and its time to make law. We know where everyone stands, we know what they want and what they dont want. How does he facilitate all these people coming to the table . Because there is a deal to be had. Everybody wants something, everybody hate something prayed lets trade. How do you do it . Josh there absolutely is, this has gone on long enough. I think the backdrop to the Senate Action this week as of the senate, Mitch Mcconnell in particular, being absolutely fed up with Speaker Pelosis response last week. In particular the letter that she sent to the president denying him the opportunity to have the state of the union. That is way outofbounds. Its completely unproductive when it comes to actually coming to a solution. What we saw on saturday with the president announcing the compromise path forward should be something the democrats can support. Remember, we have had shutdowns over everything short of war and peace. Entitlement programs, a massive disagreement. This is over 4 billion in the context of a 4 trillion budget. Melissa how do you get them to come in and say, we see this, this is not acceptable im a but we want is this. Tell us qui rasks. Can Mitch Mcconnell do that can he come in and say, heres what we want instead . Josh i think what happens is they will be pressure and allow democrats. Particularly new democrats on the house who ran under the metal being pragmatists. When youre looking at a 4 billion discrepancy in the four chilean dollars budget , theres ways to be. Theyre going to have to look for constrictions constituents. And see that Nancy Pelosis formula of saying no isnt working. How do we get it done, and get a hundred thousand people back to work . Perhaps they want to get something done that i said it was going to run on, which is dhaka and every thing else. This is an opportunity for compliments for both sides. They can walk away sincerely and look at their constituents and say, ive done something here. The question is whether Speaker Pelosi, who is tenuously sitting on top of the conference that doesnt really support her, actually can hold people back. Harris i would add this, because you mentioned those people who Mitch Mcconnell might try to force. Like senator doug jones, who took over roy moores or, beat roy more in that state for the senate seat in alabama. This is a guy who has voted no on immigration, no on cavanaugh, no one spending cuts, no on abortion, and a very red trump state. Now youre going to force them to be in a position to say no to opening the government. You can talk optics all day long, but now we are at the point of action. If democrats sit on the aisle that says, we are going to say no even to an idea that has some of our former yeses in it, you asked the question. Can senator mcconnell do it . I think he can. I think he says game on, and this is the game afoot. This is the bill we passed the senate. If they can get it through the senate. Melissa jessica, what do they want in exchange . The president wants the Border Security funding. Hes offering daca. The jessica hes not, though. Hes offering a three year deal. Melissa what do you want, five year deal . Jessica permanent status or citizenship for dreamers. Today the Supreme Court took a step in saying they wont take up the daca issue, saying that the Lower Court Ruling will stay in place. Which means that the recipients are protected. The extended protections, the thing that we already have. What is really most dangerous is the drafted changes to be a silent process. Melissa i understand those points in everybodys talking about what they dont like, but im saying this is a golden opportunity. You say that they bring permanent status for daca . Jessica i think it certainly has to part of it. But the 11 million to 13 million already here remain untouched. Harris is that with the president had previously offered on that . Jessica no, he had absolute nod. He did not offer a permanent status. Melissa do you think democrats do that in exchange for more money . That indexing for about him he wants a bigger piece of the wall . Because he said, i will do that, but that has to be part of a bigger discussion. Would you do dont not go down that road . Jessica i think some will be open to the conversation and the president is using more flexible linkage with how he describes his portable system. The truth of the matter is, the conversation we are having right here very politely isnt whats going out there in the polling territories. Hes losing more and more support for forcing the portable issue that didnt matter to them to this level the past two years. Suddenly wakes up he doesnt have any control anymore, and he shuts down the government over it. And 800,000 people are going to have to go to food bank lines. Melissa lets talk about how this plays into the state of the union. The tit for tat is frustrating a lot of americans. John roberts is reporting that, as of now, the president has every intention of delivering the state of union at the capitol on january 29th. Heres the Deputy White House spokesman, hogan gidley, earlier. Nancy pelosi does not dictate to the president when he will or will not have a conversation with the American People. The state of the Union Address is set up so the president can explain whats going on with our government and whats going on around the globe. The president has an incredible story to tell about how far weve come in the story economically, International Security capacity. Katie i think thats a good think of the president is giving the state of the Union Address on tuesday, as he was invited by nancy pelosi. Instead of her