"the five" ." well, that didn't last long. on january 1, mitt romney, a man so stiff you could iron a shirt on him, that is the president and "the washington post." remember that? you know the drill. trump is rude. he lacks character and so on. could have been written on january 1, 2018 or 2017 or 1517. if the definition of insanity is complaining about something that will never change, mitt has made

it to the loonie bin and he was helped by media acting like the blast from the past to indulge his unhappy exes. mitt is still mad about trump. "washington post" and cnn will let him cry on the shoulder. it's tempting for mitt. it feels good to get hugs from a media who once friended you a sexist bully and hurts dogs and keeps women in binders. obama's dry laugh when mitt maybe rush is a problem. this attention is a strange new respect that's gone by tomorrow. the media may pretend to like you because you hate trump but they are just using you. the media was brutal to mitt as they are to anyone right of gastritis trump hadn't won, had a ben rubio or bush, do you think they would've been spared? jeb would have been called a warmonger and rubio a misogynist. to the press, and only acceptable republican is an ex-republican. her name is joe scarborough.

mitt, that warm glow you feel from the left isn't true love. it's a bug zapper. they will pull you out as long as you diss trump but only until it's time for them to fry your ass. jesse, welcome back. why is he doing this? i thought it was because he was going to challenge trump but then i heard he said he has no interest in that. >> he might flip-flop on that. he has flip-flopped on the past. we get it, mitt. you have great character. you drink milk. you don't curse. it's clear you are a mormon. you go to church every sunday. you're perfect. we get it. now you're becoming a scold and it's turning people off. the guy, and i voted for him into primaries in 2008 and 2012 on the republican primary but he says awkward political instincts and he does things and self-serving ways. changed his position on abortion, the individual mandate, immigration, in the 1980s he said he wasn't a

reagan republican. i think at one point he was pro trump and then he was anti-trump and keep things keep changing. look what happened when he ran against barack obama. he let this guy smear his business acumen, coming from barack obama who was an economic illiterate. let it get away and they didn't go for the jugular in the debate over benghazi when he had him on the ropes and let that slide. his timing is terrible. it's like he dusted off a never-trump op-ed from the summer of 2016 and sent it off to the newspaper. this guy's not trying to primary donald trump. you are joining a club. the senate as a club. you are trying to get along and he's making about himself and i know mitch mcconnell sitting there rolling his eyes watching romney come in and hotdog on the first day. meanwhile, these guys just confirm mark kavanaughs, keep the government open, and build a wall. that's all that voters really care about. >> greg: dan and marie, i want to first play donald trump's

response to mitt romney. >> i which mitt -- i wish to be could be more of a team player. we have done a lot. i read his op-ed. if he fought really hard against president obama like he does against me, he would've won the election. >> greg: dan, i'm sure you have very soft opinions about this topic. >> dan: i am pretty pissed about this. i was on twitter on the plane filleting this fraud. he goes out and viciously attacked donald trump in the initial speech, after seeking his support when he was running for president. he fillets him in this discontinuing speech and then goes to bedminster and goes to an interview for a cabinet position and then has the famous dinner in new york. all new york. all of a sudden, this guy he had character with when a child was sitting in front of him, this --

he is a total hoax, the biggest fraud and politics. i'm sorry. he is. he deserved to be called out for the fraud he is. you wanted a job once you could catch a paycheck and some power back? who has more character? after trump got filleted by this idiot in this speech. i'm sorry. i'm really pissed about this. >> greg: i can tell. >> dan: everything wrong with the swamp rodents that only care about themselves. this guys a clown. no one should taken seriously. trump gave him a second and third change and he still screwed him over in the end. >> greg: marie, i know that you agree with everything dan said so we can skip it will go to kennedy. >> marie: donald trump needs to care what mitt romney thinks. he actually will need every republican vote. i think mitt romney, who i -- i worked on the 2012 campaign. all of my friends for that

