mooch arrive Jeff session twists mama care appeal founders, we'll discuss all this and more on this week's. Discussion of the editor I'm rich Larry, I'm joint, as always by the right honourable Charles, see w cook the redoubtable in tunnel and the Effort- Essen, riots alarm, unfortunately, is away on assignment today, so Charlie we ve had dismissed. ordinary spectacle over the last week or so on. President literally in american history, cabinet officers have been frozen out before they left a twisting the wind before I ve been cashier. Enforced resigned before, obviously, but never four have they been belittled

and humiliated publicly in an ongoing campaign, by the man who appointed them and this Jeff sessions is being subjected to buy Donald Trump, it would be perverse if Trump were doing it too. Well, any one, but especially anyone working for him, especially Jeff's essence. Take your who believes in this agenda and the marrow of his bones has been Some of the points that have been put on the boar by this administration on immigration and law and order are there stability of Jeff sessions. and use an early and endorse her and kind of sense. I suggest that the party and come on in the waters fine and Tromp is treating on this way what to make of it. We ve talked before about the way in which Donald Trump talks about Republicans. He calls them the Republicans. Oh, he says they as if they have very little to do with himself.

That's also how he talks about his own government he's done this before. He complains about offices that work for him that serve at his pleasure, If you came down from Mars and read through the tweets, the dollar from has issued on the matter of Jeff session, You would assume that Jeff sessions was in the other party at that he was say. The Senate majority leader for the Democrats or you would assume that Donald Trump, where a presidential candidate running against a president who come to the end of his first term. This is owns attorney general and I must say I have never seen anything like this before in politics, firstly, because he criticizes Jeff sessions

for not doing this or that for holding this or that position when really the buck stops with Trump. If Donald Trump doesn't think the Jeff sessions is doing its job properly, then that is on. Donald Trump. Secondly, the way in which he does this. transcends political differences or strategic differences, and ranges into reality, television. He is route. I personally hope Jeff session stays on, because I think that he's competent. I disagree with them on a great deal. I personally wouldn't have voted to confirm him not my sort of republican, but he is a good man by all accounts he's an accomplished man and he does seem to have a good on his shoulders. If I were him, though, I would be seriously considering whether that were tenable, because for me We hear Donald Trump he's, not speaking to Jeff sessions. They aren't, on speaking terms,

And when he has spoken about, it is in the most disparaging and flippant distant way. As I say, you would not think this was a man who had helped out from get elected who had valid hated him in the eyes of a public which, at the time was still somewhat sceptical. You would think this was someone on the opposition benches, who had proven a thorn in your side. You would think that this was William PET. Talking about Charles James Fox, So you say: try: this is unprecedented in politics, its of unprecedented in any part of Right I mean you dont your matter, your wife, you dont, criticise her publicly. You know if you you wanna fire someone new you're, an authority on a fire. Someone at at at Turin place. Some you might talk,

the board about eighty. My talk to other colleagues about it might complain about this person, privately beaten, tweed about them being weak, hints to bid and incompetent and- and so this is where it in there just everything off the side door. Does this failing. A basic decency test here, the absolute minutes. It's designed a cowardly. He doesn't want to pull the trigger the one of those circumstances, whereas Charlie says: if you really want to do it man up and do it or more back You end- and this is all about trumps ego in some very twist and tortuous way. I think that a lot of this goes back to so trumps. Tweet earlier this week was about sessions not going after Hillary Clinton sufficiently and, of course, that's absolute nonsense, because tromp right after election day said the he wasn't going to push for that

negation, so Trump successions was simply following the direction of of the president under whom you working. So this is a facade best birth. We know the real reason, or at least Certainly, the real reason is a trumpet upset about the factors. Accused himself, but you have. You have to Follow trumps, bizarre logic to stand where the anger is coming from an end for tromp he's, these sessions refusal which he couldn't have known was going to happen, as has never doubly leading to the appointment of of Robert Mueller, and the begin the special council investigation. But of course, but that's nonsense- I mean, if you want to a much more direct cause, the facts, sequence for the special council investigation. You look at the firing call me the way that that was handled by the White House further

that was handled by Donald Trump himself, nor the deception, and and locking frankly that surrounded it so this is another example of where Donald Trump is really to blame, or at fault for a lot of what he's going through can take responsibility for that. So he's trying to put it off to some one else and as as we know, Donald Trump is an expert in creating scapegoats and that's what sessions has become for him. I am reminded us there is active stuck with me from this book written by two Navy seals called an extreme ownership. I think, is what is called and they talk about seal train at the beginning, and they have this harrowing. Trial, where they have to constantly being these these rafts and they have races- and if you finish first, you get to sit out one race,

