our washington reporter. what's the reaction? reporter: the white house is trying to make this a victory. it is one step toward a victory for them in getting a repeal and replacement of obamacare, but of course, there is a daily long road ahead is really long road ahead.at this point, there is no road that exists mikecould get the 50 plus pence tie-breaker vote needed to pass.that does not exist now. they have been working on it for weeks. now, they are in this sort of lightning round of trying to get it done. you just heard a clip from mccain saying he will not vote for any bill that exists right now. he has changes he wants. we will see what those changes are when he introduces an amendment. now, the needle they are trying to thread is so fine that anything mccain wants introduce could also lose people on the other side.although

it looks like a victory now, if they are not able to get anything past, then any vote or amendment they pass, it will probably look even worse than if they never started down this path. emily: there have been so many twists and turns. do you think today will be seen as a turning point or not? reporter: despite all the pessimism and seemingly impossible need to be able to -- itis bill through seemed impossible in the house at one point they, had to pull from the floor, the members went back, there was also the angst about the republican party, but the house pulled it together and got something through. part of that is because they had the senate at the check, saying whatever we pass, the senate will change. now we have the senate. for although no votes, people who did not want to proceed to debate, they were able to squeak it through to get it open to debates and amendment. once again, reviving something everyone thought was dead. do not count the bill out.do not

resign? reporter: based on all the twitter attacks on sessions over the past 24 hours, it really seems like trump wanted him out of the job. it's been going on for a week that he has been frustrated with sessions since he said he would recuse himself from any matters having to do with the russia investigation, but trump, obviously that feeling has been festering. he has really ramped up attacks. it looked like he was going to either fire him or forced him to resign. if sessions was going to resign, he would have done it already. sessions appears to be staying in place, and trump appears he does not want to go far enough to fire him. part of the rally around sessions moved by the conservatives on the hill and even on talk radio this morning coming to his defense could be part of sending a signal that it would be going too far.

right now, you have an attorney general who does not appear to have the confidence or support of the president, but the president is unwilling to do anything about it. emily: in the meantime, a new report in "the wall street journal," quoting an interview with president, saying the apple ceo tim cook has promised him three new manufacturing plants in the u.s. what is your take on this? reporter: we have heard a number of these jobs announcements. trump said there has been something promised that would be done. some of them come through, some of them don't, some of them aren't necessarily what they seem to be on the surface.it doesn't look like apple has commented on this at all yet, so i will look what -- for what they have to say. but this is good turf to get back to for the president. this is where he is strongest. jobs, the economy, manufacturing. that's the message they want to hear. he will kind of get back on the message for a day or a few hours.he is in ohio later tonight . they always get derailed on

to something else, onto russia, onto attacking the media, onto attacking the attorney general, and they lose focus on jobs and the economy, which is one of the areas that got him elected.if he can stand this message, it's good for him , but he will probably be attacking jeff sessions in ohio more than talking about manufacturing. that's a concern among people who support him. emily: apple hasn't commented in this fit -- story to the wall street journal. our ownbring you comments from apple if we get that. shannon pettypiece, thank you. the company reported second-quarter earnings that beat analyst estimates. it posted a surprise wireless subscriber again, rebounding from a loss earlier this year.it showed it could fend for itself in a cutthroat price for. also in the report, at&t expects a time warner deal closing by the end of the year. coming up, venture capital funds keep getting bigger. we chat with the general partner
