you were with beta o'rourke.one with his soul searching trip and from watching him and his body language, do you think, yes, in a couple weeks he announces he's getting in. >> reporter: it certainly seems like it. one thing i noticed was his family walking through this group of people. a lot of people were surrounding him. his children looked a little bit afraid by all these people screaming and chanting. i think what is happening in the o'rourke household this morning, how they viewed all that last evening, hearing those chants, they are still having a discussion about this. yes, it looked like he was going to run but certainly has left open the possibility of doing something else. i asked one supporter in the crowd said she loves him but she said she hopes joe biden runs and beta o'rourke is his vice-presidential candidate. even people in el paso aren't completely convinced. >> david, jeff, abby, thank you very much. >>> on the front lines to drive isis out of syria, our crew was very close to the crossfire. we

beto o'rourke.o'rourke showed republicans and showed donald trump what they will have to worry about if beto o'rourke gets into this presidential campaign. it is a voice unlike any other that we have heard so far in this campaign. car insurance so you only pay for what you need. great news for anyone wh- uh uh - i'm the one who delivers the news around here. ♪ liberty mutual has just announced that they can customize your car insurance so that you only pay for what you need. this is phoebe buckley, on location. uh... thanks, phoebe. ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ oh no. your new boss seems cool, but she might not be sweatpants cool. not quite ready to face the day? that's why we're here with free hot breakfast. book at hampton.com for our price match guarantee. hampton by hilton. book at hampton.com for our they seem to be theee. very foundation of your typical bank. capital one is anything but typical. that's why we designed capital one cafes. you can get savi

that, of course, is beto o'rourke, former texas congressman. anticipation hanging in the air over his future. >> will he announce whether or not he is running for president? he has said will he decide by the end of february. we will hear from beto o'rourke shortly. do you have any sense on what he might discuss tonight? >> we know he will not announce that he is going to seek the democratic nomination tonight. i've talked to two friends of his who say he does not want to use the timing or the space here to announce his future plans. he wants to talk about his opposition to the border wall. he wants to talk about his differing view of immigration policy. that is what we expect him to say. he wants to also, he says, tell the story of el paso, one of the safest cities in america because of legal immigration. that is something that we are going to hear from him. but there are black flags here, john, whipping in the wind, saying beto for president 2020. he has not yet made that decision, we're told, but is inching ever closer to it, that will add on

i can tell you that o'rourke takes this issue personally. the call out of el paso was almost designed. it couldn't have been better designed by president trump to get the o'rourke camp's attention. this is someone who represented this city in the city council for a number of years, for three terms in the u.s. house. people here in el paso, not just o'rourke, but people here in el paso were offended by the way the president has talked about their city. so putting this rally together, you've seen some pushback on the idea that this is against the president. they're very careful to say that this is a rally tonight that would be for the city of el paso. the idea would be to try to define the city of el paso itself and not as what the president has tried to define it, as somehow a dangerous city that was somehow saved by the wall you see behind me. the idea that this is politically important for o'rourke really can't be understated. his candidacy in the senate for the texas senate race caught fire, in part, because he was able to draw and inspire

by the end of the month we will hear from beto o'rourke.n oprah's words, it sure sounds like he's running. >> joining me now, harry enton. >> back in december when his name was really in the rem of possible contenders he was up around 9% in our cnn poll. he's dropped off a little bit since then. but the amount of enthusiasm he saw during his 2018 senate bid certainly makes him a contender. >> elizabeth warren wrote down native american in 1986. does this issue of claiming that native american heritage damage her in the numbers? >> when she first announced she was forming an exploratory committee, i said she might have an electability prob

