Robert Gibbs: “Our boot on the throat of BP.”

I think suburban voters, particularly in Texas, are going to wonder why their attorney general is spending a lot more time as a defendant than he is as a prosecutor.

I think, to Murphy`s point around the grip that Trump has on the Republican Party, I think we saw this weekend, that grip continues to get tighter and tighter.

This is about raising money. This is about exciting the Trump base.

I think Democrats and Republicans will get an agreement on this. It`s not in anybody`s interest to fight out the government shutdown at this point.
