11:00 pm
♪ ♪ >> laura: i'm laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from charleston, south carolina, tonight on the eve of the democratic primary. now, we are coming to you live from the historic palmettogr brewery, the oldest brewery in the state. of course were coming for the beer. is there politics involved? yes. charleston is absolutely hopping tonight. the president just mapped a massive rally at the coliseum a few miles from here and just to give you an idea about how passionate the crowd was, folks were barbecuing. i kid you not, they brought their own barbecues, at 4:00 a.m. this morning. that is the kind of excitement and enthusiasm that the democrats are trying to emulate, to try to get going in their own
11:01 pm
party for tomorrow's primary. throughout the hour we are going to be talking to some of our favorite analysts, south carolina voters, and those who know the state best. along the way we are going to show you our own interactions with the voters today, including from fox news own gianno caldwell who is on the other side of the state at joe biden's rally tonight. as for joe, the former vice president seems poised to win based on the latest polls.s. he's up about 12 points in the real clear politics average. you might remember, i told you this last night, those most invested in the biden blowouts tomorrow are the democrats in the media establishment. they see sanders as a threat and they hope before can pull out a comeback move and catapult himself and his campaign ahead for the super tuesday contests that are coming right down the pike. biden himself thinks a victory tomorrow might wrap up the whole thing for him.
11:02 pm
>> so many others who have supported me, you send me out of here with the victory that is significant, then i think i'm going to be the next nominee of the united states. >> laura: albright, barack obama's upset victory here over hillary clinton in 2008 was his springboard to the nomination but does biden really have the obama magic? one word, no. even if biden does win make tomorrow, he still has major problems and i'm going to talk about them tonight, walk you through this right now. s m here's the first problem, his continuous stream of gaffes andf just bizarre statements. it seems to be getting worse and not better. just listen to some of what he said just in the last 24 hours. >> i'm looking forward to appointing the first african-american woman to the united states senate. >> china doesn't have enough water.o water. the idea, the idea that they are our competition, that they are going to beat us is bizarre.
11:03 pm
>> if someone in this room got up, took off all their clothes and walked out the door, no man has a right to touch her. >> laura: number two, his campaign is quickly running out of cash and big donors are holding back. that suggests a much bigger problem, as former obama era official van jones pointed out. >> there is a weakness in the biden campaign that is obvious. it's not just a weakness in the candidate. a former vice president, two term vice president, obama the guy should be just sucking and money. he is broke. that shows a lack of enthusiasm, not just at the grassroots level, where he needed that, but also at the top. >> laura: van jones himself seems bored, doesn't he? and three, third problem, one-third of the democrat delegates are awarded and that doesn't look good for biden, okay. in california he is going to get
11:04 pm
his clock cleaned by bernie who is up, on average, today it was about 17 points in the latest polls. meanwhile, biden is pullingn under 15% in the state. that means he might not even meet the viability threshold to get any delegates, because that is how many are in california. it's a huge treasure trove. the last three polls out of texas have bernie leading in biden thought at some point was going to be his firewall. it's just not adding up here that doesn't even take into account commanding leads that bernie has in massachusetts, wisconsin, and utah, states that will also be voting on super tuesday.di even if biden wins tomorrow, how can the democrat establishment deny bernie the nomination if this is what the landscape remains after today, after tomorrow? joining me now is chris bedford, senior editor at "the federalist" and vice chair of the young american
11:05 pm
foundation. he's been following theni democrats around south carolina for the last few days. also with me is a g.o.p. chairman, a man who knows the ins and outs of the state better than most. barring of an epic collapse, he seems to be assured of a victory but of appearances on the trail, it's actually kind of sad. if got to say. personally, have always liked biden. he's actually kind of a lovable personality. i've always really liked him. >> his extremely lovable. >> laura: but it's almost like someone needs to stop him. >> it's time for the early voting corralled dinner. joe biden is an extremely likable person. he has a lot of history, but it's been clear he probably should retire for some time. what he could get tomorrow, which would be a big win for him, potentially, if he actually just get a bige win. ten points or more points that he can carry and because the
11:06 pm
worst thing for any candidate, even worse than this lack of money is the stink of loser. and if people think you're a loser, they're not going to back you no matter what, especially in the super tuesday states. if he does well he can stay in this race and "the new york times" reporters are actually showing the democratic party is willing to break their own party to stop the superdelegates from making bernie the nominee. if he can make it to the conventional alive, he has a chance at being the nominee. >> laura: true. he has to bend over backwards to try to reassure voters that he has fire in his belly. watch. >> what is your fire? because you see bernie, you see elizabeth warren, you see that fire. that's what i'm looking for. what is your fire? >> decency and honor. the fact that i'm not screaming like bernie and waving my arms, look elizabeth, is not a lack of fire.
