millions of folks. a lot of folks coming are not seeking asylum. they are undocumented immigrants. and you said recently that the reason you didn't want to repeal section 1325. you were concerned about human trafficking and drug trafficking. section 18 title 18 of the u.s. code, title 21 and 22. already cover -- do your home work on the issue. >> joining me now. julian castro. who made headlines for that confrontation with o'rourke. thank you for being with us. van jones said that was a texas take down. and clocked o'rourke. i wonder how you think tonight went? >> i think it went great. a lot of people who maybe hasn't

been paying attention to my campaign. saw a strong performance. we had the highest jump in mentions. people took notice. and i think what they saw tonight i i'm a strong can date. i have a great vision for the future of the country. i can handle myself. and i can beat donald trump. i can go and get the 80,000 votes we lost in michigan, wisconsin and pennsylvania and i'm the parties best hope to take the 29 votes of this state i'm in now. florida. the eleven votes of arizona. and the 38 votes of my home state of texas. it went great. we're seeing good feed back from people. >> your google search have gone up 2,000%. which is a lot over the course of the two hour debate. it was interesting that what he said to you was not true. as you pointed out. he was saying that you're just focusing on a small piece of this. whether or not people are charged criminally or civilly.

for crossing over into the united states, that's a major issue. not a tiny little section. >> it is. i was glad to support congressman o'rourke last year when he ran against cruz. i respect him. at the same time he hasn't done his home work on the issue. as congressman ryan agreed with me, we have laws that address human trafficking and drug trafficking. that has nothing to do with what i'm talking about. my plan would eliminate section 23. the whole reason that this trump administration is able to separate little children from their parents. i want to end family separation. my immigration plan does that and o'rourke's plan doesn't. he has failed. and i hope that he and everybody else who hasn't agreed with me will change their position. it's so important to end this policy. and reflect who we ought to be

as a country. >> you spoke in almost emotional terms ability the photograph that we have seen in the story of the father and the little girl who drowned trying to cross. i want to play for the viewers what you said. >> watching that image of oscar and his daughter. is heartbreaking. it should piss us off. if i were president today -- and it should spur action. if i were president today i would sign an order to get rid of trumps zero tolerance policy. the the remain in mexico policy and the metering policy. this is what prompted oscar to make the risky swim across the river. they have been playing games with people who are coming and trying to seem asylum. oscar went to a port of entry. and denied the ability to make a

claim. they got frustrated and tried to cross the river and died because of that. on day one. i would do that executive order. and i would follow that up in my first 100 days with immigration reform to honor asylum claims and put undocumented immigrants as long as they haven't committed a serious crime on a path to citizen ship. and cut to the issue. we need a marshall plan. so people can find safety and opportunity at home. instead of coming to the united states to seek it. >> would having a path way for citizen ship for all undocumented immigrants in the country currently would that -- the counter argument to that that republicans make is it will encourage everyone more people to come. >> that's absolutely not true. look at what happened in the

last year. a year ago, the trump administration told us if we would be cruel enough to separate little children from their mothers, that would deter more central american families from coming to the country. instead last month 144,000 people came to the border. i have had enough of trying their failure and cruelty. i have believe we can maintain a secure border and choose common sense. and compassion. and we can be smarter and effective and humane. by investing in ensuring people can find safety and opportunity. so people don't have to come and find it in the united states. i know that republicans are always going to accuse democrats of being for open borders. nobody has said anything about open borders. that's a right wing talking point. we have 644 mile of fencing. thousands of personnel at the

border. we have planes approximate helicopters. boets and guns and security cameras. we'll maintain a secure border. we won't engage in the cruelty we have seen on display with the trump administration. >> i want to mention, you spiked 2400% in the google debate. how you take this forward? you have momentum tonight. how do you move forward? >> first of all i hope folks go to my web site. and help me move it forward. contributing $5, $10 to the campaign. i had to sneak that in. also it's true that people may not have been paying attention to my campaign before tonight. they are now. i want you to know i have the right experience. strong executive experience to be president. a strong vision. to create the smartest and fairest and prosperous nation and i can beat trump. in michigan, wisconsin and