rescinding her invitation, if she does really want him to be there, and having the courage to do so 100 , she falsely accused the secret service of not being capable of carrying out their jobs. Not being able to secure the venue for this event on capitol hill, which was completely a lie. And she said she didnt care that she was called out by reporters for falsely stating they couldnt handle the situation. Its good that hes going to go up there, i question whether democrats will show up. Weve had them boycott his speeches before. At the same time that nancy pelosi continues to play games, and the president gives them things that they voted for in the past, whether its barriers on the border or protections for Daca Recipients, dreamers. They continued to say no. Hes but many things on the table. I think nancy pelosi takes for granted her voting base and the base of the left. As harris always brings up, shes been protested before for not protecting Daca Recipients in a way that she has promised to do. I think people are starting to notice that when push comes to shove and its put on the table, she is more about politically scoring points than she is about scoring points for the people she claims to want to protect. Harris we will get to this more on overtime at 1 00 p. M. Eastern. But the Tipping Point for me, josh, is whats happening at the airports across the country. A 10 workforce sickout to for tsa. Its affecting the way we do business in this country, because this is a work week people. This is not necessarily leisure time as we wrap up the mlk weekend. Now we get down to the nittygritty. Who do you think that was the most pressure on . Josh i think saturday the president made the first real overture toward democrats. Thus far, Speaker Pelosi said she will give him 1 for a while. Thats not a tenable position or acknowledging reality. Republicans have this white house and the majority in the United States senate. Theyre going to get something out of it. The question is whether democrats get something, too. I would look at this from a moderate Democrat Point of view, to say that this is very uncomfortable. I would be much more comfortable actually getting something done, whether its daca or something in exchange or with the president wants to get done. After all harris can they get the votes in the senate . Can they get seven democrats are doing so they the proposal Going Forward . Then pitch it to the house, and make democrats vote against it if they dont really want in the house . Josh theres an awful lot of democrats in the senate that have been more beholden to Chuck Schumer and their leadership than they have to their constituents. Its going to be a real test. Melissa i want to add this coming in from john roberts. This was sent by the white house director, given that we blocked valuable time over the past week, my team would like to reschedule the walkthrough for this monday if at all possible. Stay tuned and see if that happens. In the meantime, she is new to the president ial race, but democrat Kamala Harris already under fire from progressives. Whats in her past record as a prosecutor that is troubling her partys left, and whether this poses a big hurdle. Plus, some democrats tear into the president on Martin Luther king day. Whether the angry rhetoric has gone too far. We have a hater in the white house. The bursar in chief of the grand wizard of 1600 pennsylvania avenue. Mom hes blinking too loud. Sorry, is that too loud . You dont need any more hormones in your house. Thats why you chose kraft natural cheese. Made with fresh milk without the added hormone rbst. Its cheese as it should be. Ensure max protein. To give you the protein you need with less of the sugar you dont. straining ill take that. cheers 30 grams of protein and 1 gram of sugar. Ensure max protein. In two great flavors. And the army taught me a lot about commitment. Which i apply to my life and my work. At comcast were commited to delivering the best experience possible, by being on time everytime. And if we are ever late, well give you a automatic twenty dollar credit. My name is antonio and im a technician at comcast. Were working to make things simple, easy and awesome. Harris some critics of the president have stepped up their rhetoric, revving the debate over civility in washington and around the nation. This, just weeks after democrats struggled to handle the fallout from congresswoman regime to leaves rashida to lead, rather using an expletive to refer to the present. Hakeem jeffries refer to the president as a kkk grand wizard. At an event observing mlk day. Watch it. We have a hater in the white house. The birtherinchief of the grand wizard of 1600 pennsylvania avenue. Among the things that weve learned is that while jim crow may be dead, he still got some nieces and nephews that are alive and well. Harris meanwhile, saturday Bernie Sanders called the president a recess at another event commemorating quality. It gives me no pleasure to tell you that we now have a president of the United States who is a racist. We have a president intentionally, purposefully, is trying to divide us up by the color of our skin. By our gender. By the country we came from. By our religion. Harris at that same event in South Carolina, senator cory booker of new jersey pointedly avoided mentioning the president in a plea for unity. Let us be dissatisfied until men and women, however black for me be, will be judged on the basis of the content of their character, not on the basis of the color of their skin. Harris senator booker, who is also said to be waiting a white house run, later told