[ light laughter ] which brings us to a segment called, "the kind of story we need right now." ♪rs [ chnd applause >> seth: this is danielle reno

a coup weeks ago she pulled into a gas station, got out of her car, and when she did, someone else jumped in it and drove away so she did what ony normal persould do. she filed a police report and then in a move that can only be described as abnormal, she hunted the car dn herself. danielle's cell phone and wallet were still in the car, so she started tracking the thief's locationn the phone's gps and cross-referencing that with charges the thief was making on her credit card. this is the kind of story ow need right n while the rest of u.s. - well the rest of us, excuse me, are watching the news every day feeling helpless, this woman watched "taken" and was like, "i can do that. [ laughter ] but for my car." [ applause ] so what happened next? danielle showed up at each of the stores where the thief had used her credit card, talked to employees and looked for clues to be clear, this woman has no previous law enforcement experience she's just a mom trying to get to the bottom of a crime and if you've ever come home after curfew smelling like weed, you know moms solve crimes

[ cheers and applause it is too bad. it is too bad. she's not a detective because danielle reno is a kickass detective name danielle reno sounds like the er main charact on a show on tnt. [ laughter ] so finally, after two days of intense mariska hargitay role playing, danielle had a break in the case she showed up to a different gas station where the thief had recently used her card and learned that he had st missed them but one of the gas station attendants had overheard theth f making plans to have lunch at applebee's. because even criminals in your neighborhood like to eat good. [ light laughter ] also i guess the lesson here is if you're doing something shady at a gas station, whisper, because it turns out the gasio statattendants are listening to you [ light laughter ] so danielle was off to applebee's but because this story takes place in america, her hometown has multiple applebee's. so she and her friends split up and each went to a different location to wait this is the kind of story we need right now

nothing this cool ever happenspp at abee's. only two things ever happen there, co-workers' birthdays and custody handoffs [ audience ohs ] [ light laughter ] also, how cool is it to be friends with daniee reno most moms call you and invite you to book club danielle's like, are you free for a stakeout [ laughter ] so danielle's chilling in a booth lying in wait probably sipping on something like this when the thief walks in. danielle walks out, finds her car in the parking lot and drives away because you know mom has a spare key. then - [ eers and applause then she called the police, but not before live-streamg her victory on facebook. >> oh, my god. so before i call the cops, i wanted to show you guys what i just found by doing our own stalking. and i am going to pull into this she's about to get herss

arrested because we [ bleep found her.

[ laughter ] >> seth: do you think the punk rocker that is sti inside you is surprised that you, the outside you, is nning for president? [ laughter ] >> yeah. maybe just a ltle bit, but i'll tell you, this campaign at its best has a do-it-yourself ethic and spirit we don't take a dime from a single political action committee or corporation or o special interestlobbyist it's all people, all the time, driving from one town to thext showing up, telling our story but listening to the stories of others. which was kind of like touring in a punk rock band in the

1990s -- [ laughter ] a little bit >> seth: yeah. >> yeah. >> seth: probably a nicer car situation. >> yes, yeah [ laughter ] we were touring in a -- we called it the lumber wagon it was a station wagon with four guys, our amps, the drum kit and maybe one change of clothes per person >> seth: yeah.

[ laughter and applause >> where is ted cruz when you need h >> seth: yeah, exactly [ laughter ] >> you know what - >> seth: very rarely uttered, and yet, here we are yeah [ lauger ] [ cheers and applause >> true. you know, what was so great about that campaign in texas, against ted cruz, was running in

a state that had been taken for granted. really written off 5 rankedh in voter turnoutto and in additioetting to debate him, we went to every single one of the 254 counties in that state. so no matter how big or blue, we showed up because we didn't want to take it for granted matter how small or red or rural, we showed up there, too, because we didn't want to write you off.la some ps had voted for donald trump 96% in the 2016 election. one place, archer county, that we went to, no candidate from senate from either party had70 shown up in ears when lbj dropped out of the sky in a helicopter in 1948, landed on the courthouse grounds and walked over to the american legion hall it had been that long since anyone had shown up to listen to them so that was what was so exciting and at the end of the day, we turned out in record numbers won more ves than any democrat had in the history of the state of texas it was really an extraordinary election [ cheers and applause