pennsylvania. but also here in florida. and arizona and texas. i will work hard every day to make sure that you and your family have good healthcare when you need it. your child can get a good education and that everybody can have good job opportunities. where ever you live. >> secretary, appreciate your time. >> right now political team. >> the thing that surprised me. his like ap level of feminism. he came out for the era. which would have been laughable in a candidate fen years ago. we understand it to be a necessity. he talked about reproductive justice. which is one of the phrases that signals to people you get it. he brought up transwomen. this was an exceptional appearance by a male candidate. who i had no idea was so versed in the issues. >> what struck me, the way he

attacked o'rourke. they're not buddies. and we know in order for him to succeed, o'rourke has to go down. i understand that. a lot of times in the debate when you do that, your on the attack. sometimes you get hurt by it. the person you attack may get hurt. and the front runner may benefit. we saw it happen with christy. rubio and trump benefitted. in this case actually he was so adept about it, he really benefitted from the attack. and o'rourke did not. >> it's devastating when you see them confronting o'rourke with actual subsections of the law. >> you're a practitioner. you can appreciate this. that was -- he came with plan. the plan was not just the initial hit. what the response was likely to be. and his response to the

response. it was very well done. >> these debates are about moments. can you create the moment. every candidate wants to create a moment. it's hard to do. he did it. >> the repeated phrase you didn't do your home work. >> on the stage. >> that's been the wrap on beto o'rourke. he wasn't ready for prime time. he centered his candidacy on immigration. on being from el paso. obviously speaking spanish. it was devastating for o'rourke. does beto o'rourke move on this issue. >> i don't think that's the biggest problem he has. >> unfortunately. i think that may have been his last hoo ra. >> he's done? >> he's done. he's done. because there was such hope and expectation about it.

tonight was really the night to remind people why he was an incredible rising star and on the issue he should have been at least fluent on. he got his butt kicked. >> his entire -- >> hard. >> and it's just some justice in there was a sense he was trying to fail up. he somehow even though he lost in texas. it's great shot. i want to under score this feminism. that castro showed. he wasn't showy about it. it wasn't inauthentic. or pandering. he learned something about what's happening in the country and what's needed. when you combine those two things. he passionate about the immigration issue. and other issues as well. and he just did something extraordinary. >> toughest thing for beto was what's every democrat looking

for. someone to beat trump. castro went at him. sliced and diced him up. people are thinking. think of trump on the debate stage. they want somebody to stand up and be tough. that was what a really devastating thing. he was knocked op his heels. >> i have been reluctant to even though he's had stumbles. to write him off. there's a humanity to the guy. you can see it. on the campaign trail he proved in texas, he does connect with people. but, there are a lot of elements to running for president. one is handling moments like that. more than anything he had to have a great night tonight to jump start what had been a campaign that had stumbled. and he had a set back. so that's very tough. >> we'll take a break. a lot more to cover. joining us, senator warren. we'll be right back.

night one of the debate one of campaign 2020 in the books. night two later today. sanders and biden will be the top liners. tonight it was massachusetts senator warren. she joins us now. thank you for being with us. you had the most buzz going into tonight. are you happy, satisfied with how it went? >> oh, look. it was wonderful to have a chance to be out there and talk about how it is that we can actually make this country work come 2020. i loved it. this is has been my life's work. to talk about what's happening to working families. how it is that america works for a thinner and thinner slice at the top. and how we turn that around. so, i loved it had. >> you're obviously strong on policy specifics. one needs to draw contrast with

opponents. do you feel you had those moments tonight? was that something you wanted to do tonight or speak about yourself and policy? >> i want a chance to tell people why i'm in the fight. that means tell them about who i am. and a little bit about what it is that i'm fighting for. this is why i got into the presidential race. i hope other democrats get out there and make the case. i think it's as democrats, that's exactly what we need to do. this is not about making a trump, trump all the time. that's an old show. i think this is the moment that democrats can say here's our vision for the america that we can build. and for me, it means america of opportunity and our best value. >> it's interesting. we put together a montage

talking about trump. you were not in that. i'm not sure if we didn't have time. and couldn't find it. or you didn't mention his name. >> i don't think i mentioned his name. what i wanted to talk about is a lot bigger than trump. i started out talking about corruption. when you have a government that works great for people with money, for giant drug companies. not for people trying to get a prescription. works great for giant oil companies that want to drill everywhere. but not for people who seek climate change bearing down upon us. that is corruption. pure and simple. every decision that gets made in washington is touched by money. touched by that corruption. for me, this is about fighting back. it's about taking that corruption head on. and it's about making our democracy work. making our economy work. making our country work.

