mr. miller, welcome to "meet the press ". >> let me start with the decision by the ninth circuit and the president himself saying to reporters that a new order may be drafted. is that what you and others are doing right now? drafting a new order since essentially the ninth circuit seemed to give you a road map of how to draw up something slightly more narrow that would accomplish your goal? >> we are considering all of our options right now, chuck. that includes you can continue the appeal on the ninth and seek an emergency stay in the supreme court and you can have a trial hearing on the merits at the district level or a hearing also at the ninth circuit and pursue additional executive actions. the bottom line is we are pursuing every single possible action to keep our country safe from terrorism. i want to be clear. we heard talk about how all of the branches of government are equal. that's the point. they are equal. there's no such thing as judicial supremacy. what the judges did is take power away that belongs squarely in the hands of the president of the united states. >> you say th

mr. miller say is a shell game. while there is a whole lot of discussion about the racist, in my view, immigration policies of the trump administration which are based on anti-muslim ideology, which are doing us enormous harm all over the world, something else is comigo on at the exact same moment is that president trump is backtracking on every economic promise that he made to the american people when he told workers and senior citizens he was not going to cut social security, medicare and medicaid. so what's going on right now? we're talking a whole lot of immigration, he is appointing wall street bankers, the same people he told us he would oppose to very high positions, gary cohn has gotten $250 million severance package from goldman sachs. he's now the main financial adviser. we're talking a whole lot about dividing the american people up. we're supposed to hate muslims and we're supposed to hate latinos. >> you think this is a shiny metal object to divide the public. >> you got it! you got it! meanwhile, he wa

mr. miller say is a shell gate. while -- while there's a lot of discussion about racist immigration policies of the trump administration based on anti-muslim ideology which is doing us enormous harm all over the world, something else is going on at the same time, and that president trump is backtracking on the american people when he said he would not cut social security, medicare, and medicaid. we're talking about immigration, he's apointing wall street bankers, the same people he said he would oppose to very high positions, getting 250 million dollar severance package from goldman sachs, now the main financial adviser. we're talking about dividing the american people up. we're supposed to hate muslims. we're supposed to hate latinos. we're supposed to hate blacks. >> it's a shiny object now to distract the public, divide the public -- >> you got it! meanwhile, he was going to clean the swamp. guess who is running the swamp now? the same exact wall street guys from goldman sachs who were there in the past. we're al

mr. miller, as well, mr.general, he said the decision by the judge was an ideological decision, not a decision based on law. >> look, the administration, the president, simply refused to recognize what everybody else can recognize. four federal judges have looked at the case. two appointed by republican presidents. two by democrats. all four have completely and utterly rejected the president's arguments in this case. we anticipate winning as we move forward. >> you anticipate winning. it appears the administration will come forward with a new executive order. we don't know if they'll revoke the prior one and bring a new one. if they come forward with one that excludes certain things, you would still fight? >> we'll fight if whatever they come up with violates the constitution and is unlawful, which the current executive order most certainly is. that's my job is to make sure that nerve the country, even the president, upholds the constitution. >> but isn't this a case where -- stephen miller cited the law. eig

mr. miller, as well, mr.y general, he said the decision by the judge was an ideological decision, not a decision based on law. >> look, the administration, the president, sichly refused to recognize what everybody else can. four federal judges have looked at the case. two appointed by republican two by democrats. all four are rejected the president's arguments. >> you anticipate winning. it appears the administration will come forward with a new executive order. if they come forward with one that excludes certain things, you would still fight? >> we'll fight if whatever they come up with violates the constitution and is unlawful, which the current executive order most certainly is. my job is to make hur that everybody in the country, even the president, upholds the constitution. >> isn't this a case. stephen miller cited the law. eight u.s. code. the suspension of entry. it says that when the president finds that the entry of any aliens to the united states would be detrimental to the interests of the united

mr. miller's comments have me very concerned, the tone of his comments have me concerned.e should be working together with our international partners. we already have extreme vetting for the refugee programs. we know self radicalization could be one of our greatest threats where people radicalized born here in america. we need to work together to keep americans safe. the rhetoric from mr. miller does not help bring our nation together. >> michael flynn, national security adviser, what do you believe is his future? >> clearly we are concerned about the statements that he misled the vice president elect during a period of time ability his conversations with the russians through the ambassador. this is part of an ongoing concern we have as to why russia interfered in our elections, what was the motives behind it, what contacts did they make with americans. this is very much of a concern. we need an independent investigation. i think general flynn, we need to know exactly what conversations he had with the russians during the transition period. >> on that note, tell us about t