by picking the hometown of el paso native beto o'rourke, some argue the trump event actually elevated'rourke's standing in the 2020 race with split screen coverage like that, days before headlines were hinting that the rising star may have missed his window of opportunity to hop in to 2020, but now this headline from the dallas morning news editorial team asks the question, did dropped trump just launch beto's presidential campaign? well, he's yet to formally announce anything, but our own interpret garrett hague caught up with beto monday to find out where the potential can at that time stand. >> this is palpable and positive, it's peaceful, this is the best of the country. >> we are talking pascqoula fast but i hear people chanting about running. where are on you that decision? >> i ran t this morning about three miles. >> o'rourke told oprah last week and, yes, he's big enough to be interviewed by her, he will decide about the end of the h month. and while he mulls a that over, democrats may be growing impatient waiting for past candidates joed by expense bernie sanders to answer t

o'rourke had no choice.wants to run for president this was the time he had to demonstrate that he could be a counterbalance to trump. it is in what he said and also in the optics of what happened last night. there was a march to the place that was almost across the street from where trump was. the crowds are important, too. we know president trump is paying attention to who has the energy behind them, who has the crowds behind them. that matters to the president and also in an objective sense. democrats want to see that whoever is going up against trump has the ability to inspire people and to motivate them. in other words, beto o'rourke had to do something last night. he did what he set out to do. the question is does he take the next step and decide to run. you know, joe alluded to this. he didn't lose his last race. a lot of people will be asking the question, what are the real life qualifications for someone who lost their last major race and who was before this a congressman who was not very well known.

trump, mocking o'rourke, says flat out, no. >> beto o'rourke had a wonderful rally of about 15 people a young man who lost an election to ted cruz. then say thsaid, you know what? hey, you're supposed to win in order to run. >> here with me now chairman of the texas democratic party. thank you for taking the time this morning. >> good morning. thank you. >> beto o'rourke versus trump last night. we saw it on the wall issue. a key issue. whose message is resonating along the border? >> well, in texas former congressman o'rourke is the one that's resonating. i think people here, especially on the border, do not believe that a wall is necessary to provide any additional security. i live in the rio grande valley of texas. i live eight blocks from an international bridge. i have been there 19 years in the same place. never had a single problem where i live. this is a community that has very, very close ties to their neighbors in the south. people interact with each other every day. they visit relatives. they shop. they conduct business. walls aren't necessary to protect each other. we are

jonathan, we also heard from beto o'rourke last night.s what he said to oprah winfrey in an interview that's set to air february 16th. >> if i can play some role in helping the country to do that, by god i'm going to do it. >> by god, when are you going to know the answer? when are you knowing to know? have you given yourself a deadline? i'm serious about that. have you given yourself -- >> the serious answer is really soon. really soon. before the end of this month. >> beto o'rourke, jonathan, we've talked about him before on this program. he's a rock star in the party. he has demonstrated the capacity to raise a ton of money. but does he have the gravitas to rise to the top of this already crowded field? >> well, we will find out if, indeed, he gets into the race. according to my colleague, george, he's not from the right part of the country. but he does have the enthusiasm -- i think at least he still does -- the enthusiasm of a big chunk of the democratic party. i think oprah in that clip you showed sort of expressed the growing exasp

beto o'rourke.went on, word from congress, if you can believe it, is that there is a deal tonight, in principle at least, to avert the next shutdown deadline approaching at the end of the week. and did we get the clearest window yet int

what beto o'rourke demonstrated, he can rally crowds. being at the border it gives him a unique perspective on an issue he can attack donald trump on and the president is basically trying to rehash old things here by finish the wall versus build the wall. the president has to have a new message in 2020 because he's going to be facing a new candidate and i think look, i think o'rourke has established tonight that he can stand head-to-head with president trump and if he announces he'll run by the end of this month, democrats should be happy. >> jason johnson, thank you for joining us tonight. john, thank you. and most especially congressman david price, one of the confer on this committee. thank you for joining us and bringing us the news what's in this deal. a final question congressman, do you expect this deal to pass the house of representatives and the senate? >> yes, i do. it's of course not everything that anybody wanted. it is a compromise but we did hold out successfully for getting that wall number down just as low as it could pos

