carsten: i think absolutely.onald trump would never admit that but clearly he had to do something that he did not want to do. the democrats of course for him are needed not for this policy, but forgetting reforms, getting money for the border wall. the democrats always said they would not be blackmailed. and as we heard from nancy pelosi, they think donald trump made a big mistake. he presented itself as cruel and without a heart. they think now it will help them in the november midterm elections. there is some kind of political play here to be seen on both sides of the aisle on the backs of those children. brent: the polls that have been coming out show that a majority of americans have always been against this zero-tolerance policy of separating children from their parents. but i'm wondering tonight, how is this playing with trump's base? carsten: according to the latest polls that we have, between 55% and 60% of republicans actually support these policies. let's not forget that a crackdown on immigration is on

carsten: we might the top in line -- trump in line on that front.he end, it remains a more symbolic response and the only hope they have is that trump doesn't get reelected at the end of the day. if we start to see the u.s. facing more tariffs, i think we see more problems facing the german economy. that mostly will be a question for merkel's successor probably. guy: always a pleasure. if the anomaly of all been waiting for. battle of the sharks. in the conflict today, anne-marie, christine kicking things off today. >> mike turner actually goes off really well. off.u summit kicks angela merkel under pressure to clinch this immigration deal. i'm looking at the migration fear index in germany versus france. it is certainly steeper and higher. you take all the newspapers in germany and france and we look forward like migration, fear, economy uncertainty and divide that by the number of newspapers. really, this chart is pretty perfect for today and i have to say, does well with what carsten was saying. might use a painfully reference and talk about euro

are going to get to washington a corresponding carsten phenomenas on the story good evening to you carson the us president has said nonstop that his hands are tied that an act of congress was needed to change this policy and now he says he's going to sign an executive order to do that so what is behind ditz. well i think the pressure also from within his own party the republican party to end this policy of zero tolerance of basically charging all illegal immigrants as criminals and taking that should win away from them simply became too strong he. republican senators a member of congress had in the past few days criticized this policy and republican governors have even. audits their national guard troops back because they didn't want to be associated with this even some leaders of the christian evangelical groups who normally support this president no matter what's voiced concerns and it seems that basically the republicans convince president trump that a constant stream of pictures of crying children behind fences held in cages would hurt them at the upcoming midterm elections and that's

carsten: maybe into that, but not as long. will realize they are slowing down the economy already. this wily coyote moment might not be that strong, but the downswing toward the end of 2019 is clearly possible. matt: i thought it was interesting we saw bridgwater come out and say they are worried about the fed hikes and the rate path. everyone is fairly complacent about the rate hikes, should they be? because the fed will realize at some point, the hikes will bite. they will slow down the economy. any external event, you still have a dollar that is strong now, but petering out after the tax reforms would have a repercussion on fed policy and may be markets are too complacent about too many rate hikes coming from the fed next year. matt: thank you so much for coming in today on a historic day, joining me. ing-diba.economist at mark: we will bring you stock movers today, including casino. we have live pictures of the room where the briefing will begin momentarily. shares of casino among the biggest gainer on the stoxx 600 today.

washington correspondent carson phenomena welcome carstens of the house of representatives the votestomorrow on ending this practice which way is it likely to go. well that remains to be seen also we have to keep in mind that there are two different bills in the house of representatives and in the senate and in the end of course those two bills have to mirror each other so this there is some work to do for the republicans first of all to agree on a bill that both houses can agree to both chambers of congress and then of course in the senate the republicans might need some votes from the democrats and then depends on whether the republicans are trying to sneak some provisions on tougher immigration laws into such a bill or if they even want money for donald trump's border wall on the border with mexico or something which is of course unacceptable for the democrats they claim that on the trump is holding those children at the border hostage to force congress to give him money for that wall and they will have none of that and so how is the administration viewing these moves. well it see
