kelly is trying to isolate him. his senior aides to the president are frustrated they cannot speak directly to mr. trump and must go through a filter. people have also warned the president that he faces a massive staff exodus among senior officials in part as a result of the working environment that kelly has created. >>> so, eli is correct in that kelly's job is secure, in part, because there are not a lot of people in line to take that job. but the folks -- and i'm sure maggie's reporting here, i'm sure she's hearing what i picked up today as well, which is that the kelly regime has been accompanied by discontent that's just beneath the surface. and when he stumbles as he was thought to have done when he attacked frederica wilson out in that now infamous press briefing he did during the seven-day debate about a gold star widow and on the hill yesterday when he described his boss as not well informed, it's not difficult to find people critical of his leadership style. >> the thing that the president i think is feel

kelly: okay. grant you that and we will -- obviously we will get more details as we follow the developments of this breaking story but now we are getting caught in the fog or the information that's coming from official perspective and so we the people, particularly the people living there in hawaii, their hands are tied. they don't know what's going on. they know that this has been a false drill, but again, getting to the point of what the congresswoman talked about, it's still makes her angry with the fact that this took place in the first place because of what's going on in the larger picture with the threat and tensions with north korea. >> kelly, it's multiple problems here. one is you want to have a full safe system in which the public can feel confident that if there is, indeed, a crisis, that they will be alerted and there's a system in place to help them. they don't want to be in a position in which you do have a false alarm like this, the sky is falling and everybody panics, that serves n

host: opinion of steve on twitter about general kelly. he says john kelly stopped the leaking.hat's the major reason he's there. what do you think? guest: i don't think that's true at all. i think the leaks continue unabated. frankly, you don't stop leaks by intimidating or threatening or being a tough general as it were. the way you stop leaks is by running a white house staff where there's respect there's discipline and when you tell the truth. i honestly think that that's how you prevent leaks. you never will prevent them completely. it's like taxes. there will always be leaks. that was certainly true with successful two term presidencies. i don't think kelly stopped the leaks. host: barbara in red bank, new jersey. democratic on the line. caller: good morning. i'm listening to this conversation and the first thing that occurs to me is that i think chiefs of staff should neither be seen nor heard. lot of the problems that we have have with chiefs of staff have been direct result of their being little bit too close to the forefront of politics. i been around for quite a while

kelly: we will be following it as you will to. >> thank you, kelly.state the hospitals are actually turning people away because they have too many flu patients already. live report just ahead. >> when i see, i knew it was the flu. >> fever, body pain, i still have chills. patrick woke up with back pain. but he has work to do. so he took aleve. if he'd taken tylenol, he'd be stopping for more pills right now. only aleve has the strength to stop tough pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. aleve. all day strong. my healthy routine helps me feel my best. so i add activia yogurt to my day. with its billions of live and active probiotics, activia may help support my digestive health, so i can take on my day. activia. now in probiotic dailies. >> iconic building in downtown nashville is now history. >> the 12-story lightweight tower tumbuntil 12 seconds and it was going down to make away one million diffuse. kelly: california health officials say that it's so intense that some helps are rerouteing patients because they just don't have the room. will ca

i will address what he said about kelly. think it's a challenge for anyone to work that closely with donald trump. i think quite frankly no matter who you are, even if you're a four-star general, everyone in the orbit of this death start on his donald trump is sucked in and to some extent tainted. i can't help but think that misfire by kelly when he went into the briefing room was a case of trying to please the boss. he really stepped out of line. that's what i would say to that. host: this is one of the headlines about trump family members. this is from back in late november. john kelly wanted jared kushner and i ivanka trump to leave the white house by the end of the year. we know about news reports with the first family. speak to us about chiefs of staff and family members and access. how is that gone over recent history western mark -- history? guest: it's an extraordinary challenge when family is involved. it's a delicate tightrope act. challenge, nancy reagan was famously known as the personnel director in the reagan w

