Published | Video Starts at 14:38

We've covered the aca, we talked a little bit about medication, abortion, also called mifepristone. What about this $230 million that Donald Trump was seeking $230 million from the Justice Department. Department's guy? He was like so open about it, like so casual. It's really so unbelievable that I just like to pause that Donald Trump thinks that the American people owe him $230 million. (14:38–14:45)
