it's being called a stunning defeat request of the president. gop lawmakers pulled the healthcare bill late this afternoon. the president made the decision seconds before the house expected to vote. as you can see from the run down. tweet us using the #5at630. let's get started. routundown it was very close, very tight margin, we got to votes from the democrats. i've been saying for the last year and a half, that the best thing we can do politically speaking is let obamacare explode. >> that was president trump's reaction there after the gop could not muster enough votes to pass put the healthcare bill. you heard him right there. he blamedhe
6:31 pm
lack of support for causing the bill to fall short. there's been a lot of back and forth. earlier we heard from paul ryan then nancy pilosi saying this was a victory for democrats. yesterday was when the vote was supposed to happen seven years to when obamacare was passed but pulled it last night. >> it's going to be interesting to see where we go if healthcare is dead in the water or not. to joining us to break this down is gary norred linger at joshua washington university and spencer and lead. thank you for coming on and talking about this. where do we go from here after all of this? >> i think this is definitely not a win for the republicans today. i think president trump and speaker paul ryan had a tough day but we can't overlook some of the positives of today and one of those positives is this narrative i was playing out in the media leading
6:32 pm
this fractured relationship between president trump and speaker paul ryan. what we saw today adversely was these two gentlemen, leaders of the country not playing the blame game, no tweets, accusations. you saw speaker paul ryan thank president trump in working on this relationship putting congress, you're relationship needs to be strong and effective and that was definitely one of the biggest hits against former president obama his inability to work with congress. >> does it look like like that here too, because the republicans do have control and they could not get this done. >> you saw speaker paul ryan talk to us, any party going into a governoring party going to go through growing pains and not along with that a republican party is a big tent
6:33 pm
you have members of congress. these competing ideas, even though it wasn't successful today, it's going to make a healthcare bill more effective and improve the quality of life for voters in the future >> let's let gary jump in here. i got a quick question, we heard president trump blame the democrats. do you think the way this is today, is this a failure for white house? failure for paul ryan? who's to blame for this >> i think it is probably more of a failure for the congressional republicans. the winners are the 20 some million people on obamacare. but i've been watching president trump closely for nearly two years. unlike a real narrow sissist, president trump is very loyal to the people loyal to him and he does not want the millions of people among his forgotten men and women in this country to not have
6:34 pm
i think this is the second best thing for president trump. >> you say the second best thing. he says the first day in office we were i'm going to get this fixed, repeal and replace, they've been working on it seven years and it's dead in the water >> number one they didn't think they would win the white house in november. two on his first day in office, president trump did sign an executive order to not do anything that furthers obamacare >> let's take a listen. >> what would be really good with in democrat support in the democrats when it explodes, which it will, if they got together with us and get a real healthcare bill, i'd be totally open to it and i think that's going to happen. >> spencer did the gop, you know, push this too fast to try and get this through to cram it all in >> again, we're
6:35 pm
into this new congress. i want to get back to gary's point about the real winners isn't the nancy pilosi. the losers are the american people. obamacare will explode in 2017. unfortunately this didn't get through today. but you know, the real loses the unfortunate voters are the people that the going to suffer under obamacare >> you talk about the exploding. that doesn't sound great for the voters out there. so is is there any possibility, any action do you think that can be taken on healthcare this year? the president said, i'm going to move on and tax reform has been another big issue of his. can he just afford to leave this behind and move on to something else >> we're going to see. this is the concept of competing ideas. no one wants 400 members of congress to all agree on one idea. that doesn't make it a great idea. we want competing ideas. we want competing thoughts of how to make this bill better. that's what's going to happen
6:36 pm
word. at the end of the day if this does explode if the premiums go up, who are the american people going to look back and blame for this? the democrats or the republicans? >> i think they will blame both. good heavens. the congressional ratings and the ratings of all four congressional leaders are far lower than president trump's approval ratings. >> thanks so much for guys. coming in tonight. hopefully things will be a little bit calmer this weekend than they've been the past few days. president trump's former campaign manager paul man ford volunteered. he worked for a russian billionaire to advance the interest of vladimir putin but he did not disclose this. president trump said he didn't know about it when he came on as his manager. the committee is now looking into russia's alleged interference in the 2016 election. gop committee chairman did he have van nunez said today, if it's not -- it's no the clear if man ford's testimony will be i
6:37 pm
public or behind closed doors, nunez also told reporters the surveillance records he's seen do not back up president trump's complaint that his conversations were wiretapped. >> clear on this for many weeks now. there was no wiretapping of trump towers, that didn't happen >> nunez has said he's seen evidence of intercepted conversations. he also said nunez has not shared any of his evidence with him or other member office house intelligence community, >> created quite the rift between erving on the intel community. politics out of it. clearly doesn't look like it was. >> we've heard from both sides of the aisle, john mccaine said the way this is handled is absolutely bizarre. he believes there should be some sort of independent
6:38 pm
investigation. it is a story you saw first right here on fox 5, two teenagers accused of raping a 9th grader in a rockville high school rest room. the case caught the attention of capitol hill and the white house. the suspects came to the u.s. illegally last year. both were caught and targeted for deportation hearings that never happened. fox reports on the case and the system that let them remain in the country. >> reporter: in tan exclusive tv interview with fox news, the defense attorney representing accused rockville high school rapistist henry sanchez said his client is innocent. according to his attorney, the alleged assault in put a boy's bathroom last thursday was consensual and that he will be acquitted >> no scratch, no bruises, no injury, also this is a bathroom in the middle of the day where it doesn't appear that she was screaming, anybody heard anything going on. there were other kids apparently saw going in. so basically, i think he's going to tell the j
6:39 pm
think i'm that 12 citizens of will find him not guilty. >> reporter: no response to an innocence claim, the montgomery county police department late today to take a polar opposite position >> there's physical evidence of a rape and sexual assault. it's very clear from the investigation there was no consent in this whatsoever. >> reporter: jezic's interview came with us immediately after an interview. a full-blown high profile jury trial with one of the caused defendanting by one maryland's top rated trial attorneys is likely to inflame tensions in this already divided community >> if they do somehow prevail in their claims that he -- that he did not in fact commit rape, then they need to make sure that the hand this guy over to ice >> the rape charges have flamed the political battle with house judiciary riding the secretary of homeland security security blaming the
6:40 pm
lacks deportation policies and case information on the two suspects, that while the political in maryland grants state-wise sanctuary to illegals. she's facing heat from the republican governor and republicans in state legislature. >> when our law enforcement arrests somebody, their hands will be completely tied as far they were terrorist, no matter what, this bill no exceptions, they can not work, local law enforcement cannot work with ice >> this is a crime, this is a rape, and nothing in this bill would predict law enforcement and montgomery county to prosecute this to crime to the fullest extent of the law. >> reporter: no matter the outcome, maintain both accused are here illegally should be deported anyway because they crossed the border
6:41 pm
