get our special tv offer a 4-week trial plus postage and a digital scale go to stamps.com/tv and never go to the post office again! good morning, everybody. i'm yasmin vossoughian in new york and i'm jeff bennett in washington. it is 5:00 in the east, 2:00 in the west. the first debate. the major take aways. >> yes, i'm with bernie on medicare for all. >> if you did your homework on this. >> we just have to be engaged. as a soldier, that answer is

unacceptable. >> we must fight for both. >> fact checking and the expectations for the first night. the economy, health care and the climate change. former second of housing and urban development referenced the heartbreaking photo of an immigrant faerjd his daughter who drowned. >> watching that image of oscar and his daughter is heartbreaking. it should also miss us all off. if i were president today -- and it should spur us into action. if i were president today, i would sign an order that would

end trump's zero tolerance policy, the stay in mexico policy and the other policies. >> and sending aid to countries where asylum seekers are seeking aid. >> we need to address the issues that made oscar and valaria come in the first place. we need to solve this problem. we cannot surrender our values and think we will get border security. we will actually lose security and our values. we must fight for both. >> and on the economy, the candidates underlined lingering inequalitities. >> you've got a government great for those with within that isn't

great for everyone else. that is corruption. we need to call it out and attack it head on and make structural change in our government and our economy and country. >> donald trump just sits in the white house and gloats about what is going on when you are having so many people having trouble affording college and premiums. >> i live in a low income black and brown community. i see every day this economy is not working for average americans. >> what is missing is courage. courage in washington to take on the giants. that is part of the corruption in this system. >> i would do several things. pass the equal rights amendment finally in this country and pursue legislation so that women are paid equal pay for equal work in this country. >> and on health care, senator elizabeth warren crystallized

the position that she'd abolish the role of private insurance. only mayor deblazio would also do so. >> yes. i'm for medicare for all. i'll tell you why. i have studied why families go broke. the number one reason is the cost of health care, medical bills. that's not just for people who don't have insurance. it is for people who have insurance. a lot of people who say it is not possible. we can't do it. they have a lot of reason. they just won't fight for it. it is a basic human rights. >> others on that stage strongly disagreed. >> no. i think the choice is fundamental to our ability to get everybody cared for. >> private insurance is not working for tens of millions of

americans when you talk about the co-pays, deductible. it is not working. >> we should give everyone here health care and the option of private insurance. going now to miami to the home of the first debate. what are some of your take aways so far? >> a great number of these candidates and the washington state governor. one individual made a splash. that was hjulian castro.

it was the past few years that o'rourke had attention out of texas. it was last night, particular exchange with his fellow texan that really caught the eyes and ears of that debate. here is part of that. >> some of us on that stage have called to end that section, terminated. some like congressman o'rourke have not. i think it is a mistake beto. if you truly want to change the system, we have to repeal that section. >> thank you. let me respond to this. as a member of congress, i leped to introduce legislation to make sure we don't criminalize -- if you are fleeing, you are talking

one part of this. >> that's not true. if you did your homework on this. >> reporter: that was about the most contentious part of the debate last night. to clarify, what castro was calling for is a repeal of section 1325 of immigration law. this is part of immigration law that allows the federal government to prosecute those that cross the country illegally. what beto o'rourke is contending is that there should be a mechanism when it comes to human traffickers or drug smugglers in which the government can prosecute these offenders. castro says this should be burr purely going through the immigration system. this is night number one, we should expect more from night number two.

>> i'm happy you brought up amy because she backed up beto and castro didn't attack her the same way. it seemed he took that stage knowing his enemy number one going after beto. both being texans. thank you so much. >> you had senator amy klobuchar who fact checked the subject of reproductive rights. >> yes. it is interesting because you don't just have the candidates needing to layout their stance and introduce themselves. they are using these questions as an opportunity to layout their credentials. we saw that with jay inslee.

