shawna: if you've seen people in the me. who have actually felt the pain on this because that's what they vote on. if there are people in the mets who thought president trump was going to bring them something and they blame him for their farms not making as much money, then i think republicans will probably suffer. robert: with shall see. we'll see what happens, as president trump would say. thanks, everybody. we have to leave you a few minutes early tonight so you can support your loam pbs station. they truly support "washington week." we thank you and them. our conversation wil continue on line on the "washington week" extra, where we will talk about puerto rico's recovery and presidential pardonens. you can find tt later tonight at pbs.org/washington week. i'm robert costa. enjoy your weekend. >> funding for "washington week" is provided by -- >> their leadership is instinctive. they understand the challenges of today and research the technologies of tomorrow. some call them veterans. we call them parts of our team. >> ad