reporters, its not about what we are against, but what we are for. Im trying to unite americans because there is not a right or left me to move forward. You move forward by moving forward. Katie pavlich . Katie i hate when politicians make the statements about it not being about left or right. Because obviously it is. The left holds certain principles, the right holds certain principles. The one thing i really do not like is this continuing use of racism as a political weapon. Because it has created an entirely toxic environment in this country that is unnecessary and doesnt allow anyone to move forward, as cory booker would like. At the same time that they are calling the president of the United States a grand wizard, which then implies that the tens of millions of people who voted for him support a grand wizard in the white house. A kkk member, leader of the kkk, that they voted for somebody like that thats pretty offensive. When you look at the reason people voted for trump, it was economic and other kinds of reasons for it but they were sick and tired of being called racist forcibly disagreeing on policy. I think democrats have to be careful here in going way too far when it comes to these types of accusations. Insulting that is the president , but regular Everyday Americans who decided to cast their vote for donald trump. Harris its an interesting point that katie is making, jessica, because its wider than the president. As she sang. It also gets into maybe some of those independents out there, as well, which both Political Parties say that they want. What are these politicians trying to say about americans . Jessica i would add to that moderate republicans, who havent been pleased. Maybe give trump a chance in 2016 because they thought they would get tax cuts and the Supreme Court justices they wanted. But they are looking for a viable alternative. Harris why the name calling . Jessica i think theres a difference between talking abut the president of hospice record or past actions and using kkk grand wizard terminology. Thats absolutely has no place in our dialogue prayed yesterday especially, when we were supposed be committing the life and legacy of dr. Martin luther king, that cory booker have the right message on that particular day. Not to be namecalling and discussing the history of race in this country. The problems that we continue to face as a result. To be constructive about it. I want to add as well that mike pence took the opportunity to compare the president to Martin Luther king, which is obviously ridiculous. And the king family has reacted to that. No one should ever compare themselves or anyone you know to Martin Luther king. Harris why are we doing that to begin with in general . Jessica i dont know why Vice President pence thought that was a good idea. Take that day especially to just celebrate him. Only tweet about him. Do not tear down other american americans. Harris and thats for both parties. Melissa katie makes a really good. Jessica, i love you, i think we have a lot of the same values in that we want equality, we want justice, we want opportunity. We disagree on the policies that would get us to that point. But its not like we think the other one is a bad person. And thats where things get really dicey. You can only control your own behavior, you can only control your own mouth and we say about of the people. My family, we took mlk day as an opportunity to do a Service Opportunity at our church. To mix images for almost come to bring stuff in and work together. I demonstrated to them, you can only control your own behavior. In being good engineers to the people around you. Namecalling doesnt help, but i dont know that the condemning of the namecalling helps. Just get back out of that conversation. Harris i want to step in with some facts and toxic politics if we can. You are also looking at South Carolina, youve got to move these leaders who were there on opposite messages. Bernie sanders and cory booker. But they are there because there are ten majority africanamerican states. I should say, they are politically there. And South Carolina is on the list. It could lead the way for states like mississippi, louisiana, georgia, and so forth. Josh you bet, thats certainly why there is this it because you saw over the weekend. Its sad they have to look at it in the political context. Its well worth celebrating it any context, political or otherwise. I think what i am most troubled by his this sort of race to embrace the most caustic possible vocabulary in our Public Discourse right now. When you have 20 democrats who are looking at running for president , it takes a lot to stand out. I think what you are seeing from some of the candidates is a choice that they willingly make to embrace the most caustic and divisive rhetoric you can embrace, the cost of tearing apart society. Katie theres a double standard between who would hold the cannibal new site. While Louis Farrakhan continues to hope the womens march, Kirsten Gillibrand who is running for president in 2020 marches with the womens march and doesnt condemn them. And yet hes a guy who has called for the annihilation of an entire population of people. Who is very homophobic. They get away with it. Jessica the differences they lost katie but you still have Major Players in the democratic side refusing to jessica i think youre some children should not have done that, but harris getting back to the conversation, Hakeem Jeffries top shelf leadership in the house. Its like you have some candidate who never ran for anything who nobody knows, going in singly things. I will give you a quick last word. Josh i think its indicative of the pressure that each politician is feeling of democratic cyber note now to see something something noteworthy. Unfortunately what is not weary right now is damaging to discourse in the country. Harris Jeff Merkleys asking the fbi to open a perjury investigation into Homeland Security secretary kirstjen nielsen. By he says thats necessary. At the president s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, says they have spoken to special counsel mueller about that bus for you to report on Michael Cohen.

