The legislative branch has abdicated a lot of responsibility to the executive under his watch.

I think the reality is that during this administration you've seen Iran embolden.
I think it's an enormously missed opportunity. I think the reality is, to Hallie's conversation, Trump's not going to bleed support. His support is locked in.
I do think as well that Trump is always a contrarian. So the more the press tells him he can't do it, the more he will dig in and want to wrap himself around her, which again, I don't think is helpful to where you're trying to get between…
I agree with that. But I think let’s stop also and reflect. There are eight Americans still being held hostage.
I think that leaders of our higher education institutions are so collectively cowards today.
I think the president's actions on January 6th, he should be held accountable to the voters.
I think that the vast majority of voters when he's leading these polls, it's because they're concerned about Bidenomics. They're concerned about inflation. They're concerned about the crisis at the border.
I think that Joe Biden has failed on all of them, whether or not it's the inflation, the border crisis, war in the Middle East, war in Eastern Europe.
I think there's urgency, and I think Speaker Johnson is uniquely positioned right now in a very divided conference to help unite it and get that done.
I think the Biden administration is getting weak kneed on this. I think it's concerning.