we are almost seeing an early preview of what a trump verse owes roa o'rourke race might look like.going out and making comments that are racially charged and making comments about the border and then o'rourke saying what you're saying is not true and i am from here. in terms of o'rourke and the timing of whether he's going to get in and his deliberations, you know, one way that you get a boost in support is to actually jump in the he has not done that officially and we have no idea if he is definitely going to do that. but for the, you know, past couple of weeks we've seen him on this pray, love journey traveling across the country and doing some public soul searching. but, what we don't know is whether the momentum that he had and he had a great deal of momentum even a couple of weekends agweeks ago, whether that's still there and whether he has that opportunity to capitalize on that. >> harry, what are the numbers? what story have they told about beto o'rourke in the last two months. >> they have shown that his polling numbers have dropped. texas is right on the border with mexic

o'rourke reportedly ruling out another senate run next year.e polls show he would be tied with john cornyn in a senate race. a lot of the top democrats right now thinking it would be better if beto ran for senate. >> kennedy: he has more senate momentum in texas and is really well known there. he's laid quite a foundation. he was able to read so much money. he could be a threat to john cornyn. i don't disagree. we talk to democrats and independents are less about beto o'rourke, there's no excitement. he's not an exciting person. think about what we saw in north korea, can you imagine beto o'rourke and kim jong un, what kind of conversation they would have. it would be so weird. he's so dorky and awkward. for some reason, he's infuriating to me. he's a beta male. his nickname is so appropriate. swap out a a40o. he has beto o'rourke. i think he wants to be vice president which is just god-awful. he's probably going to announce with joe that that's the ticket. biden-o'rourke his nickname is so appropriate. >> juan: let's go to biden. he's run twic

joeer: i would like to see and or work -- beto o'rourke. need some young people that stuff.ave no ideas and -- new ideas and stuff. , i think all the old guys in congress just step down. host: your choice for the democratic nominee would be beto o'rourke and vice president would be joe kennedy? caller: you have may correct. i think they would be a good fresh face with new ideas. nobody is going to try to talk about making the rich pay for college and stuff. nobody is never going to make the rich people pay their share. it. know how to get around host: any concern that beto o'rourke wasn't able to win his statewide race in texas? caller: no, because that was just texas. i think he has the tenacity to go on to be president. he is young. he will not be listening to these other trying to go against trump so hard. do like he did in texas. another of the democratic candidates who are seeking the minnesotaation is senator amy klobuchar. she was at a cnn town hall earlier this week.

when we come back, former congress person beto o'rourke. he held a rally last night just down the road from the president's and contrary to a tweet from trump's re-election manager, thousands and thousands of people turned out. here's the question. is beto running? before we go, northam's interview over the weekend on cbs was met with mixed reviews so stephen colbert decided to help him clear up a few things in an exclusive fake interview. >> forget the racist part. forget the part up here. just look at the pants. look at the pants down there. are these your pants? >> i have never had any pants like that. >> governor you're wearing those pants right now. >> what comes next in the strife torn state of virginia is anybody's guess but i think we can say with some certainty if history is any guide, the story is not going away any time soon. guy a promotion. you should be mad at forced camaraderie. and you should be mad at tech that makes things worse. but you're not mad, because you have e*trade, who's tech makes life easier by automatically ad

one thing that didn't happen was beto o'rourke did not announce he was running for president. time will tell whether or not he decides to join what's becoming a very crowded field of democrats hoping to challenge president trump in 2020. shannon. >> shannon: jeff paul on the scene in el paso. thanks, jeff. we want to get some reaction to my from what we are hearing from republican congressman mark meadows. he's from the house. in caucus, calling into night. congressman, thank you for joining us. what do you make of what we are hearing about this potential deal, 1.375 billion for 55 miles of border wall. potentially 70% drop in beds for i.c.e. what's your reaction? >> shannon, thank you. it's good to join you. candidly, what's been outlined tonight is not a serious attempt at securing our borders. when we look at what the president has promised, what members of congress have been advocating for for such a long time, it's really -- it falls very, very short of where we need to be. it does not even address the top priorities that border patrol agents and chiefs have outlined for