we can do that. it's going to take all of us. >> did you you want to -- this is a process question. would you have preferred to be on the stage with senator sanders? obviously you both of you have -- are similar in terms of progressive policies. >> no, we have been friend forever. long before i ever got involved in politics. i went to vermont and did town halls with him. i have given him word around when the housing crash was coming. so i'm always glad to be anywhere with him and have a chance to carry on a conversation with him. that's not how the draw worked. tonight it was a chance to talk where there were a lot of other democrats up there. i have to say this, everybody up there, anyone of them would make a better president than donald

trump. democrats were out there making the fight for what they want to do. and i'm glad to see that. it's strong. it's how we build democracy. >> you were asked how you would deal with mitch mcconnell. there's questions about him. he retains a majority. >> i'm scratching my head about the particular focus. but i want to play what you had to say. >> do you have plan to deal with mitch mcconnell? >> i do. we are democracy. and the way a democracy is supposed to work is the will of the people matters. sure. i want to see us get a democratic majority in the senate. short of a democratic majority in the senate you better understand, the fight still goes on. it starts in the white house, it

means that everybody we energize in 2020 stays on the front lines come january 2021. we have to push from the outside, have leadership from the inside. and make this congress reflect the will of the people. >> essentially you're saying there needs to be the people who come out for a 2020 election. that needs to be sustained. that is not something we have seen happen in recent history. certainly. is that realistic? >> you know, anderson, that i'm running a campaign that's different from most of the democrats in this primary. i have done more than 100 town halls. i have taken more than 2,000 questions. i have been to 21 states and puerto rico. and the reason i have done that is because i believe that's how we build a grass roots movement.

the way i had the time to do that, is i haven't been doing fundraisers with millionaires. i haven't been going behind closed doors. and saying who knows what to people with money and power already. i have been investing in building a grass roots movement. asking people to pitch in $5. to volunteer an hour. to go online and sign up to get on the e-mail list. because we have this chance as democrats right now, this year. to build the kind of strong grassroots movement that will serve us come november 2020. help us win not just the white house. but help us win up and down the ticket. but more importantly, it will be building the momentum for real change come january 2021. look, i'm not running for president so that i can talk about change come 2021. i'm running for president

because i want to make real change. and i'm laying the foundation for that. right now. >> senator warren. appreciate your time. >> you bet. >> iowa voters weigh in on what they saw tonight. next. ke netflix? sure you do. that's why it's on us. 2. unlimited data. use as much as you want, when you want. 3. no surprises on your bill. taxes and fees included. still think you have a better deal? bring in your discount, and we'll match it. that's right. t-mobile will match your discount. bill's back needed a afvacation from his vacation. an amusement park... so he stepped on the dr. scholl's kiosk. it recommends our best custom fit orthotic to relieve foot, knee, or lower back pain. so you can move more. dr. scholl's. born to move.

fireworks, separation, or any other anxieties, (announcer) if your dog suffers from fear of thunder, thundershirt may be the answer. thundershirt, absolutely, 100% works. including in iowa. perhaps you have heard that. in iowa city. with a group of democrats to see what they ought about what they saw and heard from the candy dates tonight. >> 222 days from today the iowa caucus takes place. we thought it would be interesting to talk to the democrats in iowa. and watch the debate. and specifically come to johnson county, iowa. the bluest county of the 99 counties in the state of iowa. watch it with people. their votes matter.

if you don't do well here, you're not going to win iowa. here we have 12 very democrats. i must stress they are uncommitted. no one decided who they will vote for yet. that's an important point. which you watched this, in iowa city here. quick question. who are you most impressed with? >> i'm undecided. not enough about real issues yet. >> warren and booker. >> warren and castro. >> castro and warren. >> warren and klobuchar. >> castro. >> warren and booker. >> warren, booker, klobuchar. >> warren. >> warren castro. >> warren and booker. >> i hear from most of you is warren. tell me why you're so impressed? >> she stated how strong she is.