i thought what jen kelly said -- john kelly said was pretty stark.e have run out of road. that is a pretty stunning thing for the white house chief of staff to say. we've heard similar sentiments in the past, talking about diplomacy. it is reassuring in my view for the white house that john kelly, not taken in by the shows from north korea and the joint female ice hockey team at the olympics. this is a show they are putting on and i think there are a lot of people who would like to believe they are sincere and that after three decades of lying and insincerity, it's reassuring to know they are not taken in by that. >> bret: obviously a lot of questions i wanted to ask. i asked about steve bannon and the fact that he wasn't answering questions. i was kind of surprised he said the white house was not involved in executive privilege. i wonder whether those words change what the meaning is, whether he answers questions are not. sarah sanders seem to say something different at the white house. >> absolutely. steve bannon went to talk to the house intellige

kelly: indeed.or more on this, let's bring in danny coast, a former deputy assistant director for the fbi. danny, good of you to join us today. let me get right to the point because you're a former fbi agent. when you hear all of this, what does it do to your moral and your pride for this agency that's been noted as being the foremost law enforcement agency in the country? >> well, i'm very proud of the fbi. i'm very proud of the agents. and i think one thing we need to remember here is that james comey did everything he could do to keep this case away in field agents. watergate was solved by field agents. i did iran contra. i was a field agent. and comey insisted anyone he was very successful, he kept that under his own control at fbi headquarters and he conducted what really was in fact a matter. he didn't do an investigation. he did a matter. he listened to loretta lynch and had he gone to the agents in the field, we would have a totally different response. i'm still very proud of the agency. i s

and, therefore, john kelly is wrong.do want to say when we speak about flake -- senator flake comparing trump to joseph stalin, i think we are wrong. because he didn't compare them. he just compared the language. which i think in a democracy already is a coupe but noneless the it's not a direct comparison. >> explain that. >> in a democracy it is a coupe because not only the president is using enemy of the people, not only semarly, the press organizations today we saw the results of the fake news award, which is remarkable in many ways, so it is a coup that the president brands those who disagree with them as the enemies and those who produce fake information -- that is something that nondemocracies do. so i think in this sense it's a coupe that in his language the president cites those well known dictators, and not just the 20th century dictators but all autocrats. >> that's another point jeff flake went on to make. let's listen to more of what he said, talking about president assad of syria and due tear tee of the phil

and secretary kelly did say. that sorry, chief of staff kelly did say that. >> what else stood out to you about a deal involving the 700,000 or 800,000 d.r.e.a.m.ers? >> what jumped out to me he is that they have no plan. no idea what a bipartisan deal looks like. we tried to talk to kelly about specifically some of the compromises we're willing to give and some on the senate side. but there was no direction no, indication that they are looking for a compromise. all that we really got to say was we needed to fix it. the problem is you have the leadership of the republican party as well as the trump administration not giving any direction what a compromise looks like. what is willing to be acceptable for them to sign. and now everyone is running around here. at the end of the day, the trump administration and the leadership of the republican caucus, as well as the senate side, really need to sit down and talk to each other. so that way there is someone we can negotiate. with right now they're steering this country

kelly. kelly: so we continue to follow along the developments of today, it's a pretty big story that's going on, another part of the story is women's marchs now underway across the nation similar to the major demonstrations this time last year, you'll recall, protesters now taking to the streets here in new york city as well as in the nation's capital and hundreds of other cities standing by with all of this caroline live in washington with the latest, caroline. >> hi, there kelly, the focused of last year's protest was going against the election of president trump and his inauguration. but this year's scene is power to the polls, trying to get more women to run fur office. thousands of signs and pink hats, they are running a bit late, democratic members of the house who are promising to vote president trump out of office in 2020, democratic senators still in town for shutdown. >> one year ago millions of women and the men and children who have their backs marched around the world to send th

