welcome to inside politics. i'm john king. thanks for sharing your day with us. breaking news on several fronts this hour, donald trump asking

for swift votes on harvey relief muffin and muffin -- money and an increase in the country's debt ceiling. >> we have many things we need to solve, we will know if we will be able to after this meeting or the meetings we will be having over a short period of time. >> plus the president is confusing people even in his own party. the backlash from democrats is intense. >> i want to cut to the chase. president's decision, the president's decision to end daca was heartless and it was brainless. and irma ta rememb and irma takes aim, the storms winds hitting 185 miles an hour. florida's governor is sourvndin the alarm, even though the storm is days away. >> this storm is bigger, faster

and stronger than hurricane andrew. we're preparing for this storm. remember, we can rebuilt your home, but we cannot rebuild your life. >> hurricane irma slamming into parts of cuba and could be on a collision course with the main land. take a look at the island of st. martin. we're talking about one of the strongest landfalling hurricanes ever recorded. this is what st. martin looks like now. president trump talking about the threat the storm poses to the united states just a short time ago. >> there's a new and seems to be record breaking hurricane heading right toward florida and puerto rico and other places, we'll see what happens, we'll know in a very short period of time, but it looks like it could be something that will be not good, believe me, not good. >> the president says his team is ready, we have a team of reporters covering irma.

layla sand ytiago is covering hurricane irma, what are you seeing? >> reporter: we're actually seeing heavy rains and wind right now things are calm, but we're seeing some of the bands that are coming in with hurricane irma. a lot of people on this island feeling the uncertainty and the fear that comes with the unknown, not knowing exactly what type of destruction will follow. the governor of puerto rico saying that a weather system, a weather event of this magnitude has never been felt on this island in its reported history and, you know, as we were out and about, we spoke to one woman, her name is m ooida, and was actually just closing up shop, she was closing up a small business that she owns that is expected to be very much impacted. and as we closed that door, she looked right over at us and said

this is in god's hands, because no one knows what is coming next. they have 460 shelters that have been established, many of them open and operating. many people seeking shelter. this morning, the governor said they already had more than 400 people in those shelters, that is a low number given there are 3.5 million people on this island, but they are trying to take precautions, the governor said they are hoping for the best, and preparing for the worst. john? >> layla santiago in puerto rico. let's head to the cnn weather center, meteorologist chad myers has the latest. chad, we have seen a lot of storms evover the years and i he never heard of one over 185 miles an hour. the only one i can remember is h yrhy hyann, and we had anderson

cooper over there covering that event. we haven't heard from that island now in six hours. it is truly over the british virgin islands, there is an island right now, virgin gorda. i don't understand this, but sir richard branson is on that island right there in a wine cellar, i think when we gets out of there he will tell us what an unwise decision that was to ride this 185-mile-per-hour wind out, everything will be demolished on those islands there in the bbi. and probably not faring much better will be the u.s. virgin islands. this will be a devastating impact. we know about parts of bermuda, as the storm went over, it ripped all the vegetation out of the ground. where does it go next? it goes to the turks and kcaico.

then maybe taking a turn to florida. looking at these models, they all turn this storm very much to the right. but when does that happen? does that happen over monroe county, right over miami-dade? that would be the most devastating hurricane in u.s. history. does it go over the bahamas? or does it wait and go all the way over to key west and get west of here. this is less likely, this is somewhere in the middle, and this right here is as most of the computer models are talking, a slight right turn just to the east of miami beach, but miami beach still could have winds of 150, can you imagine what that would do to the high-rises and everything on miami beach. that's still 4 1/2 days away. >> keep in touch with chad myers

and keep in touch and listen to your local officials. turning now to domestic politics, the house speaker paul ryan today putting the best face on something we know most people don't like. this may be wildly optimistic in past immigration battles. but the speaker says he hopes congress can pass legislation that gives new protections to those young undocumented immigrants and also beefs up border security. >> i think there's a serious humane issue that needs to be dealt with. but it's only fitting that we deal with the root causes of this problem. >> in making the announcement yesterday, it was the attorney general jeff sessions, he spoke harshly of the obama era protections. >> and also denied jobs to hundreds of thousands of americans by allowing those same illegal aliens to take those jobs, failure to enforce the

laws in the past has put our nation at risk of crime, violence and terrorism. >> but just hours after that, the president of the united states had a very different tone, saying on twilt tter, quo congress now has six months to legalize daca, something the obama administration was unable to do. if they cannot, i will revisit. we have all lived through watching congress do this over the past 15 years, and they start, they fail. how much did the president complicate the cause? number one, having jeff sessions coming in and saying, crime, illegal immigration, taking your jobs, but then the president says i'll fix this, if congress doesn't do it, i'll do it. >> it's a terrible negotiating tactic, this idea that it seemed

