the republicans and, of course, starts with the president who waffles on every issue, starts with the republicans in the senate because the house has already passed the gun safety legislation, for the republicans in the senate to wake up to what 90% of the people in our country want, which is passage of gun safety legislation. so the pressure is building and i would hope that more republicans will wake up to the fact that they should be listening to 90% of what the american people want. >> are you optimistic that something could happen in the next few weeks or month or doing what i do, but at the same time i am continually disappointed at all the republicans who continue to give cover to this president and make excuses for him. i say it's time for all of that to stop and it's time to listen to what's good for the american people and that is to pass gun safety legislation. >> hawaii senator mazie her rone no, appreciate that. back to capitol hill where geoff bennett in the hallway with doug collins. take it away. >> right on. congressman collins, we heard you accuse democrats of sim mat tricks subterfuge, giving the impression t
