someone who is very much a part of the establishment of the republican party, he was the mayor of chattanoogaeone who is the chairman of the senate foreign relations community. donald trump has feuded with this class before he said things about mitch mcconnell. he said things about lots and lots of senators. the very tree ole and i would point to the responses of senators like rob portman. that stuff matters, because to your point, this is a vote trump needs. you can be as out sider as you want and rally the base, this is the senate that donald trump currently has, that's not going to be changing until the 2018 election. if he wants to get anything done between now and then, he has to deal with the corkers, the jeff flake and john mccain's of the world. what he's doing right now makes open warfare with them much more likely. >> when you have a two vote pad, you can't afford to not get along with them. he said, i don't think he appreciates when the president of the united states speaks, the impact it has around the world. corker has been more direct about this issue. right after charlottesvill

possibly as far north as chattanooga. it doesn't take strong winds to do this.you're pushing those trees around, back and forth, side to side. that's all it takes is a few hours of that. the more rain you get, the more it loosens the soil. right now, gulfport, mississippi sustained at 50 miles an hour. we've had a couple hurricane forced gusts, we don't have super strong wind by the way, the palm fronts are blowing. we've only had gusts of 38 miles per hour, the wins are going to start to come around. the storm surge is going to be a problem. more than likely docks and things like that, you have some big wave action as well, that's riding on top of that surge. beating up the coastline, the full light of this won't be seen until tomorrow morning, the good news, it's not going to strengthen any further, we have a long night ahead of us. we're waiting on the second landfall of nate. >> this is bill karins, i'm here in the studio with you guys. talk a little bit about -- you know north georgia well, north bama well, how many power outages do you expect from the trop

even atlanta, chattanooga and knoxville and from there on, you could also be looking at dangerous wind gusts to bring trees down and power lines down. then we talk about rainfall. this model plot is somewhere in the middle. you have some models that put out smaller numbers and some put out higher numbers. widespread you'll be looking at 2 to 5 inches of rain. but there will be heavier pockets that get put into some of those really strong thunderstorms bands, brianna, that could produce as much as 10 inches of rain. they are going to be isolated in spots but that's going to be a big concern. again, this is not only a concern for the areas that may take the landfall but for the dozen of states in the eastern u.s. that will also be impacted by nate as it continues to move. >> people in a wide swath of the gulf coast concerned. we know you're keeping an eye on things for them. thank you so much. we're now learning that the man who murdered 58 people in las vegas, he wanted to know precisely where his deadly bullets were going. a law enforcement source tells cnn the gunman tried to buy but

i didn't agree with him on a whole lot of stuff, but he did his home work, he was the mayor of chattanooga and he learned about foreign policy, and he figured it out, he tried to make the right decision, and he's exactly what a congressman should be. they might even understand rex tillerson, they don't understand donald trump. by the way, if you think our government is stratified and bureaucratic, we're like apple compared to foreign governments, they are so strateified they don't know what's going on. they can't imagine what's going on. that can turn into a real danger. >> at this stage in the game, what we -- it's delusional to think that things are going to be otherwise, you really are wondering how this trifecta of adults in the room, something that, a phrase that the president really doesn't like, how they are going to manage and keep up their discipline to continue this marathon and deal with these huge foreign policy challenges and also not repulse the president and turn the president against them. and we have seen tillerson struggle with that just this past two weeks. >> my thanks.

he's a conservative republican but a successful businessman and a clear i'd former mayor of chattanooga. i think he's given voice that are widely shared in his caucus. i don't think it advances our national security interest for this to go on much longer. i do think it's important that the president be mindful of his very narrow margin in the senate, and if he has any hope of making progress on his lejts laifb agenda, continuing to pick fights with senior republicans, the chairman of the armed services committee, the chairman of the foreign relations committee, the majority leader is not going to advance the president's interests this fall. >> conversations that corker is talking about the deep distrust, the anger by so many republican senators, he suggests, only happening in private conversations, not public conversations. >> well, i was going to say you'd have to ask them, but i know, wolf, in the run up to this section you mentioned that you asked all 52 republican senators to consider coming on tonight, so they're not here for you to ask them. i do think there's real concern about p

host: chattanooga, tennessee, james calling in on the line for those affected. good morning, james.ood morning -- caller: good morning, c-span. as a vietnam veteran -- a disabled veteran, i am not surprised at what i am hearing. i am 68 years old. at an early age, when i came out of vietnam in 1971, with ailments and sickness, that is all the v.a. would do, pills. anything you had, the veterans of information would give you a tale. my veins -- my main message is -- it is an individual's choice. you are given the opportunity to say no. a lot of people get the drugs to sell the drugs and they take the drugs. i think it is a personal choice. here is my point -- it all started one way or another with the government. local government, federal government, state government, certain policies that brought on all of these different situations. that we have all across america. because of the politics and policies of this country, society is all screwed up. they can take the drugs in the neighborhood when they wanted to and they take the drugs out of the neighborhood. racism andsystematic contr

>> did you see the chattanooga rotary club interview that i gave when i was still contemplating whetheror not? >> yes. >> did you see earlier comments i made about chaos? this has been building for a long time. i had a private dinner with the president. i've played golf with the president. i've intervened when the staff has asked me to intervene, when he's getting ready to go off the rails which happens, as you know, often. look, i've done a lot of things privately. this has just continued to build. but i think the thing that has probably caused me to be most critical is kneecapping his secretary of state when we're trying to deal with north korea in a manner that doesn't lead us to a regional, global conflict. when you end up putting yourself in a position where you're not supporting trying to resolve, especially with china, this issue diplomatically, you basically are taking the country to a binary choice which can, in fact, lead to war. that's when i began -- i think when he got upset with me was when i talked -- i don't know why. i complimented his national security team for keeping

think of as a natural unit for putting insurance together across the state lines in tennessee, chattanoogas on the georgia border, and lots of people across every day to go to work and go back home again and it would make a lot of sense in those cases. that is do not think not 1% of the solution of the issue, but there's no particular it in my mind. host: betsy from mary in tennessee -- let's hear from larry in tennessee. caller: governor bredesen, i voted for it in my mind. host: governor bredesen and governor haslam. i vote for the person and i voted for every governor we have had in the state of tennessee, democrat or republican, since 1972. i had a problem with blue cross blue shield back in 1994. on ournot pay any hospital bill when i had a leg operated on, so i eventually dropped it and i got under tenncare and for a little while under mr. governor bredesen in tennessee, and eventually, they cut -- i was not on it long, but .hey cut me off of it they changed rules, regulations are whatever, so for basically 20 years, i was self paying, which was one of the best ways care oforld to ta

stomachs churn with fury and america's should as well as newtown, aurora, blacksburg, charleston, chattanooga, lafayette, san bernardino, orlando, and now las vegas. what's needed is national resolve and for anyone who says that we should only offer condolences, let me just say very simply, let us honor those victims, keep faith with their memory so their lives and loss will not be in vain. -- in vain by taking action that makes america safer. let us redouble our determination. the bill is ready to go, the agenda is set, the action is clear. let us honor their memories through action and if the president believes that this carnage was pure evil, let him lead if not today, tomorrow, and if not tomorrow, wednesday when he visits las vegas. if these actions were pure evil, let us all lead by our example. and let us move forward to stop this carnage in the future. we grieve these losses but we need to recognize that the measures now before congress are a travesty and a dishonor to those lives that were lost. one of these proposals is an innocuous sounding hearing protection act. let me repeat, he