Just like a really good deal, otherwise you just constantly going and exhausted you finish last, you have to do. You know also to push up and everything in addition to to a rowing. The raft makes it miserable. So this is bout, winning every single race and there's about this losing every single wrists- and the guy in the losing bowed, the captain losing boat is just obviously put upon, and I can't believe you stuck with these losers of his crew. On the boat. So the trainers has the idea we switch the captains of losing and the winning boats, and they said the captain's ensure enough. The losing boat wins and the winning, but it doesnt lose still like. It got very good guys on it, but it finishes second, because the problem was with the the losing, but wasn't the crew. It was the leader who is blaming the crew and- and this Charlie Charlie seems very apt to how trumps running administration

right and it also raises the question: who on earth now would go to work for him. You could see a case at the time of the nominations that, it was in the country's interests. If you didn't like Donald Trump or he might turn out to be good, all that his abrasive personality might have been accentuated on the campaign.

Now that he might calm down in office, but that hasn't happened and if he is berating Jeff sessions of old people in this manner. What on earth would the next in line the info? It's been said repeatedly that one of the problems that Trump has in staffing the White House is that he makes an offer to somebody, and then they go home and say to their wife. Was thinking of may be, accepting lessen the wives sank. Don't do this will ruin your career will ruin your reputation, and it strikes me that this is not good for the country because

if we start to see essentially a brain drain from the White House. The only people who will be left are the worst sort of parties and the worst sort of Trump Loyalists people who perhaps don't mind being paraded in public because they seek fame or because they have then scan ethics scandal because they don't believe anything. If, if I were a potential replacement for Jeff sessions, who should be set gave up a Senate safe job. I would just wonder what on earth would somebody who had been less loyal, who been less instrumental in getting from their at what on earth with they haven't store? That's a real problem, and not just theoretically, but but quite concrete, lay in the fact that there are lots and lots of jobs in the exact in France that are still unfilled.

more than half a year into this administration year. This is isn't this is not normal a lot of those jobs are also in the Department of Justice You know it's not just a case of of people theoretically, rotating into the administration. But there are a lot of things that are happening right now, because the Trump Administration has been largely. Competent and filling them in their making it harder and harder on themselves to do that way. Do you guys say as possible and in fact, maybe a little more than likely to trumpet just venting here, but it is also quite possible. But he has some scheme in mind where he gets rid of Jeff sessions whose refused and then thinks he can recess, appoint some smell, probably is going to happen to the Senate, doesn't technically recess anymore. For for this reason, just to stop such recesses point,

but he could get an acting attorney general in the normal course of things that would be wrought. Rosen Steen, which wouldn't service purpose cause. He should be matter. It rose esteem then at sessions for the appointment of more. If you accept trumps terms, but maybe he could get some other acting. Basically, I think a certain level of government official whose origin government you could make anyone acting attorney general, and then you could have this this purse, fire mauler or rain in more, but it just seems may vary convoluted, Charlie and maybe goes just trump not wanting to take responsibility cause he could constitutionally. He could fire more himself. If that is done, trumps master plan is a bad one. Not only will it blow up in his face and make him look extremely guilty.

but it won't work. He cannot if there is anything behind this and I'm still pretty skeptical, I'm also sceptical that Trump is stupid enough to try to execute a plan of this sort I believe there is something he's trying to hide. He cannot outrun it in this Mammy he cut off, everyone's. He come up in the way of those who are seeking information that will not work at it will just make him look more and more guilty. Perhaps if he had three weeks The president was clearly going to lose the election. He could out run this three and a half years. It's it's! Not it's not going to happen. If this is his master plan, which I doubt it its enemies

