that's the assessment of both the gop and the president's allies.led and it's been 48 hours, republicans are starting to kind of dial back that criticism like we just saw with chuck grassley on camera there. >> what about this matter of ambassador mcfall and the united kingdom citizen. what about them being turned over that he needs to speak with his national security team about whether the russians will be allowed to question or prosecute them, whatever they want to do? >> well, the president said it was an interesting idea. obviously a lot of critics -- we saw this monday -- that say this is a ridiculous thing to say or even propose something that could happen. really what putin had proposed was that mueller would be able to go to russia and see the interview process with the 12 people indicted and russia would in turn come to the u.s. and see the interview with u.s. officials involved in the mueller investigation, which clearly from a u.s. standpoint isn't something that would be beneficial to the united states. >> shepard: finally on this say on

gop. but in both the short-term and long-term there is going to have to be some kind of change in my view. for a long time the republicans have been running on the three legged stool that reagan originally won on a 1980 and have carried over for a long time. it is a combination of fiscal andervatism, foreign policy hawkishness. bush and reagan all contact is. you can only cut taxes so much. on social issues, republicans lost on marriage equality but fought abortion to a draw. actually, that's a big achievement considering how hard it is to slow or stop social change in general. hawkishness,licy it has been serving republicans really well in the 1980's and 1990's, the cold war and all. you have mixed opinions about how that went in the bush era, in style and in substance i think the republican party needs to figure some new things out to adapt to some of the changes that are shown in the data. and i think that was part of inald trump's advantage 2016. you had over a dozen candidates running

the gop has driven the narrative. they're driving the investigation.d to approve it and the doj is a republican administration, driving the attack as a witch hunt. >> let's not forget. what is the mueller probe about? it is about proving collusion with russia. yet there's -- >> and protecting our elections. >> there's a steady drip drip drip of unsavory tidbits coming out of it. what has happened, paul manafort being indicted, has nothing to do with russia collusion, michael cohen talking about payments to a porn star, nothing to do with russian collusion. it is a slow, steady drip drip drip, but not backing up the original argument that the trump campaign colluded with the russians. this ties in a little more closely, talking about whether or not trump knew about the meeting. all of this is becoming noise because it has nothing to do with what started it. back to the witch hunt argument. >> no, it doesn't. let me tell you what the real deal is. it is not about collusion, it is about our being attacked by russia in regard to elections. and 30 indictmen

i hope america sees through what he's trying to do. >> how does it go away with gop control? you all control everything. so why hasn't it gone away. in why don't the doj turn over documents to the senate? >> jason: oh, gee. john, i want to give you the last word here. you have like 10 seconds. what does the average fbi agent, the rank and file, what do they think when they see james comey say vote for democrats! >> can we just get back to being agents and doing our jobs without all the political discussion? that's what the rank and file agents are thinking. we don't want our directors to be political. we want to have the public's trust and do the job that they're doing right now. >> you're right. my grandfather was a career fbi agent. i can't thank those men and women enough for what they do and how they do it. gentlemen, thank you. what are the democrats really after when it comes to russia? rush limbaugh has a theory. stay with us. >> jason: so what are the democrats really after when it comes to the russian obsession? rush limbaugh put out an interesting theory yesterday.

and in washington, major pushback from gop lawmakers. farm exports have been the prime target of retaliation from u.s. trading partners. agriculture secretary sonny perdue says the government will help the hardest hit products -- soybeans, corn, dairy, pork -- partly using funds from a depression-era program to boost farm prices. perdue calls this a short-term solution, but iowa senator chuck grassley says what farmers need in the long term are markets and opportunity, not government handouts. senator ben sasse is more critical, calling the aid gold crutches. he says tariffs and bailouts won't make america great. it's going to make it 1929 again. gop lawmakers, with few exceptions, expressed concern about the plan. senators john thune, bob corker, jeff flake, they say farmers need trade deals, not welfare. >> this $12 billion announced today suggests that this is going to be a longer-term problem than the president said. you know, this trade wars are easy to win, you know, not so much. >> the aid starts in september, just in time for ele

