AUSTIN, Texas -- House investigations of the Trump administration and the prospect of impeachment have been clouding out any talk of legislative progress in Washington.

Senators in both parties appeared frustrated by the latest blow-up between the president and Democratic leadership Wednesday. That's when President Trump stalked out of a meeting with Democrats, which had been set up to talk about how to pay for a $2 trillion package to repair the nation's roads and bridges.

Trump vowed not to work with Congress unless Democrats stop investigating him.

U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, discussed the dust-up and potential legislative logjam with Capital Tonight’s Karina Kling.