Third, one. If it's not his master plan. Well, that's good, because it probably means that he's not actively trying to cover up either a crime or something close to it, but it does mean that he is capricious and mean and incapable of providing the sort of leadership any president of any party needs to for the executive branch to function. Yet the only way this this makes sense on just at purely rational basis, and I still believe that trumpets briskly offended by this house investigation, cast a cloud around legitimacy of his election and that's what really bothers him drives him mad. But if you put the psychological part of aside just looking at it strictly, logically rationally? The only way this makes sense is, if he's covering up something, not just something like something

nor you know that wrote the Russians, you know he hacked the Elect election counting machines you hold with the Russians, and we too have to be something enormously toxic in you act of otherwise. You know if he has his worried about his business background, which I I'd. I don't doubt at some level. You know, though, that if they I'm on something you're, probably be of some sort of money laundering that someone else was really responsible for you know, Russian was the most active pert part of the scheme you can say this has nothing to do with the original investigation and look it's real estate. Everyone does. It happens, New York, all the time and Mahler you know, has all these killer Democrats working for him who are conflicted. I mean they're. All of layers of defense. He can use outside they just the merits of those kind of arguments, hypothetical, so just firing Mahler would be bringing much more pain, then he would, I think, potentially suffer even if he's

They have something in even more finds it yeah. I think that's right and others there is another concern here which is politically to step away from formula for a second, but just to go back to sessions mean ok. If you kick out Jeff sessions who, as rich point in opening the topic has been the single most, the single most loyal elected official to Trump, early endorsement, try sessions was crucial in crafting policy stay and so on the campaign Stephen Miller sessions. indications. Director became an integral part of the trunk campaign, Thou Senor Policy adviser in trumps speechwriter in these is, connections are long and deep. If you, if you

read this administration of sessions. I'm not I'm not convinced that there's not going to be a backlash from at least some of the people who have been flexibly loyal to Trump by the sessions was a key part of this whole operation and part of trumps. Part of trumps appeal was the sessions was giving him substance and and appealing to that sort of populist immigration hawk. section of of the electorate. It was interesting this week as soon as those those tweets rolled out, bright bar was attacking them, saying that your trunk was was foolish to go after sessions. That's a fairly successive, fairly significant development there is a sort of pleading peace by Matt Boil the editor of Bright Bart.

Saying you know, he's worried about a split on the right. If, if transport of fire sessions you that's clearly a sort of We know anything about my boy that he's these very worried about the prospect that were facing people against uranium and for it, but for him to come out and sort of have this. This insinuation. Please, you know, don't make us and make this decision in make our readers make. This decision is at least suggested to me. So there There really is an interesting question of of political success and survival below all of this as well. So I tend to think that trouble not pull the trigger, won't fire sessions and sessions isn't going to quit, but let's make that the exit question Charlie at the end of the year, Will Jeff session still be alive?

general, the ITA States, yes, or no, no, we'll be fired a bit. You just don't know, just think he's not gonna, be there. Why don't you country that I can see a situation in which trump at does the ultimate weak man's move and pushing him and pushing him and pushes him until he expected Lee has five him, but sessions has to be the one to resign yet I think you will be in part because at least the reply, surround the suggested everyone in trumps inner circle is against this, at least of all the other cabinet secretaries and the rest, their significant dissent from even loyalist that I just mentioned and I think Republicans in the Senate are going to be very unfriendly to another. Appointments are confirmation process

As someone like Alan of acts, use was reporting on a conversation trump had. You know he's constantly talking to people about who we should fire in and how and he asked one should show our sessions will happen. If I fired sessions and supposedly this interlocutor said well, if you get a fire that bullet for more, which kind of make sense. To me I mean, if he's ultimately to get rid of Mahler instead of firing sessions and causing a bunch of up upset and splitting his his base, why not directly go, after more, but in a certain sense we does far more. Perhaps sessions would resign I'm gonna say sessions is still change. General at the end of the year Charlie. The other White House, her moral story last week, is the arrival of Anthony Scare Muti, a friend of ours and deed. Are sure of Sean spice her and always felt sorry for

