chuck schumer's reaction to that. >> why would he do this? why would he raise people's rates when he was only stated reason is petty, as childish, is on presidential? you don't hurt innocent people mr. president. that is not presidential, that is not what an adult does.

i chuckled about chuck schumer in new york. he has been all over the road with bipartisan worker was genuine about that? >> i would like to say, if everyone watching it come to my house over the weekend and talk to my liberals, those numbers are not so phony. moving on to what chuck schumer is actually capable of doing here. we discussed his last week on "outnumbered." we want to compromise but only if you meet x, y, and z. it is not clearly fair. we note democrats know that they do not want to reduce taxes for the highest earners. i think that will be a sticking point there. i think with the president needs to do in the congress needs to be aware of is that there are some republican senators who are deficit hawks. they want to know about whether the proposal will be revenue neutral. i think chuck schumer is more difficult to get the deal, but when you look at the mansion, heidi high cam, people who will be up for reelection where his support is waning, but still there. we saw that poll. 40% of the counties that trump won, they

chuck schumer outlined the plan that his party had failed to articulate a strong, bold program for the middle class and those working hard to get there. he bowed they would not -- he vowed they would not repeat the same mistake. is -- joining us is albert hunt, mike barnicle -- i am pleased to have them here. out, what must they do? l: they are in bad shape right now. we talk about washington -- there have been parties and worse shape, but they are in bad shape all around the country. the republicans control ready for governorships, 68 of 99 state legislatures here at it is a party that doesn't have a very good foreign club now. ideas matter. they have to develop a better message. 2020 is much too early to talk -- next, let's do it year and they have lots of negative stuff to run up against trump on, but they have been totally outdone by the republicans of the last 10 years. charlie: nero? neera: i don't -- charlie: neera? neera: i don't disagree. the party doesn't have enough -- it has been blocked out of a lot of state legislatures, particularly in the midwest. 36 governors races in

here's senate minority leader chuck schumer's reaction to that. >> why would he do this? why would he raise people's rates when he was only stated reason is petty, as childish, is on presidential? you don't hurt innocent people mr. president. that is not presidential, that is not what an adult does. >> kennedy: all he does is flap his gums. every time we see him, you can turn the sound down and he would be saying the same thing. you know it hurts? you know it's on presidential? cracking allow that so complex so people lose insurance and more people start dying. that's what's immoral. >> sandra: can i transition back to this question what can i get this done question marks before i think they can now after what happened with the health care bill. i think it's a good sign, but i wish the democrats would have shown up when the g.o.p. bill came out with their own revised obamacare bill. that integrated some premarket concept. when you say they ramp to this build on their throat, that wasn't the case. president obama knew he had the a majority get something throug through. i t

then chuck schumer picked up part of it and others went out. when they don't have a narrative, look at what they've done. russia. they now have glenn simpson testifying behind closed doors for ten hours. they don't know what he said two blocks away. here's my point. this is what the democrats are looking at. russia, they haven't delivered a thing in ten months. they haven't delivered evidence or an indictment. now they need to paint the president as unfit for office. >> brian: i remember where this stephanopoulos thing came from. he gets an interview with nikki haley at which time they want to talk about the war in afghanistan, serious subject. something that has pluses and minuses. he gets one question about that and then tries to get him. seven different ways on charlottesville, looked like an agenda to make the president look bad. if they weren't happy of the speech came off okay. he responds in front of 15,000 people. >> chris: the country wants to talk about charlottesville. it's not just the media. on social media, everyone is still talki

chuck schumer has these left-wing groups demonstrating in front of his townhouse in brooklyn and if he does give them what they want, -- >> kennedy: >> abby: he's not going anywhere they have a really hard time making it not about themselves in front of the camera and doing what's best for the democratic party. the best a blessing for republicans right now is keeping nancy pelosi and chuck schumer in their positions because you can't get things passed like obamacare, so they can hope the democrats can figure out the leadership. >> katie: what is their economic message? he is talking about how they don't have one. >> kennedy: if they want to win, that's what they have to d do. you hear harold ford junior is upset with the president because he has solid branding and a good message that everyone understood and everyone can latch onto during the election. democrats have failed to come up with the same thing and it's about sanctuary cities and medicare for all in a single pair insurance. it may feel good to bernie sanders and progressive who do have these and they are imposing a litmus test