you had a gop congressman who, you know, brought the witnesses' family into it.mocratic congressman that actually offered to get a purple heart for what mr. strzok endured. i'm going to stipulate something here. i've been a cautious skeptic, as you know, of the russia investigation from its onset. but i also desperately, desperately believe that it's not a witch hunt, that the people that are working the investigation, to mr. strzok's point, there are so many layers of redundancies. they're doing their job. let it commence. let it be completed. however, i do believe that the i.g. did a great job in putting together his report. and in his report, he stated that there was no material acts conducted that they could determine throughout the investigation of mr. strzok, mr. mccabe, mr. comey, and all the upper echelon senior exclusives related to the hillary clinton case as well as the russia collusion case -- >> and the gop said that's bunk, jimmy, and they'll prove it. did they do it today. >> here's the other thing. everything that happened today was rehearsed. we

. >> we are told the president's four finallives are amy cony barrett, kavanaugh, most gop members theyld be happy with any of the four. with the absence of john mccain, the president will need all gop senators and democrats hoping vulnerable democrats will hold tight and vote against the president's nominee. >> each senator understands this is a historic decision, it'll decide the future of this court for generation or more. i didn't predict how all of 49 or 48 colleagues on democrat will vote if john mccain is vote, 50-49 senate. one republican senator can discus the fate of any supreme court nominee. >> you remember last year, three democrats vote today confirm nile gorsuch and all three for reelection in presidents state that is president trump won. the president is expected to introduce nominee to the country tonight at 9:00 p.m. eastern and prime time address. >> we will be watching and much more. thank you so much, garrett. president trump getting ready to tale with the u.s. allies as he begins big european trip tomorrow. he first heads to brussels for annual nato summit where he

now the gop tax cuts for the rich have worsened our federal deficit in the gop budget resolution is step three in their three-step insidious plan to give to the rich and make everyday americans pay for it. rather than working on balance solutions to preserve crucial benefits to american families the gop budget resolution demands on acceptable cuts to things like affordable housing. sadly, over 70 million at risk renter households that are eligible for rental assistance get no health and working families cannot make enough under current wage laws before it even in rural and urban areas. everyone% of extremely low income and 32% are low income and a% of locum and 2.3% of middle income renter households spent more than half of their earnings on the shelter and utilities. the demand for affordable housing for exceeds the supply we are facing an intense crisis throughout many parts of the country and the supply has formed and not kept pace with rising housing costs and the going health gap. they face shortages in every single state and every major municipal area in the nation. more so it has

here to deviate it is robin biro and gop strategist jen kearns.want to pull up a little information about the platform right there at the top, abolish ice, medicare for all, assault weapons ban, free college for all, federal jobs guarantee, very expensive platform, very liberal platform. >> it is a socialist platform, she is openly card-carrying member of the democratic socialist party of america. what you see is interesting, the best thing to happen to the gop since the election of donald trump along with record stockmarkets and successes of the first year in office but hundreds of primary elections settled across the country and an interesting phenomenon in the democratic party, democrats competing with one another to see who can out liberal one another. they seem to think they are operating in a primary election season but nothing could be further from the truth. they are in a general election season and a difficult midterm election where they hope to regain control of the house and senate. if they continue down this left past toward the novemb

that is why gop leaders were at the white house trying to get the president to avoid a messy showdownut as we learned he reversed course on sunday. yesterday he made it very clear he is not afraid of the showdown. >> if we don't get border security after many years of talk within the united states, i would have no problem doing a shutdown. >> always leave room for negotiation but this is been many years, not just trump administration. it has been many years, even decades. >> working on passing a few appropriations, measures, none of which involved immigration measures, the president's comments through caution from members of his own party like senator lindsey graham worried about taking the blame. >> we get blamed, there is a way to deal with the population. i prefer a deal that would be a win-win. >> across the aisle senators like patrick leahy said the president is to blame. >> they could pass the money for a wall if they wanted and democrats are willing to work on this but it is hard to get the president to keep the same position for more than a day. >> no word on whether gop leade