campaigner like god, now we have to talk about mitt romney again. we that dealt with that. i think he genuinely believes this. he's a person who seems to be from afar a good person, family man, someone who has morals and cares about them in public life. >> greg: you didn't say that when you are running against hi him. >> marie: you will not be able to find a quote for me that talks about his character. i think he genuinely believes this. the bigger point, dan, isn't whether or not you like what he's saying or if this is the right thing to do and quite frankly i don't care what he writes in an op-ed. i care what he does in the senate. for republicans, you all will care a few votes with trumpcare for democrats, we will care if he stands up to trump like jeff flake attempted, bob corker a time state. republicans, you should take these voices seriously. they have genuine arguments with the president's behavior. they are not ridiculous. >> greg: okay, kennedy, the behavior he's referring to is now going on his third year. we have all come to grips with it. we look at the deeds in other

words. romney was saying that he had a bad month. to a lot of people, it was a good month because he is pulling 2,000 troops out of syria. there are people who believe that's good. >> kennedy: and there are people who believe that will show that we shouldn't be in the middle east in the first place. let's talk about mitt romney because that's all mitt romney wants to do right now. to any incoming freshman senator, i put up and shut up. we don't really want to hear about your feelings and how you have the vapors and you are offended by someone's narcissism whose behavior really hasn't changed. the interesting thing about mitt romney is you could argue that president trump is a result of mitt romney's failure because politics, especially when it comes to the presidency, tends to be a reaction. the pendulum swings. you have very -- especially after two-term president, all you have to do is look at clinton, bush. this is just in the modern era and then to obama. obama was the opposite of george w. bush for a lot of people. even independents and some of

the balkans. now donald trump is the exact opposite of president obama. if mitt romney had wanted 2012, there wouldn't be a president trump right now. that's when he asked internalize. if you have a problem with them and this is where i have a little bit more respect for people like lindsey graham and rand paul, go with specifics. if you have a policy issue, talk about it and dissect it. that's where you can have -- >> jesse: graham and trump never got along. they hated each other the primary. trump give his cell phone number out. now grandma's dining with the president almost every day. -- graham is dining with the president almost every day. if you try to warm up to him and try to move him in the right direction on policy. >> marie: it doesn't work. graham has had no impact on donald trump's foreign policies at all. speed six i disagree. look at what happened with syria. now he's easing the withdrawal.

he's committed a lot less troops now after he spoke to him. >> marie: if there isn't room for a mitt romney and donald trump's party, it's a problem nationally. >> kennedy: the party has passed him. the party has passed establishment republicans. it's a constant evolution. the nancy pelosis of the world standing stark contrast of the alexandria ocasio-cortezs. it doesn't mean the new generation is better than the one they are passing but that's how the system works. >> greg: the one thing that i wanted to talk about, trump has an effect on everybody's family. it disrupts families. even with mitt's family, with his knees, what's her name? ronna, calling him a first-time democrat? >> marie: incoming freshman senator . >> greg: up next, a big

briefing at the white house on border security. migrants attempting to rush the border yet again. people tell me all the time i have the craziest job, the riskiest job. the consequences underwater can escalate quickly. the next thing i know, she swam off with the camera. it's like, hey, thats mine! i want to keep doing what i love. that's the retirement plan. with my annuity i know there's a guarantee. annuities can provide protected income for life. learn more at retireyourrisk.org not having a good breakfast can make you feel like your day never started. get going with carnation breakfast essentials®. it has protein, plus 21 vitamins and minerals including calcium and vitamin d, to help your family be their best.

