The next day he told reporters, “I have an appetite for background checks — we are going to be doing background checks.” On the the economy, he said Tuesday that a payroll tax cut is “something that we think about.” The very next day he reversed course, saying “I’m not looking at a tax cut now — we don’t need it.” CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss.
