go rewards® credit card from navy federal credit union... our members are the mission. >> shannon: if you are just joining us, this is "fox news @ night" extended live coverage version of the 2020 democratic primary debate and i am shannon bream in miami. life in the spin room for another hour for you tonight and tonight we just saw the second ten of the democratics in the field. two acknowledge front runners former vice president joe biden and democratic socialist senator bernie sanders. the president also watching from across the world as he prepares for a meeting with russian president vladimir putin very soon. we bring it all to you live around the globe in two hours of extent of fox news at night special coverage. team coverage now, standing by live from osaka, japan, monitoring of the g20 activities
9:01 pm
in his response weighing into tonight's debate. we kick off ed henry working the post at the spin room, ed. >> shannon, two big headlines everybody is talking about. first of all, the party we saw last night and we saw it again tonight two. again more candidates raising their hands saying they want to end private health care insurance and medicare for all. they want the government takeover of health care. the other big headline, of course he dramatic confrontation between kamala harris and the front runner joe biden. it is not rocking him but it buckled him on the issue of race on the issue of why he was opposed to bus cities in the 1960s. harris directed him and a flavor of what is happening in the spin room. we were told before the debate regardless of all that, joe biden himself would not be in the spin room spinning for himself but also would have aids here. they were here briefly in the beginning right after the debate ended at 11:00 p.m. eastern time.
9:02 pm
they tried to tell reporters it was a great night for joe biden. they felt good about his answers. not a lot of people buying that span in the spin room if you will. in private, democrats telling me a much different story. two political operatives i've known for a few years who have been through the debates told me a very desperate situation for joe biden. once i joe biden is presenting himself to the party into the nation has the safe choice in this race. this first stop would have told me, he did everything but be the safe choice tonight. the second operative told me he believes joe biden's career began to end tonight. that might be a little bit overdramatic because kamala harris herself was on another network saying she does not believe joe biden's career is done. and that he will still be in the race for a long time. we shall see. in the meantime, what i mentioned about the socialist tilt. i spoke to john hickenlooper the former governor of colorado, his party in california don't kill left because you will lose to donald trump. it doesn't sound like the party is listening.
9:03 pm
watch. >> what started in california continued here in florida. that you were telling your party, stay away from socialism. are they listening? >> i wouldn't say they are a wrap. but they are certainly listening. they recognize, you know, the medicare for all involves taking private insurance away from 180 million people. that is not going to work in america and i think most people realize that out. i just got to convince the candidates that they have to clearly separate themselves from being pinned into the corner of being socialist. >> but haven't they been in the corner? three big candidates kamala harris, elizabeth warren and bernie sanders want to end private -- health care so they don't seem to be listening. i have not persuaded them yet. >> has not persuaded them. very interesting because another key moment in this debate tonight, all of the candidates were asked raise your hand if you believe that illegal
9:04 pm
immigrants should get health benefits and every single democrat raise their hands as you heard president trump sort of reacting to that. his campaign put out a statement saying, in fact, they believe that donald trump won the second night in a row because of moments like that which they think in a general election will blow up on the democrats, shannon. >> shannon: okay coming henry in the spin room we will check with you in a moment. former vice president joe biden campaign manager tweeting this, they have their best online fund-raising hours since the rally in philadelphia last month. happy to be joined by the folks on stage tonight for the presidential run the democrat field. she was mixing it up tonight, kirsten gillibrand of new york >> thank you. it will reach your reaction from the trump campaign and what you were doing on stage tonight but they called their characters, night two a tour hour long infomercial for the donald trump reelection campaign.
