8:14 am
undercover police mingling with the crowds to protect any bystanders and attack any terrorists. >> barry peterson in london. thank you. president trump will be at his mar-a-largo report in florida for new year's eve where he has been spending time on the golf course, despite enjoying the sunshine state, the president is preparing for winter in washington as he looks to rack up more legislative wins on the heels of the historic tax reform bill. >> mr. trump has already scheduled meetings with republican and democratic leaders, while senior white house officials work towards yet another taf shake-up to prepare for the new year. chip reid is in west palm beach with the president. chip, good morning. >> reporter: well good morning. the president said he wants to tackle infrastructure and immigration early in 2018. but for that to happen, both parties will have to back off their entrenched positions and compromise. >> i think all of you were

8:16 am
turnover is that we don't know where we're going with respect to policy, we don't know where we're going with respect to relationships with the hill. >> reporter: but chief of staff john kelly is adding political staff, including a new political strategist in preparation for what is sure to be a tough election season. republicans currently hold a 46 seat majority in the house but even with such a big margin, many republicans are worried they could lose control of the house next year. alex. >> chip reid with the president in florida, thank you. for more we turn to gabriel dibenetti from politico. let's start first with the year ahead. how emboldened does the white house feel, republicans are concerned. >> there is a mix. the white house feels emboldened after passing the tax reform bill. they were concerned they would enter the new bill without having passed
8:17 am
legislation. hasn't happened. so they have the majority in the house and soebts and the white house. they want to try to get things done but the mid terms are looming and they have to figure out what they want to get done now. >> let's talk about the tax bill. marco rubio said the bill probably went too far in helping corporations. you have seen lines of people trying to get ahead on property taxes this year. is there going to be political blow-back on this next year. >> let's put it this way. i pro be pretty surprised if that line from marco rubio were not in all sort of democratic ads soon. they expected to not talk about it at all at this point. it is not a popular plan at all. so republicans really do need to get out there and try to explain it more to the american people. me haven't done that yet and democrats are trying to take this over and say republicans are trying to make it easier for kor korpgs and not for
8:18 am
bill was passed so quickly is because there was an understanding you don't pass landmark legislation in an election year and the white house is talking about things like an infrastructure bill, how feasible is that. >> i think it would have been more feasible if they had tried this first and tried to get democrats on board a year ago. now there is democrats who are essentially saying, we're not going to work with the white house on anything because we don't trust them at this point. a lot of democrats think that when the white house talks about infrastructure, they are really talking about the border wall and things like that. projects that democrats are simply not going to agree with. and now that the election is looming, it is true, there is just not that much will for the parties to work together on things. >> the president raises eyebrows almost on a daily bases with his tweets and this time it was spontaneous interview with "the new york times" at his golf course with no aides present which is pretty unusual. one of the things that he said that stuck was that he said i've been soft on chooip. do you think that will change. >> that is something he's been talking about for a long time. it was a
8:19 am
president last year. and if he does decide to go after china as far as trade goes, this would likely be a -- a look for his base. something that he's been talking to his base voters about. industrial voters in pennsylvania and ohio, people who think that chinese steel in particular has been impacting them. that said, we don't nope what this is actually going to look like or if there is actually any substance behind this. but we'll see. >> things -- speaking of things we don't know about and in sha same interview the president said, speaking of the mueller investigation, there has been no collusion, but i think he's going to be fair. what is your reading of this and the mueller investigation at large. >> that was a pretty interesting thing for him to say because that is a different line that what republicans have been saying. you have republicans across capitol hill and some in the white house already essentially trying to discredit mueller and saying don't worry about this investigation, they trying to poison the well so republicans all over the country don't believe what comes out but for trump to say this is a different line
8:20 am
say it because you have to say something like this and that it is going to be fair. but it was a really interesting change of tact for him. >> he is nothing if not unpredictable. >> that is for sure. >> gabe dibenetti. >> thank you. tomorrow morning on face the nation, john dickerson guest will include senator lindsey graham, republican of south carolina. time for the morning headlines. los angeles time reports police are trying to determine why a former employee of a long beach california law firm returned to the office and shot two former colleagues killing one and injuring another before killing himself. the violence happened on friday as staffers were wrapping up a holiday party. the survivor of the shooting was able to drive himself to the hospital. he is listed in stable condition. it is believed the gunman may have been recently fired from the law firm. usa today reports the centers for disease control and prevention is finding a significant uptick in the number of flu cases this early in
