4:00 am
>> we have no damn idea where we're going from here. >> the president has gone from saying there was no collusion to so what? >> for all of the talks that we're doing at this, there's no there there. >> the players in the room have no credibility because they have lied publicly indig assistantly, emphatically and constantly. >> anyone but jared kushner, the son-in-law of the president, if it were anyone else he would be fired. >> this is senator senator with chris cuomo and alisyn camerota. >> welcome to your "new day." breaking news a major blow to the trump agenda. the republican effort to repeal and replace obamacare collapsing after two more senators announce their opposition. this happened as president trump was hosting a din we are some senators, trying to gain more support. >> the problem is, nothing drives prices more than uncertainty, and you've just had a huge dose of that injected into the health care system. so what's going to happen now? well, the senate majority leader mitch mcconnell is pushing for a
4:01 am
vote on a repeal without a replacement plan. what's that about? showing tax savings to move forward. what's the cost? millions of americans would lose their subsidies. we have it all covered for you. this is an urgent situation. let's begin with cnn's suzanne malveaux live on capitol hill. suzanne? >> reporter: good morning, chris. president trump as he approaches his "360" month mark of his presidency with his record low approval ratings now a devastating blow, another blow to his top priority in his legislative agenda, also to the promise that republicans made to repeal and replace obamacare. senator mcconnell giving up on republican's's seven-year effort. the latest effort collapsing after two more republican senators announced their opposition to the bill
4:02 am
simultaneously monday night, ensuring that the plan would fail. mcconnell still planning to hold a vote in the coming days on a 2015 measure that would repeal obamacare but delay it taking effect for two years while a replacement bill is crafted. president trump responding to the setback on twitter tweeting "republicans should just repeal failing obamacare now and work on a new health care plan that will start from a clean slate. dems will join in." this despite the fact that a straight repeal has little to no chance of passing, and it could leave millions uninsured and the insurance markets in turmoil. the president's proposal starkly different from the promise he made on the campaign trail. >> obamacare is a disaster. repeal it and replace it. repeal and replace. repeal and replace. obamacare we're going to repeal it, we're going to replace it. we're going to get something done. >> reporter: president trump was trying to drum up support for health care hosting a handful of
4:03 am
senators at a white house dinner monday night. as senators lee and moran announced their opposition. the president expressing optimism earlier in the day. >> the republican senators are great people, but they have a lot of different states, some states need this, some states need that, but we're getting it together and it's going to happen. right, mike? >> yes, sir. >> i think. >> reporter: democratic minority leader chuck schumer immediately celebrating the defeat tweeting "this second failure of trumpcare is proof positive that the core of this bill is unworkable." as republicans continue to be split about the path forward with conservatives pushing the clean repeal effort and moderates like senator john mccain calling for bipartisanship stressing that republicans should receive input from members of both parties, as they work to produce future legislation. and if mcconnell's last ditch effort to repeal and not replace obamacare fails t will be a real
4:04 am
test for lawmakers whether or not they're willing to shore up obamacare or just let it wither. republicans have said time and time again they believe obamacare is collapsing so it remains to be scene whether or not they'll work with the democrats to fix it. >> let's bring in our opinion, political analyst david gregory, reporter and editor at large chris cillizza and "the washington post" congressional reporter karoun dermijian. last week susan collins of maine and rand paul said they could not support this. mitch mcconnell still believed and the white house still believed at least what they said publicly that they could have the votes and they were going to get this across the finish line. then last night president trump invited seven senators over to the white house for dinner, these were all as we understood it yes votes, but influencers
4:05 am