9:05 pm
tripping over each other to stand out as the most elected, threatening government controlling every aspect of people's lives. what do you make of that characterization? >> kirsten: i think donald trump continues to sow division and hate throughout the country. he is really tearing apart the moral fabric of who we are. i'm running for president because i will restore what is important about this country. we are a vast and care about one another. tonight i had a chance to talk to the american people, especially american women about the assault by president trump and the fact that president trump and 30 legislatures around the country trying to repeal roe v. wade, making it hard for women to have access to basic health care to have human rights and rights to make decisions about when they are having children, how many they are having and under what circumstance spirits we got to talk to the american people directly about that. i have to tell you the american people don't agree with president trump. if he wants a war with american women, it will be a fight he will have and he will lose.
9:06 pm
>> shannon: and issue a top priority for you but what do you think of the new polling that shows even a majority of people that considers themselves to be pro-choice think that it should be limited to the first trimester and beyond that real concern. 70% of americans support roe v. wade. the settle out of the land for over 40 years that guarantees women the right to privacy. the right to make those fundamental decisions themselves, to have bodily autonomy and be able to decide when having kids and under what circumstances. to criminalize abortion, particularly with no regard for the life or well-being of the mother or whether it's because of rate or is outrageous. and that some of these legislatures are doing around the country. >> shannon: what do you think about second and third trimester abortion? we talk to the congressman before this but it's not as rare as some people might think according to numbers from the locker institute and aligned with planned parenthood. what do you make of that?
9:07 pm
people have grave concerns when you talk about the issue of third trimester. you can imagine finding someone in that situation but it happens. >> kirsten: i think it is red herring. people who are wanting to have their children, they are buying the bassinet, picked out the nursery. so when these things happen, it is the most severe circumstances where the woman's life is at grave risk. nobody wants to be in that situation. but the truth is, they should be a decision for women so that they know they can make those fundamental decisions. we also have a problem in this country with mortality. you would be surprised americans the worst in all of the countries when it comes to it. so forcing women to carry to full term conceived in rate or is an outrage. if they die in childbirth it is an outrage so we should be allowing women to make these decisions. we counted on that right to privacy for 40 years. for president trump to want to overturn it is just so out of step with the rest of the
9:08 pm
american people, it is just an all-out war on women. >> shannon: i think it has to be made by the woman. and always the ability to protect your life. 1 out of 4 women will have an abortion throughout their lifetime. for most women who have abortions, they are moms. so you have to give this decision to them. >> shannon: and we expected that this is something that will end up in the supreme court the next term or two. landing right in the middle of the presidential election next year. >> kirsten: it is president trump's goal to overturn roe vs. wade. and 70 percent do not agree with that. >> shannon: all right, we will continue to follow it. >> kirsten: thank you, thank you so much. >> shannon: fox news alert my president trump keeping an eye on the debate getting ready for a major diplomacy with the leaders of japan, china and russia and more. live from the g20 summit in osaka, japan, spin room with reactions for the democrats debate. hello, rich. >> high, shannon -- high matt,
9:09 pm
shannon, president trump acknowledge to catch a glimpse of domestic political ongoing's and what is happening in miami tonight. the president meeting with german chancellor angela merkel said the team to respond to that comment today and talked about the democratic debaters to raise their hand and support to provide government health coverage for undocumented immigrants. >> i just passed the television set on the way here. i saw that health care and maximum health care was given to 100% of the illegal immigrants coming into the country. the democrats come unfortunately discuss what to do with american citizens, that is not a good thing. >> rich: after that the president turned to the german chancellor and looking forward to spending time with her instead of watching the rest of the debate. the president also met with prime minister's from japan and india. scheduled to meet with
9:10 pm
president vladimir putin later on. the chinese president and the top trade negotiator supposed to meet ahead of those discussions as the united states and china in the middle of a massive trade fight with the threat to escalated further. the presidency -- president xi unilateral and protectionist measures as the u.s. enacted tan hundreds of billions of dollars of chinese imports and scheduled to hit the rest of china's u.s. imports with tariffs next month. the u.s. wants china to opens its markets and stop stealing america trade secrets. president trump said he's in no rush to do a deal with china. also says he's in no rush to do a deal with iran. he wants to negotiate with iran but until then the u.s. will continue sanctions against the country. iran's leaders threatened into negotiate an option but say they are on track to violate the terms of 20 -- the agreement and the u.s. withdrew from the 2016 deal a year and a half ago or a year and a couple months ago and
9:11 pm
started restoring sanctions against iran's economy and top exports particularly oil, shannon. >> shannon: rich head traveling with the president and japan, the g20 coverage which will continue, thank you very much rich. 2020 democrats to agree with president trump on the challenge from china but not the solution. >> the president has been right to push back on train up but done it completely the wrong way. we should realize the entire rest of the world. the russian or a global threat. we need to crack down on chinese trade relationship and the trade war is the wrong way to go. >> it is a serious one. this is not something to dismiss. look at what china is doing? they are using technology for the perfection of dictatorship. >> shannon: david and the former policy advisor to the obama campaign, senior advisor of the bush administration, welcome to you both.