11:07 pm
>> laura: all right, is that -- >> kind of reminds me of that interview that ted kennedy did with roger mudd years ago where he can explain right off-the-cuff why he wanted to be president. he couldn't answer that question. like, why is he actually running? other than to stop bernie or to save the establishment. there's people that aren't really excited about supporting his campaign and his problem here is whether he wins here or not, when you leave here you're going to states where he doesn't have much organization, he has to spend money. bloomberg has dropped half a billion dollars in 20 states so what are they going to do even if he wins or? wins by ten, or by five, whatever it may be. they've a structural problem over the long term and that is proportional delegate allocation in all states and it took how long for hillary to put bernie away last time in the two person race and how you're talking about three, four, five people from the convention? they've got a math problem and then you get to the superdelegates, what are they going to do?ki half of those guys are elected
11:08 pm
officials, they don't want to run with bernie on top of the ticket so they take it away from him, and either way, heads we win, tales they lose. >> laura: congressman clyburn is incredibly popular, significant figure in this state for all the reasons we've discussed before on this show. he soaping his endorsement will get biden the momentum going all the way to texas is what he said. >> we're trying to create a surge here. 14 states voting next tuesday and we would like to see him go into those 14 states, a big boat out of south carolina, it would signal to the people of texas that joe biden is in fact surging. >> laura: jim clyburn doesn't even seem excited about biden and he is the biggest endorsee that he has.rn >> my big question is why is an
11:09 pm
congressman clyburn here? why isn't he here to speak on behalf of him? why are there local officials and hollywood movie stars there to try to pump up the crowd because joe biden is not really pumping up the crowd. why isn't he down there stumping for the guy who he thinks is the future of the democratic party? democratic candidates are really worried. bernie sanders has a chance to go for a nationally and donald trump. they will sacrifice their party not to have bernie sanders. >> laura: they will sacrifice the next four years to stop him. that is how important they think stopping bernie sanders is, if they have to lose to trump it's better than losing the whole party. am i saying that correctly? >> it's telling that this endorsement comes just four days before the primary. why wasn't he on the trail with biden two months ago? >> laura: desperation. by the way, bernie sanders was not happy about the president being here tonight, check it out. >> turns out donald trump's in
11:10 pm
charleston today. he is here in south carolina. he doesn't even have any opposition in the republican party. why is he here? he is here to try to disrupt the democratic primary! how pathetic and how petty can you be? >> laura: apparently, the president is not allowed to travel. they don't want him to travel to south carolina, state he's goino to win, by the way. >> the fact south carolina is the last stop for all the media is in one state for a solid wee, so why wouldn't the president come here to get his message out? he had a winning message in 2016 and a winning message now in a record to go along with it to advertise it. >> laura: it reminds me that they don't want him to travel to california, he can't go to california because they're goins to have riots, he can't go to chicago, they threatened violence last time last election, and now they don't want him to come to south carolina. nice try.o >> south carolina want him here. he is popular. >> laura: thank you so muchh
11:11 pm
for being here tonight. the beer is on me. thanks so much and as i mentioned many times before on this show, democrats are heading down a dangerous road this election cycle. one that many of them don't want to go down. they are on the highway to socialism and a lot of people are asking how did we actually get here? i posed that question to some of the folks in the charleston area earlier today. >> laura: we are here in charleston, south carolina, where frankly there are a lot of tourists. spectacularly beautiful, little chilly, but were trying to find out why socialism is making inroads into our public consciousness, our thinking. a why is it becoming more popular? what about socialism? everybody want socialism in america. do you want socialism? >> no, but my kids do because they are broke and they keep asking me for more money. >> laura: but they went to college. >> my kids are voting for bernie. >> i think socialism is great possibly in theory. >> laura: you are worried about socialism coming more
11:12 pm