and beto o'rourke is nationally more popular than donald trump. i think the outcome is not a true strategic thought on the behalf of the trump candidacy, but more so a failure again of sort of a strategic mind set on behalf of this administration. >> we'll be watching both of these men this evening. todd curry, thank you so much. >>> and we've got break iing ne now. democratic leaders of the u.s. house of representatives have joined this growing list of democrats in condemning one of their own. freshman conscious woman omar of minnesota accusing, accused again of anti-semitism, for suggesting republicans support israel is fuel bid donations from a prominent pro israel group. the house leadership is now calling the congresswoman's comments quote deeply offensive. and this is one of the comments raising outrage on both sides. congresswoman omar tweeted all about the benjamins, baby. her response critical to kevin mccarthy. aims to put pressure on israel to change its actions toward palestinians and then in a later tweet, the congresswoman called out

it's where beto o'rourke is from.s not a super conservative place, so people are driving many, many hours to get here. we spoke to several people in line who said they drove upwards of nine hours in some cases to be here. there is definitely dedication from the people who are here. it's just a matter of what point they get here, ali. >> talk to me about beto o'rourke who had lots of rallies and -- >> he's going to have one tonight. >> he's going to have one there. is that meant to overshadow this, is that a separate deal? what's happening? >> i think it's really interesting you're seeing this from beto o'rourke as he's been out there talking about maybe running for president. i know other people in washington are wondering, if he doesn't run in 2020, will he challenge john cornyn. that's another race coming up. there are options for beto o'rourke. when the president comes to your hometown, what better way than to host a counter protest. they're going to be gathering at bowie high school. garrett haake is going to be t

jillian: donald trump mentioned o'rourke who lost his senate race to ted cruz. >> the young man who hasg for himself except a great first name, he challenged us. >> reporter: o'rourke will decide if he's running for president by the end of the month. rob: the governor of california pulling some national guard troops to the southern border, gavin newsom claims it is not necessary. >> the crisis on the border is a manufactured crisis. we are not interested in participating in political theater. this is pure politics, period. rob: he wanted to withdraw all national guard troops from the border but decided to keep some in place after consulting with his advisors. but congresswoman omar asked for an apology after accusing members of congress of being paid to support his room. she should be ashamed of herself. i don't think her apology was adequate. in her apology, the democrat says in part, quote, my intention is never to offend my constituents or jewish americans as a whole. we want to think through criticism. as i expect others to 4-year-old son does not so she is missing. in an exclusive

beto o'rourke and his family have arrived. they are expected to march along the international boundary and border fence that exists a here in el paso, beto o'rourke is about to take the stage about the same time the president will give his remarks in el paso tonight. >> thank you and more on that in a moment. >>> i want to go now to the member of the conference committee, a small bipartisan group of senators and congress people trying to find an agreement so there is not a shutdown in the next four days. democrat congressman price joins me. i appreciate your time. i understand the meeting just finished. there will be another meeting again at 8:00. obviously, if there is no agreement the government will shut down at the end of the week. it appeared to be at an impasse over this weekend. what do you think is going to happen? are we going to have a shutdown or not? >> reporter: well, i certainly hope not. and i had thought up until recently that the republicans were equally determined, but now you have the president's chief of st

. >>> possible democratic challenger beto o'rourke slamming the president's call for a border wall atis own march a few hundred yards away. >> oh, this is inspirig. this is the border standing up for itself. this is el paso selling our story. no one can tell it better than we can. a safe, strong community. that's who we are. >> later o'rourke told supporters el paso was a safe city not because of his border wall but because of it. he said treating each other with dignity and respect is the key to security. >> we stand for america and we stand against walls. there is no bargain in which we can sacrifice some of our humanity to gain a little more security. we know that we deserve and will lose both of them if we do. >> o'rourke said he will announce whether he's running for president by the end of february. >>> the governor of california is doing what he can to tweak border policy. he will withdrawal two-thirds of the national guard troops on the mexico border. he said he will not participate in the trump administration's absurd theatrics around border security. >> the whole thing we ha

