heather: redistricting. >> exactly, redistricting. heather: on the point on not having a message, you're right, abc washington post poll on what the democrat party stands for and they tend to agree with you, 54% say the party is just against trump. 35% voted that it stands for something. they have a problem with their message to go begin with. >> we do. we have problem with leadership as well. i home from ohio, democrats voted for donald trump because he had an economic message. when you look at the democratic party led by nancy pelosi from california, chuck schumer from the state of new york, we are missing, you know, the realities of middle america, rural america. heather: right. >> that's where we need to focus, so i would say let's step up as the adult in the room and
2:54 am
govern. heather: on the point since you brought up the economy, this is a sound bite from him in reference to what the democratic party needs to do moving forward and has to do with the economy, listen to what he had to say. >> we are going race peoples' wages and create better-paying jobs and cut down on everyday expenses they have to pay and give them the tools they need to compete in the 21st century so simply put what democrats stand for, a better deal for working families, higher wages, less costs. heather: can they follow through, capri? >> that's a lovely sound bite but where are the policy proposals? we need to step up and go beyond the slogans and show policy proposals and follow through incrementally from the local levels to the state level and federal level in coordinated effort, we do stand for those things but we have to execute
2:55 am
them and have action and we have to have a cohesive message that really works and can deliver. that also means working with republicans. heather: less elitism as well. all right, thank you so much, capri. i appreciate you joining us. rob. rob: all right, ladies, thanks so much. 55 minutes after the hour now and this is a great story coming up here. the search for a cell phone ends up with one guy falling down a trash shoot. you are going to love it. stay tune. i'll never find a safe used car. start at the new carfax.com show me minivans with no reported accidents. boom. love it.