Melissa President Trumps attorney, Rudy Giuliani, says his team spoke with counsel muellers office last week about last weeks Buzzfeed News article which alleged that trump ordered his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to congress. Muellers office disputed that article. Giuliani saying, we commend them for standing up for the truth. There are no texts or emails or other documents to corroborate buzzfeeds claim, for the simple reason that it is not true. Whoever is responsible for this is lying. Buzzfeed news editor in chief, ben smith, says the outlet stands by the report and urges the special counsel to make clear what he is disputing. In the meantime, giuliani also said in a statement that President Trump did not talk to cohen before he falsely testified to congress about plans to develop a skyscraper in moscow during the 2016 president ial campaign. This, after giulianis previous assertion that such talks may have taken place. Giuliani telling sundays New York Times that trump was involved in the deal until the day he won the 2016 president ial election. Then, he quickly walked back those remarks yesterday, saying my recent sequence but discussions during the 2016 campaign between Michael Cohen and thencandidate donald trump about a potential trump moscow project rather methodical and not based on conversations i had with the president. How do you sort through all that close to mike josh is a little tough. Lets start with the buzzfeed piece. Clearly it was absolutely outrageous. The fact that the mueller team felt the need for the first time in their existence to directly rebut a piece tells you something about the veracity of the claims. Remember, there have been a ton of different false reporting about what the mueller team is or is not doing. So the fact that they stepped in here reiterates how egregious they believed the false nature of the buzzfeed piece was. That being said, lets set it aside. The giuliani pieces a little mystifying to me. From a legal standpoint, we are also used to lawyers for anything having sort of a buttoned up talking points the type of approach that reflects their legal strategy. Harris so its not that . [laughs] josh clearly that is not what Rudy Giuliani is subscribing to. The president obviously has a different mission for him. Far be it for me to understand what that is, but its will be confusing given the back and forth on some of these things that i think would be a lot easier to explain if you just sort of got to the end of it first before going through all the machinations. Melissa what do you think the objective is here questioning to clarify things, or to muddy the waters . Katie my only thought at this point is they are doing it on purpose to try and further confuse the situation. I dont know. Rudy giuliani needs to get his story straight, i think. Hes very can contradictory and what he sang. It doesnt help their case in the public eye, which is apparently what he was trying to do since hes going out and doing these interviews. Changing a story, walking back, commenting on issues that maybe he doesnt even need to comment on publicly because some of the reporting might not even be true. His continuing response to these things is confusing and not helpful to the president at all. On the buzzfeed thing, the special counsel has actually come out twice throughout the investigation. Both times it was to talk about how the media is screwing everything up and tell the stories they are putting out there arent actually necessarily things that should be believed. When you have the special counsel coming after you for the false report, on top of the Trump White House combining together as a team for the first time in two years to condemn your story, there are big questions. I want to know who the sources were. Jessica i think we saw ben smith on the sunday talk circuit saying, we stand by reporting, we would like merely to clarify. Theres also an ankle out there that may be the source comes from the fdny indecision and not the mueller probe. Because the fdny was far more willing to say that President Trump had directed cohen to do something than mueller had. On the couch we were pretty safe about it saying, if true, big deal. Rather than sing every things happening on trump is going to jail tomorrow. There was another article on the Rudy Giuliani french. He got in there before had to jump in the shower, where he said, i listen to the tapes. There were no tapes. But if there were tapes, he didnt do anything wrong. Maybe they will say i like her trump, but maybe they wont because saint peters a fan of mine. Harris are those the binary choices . [laughs] those two choices . Jessica im not sure the strategy is to confuse us there. Im not saying that you are wrong there. Im saying that would make me feel better about whats going on if there was some strategy to this. But i think that President Trump, who im not a massive fan of personal income although i respect the office, is not being served well by this managed to get the off the new circuit. They