. >> republican congressman ryan costello joins me now. congressman costello from pennsylvania.was inside that meeting. always good to have you, congressman. take us inside. did you make as much progress as it would seem you did? >> i don't know that we did. i mean, look, people talk. there seem to be some emerging consensus. being one of the rogue ones, i would still like to see a couple different bills go to the floor and find out where the majority of congress is on this so we get a durable bipartisan solution not just to daca but on issues of border security and also the visa -- the visa program. so it is still slowly simmering as you aptly put it. >> what's the crux of the conflict here between you guys? >> i think, look, the most conservative in the conference are still feeling like if you take daca children and enable them to get lawful permanent residency over a period of years, that somehow that's a special pathway and somehow that's not acceptable to them. i don't accept that. i think the children are here. they've been here. they've grown up here. they strepeak the la

i'm joined by congressman ryan costello, republican everyone pennsylvania, veronica escobar democraticandidate for texas' 16th candidate. ryan, congressman, what did you hear about immigration news worthy tonight from the president. >> he's going to support the compromise bill which would solve the daca problem, would address border security and would address the family separation issue but i do want toke cothe comments that some of my colleagues on in the senate made and that is congress doesn't need to fix this. the administration can fix this itself. but his supporting the compromise bill that we're whipping right now would be a step toward addressing the family separation issue. >> just a point i'm interested in, is there any part of this comprehensive moderate republican proposal on immigration that deals with exploitation of cheap labor illegal immigrants coming in this country and being force ed because of their circumstance to work for nothing? is there anything in there about that in this bill? >> no, no. >> of course not. that's why it's a republican bill. let me go to veroni

. >> laura: here is an establishment republican, ryan costello from pennsylvania. trump won sylvania first time since gw won in '88. >> instances where you see republican pushback in the house and senate, i found myself very, very frustrated because we have the right, we have the left, but we do have a center. i think a lot of folks in the center do not know what to believe. you get your head chopped off if you're in the middle of trying to use common sense. >> laura: he picked up his marbles and went home. he's retiring. >> a little young to be retiring. >> a lot of these republicans in the house who aren't running for reelection, they thought trump was so atrocious that they ran out of town. >> laura: that is funny! we have to go to foreign policy. joel, you are a little more genuine. more generous. you have to give them more than that. >> we'll have another segment lra: let's leave that behind. you gave them a d+. why? >> i put the plus. i put a minus, i think the grade is incomplete. we got to see with north korea. i'm not a fan of this president. i'll give in

ryan costello will that for duncan. >> jeff duncan, another hardcharging conservative. >> quickly behindo and two. this is it, he got redistrict it out of his house seat and it would not be a viable candidacy for him. >> he reaches out and goes down to first base. that is foul. >> i think that is a pinch runner extraordinaire. it is not had an at-bat but has scored a run as a pinch runner. >> ryan costello played high school baseball. hewitt zero and two last year. he got a run on the bases and stole second base. he stole on a wild pitch. >> 400 percentage in the game. he just came to congress a couple of years ago. he has done well since he has been here. the republicans will miss him in retirement as they will several others who will not be a next year's team. >> it could be a new team next are. >> is going to drop in for a base hit. the down to second and the republicans have the first two batters on. >> was playing right field for the democrats? >> they were normally pretty good. >> that is my fellow uc santa barbara grad. there's a special election in california that god the practic

. >> i'm joined now by pennsylvania republican congressman ryan costello and our panel is back, beth,n, and zerlina. congressman, welcome. >> good to be with you. >> a lot of gop law makers in congress are pushing back on this, the president shouldn't pardon himself, as you just saw. but why are all the other mueller attacks being allowed to slide? why is spygate allowed to slide? why is memogate allowed to slide? >> number one, it's hardo keep with up with iall. right? and number two, i thinkt a lot of members of congress are focused on what they are doing legislatively and are trying to avoid having to weigh in on this on a daily basis. some such as myself have weighed in. i think it's b wel reported in terms of what congressman gouty had to say about this, which i sub describe to his position. the moment that you do that, you are going to geted a lot of repcans in the process. i think a lot of republicans probably look in the mirror and say what am i going to get myself in to if i just give my honest opinion on what the president tweeted about this morning? and then you have to rem

you're gone like senator bob corker or jeff flake or ngressman charlie dent or ryan costello or treye not in tune with the white ho lip syncing with sarah sanders you're dead in trump's eyes. none of this has anything to do with what we used to consider republican values. the gop stood for free trade, trump stands for trade wars. the grand old party called it self the party of physical discipline before the new guyde tax cut. it used to be alliance building against the enemy. now it's lunch and bromances with the enemy. one has to ask if it is still possible to ask, what will happen to all this heel clicking when trump's gone? will the party of lincoln and reagan be proud it nelt before donald trump's altar? whatever you want to say about mark sanford who trump's people knocked off in yesterday's primary, you feed to add this. at least when he embarrassed mself a few years , at least of te re the now beckoning to trump's allure can't even claim that. that's "hardball" for now. "all in with chris hayes" starts right now. >> tonight on "all in." >> i'll do anything to protect mr. trump

i think it was ryan costello, republican congressman from pennsylvania -- actually he's not running again. he got a tough break there in the redistricting and said, that's it. i'm not going again. he's been a little more outspoken since then maybe. his reaction to what you just said from donald trump today was he said, hey, the calculation is clear here. the president just wants to be blaming democrats rhetorically. is there a strategy that you see between now and november that's not about policy, not about legislation, about the rhetoric of the campaign? >> i think so. i think this president wants to say if you want stronger immigration laws, if you want to actually get something done, that you need to have more republicans. the white house official today talked to me and said that republicans don't have enough of a majority. there's this idea that everyone knows that republicans have control of both the presidency, the house, and the senate. but now they're saying we don't have enough republicans to get things through and we need to get rid of some more of these democrats. i think that'

let's bring in ryan costello of pennsylvania.arty is offering these bills, give us insight into the compromise .easure i understand it was scheduled to be voted on today but now is delayed until tomorrow. what at this point, it wld halp it otherwise not going to pass both. the more conservative will that we just voted on was closer than we had anticipated. the big difference is on the compromise bill is a six year daca solution with a green card. it is 25 billion for border security with that money being released provided that the doctor green cards are available. the intention was to get them on board that has not happened. this will likely be republicans having to carry the bill on our own. we do not have the votes right now. the president's we today was not helpful. there have been a lot of? 's going into today's meeting and what the public tomorrow. >> are you saying that president trumpan obstahese negotiatio? >> i think his tweaks -- tweets today were not helpful. yes. i'm wondering whether inanceats are willing to thwall t

ryan costello, saying that the eagles are the favored team.emocrat donald more craft said -- host: and then sheila jackson lee -- host: michael is next. michael, harrisburg -- think i push the wrong one. michael, harrisburg, opposing the president's actions. high. caller: yes, i do, but i was also looking for the fourth phone number option. the eagles also made a bad move. was known to be a situation coming out of the super bowl win, i'm sure that their office and their staff must have talked about this, discussed it, talk about it, known that the players were going to be coming up with something not to go. but i don't think anyone is surprised by the president and his antics, continuing to be divisive. i think this has a great trickle down, even to young people who are fans of the game. it's really a no-win situation for all. it should have been about the ball. and you know, just all of the arguments over the stance didn't come out. the season of the nfl ended without any kind of answer to this problem. moving forward this puts a real spin on
