Coalition to have a successful party. when it comes to her democratic critics, i believe she just told stephen colbert that she does not give a flying word that i cannot say here on cable, i guess i technically could. spilling give us a little heads up, we can be pew. i will played a little bit safer there. but she is making it clear that she does not care what critics inside her own party have to say about her. but she said in the interview was stephen colbert that there is a story in the onion this week about how our network was going to devote a second network only to covering her utterances which is funny, but the idea that the right wing invented her just to attack her, she is a creation of the left-wing media, and has faded on all of the programs and shows, and she is a superstar, she does have some personal appeal. if she is going to be treated that way and given the amplification soapbox, her ideas should be countered and addressed. bret: is there a sense that her ideolog ....
Different. shockingly so. a career military man revered by troops and respected by peers could no longer stand by the side of the commander in chief. he said so in a rebuke over president trump s decision to pull troops out of syria. jeremy diamond is joining me now with more on the inside story of how that relationship fell apart. jeremy, everyone can remember trump could not say enough good things about mattis when he was nominated and early on. what happened? it was mad dog mattis. the president relishing in the storied career of this retired four-star marine corps general. perhaps what the president did not realize early in the relationship was how different the two men were as far as their moral compass is concerned and their policy beliefs are concerned. it was yesterday at about 7:30 in the morning the defense secretary realized he needed to speak with the president. the turkish defense minster was threatening to put the kurdish ....

They were flanked by a lot of members who have similar policy beliefs which are different than where senator durbin and senator graham are. that s why senator graham was fired up, and to jackie s point earlier, an individual who is putting a lot of work in with the president over the last couple months. a number of people have told me one very good reason for that is he knew this issue was coming, and this is an issue he s worked on for 15 years. to watch that fall apart in front of him, clearly you know where his head is right now. he said, how does it end? he promised the 700,000 d.r.e.a.m.ers it won t end poorly for them. how do they know that? how does it end? part of the answer to that qestion is what does the president do next, or where does the president finally come down after a week to be polite all over the map? is that wrong? the senator made the argument that the d.r.e.a.m.ers have nothing to worry about because ....
