THAT WAS A VERY GOOD IDEA AND I THINK THERE’S A NEW APPOINT KNEE
KNEE.
KNEE. >> JUST LIKE,S MIA, THERE’S NO
JUSTIFICATION FOR TELL US ABOUT
THAT.
THAT. >> THERE ARE CRITICS OF THIS ON
BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE.
EVEN RATHER WITH GET ON BOARD
WITH THIS BEING EDUCATION
SECRETARY BETSY DeVOS DEFENDED
THE PRESIDENT’S 2020 BUDGET,
PLANNED TO CUT ALL FUNDING TO
THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS WRITING.
FEDERAL OLYMPICS IS NOT N THERE
ARE DOZEN ARE WORTHY NO THAT
DOESN’T GET A DIME OF FFD GRANT
MONIES.
MONIES. BUT GIVEN OUR CURRENT REALITIES,
THE GP.
THE GP. PARTICULARLY ONE THATECEIVES
ROBUST SUPPORT FROM PRIVATE
SENATOR ROY BLUNT AND TOM
CONTROL IS SAID SPECIFIC PRATT.
>> SO YAMICHE, THIS IS GIVEN
JUST LIKE IN THE WALL STREET
GEORGE SAY TEG TOP HOW
UNNECESSARY IT WAS FOR DONALD
TRUMP TO PICK A FIGHT HE WAS
GOING TO LOSE.
HERE BETSY TO LOSS TO THAT HAS
BEEN A PA.
WE’VE ALL GROWN UP BEING MOVED
BY THE STORY OF SPECIALAND THEN
BETS SEE DeVOS GOT VERY ANGRY
AND SAID THE MEDIA WAS TWITTING
THE BUT THIS IS ANOTHER FIGHT
THAT DONALD TRUMP IS GOING TO
LOSE BECAUSE THE REPUBLICANS
THAT ARE GOING TO DECIDE WHETHER
IT GETS FUNDED OR NOT WILL FUND
IT.
IT. IT’S JUST, AGAIN, ANOTHER
SHORT-SIGHTED MOVE BY THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION.
ADMINISTRATION. >> WELL, WE OFTEN POINT OUT THAT
A PRESIDENT’S BUDGET NEVER
ACTUALLY GETS PASSED.
BUT IN THIS CASE IT’S SO CLEAR
WHAT THE PRIORITIES OF THIS
ADMINISTRATION ARE.
ADMINISTRATION ARE. THAT’S WHAT THESE BUDGET
DOCUMENTS USUALLY ARE, THEY LAY
OUT WHAT’S IMPORTANT TO THE
ADMINISTRATION.
ADMINISTRATION. IN THIS CASE, BETSY DeVOS
NOWHERE IN HER STATEMENT DID SHE
POINT OUT WHAT WAS WRONG BECAUSE
NOTHING WAS WRONG.
THE MEDIA POINTED OUT AND
REPORTERS SAID SHE’S TRYING TO
ZORRO OFF IF THE TO GIVE
MILLIONS TO THIS PROGRAM THAT
HELPS, THIS AND INSTEAD BETSY
DeVOS IS SAYING WHY JNCH AND IT
SAYS WE’RE SO CLOSE TO
REPUBLICANS ON CAPITOL HILL.
THIS IS AN EXACT WHERE YOU BR
YOU INSTEAD THEY DIDN’T DO THAT
OBVIOUSLY BECAUSE REPUBLICANSIN
THE ORCASE OF THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION REALLY NOT BE IN
FAPT WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THIS
ADMINISTRATION’S POLICIES AND
THIS BUDGET, IT SHOWS WHERE
TRUMP’S HEART IS, WHETHER IT’S
SEPARATING CHILDREN FROM THEIR
PARENTS AT THE BORDER OR RIPPING
HEALTH CARE AWAY FROM PEOPLE WHO
DESPERATELY NEED IT AND CAN’T
AFFORD IT AND CAN’T AFFORD,
THEREFORE, DIABETES MEDICATION,
WHICH COSTS SOME $1,500 A MONTH
TO NOW HARMING THE MOST WEEK AND
THE MOST DEFENSELESS, JUST
BECAUSE THEY DON’T FEEL LIKE IT.
IT SEEMS TO BACK UP A THEME IN
THIS PRESIDENCY AND I DON’T GET
IT EXCEPT IT MUST ALL BE ABOUT
JOHN McCAIN.
JOHN McCAIN. THAT’S THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES
SENSE HERE.
SENSE HERE. >> I DON’T KNOW.
IT’S ACTUALLY ABOUT A PRESIDENT
THAT YESTERDAY MIKE BARNICLE
TALKED ABOUT CHAUNCEY GARDNER.
I THINK CHAUNCEY GARDNER WAS
FAR, FAR WISER THAN DONALD TRUMP
EVER COULD BE.
SO WE KEEP LOOKING AT DONALD
TRUMP AS THIS POLITICAL MADMAN,
THIS MAD GENIUS.
THE FACT IS, AS WE P WEE SAID
THROUGHOUT THE 2016 CAMPAIGN AND
AFTER THE 2016 CAMPAIGN, MIKE,
THAT WAS MORE OF A REFERENDUM ON
HILLARY CLINTON AND 40 YEARS OF
CLINTON/BUSH RULE THAN IT WAS ON
DONALD TRUMP HE PLAYS BASICALLY
35, 40%.
35, 40%. HE’S ZEROING TO.
HE’S GOING AFTER PEOPLE’S HEALTH
CARE, HE’S SEPARATED MOTHERS AND
CHILDREN FROM EACH OTHER AT THE
BORDERS.