should try to protect the president do their work quietly in offices like normal lawyers. Harris and while the members of the media set themselves on fire, dont hand them a bucket of distraction. Because we need to know where the truth is. If thats where we are going, dont distract us from it. Democrat senator and possible 2020 president ial candidate jeff merkley once the fbi to open a perjury investigation into Homeland Security secretary kirstjen nielsen. Senator merkley claiming he obtained a draft memo that shows the Trump Administration was drafting policy to separate migrant families of the southern border as early as december of 2017. The white house denies that characterization. Now, the senator wants the secretary of Homeland Security to be held responsible for what she told congress. In december 2017, the planning is underway and they are talking about child separation as an integral part of a policy that will deter families from coming to our border. Then we have the secretary of Homeland Security absolutely denying all of this under oath, to congress. And i am just sick and tired of this administration lying to the American People, lying to congress, doing it under oath. Harris a spokeswoman for dhs responded that the Administration Never had a blanket policy of separating families in custody. Secretary nielsen has been questioned on this repeatedly, including this Tense Exchange with democrat congressman Louis Gutierrez just days before christmas. Shame on s for wearing our bag of christianity during christmas and allowing the president to come here and live. Calling the alaris fighting words. Im not a liar. We never had a policy for the patient brain im happy to walk the gym and through it again. A policy of similar separation of me that any family that i encountered in the interior, i would separate. It would mean that any family i founded port of entry, i would separate. It would mean that every Single Family that i found a leak across income we would separate. We did none of those. Harris what do you think us to mark i think it would fix this is conference of Immigration Reform. And its very frustrated that we wouldnt talking about for such a long time. And lawmakers have failed to sit down and do anything. They have instead used it as a political weapon. I think the American People see through it and its dependably frustrating. Harris josh . Josh jeff merkley is trying to fix it i think breed is one of the most part of the members of the United States senate. Guess what hes doing . Hes trying on his 2020 shoes. Over the last couple of months he has discussed whether he himself is running for president. Hearkening back to our conversation a couple seconds ago about what you have to do to get noticed. A guy has legislative record, hes got to run beyond sort of kicking up as much dust as he could possibly kick up. I guess the secretary of home unsecured you find yourself in the cross hairs as a result. Harris jessica, as is the only way to go forth . To just continue investigate and dig deeper . You have the secretary on record saying, dont call me a liar. Jessica but you also have the secretary reversing her position pray there was a White House Briefing where she said we dont have a policy of separating families. Then she had to come back and admit that that wasnt the case. The reason that jeff merkley is on this right now is we found out last week that thousands more children were separated from their families than we knew initially. Yes, people are trying on their 2020 shoes or pass her answer whatever you want to call it. But these are serious issues. All of us here are concerned about the fact that these children were taken from these families and cap that detention centers. And their care is not the part. I dont think its fair at all the seats about grandson and created serious. Josh if he wasnt concerned about it, why would he inject this in the middle of a shutdown debate and see if you get something done instead of grants and a question mark harris thats a fair question. Katie there are things that dhs has presented to congress that would actually change his problem of family separation. I use that term because we call it family separation, but there are thousands of children were being given to men who are not their parents and taken into United States, and they said that there their kids. For reasons to protect the child, they are separated. To make sure theyre not being traffic, and taken back into mexico and paired up with another strange family or parents. This is a big complicated issue than saying the Trump Administration which the Obama Administration did come too. The reason they are coming in as family units come if you come in as a family unit you dont get separated. You get released into the interior of the United States. This was a way to try and stop that from happening and it was a way to prevent Human Trafficking of children. Nobodys talking about the conference of nature of that problem. Theyre using it as a public point. Harris its a huge Immigration Reform package thereafter look look at. Does anybody think thats going to happen right now . With the Government Shutdown . Katie i think you raise the a sound bar to a higher standard, and you change the standards of deporting people here from mexico. Harris or, as josh said, lets get the ball rolling on the topic since we are already in there. You call that to do that. Kamala harris, defending a record as a prosecutor put on her first years president ial candidate, the flak she is getting from the left. And what this may say about todays democratic party.