like it was a final offer and the congress had to do this, and saying it's not quite a final offer, there's no real do or die now, that the president will come back and do it later. and what does he mean? what will he do later and does that mean he's not going to do anything now? if you listen to paul ryan and marco rubio, they don't know what the president wants on this? if they put daca on his desk, they don't noknow if he'll sign it. >> if we wait for that and we watch the washington confusion to play out, there's 800,000 people who were told by the attorney general of the united states yesterday, you're gone. >> prepare for departure. >> and they have to decide, do i try to reapply, what about my family, what about the roots? many of them have no stake, no relationship at all with the country they would be sent home

to. one of the things the democrats say is every time they get home they're going to attach a clean dreamer's bill to any bill they through the house. >> if a clean dream act does not come to the floor in september, we're prepared to attach it to other items this fall until it passes. >> i'll continue this conversation, i just want to show you live pictures of florida, the house of representativ representatives, they have just started on the harvey relief package. the harvey aid package, installment number one, just passes the house and the senate. we expect it to pass overwhelmingly, but let's continue the daca conversation for a minute. the democrats understand, they believe it's a good political issue for them. they also understand how much it fractures the republican party.

they cannot succeed, can they, in saying they want to just protect the dreamers? >> i don't think they can succeed in having everything they possibly want, number one because that's not how deals are made, and number two they care about the dreamers, i don't think they want to hold dreamers hostage to prove a political point. republicans also don't want to be seen as heartless and cruel, so they're starting from their corner, and they're saying, hey, if you don't want to play ball, come and play with us a little bit. i think the democrats will say no to border security, it's not like they haven't done it before. there's not a lot of congress that has not voted for boarder security. arguably, a militarization of the border. i think we'll get a little bit of donald trump wants, a little bit of what the democrats want.

it's in nobody's best interests to leave the dreamers out. >> he said i as president i will reverse president obama's kbhekikbhek i executive action, and then jeff sessions comes out and says, make your plans, you're out of here. and then the president says, if they don't do something about it, i want them to stay, donald trump's tuesday night daca is a rare negotiating blunder, it was an error from which trump must extricate himself soon. all politics local. >> a reminder that steve bannon is the boss of that website. >> he probably wrote that arm. >> he had a gun to congress's

head with this six-month deadline. then he backed off with this vague revisit. does anyone think that he's going to go back to the obama era executive action and reinstate daca unilaterally in the white house if congress doesn't pass it? >> be isn't that the test that the president should explain what he means? >> he wants to have it both ways, he wants to make everybody happy with this and that's not the way leadership works, to your point, you have to make a decision. and i also think there is no way to revisit daca after the attorney general declared it unconstitutional. you can't go back and say, well, never mind. i think some people worry that donald trump doesn't have the full scope of all of this. but he wants to get ahead of all of this coverage here. >> you can't please half the

people on this issue, let alone trying to please everybody. it just doesn't work that way. >> and when it comes to the trump base, anything that can be construed as amnesty, we will be seeing screaming headlines from breitbart.com, going after trump, if they see any sort of daca fix provides amnesty. and when it comes to any sort of negotiating tactics here, what trump has basically done is put this into 2016. the wall street journal has a poll this morning that that looks at how americans views have changed our immigration, immigration is a -- you know, is a hot potato issue. but ten years ago, 48% of the country said that immigration hurt america. now that 64% say immigration helps america. and the shift there is among democrats. so whether or not schumer and pelosi, their goal is to score

points with democrats, they will do anything they can to score a political wedge. >> will they give up border wall funding? >> there's really not an ideological case against border security. most democrats are for border security. so there will be a huge victory terror the democrats to have a legislative d.ive daca fix. >> what will they insist on as part of this? >> you all raised the issue that has sent every other immigration bill off the rails, even if it started looking strong, then it goes off the rail. the house is voting right now on emergency money for southeast texas and louisiana, still trying to begin the recovery, of course, from hurricane harvey. your insurance company

florida governor rick scott giving an update on preparations for hurricane irma. >> we are preparing for irma to directly impact your state. and while it's still too early to determine exactly where this hurricane will hit. it's important for all floridians to keep an eye on this storm. do not wait for this storm to come. it's deadly and will cause a deadly situation. i have just activated 900 members of the florida national guard. there will be 1,000 guard members to assist in hurricane irma preparations, the national guard is extremely necessary in emergency response across the state and i will continue to activate more members as needed.

