>> TOMORROW WILL MARK ONE YEAR
SINCE I TOOK THE OATH OF OFFICE.
I WILL SAY OUR COUNTRY IS DOING
IT'S EVER BEEN.
PRESIDENCY.
IT'S NOT COMING WITHOUT DRAMA.
LIVE AT THE SENATE FLOOR WHERE
DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS ARE
REFUSING TO VOTE YES BUT THERE
MAY BE A LITTLE BIT OF MOVEMENT
ON THIS.
IT HOSTAGE UNTIL THEY GOT.
IT I SPOKE TO MICK MULVANEY
DIRECTOR OF THE MANAGEMENT OF
BUDGET AND ASKED WHAT HE HOPES
TO SEE ON THAT FLOOR TONIGHT.
>> I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE BILL
PASS THE SENATE WITH EVERY
SINGLE REPUBLICAN SUPPORTING IT.
WITHOUT BIPARTISAN SUPPORT IT
WILL NEVER PAS.
YOU NEED 60 VOTES TO PASS THE
SPEND BILL IN THE SENATE.
>> Martha: IN TERMS OF THE
ECONOMY.
THERE IS DISCUSSION THAT THIS
COULD GO ON AND ON.
IT FEELS LIKE BOTH SIDE ARE
USING THIS TO MAKE THE OTHER
SIDE LOOK BAD.
>> WE WANT THE GOVERNMENT TO BE
OPEN.
WE DON'T WANT TO SHUT THE
GOVERNMENT DOWN.
IF ANYBODY WANTS TO SHUT IT DOWN
IT'S THE DEMOCRATS.
IT'S A SMART MOVE IF THEY THINK
REPUBLICANS WILL GET BLAMED.
THE PRESIDENT HAS DONE A GOOD
JOB IN THE LAST 48 HOURS TO
PROVE HE IS WORKING HARD TO KEEP
THE GOVERNMENT OPEN.
IF IT'S SHUTDOWN, IT'S CALLED
THE SCHUMER SHUTDOWN.
THE ONLY PERSON WHO CAN SHUT IT
DOWN IS CHUCK SCHUMER.
HOW LONG CAN IT GO?
I DON'T THINK IT GOES VERY LONG.
THERE IS NO BENEFIT TO MAKE THE
MILTARY GOOD TO WORK.
PAID.
PEOPLE FIGHTING FIRES OUT WEST
STILL WORK.
YOU ASK THEM TO WORK WITH NO
PAY.
THAT'S NOT FAIR.
>> Martha: YOU DID SOMETHING
NEVER SEASON IN WASHINGTON.
YOU SAID YOUR DEPARTMENT HAS
ENOUGH MONEY AND YOU DON'T NEED
ANYMORE MONEY IN THE BUDGET.
YOU HAD A LOT OF SUCCESSES WITH
THE ECONOMY OVER THE COURSE OF
THE YEAR.
WHEN PEOPLE LOOK TO 2018, YOU
CAN CHIME IN ON THE SUCCESSES.
HOWEVER, WHAT ARE YOUR CONCERNS
IT WILL BE HARD TO KEEP THAT
GOING.
WITH APPLE MAKES ANNOUNCEMENTS
AND COMPANIES GIVES RAISES AND
BONUSES.
THE LONG-TERM STUFF WE SAID
WOULD HAPPEN UNDER THE TAX BILL
WITH MONEY BACK INTO THE
COUNTRY.
THOSE ARE TREMENDOUS SUCCESS
STORIES.
THE STOCK MARKET IS ANOTHER
SUCCESS STORY.
WE HAD A GREAT 2017.
HIGH CONCERN FOR 2018 HOW DO WE
KEEP IT GOING?
>> Martha: IT CAN'T GO ON WITH
THAT FOREVER.
NOW THE TAX CUTS ARE HERE.
>> WHAT I DON'T THINK IS BAKED
IN THE CAKE, NOT IN THE STOCK
MARKET NUMBERS OR THE GDP, THE
IMPACT OF THE BUSINESS DECISIONS
NOW THAT THE TAX LAW KICKED IN.
YOU SAW BUSINESSES GIVE RAISES,
BUILD A NEW FACTORY OR I WILL
MOVE TO THE UNITED STATES.
WE HAVE NOT TALKED ABOUT THE
CHANGE IN THE REG
CHANGE IN THE REGUL
CHANGE IN THE REGULE
CHANGE IN THE REGUL
CHANGE IN THE REGULE
CHANGE IN THE REGULEAT
CLIMATE.
>> Martha: THIS IS ENTHUSIASM
AMONG BUSINESS OWNERS IN THIS
COUNTRY.
>> WHAT IS NOT TO BE
ENTHUSEIASTIC ABOUT, ABOUT?
A LOT TO BE EXCITED ABOUT IF YOU