"just six years in hollywood turned the name grace kelly into magic. she became a screen idol and a symbol of elegance and charm." grace kelly's acting career may have been brief but it was prolific. she starred in 11 films in six years. one of the first big breaks in hollywood came in 1951, when she was cast in mogambo with clark gable and ava gardner. kelly soon teamed up with the man who would become her friend and mentor, alfred hitchcock. she starred in three of his films - dial m for murder and to catch a thief in 1955. kelly, hitchcock said, was the epitome of the femme fatale: she had beauty, style and sexual elegance. "i guess i'm not the girl i thought i was." "there's nothing wrong with you lisa you've got this town in the palm of your hand." her rear window co-star jimmy stewart was equally smitten, saying she's too perfect, too talented, too beautiful, too sophisicated, too everything - but i want. in 1955, kelly won her first and only academy award for best actress in the country girl, beating out judy garland, who was also in the running

i'll get to kelly in a minute. it is weird that the president's not in washington when this is happening. maybe he likes that. it looks like a mess of congress. but the president sort of created more -- it was already a chaotic process and he added more to it. >> republicans might be glad he's not in washington today too. he's done enough for this morning. this happened a few -- recently with the surveillance bill where the president came out and tweeted a position that was opposed to the one that the white house stated before. this is a pattern now it seems where he's coming out and expressing a view that is totally blowing up the strategy the republicans had in mind and just ensuing more chaos into the mix. he was bad enough and you could see from your interview with senator rounds, both sides have an incentive to avoid a shut down but the president is not helping so maybe they are glad he's staying out of it for the afternoon any way. >> the democrat base, do they think shut down is a good thing and that sells -

maybe john kelly has a rough day at the office today. but i don't think it's bannoned just yet. >> john kelly has had rougher days than this. >> for him it matters. >> he can take this i'm sure. but it probably isn't comfortable. amy, this is just part of what the president is doing this morning, undercutting his chief of staff, but also undercutting house leadership. they're trying to get a stopgap spending measure through. as part of this deal, they wanted funding for the children's health insurance program, six years. now the president says no to that all of a sudden. he's saying no, we think, to the deal on the table. what's the thought? >> it's blowing everyone's minds on capitol hill. this is the second time this week he's done this. he did this on the senate side, this bipartisan immigration compromise. he came in and said no, they worked so hard to get this deal together and couldn't quite make it happen. now he's doing it again. i think a lot of lawmakers are frustrated. they're saying, okay, we're actually doing the dealmaking

>>kelly: good day to you. hopefully we can find a resolution very soon. >> we hope so, thank you very much. >> crowds are gathering across the country to take part in women's marches. rallies are happening in hundreds of cities like our nations capital, los angeles, chicago. demonstrators demand e quality and greater political power. we have fox team coverage. - - covering the rally in new york city. we begin with anita vogel from los angeles. >>reporter: we are in the thick of it in downtown los angeles. tens of thousands of people converge into the heart of the city. both men and women by the way. when you ask people why they are here, everyone has a different reason. promoting women's rights, civil rights, you name it really. and a rallying call to get more women to run for public office. there are also a lot of people, maybe about 250,000. that's what they were expecting. but not as many as last year when nearly 1 million people poured into the heart of downtown to march. many people were upset over the el

was a deliberate dig at kelly.ne senior white house official reportedly calling it a shot at mr. kelly. so is john kelly about to join the long list of white house officials who have departed? joining me is ashley parker, washington post white house reporter. we hear the president was furious when kelly made these comments about immigration last week. >> i told him there's been an evolutionary process this president has gone through as a campaign and pointed out to all of the members in the room that they all say things during the course of campaigns that may or may not be fully informed. >> may not be fully informed. you contributed to a story in today's "washington post" about the president and kelly's complicated relationship. what's going on there? >> so it is complicated. we heard the same thing as well. this is a relationship like all relationships with this president that sort of ebbs and flows and we found out that they say these men can swear at each other and get mad and then make up. and that does seem t