mr. miller could deal with something like this again? >> you think this is going to happen again? >> who knew. i'm 88 years old. if i live after that, who knows. >> reporter: so i said to leonard, maybe you should think about putting up a guardrail out here. he said, no, pat. i'm thinking about putting up a bull's eye. just go out and bowl a few times. >> that's what we're thinking about, forming a bowling league now. i don't know he does that. >> he's hanging in there, right? >> glad he shared his story with us. >> the news 4 i team has reviewed capital police arrest reports and found there's been a spike in arrests for protesters on capitol hill, specifically those who disrupt formal proceedings among the arrests this month, those who disrupt his confirmation hearings for attorney general nominee sessions and tillerson. in january alone, u.s. capitol police arrested 55 people for disrupting congress. that's 5 times as many arrests for disrupting congress in all of last year. >>> a gold star father who captured the nation's attention during the democratic national convention join

mr. miller i want to start with this north korean test overnight .. in 2013 mr.m to come on tv and show strength against the repeated threats from north korea. now that she president, president trump made a statement last night supporting japan standing behind japan but department mention north korea yacht what is his, what in his statement is going to make them step back from their course of action. >> good to be with you, john, and thank you for having me here today so you saw the president following through on exactly what he said he would. do he went outlast might in front of the tv cameras and stood shoulder to shoulder with the prime minister of japan and sent a message to the whole world we stand with our allies, but we are going to send another signal very soon and that signal is when we begin a great rebuilding of the armed force office the united states. president trump campaigned on this, president trump has led the effort on this and president trump is going to go to congress and ask them to invest in owl military so once again we will have unquestion

mr. miller said a battle between those who want borders and those who don't. it's a disagreement as to whether or not this policy is constitutional and statuetorially allowed, and we ought to leave it at that. the idea that we would be able to take parts of the executive order, new visas into these -- to people redo it so there's more likely to sustain any -- overcome any court challenge. liz: yeah, maybe if they run it by the federal agencies involved instead of rushing it through, if they had done that, maybe it wouldn't -- it could have been more bulletproof at the outset. but you bring up whether or not -- i think you mentioned the word questioning the order. i mean, steven miller created another firestorm of controversy. the media saying that the administration should stop basically blasting away at the judicial branch. they're saying that the -- you know, trying to undercut the independent checks and balances. i think steven made something like the white house shouldn't be questioned on this. what did you make of that controversy? >> yeah. look, i think

mr. miller, thank you for joining us this morning. your first time on "this week." let's begin with the breaking news. you heard jon karl's report. do you agree this north korean missile test did not yet cross president trump's red line? >> i did not hear jonathan karl's report. and good to be here this morning. what you saw last night from the president of the united states is an important show of solidarity between the united states and japan. a powerful symbol to the world as the prime minister of japan and the president of america stood side by side and shoulder to shoulder and expressed the strength and enduring nature of the alliance. that is a message that will be lost on no one. >> did that test cross president trump's red line? >> george, the president's comments on this are clear. the message we're sending to the world right now is a message of strength and solidarity. we stand with japan and our allies in the region to address the north korean menace. and the important point is that we're inheriting a situation around the world that is as challenging as a

mr. miller suggested everything is going fine, perfect, not just that but an understatement to say that thisas been super productive, so five us your assessment of the way things now stand at the white house after this very busy several weeks. >> the thing, the under control, if what you want is control then that is true. we are talking about different realities here. the reality for a lot of americans who do support president trump is that things are going well. they do want him to take on illegal immigration and the borders and terrorisms and so forth and they see an establishment standing against him, he needs to battle against it is not enough to be polite, you have to go to war with them. but for the rest of washington, including the republicans like jeff flake like who came on earlier this is a real problem and a they don't see a white house that seems to have a ship heading in a clear direction. >> dickerson: susan we are used to getting spin on sunday mornings and so steven miller was in one sense doing what they are supposed to do, talk about how well everything is doing but what i

