skinny margaritas are the worst thing on the planet. this should have been a morbidly obese repeal.should have had something with substance. let me finish, i think mccain might have been given some people cover for doing it. obamacare is a big bucket of manure. this was a spoon that started around a little bit. the change was so small what they were effecting. they still act like you are committing murder. and for those who don't know what side you're on, this is an education. if you touch an entitlement, you are worse than isis and hitler combined. they will call you a murderer and evil. they also planned it because they knew they were going to wi win. there was no plan for this because no one thought troubled win. they showed have planned this out earlier. >> lisa: this is an embarrassment for the republican party. they been begging the american people for chance. the democratic party has egg on their face as well. they should have focused on issues that held the middle class. and now americans are stuck and trapped with a health care system that doesn't work. an estimated 44% of

skinny margarita, disgusting. [laughter] when you're at the cheesecake factory do you order from the skinny delicious menu? hell no. that's like having one drink at an open bar. these are genes, jeans are great. i'm wearing them right now. you know what is not great? skinny jeans. afte[laughter] greg: that laugh is appropriate. a repeal shouldn't be skinny. it should be fast. really fat. so that you should never see a naked. it's great that the bill failed and now you can start over, you have new ideas, new blood. finally, the capper. reince priebus. just when i finally figured out to say his name, he's gone. the fact is he did his job, helped get president trump elected but maybe that's where his role ends. sure, a priest will marry you but you don't take him on your honeymoon. well, maybe you do but that's another story. i wish reince priebus well. he'll make a very difficult will affect fortune puzzle. could you guess that i would have no idea what that is. it's a medical condition. general john kelly is taking

they're going to need some skinny margaritas when this olympic thing is done in the next couple weeks with me. this is secretary of state rex tillerson responding to rumors that he's planning his exit. many the term coined the rexit? this is what he's said. >> are you planning to retain your position in the white house? >> i'm not going anywhere. >> how long will you stay? >> as long as the president lets me. >> what's your relationship with the president right now? >> it's good. >> nia, let me pick on you and just ask you about the whole rexit quandary that has confused some people. apparently the man wanted to take a vacation, and that sent a chill through the state department, now he's responding to rumors that maybe he's leaving? set us straight. >> i think that's right. you had a state department spokesman essentially say, oh, he's taking a few days off, which was kind of weird language. it came as john king was coining his phrase rented and saying people around rex tillerson was saying he was extremely disenchanted with his job, and that he may have thought rexit -- rex, sorry -

. >> like a skinny margarita. t and it would be if they were to do something like this. after this amount of time the republicans would have planned for this moment and everything shows they have not. >> they have planned for it. it is deeply divided. you got conservatives who don't think any rights of universal healthcare and the moderates worried about people using health insurance. this is a deep drift within the party. it is going to be extraordinary hard. it maybe super skinny with a little bit of extra. the substance is there is a party that's deeply divided. >> if you look at the concept that we drained the swamp, it looks like we drained the water. thank you very much. the new issue of the economist is out today. "venezuela in chaos," make sure you should take a look at this. that does it for us this morning. stephanie ruhle picks up the coverage. so good to be here, starting off with anthony scarramucci of a leak which was not a leak. a target on reince priebus. >> he's not a leaker. let him do that. and t

we might have a skinny marg read margarita by the time it's done. >> john manley back with us.ere talking about how tech is the standout. there's been a few old school economy standouts. boeing with the hit yesterday driving up the dow mcdonald's, caterpillar. this is not just the sexy f.a.n.g. stocks. jim cramer called it old dogs with new tricks. at&t in the group as well. what does that tell you? >> tells me the economy is getting better and that that will benefit earnings. the thing people got wrong the last couple of years, they felt the profitability was too high for earnings to go up even if the economy got better that's simply wrong. the economy getting better. >> you like tech what's the next top pick after that >> health care you have an aging population improving technology in healthcare and a representative democracy. i'm not surprised they're having such a hard time crafting a healthcare bill. we'll have to pay for it you cannot tell people you're too expensive to keep alive and expect hthem to vote for you >> how does that impact the stocks isn't there uncertainty

skinny repeal that is subject to be voted on. and that brings to mind notions of a reality star's margarita brand or latte at starbucks. this is the nation's health care, so it cheapens that a bit. are there the votes for the skinny repeal which gets rids of the individual employer mandate, device tax, and does this go anywhere to improving the country's health care? >> i think people are probably getting sick of this answer which is we don't know. the reason you keep hearing it is because in remarkable fashion we don't know. this is happening in realtime without a plan of how it will go which is extremely unusual for what we see for votes, especially in the senate where things are controlled and usually the outcome is preordained. this is getting still, you know, finally written with is being dotted and ts being crossed. we're still waiting for information as to what the impact will be. democrats have asked cbo for information. because we don't fully know what's going to be in it, it's difficult to say. and we don't know whether the votes are there. they don't look to be there. again, until the vote is skaft, there's -

there is a skinny bundle -- >> but now i thought actual repeal is more of the repeal and then the two years to replace. >> you've heard of a skin any g margarita. so this is similar to that the mandates go and the medical device tax goes. and that might go, right >> the fear is that this skinny repeal would have a little bit of a worse hangover for lawmakers. so excuse the pun there. so they are going to vote on the standalone repeal, that will happen around noon today but the expectation is that that won't pass because it does not have the support similar to -- >> right, but getting the vote for the skinny repeal. >> and then they have to work toward something that mimics both a replacement and repeal and skinny repeal would repeal the mandates but keep the taxes and regulations in place >> not the medical device? >> not the medical device tax. that is the only one that would be repealed. the rest would stay. that is seen as something that at least on the senate side could get enough support to pass but still face issues in the house. so we have the first step down, but there are about ten more steps to go. >> and some people saying that was