he has reached out to members such as nancy pelosi and chuck schumer in hopes of regaining political capital. the white house is looking to jumpstart president trump's agenda. meanwhile, the article notes, though calls to opposition leaders are the sort of traditional niceties any incoming chief of staff would perform, and kelly's case, the underscore, a larger effort to put the white house on firmer political footing. while some democrats appear open to working with general kelly, others are said to be wary. including his involvement in the travel ban and the ramp up to deportation. by the way, let's get on the record. the huge amount of people that president obama deported never gets talked about. it was kept under the radar. that friendly media didn't want to tell about all the deportation. you see that on this white house, but they are carrying out the same laws. >> allen: the original countries that were part of this came out of the obama administration. if you sit back and look of these countries, these are failed states, they have islamic terrorist organization sanctuaries or

chuck schumer wrote an op-ed outlining the plan that his party had failed to articulate a strong, bold economic program for the middle class and those working hard to get her. he found they would not repeat -- to get there. he vowed they would not repeat. me, the president of the center for american progress. in new york, msnbc contributor mike barnicle. i'm pleased to have all of them here. al, i go to you, first. where is the democratic party and what must they do? >> their only hope is it is darkest for don because they are in bad shape right now. parties and worst shape in washington, the republicans in 1975. they are in bad shape all around the country. republicans control 34 governorships with a switch in west virginia this week. ask the eight of 99 legislators -- legislatures. ideas matter, they have to message, 2020er is much too early to talk about. of negativea lot stuff to run against trump, but they have to develop a party around the country, which they have been giltou totally outt done by the republicans over the last 10 years. i think that the party -- a little like the

we begin with minority leader chuck schumer who talked about tax reform and the u.s. deficit. >> good afternoon everybody. i'm proud to have our ranking member ron wyden as well as

and chuck schumer, al, chuck schumer also said what went wrong is that people didn't know what democrats stood for, just that we were against trump. isn't that all still true right now? isn't her book going to hurt democrat efforts right now? >> i mean, look, the election's in three and a half years for president, and there's plenty of time for leaders to step up. and if a publishing of a book is going to get in their way, they're probably not a good enough leader -- elizabeth: who are the leaders right now? >> we have a lot, and this is always the case when the president and the congress is all controlled by one party. you've got some governors who are going to run, probably a lot of senators. we'll probably have a field of 10-20 people, is i think it'll be a mirror image of last time. we don't know yet. elizabeth: al and korean that, thank you so much for your time. we'll be right back, don't go away. ♪go your own way copd tries to say, "go this way." i say, "i'll go my own way" with anoro. ♪go your own way once-daily anoro contains two medicines called bronchodilators, that work t

be upset with chuck schumer. he's doing obstruction on all your nominations in the defense department, the state department. we've got a war coming with north korea. mitch mcconnell is your friend. chuck schumer is your enemy. make sure you understand what team you're on. >> different points but you guy his equal time. i've got to go. appreciate it. take a look at scott jennings passive face during what you were saying. it was a study in the art of the craft. >> chris, as you know, the nuclear tensions are rising between the u.s. and north korea. this reregigime is responding te president's latest rhetoric. we'll bring that to you at the top of the hour. we send our kids out into the world, full of hope. and we don't want something like meningitis b getting in their way. meningococcal group b disease, or meningitis b, is real. bexsero is a vaccine to help prevent meningitis b in 10 to 25 year olds. even if meningitis b is uncommon, that's not a chance we're willing to take. meningitis b is different from the meni

and senate democratic leader chuck schumer sent a message " sanctions bill shows it is possible for both sides to work potuser to reign in when he dares off-track. should be a model for the future." also today, president trump endorsed a bill to reduce legal immigration targeting the number of green cards that are issued each year. republican senators tom cotton of arkansas and david perdue of georgia authored the legislation and joined the president at the white house. president trump: thank you very much. it is great to be here to unveil legislation that would be the most significant reform for immigration system and half a century. i want to thank senators tom cotton and david perdue for their tremendous work in putting together this historic and every -- very vital proposal. as a candidate i campaign on creating a merit-based immigration system that protects u.s. workers and taxpayers. that is why we are here today, merit-based. the raise act, will reduce poverty, increase wages, and save taxpayers billions and billions of dollars. it will do this by changing the way the united state

you saw what ann coulter and chuck schumer say. what do you think about it? >> it's interesting. they're not entirely wrong about it. obviously a lot of people because of tax credits wind up not paying taxes. the bottom line is, the idea that the united states has a 35% corporate tax rate and the literally trillions and trillions of dollars in profits that get parkeded overseas because of these onerous tax rates in this country, that hurts average everyday americans obviously help corporate america and wall street to fix it but help a lot of regular americans. helps them get good jobs and i would argue that anything that puts money instead of going to the federal government actually into the economy is good for everybody. >> martha: you heard the president's comments there, that he's concerned that he's going to get the same thing he got on healthcare. >> and why shouldn't he be? >> martha: absolutely. when you look at this and you sort of look into what is already being said on the hill, there's a fear, i think, on some parts of people that want to see real reform, wholesale ref

