welcome back. com commies is -- compromise is becoming a dirty word in politics. >> reporter: the forum put together by no labels, a bipartisan group wants to replace the acid flowing through our political discourse with something more productive. on one side, you had the philosophy of the organizers that what's wrong with our politics is "the hyper partisan viewpoint that leaves far too many of our leaders and silt zens to completely dismiss, ignore, or question the motives of people from the other party." on the other side, you had one of the guest speakers, donald trump, who either didn't know or didn't care what no labels stands for.
5:21 am
according to politico, trump served up his trademark school yard style references to president obama and the challengers instead of challenging the content of the recent interview on "60 minutes." he said president obama bombed. he tried to talk over a young woman in the crowd and claimed laughably that he only insults other candidates after they've been "nasty to him." it escapes me how any of that improves our political culture. he's succeeding so far by exploiting resentiment and venom, not diffusing it. senator lindhty graham a past target of trump ridicule told supporters that trump's ideas with are gibberish, quited snide label at an event devoted to avoiding them.
