chief white house correspondent ed henry is live in austin, texas. president is trying to talk about something different today, right? >> reporter: he is. he's trying to turn the page perhaps stay on his own game plan which was to get out on the road and do some fund-raising for democratic entities. he's been doing a lot of that the last couple of days but also talk up the economy. stay on his game. the fact of the matter is this crisis is overshadowed obviously the entire trip. he's saying here on the road that what republicans need to do back in washington is pass that $3.7 billion emergency request to deal with the crisis but it's very clear what you're hearing from speaker john boehner, a fired up john boehner, is that the president is to blame here and is not going to get a blank check. listen. >> this country succeeds when everybody has a shot. the country does better when the middle class does better. and when there are more ladders of opportunity into the middle class. that's the kind of economy that works here in america. >> this is a proble

it's good to be in austin, texas.an everybody please give kenzie a big round of applause for the great introduction? i -- you know, that's because i love y you. everybody knows i love austin, texas. i -- every time i come here, i tell you how much i love you. i love austin. i love the people, i love the barbecue, which i will get right after this. i like music. i got good memories here. i've got good friends. i was telling somebody, the last time i walked a real walk, where i was kind of left alone, was in austin, texas. right before the debate here during the primary in 2007, 2008? must have been 2008. and i was walking along the river, and nobody noticed me. and i felt great. and then on the way back, somebody did notice me and secret service started coming around and -- but that first walk was really good. so let's face it, i just love austin. love the people of austin. i want to thank a proud texan, congressman sheila jackson lee, for being here today. we appreciate her. it is great to play at the paramount. i i f

and i didn't want to just go show up on the ramp in austin, texas, and shake his hand and say welcome to texas, mr. president, when the fact is we have a humanitarian crisis on our hands, on the southern border, and the president needs to be engaged. the president needs -- he's coming to texas. he's 311 miles from austin to mcallen. air force one is a pretty fast ride. >> let me ask from this standpoint. you requested specific things from him, and the president responded. what did you ask for and what did he say? >> the president said all of these philosophically, he said he agreed with all these. the first was to put the national guard -- to secure the boa border. we know how to secure the border. the director of public safety, we have done enough surges. we know how to put the resources on the border to drive down the criminal activities astoundingly low. it's amazing what happens when you surge in, when you show that force, if you will, then the cartels and the other illegal activities drop down considerably, i mean, amazingly low. >> you can effectively control the border. >> you

bill: the president wakes up in austin, texas, but still no visit to the border. wake up in austin. butted the blame is shifting. it's almost predictable for washington these days. >> i with say it's predictable for this president in particular. he doesn't have another page in his playbook. when he doesn't know how to handle a problem. his de facto move is to blame republicans. but i think that's an argument that is a gutsy argument. because he structured his second term around the idea that he can work around congress. the white house put out an update on the year of action, listing the things the president has done working around congress. but on this one issue he can't work around congress? bill: there was a lot from rick perry with hannity. >> we have a humanitarian crisis on our hands on the southern border and the president needs to be engaged. he's coming to texas. he's 311 miles from the border. air force one is a pretty fast ride. i think about the president george w. bush received when he didn't go to norms after katrina. the first thing i asked him when i got on to air fo

two days waking up this morning in austin, texas and that has not moved yet. there's another bit of legislation in congress which seems to be a bit of a stretch right now but we can talk about that in a moment. i don't see this being solved by anyone any time soon. >> that's very sad. >> both sides coming up with ideas. i want to get you in on this right off the top because this is the situation where we are seeing, i think uniquely, bipartisan criticism of the president in terms of the situation, how it's been handled, he was not front and center down at the border but says he has people there. >> right. what do you think the white house can do to improve this situation? both in terms of how they're communicating their level of interest and focus to the problem and steps to make it better? >> look. it doesn't look good. he's playing pool, drinking beer with the colorado governor and -- >> fundraisers. >> there's a very serious issue going on. humanitarian issue, crisis and i think that whatever side you're on in terms of how it should be handled, the presiden