he did open the door for amy klobuchar to offer a little bio as well. let's take a listen. >> i am the only candidate here who has passed a law protecting a woman's right of reproductive health in health insurance and the only candidate who has passed a public option. i respect every goal and plan here. >> there are three women up here that have fought pretty hard for a woman's right to choose. >> a bit of history. >> three women candidates for the first time. we'll see it again tonight. of course, abortion issues has brought up a lot of attention. and one that has tripped up joe

biden. >> joining us now, our guests. there is a way to quantitify some of these take aways. turns out the immigration policy and cory booker speaking spanish, that really resonated with people. [speaking non-english ] on day one, i will make sure number one, we end the i.c.e. policies that are violating the human rights. when people come to this country, they do not leave their human rights at the border. >> booker did a pretty good job with that spanish. i thought beto o'rourke had a

bit of gringo spanish. >> he started the trend. >> he does get credit for kicking things off. >> yo no hablo espaniol? >> one of the highlights was the question of whether o'rourke was going to be able to handle himself on the debate stage. the knock against him is that he is a bit of an empty suit and couldn't go deep on policy or substance. i thought amy klobuchar would be the one that would show that. that you might just see it as a dint of contrast. pointed out where o'rourke

didn't really have the handle. >> you should be happy former mayor bloomberg wasn't up there speaking spanish. >> the booker moment was the one that went viral. o'rourke spoke spanish a lot longer. number two, castro who spoke spanish briefly is actually latino. obviously something that hit for booker more than the other two. >> a lot of exchange there as well in spanish so it is interesting that booker's spanish is the one that went viral. >> let's watch this. >> we talked about the supreme

court. do you have a plan to deal with mitch mcconnell if you don't beat him in the senate. it is very possible you'd be getting elected with a republican senate. do you have a plan to work with mitch mcconnell. >> i do. >> she does. i'm not sure that was the sound bite we wanted to go for but talk to me about that moment. >> in terms of that moment, the supreme court is an issue that has become salient. we saw in the last cycle, it was very salient for republican voters. now, the issue of the supreme

court, that is becoming important. elizabeth warren's stance would do her well. >> let's talk about some of these plans. specifically health care. warren said she backed the government-backed health care plan. how are either of them going to sell that to the american electorate at large? >> it is certainly difficult to take someone who likes the health care that they have. not everybody likes that system. that is a big ask in the same

way to take the people who have medicare and say you can't have that anymore or change into or out of an obama care situation. i think most people who shop around and pick a new plan every six months. these are sort of issues if a candidate wants to make a case on, they have to explain to voters. >> for weeks now, we've talked about top issues. health care being number one. the candidates that will be on stage tonight, do they have the opportunity to reshape how they'll respond to a lot of issues because they saw how the can candidates spoke last night?

>> i think on health care, they were asked if they would be okay with abolishing private health care. with so many candidates on stage and so much ground to cover, it is hard to get to every single topic. health care is an important topic. we saw immigration and then health care. we were surprised we didn't hear more about women's reproductive rights. it is turning into more of a swing turn out.

they are prepping to see what they best want to address. i think vice president biden does have a chance on health care. he had a hand in crafting obama care. that is very popular. although a lieutenant agree it needs improving or fixes. i don't recall former president obama being mentioned on stage which is fascinating i don't know if that had anything to do with biden running. >> i heard it mentioned once. i'm wondering if biden in preparing, how often he will

bring up former president obama or if he'll try to stick out on his own. >> you are going to biden's first name is obama by the end of the night. there is a risk in that too that the other candidates will quickly point out that obama had the opportunity to encourage him or endorse him in 2016 and he did not. and in 2020 and did not. may even decide to point out that vice president biden was not chosen because he was just like obama but also because he could be a candidate that would reach out as white working voters. maybe a little more of a

challenge at a time when he's trying to win primaries. >> we'll speak with you both in a moment. coming up, where the candidates strayed from the truth. stay with us. cool! wait til you check out the back! that's a lot of groceries. look at my strong man! don't patronize me... the new buick envision is full of surprises. current eligible gm owners get up to 16 percent below msrp on most of these 2019 buick models. that's just over 7 thousand on this envision premium. you should know the location of a decent bathroom.ation, my gut says, take new benefiber healthy balance. this daily supplement helps maintain digestive health naturally while relieving occasional constipation and abdominal discomfort. new benefiber healthy balance