mr. miller last i don't want to compare it to other historical events but some of it without right outrageousalmost feral. so it shall be written and so it shall be done. it will not be questioned what this administration is doing. everything will be questioned by the legislative branch. hopefully by my republican colleagues. everything will be questioned. if in the end the republicans come about to actually take up this cause, that is good for america. and that is what we are driving towards. >> on that issue, initially it was the senate republican leadership that said yes, we will expand the committee investigation into michael flynn. to include that element of it. paul ryan said no. initially. met with muniz on wednesday and he came out of that meeting saying that he has had a change of heart and now he will expand this to include michael flynn. is that at least encouraging to democrats that they are moving in that direction and they want to expand it? and do you have faith in him to actually do that? to be awley: there seem bit of a dam breaking. and that was indicated with the expansion

mr. miller telling george, that voter fraud is thing. >> voter fraud is serious in this country. >> it'so evidence of voter fraud. voter fraud is a serious problem in this country. you have millions of people registered in two states and registered to vote. this is misleading. people do die but after they are dead they tonight contact the register voterers because they are dead. they are not voting, they are dead. the spoke about upholding the ban on trump's ban. the court should not correct the president. but it was blatant on face the nation. take a look. >> other opponents the media and the world will see as we begin to take actions that the power of the president to protect our country is substantial and not be questioned. >> by the courts, that's just not how this works. >> it's -- >> it's reviewable. >> is to be replaced with kellyanne conway? >> i think he speaking to directionally president. he is not trying to get a message across as much as he keeping his job with president trump. he is repeating, absolutely talking points. >> i think she got benched. >>> we'll be looking at pr

miller unprepared to answer for mr. trump about controversy ash national security adviser michael flynn who told mike pence he had not discussed sanctions with russia but monitored calls suggest he did. >> if you were caught misleading the vice president of the united states, would that be considered a fireable offense in the white house. >> it's not for me to answer hypotheticals. it would not be responsible. it's a sensitive matter. >> busy week for trump administration including his ongoing battle over immigration order. president trump also has continued to defend executive order tweeting the crackdown, quote, on criminals, illegal criminals is merely keeping the campaign promise. this comes after trump said he's considering issuing a revised travel ban. stephen miller, adviser you saw, senior adviser on immigration issues also denouncing the judges standing in the way of the travel ban. from what mr. miller said, our opponents, media and whole world will soon see as we begin to take further actions that the powers

mr. miller with little policy experience came as a hock to many of the staff members that knew him from sevenrs in the senate, and he now shaping the trump administration's core economic policy, with his policy on immigration. holly, nbc political analyst and peter. there's a certain iron like or steel like way that he talks. he said the president is the boss he will not and must be not questioned. >> it's like he competing with the aides of trump, going further than that in terms of making a threat against the courts, you know that the affirmation was that trump took the step afterward of praising him for it. for talking about him in very kind of autocratic terms that i will go ay where at any time that what trump says is correct. >> -- trump told. >> trump is not being sincere in this tweet. >> there's no come on, we're lead the country in the better place. it is you will do this. >> i got an e-mail who said this guy reminds me of communist leaders who could go on television to spru propaganda. >> hi >>, we all know, any reference with green cards because they have standing in the fifth ame

mr. miller has been walking around, we can see him here surveying the damage.ou can see the is significant damage. he was offered a place to stay overnight but he said he didn't feel right leaving that whole exposed. his son is going to help them put up some drywall and plywood this morning and he will be making a phone call to his insurance company. reporting live, fortunately no injuries. that's the good news. reporting live, john gonzalez. larry: that is good news, thank you for that. coming in, look at the aftermath of the massive mudslides in los angeles. more than 20 tons of earth toppling power lines and endangering nearby homes. the ground continued to fall into the night and several homes had to be evacuated. today the mudslide threat continues and they will continue to monitor has more rain is expected throughout the week. take a look at this, a police chase yesterday in california, reaching up to 90 miles per hour with a baby inside. it lasted only a few minutes and ended when the car crashed into the gate. the female driver got out of the car with a

mr. miller was sleeping on a couch nearby when it happened, he didn't seem too phased by it all. >> you weren't scared when this happened? >> scared about what? >> i'm standing here talking to you why should i get scared? >> i'm not into that stroke business. >> leonard miller says this is the fifth time a car has slammed into his house. he's got quite a story to tell. i'll have it for you coming up at 5:00. >> storm team four, the sun slowly starting to come out, for the most part it's been a rather gloomy start to february. what's in store for tonight. >>> we're a little above average as we talked about. temperaturewise, take a look at the highs, 49 d.c., 55 in richmond, still 61 down to the south at virginia beach, 37 in state college. the cold air is up to the north, the warm air to the south, we're right in the middle here, we continue to see these changes. right in the middle also, a little bit of a moisture feedback to the west, not much in our area, we're not going to see much at all. what we're going to be tracking, still the weekend forecast. we'll talk a little bit about that. a chil

