0:00.0 | You know what tomorrow is? Tomorrow's Friday Eve. Hang in there. But I'm happy to have you here |
0:05.0 | tonight, because tonight it is time for us all together to do some spilunking. That's right. It is |
0:13.1 | time together to explore some caves. Following this weekend's big protests, more than 1,400 protests in all 50 states, some of them in big cities like Chicago and New York and Washington, D.C., each of those topping 100,000 people at simultaneous protests. It was crazy. |
0:34.9 | After that big, big show of resistance to Donald Trump's presidency |
0:38.6 | and what he's doing to the country, tonight, interesting news out of Washington, interesting |
0:44.9 | news out of Congress. Tonight, Republicans in the House had expected to pass their budget blueprint |
0:51.2 | for the whole government, for all the spending in the government. Republicans, |
0:54.9 | of course, control the House. They only need a majority to pass it so they can pass it just on |
0:59.2 | their own parties say so. But just within the last hour or so, they have had to poll that |
1:04.1 | tonight because Republicans in the House apparently don't have support to get it done. |
1:10.0 | So they have canceled their budget vote tonight, |
1:13.2 | expecting that it would have failed had they put it up. And again, they can pass it only with |
1:17.8 | their own members because they have a majority in the House. They've canceled that vote tonight. |
1:21.8 | They may try again in the morning. We shall see. Meanwhile, in the wake of those demonstrations this weekend, we've also got some new polling in from Quinepiac University, which essentially validates the criticism of Trump that we saw on display in such large numbers this weekend. |
1:39.1 | The big protests this weekend were on Saturday. This latest Quinepeak poll was in the field on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Actually, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. So it overlapped in time with these demonstrations. But this poll is a nationwide poll of how the American public is feeling about Trump and how he's doing as president. From the results of this poll, you'd almost |
2:03.3 | think they just polled the demonstrators. Because what people were saying in the streets |
2:08.7 | and at state capitals and on the national mall on Saturday is pretty much in keeping with what |
2:15.2 | the public at large was telling pollsters who were in the field |
2:18.8 | at the same time. Here's what I mean. Quote, do you approve or disapprove of the way Donald Trump |
2:24.2 | is handling his job as president? Disapprove by a margin of 12 points. Do you approve or disapprove of |
2:31.3 | the way Donald Trump is handling the federal workforce? Disapprove by a margin of 13 points. Do you approve or disapprove of the way Donald Trump is handling the federal workforce? Disapprove by a margin of 13 points. |
2:36.9 | Do you approve or disapprove of the way Donald Trump is handling foreign policy? |