from the "new york times" saying castro won the night. he was assertive in key moments but didn't appear desperate. >> as each candidate pushed his or her own policy proposals. nbc news has been fact schcheck. what is true and what's not? back with us, political reporter for nbc news.com. let's start with amy klobuchar who said this. >> i'm someone who can win and beat donald trump. i have won every states and place every time in the reddest of districts. i can win in wisconsin, iowa and michigan. >> is that truly true, has she won in the reddest of districts

there? >> this is true, donald trump only lost minnesota by 1.2 percentage points. and amy klobuchar carried 62% of the states. this is really a central part of her message that she appeals to trump voters and can steel them away in 2020. it was interesting. they tracked how many times the candidates mentioned them by name. it wasn't to criticize him but to describe how well she had performed in areas. >> i believe out of the gate, one of her first answers mentioned trump. let's talk immigration here. ohio senator saying this. >> if you go to guantanamo bay, there are terrorists held that

get better health care than those kids that tried to cross the border in the united states. true or false here? >> this is also true. no one is saying things at guantanamo bay are perfect. there have been reports of abuse and neglect but detainees do get access to health care. under military law, we can't bring those detainees to the united states for care. they have surgery on their joints, routine colon skopies. we have seen several reports of the children that are being detained are living in squaller conditions and don't have access to items like toothbrushes and soap. >> developing flu-like and

respiratory conditions. >> an unfortunate reality there. back to senator klobuchar, she mentioned free public college and wanting to cancel up to $40,000 in debt for americans. >> i do get concerned for paying for college for rich kids, i do. i think my plan is a good one. that would be first of all to make community college free and make sure everyone else besides that top percentile gets help with their education. >> this is a common criticism of this plan. is senator warren's college proposal similar to paying for college for the rich? >> what amy klobuchar said here is mostly true. one warren is proposing free public college.

you could make the argument that because it is not tied to income, wealthy families could take advantage of this and we would be paying for college for rich kids. that said, extremely wealthy families, are the families that are likely to send their children to private schools, which are not at all part of this plan. elizabeth warren has a plan to cancel student loan debt. under her plan, people with a house hold income of under $250,000 are still getting considerably relief. her claims here do hold up. >> we have a lot of good fact

checks here. to kind of look and the overall picture, you want to look at center stage. it becomes a tale of two candidates. ee liz wedge warren throwing out a lot of claims. very, very clean. beto o'rourke had trouble defending himself against castro with section 1325 and when he talked about the manufacture of oxycotin. not to say people didn't play with the truth a little bit but on the whole, we saw a fairly clean debate. >> and it is oh, so early. thank you for your time. >> who had the strongest closing argument of the night? you'll hear from the panel and

our candidates weighing in next. . but in my mind i'm still 35. that's why i take osteo bi-flex, to keep me moving the way i was made to. it nourishes and strengthens my joints for the long term. osteo bi-flex - now in triple strength plus magnesium. like.. pnc easy lock, so you can easily lock your credit card when its maximum limit differs from its vertical limit. and clover flex, for when you need to take credit cards when no one carries cash.

great tonight. >> i'd say deblazio and actually julian castro had the strongest surprise moments for me. >> i'm really happy we talked about issues at the border. >> i would say warren, booker and castro had really good answers. e else was kind of white noise. >> some of last night's biggest issues, health care and the economy. >> some contenders took the spotlight more than others. joining me with more on last night's debate. >> let's look at the reaction to what was said. looking at twitter. looking at candidates with the most twitter buzz. number one was elizabeth warren. given she was the front runner

on the stage during night one. two, booker, castro, o'rourke, amy klobuchar and rounding out the top was tolsi. let's talk talk time. the person who spoke the most was booker at just under 11 minutes. 10.9 minutes. >> i would expect that. >> noub two, o'rourke at 10.3 minutes. warren at 9.3 minutes. those were the top there. >> i love that you heard that. i didn't know my mic was open. i did expect that from cory booker. we know him to be a talker. he waxes poetic a lot on the hill as jeff knows covering the hill for quite some time. i'm not surprised. i am surprised with owe roe'rou