Liberty mutual insurance. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. My highest priority and what he believes should be the highest priority for the United States congress is that bob mueller be able to finish his investigation. The American Public had a right to know what actually went on, and we can make a decision in the courts. But its also possible that decisional be made by the congress. Jessica read out the gate, Kamala Harris says her top priority will be protecting the mueller probe. She followed up with a list of progressive initiatives on her gender. But harris also spent her first day as a president ial candidate defending her record as California Attorney general. This, after progressive has attacked her for backing the States Department of corrections and denying gender reassignment surgery to inmates. Harris said she did not personally support the decision and that she worked behind the scenes to make sure transgender inmates got the medical care they needed. My clients took positions that were contrary to my beliefs. The bottom line is the buck stops with me and i take full responsibility for what my office did. On that issue, i will tell you, i vehemently disagree. In fact, i worked behind the scenes to ensure that the department of corrections would allow transitioning inmates to receive the medical attention that they required net, and deserved. Jessica a bit of a tough first day but she was certainly ready for. As was Kirsten Gillibrand, i did a bunch of mail cope ups as. Would you think of her as a candidate . Josh i maintain that Kamala Harris will be one of the strongest contenders because he checks an awful lot of boxes for the democratic primary voters. She somebody who i think comes across as very reasonable. Whether she has reasonable views come on the other hand the one thing i never would have imagined is that they one of her candidacy would be an attack for not being progressive enough. But if you look at what theyre talking about there, with gender reassignment surgery for inmates, for prisoners in state prison, its not about gender reassignment. Its about whether the state pays for gender reassignment of prisoners. Somehow thats a new litmus test for a democratic primary voters. It just gives you an idea of where were headed here in terms of their lurch the left. Jessica i would also add to that, melissa, never litmus test was put out there that she couldnt call yourself africanamerican because she has a jamaican father and an indian mother. I dont want to see an eating our own rehashing of 2016, but it seems unfair on day one. Melissa i wonder no, it seems incredible and fair, i agree with you. And i agree with what you said, that she seems like a strong and tough and smart candidate. I wonder how far to the left after go in the primary purpose of the same problem republicans have. If you can have it back to the center and the general. It seems like the test for these democrats is so tough, if you look of the things they are being questioned about. I would ask you, in the case of Kirsten Gillibrand, its a little harder because of the things that she voted for. Then to say that shes not for those positions, do you think that she can walk that line . Especially when it comes to some of those things shoot supported on the immigration front before that she now says she does not support. Jessica i dont think hes as viable a candidate as center terraces. Harris, i want to get you in on this. Harris i want to go back to the comments that were just made a couple moments ago. Because it will think of thought about that hard. My parents come from one of those, on my mothers side, from one of those expletive countries, as the president has called it. Haiti. I never thought of myself as anything other than black. But if we want to go down the road would want to litigate africanamericans, thats so far afield from the economy. Democrats love to figure out how to compete with the record jobs for people who will get me. No matter what you call us. Katie i think of toxic weight continued division on the left. Youre going to parse africanamerican with jamaican or whatever it is. We are american, how about that . Youre in a primary, running a primary on the democratic side to get american votes. This is how you could tell they are running a primary, how far left they have become. For someone like Kamala Harris to have to almost run against criminal justice and against law order, to somehow fit into this leftwing players, it shows how divided the party is. Harris i think we have already been down that road and artful mentor already. We dont need to revisit that, no matter which side of the political aisle.