these members will be in place to help with preparation and shelter. national guard members will also be assisting utility companies as they respond to return power to homes and biusinesses. in addition 13 hoekt helicopters and more than 1,000 high water vehicles are on stand by. the florida national guard has coordinated with other states and the national guard bureau to assure 30,000 troops and 100 trucks are ready to sup importantport or state. the fish and wildlife commission has 200 officers standing by. 30 teams with supporting resources such as trucks, cultural and river patrol boats and atv and two shallow drop

boats are prepared for rescue missions or any additional florida needs. the department of highway and safety and other partnering act cities are identifying resources for a response. the florida highway patrol is monitoring road conditions to ensure the roadways are clear. there's a minimum of two response teams ready to deploy to affected areas. and utility providers are already working on staging and allocation so they can return power as quickly as possible. they are positioning resources throughout the state and in neighboring states. we know from previous storms how incredibly important it is for power to be restored as quickly as possible. we have urged county and city --

lake okeechobee, water levels in lake okeechobee are being lowered as well as the surrounding canals, routine inspections of the herpert hoover dike. the lake level is currently 6.8 feet. based on current rainfall forecasts, at this time, we have no major concerns with the dike, but we will remain in contact with the corps of engineers to monitor the dike. shelters, if you are evacuate it from the keys, we'll work hand in hand with the counties for shelter. there's absolutely no reason for anyone not to evacuate if you're ordered to do so? shelters will be available and you should follow the directions of local officials to follow the directions that your community needs. families go to www.flori

www.floridashelters.org. including noncomcast customers, for a map of those hot spots, www.xfinitywifi.com. for deployment as needed. we will be positioning these goods once we have a better understanding of the path of this storm. last night i spoke to u.s. health and human services secretary tom price who told me that hhs had disaster medical assistance teams even rule -- even rule to florida. we have also heart repod report

grocery stores being out of water. we have been in touch with retailers where more supplies are clearly on the way. if you visited a store yesterday and found a shortage, you should go back today once everything has been replenished. what we need now is volunteers. i urge all floridians who can do so to volunteer in advance of this storm. the american red cross teams are arriving in orlando for staging with 26 tractor trailers, 150 trailers at the state's farmer's market and 100 emergency response vehicles staged to north florida. the salvation army is on stand by with 32 cooking units in florida and additional resources staged. the florida baptist convention has 35 kitchens on stand by ready to feed 35,000 meals a

day. floridians can go to www.voluntaryflorida.org. volunteers makes a huge difference in these emergencies and help with shelter, food distribution and response efforts. your efforts could make the difference a family needs to get through this storm. so please volunteer. regarding school closures, to find out if your local school district is closing, www.fdle.org or call your superintendent. state offices of monroe county are closed today until further notice, state offices will follow all the directions of county officials and will be announced as they are determined. i have directed all state and county offices to be closed on friday. have a disaster preparedness kit and be ready today. do not sit and wait, be prepared now. individual sit -- if you need to

fill your prescriptions, do it today, you can do it early at your local pharmacy so you're prepared. we're working closely with our state, federal and local partners to make sure that floridians and visitors have timely information on this storm. but i cannot stress this enough, get prepared, know your evacuation zone, listen to your locals, this storm has the potential to devastate our great state and you have to take this seriously. remember, we can rebuild your home, we cannot rebuild your life. this is life threatening storm and protecting life is a top priority. remember, andrew, i had hospitals backs hospital s back in andrew, we evacuated people and move offed them south and the storm moved south. this can be a devastating storm,

more storm surge than andrew, more wind than andrew, so everybody take this seriously. >> thank you, governor, and now we have our two great senators from the state of florida bill nelson and marco rubio. >> you're listening to the florida governor. the governor again emthat sizing even though irma is four full days away from potential landfall in florida, 185-mile-per-hour winds has convinced the governor he needs to be out there telling the residents of his state do not underestimate this storm. saying many stores in florida, southern florida are out of water. politicians trying to get out ahead of this one. as florida prepares for irma, let me show you some live pictures from the house floor, members of congress reacting in

the wake of hurricane harvey. this is just the first round of funding, we expect it to pass momentarily. and the house will most likely take the bill and add a bill for the debt ceiling. when he was asked today, president trump wouldn't commit? >> a democratic leader saying they're willing to cooperate to a certain extent, which predictable angered the house speaker paul ryan. >> we have all this deaf station

