Donald Trump and Paul Ryan's 'Great Conversation'

Donald Trump and Paul Ryan met this morning, and from their joint statement to the press, it sounds like they're committed to working together.
Melinda Henneberger, editor-in-chief of Roll Call and former senior writer at Bloomberg Politics, and William Saletan, Chief Political Correspondent for Slate Magazine, discusses the Trump-Ryan meeting and national politics of the day.
It sounds like a lot of distance was covered very quickly, asid Henneberger.
But Saletan warns against Ryan's move, calling it "very dangerous" and saying he's "buying short term peace at the expense of serious long-term problems...Paul Ryan either has no idea what he's dealing with or he's pretending to have no idea."