who could go out and spread the message. i'm forgetting one part of this chapter, john mccain got surgery, emergency surgery, and so he was needed and mitch mcconnell said he was going to delay the vote. they had this dinner and during the dinner the two senators, mike lee of utah and jerry moran of kansas held hands figuratively and announced together at the same time via twitter that they were not going to support this bill, neither one becoming the 51st vote but together, announcing this and it all unraveled. how do you see it? >> well, look, the clash all along in this has been the view of conservatives who don't believe government should be involved in the health care system in the way that obamacare originally committed the government to being involved, and those americans including trump supporters who have come to rely on more federal subsidies, a bigger footprint on the part of the federal government in the health care
4:06 am
system, you know, helping people to deal with preexisting conditions, and other difficulties in the health care system. those two simply clashed. there's a lot of governors out there, including conservatives who like the idea the federal government was offering more subsidies with regard to expanding medicaid to help people who are lower income in their state. very hard to take all of that back. you also have a president who is disengaged, who didn't appreciate the complexities of health care, who is at 36% approval, so a lot of republicans thinking look, we have a real split on the ideology on this, and we have real concerns whether taking such a tough vote is ever going to be backed up. none of this is a recipe for success, and now the real work of what do you do next, now that you've been kind of talking down the insurance markets, talking about the death spiral, what do republicans and democrats do together to try to make some fixes at least. >> you boosted the uncertainty in order to drive change, now you have to live with that uncertainty and it's going to
4:07 am
destabilize the markets in terms of the pricing model. chris cillizza a little bit of irony at play here. grow david's point, nobody wanted to be number 50 or 51, which shows the toxic political environment even within the gop, but the two senators who wound up putting the last nail in this coffin weren't people who want to protect the medicaid population. they were people who wanted a big gaudy tax savings number and that became revealed as a potential bait and switch, that those cuts that they were relying on as fiscal champions may not have been certain, and that wound up turning their backs. true? >> that's right. look, you had two people, mike lee and jerry moran who sit in states that are two of the most conservative states in the country and two people who just got reelected in 2016. no primary to worry about. this was not by accident. statement released by twitter at
4:08 am
8:30, neither of them wanting to be number 51, or 50 on the bill, so that was 100% on purpose. the problem always for mcconnell and would be the problem if they tried to do anything else. you have serious disagreement between what conservatives want and what susan collins, lisa murkowski, rob portman, path toomeys of pennsylvania of the world want, those two things can't really work together. you either get more cuts or full repeal in the case of rand paul, or you get medicaid expansion not phased out in the way in which he was. you get more protection for rural poor older residents. those two things don't work together. that was always mcconnell's problem. he had so little wiggle room and such big differences between the two sides. that's why i don't think there's 50 votes for anything, including straight repeal among the
4:09 am
republican party at the moment. i remain to be convinced there's been zero evidence since this bill went from the house to the senate that there's a majority of republicans who are going to be for anything as it relates to repeal or reform or replacement of the health care law. >> john mccain is recovering from surgery to remove a blood clot but still think being this and he put out a statement and here is his vision for how this should go. "one of the major problems of obamacare it was written on a party line basis and driven through congress without a single republican vote as the law continues to crumble in arizona and states across the country we must not repeat the original mistakes that led to failure that congress must return to regular order, hold hearings, receive input from members of both parties and heed the recommendations of our nation's governors so that we can produce a bill that finally provides americans with access to quality and affordable health care." you are on capitol hill all the time. you talk to members.
