josh, you heard steve king there. is the base uneasy?rump's poll numbers hold up pretty well. what people are seeing in immigration is the stepup in raids by i.c.e. no, i don't think yet a lot of people are -- have the sense that donald trump is not delivering on immigration. steve king has a very extreme opinion on immigration, daca protects people that came to the united states when they were very young even without authorization. that program is quite popular. i think people expect in the end if they had an immigration deal, that's an area where probably that set of unauthorized immigrants would eventually be authorized to live in the united states. i don't think he's at danger on that issue yet. >> heidi, president trump said a lot of day one things that haven't happened yet on day 86. do you think there's issue with waning base support? >> i think on foreign policy he's been pretty much taken away from the populist economic platform he was hoping to push through. that made this calculation they'd come out first with the travel ban.

steve king is one of the most outspoken. to him the politics are different in iowa.t and continue to say that. for others, a much more complicated situation. that's why trump has not overturned this yet. >> very divisive even in the gop. >> maybe not in 2018, but certainly 2020. latinos are among the fastest growing voter bloc. >> david, julie, thank you very much. alan gomez thank you for coming on andi talking about your reporting. >>> vice president mike pence is facing questions about tax returns one day after tax day. what he is saying about the commander in chief's refusal to release those documents. where's frank? it's league night!

listen, congressman steve king said this "he's the lynch pen to your unified base."e'ver seen this before. when? >> i think any time their strangle hold of power and control is in jeopardy, you see the galvanizing of the ingrams or steve kings of the world who makes these announcements. it's not that reporters are deciding to write these kind of things. it's that akdss are being taken by public visible people who continue to put new opinions out here. these sources at the white house who call to tell them their side of the story. in a large way they made themselves the target by being so far out front. >> i'm sure the president did not like that. >> he is the man at the top. listen. it wasn't just the tweet i just read. laura ingram also not happy about it. and one of them said -- is this laura ingram? ann colter said it always helped our enemies and creates more refugees than he saw a picture on tv. candidate trump understood perpetual war didn't make america great again. hope that hasn't changed. so what do you think, mark? >> well, so donald trump runs oen a popul

that story prompted a tweet that was sent out by representative steve king of iowa.he first non-valedictorian dreamer deported. border patrol. this one is for you. beer frommug of representative steve king. the next to keith in los angeles. caller: hello. i think they should raise the minimum wage. regarding the undocumented person, about 98% of them are law-abiding people unless they got some negative background. why not just give them a fine and a road to citizenship? probably have invested in goods and services over $1 billion. it seems like a very simple situation. you are saying legislative changes are in order. caller: yeah. to bring about justice. riverside, california. independent line. to me trump is doing a great job and he's going by the laws of the land. you have to go by the laws of the land, people. i don't care what you are. democrat, republican. whatever. we have to go by the laws of the land and get along. and if you change the laws that's what's going on. thank you. host: as far as support for the agency -- he's gone. bill in oklahoma. caller: hello

what do you think about what congress member steve king says there and about the primary figures that he discussed. innercircle, how that hurts the president moving forward with the campaign promises. >> you know, any break with the base, thomas, is not going to happen within the first 100 day mark. the talk of the base getting weary is overblown. if you are a conservative, it has been a good first 100 days. neil gorsuch sworn in at the supreme court. abortion funding is being taken out of the budget. jeff sessions is going to the border and giving fiery speeches about border crossings are down. things are happening that conservatives are pleased about. now, there is a point at which people start to say is trump really be true to the core campaign conservative populist convictions? that is where the concern over steve bannon's questionable role going forward is and i think more than anythings else, policy speaks. it is not about personnel as policy. right now, conservatives have a lot to be happy about. despite the reversals this week. i really think are so esoteric that voters are no

before we get to that, iowa representative steve king came under fire this week after he tweeted hisupport of anti-muslim dutch candidate geert wilders, saying, quote, "wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. we can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies." a tweet many are calling overtly racist, which brings me to a segment we call "a couple things." ♪ [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: first thing -- you're a 67-year-old man. all the babies are someone else's babies.