Sean aside. Not just the incredible mockery and being played by a woman on Saturday night lie, which is never a good look, but strictly never good. Look when employed by Donald Trump, but always is trying to be something he's not you know he's trying to be this. This ultra combative tromp, like. Press secretary and the look just didn't work for him where Anthony seems to have down, at least for the moment you know he's had here- had stumbled and I'll be many more pitfalls ahead, but he does has asked naturally competent natured, even if combat of

demeanor on tv, and he talks a little bit like from operates in similar circles. Ass did trump one of the problems I think for Sean spices. He was a long time politico. He was part of the establishment in many ways and suddenly he's being asked to translate for Trump now in some circumstances that could have been a match made in Heaven. If spice ahead, as you say, been less competitive in an karma, it would have been perhaps a great service. He was doing trump, though I don't think anyone really can represent trump effectively. I think the problem here is trump there. Ve been people have pointed out that Aramis. You have all sorts of non conservative views recently on gun control and abortion, death penalty and so forth, but so too chump. So in many ways they ve evolved together. I'm not going to pretend that is

in person. I do think that would be fair to enter this garment cheap. But if I were to concoct a Donald Trump Press secretary in a laboratory, he would look a little bit like this. So it seems to me, despite much of the the mockery, that his invited that he might be the right person for what is an extraordinarily difficult job. Yes, someone did in a split screen video. Did you see this of trumpets and scare movies gestures and their exact worrisome, Sangree, similar you're here

obviously much better suited to the position, and then Spacer was always. Thus Poyser was a terrible choice in part because he was he was not particularly impressive, refluent spokesmen when it was working for the currency. During the campaign you needed someone who is far more far more partisan, far more fluid and spices bad for the job skirmish at least so far is so far is proving himself better suited in part of the part of the drama. Of course. This is is that this is not just one person being substitute for another in a single position, but that scar mochi seems to be doing what trump doesn't see willing to do, or at least doing perhaps doing it for Trump, where trumpets quietly supporting it from

back witches serve point the knives out on the Wade's team and so slicer gone short haul, aren t hold over loyal to rights, gone the knives or out for right. And that is somewhat worrisome too. To me because part it was interesting about the administration, and perhaps it was inevitable. That was you have this split between what you know originally recent. We called it the rights Reince and split where you have the anti establish men's populist wing of the inner. Sir, and then you have the more establishment

wing that was working with Congress, your rights was supposed to be the person who had have a good, a good relationship with Paul Ryan and Mcconnell in will be able to be a good White House liaison. That seems to have actually happened. Given all the struggles that I haven't seen between the White House in and Congress, but once he's gone, which seems to me likely to be soon rather than later, who you have in the White House. That all interacting with Congress. What's that relationship going to look like after that, and is there any sort of balance to the the inner circle or to the certainly within the messaging team. I guess one could say Germany, vodka, but that's very different. I think the answer who will be the liaison with Congress at high levels, and pretty much what he does now, I'm not sure what his influence really

the inner councils of the administration, but he's he's well Eggs on the hill and he's quite present theory goes these centre republican lunches pre much premature every week. So I think that that's what Hence it is doing and will continue to be, but Charlie emission rights? Let's do an exit question here at the end of the year will reign Supreme, still be White House chief of staff is a two part question at first part. Second part will. Anthony scare Muti be has replaced. I think he is

going to go by the end of the year. That second question is a fascinating one. I don't think so now in yeah with Charlie the it strikes me as strange to pull skirmish he and his communications director and then move him into a very different job than again. This isn't a ministry somewhere perception is reality, so maybe the communication structures actually sort the best person for the actual LE actual practical background. I think rights will be gone by the end of the year. Almost certainly, I think how is a really lie? Possibility for chief of staff. I think that the answer into you raised about the weirdness, making the communications guy chief staff as on that Trump may have had this in mind from the beginning and He may have brought a menace communications director to

do they didn't dirty dirty final work of shipping rights and pushing him aside, and they become a chief staff himself and certain it would make sense for school. Movies purposes because fear and fry the camera all the time, even if you're adapt and even in the best of circumstances. This is not the best circumstances. Working foreign, we explained Donald from earlier Ding dumping and get wounded or we seem to have the Chilean Conway. It will eventually happened to it, scare me she, especially when some of the charm, whereas offer for the press, one in two thousand The cameras all the time, especially Israel good job of it and getting recognised for that trample, become jealous and get sick So I think it makes sense for four scare much you try to get a more behind the scenes. More powerful role. Sooner rather than later. But I got a pot ultimately on the second part