4:10 am
is his vision possible? >> his vision is very nice, and it may yield some smaller fix -- well it may yield some smaller fixes, because in the discussion about the comprehensive health care field, you may find areas where there's agreement between republicans and democrats but in terms of them being able to sit down and somehow after seven years of this political mud slinging or more, be able to sing kumbaya and come to consens consensus, if it happens within a two-year bill, that is a stretch. you haven't seen enough agreement won the gop across the board, and you add the democrats to that, they make the more moderate republicans look extremely conservative. you're asking to resolve differences between even more people if you're going to try to do that and congress isn't very good at that right now. it would be an ideal scenario to be able to do this but it's kind of pie in the sky and maybe it's the way that business could have been done back when john mccain was a young senator, but that's not the way it's working right
4:11 am
now. and so it's a very, very tall hurdle, although like i said before in the process of having those comprehensive discussions you may find smaller fixes to the obamacare situation you could do if you can find commonality, but it's probably the little things, not the whole. >> just one quick point i wanted to make, there is no way, karoun is right, no way mitch mcconnell after this tooth pulling process for him is going to say you know what we should do? we should spend the next 18 months relitigating health care with the possibility that we're going to wind up in the exact same place that we are today. >> right. >> the reason for the repeal vote, the reason he's pushing for the repeal vote is he can say it conservatives i did everything that i could. we had a straight vote on repeal. there isn't a majority for this. we are moving on. this is a clear the decks move. he does not want to spend one more second talking about health care, even acknowledging that yes, there are political
4:12 am
consequences to that fact. >> look, look at all the tension we are about to see. if they couldn't do this on health care could they get major tax reform? conservatives like paul ryan have been counting all of this lunacy out of this white house, they think this is the conservative moment to get major tax reform. what's happening to the conservative project in america? you know, you now have since 2000 the expansion of medicare with the prescription drug benefit, new entitlement in obamacare and now you have a republican administration which completely casts aside core conservative principles and is coddling russia, for goodness sake. what has happened to the conservative movement? that's a lot of the energy that's going to be taking over as we get into a midterm election year and it mirrors all of this tension going on on the left within the democratic party. this is not just an inside the beltway concern. this is affecting how governors think and how they start
4:13 am
planning their electoral stroot g strategy that gets in the way of pragmatic policy in washington. >> before we toss the towel in for the entire republican agenda for tax reform it's slightly different. there's been a lot of actual substantive ideas kicking around the last several years they haven't gotten a chance to gel together. i'm not saying it will be successful but health care was unique, it was a political fight for the last seven years they had to turn into a policy thing. >> the narrative wound up being blown up because what was sold as tax savings and cost cutting wound up being revealed as taking subsidies and money from the most vulnerable people. that might not be as blatant a narrative with tax reform, sometimes the idea of cuts is more appealing there. look at the poll numbers. >> 35%, this is a new bloomberg poll out today, 35% of americans say at the moment, of course this is a snapshot of today that health care is the most
4:14 am
important thing in the country. it's far ahead of the economy right now. it's ahead of terrorism, immigration, 10%, health care is at 35%. but 64% in this bloomberg poll disapprove of the way president trump has handled the health care debate. that's a big number, david gregory. >> yes, it is. and you know, this is presidential leadership that's being examined. the president is appealing now and spending a lot of time especially taking on the news media trying to discredit the news media, talking to a narrow band of his followers in trying to expand it beyond that, but the real promise even for many of his followers was to deliver. was to somehow change washington. we see this when presidents come in on this mandate of change, whether they can actually lead up to it. he didn't know. i know people who have talked to him, no level of depth on policy on health care, so if he's going to outsource this, he's doing it and trying to use the bully pulpit ineffectively because
4:15 am
he's so unpopular. he is not seen as the change agent on health care and yet it's a core promise that he was going to be the guy who could change the way washington worked to knock it out. >> right, but he had to adopt that promise, in fairness to the president, and we know he watches, he had been much more expansive in his personal reckoning of health care until he decided to become a republican. >> right. >> there is a little bit of a lesson in this current situation that the president and his party are going to have to pay attention to, moving into tax reform. it comes in the version of a poll. abc/"the washington post" poll, 63% say it is more important for the federal government to provide coverage for low income than cut taxes. now here is what i would suggest is a lesson in that cillizza. you tried to sell tax savings in health care as a virtue, taken got revealed as something that would hurt people and the vulnerable people.
4:16 am
>> right. now ir'going into tax policy but beware people understand what you mean when you say you're cutting. it's not just about the cut, it's about for whom and don't give it to the white collars. give it to the needy, the blue dollars and the working and the below working clo ining class. >> that's what donald trump ran on, that's how he won michigan, pennsylvania and wisconsin. so that's point one and to david's point about keeping campaign promises. two, let me just throw in one other thing. barack obama who we don't talk about as much as we should, given that the bill is colloquially known as obamacare, the law. i think republicans drastically underestimated what the affordable care act's popularity would do without barack obama in office. we knew following this bill for a long time, following the law for a long time, it was basically a stand-in for barack obama's popularity. so republicans looked at obamacare and said it's so unpopular. people would love to get rid of it. it was republicans didn't like.
