| 0:00.0 | Good Monday morning. I'm Jake Sherman and welcome to your Politico Playbook Audio Briefing, sponsored by Morgan Stanley. |
| 0:06.5 | And I'm Anna Palmer. We've got some breaking news overnight. Politico is reporting that Senate Republicans have updated their last-ditch effort to repeal Obamacare in an effort to win over skeptical Senate Republicans. |
| 0:17.6 | The revised bill would steer more federal funding to Alaska, Arizona, and Kentucky |
| 0:21.8 | in an attempt to get John McCain, Rand Paul, and Lisa Murkowski to support it. Despite the move, |
| 0:28.6 | Senate Republican aides are skeptical, this will turn the process around. Much of the opposition |
| 0:33.1 | to the bill is fundamental. And momentum is everything on Capitol Hill, and right now it isn't with |
| 0:38.5 | this bill. We've got a first in playbook. The group Save My Care is going up with a six-figure ad on |
| 0:44.0 | cable and network TV, urging Senate Republicans to reject the health care bill. Our colleague, |
| 0:48.9 | Josh Dawsey, is a big scoop this morning. He's reporting that Jared Kushner has used private |

| 1:08.4 | Peter Baker of the New York Times has the stepback piece on how Trump is a divider, not a |
| 1:13.2 | uniter, looking at how Trump has attacked everyone from the NFL to John McCain, Chuck Schumer, |
| 1:18.8 | and Steph Curry, all on his day off. Baker writes, never in modern times has an occupant of the |
| 1:25.4 | Oval Office seem to reject so thoroughly the |
| 1:28.5 | nostrum that a president's duty is to bring the country together. Relentlessly, pugnacious, |
| 1:34.5 | energized by a fight, unwilling to let any slight go unanswered, Mr. Trump has made himself |
| 1:39.8 | America's apostle of anger. It's deacon of divisiveness. Speaking of divisiveness, Trump versus the |
| 1:46.1 | NFL was on full display Sunday with about 150 players sitting, kneeling, or raising their fists |
| 1:52.3 | in defiance during early games. The AP reports it's an uptick from just six players protesting a week |