Thats what the Republican National Committee Members calling for. He wants the rnc to vote on a resolution at its winter meeting which starts tomorrow in new mexico. The committeeman says, so socalled republicans must stop collaborating with the liberal Mainstream Media and sowing the seeds of disunity and the party. In an email to fellow Committee Members, he wrote the failure to pass a resolution supporting his renomination reelection will be seen by some as a sign that we would welcome jeff flake, ben sasse, mitt romney, larry hogan, or another nevertrumper challenging President Trump in the primaries, caucus, and conventions. The rnc has not officially come in commented, but they have told the Washington Examiner that some type of resolution is likely to come up for vote and be passed at the meeting. How do you feel about this resolution . Do resolutions mean anything . Josh no, they dont. Having worked at the rnc, reached out with a lot of these over the years. They are not binding and all that significant. Budget think its a recognition in some ways of the obvious pay the rnc is going to be supporting the president s reelection. Thats not anybody surprised by that is out to lunch. You got universal support within the membership of the committee, but youve also got 85 of registered primary voters that largely think he is doing a good job. Theres not any room in the Republican Party at this point for a significant primary challenge to President Trump. I dont think think you resolun changes that. Katie we have some rumblings of john kasich saying he may jump in, a story last week of larry hogan, a popular republican voter of maryland. What do you think about them decide to come out at this winter retreat and may be not waiting until next year . Melissa i agree with you that it seems like there isnt anyone whos going to put up a real challenge. I dont know, its healthy, i think, to have anyone who wants to run come out and say they want to run. I would ask you, what does it change among people in the party . Does it have a Chilling Effect on people who might want to come out, or do they say doesnt matter . Maybe it just gives the rnc something to do and talk about. Is that it . [laughter] josh for the john kasichs of the world come and people who would be challenging the president largely from the left, nothing the rnc is going to do will deter them from that message. That is their lane and they are sticking to it. Katie we dont like to scratch we just on the left segment the public democrats. Will they say trump is going to be the guy, why do they have to state the obvious . Jessica i think democrats have so much on the plate ran out of the were divided. Other than that, i dont think they care. I would add to this with the president probably would like to see the rnc do some sort of unity resolution because you not much has loved loyalty. He works closely with them. Hes been a prolific fundraiser for the rnc. They have a good relation ship with one another. Im sure there is a tweet ready to be fired off of saying, the votes are in and im the popular republican in the history of the world Ronald Reagan aint got nothing on the i imagine that has something to do with it. Josh i will say, what carries more significance in my mind that a resolution is how the integrated operations have become. Thereve been a lot of articles over the past few days. Its actually pretty impressive how the trump reelecting team and the rnc have been working at this point. Its not the easiest marriage. In this case, its proving to be jessica that brings a point about the challenges, because i dont think that john kasich or jeff flake will be deterred by this. But how can they build a data game as strong as the trump team and the rnc to get a postmark you cant. Is it even viable or something you want to show up and have a few debates . Katie josh, are they learning lessons from the 2016 campaign . Because there was a split all the way up until the rnc convention, which is why they hired Paul Manafort to make sure all the delegates got in line. Some of you theyre just trying to do some damage control early on. Josh any time you try to marionette anything in politics at this level, kind of gets more difficult for them. I think theres probably a tendency to sort of shy away from that this time around. Katie the winter retreat is happening. We will be right back.