4:17 am
. barack obama. once he left it was the affordable care act and people want what they currently have. they don't want you to take away. the devil this he know is better than the devil they don't know. >> important point, people resist change when you don't know what the change will look like, and if you're going to lose that and we've seen that play out at large. panel thank you very much for all of that perspective. here's what we know. the latest republican health care bill dead. how do they feel about straight repeal? that's what the man on your screen wants to do. let's vote and cut all the taxes that fund the subsidies in health care. is that an answer? we have a member who may say yes. member of the freedom caucus, next. you get used to food odors in your car. you think it...
4:18 am
4:19 am
...smells fine, but your passengers smell this bell dinging new febreze car with odorclear technology cleans away odors... ...for up to 30 days smells nice... breathe happy, with new febreze.
4:20 am
4:21 am
>> uncertainty is the last thing that our health care system needs right now. it will drive price increases more than anything else, and now that the gop bill has died,
4:22 am
that's exactly what we have, is more uncertainty. so what will happen next? well there is a call to repeal without replacing. there was a tweet just sent out, republicans should just repeal failing obamacare now and work on a new health care plan that will start from a clean slate. dems will join in." this comes from the president. joining us republican congressman gym jordan of ohio. the freedom caucus has a different idea which is look, let's just do a straight repeal bill right now, get an up and down vote on it and move from there. would you be in favor of that? >> yes, totally in favor. chris, that's what we told the american people we were going to do. the repeal legislation has a two-year wind-down so a phase-in gives us time to work on the replacement. this is what we told the american people what we were going to do and what we passed last congress. let's put the same thing on president trump's tessing we put on president obama's desk.
4:23 am
it will be a different outcome, president trump will sign it. then we can come together and work on a replacement to deal with the key issues to bring down premiums for middle class families. >> the criticism is casualties, what you call tax savings takes the form and practicality of subsidies, and money that the most needy, the most vulnerable among your voters needs to support their health care, and you'd be taking all that. >> the casualties are right now. crawford county, ohio, a county i get the privilege of representing has no insurers in the exchange plans right now. the casualties are what obama cair has done to premiums for middle class and working class families. casualties is what we currently have. that's what has to change and what the american people elected republicans to do in 2010, 2014, and of course last november. so let's just simply do what we said, repeal it, then replace it. the president is right, two separate bills.
4:24 am
dot first one, have a wind-down period and during that period work on the replacement. if you're accurate this uncertainty is there i think it's obamacare is driving up the costs and uncertainty right now, not the fact that we haven't done legislation. if you're right we'll have time to work on as replacement. let's repeal and replace. freedom caucus introduced that same piece of legislation during a house debate earlier this spring. i reintroduced that same piece of legislation that clean repeal. let's focus on that. >> didn't it fail in part because it wasn't a good idea, even though it was a simple promise, it didn't make the situation better? how does pulling all of the subsidies and money that people need to finance their health care, how is taking all of that and passing it on to tax cuts to whomever you want how does that make it better? >> it's a good idea because it's what we told the american people we were going to do and what they elected to us do. and it's the same thing we passed last congress.