9:12 pm
>> thank you. all right come i want to start with you, what did you make of the foreign policy discussion and it was not the number one topic but they certainly got to. speak to the primary thing with international borders, they are willing to live it basically illegal immigrants to give them free health care. but they turn to china with good comments including one you had from pete buttigieg that recognize china is a threat and perfected dictatorship. but nothing really serious. i mean, what has changed between donald trump's administration and all of its predecessors in the tariffs at the heart of it? the ability to use economic pressure as well as rebuilding the military to change the whole dynamic of the game? china has been a leader in that and frankly, washington has come a long way because of that. but to sort of complain the way he has done it, complaining for complaining sense. and it is sad these people cannot give credit to the president of the united states as he confronts the threat --
9:13 pm
critical threat to america. >> shannon: well, number of them tonight, david moore thought that russia was the bigger problem and we know the president is getting ready to sit down with their present at the g20. what do you make of the assessment which has been mocked when made by g.o.p. candidates in the past and may be the bigger danger right now. >> david: i think the democrats said that i have a good point. president trump is going into this g20 like a wrecking ball. he passed a number of the allies. he the leader of japan. he bashed merkel, the leader in germany but nothing negative about vladimir putin. so to make you worry about what will happen in his meeting with vladimir putin, he has not met with vladimir putin since them mueller report came out. the mueller report had a lot more details how rush interfered in the election. the president has been really soft on that, in fact, just recently he would still look at information opposition research that came from a foreign country. he wouldn't call the fbi. is he going to call out putin?
9:14 pm
is he going to warn putin not to interfere again? we should all hope democrats and republicans that you will do that and be much tougher on russia. another thing important about this meeting with putin, we are now in a very tense situation with iran. who is one of the biggest factors? russia. you need to press on iran to back off, to de-escalate and go back to a diplomatic portfolio where it will work toward some sort of nuclear weapons and go back into a nuclear agreement? perhaps a stronger agreement he can agree with but not go forward with nuclear weapons. >> shannon: welcome a christian, you heard tonight they were criticizing the president and withdrawing from the nuclear agreement with iran giving them a license to go rogue essentially now that they have said they will reach a level that will be very uncomfortable for much of the
9:15 pm
world within days, weeks potentially within a month. >> christian: all of our allies that matter are very much in favor of what the president did specifically across the middle east. all of our gross allies thought it was a bad deal. it was not denuclearizing iran but sanctified the irradiance nuclear program and said yes, you can have in her fusions, reactors and you don't need evee plutonium. to pay tribute to iran which iran has done many, many years and gotten away with various presidents. so the europeans are upset. they would like to do business with the regime but we have change the dynamics completely. >> shannon: all right. the conversation continues. the president talked about it again today and we will see how it goes at the g20, david and christian, thank you both. >> david: thanks. >> shannon: it was one of the biggest moments. what happen when the candidates asked if they supported the government paid health care and coverage for people who are in

[applause] >> raise your hand if you think it should be a civil matter rather than a crime to cross the border without documentation. can we keep the hands up so we can see them. >> shannon: okay, it looked unanimous when it came to the question of providing health care. government provided health care for people in the country illegally. and it was tough to tell whether it should be decriminalized, coming across the border. okay. let's talk about it with u.s. news david cat needs and katie, joining us with the biggest momf
9:21 pm