for him to come to beto o'rourke's hometown, out draw him tonight, i think beto o'rourke's presidential campaign came to an end. he may run but it's over. when you can't carry her own town, when he turns out a crowd like this, it's over for beto o'rourke, and all the democrats are going to seize on this tomorrow morning and say look what beto did. he was an embarrassment. >> laura: chris hahn. >> i would say be careful what you wish for, lieutenant governor. beto o'rourke is an exciting candidate. i don't know if he's the democratic nominee but if he is, be careful. the question i have to ask is does the president does he think he was elected in 2008? he did not inherit a mess. obama inherited a mess. he inherited a roaring economy that was producing more energy than any country in the world when he took office. things were going well and they continue to go well and thank god. i give him some credit for that. he didn't inherit a mess. he inherited great things. >> laura: what was going on with wages? chris, what was going on with wages? i'll ask monica. monica, wages for middle-class w

president trump likes it because beto o'rourke will fight with him over it and beto o'rourke sees advantage after that, he said he'd be in support of taking down the border wall that separates el paso from juarez, the mexican border. so i think that's taking it in a different direction where he is saying no wall. and i think for trump and his supporters, wall has been a stand-in for border security which democrats have had a struggle arguing for border security but against the wall. and so i think beto takes that in a different direction. they both welcome that fight. >> trump aides have been saying all the democrats need to ask to tear down the existing wall. they want everyone on the record about that. the president sees border security, particularly the wall, as a viable contrast he can draw. some of his immigration messages like in the midterms about birthright citizens maybe went a little too far but if you talk to his people closely, they will say putting us against democrats on immigration is a contrast we'll take every day. whether that's true or not, voters will decide. but there's

of lives. >> beto o'rourke says, we know walls do not save lives. walls end lives. more than 4,000 children and women have died to come to this country to work jobs that no one will take and violence and death in their home countries. a pretty clear difference. which message wins? walls save lives or walls end lives? >> susan, you first? >> the thing that makes me so sad about this conversation is there are two messages for two parts of the country. i don't see this as a head to head clash of ideas as much as i see donald trump addressing his part of the country and o'rourke addressing a different audience entirely. that's part of why we are in a crisis that we are having. >> what do you think congressman? >> i think barriers are part of a border security solution. that's true. beto o'rourke is right, we need to deal with this problematic source at guatemala and honduras. that's what we need to do. i want to follow up something that susan says, the president thinking of reprogramming military funds to pay for the wall. in order for that to happen, h

in contrast to a smaller rally with beto o'rourke who may challenge the president until in 20.re was a contrast in a lot of ways but clearly this discussion over the border is not going to be resolved anytime soon by this dealer anything we see in the future. >> he needs a campaign issue 22020 to continue on with his stick and you saw tonight even lock her up came back. it is very much what was happening in 2016 campaign. the el paso fire department has weighed in about a out size for donald trump, 6500 person capacity, no doubt immigration is an issue he needs to rail on. i agree with david this is something for everyone and i would note democrats didn't get everything for daca recipients or those who are here illegally that we know of so far, something nancy pelosi want to clean will on but the president to go back and say that and say i didn't do a dreamer deal. i got money, i will continue to have the beds and this is a jumping off point for something more at the end of the year. shannon: we know the white house is looking at other potential legal avenues and ways to trigge

the president went hard after o'rourke. he went hard after the news media and the mueller case and made his case for the wall all over again, while just minutes before he emerged on stage word had arrived from congress that they appeared to have a deal in principle to stop this looming next shutdown. at one point president trump said, the last government shutdown was important to show people what is going on at the border. >> you know what? if we didn't do that shutdown, we would not have been able to show this country, these politicians and the world what is happening with the border. that was a very important thing we did. >> as we mention, it was impossible not to notice this, the new slogan looming over the trump event tonight, "finish the wall." it bears repeating, no new stretch of border wall has been built under president trump. there have only been repairs to existing barriers on the border. at one point president trump tried to correct the crowd. >> now, you really mean "finish that wall" because we built a lot of
