a look at heidi heitkamp in north dakota, both of whom are in very strong trump states. there states. there might be the potential to reach across the line to say this is for the good of the american people. going back to six weeks ago, 71% of the american people want to cut for the middle class. this right now is a good package for the middle class. let's get it done. if being i would tell trump to mars you can a year to get sent and done. i find it ironic when mitch mcconnell says make policy, mr. mcconnell or go home because losers go home, winners make policy. either make policy or go home. >> that reads like a trump to eat. good for you. thank you both very much. dave, one that thinks mere mention of democratic senators who might or might not vote for this. i'm reminded of senator heidi heitkamp is that you can make attacks and without helping the rich. obviously thinking now this is whatever republicans finally come up with at this point. joe manchin and the west virginia. right now it's something has to be done there to get their votes or do republicans go through hoops

that will allow them to get the tax cuts through. jared and ivanka had last night, heidi heitkamp and joe manchin -- charles: president trump tweeting minutes ago, any increase in obamacare premiums is the fault of the democrats for giving us a product that never had a chance to work. the democrats are saying if you make these moves you own obamacare and all the bad things that go along with it. but i want to go back too am i optimistic -- i want to go back to -- charles: the american public. >> the american public first and then the republican party. they are working on the budget reconciliation bill. they have three hurdles to overcome. they have to deliver on middle class tax cuts, and senator mccain who is once again proving to be the fly in the ointment. charles: senator mccain said i long support the efforts to fix our tax system and simplify the tax codes and help our middle class. >> i talked to sources on capitol hill work on this budget reconciliation act. tammy: senator mccain says a lot of things and does things differently. he was rele ected to the senate because he s

some of the states that the president won like in north dakota? would heidi heitkamp be there, could congressman donnelly be there? >> secretary: i'm not going to comment on any one senator where they would be, but as you know we've invited democrat senators to come along on air force one with us and go to the tax speeches and they understand in these states how important this is for their economies and for their constituents. >> maria: so do you think you could be seeing a mix of republicans and a couple of democrats in terms of voting for the tax bill? >> secretary: i would hope that's the case as i said this is critical to the economy and i would hope we get many democrats voting with us. >> maria: let me turn to iran secretary mnuchin because of course we know you've been authorized you further sanctioned the revolutionary guard for its support of terrorism. here is what the prime minister benjamin netanyahu just told me about that. >> that is a very important step and i will say we like to see it implemented obviously because the revolutionary guards are the main instrument of i

we all care. stuart: heidi heitkamp getting heated. >> at community bank, driven by wrongful incentives that were provided to the employees, right? i have not heard you say, other than taking responsible for the incentives, i haven't heard you say mistakes were made at the highest level of wells fargo. we can say yes, we lost the ceo and there has been some publish mend and we are moving over but i do not hear a level of culture change that satisfies me today. and i think that is problematic for wells fargo going forward. i'm not familiar is not an answer we should be getting here. it should be yes, we are aware of that and fixing it. when we only hear i'm not familiar we wonder what else we are not familiar and i caution you when you say this is everything, that is what the last ceo told us and the insurance scandal. is up to your board to figure out what to do but i hope you take these comments and constructive because it is not helpful to say you are not familiar. >> i appreciate your comments. in my opening statement i was very clear that we take responsibility, for the m

say that that might be true for somebody like joe manchin in west virginia or heidi heitkamp in north dakota, but i think, by and large, there are -- these, in the states where trump won by huge measure, so now we're talking about indiana, we're talking about north dakota, we're talking about west virginia, yeah, there's definite pressure he can bring to bear. missouri becomes more of an open question. but the, i think can you get eight to get to 60 to make it lasting? no. can you pick you have a couple -- pick off a couple, three, that you might be able to offset if you're doing a 50-vote on online item. maybe those are spare votes in your hip pocket. stuart: you're killing me with the weeds here, chris, but i think gradually you're coming around to my point. [laughter] i know you are. don't argue with me on this. >> no matter what. absolutely. stuart: democrat congresswoman maxine waters going after president trump again. in a speech she says she wants to take out the president. i think that democrat leaders are actually getting kind of nervous about what their far-left wing is doin