BORDERS. I KNOW EVANGELICALS THAT ARE
JUST AS CONCERNED ABOUT THIS.
I KNOW CATHOLICS -- WHO ARE JUST
AS CONCERNED ABOUT THIS.
AND AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE
ONE WORD IN A REALLY DOES TIE
ALL OF THESE ISSUES TO THE IS
HEARTLESS.
HEARTLESS. LIKE A TRUE PEROT PR HE JUST
MADE HIS BILLIONAIRE.
>> JOE, YOU’VE PRETTY MUCH SET
OUT AND ESTABLISHED ONE OF THE
CONSTANT THEMES OF THIS TRUMP
PRESIDENCY.
PRESIDENCY. HE HAS SEPARATED FAMILIES AT THE
BORDER.
BORDER. HE WANTS TO CUT OFF MEDICARE
FUNDING.
FUNDING. HE HAS DECLARED WAR ON THE POOR.
WE NOW ARE IN THE PROSPECTS OF
WORK REQUIREMENTS FOR MEDICAID
RECIPIENTS.
RECIPIENTS. NOW LET’S CUT THE FUNDING FOR
SPECIAL OLYMPICS.
SPECIAL OLYMPICS. SPECS OLYMPICS.
SPECS OLYMPICS. I HAVE SOMEBODY I’VE BEEN TO A
COUPLE OF SPECIAL OLYMPICS, ONE
IN LOS ANGELES AND ONE IN TEXAS
TEMPERATURE WHEN YOU GO AFTER
PROGRAM LIKE THIS, THE PEOPLE
INVOLVED IN PROGRAMS LIKE THIS,
THERE’S A LOT OF THAT IS
STAGGERING.
STAGGERING. AND THE ONLY THING THAT I CAN
CONCEIVE OF IS IS THAT THE
PRESIDENT THE UNITED STATES
GIVES VERY LOL THOUGHT TO THESE
PEOPLE, AS LONG AS HE IS IN THE
CENTER OF THE RING.
AND IT DOESN’T MATTER WHETHER
HE’S TAKING PUNCHES, WINNING OR
LOSING BECAUSE HE HAS CONVINCED
HIMSELF IN THE CENTER OF THAT
RING, HIS WHETHER HE WINS LOSES
HE DOESN’T KNOW BECAUSE HE IS SO
UNUSED TO ORDINARYTHINK ABOUT
IT, TOO, DONALD TRUMPAT THE SAME
TIME HE HAS GIVEN BOEING IMPACTS
AND HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS, CORPORATIONS JUST
ROLLING IN MONEY AFTER THE TAX
CUTS.
CUTS. I TALKED TO SOME CEOs.
JEFFREY EPSTEIN, HOW MUCH MONEY
DID JEFF ARE PRP.
FROM M N (I MEAN, HOW MUCH DID
MILLIONAIRE DONALD TRUMP MAKE
OFF OF THE TAX CUTS?
I MEAN THAT GUY IS WORTH AT
LEAST 30, $40 MILLION.
>> AND HIS KIDS?
>> HIS KIDS WORTH AT LEAST MORE
THAN $30 TO PSH PB I DON’T THINK
DONALD’S IN VET WHICH MOUCHL ATE
SAY.
SAY. >> MMMIES STILL MAKING A WILL
THE OF MONEY ON THOSE TAX CUTS
AND YET HE AND HIS
ADMINISTRATION AFTER GIVING AWAY
PUNS OF BALLS IN KAKS PUTS TO
DOESN’T HAVE A LITTLE MONEY TO
GIVE TO SPECIAL OLYMPICS?
I DON’T THINK THAT LOOKS VERY
GOOD ON DONALD TRUMP OR THE
REPUBLICANS PARTY GOING INTO
2020.
2020. >> AND AS WE TRY AND FIGURE OUT
WHAT CAUSES ALL OF THIS BECAUSE
I DON’T EVEN THINK SOME
REPUBLICANS CAN AGREE WITH THE
SPECIAL OLYMPIC CUTS, YOU JUST
HAVE TO WONDER AND WE’LL WAIT,
WE WON’T SURMISE, WHAT IS IN THE
MUELLER REPORT, WHICH WE HAVEN’T
SEEN YET.
SEEN YET. SO THERE HAS BEEN NO MUELLER
REPORT.
REPORT. WE’VE ONLY SEEN THE ATTORNEY
GENERAL’S VERSION OF IT IN A
SMALL, FOUR-PAGE CONTAINED
SUMMARY.
SUMMARY. >> BY THE WAY, THERE’S TALK OUT
THERE IT MIGHT BE 700 PAGES
LONG.
LONG. 800 PAGES LONG.
MASSIVE.
MASSIVE. >> I SPOKE WITH THE SPEAKER OF
THE HOUSE ON THE PHONE AND THEY
WILL BE WORKING HARD TO GET
EVERY PAGE OF THAT PUBLIC.
I THINK IT MIGHT HELP PAINT A
PICTURE OF EXACTLY WHAT DRIVES
THIS PRED P PRESIDENT HE MAKES
BONG THE WAY.
I KNOW WE GOT TO GO TO BREAK.
YOON I MEAN, WHAT’S HE AFRAID
OF?
OF? >> I DON’T KNOW.
WE’LL SEE IT.
WE STNT HAVEN’T SEEN THE MULL.
STILL AHEAD ON "MORNING JOE,"
WE’LL SPEAK LIVE WITH CANDIDATE
AMY KLOBUCHAR.
AMY KLOBUCHAR. AND ALSO AN UPDATE ON THE FIGHT
TO MAKE THE MUELLER REPORT
PUBLIC.
PUBLIC. AS I MENTIONED, I HAD A
