About what a good day because he got a couple hugs and slaps on the back in dayton? it's ridiculous. we're fighting about the soul of america which joe biden did cussed today and here what the president is doing, this cannot be what the american people deserve. >> the reality is people have been politicizing this moment, it's not been the president of the united states but democratics for president and elected officials. >> he is, rick. >> they are not present but the president is a human being like everybody else and has a right to defend himself being attacked unlike any president during a t...

Meeting with him and trying to kind of go through the motions that typically happen after a shooting, after a crisis in a home state when the president comes there. and it's pretty stunning, frankly, because he just continues to hurt himself and really can't get away from the political day-to-day hitting back, punching back on twitter. i think the real question is going to be how does this issue play over the summer in august back when all these members of congress are back home? do they actually do anything and can this be a galvanizing issue for democrats in the 2020 election? >> so, phil, i...