in texas, they want to play politics with the debt ceiling at this moment when we have fellow americans in need so we do not strand them. >> call it what you will, the internal republican politics, the point the speaker was making, and forgive me, america, this is a washington process conversation, but it's one of the complications, you would think $8 billion in whharvey ai. be congress does have to raise the debt ceiling, if we attach harvey aid to the votes bill. what the democrats are saying, we'll give you a debt ceiling increase through the end of 2017. the republicans want to have it extended all through 2018. again, america, this is your government not quite at work. not the way it's supposed to be. let me ask you this, will the

process that the government has to go through and the file this september, i do that have to risk harvey aid or will they figure this out? >> i think they'll figure this out. i don't think anybody will get to the point where harvey aid is at risk. but democrats are going to make them squirm as much as possible. they want to force this conversation in the republican caucus, because they know there are a lot of republicans still to this day, who don't want to raise the debt limit, who want corresponding cuts, who want to deal with the long-term fiscal problems, i think they're unlikely to get what they want, this three-month extension. but what the three-month extension will do is renew the republicans over a lot of other issues, obviously republicans don't want that for a number of reasons, but it's politics. >> and it shows you how dysfunction al this town is.

one of the things i'm told is even bigger, on the senate side, they're thinking about attaching the debt ceiling and again the continuing resolution to continue to fund the government. on the senate side they're exploring, they're deciding whether to do a new grand bargain, or a grand package but that i'm only do it if speaker ryan says do that and i can get it through the house, why don't they just pass the debt ceiling, debate how the government should do it and how they're going to repay it. why is what they get elected to do so hard? >> you can't count on this congress to do anything, you haven't been able to count on them to do anything for a long time now. i think you should be talking to the white house about this, because from the sounds of this on my reporting, not only is the white house interested in marrying these two, their rationale, the debt ceiling and

harvey aid is the exact opposite? it sounds like some in the white house are open to the senate democratic plan to push out the debt ceiling even further, to get this thing off their plates, at least through the end of the year, past the end of the year. >> democrats, if you are in the minority and the house of representatives, it's basically being useless in washington, and you get one moment with the current setup to have leverage. and that is must-pass legislation comes to the house, and libertarian oriented conservatives don't want to vote for it and the house has to go to the -- the conservative version passes in the house, the senate loads it up with things that democrats don't like. that's their one point of le raj. and that's why you saw paul ryan

saying, tisk, tisk, don't do this to me. because they're going to maximize their leverage here. >> he says it's a terrible idea. even ted cruz, the best way to have a >> yeah, it's try, why kngcan't they do their jobs? because there's vast ideological differences in the way they do their jobs, if you're rand paul or paul ryan, they don't like the idea of raising the doebt ceiling. >> it sends up being a mess. >> we'll keep track on the final vote in the house and this debate will be around for at least a few more days.

at the white house just moments ago, the president spikesi in speaking about a phone call he had with the chinese president. >> how w >> reporter: how was your meeting mr. president? >> i had a good call with the president kpshs i, he will not be putting up with what's happening in north korea.

he said he would be with us 100%. we had a very, very frank and very strong will. -- we will see what happens, thank you very much. >> are you considering military action? north korea? he's trying to describe a phone call he had with chinese president xi jinping. he say the chinese president wants to help, we'll see what he can do, we'll see if he can do it. and the president's administration trying to bring about some deescalation in the actions of north korea. the live picture you see to the right of your screen there, the camera just getting water off

the lens, the president is bound for north dakota where he's going to give a speech on tax reform. hitching a ride with him, north dakota's democratic senator, heidi highcamp. she said in a statement, i've been pushing for both sides of the aisle to work together in congress toward permanent, comprehensive tax reform. >> five republicans up for re-election next year. so what do we have at play here, as we watch the president get off of marine one. if you go to the north dakota republican party website. every few days they put up a heidi's hiding. they say thinkshe's hiding beca she's not interested in working with the president. they want to beat her next year,

and the president of the united states, a republican, gives her a campaign ad. flies to north dakota where she can say i'm the middle person trying to bridge the japan. >> a >> -- gap. >> she barely won, i think she won something like 3,000 votes. >> only democrat to win state wide in north dakota. >> she has played this very smartly, she's voted for all of his cabinet, nominees, except betty devos, this is brilliant for her, i think on donald trump's part, she's going to need a lot of those trump voters and essentially ticket splitters to win. >> is it a kblublunder? the president is a very good communicator, will he say i gave her a ride out here, i hope she's a democratic that we can

work with on immigration and tax reform. >> in the short-term, what he would rather have in the short-term a vote on his legislate ive agenda, if he can turn her into a yes vote on tax reform and they can turn to the debt ceiling next year down the road, that would be pretty important for the president. >> isn't it remarkable how united the democrats have been on all of this. the political dynamics around this president have actually it very easy for them to kind of hold the line. that's why paul ryan is sort of shaming them over making demands, because he can't count on people falling off the side. i think the same is true in the senate. heidi highcamp is along for the ride, but i don't think she or any other democrats are afraid of the president. nobody is scared anybody, i

