Good morning sir so let's the president out on the stump in Nevada yes Teri his son Tareq Al Mary's piece. Despite all the uproar over immigration he said quite clearly he wants to make immigration a big issue in the coming mid terms. Smart politics. This is his issue no question about it go back to the first speech of the first Davis presidential campaign. Back in 2015. This was the central issue the president believes that works for him he's gonna ride it all the way to the mid terms that's tricky one. Coming up in his mid terms on the positive side. The president it does tend unite and rally his Republican base get them fired up so that could help. In a lot of red states on the other hand. It could also fire the Democrats fire Latinos turn off suburban women who Republican House candidates need if they're gonna survive I think good.

Guys we are heading into uninteresting mid terms full employment act for political reporters so let me ask you about another related issue terror Paul merry also reported earlier. That congress is preparing to vote on a narrow bill here that would quote and quote fix the president's executive order on these family separations. And give leeway so that you can hold families. For more than twenty days together does that mean we're heading into a future were will be holding families perhaps indefinitely behind mark. If it passed I think it's unlikely the law like has confessed even if you got a Republican majority. In the house behind I I believe. That there are not Democrats and senate to filibuster to prevent that. From passing because a lot of Democrats think it's both inhumane and impractical you can't simply detained families a for a long period of time as you point out the current law. I says you can't detained children. For more than twenty days in fact this week a judge is likely to strike down. The presence executive order on those grounds saying no this is it's it's not compatible with the law because we keep kids behind twenty days. Once that happens it could be a free for all over again. George Stephanopoulos always great to have your analysis on the Sunday morning and I want to remind everybody Georgia has a big show this morning immigration at the top of the docket he's gonna go one on one with senator. Jeff flake and congressman Luis Gutierrez plus Tamara house roundtable. It's all coming up on this week later this morning right here on ABC tourists think union appreciate.
