let's raise it here on joe biden. it was republicans in the house specifically who said, we're not going to raise this debt ceiling without a condition. unless there is something actually egregious in this text when we get it tomorrow, i think that folks should expect that they will be very little fanfare from progressives on the specifics of the bill. and more so likely about the process. because they are learning right along with us right now. >> all right, well it does say something, symone, that the dems are sitting there waiting patiently for the text. while the republicans are getting exercised by the framework of the deal. that tells you a lot right there. they haven't seen the text. they are already losing their minds. msnbc, symone sanders-townsend. thank you so much for coming back and taking some time with us. folks, we will be right back with my expert panel for their final thoughts on this tentative deal, right after this. t afte this our business will save over $1000 bucks. what are you going to do with

first lady jill biden. going after opponents and their moms is what trump did. trump posted a message about, quote, those who dream endlessly of destroying our country because they're incapable of dreaming about anything else. weak and pathetic rinos, radical left democrats, socialists, marxists, and coom nists who are killing our nation. and then this. the federal bureau of fed ration investigation who's coering and paying social stream media and the one on thanksgiving where he wished a happy thanksgiving to all the haters and losers out there. meanwhile trump continues to blast e. jean carroll after a jury found him liable. he was accused of raping her in the 1990s in a department store dressing room and he denied about it. yesterday he posted several screen shot of carol's old tweets with no context. now, carroll's posts are all sexual in nation, as he's appealing the jury's verdict. meanwhile the former president of the ethics and religious liberty commission of southern baptists called the trump verdi