tonight's democratic presidential debate, welcome to you both, good to see you, shannon. >> shannon: i have to tell you all, you both chose the same moment at the highlights of we will play that now. you can weigh in with your perspective. >> i'm going to direct this to president biden. i do not believe you are a racist. and i agree with you when you commit yourself to the importance of finding common ground. i will tell you on the subject, it cannot be intellectual -- intellectual debate but we have to take it seriously and we have to act swiftly. >> my position across the board. >> shannon: okay, so this was one of those moments come a lot of emotion and passion. it is a tough subject. she was very direct, david, to go to the vice president about this issue. listen, let me talk about my civil rights record. this is a big moment. >> david: kamala harris came into the debate premeditated
9:22 pm
appeared she decided to take on the vice president which i think he was a little bit rattled about. i don't think he had a great, concise answer. and i think she won that exchange. because she went at it twice, actually. she brought up his comments, not praising desegregation or segregation senators, but say how he worked with them and how he liked that. and then she went at him directly, what about the bussing issue that you supported 40 years ago? she personalized it saying i was one of those kids on the bus. i think it was a big moment for her. a big moment for her campaign. we will see if voters agree in a week or two when the pulling comes out. >> shannon: katie, what about you? why did you choose that? >> katie: the first reason i chose that moment, the issue with joe biden's history on the topic has been the first time we have seen other candidates go after him specifically and directly. and i believe actually failed to nail bite into the wall on the issue but for kamala harris to
9:23 pm
bring it up tonight in a very personal fashion really had him on the ropes. he didn't do a very good job of explaining what the context was of that situation after stating that she was taking what you meant or what you did or his history. he could have said look i am endorsed by john lewis and another about other people who know my record. the question now is going to be kamala harris is trying to gain steam with voters including african-american voters who are supporting joe biden. now, whether they will buy her idea that he has a bad history on race because of the bussing issue is really what we will have to see when it comes to the polls. >> shannon: yeah, i mean, he has a long record plus or minus candidates but hear something a lot of old interviews and statements to be clarified. something where there was clarity tonight this issue all asked to raise their hand if they supported government funded health care coverage for people who are in the country illegally. everyone raised their hands.
9:24 pm
were you surprised at all, david? >> david: i was surprised that biden didn't raise his hand as well. he has saved off the push to the left that you see bernie sanders and elizabeth warren over the last two nights. they have been moving on. but i think it shows the rest of the party, the progressives and where the energy, i think biden is feeling the pressure. i think he's calculating and not sustainable to hold a positions that he held. whether it be race, obviously, or health care, immigration that he's had for 40 years. he is moving as well. a climate change plan that he didn't have five years ago, ten years ago more ambitious than president obama and biden is moving at the progressives are pushing him. >> shannon: capable of fact, the amendment but what did you think about the entire field raising their hand? >> katie: i don't know how democrats can reconcile wanting to eliminate the health, private health of 2 million americans
9:25 pm
with fruit -- trillions of dollars every year and then turn around and say they are fightinr the middle class, fighting for families who, by the way are having a very hard time affording their health insurance has a result of obamacare which is not health care. there is a big difference there. and then turning right around after shifting insurance -- taking insurance from americans and you are responsible for paying for 22 million illegal aliens who are here and there are health insurance cost and you cannot afford your own. that is something that benefits president trump. he talked about it. the one thing he tweeted about overseas. something americans will have a hard time swallowing when it comes to health care and health insurance at the top of their list of concerns and being told they are now going to have to pay for millions of people to be on that plan when they are not in the country. >> shannon: katie, i know your entire lowlight discussion was about immigration, the border,
9:26 pm
