[excerpt MODERATOR But I ░░░░░░░░ to go back in ░░░░░░░░ a little bit and ░░░░░░░░ this magic era of ░░░░░░░░ having complete control and ░░░░░░░░ I mean by that ░░░░░░░░ we had Barack Obama ░░░░░░░░ the new president of ░░░░░░░░ United States and Democrats ░░░░░░░░ had control of the ░░░░░░░░ and the Senate But ░░░░░░░░ were a lot of ░░░░░░░░ to you know Republican ░░░░░░░░ at the time when ░░░░░░░░ reality there really didn ░░░░░░░░ need to be concessions ░░░░░░░░ mean Republicans are much ░░░░░░░░ willing to work with ░░░░░░░░ they don t reach ░░░░░░░░ the aisle and the ░░░░░░░░ of Merrick Garland as ░░░░░░░░ Supreme Court justice is ░░░░░░░░ example of that What ░░░░░░░░ in that case was ░░░░░░░░ such an injustice and ░░░░░░░░ infuriating So what happened ░░░░░░░░ Obama s first term ░░░░░░░░ how can we ensure ░░░░░░░░ Democrats get things done ░░░░░░░░ they have that level ░░░░░░░░ power in the future ░░░░░░░░ So when we flip ░░░░░░░░ House and flip the ░░░░░░░░ I think the first ░░░░░░░░ we should do is ░░░░░░░░ with the children who ░░░░░░░░ been separated from their ░░░░░░░░ at the border I ░░░░░░░░ we should get rid ░░░░░░░░ ICE We should separate ░░░░░░░░ the two missions the ░░░░░░░░ terrorism mission the national ░░░░░░░░ mission and then on ░░░░░░░░ other side make sure ░░░░░░░░ re doing looking at ░░░░░░░░ as a humanitarian issue ░░░░░░░░ are civil issues these ░░░░░░░░ families look at it ░░░░░░░░ the economic engine that ░░░░░░░░ is that immigration is ░░░░░░░░ strength it is our ░░░░░░░░ it s what makes ░░░░░░░░ country and our economy ░░░░░░░░ strong So re looking ░░░░░░░░ that issue I think ░░░░░░░░ should pass the government ░░░░░░░░ issues within the first ░░░░░░░░ all of them universal ░░░░░░░░ checks the anti trafficking ░░░░░░░░ sure people can t ░░░░░░░░ bump stocks large magazine ░░░░░░░░ all that work I ░░░░░░░░ do all that I ░░░░░░░░ just focus on things ░░░░░░░░ the American people are ░░░░░░░░ angry about and really ░░░░░░░░ about.”