fewer than one in four in the gop believe russian interference is, in fact, likely. >>> switching gearsrom russia, according to "the washington post" michael cohen may have already released his most significant tape of president trump, a sign cohen is going beyond words into action in his wish to make a deal with prosecutors. two sources familiar with with the tapes will tell the post that the government has seized more than 100 recordings that cohen made of his conversations with people discussing matters that could relate to trump and his businesses and with trump himself talking. they say trump's voice is on several of the recordings, but only in snippets. typically when he is returning a call from cohen or asking cohen on voicemail to call him back. the only recording in which trump an cohd cohen have a substantive conversation is the one davis released tuesday. the post says much of the recordings are of him and reporters discussing donald trump, like one the "wall street journal" is reporting on of a conversation about the stormy daniels payment with chris cuomo in which cohen say

he says, does gop attitude approach response? no. he is totally irrational when it comes to the legitimacy of his election. he sees russia as a threat to it. that being said, my constituents love him. >> i remember standing up voting against the war in iraq with 23 people. they were a couple of republicans. there were moments in history that you just need to step out there. this is one of those moments. and i have a message to my republican friends. get a spine. get courage. people will love you for it. maybe they love trump, too. but they don't want you to be some cowering person in the quoern the pillow over your head. wake up. this is a serious moment. and history will not look kindly on the people just turned away from this. >> talking about heroes, leadership. there are moments in life which call for political heroes. why? there are those who believe in our sovereignty and its future. where are they? >> well, i'm not sure that there are that many who still serve in the republican party this congress. this might be a couple who a

and it's not just gop. i felt the same way about the democrats when it came down to their big moment with the shutdown. i was saying to the democrats, this is your moment, this is your only leverage, what are you going to do with it? the supreme court might give you an opportunity and maybe other gop senators to say to mcconnell you're going to give us a vote on these sanctions. we're going to do something to protect ourselves from russia. or you're not getting my vote on this. you could do that. it takes away the walk versus talk problem that you guys are having. >> i expect that we will get support from senator mcconnell on this issue. remember, we passed the last sanctions 98-2. >> yes. >> he was a vote in favor of it. so i do think that we'll get it. what we're unlikely to get is a change in presidential behavior. i just don't know what the ask is. do you say to the president, hey, until you start not liking president putin we're going to not pass your supreme court justice? i mean, it's -- you can use

as we've already seen with these gop tax cuts. >> the financial website payscale has released its dataond quarter of 2018, and found that the average wage paid to u.s. workers is down for the first time since early 2015. accounting for inflation the wages of american workers have dropped 1.4% in the past year. that's despite one time bonuses paid by some businesses in the wage of the gop tax cuts. >> seth: that's right, wages have actually gone down since the tax cuts passed. trump said the tax cuts would raise wages. how do you explain that, mr. president? >> i said the word "would" instead of "wouldn't." [ laughter and applause ] >> seth: okay. totally correct. this is one of the keys. one of the keys to understanding what's happening right now, the gop establishment and donor class are fine with trump's attacks on democracy as long as they can enrich themselves. they're hostile to democracy because democracy is hostile to their agenda. and they think passing another tax cut bill, and pleasing their wealthy donors will protect trump politically, but if there's one thing we've learned

the 2010 mid-terms and the 2014 mid-terms didn't turn out so terrible for the gop. i think he's more scared of a shutdown than is actually merited. now, that having been said, i do think that for the most part the senate is going to ultimately follow what mcconnell wants to do, at least those who are not up for re-election or have primaries coming up. >> timing here is important. i think a shutdown right before the mid-terms which we haven't had in a while -- a small one last year which lasted about a weekend. is very different. but i'm with you in the sense of bring it to a head. have a referendum on what the fight's about that voters know. jess mcintosh and leon wolfe, thanks for joining us. coming up, with under 100 days to go, are republican mega donors really turning on president trump ahead of the mid-terms? color me skeptical. plus tonight's thing 1 thing 2 starts next. >>> thing 1 tonight. if you're wondering how people keep falling for the sacha baron cohen pranks on his new "who is america" show, it is because they were all taped before the first episode a