being right behind him. >> exactly, he had that opportunity to respond. he was up there because his name was evoked quite a bit. in last place was jay inslee who spoke for just five minutes. the issues spoken about the most. by far, health care was mentioned 37 times. that was by far the most, followed by guns 29 times, economy 19 times. taxes 16 times and the border 14 times. something we had someone on our team looking out for was the word socialism, which maybe we'll hear tonight with bernie sanders on the stage. >> it was kind of a tail tale of

two debates. we appreciate it. coming up next, the closing arguments of all the candidates. we'll break them down next. >> and watch "morning joe" live from miami. all at the top of the hour. we got the idea that if we took two dimensional patient imaging and put it in holographic displays, we could dissect around the tumor so we can safely remove it. when we first started, we felt like this might just not be possible but verizon 5g ultra wideband will give us the ability to do this. ♪ wearing powerful sunscreen? yes! neutrogena® ultra sheer. unbeatable protection helps prevent early skin aging and skin cancer with a clean feel. the best for your skin.

country. because putting working people first, it matters. >> we have three grandchildren. we love them all. when i was thinking about whether to run for president, i made a decision. i decided on my last day on earth, i wanted to look them in the eye and tell them i did everything humanly possible to protect them from the ravages of the climate crisis. >> they've tried to divide us who is white, black, guy, straight, a man or a woman. they divided the working class. it is time for us to come together. i'm ready to play some offense. >> we have a government of by and for the rich and powerful. this must end. >> on january 20, 2021, we'll say adios to donald trump. >> first i listen to people and i get things done.

that is my focus. i have a track record because i listened and i acted. >> this is on a reverend of getting rid of him but also on us. who we are and who we'll be to each other. >> we renewed the democracy by bringing e in. >> we can make our country and economy work not just for those at the top. we can make it work for everyone. i promise you this, i will fight for you as hard as i fight for my own family. >> joining us again, julian manchester, reporter for the hill. i'll start with you. democrats i've talked to say, two things you can do with these kind of debates. you can use to reset your

campaign like castro did. who do you think did that best? >> elizabeth warren did best on hitting her marks on message. she came in wanting to tell people a couple of things about herself. the country needs big structural reform in order to get lower and middle class americans to get a bigger share of the pie. she said the economy in washington and the political system had been broken for a long time. so you need those big reforms. the other piece is in order to get those things done, you need a fighter, someone who will brawl for you. i think democrats have been wanting a fight since november of 2016. she did exactly what she set out to do. >> it is interesting, we have been talking about people

wondering should they be voting for someone who request beat the president or someone they believe in? we've seen warren rising in the polls. she is very much about issues. she definitely didn't take the bait that a lot of others did on the stage last night. she was not about the infighting. she stuck to her message. did she do it well enough? can she be one in the same? can she be the person who beats the current president and inspires people to vote for her because of the issues? >> it is very early to tell if she can beat donald trump. i don't want to make too many forward predictions. >> but that's what people are thinking. you are looking at those candidates thinking i like what they say but can they stand on

that stage next to donald trump. we are fooling ourselves if we think that's not going through people's mind's watching this. >> right. talking to a lot of democratic strategists, i'm hearing more and more that elizabeth warren is in the best position to win the nomination. it is too early to tell. joe biden hasn't seen a slip but she's rising. i wonder if her focus is the correct formula to really beat donald trump. donald trump does not necessarily focus on the issues a lot. in 2016, he went on the offense attacking clinton not only on the issues but making a series of personal attacks and did that in the 2016 primary. you are seeing warren not even get into it. with joe biden coming under fire with the remarks of him working with two segregationalist

senators. you saw more of this infighting. i don't know if a lot of democrats have the appetite to see that infighting. they want someone who is willing to stick to the issues and rise above. s maybe that would send a strong message if warren were to face off against president trump. >> and the president we have been told just touched down in japan as he begins a two or three-day trip there to attend the g20. we have the trade war with china. rising tensions with iran. he is set to met with putin. yesterday, he told some reporters there, we asked him what he was going to talk with putin about. the president said none of your business. we know he watched the debate last night. he tweeted one word.