and the payment to the government for health care. david, for you, it was, i think the bath -- back and forth between perks while well and passing the torch. i understand there is an email out selling t-shirts and so he was going to use this phrase to make it go viral and there is a t-shirt for sale. >> david: they do debate trap and deploy certain places but i think it comes off to canned and two corny people laugh and you are sitting in the press area. he kept saying pass the torch, pass the torch and the media a little bit hokey and biden smiled and said, you know i'm holding the torch and swatted him away. but look a marginal canada all the way at the end of the stage, you need to figure out a way to make the headlines, make the news and i think it failed. >> shannon: it's trending. >> david: i know it's trending. >> shannon: katie, what did you make about, listen one-liners from a number of
9:27 pm
candidates and of course, they have to print some of that stuff. >> katie: i don't think eric swalwell is the best example of who they should be passing the torch too. one thing that biden has been able to do is draw on his experience and say i'm the adult in the room. i work on a number of issues throughout the years. you can trust me to do these things that i've been doing in washington and four years. i would say if pete buttigieg said it is time to pass the torch, it would be taken more seriously but eric swalwell saying it and then corny line, well i'm not changing diapers. i'm changing washington. he's not changing washington. he's not passing legislation. it was a little too much and it was not coming from a serious candidate. >> shannon: we would like a little corn in our debate and it always makes things interesting. as do you all. david and katie thank you for being with us tonight. >> david: thanks, shannon. >> shannon: and the spin room ed henry with surprise guest. plus the unique analysis on the field. we will be back right after th

9:33 pm
person and what is this person really all about. by the time they get to the other side of this process, then it will be a specific donald trump versus a specific democratic nominee and the numbers will look different at that point. >> shannon: you and i had many times on the political nights broken down to the social media data that we get. it is fun when twitter and google send out these kind of things. the information we are getting tonight on google talking about google trend about questions, the various candidates for both bernie sanders and vice president joe biden, they say the question was, how old is bernie sanders? how old is joe biden? pete buttigieg, how to print in it -- pronounce buddha judge, we mastered it i think but the number to think how old is he. interesting in all of these searches people looking to the age of the candidates in a really broad span in the field. >> chris: for decades, for decades is quite a span between joe biden and pete buttigieg but unfortunately for joe biden, the

knock on him going into tonight and now very much coming out of tonight is, is he young enough? is he is bright enough to be in the kind of her clan struggle that he's going to the end with donald trump and that he would be in the donald trump as the democratic nominee? kamala harris went there and not only dated him in time talking about where he was in the 1970s, she was a 5-year-old girl who said benefited from forest busing whereas joe biden was in the senate fighting against it. and she placed him in time and he did not look like he was on his a-game. he has to come back in the next round of game and shall be has fingertips. >> shannon: okay. speaking of senator harris, another bit of information up on the screen with google, who were the most search candidates in the debate tonight? number one marianne williamson. >> chris: [laughter] >> shannon: buddha -- who is this? she's in the top three,

9:41 pm
progressive plans for 2020 and beyond. joining us to talk about the economic part of the debate fox news contributor and rnc committee from california harmeet dhillon, welcome tonight on night 2. >> thanks, shannon. i want to start with you. a number of candidates tonight say this administration will point to great numbers, unemployment, the stock market but most people don't own stock so unemployment down, it is because people are holding two or three jobs. that is the criticism but the president can talk about the economy working all day long but in real life people go to the voting booth. they aren't feeling it. what do you think? >> harmeet: i think it was very disappointing for the debate moderator allowed those types of shallow platitudes that are frankly falls to go unchallenged with no follow-up questions. the reality, shannon, unemployment the lowest in my entire lifetime and that goes across every specter of every
9:42 pm