♪ >> 5.6 billion approved by the house is such a small amount compared to the level of the problem. i said over the weekend to a number of people, the wheel and the wall, there are some things that never get old. >> on our last meeting, the president said i'm going to shut the government down. they are now feeling the heat. it's not helping the president. it's not helping the republicans. to be the owners of this shut down. >> marie: president trump and democratic leaders battling it out over border security even after today's briefing the situation room. the meeting comes after yet another clash of the border with migrants attempting to cross a section of fencing in california. border agents used tear gas and pepper spray to push back against what dhs is calling "a violent mob." states are fighting back against trump's immigration. governor andrew cuomo pardoning more than 20 illegal immigrants

in new york and also taking a swipe at president trump. >> new york will move forward not by building a wall, my friends, but by building new bridges. let new york say that the federal government may shut itself down but it will never extinguish the statue of liberty's torch. it will never erase the words of her poem. >> marie: so, jesse, you get very fired up on this day back from vacation. tomorrow nancy pelosi will take over as speaker of the house. >> jesse: okay. >> marie: are you okay? the house will pass funding bill that may not include any wall funding, may include a little bit. the senate passed something similar. if something like that were to get to president trump's death, should he veto it? >> jesse: i think he dug in and has to veto it and has to hold firm on the wall funding at this point or else he looks soft. he will not want to look soft

because he is a tough guy. i think mexico is paying for the wheel too. i went to the dr, that's where i got this great tan. so when you go there, you go to any foreign country, they ask you lots of very invasive personal questions. have i've been around any livestock recently? am i caring lots of cash? they want to know about all of my personal identity and forms of identity. >> kennedy: have you never traveled internationally? >> marie: you sound surprised. >> jesse: when i come back, they give me a hard time. do i look like a cupcake? no, i'm not a threat. imagine if we had airport security at the border. you check someone's i.d. you look them up and down pretty find out who they are. imagine if you had no security at the airports. that's basically what the democrats want. imagine open borders at the airports, marie. you have people coming in. you don't know where they're from. they are throwing rocks at tsa.

it's chaos. you can have it. that's all they want as they want to border wall. >> greg: this is all to avoid the question about him being with livestock. [laughter] >> jesse: two chickens. p3 democrats don't want open borders. the bill that they pass tomorrow will likely include some border security funding. kennedy, how does it end? >> kennedy: it doesn't. the immigration battle will go on and on and on. it's one of those bones that the pesky washington dogs just loved to chew on and ruminate over and no one wants to bury it. if they do, they are just going to dig it back up. it's one of the easier areas to find compromise because neither side is far from the middle ground but they don't want to find it together because democrats really don't want to give the president a win on immigration but the president is also backed against a wall because you have people like ann coulter saying that he's going to fold. she has been a very vocal

advocate of the president. she obviously she wrote a book about his presidency. at the same time, she's willing to pull her support and she has a lot of fans and supporters, they feel like they are caught in the middle. i don't think that the argument ends anytime soon. all congress gives us is a bunch of band-aids. we are not kids who fell down in the schoolyard with a couple boo-boos. we have systemic problems. they are not willing to tackle it. >> marie: we also have 800,000 federal employees now at christmas time not getting paid, the tsa agents will ask you about chickens, they are not getting paid even though they have to show up to work. they will get paid retroactively. congress usually retroactively pays people but no paychecks. >> kennedy: i heard it was part of the essential workers. >> marie: may be somebody fact-check it for us. they are essential but they have to go on they don't get paid.

if you are essential, you show up, you just don't get a paycheck until the government reopens. that's my understanding. greg, how does the shut down end? not the immigration debate, because that's a bigger issue. >> greg: right now it's not. it's people's lives go on. it's called a partial shutdown for a reason. it's not a shutdown. i think it's a personal vendetta right now. it's a marital stat that calls for an objective mediator like dr. drew. it's over linguistics. it's a wall. it's a fence. whatever you want to call it. they need to get the people who know, like engineers, to comment and tell you exactly what you need here and there. leading politicians figure this out is never going to happen. get dr. drew in with an engineer to sit down and figure it out and do it around a table. >> jesse: we elected these