boring in all caps, explanation point. >> i want to test what you said here, the president sucks up all of the oxygen and seeps into every conceivable action. yesterday, he was attacking a u.s. woman's soccer player. given that, why was it not appropriate for the democrats to focus on themselves as we look at air force one here. >> they can chom to talk about whomever they want. what they will be called on to do and prove largely to democratic voters is prove that they are the best to take on donald trump at some point. there was not a contrast offered between these candidates and the current president of the united states for the most part.

there were a few one liners. >> amy klobuchar said you don't do foreign policy in your bathrobe at 5:00 a.m. in fact, a lot of times presidents are woken up in the middle of the night by a phone call. i think the absence of donald trump in this debate was good for him. >> thank you both. >> thank you. >> take care. the president did come up a few times during the debate especially when national security was at issue. one candidate had a particularly scathing remark. >> make sure to watch "morning joe" live from miami at the top of the hour. that, do i? actually, you do. harmful bacteria lurk just below the gum line, and if you're not taking care of your gums, you're not taking care of your mouth.

japan as president trump arrives there for the start of the g-20 summit. and as we await him and the first lady to step off of air force one, he has a number of issue that are facing him. he's going to meet with vladimir putin. the question back here is the question of russia's election interference. etc. scalating tensions with ir. as this broughting trade war between the u.s. and china really shows no end in sight. then there's this lingering question of north korea. will there be a third summit between president trump and kim jong-un. some people close to the president have been teasing that. we'll keep an eye on this picture here as we await to see president trump walk down the steps. we're also continuing our coverage of last night's debate. we have jay inslee with one of the biggest applause lines all about president trump. take a lock. >> the biggest threat to the security of the united states is

donald trump. >> the suingle issue candidate breaking away from issue to land that line. jay inslee was responding to a question that was asked about the greatest threat to the u.s. delawa blasio was the only one say russia. >> how do you play politics? you maximize your differences, minimize your similarities. what governor inslee decided to do is to maximize his world view as it relates to president trump. the question about national security, that is an important question. that's a serious question. and he decided to break rank with his more traditional environmental answer he would

typically give to say trump, the president of the united states, is the number one national security threat. it landed and it landed well. the man is running in a competitive campaign. if you're going to win in a democratic primary, you have to say things that connect to the heart of people and it was evident his answer connected to the heart of those who were watching and those listening. >> as we await the president to disembark from air force one to begin the g-20 summit, the other candidates pointed to china and potential nuclear war and climate change as some of the greatest threats. all those issues top of mind at the g-20 summit. it's not just about the probl s problems. it's about who can actually fix them. the president thinks he's the man to do it. which issue do you think are twoing to resinate with the voters brought up last night and who projected amongst those candidates on the stage the strength and readiness to take

them on? >> it was very difficult for someone like myself to take someone like governor inslee. he seems like a nice man torks take him serious. by saying the president is the largest threat was a a joke and he was throwing red meat to the base. >> why do you think that was a joke? >> because i think the president is actually doing an excellent job with handling china and putting tariffs on mexico and china and dealing with trade. >> so you think the trade war is a good thing right now? >> i do. >> what about iran? we know iran will be top of mind. he's meet iing with the preside from china and vladimir putin. top of mind will be iran. how is the president doing with that right now? >> it was wise for him to pull out of the iran deal. it was interesting to see all the candidates last night disagreed with that including tul tulsi gabbard. i liked her. she came across strong outside

of that answer. when us yo had the one answers as to what was the biggest threat, she did say nuclear war, which i agreed with her. those that spoke of climate change, only had a tough time taking serious, but if they said that intermix ed with china, thn i took them seriously. >> we have a resurgent china. you have iran, which is is a persistent threat. you have the crisis in central ameri america. and you have hot spots all over the middle east. based on what we saw last night, based on what you know the candidates will had see tonight, who is best to tackle the range of these threats here as we have a minute length of time in our coverage this morning? >> based on the debate performance, the three that stood out to me was cory booker -- >> just one moment if you can standby as we're watching the president disembark from air force one to begin the g-20 summit talking about many of the