dakota, heidi heitkamp, is he counting on those vote in the tax bill? >> in a vote last night in many ways the budget was proxy for the tax reform vote. we believe we will have the votes on the republican side but also that the plan will be better for the bipartisan, more encouraging for the american people, we want to earn their support and we hope they are with us, we don't believe corporate tax rate is something that is holding back the american economy. we can create more jobs particularly in midwest state. maria: do you find pushback on the corporate rate coming down 35 to 20%? >> absolutely. maria: no pushback? >> many democrats feel they don't want that but we the economy will get going. maria: we are the highest industrial in the world. >> in other countries continuing to lower further. what you are seeing is countries -- they realize, look what happened in ireland, many countries over there corporate tax rate, we need to bring companies back into our country and if we have a corporate tax rate that is competitive we know the american worker can compete. maria: are you expecti

, heidi heitkamp, manchin in west virginia, donnelly in indiana can you see any of them. >> tax reform no. there are small things democrats would get on board. we talked about this. repatriating tax and reducing business tax. neil: not individual rates. >> because the president -- neil: democrats lecturing anyone on taxes. >> the world is upside down. >> some things we can still count on. neil: have to be muscle as part of the success. >> i like budweiser. neil: let me ask you a little bit where this goes. they go back and forth on this. they might, republicans might come up with a fourth rate to satisfy democrats but should they? >> no. across the board tax cuts what worked every time, it has been tried, whether by democrat john f. kennedy or republican ronald reagan. the key, these people that focus on deficits and deficit hawks a lot of them are in bed with lobbyists inside the beltway. they don't want those deductions to end. that is one thing michael and i agree on. corporate welfare is just as bad as any kind of welfare. creates a sense of dependency. they are starting to

by president trump heidi kempf, if you vote against this tax package, aren't you going to see up stet from your constituents? >> well, you also have 24, i think, people who were republicans where hillary clinton won their seat, so both sides you've got the seats where the democrat or republican could go either way, the question now is, how do you approach this and which is why to your point, why i said, you can't just approach the things from a partisan approach. you have to be willing to work together and that means republicans inviting democrats on the table. you have people who want to engage and want to talk and cut taxes and a way to support him. >> do you think you're in the majority of the people that want to work together or in the minority? >> i'm on both sides, i'm in the minority. that's exactly the kind of attitude we are trying to overcome, but you have 48 of us now who get together literally every single week in washington and try to figure to get the yes instead of trying to beat each other up. that's what people want us to do. they want us to solve problems and accept

of the dems, they are counting on heidi heitkamp and also donnelly. we will see what happens. >> it goes back to the point, aiming, whether reformer cuts is a bipartisan issue, especially when you see each party come out with their plan. the reason being is that is so critical to the 2018 elections if the republicans don't get something done on the tax side, they are going to have a dismal showing next year and they have egg on their face because they are over three and major legislative agenda and they ran on that. the repeal and replace is a big pivotal part in they started with that. they can even get simple tax cuts done. they written for deep trouble. >> i think so, too. dems have to be careful going into 18 because their biggest talking point is this is the tax cut for the wealthy which simply is not true. american people are saying we get that. we want money back. we want our money in their paychecks. we want money for ourselves if democrats keep laying out the talking point is not going to work. >> the worst thing to happen for republicans passed a similar see the economy pi

think they'll get it donnelly, heidi heitkamp, do you think they look at the vote? >> a look at votes republicans only because the heady heights and so the democrats. and they make tax cuts have been. they only come on board once it's obvious republicans are going to pass it. it may not be pretty, but i think they will find the senate republicans to pass the tax. dagen: if you listen to the democrats to come on this program, they talk about the 25% rate entities which would benefit smaller businesses enormously. people are going to take advantage. >> there's going to be back. again throwing a pause to data and that is really what politicians in some way have been promising small business owners and entrepreneurs in this country for 40 some odd years. maria: which is why the right keeps on getting bullied because the left is coming up with things you expected anyway and then you've got president trump having to defend they will not cut taxes on the rich. >> certainly doing the background were up for the democrats in the state ts one. maria: will take a break every come back we'll talk