politicians to solve problems but we really just needed dr. drew. >> greg: dr. drew is better than dr. phil. >> kennedy: if dr. laura, dr. drew, dr. phil were on a plane and the flight attendant asked for a doctor, dr. drew will be the only one able to go back and treat a patient. >> marie: legally able to treat patients. dam, i feel like you have some thoughts on governor cuomo. i could hear you. >> greg: can i read your mind? he's a crooked thug. he's a "no" good thug. >> dan: people like governor cuomo, it's why i'm now in florida. one thing about new york that's common is we are -- we can't escape from your quick enough. the hegemonic liberal rule. on the veto question, of course president trump should veto it. what i care is that he owns border security and protects our

country from an endless wave of people crossing our border. i find it comical when you ask liberals, they say walls don't work. why not? because you can climb over them with a ladder. there's a ladder store the border? do they carry it? do they bury it? the whole idea from a former secret service agents perspective, stopping people from doing something easily. not stop them permanently. >> kennedy: there are parts of the border where it's kind of laughable. i went to the san diego border in the wall stops and then there are a bunch of rocks and just kind of walk on the rocks then you're in mexico and then you drink margaritas and do questionable things like you would on spring break and then you go back to the u.s. side. >> dan: building a wall or we can build a wall. >> kennedy: there's parts where you can't. there's also eminent domain issues which make this whole thing -- it could be very expensive and it doesn't cover the people who come in and overstay visas. that's where congress has to come in. working with these things

completely independently is also a little bit of a nonstarter. >> jesse: i have a challenge for nancy and chuck. i think they should go to the board of themselves and see with their own eyes what's really going on down there and where walls are needed and where they are not. >> marie: we will see if they take you up on it. up next, former "new york times" editor accusing the paper of anti-trump coverage. we will tell you why next. your mornings were made for better things than rheumatoid arthritis. before you and your rheumatologist move to another treatment, ask if xeljanz xr is right for you. xeljanz xr is a once-daily pill for adults with moderate to severe ra for whom methotrexate did not work well enough it can reduce pain, swelling and further joint damage, even without methotrexate. xeljanz xr can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections,

♪ >> dan: president trump's criticism of the fake news gaining support. former "new york times" executive editor joe abramson calling up the paper for being "unmistakably anti-trump." in a new book, she hits her

former employer for profiting off anti-trump coverage saying "there was an implicit financial reward for the times and running lots of drop stories, almost all of them negative." abramson is going after "the washington post" for biased headlines in news and articles. kennedy, is this one of those "water is wet" stories that the times is biased. i think the angle that's interesting is not that the times is biased. everybody gets that. everyone has a bias. we are human beings. the story that's fascinating is that she expose the financial interest. they become one big clickbait thing. >> kennedy: that's been the obvious story going for a few years now about print media. it's dying. so you've got all these institutions that are really trying to figure out how to get subscribers. we also learned from her forthcoming booklet at the thes has a billion dollar a year subscription business. it went through the roof the day after the president was inaugurated because they do have a liberal readership and you have to balance the opinion side

with the new side. what jill abramson is saying is that the balance is completely out of whack because they have tasted the delicious fruits of digital success. if this is what they are selling and their customers are buying it, it's going to be really, really hard for the sake of truth and objectivity to rein that back in. you're not going to put that horse back in the barn anytime soon because investors and shareholders, they want to see that bottom line. they have found a recipe for success. the question is what do they do from here because obviously if the president has been so successful in driving subscribers to "the new york times" digital and print platforms, then why wouldn't they do anything but try to get him reelected in 2020. that's been the president's argument to all these news outlets. you need me. >> dan: it's a great argument. he said that about cnn. they have 100% success record of failure. it's incredible. i think they would be out of business completely if it wasn't

for trump. is it time to at least acknowledge on the liberal left that this is not the news business anymore. it's the propaganda business. you even have insiders admitting listen, it's a scam to make money. >> marie: i think every news organization has difficulties separating news and opinion. >> greg: not us, marie. >> marie: that's just the fact. what's interesting about the times is there's a difference between writing negative stories about donald trump that are accurate but highlighting them in a different way and when the president says the stories are fake which almost all of them have actually in the long run turned out to be true. he that's absolutely -- >> dan: they are still promoting collusion. that's not true. >> marie: stories in "the new york times" it been proven false. >> dan: she is talking about the media in general. >> marie: we are talking about "the new york times." most of the reporting on the president has turned out to be accurate from "the new york times."