here's congressman steve king in an interview last night. >> i am not at the level of being happy witho far what donald trump has done. he's done some good things and seems to have put a lot of good things in place but daca and dapa still exist. every day you don't address this, it gets harder and harder to see. his base is starting to get uneasy. they're not confident on the wall but the messages are clear out white house, we'll build a wall. >> joining me now is jay newton small contributor to "time" magazine and jesse burns, associate editor at the hill. jay, we'll start with you. is president trump losing the base? >> there's certainly things they're clearly worried about. i've spoken to some voters who say that they were concerned particularly about the billionaire cabinet. what they really enjoy is this disruption. they see him as shaking things up with the courts, shaking things up with congress, and every time he gets into these tussels, even if he loses, they still see him as disrupting washington so he's still got the base there. >> jesse, it seems president trump has changed

steve king tweeted this message to the president. steve bannon is the linchpin of your energized base. conservatives are an endangered species in your white house. what do you make of that? these people are not -- i wouldn't call them the base, but they're the fringe. i mean king and coulter. they don't want to be the base. they want to be fringe. >> polling shows that trump voters aren't disapproving of him. so you have to distinguish between the noisy people on social media and people who have large platforms and actual voters. i don't think we've seen any real evidence that the base has turned on donald trump. >> let me stick with you because i think it's attitude they like, the voters. his attitude is anti-establishment. it's we've been kicked around too much, taken advantage of. you know what, we're going to be tough americans now. and whatever way he can dramatize that, whatever way he can act that way, be that way, they're going to like whatever he decides to do. >> and he dropped the mother of all bombs today. >> well, he didn

but here's how iowa congressman steve king responded to news about montes.non-valedictorian dreamer deported. border patrol, this one's for you. that appears to be a beer. congressman king, we should be clear, is not an outlier. he may be in his tone, but substantively he is in many ways the voice of the republican party on immigration, the trump before trump. if that seems like it's ripped out of a right wing talk radio rant, that's no accident. how right wing took over the entirety of the american right next. >>> i would say -- yeah, i would say fox has been pretty good. your guys in the morning have been fantastic. you've been fair. i wouldn't say you're the greatest, you've been fair. i think fox has -- you have some great people. sean hannity is a great great person. you have some great people and people frankly don't treat me fairly but you've been fine. >> bill o'reilly was, i say past tense, one part of the right wing media that created political discourse by the time president obama was elected, they radicalized their base to a point where nothing t

trump's change in tone has not been popular with some of his supporters, like iowa representative steve king. he says he'll never be convinced that the daca program makes sense, because "illegal is illegal." >> if you reward people for breaking the law, you get more lawbreakers. >> reporter: he says daca recipients compete for jobs with u.s. citizens, and are an economic drain. according to a 2007 congressional budget office report, undocumented immigrants overall do access more services than they pay in taxes. but daca recipients, who came to the states as children, are mostly u.s.-educated and far more likely to move up the economic ladder. king disagrees on principle. >> it's an injustice to our founding fathers, to the people who have fought and bled and died for this freedom, that we simply give it away to people who have violated the law, when we have 5 million people outside america that are in line, that do respect our laws, that are waiting to come to america. >> reporter: california has the highest number of daca recipients. it's also among of the most welcoming. daca students here

you showed a tweet from congressman steve king where he basically called steve bann. trump's support structure among conservatives, which is absurd. trump made it through the primary just fine without steve bannon running the campaign. somebody who would push back against this narrative or at least clamp it down. if trump had hired more people acustomed to washington, how washington worked, you wouldn't have an outside personality taking all the credit for an agenda that rightfully hasn't gone anywhere anyway. steve bannon has filled a vacuum here. it's very abnormal for a staffer to publicly claim credit, like he's doing, for a vision. you're usually diminutive, you're serve the president. he has assumed the leadership mantle, at least from a philosophical standpoint and now we're seeing the backlash to it. trump saying i don't want this. trump's son-in-law saying this is bad for the president. >> i don't see a -- >> if bannon stay there is, he will stay there as a shadow of his former self. >> some of the blame, as sam was saying -- there's a lot to spread around he