but I am not sure whether these scare mature, not who his is his replacement, very active kind of. Luckily shoving him a sigh which were seen happen at the moment may a wound, scare machine, eternal dynamic, so you go with with third Party like Dena POW, but I agree that rights will be out. So our labours Christmas just on the beach wait area, so further turmoil this time I Capitol Hill with Senate Republicans struggling, to pass Obamacare repeal and replace If there is a motion proceed that actually succeeded seems a big victory earlier in the week and then the repeal and place failed. Forty, three votes or something or forty, five get another pure only failed

talking about a skinny repeal corner quote what to make of it. I think there's a chance that something is going to go through for two reasons. Firstly, we ve seen figures such a senator Heller, saying in the last couple of days that he might be able to get on board with skinny repeal that is movement, Secondly, I think you see how momentum builds on how momentum is built. I thought that the outrage over the the movement to debate we saw in the Senate was overstated. It seems

likely certainly possible that John Mccain, who is criticized for voting for the motion to proceed, will subsequently back Nobel John Mccain has a particular view of the Senate. It's a view that distinguishes between proceeding and voting. I on a given piece of legislation That said, you do feel that they are moving inexorably towards perhaps a conference and with every step that the Roma consent it takes the easier it gets four reluctant or recalcitrant lawmakers to convince themselves that that just doing this, or just doing that, while I'm just voting for the motion to proceed, I'm just voting

on a bill that his embryonic and could be changed. I'm just voting to send this to conference with the house. And before you know it, you have a health care which may not look like. I would like to look and by the sounds of it, isn't going to look really like anyone in particular wants it to look but could nevertheless be sent to Donald Trump Desk. I remain semi, confident going to do something that seems like a reasonable assessment. The meet me ask, though skinny repeal amiss eating of misleading.

phrase misleading summation of what actually going on here and was sense or how much of a repeal is actually coming out of a skinny repeal YO repeal has been a bad label from is for this bill from the start, beginning in December, twenty fifteen, which is the so called report, only bill which didn't repeal it because it left the regulations in place which are the heart of the bill synonymous your time, repealing rolling back parts of it, so the Repeal is not a good label. Myths skinny is good, that your feel it is worth saying that that if you ended up with a bill that effectively reduced or bomber care to Medicaid, you would have done little to get rid of the vast majority of the change that we saw affected and into doesn't and because most of all

cat is Medicaid. That said, my theory has long been that, if Obama and Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid had looked at what was happening across the country in two thousand and nine ten had taken the hint from the people of Massachusetts when they sent Scott Brown to the Senate and had said okay with not going to do what we have been fighting to do but we are going to expand medicated. I think they would have lost many. Many fewer seats setting out have been a lot less disruption. I think they would have been a lot less anger and I think the Obama presidency would probably have been more successful so in that sense, It send another appeal, you're right and it doesn't get rid of most of the change, given that most of the changed has come from Medicaid, but what it does do is get rid of most of the contentious change, or at least some of the

tensions change, and that would be an achievement in and of its own right, even if I will be hideously disappointed so cutting you know, I think I think that makes the makes sense in and I do think Charles Assessment is more or less correct that we are seeing sort of incremental movement that the momentum is ratcheting in a certain direction. I feel like a fool making any sort of healthcare predictions because been proven wrong time and time again over the last couple months. But one thing that does strike me as the politically, if, if we're in favour in the Senate, and I were were in a purple seat. You know a quarry gardener type of of position or something like that. Not you know not a surly, a safe seat, my clear that sort of situation

This is a pretty pretty good way to thread the needle, or at least it's the it's, the least bad way to throw the needle that we seem thus far for both suiting the the problem, the over promising of the last seven years and the fact that Obama CARE is has been in place for a couple years. People have gotten used to end their worried once again about a significant jolt, the healthcare system so from a political standpoint it since it seems reasonable to me to go towards this to suit both of those constituencies and to address both of those concerns. Emily won't make either group entirely happy and also, I think it's important that if this is done correctly and it's a big, if