. >> and i'm kelly. the president is also doubling down on his criticism of a white house tell all book describing fire and fury as fiction. speaking to reporters today he disputed any accounts that question his fitness for office. >> i went to the best colleges, or college. i went to a -- i had a situation where i was an excellent student. came out and made billions of dollars. went to tell figure television n years was a tremendous success. ran for president one time and won. >> all right. rich hudson is live at the white house with more details. the president didn't mention it but he's of course an alum of wharton, one of the top business schools in america. reporter: he did mention both his professional life and his education and his intelligence and that was in response to really what is charges from michael wolfe's book in which he's saying those surrounding the president believe he's unfit for office. nearly everyone around the president believes he's unfit for office. this morning the president a

here's one of the things secretary kelly told us. i'm sorry, chief of staff kelly told us. he said, he said, that graham and durbin working together, that's not bipartisan. i need you to go and work with cotton and perdue and those people who don't believe in immigration. and i thought to myself, well, that's not going to lead to anywhere. that's like saying, luis, why don't you go and fight for reproductive rights and why don't you join republicans who believe that a woman doesn't have a right to abortion even if the case of rain and incest, and come back with a compromise? you know what you're going to get? absolutely nothing and stalemate. and so that's what he's talking about. so, i think it speaks to the naivete and how just uninformed chief of staff kelly is. if you really want to reach an agreement between people who believe in immigration and believe the system should be reformed and improved, and those who want to shutdown immigration forever in this country, you're never going to reach a solution. so, i would hope that chief of staff kelly would see that that was

♪share the spice of life. >> kelly: this is the fox report.you're just joining us. hawaii is breathing a sigh of relief after false alarm on a missile attack since residence into a panic. folks are waking up to the following push alert on their phones. ballistic missile threat inbound to hawaii. seek shelter. this is not a drill. they then tweeted this, hawaii, this is a false alarm. there is no incoming missile to hawaii. i've confirmed with officials, there's no incoming missile. lucas is reporting now from the pentagon. was the process in place for the state to cancel a false warning? >> kelly: the governor of hawaii just moments ago said that until today there was no plan to send out a correction notice to wrong message. >> we did not have a process in place to send a message. we did not have a message scripted saying this is a false alarm. we were not prepared for that. the fact that alert was issues that was incorrect. we have built that now. a mass text alert was sent about an incoming ballistic missile to everyone in hawaii. thirteen m

he tweeted this morning about it, really contradicting john kelly, almost point for point. he wrote that -- his views on the wall has never changed and he says it has not evolved from first day i conceived of it. trump then continued, it was never intended to be built in areas where there is natural protection, and he said once more that he believes mexico will pay for the wall, whether directly or indirectly. so, john kelly there, get something very public pushback on this, and also the president is facing this prospect, again, of a potential government shutdown. and he's been tweeting about that this morning and confusing some aides. i can tell you the white house was caught by surprise by his comments about the chip bill and about funding for the government, which ends tomorrow. we'll see whether there is any effort to clarify what exactly the president means when he -- with those comments this morning, earlier. john and poppy? >> abby fiphillip at the white house, thank you very much. >>> one thing we thought we knew was that the white house supported this, but then cam

he feels like kelly is undermining him more and more every day. that is significant because it shows the tensions between these two men and how they're starting to flare up between this very freewheeling president, very structured chief of staff and we're seeing the tension between the two of them come to the head and one source said the president dropping in on that briefing was a warning shot to kelly to show him that trump is still the boss here, he's still the one in charge, because he cannot stand when staffers get credit for his accomplishments or seem like they're managing him. that's the narrative that kelly is managing trump here. >> he also wanted -- one thing that stood out to me so much from your reporting is this feeling that your sources say the president has that kelly is only there to protect the country from the president. if that's what the president believes, how is this a sustainable relationship. >> exactly. it is not sustainable. it is a very stunning thing for a chief of staff to feel that sentiment toward the president. but