a great background. and she really not only the fight for the 2020 but beyond. >> who picked booker? who liked booker? why? >> i had him one of the choices. he could rally voters. he could motivate voters to be excited about the election and get to the polls in november. >> you said insly. >> he misstepped once on abortion rights and women's rights. he raised his profile for me. i have been following warren, booker, and de blasio because they have been front and center. nationally. i hadn't paid much attention to him. listening to him talk about climate change and policy on tackling insurance. really hit home for me. >> anything that surprised anybody? >> i was surprised by the strength of de blasio.

and -- >> he interrupted a lot. do you like that? >> he had a different approach than most of the others. he talked about what the democratic party needs to be. and he really came out much more strongly than i expected him to. >> one of the things we talked about during the break between the end of the debate and now. was the lack of discussion of agriculture and farming. you're a farmer. that bothered you. >> if we don't focus on issues we. figure out to get voters back. we need to focus on real issues. >> i didn't say you were all uncommitted. no one made a decision. you're all proud to be iowaen. in part of the process you're the first to vote in the country. anyone after watching this debate now feel like i know who i'll vote for? >> no. >> let's say there was a debate tomorrow. would you be ready to pick somebody? >> no. >> and the final question.

after watch lg this debate, i need ask. you never know. do any of you after watching this candidates and being somewhat disappointed in the responses. are any of you more sensitive to donald trump? and think he's a better president. >> no. >> not at all. >> never. >> all sticking with democrats. >> yes. >> okay. thank you all for watching with us. it was a pleasure. we provided pizza for everybody. we don't let anybody starve. will opinions change tomorrow? stay tuned when we have part two of the next five candidates. same 12 people. and the same chairs with different clothes. will be with us. >> something else other than pizza. two nights in a row. >> anything stand out to you? >> we were kind of a little bit

weak on booker. they said booker a lot. that was interesting. >> you were weak on booker. >> who's weak? >> but listen, warren first of all when she was talking and came out and interviewed her, i felt like maybe help is on the way. and that's something i haven't felt. for a long time. i think she's doing something that's working. and i do think that she talks bert than the democrats. she listens better than the democrats. it makes a difference in her being in the living rooms and talking to people. and not having to figure out the donors. that can get in their head. not always. i think warren she is getting through. she's cutting through. >> the most exciting thing about her is that she really articulates a post trump progressive america. and it is it's just such a

relief. to imagine a post trump america. and with some of the other candidates i hear bits and pieces of policy that i like. things i'm excited about. background and bios. she says this is where i want to go as a country. i get the seasonse she has a pl. >> we have heard over the months that warren is frightening to the center. center democrats and business oriented democrats. and so on. do you think she is -- softened that resistance tonight? sanders is atalking her now as a corporate democrats. >> listen, projob. warren is gone up in people oos eyes last couple months. i'm very impressed with her policy positions. she's people want answers to the questions. she's laying things out every

day. people believe there ought to be corporate tax. she's hitting a great nerve. a lot of people warmed up to her. >> what's interesting -- >> it helped her a lot tonight. this is all getting picked out of a hat. she was the star. >> it shows what a benefit it was for warren tonight. tomorrow night when we're here discussing it. the other four of the top five will debate. so when i'm listening to the iowa voters and all citing warren. it to me it reenforced, yes it was draw. i get it. it was random. she scored the best. >> lucky. >> this was a debate. for democratic primary voters and she was front and center. is remains front and center. she does represent the base of the party. in many ways. the debate tomorrow night is

going to be more general election oriented. i would argue. more trump. and when you look at her relationship with biden, which is not good. it will be interesting to see whether he talks about those policies at all. or other people raise it. he gets questioned about it. and what about medicare for all. >> another break in. coming up next more on the subject. what the group heard in the conversation we had with senator warren. about 50% of people with severe asthma have too many cells called eosinophils in their lungs. eosinophils are a key cause of severe asthma. fasenra is designed to target and remove these cells. fasenra is an add-on injection for people 12 and up with asthma driven by eosinophils. fasenra is not a rescue medicine or for other eosinophilic conditions. fasenra is proven to help prevent severe asthma attacks,

picking up the conversation. warren and her performance tonight. i asked if she would have preferred to debate sanders tonight. here's what she said. >> bernie and i have been friends forever. and long before i ever got involved in politics. i went up to vermont and did town halls with him. i have given him work around when the housing crash was coming. and i'm always glad to be anywhere with bernie and have chance to carry on a conversation with him. but that's not how the draw worked. so tonight, it was a chance to talk where there were other democrats up there. i have to say this, everybody who was up there anyone of them would make a better president than donald trump. >> the bs meter.