popular? >> i am because the campuses are more liberal. i own my own business so it's all about capitalism from. >> laura: bernie sanders is on the rise, 78-year-old guy, heart attack but so what? >> i do think its is going to come down to bernie sanders and trump. bernie sanders is a very smart man. he knows exactly what he's doing. >> laura: what did bernie sanders not get right? what do you think the push for socialism is hurting him? >> yes, that word is definitely going to push a few people out. >> laura: let's find some angry socialists. he's going to win it big.. >> laura: by the way, the bike messenger, taxi driver, whatever you call him, he was awesome and i am pretty sure that he is a trump supporter. and he thinks the economy is great. that was the most fun part. despite suggestions from some of the folks that you just heardd that the general election will
11:13 pm
be sanders versus trump, joe biden and the never bernierd democrats see south carolina as the decisive 2020 primary contest. they may have a point. according to "the washington post," since first becoming a binding primary, the state has become a bellwether for important constituencies. southern african-american voters. on top of that, the eventual democratic nominee has won the primary every election year with the exception of '88 and 2004. joining me now is political science professor at the college of charleston and author of "first in the south." and jamie lovegrove, political reporter at "the post." will south carolina's reputation of clarifying things the democrats be intact after" this? >> is going to be tough. 2004 they supported john edwards. he ended up getting beaten by john kerry in the end. this is a crowded field so i think they could give some life
11:14 pm
to biden. may be biden will fight to be the alternative to bernie sanders, but this is a lot more multiyear than in previous years. >> laura: would you have predicted that it was going to be, this, four years ago after hillary obviously stumbled to defeat -- >> no, if you had told me for a while, bernie sanders had a chance to win the south carolina primary, that would've blown my- mind. but he got 25% last time.so it really blown out by hillary clinton but because there are so many candidates and because he's done a good job ofn keeping his supporters loyal to him, you win 20%, that looks pretty good.jo >> laura: he's an an amazing retail politician. young kids love him, he spent a lot of times on college campuse' networking. when you look at the landscape here, this is a state unlike any other state in the country. every state is unique but thispe is a very different democrat party in this state. much more moderate. it really isn't in many ways a bellwether of what is coming down the pike, but bernie is
11:15 pm
still holding up so far. >> if it's bellwether of anything it is of southern states and that is obviously not the whole country but if you look to some of our neighbors, georgia and north carolina and some other states on super tuesday, alabama and virginia, it might be indicative of what we will see there but certainly south carolinians and south carolina democrats, both parties pride themselves on the fact that they are independent thinkers, and they like to go their own way. i don't think there is any state other than probably delaware where joe biden has a stronger relationship with democrats and they are poised. >> laura: there's a lot of excitement today. a lot of them want to get rid of trump and i keep telling them that is not going to happen but you can have fun tomorrow. anyway, bernie's campaign guy tried to explain why bernie left the state early. t watch. >> where is your senator going to be tomorrow? in south carolina or some other state? >> he's in some other states tomorrow, massachusetts and he will finish in vermont.
11:16 pm
>> are you assuming he's not going to do well in south carolina?, >> not at all. we typically do this, after the first few states have moved on. >> laura: thoughts? >> i think he has seen some polling and it doesn't look particularly -- why waste the time here to think biden will probably get a victory, but is it going to actually be a springboard or a dead cat bounce where he wins here and then bloomberg has so much money and bernie does well, and not as much money. >> laura: it's interesting to see the generational divide in the democrat party, and it's interesting, and msnbc moment, talking about african-american voters about, who are they going to vote for versus his parents. watch. >> my parents live in south carolina. >> are they going to vote tomorrow? >> yes, they are. >> they were more biden in the beginning but they weren't really following.
11:17 pm
they just know biden and obama. i kind of had to pull them along, tug them along. >> do you know who they are voting for tomorrow? >> yes, i do. >> laura: he convinced his parents to go for bernie sanders. but we talked to folks today, i saw that divide over and over and over again. >> congressman clyburn is over there for biden and his grandson works for pete buttigieg. there is a generational divide, intimately in the african-american community as well. >> laura: but also president obama, that is a driving force here. >> there was an older african-american voter i talked to who viewed the symbolism of biden, a white establishment politician standing behind a black president for eight years loyally -- >> laura: low realism goes back.de >> absolutely, they remember joe biden coming down here with fritz holling.