you could take the wind out of the sails of further healthcare meddling in the future, and that seems to me important if her, if your Mitch Mcconnell at this point that you're looking to two thousand twenty and saying, is the healthcare system going to be in such a state as the is the political map of the country going to be such that Democrats are going to be able to sweep in let's say they, when the presidency and majorities and both houses and go after single pair or something like that and taking the the wind out of the sails and now by reforming the system, maybe maybe helping people get to the place where they say okay, Democrats had their opportunity republics had their opportunity, let's not touch it again, for

but execration. I take it as a given a skinny european path Senate. The question is what, if anything, will result from a conference and post a past? Both houses subsequently that so Charlie will we see at the end of this process whenever the incomes full reply, on a place, Skinner repeal or nothing. I think the most likely option skinny repeal. Although that's going to be a broad term by the time it gets out of conference, yeah yeah, I agree clearly it somewhere between skinny repeal and nothing, I'm gonna, say skinny repeal just because I think the sheer embarrassment of doing nothing will be too much so least pass the thing minimal lowest common denominator, things if they agree on, and it won't necessarily be good policy of repeal the individual mandate. Without some sort of mechanisms replacing may actually

increase premiums beyond what's happening in Obamacare, This will be one of the worst chapters of legislating in and recent american history. Even if they get something from it.

I tunes teacher tune in or Google play and if you will like what you hear here, please please consider reviewing us on Itunes, so Oh next topic, the twitter sphere, especially this week in, was Thrown into turmoil by a serious Donald Trump tweets leading to announce a new kind of gone policy. on trends, gender troops and banning them? What did you make this. So we need to do some man, some dividing and address a couple, different things First is the merits of the policy which, are up for debate, but you can make

Strong arguments, I believe on either side and people people do Donald Trump does not seem particularly concerned with merits. At least he didn't. Much addressed them in a series of tweets and that's the second part of this, which was how the policy was announced and I think, pie policy is actually a strong word, because the joint Chiefs of staff have now said there will be no change to the status of transgender individuals. The military until there is an express a directive to them from the president. matters Secretary Madison seems was off guard by the tweets So what we have here is

an extraordinarily sensitive issue, which has been a hot potato over the last year and a half or so that you can debate on the substance but which Donald Trump decided to turn into a way to bring that the common. Nation back to him and away from probably the ongoing enter. Seen disputes in the White House that we ve spent the earlier part of this package talking about. So this just annex stored, narrowly dance way to go about this very sensitive to redress this very sensitive topic.

And in all likelihood- and I think this unfortunately applies to a number of a number of things- trumps Trumps- happy trigger Finger- has probably made the policy far more difficult to enact than it would have been otherwise chuck, while he didn't just announce it in terrible and counterproductive way, although he certainly did that, I cannot think of a way way to engage in this question. He also seems to have gone far far further than those who are pushing him ever wanted him to, and there was a peace and political yesterday. Suggested that this all had to do with a bill that contains both military funding and funding for his war, that he has a great deal about funds

his war and that he was worried that without some executive action that restricted the use of milk refunds for reassignment surgery. The bill would go down and therefore you came on this. I don't know that's correct or not I seen as something to it. If it is, one has to ask why he decided that a blanket ban was necessary, he doesn't seem to have explained that he claimed that this was an conclusion that was arrived at after coordination with his generals, but they insist that they haven't yet completed their review. He doesn't seem to have

Wondered at least thought about what will happen to those people in the military who already serve, who are transgender. Now I am not a military expert, and so I ve been trying to listen to other people on this question, so I can for my own view. I do think that some of the platitudes that we immediately heard both from left and right at work strawberry silly. If you want to serve your country and emerge, you should be able to was one of them, but that's obviously not true. This is not a vote on old or a best by the United States. Military has a very specific purpose and we do have to subordinate people's feelings

to a large extent, the notions of access inequality that we would usually cherish to those aims. The military exist to protect rights, to protect the quality and the paradoxes. In order to do that, it has to be highly selective whether this policy is necessary. Say I'm on shore, but it seems to me that not only was it announced badly as in explained, but that its possibly so broad and so ill thought out that whatever. Strict deadlines are necessary, are now going to be almost impossible to make a case for without running into a brick wall, and for that I think Donald Trump deserves our condemnation, so in exit question will

keeping ban of the sort enunciated by Donald Trump on Twitter end up as United States Paul. On this issue, yes or no. No! No, I don't think so.
