ashley, this falls into a pattern in that while the words today may be judged more egregious than most, than all. the president says something that creates a hubbub. maybe the next day, signs of a staff intervention, he says something to clear it up. then on repair occasion, you get what we got today. no one can argue that wasn't donald trump we heard from today. >> i was struck by something that the vice president in argentina said. this is a president who says what he means and means what he says. this was president trump off teleprompter in an area where he's most comfortable, the lobby of his gilded tower doing what he does -- i don't want to say best because that implies a positive connotation. but riffing and speaking his mind unfiltered. >> and if you ask him, he'll say that's what got me this job, that's what got me to the dance. >> he will say that. that's one of the reasons that when you bring in aides including general kelly who is trying to add more discipline and order, he's resistant to their advice because at a certain point he says all of the political wise men said i c

ashley: absolutely. factor is that even though this was a general kelly move and a sign of him asserting his power and the power he really does have in the west wing now to bring order, is nothing happens in the white house the -- if the president doesn't sign off on it. the president had grown increasingly frustrated with bannon because he thought bannon's ego was getting too big and that bannon seemed to be taking outsized credit for what the president viewed as his own accomplishments. early on, bannon faced some trouble with the president when he appeared on the cover of "time" magazine. that was the worst thing you can do if you are a white house staffer. then he participated in this book by josh green, "the devil's bargain." the president was unhappy about that. he felt bannon was taking too much credit for his electoral victory. this is a president who understands media and images just about better than anybody. bothered that really him was the cover image where him and his strategists were sharin

ashley: right.ous medical problems, just to keep obamacare in place. how is mcconnell supposed to deal with that? liz: i agree. bailing out insurance industries for obamacare is totally wrong. they should give tax credits to people. if you have 50 billion lay around money, give tax credits instead of bailing out insurers. i hear you. stuart: you think he should go? ashley: he has failed. stuart: split decision. all right, everybody. split decision it is. but we will all be back. .. stuart: the white house has issued an invitation to moderate democrats, come on over, have a chat, let's talk about tax reform. time to get worried, you bet. republicans are so divided and incompetent that donald trump might need some democrat votes to get anything done. what will democrats go for? a cut in corporate tax rates, yes, but there would be strings attached like corporations only get a tax cut if they spend the extra money the way the left once it spent, couldn't go to shareholders, no extra dividends or stock