11:18 pm
>> laura: oh, my gosh, you're really going back in time. >> they have these memories. the older voters are much moreee worried than the younger voters of a repeat of 1972. b >> laura: oh, they remember. >> they view bernie sanders as essentially a landslide defeat candidate, so there a lot more worried about the younger voters wanting inspiration. >> laura: a number said it would be considered for them a repudiation of obama, which they don't want to say. fascinating, i cannot wait to see how this plays out. thank you so much. faced with a fourth or fifth place finish tomorrow, elizabeth warren is backtracking on a major campaign promise that can't be happening. we expose the latest and then we will speak with some actual warren supporters on the ground here on whether they care. stay tuned. >> my message to bernie is it's time to wrap it up, buddy. you're wasting a lot of people's time and money. ♪ tv just keeps getting better.

♪ >> laura: elizabeth warren likes to frame herself as a champion of the people, especially the little people. someone they can trust, someone of impeccable character really. and to prove just how pure of heart she is, warren built her campaign around a solemn promise. >> i'm not taking a dime of pac money in this campaign. >> i don't take corporate money. shoot, i don't take pac money of any kind. >> i'm not cozying up to super pacs. >> if you really want to live where you say, then put your money where your mouth is and say no to the pacs. >> laura: but something has happened since warren said that last part just three weeks ago. she's losing, faced with more
11:24 pm
humiliating defeats, including a possible fifth place finish tomorrow, that can't be, can it? warren is now shamelessly backtracking. >> if all the candidates want to get rid of super pacs, count me in. i will lead the charge, but that is how it has to be. it can't be the case that a bunch of people keep them and only one or two don't. >> laura: joining me now is the publisher of "the federalist" and charlie hurt, "washington times" opinion editor and fox news contributor. all right, ben, this is the latest in a long line fromio warren. a super pac message. >> honestly, everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face and she has been punched in the face in this election over and over again. disappointing over and over again. >> laura: she was good in the last debate, she did her duty in going after bloomberg. >> yes, she did, and in this situation she's making a calculated decision. this is the only way that she
11:25 pm
can still have a shot in the long term. it just requires her to totally give up on all the things she said were so central to her appeal all along. i'm authentic, i'm not going to do these deals with the rich guys, i'm someone you can believe in and that's not the case.. >> laura: i almost believe her when i heard those statements, the tremor in her voice, i just really want to believe anything she says. maybe she just had a bad day, i can't really get my, this is like a john kerry epic flip-flop. >> i don't think this is just a bad day but i love that clip you just played of her saying, everyone else wants to get on board, i will be glad to lead the effort. that is exactly thean definition of what a leader is not. a leader is not someone who says hey, as long as everyone does what i say, that i will lead the way. that is not how it works.
11:26 pm
elizabeth warren will literally say anything it takes to get elected, or whatever she thinks it will take to get elected. but to me, the most interesting thing about all of this is tohi look at the amount of money that this new super pac is pouring into her campaign, this dark money that she and a lot of democrats say are the problem, the root problem with politics today. the fact that they are willingsa to pour this much money into her campaign says two things. one, it says how terrified these big money establishment democrats are of bernie sanders. and it also says how comfortable they are with someone like elizabeth warren sticking up for their interest in protecting the status quo for democrats. >> laura: that you were saying during the break, reminding me that you are from here, and you come back home, like welcome back. >> i grew up in north charleston, i came back here,
11:27 pm
actually went and visited with a very nice gentleman who lives in my family home here. he's actually leaning towards pete. >> laura: pete buttigieg? >> yes, because he is 73 and he thinks he's too old to be president so he thinks biden is too old to be president but i've got to tell you, the real lesson we are going to get tomorrow is they do not like the brand of extremism that they see from this democratic party from bernie sanders and to a degree from elizabeth warren as well. they want a democratic party that is actually going to reach out to moderate voters and they're worried that by going too far left, having too much extremism, they're going to end up losing to donald trump. >> laura: charlie, there's another moment from the cnn town hall when elizabeth warren tried to use the coronavirus to prove her liberal progressive authentic bona fides. check it out. >> i'm going to be introducing a
11:28 pm
plan tomorrow to take every dime that the president is now spending on his racist wall at our southern border and diverted to work on the coronavirus. [applause] >> laura: charlie, the racist wall, the coronavirus. any of that work?? >> she's not only completely out of touch with regular americans, she's out of touch with the very democratic voters that hillary clinton lost in the last election and went and supported donald trump.. and that's why she's going to finish fourth or fifth tomorrow, and the fact that joe biden still stands a chance at winning south carolina, coming in first in south carolina, even if he came in second it would be amazing considering the number of gaffes and all the trouble he has had so far, but it just underscores how deeply dissatisfied most rank-and-file democrat voters are with the current field.