i think john kelly is way out of character for john kelly's conduct these last six months. to go to a group in a room full of liberal democrats about building awe wall knowing a group like that would leave that out. we had that discussion on your show. of course then he went to fox and said the president's views have evolved between the campaign and the office of the presidency. so that is just naturally something john kelly would know would enrage president trump. >> is president trump -- >> i believe he is doing it to push back because internally his pushback wasn't working. he has been really entitled to this. a great debate on immigration. and i think that it is a known fact that when people cannot convince president trump behind closed doors, they take their argument to television to try to convince him that way. >> but who took this story that there is a rift that the president is unhappy with john kelly to division, right? cnn is reporting in the last 24 hours on the front page of the "new york times" and the "washington post", someone wants to get the story out that

i mean, kelly, like trump, comes into this with very little political experience.his is sort of new to him as well, a lot of these negotiations. but he is someone -- look, the white house has known for a while that some of the blanket statements that mexico will pay for the entire wall, that seemed unrealistic. you could tell along the way they've hedged their bets on that. but it's interesting the dichotomy of kelly softening the stance in the meeting today compared to what we saw last week where trump seemed willing to take the deal or was giving signals to linde i grahsey grah accounting of it, take a much harder stance. certainly there is reporting around it that john kelly may have been part of that. >> but you're on the substance. correct me if i'm reading this wrong. i was just trying to figure out how donald trump is going to look at this. his chief of staff calls him uninformed, not fully informed. i mean, is donald trump watching, you know, did your chief of staff just call you dumb? that's my question for the white house. >> i'll certainly say this. ther

is kelly parsing words?we have had coming out both of the white house and reports about what actually happened and what was relayed during this committee meeting has been muddled. but sarah sanders' words most views. topic to be clear through the white house that steve bannon's lawyer is open question. bannon's lawyer represents two other people who are witnesses in this probe. one is reince priebus and one is don mcgahn. certain there is an appearance issue that a lot of people have raised a question with. >> do you think kelly does not know they are in contact with bannon. >> i think kelly knows and i suspect that he is parsing his language to make it steve bannon specific. >> john, this is reporting the bannon slip up. i'm wondering how significant you think that might be? >> well it could be considered one thing, a waiver of the privilege. you can't partially invoke executive privilege. more importantly he doesn't have a privilege to invoke at all. >> he doesn't? >> the president can't enforce him -- no

taking to twitter to contradict kelly. wall is the wall. it has never changed or evolved from the first day i conceived of it. parts will be of necessity see through. and it was never intended to be built where there's tough rivers or water. the wall will be paid for directly or indirectly or through longer term reimbur reimbursement by mexico which has a ridiculous $7 billion trade surplus with the u.s. >> wow. >> he continued. the $20 billion wall is peanuts compared to what mexico makes from the u.s. nafta is a bad joke. all of of it highlights this challenge for republican leaders right out in to try to figure out what exactly the president wants. mitch mcconnell saying we don't know exactly what the president wants so we can't offer him up any deal on that. >> apparently a challenge for his own chief of staff. kelly last night was on fox and he talked about the comment he made that the president wasn't fully informed about immigration. let me play that. >> as we talked about things where this president is and how much he wants to deal

look that over the weekend. >> kelly on the left. >> kelly on the right. >> look alike on left. i thought we have someone closer. >> quite often when we're out and about with lauren she looks like kelly roland. does he look like her with pink eyebrows. >> let's see. >> haha. >> did you give her a unibrow. >> i know i was like what is he doing to me. >> where why are they so lon long. >> she looks good in anything lauren. >> you're so sweet i don't see the kelly roland look alike thing. >> you don't think you look like her. >> i don't see it sgri really don't see it. >> try it without these. >> what if my real eyebrows came off. >> people seety don't see it. >> maybe we can do side by side and see. >> i did one once when she tweeted me and all those people said you look like kelly roland. >> she responded back and i forget exactly what she said. >> if kelly roland thinks you look like kelly roland accept it. >> when is the lakts time somebody said are you kelly roland. >> at the game saturday. we walk into a suite because we were walking into suites to try to stay warm. my friend