don't think she is. i think she's going to vote based on how the politics look for her. >> mike pence has arrived at senator john mccain's -- he's back in washington for the big vote this month. he wrote an op-ed saying that we need to stand up to president trump. now the vice president up there with an olive branch, i guess? >> this is sort of the trump political brand here, it's just perplexing, you're talking about trying to strike the right balance in north dakota, by going after high camp and getting her vote, it harkens back to that phoenix speech where he was really hard on mccain and flake, but also spoke kindly of kim jong-un in north korea, white house officials tell my colleague rich ruben in the journal today that trump is going to use the same kind of language he did in missouri,

saying if your democratic senator doesn't vote for this bill, you should vote her out. so if president trump can't strike the right balance, i don't think that's a calculation for this president. >> she's going to have to hitchhike back to washington. they have tried to unsuccessfully get her out of the senate by offering her jobs in the administration. so they have tried to get her out of there so they could replace her with a republican. one way or another, they want that seat, they want that vote. >> the presideit will be fun toe watch this trip play out, it will be fun to watch senator highcamp describe being a fly on the wall. a new book written by the democratic nominee spraexplains and she has lots of reasons.

. get rideady for hillary clinton in her own words. clinton deals with why she lost, who she blames. there's nothing i was looking forward to more than showing putin that his efforts to influence our election and install a friendly puppet has failed. i know he must be enjoying everything that's happened instead, but he hasn't had the last lafayette. -- last laugh yet. >> she places the blame more than she ever has before and she accepts more blame than she ever has before. for someone in the public like

she is, that's -- she says she missed the mood and the moment and misjudged the the anger in the electorate. of course she takes some shots at bernie sanders, she offers a window into something that only she could see, this is one example here of that phone call with donald trump, it says this, it was without a doubt one of the strangest moments of my life. i congratulated trump and offered to do anything i could to make sure the transition was smooth. it was all perfectly nice and weirdly ordinary, like calling a neighbor to say you can't make it to his barbecue, it was mercifully brief, i was numb and shocked. it was in those early morning hours that she realized she would not be the president. this book is about 440 pacges,

lot of it is reflective. she talks about her marriage 689d s. she also said she will not run for president again. george w. bush offered a phone call cto her as she was making her concession speech the next day, she wahe waited on the linl th she finished talking to a republican calling her during her concession speeches. >> jeff's just noted how uncomfortable hillary clinton describes the phone call with now president trump, then president-elect trump in the book. let's go back to election night and parts of that moment. >> i've just received a call from secretary clinton.

she congratulated us, it's about us. on our victory and i congratulated her and her family on a very, very hard fought campaign. >> everybody should head home, you should get some sleep, we'll have more to say tomorrow. >> john podesta, the clinton campaign chairman there sending the crowd home. remember, hillary clinton did not come out and speak to her supporters that night. she waited until the next day, a reminder of the surreal nature of election night. she also says this, i can go back and reflect tochb short comes, you can blame the message, but i was the candidate. at least she straight up there says on me.

>> you know, you played that moment of john podesta coming out and i was there that night and it will live on in my mind how really numb she must have been, to make a decision to not show up that night, to not shut the door on this campaign and to do it the next morning, it was really reneflective of how hardt was. it's an tonight for her supporters to share in her ventd i venting to share in their collective grief. >> what we haven't heard from clinton is how she felt on election night. this is what she had wanted for many years and got it really snatched away. so this is the hillary clinton,

sort of the raw version that we haven't seen. >> i know that people who have been around her since she lost the election, she's spent so much of that time in classic clinton fashion, studying, frying to figure out what changed in america and why she lost and trump won. she ciriteite -- is it snarky t raise that question on her book tour, she's going to michigan and wisconsin. really? really? really? >> and then see some in trump country. >> i guess that's a little mean. but it's just a fact. that she had been in wisconsin, michigan maybe during the campaign. we'll leave that for another

hello, i'm wolf blitzer, from wherever you're watching around the world. hurricane irma, one of the strongest atlantic hurricanes in history, it's ripping through the caribbean right now, with winds gusting 225 miles an hour. the storm on a collision course for florida, where millions and millions of people are in its path and mandatory evacuations are already under way. we'll take you there live. and a confusing twist, very confusing, the president sending mixed signals in his controversial decision to end the dreamer program, is he backing off his threats? brand new