4:25 am
if it was good enough last congress, what drives american voters crazy. why isn't it good enough this congress when it really counts? let's pass that. >> congressman answer your own question. why do you think all these senators in your party and house members in your party didn't like the reality of who that money was going to be taken away from? >> i think saying you don't want to vote on it is different than when it's put in front of you.. that's why they play the game friday night. if you went with the conventional wisdom the underdog will never win. when the roll call is called when it's time to put up the vote and see what members do in light what have they did last congress and what they told the american people for six years they were going to do. let's bring it up for a vote. conventional wisdom would have been the super bowl would have been over after three quarters last year but the patriots and tom brady didn't think that. let's call up the vote and see what happens. i think there's a good chance it passes which is exactly what we told the american people we were
4:26 am
going to do. >> so what happens if you were to vote on a straight repeal and all that money is taken out of the system, then in the interim, between when you have that vote and how you figure out how to replace it, what happens to all those people who need the subsidies and who need medicaid to get health care? >> i'll say it for the first time, chris. the bill we passed last congress the same bill we introduced this congress has a two-year time period on it. nothing changes in the two-year time period. you repealed it and say effective date is in the future, but in that time period then you now have the catalyst to actually get to the replacement, and i think frankly you might have the better ability to bring democrats and republicans together like senator mccain and others have talked about to actually say okay, here's some things we can do on medicaid, with the opioid problem but at the same time we want some of the key policy changes that we believe will bring down premiums like easier formation of association of health plans like interstate shopping for insurance, like greater access and ability to use your health
4:27 am
savings accounts. >> why don't you pitch those instead of a straight repeal? why don't you pitch the ideas for how to tighten up certain of the exchanges mostly in states where they didn't expand medicaid and you don't have enough new england people coming into the market which is a fundamental problem with insurance. why don't do you it that way instead of going straight repeal when eight so controversial? >> two things. we should talk about all that and try to bring that together, but the main thing i keep coming back to, what do we tell the american people we were going to do? we told them we were going to repeal it. crawford county, ohio, in the fourth district of ohio which i represent no exchange plans. we know how bad it is. >> why are no exchange plans in crawford, ohio? >> because of obamacare. it's so expensive they're not, no plan for them to even to go to if they're in the obamacare exchange right now because of how bad this law is. that's why it has to change. >> don't the insurers that pulled out of there and the ones who refused to go in say there aren't enough young healthy
4:28 am
people in that county system for them to support the pricing model? >> well you're right. that's one of the flaws of obamacare a lot of young healthy people say i'm not paying exorbitant premiums not paying $400 a month for a $6,000 deduct inl plan. let's get rid of the law and work on things that would lower the premiums allowing consumers to pick the plan that fits their needs and their family's needs. that's what we're focused on doing. let's do that approach again after all that's what we told the american people we were going to do, that's what they elected us to do. >> i get it but the impact of a promise also. we'll have to see if this is the way forward for your party. we'll come back to you and figure out what it means. >> never hurts to do what you said, chris. >> that's true, certainly in politics, delivering on a promise can have currency. it's always good to have you chew on the details with us here on "new day" congressman, thank you. >> thank you, chris. well, chris, president trump claims he has signed more bills than any other president has in

4:35 am
analyst and former senior economic adviser to the trump campaign stephen moore and rana farouhar. the senate gop health care plan, what happens today in terms of the market? >> already the dollar is down, you see international markets really concerned just about the chaos, the uncertainty, the fok we had one complicated plan, a proposal for another complicated plan. we still don't have a health care system that works for most americans. i this i that worries international americans. i expect the markets will be volatile. >> why does it create uncertainty? why can't insurers and everybody now that it's fallen apart just stay the course, go back to the status quo. why does there have to be so much uncertainty today? >> well, because obamacare is falling apart. i think this has been the part of the story that hasn't been told well, but if you look at what's happened and one in every

three counties in america, alisyn, either zero or one insurance company left so people don't have choices. we're seeing a death spiral. people say under the republican plan there will be a death spiral in the insurance market. ladies and gentlemen we're in the middle of a death spiral in the insurance market right now. chris as saying more and more young people are dropping out of the market, not just young people, old people. auto i'll 57 years old, i can't afford the insurance under obamacare. you need to do something fairly urgently. the idea of going back to the full repeal, it may be a little too late for that, alisyn. that might have been a good idea -- >> why would it be too late for that? >> well, i'm not saying it is. i'm just saying they could have done that at the start on the first day that the congress was sworn in. i would have fully supported that and come one some kind of -- by the way just to explain to your viewers what this would mean, it would mean that by some date certain, say january 1,
4:37 am
2020, obamacare is fully repealed and then it gives us six months, nine months, a year for us to come together, republicans and democrats to come up with something that makes more sense. >> you like that idea. >> that's he the premise behind that. >> if they could do that. >> rana your thoughts in. >> i think what we need and most countries have is a single payer system and that seems politically unfeasible. you see more and more democrats say this should be our baseline. it's cheaper. the outcomes are better. it's what the rest of the world is using and where we need to be. >> next topic because this was in the news a lot yesterday, the white house has called this made in america week. they want to encourage businesses to stay here and to make their products here. the one fly in the ointment, rana, stla much of the trump products, many of the trump products are not made in america. here is a list of those that are

4:40 am
doesn't do there was already a trend towards manufacturing jobs, becoming more local and some of them coming back home because people want products to be created faster, they support local ecosystems that way. it's a good thing and something we should be pushing. >> for sure and good to highlight it. i'm glad we've all had that conversation today. stephen, rana, thank you very much. chris? so president trump is dealing with matters at home and abroad. most recently putting venezuela on notice. how he plans to get that country's troubled leadership's attention, next. whoa! you're not taking these. hey, hey, hey! you're not taking those. whoa, whoa! you're not taking that. come with me. you're not taking that. you're not taking that. you're not taking that. mom, i'm taking the subaru. don't be late. even when we're not there to keep them safe, our subaru outback will be.