what is the future of john kelly?n't think he's on the chopping block or going to be replaced tomorrow but i do think this is how it starts. it's a snowball effect. he pushes them and pushes them until they leave. that's what he did with reince priebus, steve bannon, all these people. he keeps them around for some time before they're ultimately pushed out. i think he does realize that he needs john kelly in a sense that he has quieted the west wing some. but then he does these other things where he imposes these harsh restrictions on the president, which he doesn't like. it's not just who can come by the oval office, but his calls and all of that. the president starts spending more time in the residents than the west wing. he can be himself and in a personal sense feels restrict bid john kelly. >> kaitlan collins, thank you very much. >>> breaking developments in not just one but two sexual harassment stories today. hillary clinton stepping in to save the job of a campaign staffer accused of sexual harassment and also

general kelly plays a big role. and if people keep thinking of general kelly as oh, he's the adult who came in to calm the white house. and he's there to make sure his mood is stable and people don't rush into the oval office, no. general kelly is a big part of this kind of deportation effort. and he has been since he was part of department of homeland security. and it was him who called back to the white house on capitol hill and said we have to make sure this doesn't happen. it was him that kind of made sure that the hard liners were -- that all feeds that sense of feeling that we don't know what the president believes, but we know he's open to being manipulated. and the fact that even the congress people on capitol hill don't know exactly what he wants. >> listen, there's been this whole plus over what this was, but really it's the sentiment behind his statements. the words are awful, but what he's saying, the racist sentiment. >> it's really saying that where you are from dictates what you're -- >> it's not a cu

kelly evans.p 260 and lower in the last hour, and closing higher by 75 points, 26150 for the blue chips, quarter of 1% gain. s&p gaining about two points to 2824 today, and nasdaq up a tenth of 1%, 7411, and russell 2,000 couldn't join the party there, down half a percent on the bell, eight points down to 1574 no records here today. we're still well short of the levels after the couple day selloff we've seen, but a strong month overall with more in a moment buckle up, it's a busy hour for earnings we're breaking out the octobox look at this on facebook, julia, microsoft reports, and qualcomm, at&t, paypal, ebay, and mondelez i'm already exhausted. guys, thank you. see you in a minute as they come in joining me now is our cnbc contributor from shares etf and danny, welcome to you both i hope you're ready. it's going to be wild. >> it's been bumpy >> already has been. as we look at the month quickly, as we cap that off, topping the dow was boeing with a 20% gain in january, 5% after strong earnings

you, megyn kelly?> now, the stars are taking sides. >> she should have said, how much work have you had? >> and how life has changed for billy bush and matt lauer after getting fired. >> people tell you it's going to be better than ever. shut up. you don't know what you're talking about. >>> and inside all the grammy prep. will beyonce and jay zee perform together? and james corden breaks news about his third baby. >> and "vanity fair"'s photo shop fail. and why the plan to remove franco from the cover didn't work. and "e.t." is with luke bryan in mexico. and we're celebrating with the oscar nominees. >> so this is cool. ♪ >> this is "entertainment tonight." >> beyonce, gaga, bruno mars, pink, it is grammys weekend and we're in new york. but first, another big story out of new york, major morning show turmoil. >> lots of drama. jane fonda's war with megyn kelly got nastier, and then there was the tale of two disgraced "today" show hosts, matt lauer and billy bush. everything fell apart for billy when t

one source says he put kelly in a box because he has a growing sense that kelly is trying to undermineim. he doesn't respect him. he's putting on the front that he's protecting the american people from president trump himself. that's something that frustrates the president. he does not like that. then he got on a plane and went without his chief which is typically by his side we should note for this. the tension between these two men has grown. the president does not like to be undermined. we've seen this several other staffers. this isn't the first time we've seen this flare-up. it happened with the interview with john kelly on another network where he said the president's views had evolved on immigration and the wall. quickly the president got on twitter and says, no they haven't. >> chris cillizza, one of the most fascinating nuggets from kaitlan's reporting this morning, trump has a growing feeling that kelly is quietly trying to signal to people outside the white house that he's here to protect the country from him, him the president. that's what sources said. that's problematic f