>> the fact of the matter is there was real friction between them. he thought she should have endorsed him in the race in 2016. they're rivals in the race. there's resentment he's stealing her thunder. and you remember they met before the beginning. >> there was a sanders warren meeting where they were trying to figure out if there was a way both wouldn't end up in the race. >> they had an idea of who the other the person should be. >> in 2016. it really was warren who was the person that a lot of the progressive groups wanted to see in the race. bill clinton was nerve about the prospect of warren getting into the race because of her appeal. and how she talks and debating skills. >> she with all the policy, she has taken some of the sentiments that surround sanders and she's turned it into something else. and i actually do think he serves her purposes in the race.

because she's clearly a candidate of the left. he's trying to run to the left of her. by doing that he's making her more acceptable to people who are more center right. >> he has to follow her tomorrow is really not good for him. she articulated his platform. with more meat on the bones. he has to go -- he says differently. >> his delivery. >> bernie sanders has reimagined reinvented the democratic party without ever joining it. it was a year ago today, yesterday. that aoc won. knocked off krouly. people said who is this young woman. she's now one of the most famous people in american politics. and she's a sanders democrat. so really, part of the thing that's tough for bernie. he's authored an era that he may

not be able to own. in that the entire party has mooved in his direction. tomorrow you'll see somebody who really -- tonight we were arguing tonight. saying the public option is not good enough. which we were fighting for under obama. it's all about medicare for all. this is all -- >> tomorrow night does sanders and biden do they. >> it will be a war. >> tomorrow night will be a war to settle the score between the moderates and progressives in the party. brawl to end it all. it will be a fight. >> van has been listening to -- >> one more thing. >> what else you got, van? >> i'm sorry. i said it earlier. i think that in order to kind of

reignite his cred. he'll try and use joe biden as a foil. turn biden into a representative of the establishment democrat. and a guy who has been on the right side of the fights. and biden is on the wrong side. as far as the left is concerned. i would be shocked if that didn't happen. >> this may, that could work to his benefit. how he handles it. it could be an opportunity for him to stand up. >> biden likes bernie more than warren. >> coming up next. what out rage looked like tonight and sounded like as well.

immigration and border crisis took center stage tonight. providing several candidates with opportunities to make headlines and provided to demonstrate their ability to speak spanish. take a look.

[ speaking foreign language ] >> back now with the group. i don't know. >> i understood everything they said. >> who's best at speaking spanish? >> i think probably cory has a better sense of the language.

castro obviously has the best accent. when non-spanish candidates use the language, you always risk going into parody and pandering. and since it was an telemundo. they get a pass. they were talking -- to the audience. you're not standing on the stage. >> don't do that with donald trump on the stage. >> i'm glad they gave it a shot. we should be poking fun at the candidates that only speak one language. >> look at the incredible diversity up there. it's unbelievable. look at the ten people running for office. they have three women, a woman of color. another woman of color tomorrow. i'm proud of this party. in the face of donald trump doing all the stuff he does, to make it seem like if you're not this person you're not america. this party is not afraid to say everybody here -- and the people who were not represented in terms of lgbtq. were talked about as if they

were. >> are candidates emerging that you can see going toe to toe with donald trump? >> listen, i don't know anybody who can tell you thou get on stage with donald trump and fight him and win. but i saw stuff tonight that i was very encouraged by. obviously everybody is talking about elizabeth warren. she did a really good job. frankly, if you look at the way he did not do -- he didn't get the buzz that he got. but there was a strength to even inslee. inslee looked like he was ready to tackle donald trump and physically probably could do it. you had people on that stage that had substance, that had passion, that were ready to go. so i'm not afraid as donald trump as i used to be. i think this party might be getting its act together. >> this is not donald trump's first election. everybody saw what they saw last time. they saw the name-calling during the primary debate. you obviously didn't see any of that. tonight donald trump called people names right to their face. and so i think people have seen

it, and in a way they may be exhausted by it. so you may -- >> that's a good point. >> so you may need something else this time to take on donald trump. you can't fight the last war against him. so what will it mean? will it mean somebody who is cool and measured and not willing to go there and we're just not there yet. >> thing is a central question which is how do you deal with donald trump, and will he have more trouble with a candidate who seems unbothered by him and speaks beyond him and doesn't seem goaded by him. i think there is a real possibility. i really do believe there is a sense of exhaustion in the country. >> yeah. >> and someone who represents a kind of stability and maybe a more decorum, decency and so on, on that stage with him would be very frustrating. >> that's the whole thing. he is going toe to toe with donald trump in a way that i think some others aren't.

