LOU: CONGRESS IS NEARINGED THE
FINISH LINE ON THE LARGEST TAX
CUT IN FOUR DECADE.
THE HOUSE PASSED THE BILL IN A
227-203 VOTE EARLIER IN THE DAY.
BUT THEN SOMETHING HAPPENED AND
THE PARLIAMENT AREA IN THE
SENATE DIDN'T LIKE IT.
THREE PROVISIONS IN THE BILL,
ONE THAT WOULD ALLOW PARENTS
WITH COLLEGE SAVINGS ACCOUNT FOR
JOINING US TONIGHT IS MATT
SCHLAPP, CHAIRMAN OF THE
ALL OF THIS HISTORY IS BEING
MADE OBJECT CAPITOL HILL, MATT,
LET'S TURN TO THIS
PARLIAMENTARIAN WHO HAS SUCH
AWESOME POWER OVER THE SENATE
AND THE DISPATCH OF LEGISLATION.
YOUR REACTION.
MATT: I THINK WE MIGHT NEED A
NEW PARLIAMENTARIAN, PERSONALLY.
SENATE, THE PARLIAMENTARIAN
LIKES TO GET THEIR FINGERPRINTS
ON IT.
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN BETTER TO
START IN THE SENATE.
IT LOOKS LIKE AMATEUR HOUR THAT
THEY HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE
HOUSE.
BUT IT'S BEEN AN INTERESTING
YEAR AND IT'S GOING TO END
WERE WITH ALL THAT WAS GOING ON
WITH GENERAL FLYNN, THE
TRANSITION TEAM, ALL OF THE
ASPERSIONS AGAINST THE TRUMP
CAMPAIGN BY THE LEFT, LET'S BE
STRAIGHT AHEAD FORWARD, BY THE
ESTABLISHMENT LEFT AS WELL AS
THE ESTABLISHMENT RIGHT, THE
DEEP STATE, THE INTELLIGENCE
COMMUNITY ASSAILING THIS
PRESIDENT TO THINK WHERE WE ARE
NOW AND WHAT HE HAS WITHSTOOD,
AND BY GOD, PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS
GIVEN AS GOOD AS HE HAS HAD TO
TAKE.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS LIKE IN
OUR COUNTRY'S FOUNDING.
ALL WE CAN DO IS READ.
IT COULDN'T HAVE BEEN AS NASTY
AGAINST ONE SINGULAR FIGURE THE
LAST TWO YEARS IT HAS BEEN
AGAINST DONALD TRUMP.
>> YOU LOOK AT ANDREW JACKSON.
THERE WAS A MAN WHO WAS UNDER
ASSAULT CONSTANTLY.
I OFTEN WONDER HOW IT WORKED OUT
FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE IF PRESIDENT
TRUMP HAD HAD THE RIGHT TO
SETTLE SOME OF THIS.
FIRST OF ALL, I WOULD MANAGE
MOST OF -- I DON'T THINK MOST OF
PEOPLE WOULD HAVE EVEN
ENTERTAINED THE PROSPECT.
>> WE HAVE MODERN FORMS OF IT
NOW, LOU.
BASICALLY AFRAID OF HIS OR HER
OWN SHADOW TO RUN AND HIDE AFTER
COMMITTING ACTS OF DISHONOR
AGAINST THE STATE.
I DON'T LIKE THE MODERN FORM TOO
WELL.
MATT: WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT THE
SWAMP, TO ME, I HAVE HAD A LOT
OF GOVERNMENT EXPERIENCE, I HAVE
BEEN IN THIS TOWN TOO LONG.
POLITICS WORKS.
IF THE BUREAUCRATS AND AGENCIES
WHO PUSH BACK MOSTLY ANONYMOUSLY
WITH THEIR FRIEND IN THE
LEFT-WING MEDIA.
IT'S YOU ARE BIGGEST PROBLEM IN
THE COUNTRY.
LOU: THE POPE COMING OUT AGAINST
FAKE NEWS.
IT'S THE FIRST TIME I HAVE SEEN
THE POPE LINE UP BEHIND
PRESIDENT TRUMP.
SAYING IT'S A SIN TO BE
REHASHING OLD STORIES, TO BE
ACTING AS THEY HAVE.
MATT: DEFINITELY.
I'M OBVIOUSLY A CATHOLIC.
I WOULD SAY STAND UP FOR MY
LIBERAL POPE.
LOU: YOU MUSTN'T DO THAT, MATT.
MATT: MY MOM IS WATCHING, LOU.
LIBERAL MEDIA.
OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR HE'S
WINNING THESE ARGUMENTS.
HE'S WINNING THE ARGUMENTS THAT
THE SPECIAL COUNSEL
INVESTIGATION IS OUT OF CONTROL.
HE'S RIGHT ABOUT THE LEFT-WING
EVEN THE POPE MUST BE LISTENING.
LOU: EVEN THE POPE SHOULD BE
LISTENING.
I WANT YOU TO GIVE YOUR MOTHER A
HUG FOR US AND CONVERT HER
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT NEEDS TO BE
DONE.
MATT: WHAT ABOUT THE TRUTH?
THEY SAY THIS METER AND THAT
METER SHOWS DONALD TRUMP IS LESS
THAN HONEST AND IT'S COMPLETELY
WRONG.
LOU: WHAT METER ARE YOU TALKING
THROUGHOUT AND THE LEFT ARE THE
LYING SOBs HERE, MATT.
MATT: DO WE TRUST THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE TO GET IT RIGHT IN THE
END?
THAT'S WHY I'M PROUD TO BE AN
AMERICAN.
LOU: I DON'T GET THE QUESTION.
MATT REQUIRE'S A RHETORICAL
AMERICANS.
LOU: WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
AMERICA BEING RECLAIMED FROM