demographic in our society. on top of that, the polls that stocks don't matter to the average american is ludicrous. most americans that have a job or investing 401(k) or retirement were even work for a company, the stock value of those companies and the stock value of the retirement assets absolutely matter. to deny that is ludicrous. the other unexamined issue that none of these democrats and none of the moderators talk about is the depressing effect on wages of illegal immigration in the country which would affect the stagnant wages bernie sanders never talked about. that is an issue we need to look at but from all of those perspectives, not just the one the democrats with three jury distribution to bankrupt this country, shannon. >> shannon: and a lot, we know to talk about almost everybody move to government single-payer health care. there are other issues about the economy. fundamental restructuring senator elizabeth warren talked about last night. the trump campaign responded we
9:43 pm
love both nights of the debate. if president trump infomercial for his election because he said advocating for government control of everything. and such policy the american does not want that. how do you respond? >> i think democrats, last night and tonight tried to make a case that the economy isn't working for everybody. that unfettered capitalism is not helping everybody. now, the debate within the democratic party between, you know, what degree of capitalism is okay is going to play out over the course of the campaign. but to have democrats come out there and say, not everybody is feeling the benefit here. not everyone, whether it is because of wages or whether it is because of the president's trade wars. i mean, the number of candidates out there that have an opportunity to go to the soybean farmer in iowa and say, is this what you signed up for?
9:44 pm
that is sort of where the democratic message is going to be if the last two nights were any indication. the president will depend his economy robustly, but i do think democrats have an opportunity to go into industrial midwest states. to go into the farm communities and say, yeah, the economy is improving. it's just not improving for everyone. we can do better. >> shannon: okay, and to this point. >> harmeet: shannon, can i respond to that? >> shannon: sure. >> harmeet: i was going to say a lot of the people on the stage have been in power for many generations in the country. joe biden has been in power for more than i have been a life. in all of those years, they have been neglecting what moe is mentioning so to come back and say, we have solutions for you, those people who voted for donald trump because democrats have neglected them so it is too late to start talking about socialism as a sort of fix for their failures.
9:45 pm
>> shannon: >> mo: i don't think a lot of them are peddling socialism. you have bernie sanders running as a democratic socialist period. i think democrats miss an opportunity in 2016 to go into the communities and make a proactive case, but for a lot of the voters in those states, the states that donald trump when in and worked and took those votes away from democrats, democrats are saying, we get your frustration, but he hasn't lived up to the promise he made. that is what you will hear them i think try to make. elizabeth warren sort of laid that foundation last night. and so you see other candidates sort of run with that as well. he promised he would do it differently and he just has not yet. in fact, for some making it worst. we will see if that sticks, but i think that is the core. >> shannon: harmeet, you heard about the fact that for farmers and people out there important to the president support and now

he hopes reelection, when you talk about tariffs and the foreign trade policy issues we are having, they think they will be able to leverage that because they don't think it is good for those people. those people are feel four -- fearful and can plan ahead with the planting of crops and sorts. so how does the president pushed back and can he do that effectively? >> mo: i >> harmeet: if you look for those people this weekt might be an issue but actually e tariffs a threatened attack and are not likely to have an impact by the time of the election because they will be so many other issues to replace them and those specific people. i think china coming to the table on a lot of these issues already as a result of the threats. of course, we have seen canada, mexico come to the table and renegotiate as a result of america's first policies. and so i can't look at one element of the electorate. you have to look at the overall economy. how is it affecting all americans as the president putting america first come american jobs first from american opportunity first.
