BRET BAIER: The question is, Charles, how much does this now change that dynamic? Republicans are now saying, okay, he's delaying it. He's still going to do this unconstitutional move right after the election, so hang on North Carolina, Arkansas, and wherever else.



CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: It will diminish the negative effect on Democrats because, as you say, any Republican will say, look, this is what's going on, he's going to hit you right after the election. On the other hand, if he did this now -- if he did this executive order -- which would be tremendously unconstitutional, part from the policy implications, it would be a firestorm. It would be in the headlines all day. It would really energize the GOP base and it would sink a whole bunch of Democratic Senators.



But to me, the real issue is just the way he just lies about this the same way he did with ISIS. He didn't call ISIS the JV team, though he obviously did. In the middle of his sentence explaining this, which is ridiculous, he saying -- he actually interrupted himself to say, 'Chuck,' he says, 'and I'm being honest now.' Well, whenever a politician interrupts a sentence to put that in, you know what you are about to hear is a bald-faced lie. And he did it without flinching. You sort of have to tip your hat.
