Kasie Hunt: Dems Were ‘Dripping with Disdain’ Last Night

EXCERPT:

HUNT: "But the language that the President has been using throughout the campaign, but also specifically last night, made it so that these Democrats were sitting in the audience watching him, dripping with disdain. I’m trying to come up with a good comparison for what it was like, almost like dragging a teenager to church and making them sit through it when they don’t want to. I think that just is going to make it really hard to get this deal done. To a certain extent, the President needed to talk to conservative hard liners in his own party who have kind of decided they think this proposal is amnesty. He needed to lay down some of those markers for them, but, you know, it’s not lost on Democrats that, you know, David Duke and Richard Spencer are seizing on that line, 'Americans are dreamers, too,' and saying thank you. They are reading the context you guys were alluding to at the top of the show very seriously. And I just right now I came away from the speech thinking, 'Okay, tonight a DACA deal is harder than it was when we walked into the chamber.'"