9:47 pm
i think most americans are looking at that and saying yes, i'm doing better. the health care problem is a huge issue and i agree we need to look at that. that is a big economic non-americans. i don't think most americans like kamala harris and bernie sanders peddling on the stage today that they will have zero choice now. we will criminalize and illuminate your right to be able to go and get private health care anywhere. that is not american. and some of the democrats pushing back on theft, but those are not the ones you will see running against donald trump. i guarantee that. >> shannon: well, there is definitely frustration over the health care issue and some people looking from one or both sides of the aisle. the american people are listening on that issue. let's see what they think about what was presented tonight, moe and harmeet inc. of ripping up super late for us from the west coast. thank you very much. we will head back to the spin room with ed henry when we come back. ♪ just one free hearing test at

>> shannon: all right, chief national correspondent ed henry has been roaming the spin room the last couple of nights to get a candidate surrogate, he helps to wrap up the show tonight. i love it. >> i heard you in my ear, i was listening, you are having fun with marianne williamson, she sort of came out of nowhere and has been tried egg.
9:52 pm
you mentioned she is number one. >> shannon: one of the top searches on google tonight. >> go find out what she thinks, no idea. i showed it to the campaign manager. >> shannon: you broke the news! >> they had no idea, tells you kind of a shoestring campaign. she was trending because she was asked what would you do on day one, she said she would call the but leader of new zealand. it said we are going to have our kids grow up to be the best in the world. i want america to be the best, so i replied, you mean you want to make america great again? >> shannon: you didn't. >> your being cute. guess what, mary williamson, she is on the left, but basically gave the slogan of donald trump you're talking to people from the trump campaign tonight, they are excited about these two nights. laid out all kinds of plans on the left wing, if you will, and whoever emerges from all of this down the road, they think will be wounded and they think will give all kinds of fodder to the incumbent. >> shannon: their reaction to the campaign, called it a two

hour infomercial for the president trump reelection campaign. they feel good about it. folks are so far left, this is not middle america, this is not what you want. to get serious on some of these issues, we didn't think it was the vice president's best night. we knew he was going to be the number one target coming and peered i didn't think it was a complete disaster, but you are hearing from people who really thought it was a rough night. >> i talked to some democratic strategists in the spin room, surprised he didn't have a better answer on the bus in question, something it's been out there since the 1970s. >> shannon: right. >> he's run for president three times before, it's come up before peered recently, it's gotten a new look. here you are with a woman of color next door, two podiums over, i guess, and he should have been ready for that. he's not done, let's not exaggerate, it's still early in the race. on the other hand, when you're the front runner, it kind of shaky peer the fact that joe biden didn't come in here to even try to clean it up or try to tell his side of the story is
9:54 pm
interesting. >> shannon: let me ask you, a phenomenal fund-raising night for them, of course, he is out there because he hasn't been on the campaign trail as much as other people. with the plan for him not to come here in the spin room -- because i feel like, beforehand they were saying -- >> he may have had a good fund-raising night. i smile as you ask the question because that is what we see in a lot of campaigns. they have a rough night, great fund-raising, they tried to tell you the good side of the story for that is what campaigns are supposed to do. but i would say, hang on a second, he is supposed to be the front runner. he's run two times before, he was barack obama's wing man, so he should be dominating. again, only the first debate for him this time around, there will be more debates, we've got more this summer and into the fall. he is going to have to get moving here, because he also -- kamala harris, by raising this issue, shows the difficult history on race, but at the same time, not so subtly raised the age issue.
9:55 pm
because you sing on this little girl on a bus -- >> shannon: exactly, is a contrast. >> a contrast on age, as well. >> shannon: we talked about that tonight, from pete buttigieg to the upper end with bernie sanders and joe biden, the question most googled about these guys were there ages. yet eric swalwell, the congressman also saying it is time to pass the torch, that was his thing, he got it on a teacher that came from his campaign afterwards. clearly planning to talk about it. but there are a couple of different generations of this party on the stage together now. >> and there are people online tonight, talk about what is trending, what are they saying on social media? eric swalwell, you are right, started that whole talk, let's pass the torch. joe biden said no, i got the torch in my hand, and they're saying, may be at kamala harris tried to take that torch. let's not exaggerate, joe biden has time to fix this, but kamala harris got a hold and look across the nation, especially within the democratic party, introduced