mr. miller yesterday are not connected to reality. they did not happen. i think people should start talking about it. that did not happen. people were not bussed in here illegally to vote. that did not happen. >> tom, when you see these claims, though, not just coming out from anybody, coming out from the white house, from the president, from the president's senior policy adviser no less, what do you say? >> well, in new hampshire, we take our elections very seriously. it's really an awful lot about who we are, how we see ourselves, why we have the first in the nation primary. and i think anybody who is going to call into question the legitimacy of that process, wherever they sit but particularly if they're in a public office, has an obligation to do so with a basis of facts and not rumors and have the ability to prove it. this case, they didn't have it. it is unfortunate. and i think one shouldn't spread rumors that have no basis in fact, no matter where you sit. >> voters in new hampshire elected a republican governor. do people voting illegally, in you

mr. miller who's in charge of this process the new ban is basically the same so it should be blocked, too and amid accusations and high tension town halls are ginned up or driven by protesters. more contentious members all day with members of congress off for recess and back in their home district. tom cotton faced questions over his plans for legal immigration. >> of course you and your husband and your children are welcome here. my legislation wouldn't affect you at all. you say your husband first came on an h 1 b program, right? my legislation doesn't affect a single employment-based visa or green card into this country and once you have a green card it still gives preferences to spouses and to unmarried minor children, and i think that we need to reform a lot of the programs. like the h 1 b program. it sounds like your husband came here, got an education, is very high skilled. those are the kind of visas that we want to give out under the h 1 b program. >> despite night after night under controversial crowds, tom mcchlintock hasn't shied away from people. >> they filled the auditorium

mr. miller yesterday and he's the sweetest man. i hope someone can put something up to protect his home. outer loop before georgia avenue, crash on the right side. inner loop before u.s.-1, krat on the right side. cabled tractor-trailer on the inner loop near central avenue. bw parkway is now open northbound and southbound. no worries there. 66, 95, overall okay. but we have a problem far in 66 after the road best bridge. southbound gw parkway after 123, have a crash there in the right lane. you can see 270 looking okay in general here this morning. inbound 395 before the 14th street bridge, crash on the right side of the roadway. and then taking a look here at metro, still single crack between union station and center to grovner. >> good morning, melissa. a lot of fun with our groundhog day facts. northwestern pennsylvania is one of the cloudiest places in america at almost any type of the year, but especially here in the middle of winter. so four things to know about groundhog day, first time keeping track of it. 1887. and even t

mr. miller say all options are on the table. the president's already said a new executive order is forthcoming within days. is this an issue of trying to tackle all of it at once, continuing the fight in court, as well as releasing a new order? >> seems like that's what they're considering. you also see an element of sort of indecision here. i think they have trouble understanding where to go next because they're not really sure what the salvageable part of this order is, if they're going to lose part of it, if they're going to rewrite part of it, what's the part they want to save, what is the part they want to keep? you're not seeing a lot of clarity from them about that or about the strategy going forward. >> why is it the trump administration feels this is advantageous to show that it is willing to fight on this? >> i think, a, it's their nature, that's he the way trump himself is and steven miller are, combative and relentless in their rise in politics, i think it's their nature and i think they see this as delivering on a c

mr. miller is 88 years old, he was sleeping on a couch nearby when it happened. >> when in a car came in, i jumped up and said, damn, another car hit my house. >> this is the fifth time a car he moved here in 1971 he lives on a curve. cars have a way of coming down the hill, losing control and wham into the house. >> let me show you something, see the wooden pillars on this house here? mr. millar used to have pillars like that, then a few years ago, a car came by and bam, pickup sticks. he replaced the wooden pillars with brick pillars, but last night they didn't fare much better. rubble. >> your house has been hit now five times by a car? >> right. >> what do you make of that? >> well, what i'm going to do, pat, i'm going to go out and get me one of those signs like a target and i'm going to put it on my house. >> a big bull's eye? >> the driver of the car was injuries. you may wonder why he has such a good sense of humor about all this? well, he has a secret. i'll tell you about that coming up at 6:00. >> he sure does have a sense of humor. we look forward to hearing how he holds on to