she's talking about emphasizing certain things, the headline, where you put things. in her book she goes after a man, she got fired so he could come in and replace her. i think there's a little bit of "new york times" inside baseball getting some of their internal stuff out in this book. >> dan: the problem that i have with this story is yes, all outlets have a bias. i get it. >> greg: except here. >> dan: on a serious note. when you look at fox, when we hire liberals. i assure you, marie is liberal. it's not an act. you go to "the new york times" and the post and they fake conservatives. >> marie: bret stephens is not a fake conservative. >> dan: you have all these phonies that right over there. i don't think it's an accurate argument. >> jesse: she is a little

phony. she was wearing a maga hat in the green room. the times, they can train their fire at trump and that's fine. go to the other side. where are your hard-hitting investigate of stories on chuck and nancy and the dnc and ocasio-cortez and democratic donors? because your site is so clean. you do everything so clean. there's nothing going on over there that needs any inspection. that's what i disliked. also there's a huge political espionage scandal that is sitting right in front of everybody's lap. think about it. spying on the trump campaign before and after the election and the only people breaking news on it are dan bongino, sara carter, kennedy and "the new york times" reporters are sitting there with a pulitzer waiting to be awarded and they don't want anything to do with it. >> dan: i think it's about the intensity of the coverage. when it comes to trump, despite no evidence whatsoever of the

collusion thing, when it's a dems scandal, they touch on it and move on. >> greg: she is like a parent who turned her kid in. the kid being "the new york times." and she is agreeing with trump. trump has set for the longest time that he's now the product. he's the product and we are all different restaurants delivering our take on trump. i would say fox news is also different in the sense that our opinion and facts are clearly delineated. that wall is clear. you can feel the wall when you watch daytime and you can see it at nighttime and he can see we know our opinion is clear. what she is admitting to this that modern journalists are publicists. the only business model keeping the times afloat and msnbc is that they cater to an audience who wants their assumptions met. journalists become publicists. i don't know why she expected to

be any different at the times because it's kind of always been this way. they have always been a liberal -- publicists for liberals. >> kennedy: same thing with howard stern. you had more people garage listening to him. my grandmother, rest her soul, watched hannity just so she could yell at him. >> dan: the latest effort to connect with voters fails miserably. my teeth have always been a very sore spot for me,

emotionally, socially. if i would've known that i was gonna be 50 times happier... i would've gone into aspen dental much sooner. it was a very life changing experience... and it felt like i was me again. that's when i realized i hadn't been for three years. at aspen dental we're all about yes. like yes to flexible hours and payment options. yes to free exam and x-rays for new patients without insurance. and yes whenever you're ready to get started, we are too.

you're a politician, you have to pick a lane and stick with it. it's one of the critical parts of branding. she's very much introducing herself to a massive part of the country. she has some name recognition but not someone like joe biden. >> jesse: i think beto looks like you. the sweater and the collar. >> marie: aoc and beto. i'm not a big aoc fan from policy perspective. but they have social media savvy. it's a different generation of politicians. when she cooked dinner, it went viral. so when people saw it and said that's my life. people want politicians who seem real and that's why you see both of them. >> kennedy: i hope that is not the threshold. >> marie: i think it's necessary but not sufficient. >> jesse: isn't she a harvard professor? get me a beer. >> greg: it was humanizing. >> marie: elizabeth warren i don't think will be the nominee.