you heard elizabeth warren talk about that tonight, right. she says it's an old show. trump is an old show. don't make it all about trump. it is interesting. what does she do with donald trump? does she sort of not deal with him or does she feel like she has to go toe to toe with him in the way biden does. >> if he is on stage and he is calling her pocahantas, what does she do? >> i think being unbothered is probably the way to go with it. biden was in 2016 saying he wanted to take trump behind the bleachers. >> and then apologized that a couple of days later. >> i don't think biden is the cool, calm match for trump's aggression. we just don't know yet. we saw a lot of people on stage i think would be just fine. >> here is a question. buttigieg has gotten some notice because he is so different in terms of temperament and demeanor and how he answers questions. and i think that's a reaction to donald trump. >> let's talk more about what tomorrow may bring. we're going to take a quick break. we'll look ahead to norm night's candidates.

>> i think biden is going to be front and center. >> it's not too early for fireworks? >> not if you're bernie sanders. >> bernie sanders has been putting it out, bernie sanders is running against the democratic establishment. bernie sanders is not running against donald trump right now. he seems to be positioning joe biden as the democratic establishment. with good reason. but it will be really out of character for the time of campaign he is running to not go at that. >> he is rerunning the race he ran in 2016. the goal is to make biden hillary clinton. it worked to a certain extent. we'll see if it works for him this go round. >> we need a drinking game to see how many times joe biden mentions donald trump. >> you think he will stick with -- >> oh, completely. and i think that's his rebuff to bernie. he may have some specific rebuttals. but i think his thing is going to be hey, man, this is bigger, okay. this is an existential threat to the country, donald trump. and this is not what this is about.

we all generally knagree on whe the main thing is we have to beat him. i'm not here tonight to play bumper cars with you guys. >> i think yang is going to have a moment, just because this guy is unbelievable. he is the only guy out there talking about the threat of like artificial intelligence and robots and technology, and we're going to lose our jobs. and it's a real thing. if you talk to economists, it's a real thing. he talks about it. he makes it really interesting. i like marianne williams. i know, i know. but she talks about the spiritual crisis. jay inslee talking about the ecological climate crisis. i think that's good. yang talking about the technology. marianne williamson the spiritual. >> are you seeing her as a vp? >> she could go all the way. >> you know who they're not talking about? barack obama. that was interesting to me. and maybe, maybe biden will talk about -- that's what i was going to say, tomorrow night biden.

>> will wear the little bracelet. >> biden, tomorrow in addition to answering the sanders issue, there is this question that hangs over the biden candidacy. does he get up? man of this moment for this party in this time. and i think he has to go some distance to assuage that concern. >> there is also just the physical message that he sends with how he presents himself. there are questions. >> yeah. >> as to whether he is up to this. he is 76 years old. he'll be 78 if he gets elected when he takes office. he has been rather sheltered by his campaign. and the question is can he stand there for two hours. >> take it. >> and take it and look vigorous and energetic, and a guy who is ready to lead. i think that's important. >> especially taking it from a young whippersnapper like bernie sanders. >> exactly. >> it's an important night for kamala harris. >> for sure. >> she has a lot of promise as a candidate, but it isn't yet clear what her message is. and i think she has to come and

explain that tomorrow night. >> all right. our live debate coverage continues with a special edition of cuomo primetime right now. chris? >> thank you very much, anderson. i appreciate it. well, that's it. round one is in the books. you could say that the election has now officially begun. so i know everybody likes to be high-minded about this. i don't. who won? who lost? look, the big thing you saw on the stage tonight is that your two big front-runners weren't there. you didn't have biden you. didn't have sanders. you did have elizabeth warren. she was treated like the front-runner. did she perform like that? you're going to hear some new names. you're going to hear julian castro a little bit. you're going to hear tulsi gabbard. you're going to hear beto o'rourke, maybe not in a good way, maybe yes. i say let's take a look at the different metrics and figure out who rose and who fell. we will look at elizabeth warren because you've got to treat the