mr. miller is 89 years old. he says he lives here with no fear whatsoever. he'll be staying in the house tonight. he's looking forward to a renovated tv room with fresh dry wall and carpet, again, for the county officials say since this incident happened they'll have a safe review of the area here. right now there are no plans in the pipeline for any sort of safety improvements like signage, although that could change based on the look they take of this incident. is reporting live, scott broom, wusa9. >> maybe that's why he hasn't complained. he gets to keep renovating over and over again. redecorating. >> that's kind of what he said. >>> police continue to investigate the accident. no charges at this point have been filed against that driver. >>> students and faculty took to the streets on the university of maryland today to protest president trump's travel ban. this comes after they learned that a student there was among those detained at dulles airport. pete muntean has more. you got an earful today. >> reporter: the march started here, went down to the a

mr. miller, welcome. good to have you here tonight. >> it is great to be here. thank you. >> martha: everybody is anticipating the next rollout of the next executive order, which is supposed to clarify some of the issues that were perhaps wrong with the first one and then, got caught up in the courts. how is it going to be different this time? >> nothing was wrong with the first executive order. however, there was a flawed judicial ruling that was erroneous. the president recently read to the statute from the immigration and nationality act, which states, he has the power as president to impose any restrictions he deems necessary when it is in the national interest. however, because of the exigency of the situation, and the need to protect our country, and to protect our citizens, the president is going to be issuing a new executive action based off of the judicial ruling, flawed though it may be, to protect our country and to give our people safe, and that is going to be coming very soon. >> martha: all right. we have an 18-year-old, he wants to know specifical

mr. miller if he's watching. >>> everyone is talking about ollie the bobcat's return. what's next for the national zoo's escape artist? >> and chuck is back with another look at the chilly temperatures coming our way. >>> and signing day was extra special at one local school. why these college announcements have some kids in tear >>> welcome back. it's 5:40. chuck, i'm happy to say i've used my gloves like twice the entire winter. >> really? it hasn't been that bad. i would agree. we've had only five days in the last month that were considered cooler than average. we had one snap in december and another right after new year's. it's a lot of things, but it's not cold this morning. it will be cloudy and seasonably chilly, but not cold at all. some spots south of town could get back into the low 50s today. have your warm coat ready to go. an insulated whipped breaker is about all you're going to need. the daily grade for today, a lot of clouds this morning, but turning breezy later on. those chances for rain drops and snowflakes on sunday are falling a bit. sheena has the

mr. miller was not injured.out to police whether any possible charges will be file and they say the investigation continues. reporting live, brianne carter, abc7 news. alison: all right. the irony there that one of the intersections, one of the streets is good luck road. larry: yeah. alison: after five times, i'm not so sure. that is tough for him. larry: good luck he hasn't been injured. alison: good point. all right. well weather wise, i guess we will find out if we have good luck tomorrow when phil decides what to do. doug: the great thing it doesn't depend what the weather is in pennsylvania it's what the guy in the top head says. it's always fun to find out. we are in for a cooling trend after a warm january. let's get in the weather story on wednesday, the first day of the brand new month. the last month of the meteorological winter. 50 degrees in the city at nationals park. through the day we have seen fair bit of cloudiness. generally the clearing trend that started this afternoon will continue tonight a

mr. miller must be new at this because by admitting that they're bringing out basically the same policy he makes it more kely judges will just block the new ban just like they blocked the old on challengers barely need the aclu when they have steven miller speaking off the cuff on live tv. and that whole fight is about whether the ban is blocked while it's ultimately tested in court. let's be clear. the supreme court could uphold the ban. but legal or not, the big news tonight is about this white house reaction which does suggest something more troubling for national security, an administration that appears at this hour uninterested in the facts even when gathered by their own national security experts at dhs. joining me now on this important story, indira lakshanan, washington columnist for the "boston globe," nicholas kristof pulitzer prize winner from "the new york times" and malcolm nance, an msnbc analyst. malcolm, what is, in your view, the context of these facts now being presented formally by the dhs to president trump? >> well, the context is very simple. you have intelligence pro

mr. miller went to thisis high school in santnta m monica whwhere he stu- he woke e up politicallyly andelopedis -- his hard-line positions. he asserted writing artiticles r the student newspaper a and othr newspapers and contributed to radio -- conservativeve radio shows. in this hihigh school,l, it turd out the latinos arere the most important minority. we decidided to take a look, a closer look into those years and to those who knew him. talk about what you found. univision obtained a video made by four of his high school classmates for a class at the time. the video contains fragments of a brief 92nd speech during his junior year at santa monica high school in the spring of 2002, including a controversial reference to the job of janitors. >> exactly. amy: let's play the clip. >> i'm stephen miller. some o of you mamay or mayay now i'm the only candidate of your who really stands out. i w will say and i'i'll do thins that no onone house in their rit mind would sayayor do. am i the only one who is sick and tired of beingng told to pik up my trash when we have plenty of janitors -- amy:

mr. miller doesn't understand that, he ought to read marbury versus madison. john adams made the same argument and he lost. and the supreme court under an appointee of john adams, john marshall, ruled that when it comes to understanding the constitution and interpreting it, the judiciary has to prevail because you have to have one ultimate decider. now, when nice was the attorney general, he took a very controversial position, and he said, no, the president has the right to interpret the constitution as well. and, of course, he's right. president does have a right, an obligation never to try to impose an unconstitutional ruling as does the legislature. but ultimately when there is a decision that has to be reached, it must be left to the judicial branch to the supreme court of the united states. very little dispute about that proposition. >> professor, you walked a careful line in your analysis thus far, explaining why you're skeptical of certain goals of president trump, why you think there is good law on the side of part of this order. you also cited some of

mr. miller's contention that -- you're already laughing. is that a fair assessment?here's no comparison between what we went through in 2009 and what trump folks are doing at this point. it's amateur hour right now. we were dealing with the greatest recession of our lifetime in 2009 as well as two wars. you did an impressive job before the commercial in list ago series of mistakes that have happened. i would add a couple others. the devos nomination, strained relations with mexico, australia, and what do these things have in common? they're all unforced errors. these are problems of their own making. they haven't even got on the the hard stuff yet. they haven't even started on repealing obamacare or tax reform. so it's any wonder how they're going to accomplish those things. >> or -- and this is why i wanted to talk -- i've known you for a while because i met you -- my wife worked with you when she worked in the administration in the white house and i know that you were there for a long time, you got to see the inside of how the white house operates. what happens whe

mr. miller in charge of the process the new ban is basically the same so it will be blocked, too. i call that terrible lawyering, something the doj is probably concerned about and reflects the other path, for whatever set of reasons we can analyze the way they rolled out the travel ban initially and how they continue to defend and talk about it is going to make it harder for them to defend in court. >> we'll talk to some of our foreign policy experts in a moment about this trip, the timing of this trip where you've got the secretary of state, the secretary of homeland security going down to mexico and this is in the midst of the reaction to this rollout. steve miller in the white house and some of the otherhite house officials counteracting the work, the diplomacy if you will of some of the abnet secretaries not only in this field but what we saw last week in europe as well. alan gomez that's got to be a problem for the homeland security secretary. >> i wouldn't want to be leading this delegation to mexico right now. i can tell you that. you have already the backdrop of the commen

mr. miller i'll co-director the anti police and poor magazine and in that's capacity drop all charges against shawn moore and bring the disciplinary measures against the police officers allison park been a journalist in 10 years working for media outlet and report to the black newspapers and muni radio on january 23rd shortly on 3:30 p.m. i witnessed the deputy place him in a life-threatening choke hold awhile i was pushed and shoved by other deputies and i was escorted out of the building and arrested in violation of any first amendment freedom of speech and freedom of press we were held into custody without be charged in handcuffs and 7 political prisoners on the first hour on the job permanently buildings the same thing it of life any people don't endorse calling for more - to this ended we demand the termination with cause of shooters of shawn moore and others mario woods and jessica wilson williams and angelica and pat and those involved in the darnell and the interpretation of joshua and further it was any honor to be arrested with those 6 brave souls the people have not only the right

mr. miller, the new ban is basically the same, so it should be blocked, too. >> why do they put him on tv. stephen miller. >> not ari. >> ari is great. seriously, it looks like he just got out of shop class in 11th grade and went down to the principal's office where they have a closed circuit tv set. >> how much lunch money did he give up? >> he's just bad. technically bad. i thought donald trump had central casting and people who were good on tv, people that communicate. this guy is just, everything is wrong. >> also, if you really want the executive order to pass a court, being petulant is not the way. finding a new way to push it through is the way to get it, not to say it's basically the same thing, take it or leave it. >> i was right the first time. i was right the first time. >> i'm a tiny dictator. >> do you think he has an audience of one? >> yes. >> it's himself. >> yeah. >> okay, so -- >> it's an audience of one. nobody else in the white house thinks that. >>> coming up on "morning joe," the president reverses an obama order. protests break out at the white house. we'll get a li
