Michael Edison Hayden, politics reporter for Newsweek, discusses the deal Democrats made with Republicans to re-open the government for another three weeks. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) promised to address immigration before the next funding deadline.
Hayden weighs in on whether Democrats made a mistake by accepting a verbal agreement from McConnell, who has yet to follow through on promises he made to members of his own party.