come on in, please, republican steve king.yet again, sir, that the republican party is totally divided, even on the issue of the wall. i find that remarkable. >> well, stuart, i listened to this interview last night and as i listened to it, it just sounded like it was a rambling of double-speak. i mean, we don't want to put a wall on top of a 3,000 foot sheer cliff. i've traveled every mile of that border, i don't remember a 3,000 sheer foot cliff on that border. . stuart: but you know what i'm getting at. the republican party was not united on health care. there's probably some serious divisions on tax reform, and even the border wall, which i thought was bedrock republican policy right from the top down, you're not united on that either. >> stuart, you are right, and i recall a speech i made to our republican conference early in january of this year, and i said "we've got a strong consensus here, we're going to have to let go of the details and move. let's get these things done. let's not fight over mnuchin any longer. and i

king abdullah. we're also reacting to the news that chief strategist steve bannon has been removed from the national security council as one of the president's members. what does that move say about bannon and trump's relationship in the west wing? and president trump moments ago condemned the chemical attack in syria which the president says more than crossed a red line. >> women, small children and even beautiful little babies, their deaths was an affront to humani humanity. these heinous actions by the assad regime cannot be tolerated. >> this afternoon u.n. ambassador nikki hailey addressed the security council in new york and went much further, saying it is time to act, quote, against the barbaric assad regime. >> this security council thinks of itself as a defender of peace, security and human rights. we will not deserve that description if we do not rise to action today. >>> all of this capped off by north korea launching yet another test for donald trump just hours ahead of his first face-to-face meeting with china's president. nbc's kristin welker is at the white house and hans nichols join

king here. >> right, i don't know if congressman cummings ever met steve bannon.if he knows him personally, to go to the level of calling him a white supremist-like, i think is beyond the pail, can you say you don't like him, you don't like breitbart, that's fair, to go across the line and go into somebody's personal character when you don't know that for sure on a public stage like that is a line too far. >> let me bring some numbers in here for you, according to a new survey by the city of chicago, there is a huge partisan divide between republicans and democrats and so they asked whether arkin americans are worse off economically, because most just don't have the motivation or the will power to pull thems out of poverty, 55% of white republicans agreed, 26% of white democrats. why do republicans believe that in such high number? >> i can tell you there is a problem with racism on both sides of the divide. >> that there is too much of it. i wonder if i can, don, comment on the bannon part, because bashing bannon has become a sport in a town where ostracizeing, d

king of jordan. we are talking about steve bannon. we are talking about bill o'reilly. we are talking about susan rice. perhaps we should talk about before we hear their opening statements, what has syria done to jordan? what has the crisis done to impact jordan? talk about these two nations as allies, the traditional relationship. >> reporter: and this relationship with jordan is the most important relationship that we have in that region. jordan is overwhelmed. its refugee catches overflowing from this war that's been going on now for six years. their entire economy damaged by it. they are doing yomen's work, the king and queen. and instead of talking about the clear evidence, every expert saying that this was sarin gas, our own richard engel and his sources in the area. this would have been an opportunity, frankly, for president trump to take advantage of widespread criticism. and we see the president coming out now with the king. but there should have been -- i'm sorry, that's earlier video. that is the arrivals at the west wing door. this could have been an opportu

includes chief of staff reince priebus, chief strategist steve bannon, and ivanka trump's husband, senior adviser jared kushner. "cbs this morning's" gayle king asked ivanka trump about reports of discord within the team. >> is everyone getting along in the white house? there are reports that there are warring factions within the white house? is there any truth to that whatsoever? >> there's a lot of these palace intrigue stories. >> house of cards, game of thrones. >> i try the stay out of all that. i think it is healthy and good to have people who don't always agree on every single issue. you want that diversity of opinion at the table. and i do think we have a lot of different viewpoints at the table. but they're not at odds with one another. i think anyone you ask will say that that's a positive thing and that's a from ducktive thing and this lends itself to a better outcome. there are great teams at the white house, and a lot of the people doing so much work every single day are not the names that you're reading about. >> pelley: tomorrow the president will welcome chinese leader xi jinping to his florida estate. two days of talks will i