chuck schumer coming out immediately condemning the president for his response. on the one hand they are saying let's all get together and have some unity here, and on the other hand, they are fuelling this fire against the president. >> yeah. let's be clear -- >> -- maybe his response wasn't exactly what they wanted, wasn't exactly perfect. >> let's be clear, pelosi doesn't want the country to be united. >> that's right >> the resistance of the democratic party -- i wrote about this last week in my column in the "wall street journal." the intolerance of the democratic party towards the president is evident each and every day. they can't find, you know, any moment in which they could join with him. instead they condemn him as an illegitimate figure. they condemn everything he does. i get that. i'm going to ignore nancy pelosi and chuck schumer, i just want my president, the president of all americans to strike the right note in a moment like this, and i don't know why he went off and veered off with, you know, on many sides, on many sides. you know, he didn't nee

we have a caucus with chuck schumer. chuck schumer still has a flip phone. chuck schumer, but members have different -- he is on the panel. a wide variety of how that works. you have got to help that member no matter what. screenat the computer and members are more checksingly aware and i twitter accounts and facebook. but you are right we do not know they are from the district, part of the complexity of it. definitely growing and what you need to continue to use. the really patient. wide level of technological expertise by members. try toent peer and i stress to the office that people think of they send us an individual message on facebook, that it is like that -- letter. and my director is really great at that. caucus, therec are competitions at our caucus meetings. putting on board, who has the most followers. in californiark will do workshops for members as well as his staff. we are very aware of the reach of twitter and facebook and snapchat and all of those things. we are really making a concerted effort to make that is part of our completed communicat

and i'm glad to see the better deal that chuck schumer announced. and democrats should be talking about it. but let's be clear, having a pro-choice message and an economic message is not mutually exclusive. and another point to speak to what dana mentioned about the idea of republicans being for contraception, if you remember correctly during the affordable care act fight seven years ago, republicans blocked health care companies from covering birth control for women that worked at religious institutions. >> dana: richard, that is not -- >> richard, as a woman, let a woman explained to you. insurance companies were not blocked from offering contraception. they covered contraception for women's health needs, it was sexual purposes that companies were not forced to cover it. there is a difference. >> they should be forced to cover it in all cases. >> dana: that was the dispute. >> why am i going to ask you to play pay for my sexual active birth control. >> insurance pick companies already cover cialis and viagra? and if they cover the, why can they co

bring you ae'll tweet from minority leader in the senate chuck schumer. great and good american presidents seek to unite, not divide. donald trump's remarks show he is not one of them." cannot rubio said, "you allow white supremacists to share only part of the blame. they support idea which cost nation and world so much pain." that is from a series of tweets. let's get back to the phone calls. we will hear from paul. did you watch the president's remarks? what do you think? caller: i have been watching the remarks and everything else. i agree with him. i was losing to the other commentary when i was on the phone. . am kind of lost for words - announcer: what did you agree with strongly? the way he is running the country and everything else. standpoint.rong announcer: we will go to david and florida. did you watch the president this afternoon and what did you think? caller: i did and i agree with him totally. this country is fixed on racism and i really believe there is a counter racism, almost a reverse racism. donald trump does not support the kkk. he do

it is my pleasure to introduce senator chuck schumer. [applause] >> thank you and my colleagues for their great work. every one of these people who you heard speak puts american workers first. american workers first. last week in berryville, we democrats began to offer a better deal to the american people. the better deal promises three things -- first, higher wages and better jobs. second, lower everyday expenses. third, the tools workers need to succeed in the 21st century. tohing is more central creating jobs and increasing take-home pay than rewriting our backward trade laws that have put far -- the foreign workers workers, thatcan have put big multinational corporations ahead of the needs of hard-working average american families. for far too long, our trade laws have given multinational corporations and foreign competitors a leg up on the american worker. they put the corporate bottom line ahead of the workers bottom line. today, we democrats are proposing a better deal for workers, with tough, tough trade laws that finally, finall

