along with and have common goals with russia. that's what's really important right now. >> dickerson: there's no ambiguity about this issue from your standpoint in terms of rush interfering with the elections? >> what i say i've seen information, i'm not going to comment on any of the confidential information i've seen. we are carrying out the sanctions. let me be clear. nobody thinks this has had any impact on the elections. so whatever occurred there was no impact. so i think the american public is ready to move on to more important issues, tax reform and foreign policy and national security. >> dickerson: i just think on national security front people think this is an enemy we should believe with them as such. the sebate bill came out this week, corporate tax breaks are very important to the president, don't phase in until 2019 is that a problem? >> the good news is, both the house and senate bill have the absolute same objectives. i think we're looking forward to this week, house passing the bill. obviously we would prefer if they kicked in sooner rather than later but we're goin

>> dickerson: question cool book. more of our conversation can white house budget director mick mulvaney. i want to just button up on this point about arcane senate rules. those are in place, though, to force budget discipline and so that people don't say let's get a lot of tax cuts blow a big hole in the deficit one of the huge knocks against this tax cut. size. debt but going to increase. >> they are. also written in 1974, haven't been changed, i don't think at all since then just very difficult to do, difficult to model a $20 trillion economy. make the argument if i sold 100 of these cups last year at $5 then i'd lower price to $4 this year that i won't sell any more. that's what the scoring does. it is arcane system, we think it's broken and doesn't reflect the real world but we have to play by those rules. >> dickerson: also, people are saying, i think you suggested this before the break, that eye shanely if people like the tax cuts they're going to get continued. future congress will do this. isn't that slightly dishonest you are hoping, i'm not saying you, in this general

>> dickerson: welcome back the "face the nation" we continue our conversation with authors whose new books explore leadership. robert dallek the author of "franklin delano roosevelt: a political life." ron cher now is author of "grant." and mark updegrove is the author of "the last republicans." mark i'll start with you on this question of what is your -- you call your book snoot last republicans" no. the bush family, why that title? >> because it was clear that the bush -- bushes represent a lost -- establishment republican party. right now we see a party at war with itself. still have establishment members of that party but there are insurgents who have taken over. the partynt stand for anything spiffs i can, there's no binding platform or principles it's really what standard bear, very capricious, unpredictable donald trump decides it wants to be. so in some manner the bushes, represent the end to a type of republicanism. >> dickerson: ron, why grant and was it the grant when you went into the book the same one as when you were finally done? >> you know, i have contearian, whe

yours. >> dickerson: we're back with mick mulvaney the director of white house office of management and budget. mr. director, i want to start with the individual mandate. something the president wants, it's in the bill now, part in the senate just make the numbers add up. if it was taken out would the president be okay with maybe cutting that corporate rate to 22% all the way down to 20 to make up that money that they need in the senate? >> no. i don't think so. i don't think anybody doubts where the president is on repeal or replace. the white house would love to see obamacare taken apart all at once, bit by bit. however we can do it. that being said, there's a couple of things that the president has been very clear on from the very beginning. number one, middle class ordinary americans working folks have to pay less and has to be simpler. number two, that corporate tax rate has to be as low as possible. virtually wanted it at 15%. we agreed with house senate leadership to go to 20% as part of the early discussions here. i don't think you'll see us interest in going above 20%: so,

nation" host john dickerson. john, former interim chair of the democratic national committee donna braz ille admitted in-- brazile admitted in her new book she considered a backup presidential ticket after hillary clinton fainted at the 9/11 memorial during the campaign. how does the in-fighting within the dnc affect the future of the democratic party? >> well, this book that donna brazile has written kind of kicks a braws that has been sitting there a little bit dorm ant in the public sphere. there has been a fight in the democratic party since the 2016 election. this exacerbates that fight. it shows how real that fight is, how there is disunity in the democratic party. there is no one kind of leader out of the pack and it's probably not tbing to get resolved until 2020. >> quijano: you have two big gubernatorial races coming up in virginia and new jersey. how do you think that disunity within the democratic party will impact the outcomes of the upk078ing elections? >> well, the most important one are the one everybody is looking and is very likely to overread, but let's-- is the

john dickerson, our chief washington correspondent and anchor of "face the nation." john, i noted today that former republican candidate mitt romney wrote on twitter: >> mason: what do you make of that, john? well, you know, romney has kind of started to play this voice as the moral voice of the republican party, speaking out in moral terms when there's that clash between morals and political success. but in this case, he's talking about a new standard in the wake of the harvey weinstein stories and other stories about sexual predators. the standards are changing. predators have used lack of absolute proof to escape punishment and have often lashed out at their accusers. now now, institutions from hollywood to corporate america and the senate are learning how to listen to women who are making these accusation. and what romney is essentially doing is applying that new standard. saying you don't need absolute proof. you is can have a certain amount of evidence, he's seen the evidence and he says it meets the test. >> mason: what exactly are the republicans' options now, john. >> rep

john dickerson. so john, what are the chances roy moore can win the alabama senate seat in the december? >> well, we don't know. the polling shows that moore is a little bit behind but given all the kompleg of this race and the moral baggage that it's taken on you have to be highly sceptical of state polling just anyway but also in this condition where people might not just say they're going to vote for him and ultimatedly end up voting for him. he has a core constituency who really loves him and the question is whether will are enough democrats white house raged by this behavior to actually turn out. but i think it's anybody's guess at this point. >> another issue, house republicans passed a tax bill earlier this week. a few republican senators still have questions about the senate version of the bill. will the senate, you think, be able to pass it before the end of the year. >> the legislative days are drawing short. there are sort of a handful of republican senators who have issues and the question is whether those issues can be addressed with changes in the bill. that's the

dickerson. interesting question here, john. president trump's approval rating here at home in the u.s. is about 38%. but in vietnam it's like well over 50%. one of the only places in the world where the president is so popular. why is that? >> well i all president is obviously popular outside of whoever the particular person is. that could be some portion of it. but i have no -- i don't know why the president is popular in vietnam, but, um -- >> usa today had an interesting article on that i don't know if you'd seen that. >>> about this trip overseas that he's making with asia, is he making the things that he wants to be doing. >> the most important thing on this trip is how he handles the north koreaen relationship and that is central to that is the relationship with china and so there's been a softening in his rhetoric with respect to china. this is a traditional thing for american presidents to be quite tough on china and be a lot softer particularly when they're in china. but the larger point here is that the u.s., the president is particular with president sheof china engaged