he wasn't angry with kelly. kelly told him he was going to have reporters into his office. i heard that the president is caught off guard. he didn't learn from someone else. he learned from kelly. it was literally like being drawn uncontrollably to a source of oxygen. there was a bunch of reporters in the office. it reminded kelly, again, who was in charge. there is conflicting information about exactly how tired the -- his chief of staff, the president, is. several people i spoke with have known the president for a very long time, described it as unmistakable turning of the screw. >> i love the idea of a shelf life for people who work for the president. they are like the twinkie. it never gets old. is john can kelly the only thing now keeping the president under this new regime of discipline? and i put that in quotation works because everything is relative, maggie. but is he the only one keeping the phone calls at a minimum, the access at a minimum. without john kelly does the dam bre break. >> kelly has not been great about controlling the president. i don't know that tha

was kelly in the room? did you get some sense of that. >> reporter: he was not in the room for the interview. sarah sanders and reuters and the chief of staffs would not but it is interesting the way that played out today. the fact that the president felt a need to say that he likes his chief of staff is clearly an effort to tamp down any question or concern that he was upset with what he said last night. although, clearly the fact that he came out and used the words misinformed or not fully informed were taken as crist six by t -- criticism by the president and he doesn't take criticism very well. >> hope hicks in the room and testifying at congress. did that come up. >> reporter: no, it did not. we covered -- the interview wasn't with hope, but with the president. she's there as his communications director. but we talked about everything as i said earlier, from north korea, he did talk about russia in the context of north korea saying that russia was not being helpful in that and in fact was offsetting an

i think general kelly has done a really great job.ery special guy. >> there's no indication, shep, this afternoon that john kelly's job was ever in jeopardy. when the president is ticked off at you, he lets you know it. no question about that. >> shepard: john roberts at the white house. john, thanks very much. you heard him mention that the president gave that speech in western pennsylvania, coraopolis, pennsylvania where republicans are trying to hold on to a seat in what is usually an extremely red district. the president says that he's there to throw his support behind the rick candidate rick seconne. he's sent to face off against connor lamb, democrat. the republicans have held the seat for 16 years. analysts say this could be a close race come march. john roberts is at the white house. why so? >> i'll tell you about that in a second. it's interesting to see that the white house is playing down the idea that this being a campaign event for rick saccone. the president this morning didn't appear to get the message about chip when h

is kelly right?as he evolved and so should everybody else on your side. >> i quibble with the words. i think that when somebody who hasn't had any federal government experience gets into the federal government, there's no question you're taking your crash course. but let me ask you the question back, if he's a quote on quote evolved on the wall sdp the questions, why are democrats a opposing him? fence funding in previous appropriations bills. i don't see any democrats running around anyway except clinton talking to bankers saying they don't want the southern border security. this all. >> you think she knows more bankers than donald trump? >> she got paid more. >> she's made for money than donl trump has? reach back and get a >> so the point is why don't we just secure the border and let's just get it done? >> it doesn't make any sense. >> it does make sense. >> chris, i'm very confused right now by what trump said last week, by what john kelly said today. i know john kelly, and i know he understands

he called general kelly a national treasure. >> you could sense sessions did not want kelly to meet theame fate he did when the president put them in the barrel and made him the goat for his recusal. >> shannon: a lot of folks may end up in the doghouse tomorrow night at this time because it doesn't look like they have the votes were shut down. what you think? >> right now this is a truth of this experience. the minority party -- let's have a three day extension, to date extension. schumer and the democrats want as many negotiations as possible because the shorter term, the more leverage they have two get what they want which is amnesty for the people, the young adults brought to the united states as minors illegally. they want to have his money negotiating sessions as possible in hopes that they will get the republicans to break down and say fund the government and move on. it looks like what we are heading into is going to be life support. five days, three days, and they will try to make it through. that definitely works to the democrats advantage. >> shannon: will be watching. tomorr