. >> before we go to calls, let's hear from chuck schumer on the floor yesterday talking about the president and what he sees as the president's threats to cut these cost sharing payments. here's a look. >> now, mr. president the american people are looking to congress to turn the page on healthcare and start with bipartisan improvements on our healthcare system. stabilizing the individual market is the first thing we should all focus on. the repeated attempts to repeal and replace the healthcare law as well as the administration's threat to stop making the cost sharing payments that help keep premiums down and keep markets stable has injected massive uncertainty into the system. insurers hate nothing more than uncertainty. it drives them to jack up the costs of premiums and pull out of markets. >> let's hear from our guests beginning with joe antos. >> there's some irony, it's true insurers don't like uncertainty, some irony, insurance is supposed to take care of risks, related to uncertainty. it's a little late. it's really great to hear that senators want to hold hearings in september. bu

we had a read a meeting recently with chuck schumer. he still has a flip phone. not trashing chuck schumer, but members have different levels of sophistication. the other guy in the next room is probably tweeting well he's on the panel. you have to be patient because you have to get to know how that member operates. i think members, depending and more increasingly are aware, i checked twitter accounts, i checked facebook, but you're right, we don't necessarily know if there from the district which is part of the complexity of it. steadily growing. it's certainly what you need to continue to use, but really be patient. we have a wide level of technological expertise by members. just be patient. i know sometimes i try to stress to the office, people think that they send us individual message on facebook that's like that letter and we've got to start to make sure that our culture as well but i'm not sure for all there yet. >> let me say most offices now, whether or not chuck schumer has a flip phone, i'm sure he has people in his office now that are absolutely doing

we begin with minority leader chuck schumer who talked about tax reform and the u.s. deficit. >> good afternoon everybody. i'm proud to have our ranking member ron wyden as well as senators stabenow and bennett members of the finance committee joining us today. earlier today, i've got to get my letter. here we are. earlier this morning 45 members of the senate democratic caucus sent a letter to the president and leader mcconnell and chairman hatch laying out our preferred path for tax reform. we have three simple requests that are overwhelmingly supported by the american people first we believe any tax package should not increase taxes on the middle class and should not cut taxes for those in the top 1%. we don't want any tax cuts for those in the top 1%. they are doing fine already. it's the middle class that meets their relief. second, unlike with health care tax reform should follow regular order. it's a subject that deserves hearings, committee mark-ups amendments and a robust debate with input from both sides. we would plead with our republican colleagues not to

we had a meeting recently with chuck schumer. he still has a flip phone. not trashing chuck schumer, but members have different levels of sophistication. the guy in the next room is probably tweeting while he's on the panel. you have to be patient because you have to get to know how that member operates. our offices are seeing those comments. i think members, depending and more increasingly are aware, i checked the twitter accounts. i checked facebook, but you're right, we don't necessarily know if they are from the district which is part of the complexity of it. it is definitely growing. it's certainly what you need to continue to use, but really be patient. we have a wide level of technological expertise by members. just be patient. i know sometimes i try to stress to the office, people think that if they send us an individual message on facebook that's like that letter and we've got to start to make sure that our culture as well but i'm not sure we are all there yet. representative schakowsky: let me say most offices now, whether or not chuck schumer ha

they showed it to chuck schumer who's on board. senator blunt spoke for a lot of senators when he said if it means going back before tax reform, i don't think we could do it. senator hatch says we are too divided. we have to move on. reportedly he changed his mind but they are very torn up. publicly they are too afraid to admit they want to leave this behind and go to tax reform. they are so torn. but then a few hours later they say we have to keep working. as of tonight, we don't know what they are going to do. >> bret: they need a trillion dollars to get the tax breaks to the place where they think it's going to make a difference. >> they needed to do it by now. what an argument against republicans that they could not do the one thing they promised to do for four cycles. and of a president who was willing to sign pretty much whatever you put forth as long as it was something he could sell as a repeal of obamacare. he didn't care much about the policy details. they still couldn't get it done. >> bret: next up, foreign threats. tru

and trump went after the senate minority leader chuck schumer for obstructing the bill. >> you know, you listen to schumer and before he even knew what the plan said, he was saying death, everyone's going to die, death, death, death. >> stephen: now, to be fair, he was actually quoting chuck schumer's hardcore metal band, malignant schumer. ( applause ) so nobody knows if this lean on them at lunchtime is going to work. but the president is hoping it lives upit to rls eaier tweet, "the republicans never discuss how good their health-care bill is. and it will get even better at lunchtime. the dems scream 'death' as o- care dies." oh my god, that last part is almost poetic. "the dems scream 'death' as o- care dies." it's actually iambic. you know, its true what they say, if you leave a man way brain of a hundred monkeys in front of a keyboard long enough, eventually he will write shakespeare. ( applause ) ( cheers and applause ) ( cheers and applause ) "the dems scream 'death' as o- care dies. alas, poor yorick, he was covered by trumpcare." ( applause