nausea; and joint pain. bexsero may not protect all individuals. tell your healthcare professional if you're pregnant or if you have received any other meningitis b vaccines. ask your healthcare professional about the risks and benefits of bexsero and if vaccination with bexsero is right for your teen. moms, we can't wait. when you switch to progressive. as easy as saving $600 winds stirring. too treacherous for a selfie.

4:53 am
disturbed. why were the body cameras not on. >> the current environment for police is difficult, but the officer accepts this as part of his calling, he would like to say more and he will in the future. she moved to minneapolis to live with her fiance. their wedding was in a month. >> neighbors gathering to pay trip to her family. >> i'm trying to come to terms with this tragedy and understand why this has happened.

4:55 am
her quite sudden departure. we actually lost touch a few years ago when she moved to the u.s. and i moved to another part of australia, but when we were in sydney we were very, very close indeed and we worked closely together for quite some time. it is a shock. i think everyone is in shock. we're just in shock, that is probably the best way to describe where everyone is. >> the circumstances surrounding your friends death are so random. we have heard of police shootings. we know they have to be investigated, but to hear she lost her live this way after making a 911 call on a saturday night i'm sure just adds to the confusion of how this young life was not supposed to end.
4:56 am
>> absolutely, and i found out by being contacted by a journalist from the sydney morning tribute. she asked if i want today pay tribute to her, and i didn't understand what was happening and i had to google to find out what had happened. it was really, really, really confusing and i called my friends in sydney straight away, and he had just been consoling friends there. especially because of the kind of person that justine was, and the world is learning about what an incredible human being and such a beautiful woman she was. it makes it even harder because
4:57 am
she was such a beautiful light on this planet and she was spreading so much love. >> we know very little, and that is the theme of the situation right now. we don't know how her life ended. we know she had a huge moment coming up with her fiance. her last name is damon. it has been taken posthumously because of how close it was to happening. while you have been speaking we were showing video of her speaking. a message of personal empowerment. she was trained in veterinary science, but her life took a turn in recent years more towards spirituality and personal empowerment. she was speaking and said to be gifted. what do you know about this transition and how she found her
4:58 am
true calling? >> this is when i met justine in sydney. it was a very powerful time for me in my life and her. it was almost as if when we met that she made a decision to fully commit to her purpose. and that was to bridge science and spirituality. as you said she was a trained veterinary nurse, or even surgeon i think, and i didn't know her then, but i knew that she had a incredible love of animals and she was very clever and very intelligent with regards to science, which i feel that almost paved the way to bridge, you know, her spirituality.
4:59 am
>> that is a fascinating nurn her life, and i'm sure there is no way to explain in a satisfactory way someone having their life cut so short. she did find her purpose on this earth, and she was passionate about it, and that is not something that everyone gets. thank you for sharing more with us on who she was. >> blessings to you all. republicans after the collapse of the senate bill. >> they have lost a loft political capital. we have to repeal obama care and we will end up replacing it. >> it is here to say.
