to come together pray for the victims of this tragedy. there are things we agree on. i'm not terribly optimistic but i'm hopeful this can be an opportunity to find those things and act on them. >> by the weeks and we had chuck schumer communicating with mitch mcconnell. or to find common ground. i was both sides will work on the. >> i would love to see republican leadership say yes to humer. i think it would be a great thg. >> in other words you look small and it looks bad on you and republicans need to step up. it's gotta be something more than lawyer sending pizza to steve scalise's office. that was nice, the hugs, the praying but we need something real. coming together on policy. >> all that stuff is a little bit at the start. >> i think it's good, maybe the
2:32 am
one positive thing is that people realize the other side of the aisle is not evil. i never thought president obama was evil. >> you should heard what he said about you. >> the way you supported yourself during a difficult election was the way it should been done. it's not like hillary clinton herself was the one you hate. you don't like her policies. in terms of those policies, let's be clear. there is a fight for the direction of this country that both sides know they need to turn it away. [inaudible] the very nature of that fight -- they're not exactly compatible, but one of the things you reminded of is that these are politicians. to jerry's point, if the republicans ignore that overture
2:33 am
on the part of chuck schumer, i don't know how they respond, but they've got to. we tend to remember they are sure short-lived affairs. even after 911, they were at each other's throats. >> i think you're t in regard to the pr part of it. charlie has a great point. did you come from completely different ideological avenues. to think that they can pull those together and then you add in special interest which has its own way of wielding power and then also the idea of power, losing that power, a bipartisan agreement will always look like a victory for donald trump as long as he is president and it's doubtful democrats will ever want to see that happen. >> in the past, being the more seasoned among us, when each
2:34 am
side was able to reach out to the other side, it has been done , but the argument is that it can be done. the shooting is one thing, but it's just impossible to last. what you think. >> they have the right idea. even if they hug each other every time a pass in the hall or send each other brownies and pizza, they still fundamentally differ on various ideas, one of which is healthcare. if they can work together in a spirit of good nature, maybe they can be resolved but i think their fundamental differences. for the good of the nation, just seeing friendliness and company are among the republicans and democrats is a positive sign. where there is a well there is a way. >> i totally agree.
2:35 am
it is fine to disagree. fine to bitterly disagree, but the key is to respectfully disagree and i think moments like this help people realize that the better way. >> although, listen, i believe it when i see it. the direction of the country. >> they started saying at the core were all good people. >> what i said is i like the way you purported yourself during an election campaign where others were going nuts about evil hillary's. >> but do you think they will return to that. >> no. is the problem. that stake is pretty big. the direction of the country, president obama took the synod direction to the left. there's no doubt about that. in a number of ways we can devote a whole show to that. republicans have an opportunity
2:36 am
right now to change that. , they are gonna do whatever they can to prevent that. it's going to get nasty. on top of it all you have the cultural left that thinks it's okay to show pictures of them trump heads decapitated. they think he's evil. that's why they do that. >> adam, what were you going to say. >> i think you made the point, they are politicians and they won't necessarily be able to get things done if they keep that up now were just talking about the republicans wanting to roll back what obama did but many of them recognize that, they need to work with their colleagues, even the ones they oppose. >> the bitterness, i hate to say this, democrats warned before the election that for donald trump supporters to beast mart
2:37 am
and recognize the outcome, to accept the new president made done everything they've asked. that nature is not gonna go away unfortunately. here's the thing. donald trump through a lot of punches. on twitter, it was a busy week. remember what the democrats did when he got elected, they called it the resistance. it was like a hunt that took over. >> the resistance starts today was the theme of the day on msnbc. she said she was joining the resistance. that's easier said to done do. he talked about the realistic differences, then i can come together on this.
2:38 am
republicans can barely talk to each other on the changes the senate is looking at. >> you can't solve that problem, even within the republican party so many disagreements. >> so many cap aren't heard. how do you them together. someone needs to step up and bring that leadership. we like the original gop plan and then he didn't, now is talking about the sete, no. >> the irony is schumer has an opening. if you can say listen, if you bring it back.