11:29 pm
they don't like the socialism, and these other people that are just -- >> laura: its power to the people, come on.li part of the people in south carolina. all right, gentlemen. it's great to have you both on. after the show was over, hang out with us behind us. so what to voters in south carolina thank of liz warren? do they think it's time for her to go? stay? here's what some of them told me earlier. >> laura: a lot of people are saying that elizabeth warren should drop out.th most recent polls show that she can even win her home state. why do you think she is staying in it? >> because she likes to annoy people. all she is is annoying people when she talks. sorry, elizabeth, it's time to hang it up. >> laura: is she pulling both from bernie sanders at this point? any thought about whether she should stay or go? >> i think she should stay because i think a lot of people are on the fence between her and
11:30 pm
bernie but the woman edge could put her over with female voters. >> laura: what about warren's own? are they worried about where she is now? a good debate performance customer quote about these poll numbers. are they actually that she's gone back on that promise not to take pac money. it joined me, two warrens supporters. all right, does warren's flip-flopping bother you enough to maybe re-examine your support? >> in my opinion what i've seen is that no candidate has really truly stuck with not taking endorsements from super pacs. >> laura: not just endorsements, taking money. >> you're right, but -- >> laura: i tell you, i was almost believe in her. she seemed really sincere in what she said about, i'm not going to take it and the other people taking it are corrupt. >> she has even asked the super pac to release the specific donors that have contributed anh i think it is a very difficult
11:31 pm
situation where, as our president currently has said, wanting to drain the swamp, getting the money and the politicians who are corrupt -- >> laura: she backtracks. i mean, your buddy backtracks with you on a promise, that's not such a good buddy anymore on a promise that big. that is a big one for her. it's not a small one. it's not a policy, that was central to her appeal but it doesn't change your support. p p >> it doesn't change my support because she still wants to pass bills and laws that are going to get money out of politics. >> laura: but she has to spend it first. >> but the system hasn't changed.d. >> laura: barbara, her poll numbers in her home state, here is where they are. in massachusetts, bernie is at 25%, elizabeth warren is at 17%, biden is at 9% in massachusetts. if you can't win your home state, where are you staying in this race? it just ends up fracturing the party more.
11:32 pm
>> i'm really not that impressed with poll numbers. i have been voting for 50 years and the whole time, not one time have i ever been polled on who i'm going to vote for. >> laura: so you don't believe any poll? >> i don't believe any poll. >> laura: well, they certainly weren't accurate last time. >> we will have to wait and see. when i go to vote tomorrow, and i will be voting for elizabeth, and i've told her that. >> laura: did you do a selfie with her? >> oh, sure. several. i actually had several good conversations with her too.ou >> laura: you think she is authentic? that she is a true progressive? >> yes.ua >> laura: how do you compare her to bernie? he's a democratic socialist and she doesn't call herself that. >> i don't like labels. i like people that actually accomplish things.e and as i was telling someone the other day, i don't like the idea of someone having a platform. platform is a big, wide word.
11:33 pm
>> laura: i'm just curious, how do you judge people? you don't like platforms or positions, flip flopping doesn't matter, so what does matter? >> having specific policy. my background is in public policy. i like policy, i like ideas of how you are going to accomplish things, having ways in specific things and that is one thing i like about elizabeth. >> laura: what about college kids? they are going to go for bernie, the college kids love bernie. they love him, think it is just hilarious. >> people want change,e regardless of bernie or any other candidate. when it comes down to the young voters, what they want is to see someone other than trump take the white house. >> laura: so that is the governing philosophy other than trump? >> i think overall, that is whah matters to voters. >> laura: thank you both for being here tonight. and kyle and barbara give us their point of view but we'ves. got a lot more to get to. coming up, is the coronavirus being overhyped to hurt trump?