>> seth: and you won a lot of -- i think -- i think it was almost about a half a million votes of people that voted for greg abbott. that's right. >> seth: a republican, who also voted for you. so this is, i think, one of the reasons why there was enthusiasm for the idea of you running is maybe you can connect people who don't agree usually with aat demo candidate obviously, there's a scalability question with the united states, versus -- i mean, agon't get me wrong, texas is pretty impressive but -- as far as size is that your plan here, is just to sort ofet wheels down everywhere you can >> absolutely. that's theonsistent theme, from being on the road with the guys in the band 25 years ago, to being on the road across 254 counties of texas. to this weekend being at the diving elk, a great bar in sioux ty and taking questions from people who were there, introducing myself, and then going to ce sioux er which is one of the most, if not the most, conservative places in the state of iowa and not writing anybody off.

and not asking who'd you vote for for president last time? o?at party do you belong t who do you pray to, who do you love [ speaking spanish ] i do not care. just tell me what's important to you right now. we're anything else. and i got to tell you, in addition to showing up with the courage of our conviions, talking about what we want to see for america, i'm learning so much by listening to people about what's important to themir in tives and they never asked about polling. they never ask about ndraising. they don't care about the horse race they want to know how they're going to afford prescription medication or how we're going to get mental health care, not as a function of luck or fortune, but as a human right that every single american can depend on. and think that's something that unites us across the differences that we have in this country right now. [ cheers and applause >> seth: it -- it strikes me that, you know, from what i know about you, it strikes me that you believe -- you're someone who thrives in that situation where you can ge locath people.

you can be in, you know, bars or restaurants talking to them in the places they live is it -- as you prepare for these debates, especially ones where it will be you and nine other people onstage, and you know, short answers, is itn frustrating to theke that same message that given the luxury of a little bit more time with people you feel like gets across versus what you'll be up again next week? >> short answer is yes >> seth: yeah. [ light laughter ] >> it's very different experience to try to package a really complex policy issue and everyone that you've listened to in america into 60 seconds andat in an mpt to do that while nine other people are talking over you simultaneously. and yet that's what we've got to do that's where we are right now. and my task is to come through as strong and clear as possible to define this as a moment of h. trut you've got somebody holding mass rallies sang "send them back," four members of congress who happen to be women of color. someone who is lockingp kids in cages

someone who has the deaths of six children who are in our care in custody on the u.s./mexico border on his hands, on our conscience we got to stand up to be counted and i want to make sur we come through and this marks the best period going forward for the united states of america that we std up to this challenge. we stood up to this bully and we revealed ourselves to be an ambitious, aspirational people,a defined not by fr but our courage and our confidence and the resolve that we show in order to accomplish these bi ous goals. [ cheers and applause >> seth: with -- i think one perspective you have that's really unique is, obviously, you know, you're from el paso. it's a border town and can you speak to -- what we might all be getting wrong about the border not just with how republicans have treated the situation there but how democrats have as well >> yeah. so, el paso, texas, my hometown, is connected with ciudad juárez and they form the largest hemisphere community in the

there's 3 million of us who are joined, not separated, by the rio grande rer, speaking two languages. coming from these two countries that form something greater than the sum of the people or thepa s involved and el paso is one of, if not the safest cities in america, not despite, but because it's a city of immigrants and asylum seekers and refugees so what so many people get wrong right now is thinking th mexico or mexicans or immigrants are a threat their very presence makes us stronger and safer and more secure and so if immigration is a problem, it is the best possible problem this country could have. it's time that we rewrite our immigration laws in our own image. never again cage a child reunite those families who've been separated free every single dreamer fromio any fear of deport and this becomes a stronger, better, more successful country for it [ cheers and applause >> seth: so -- all right. at's - >> yeah.

>> seth: yeah. [ cheers and applause ha >> t you >> seth: now you know what's going to happen, though. now that you did that, someone else is going to use it at the debate before you. [ laughter ] >> gave it away.>> eth: you -- i do want to ask, obviously, it's a crowded field. i do think it's very early, andl certaihistorically, what we see in polling now is not borne out as a result of anypr idential election. we're a ways out but i think some people have asked, you're obviously this incredibly talented candidate. rtainly those in the democratic party said you -- "look, you're a great congressman. you came really close. maybe the best use of you isn't here with everybody else because all these talented people who are now putting their attention and obviously only one of them can get a sh at this how do you -- do you ever have doubts and think, "oh, maybe this was the wrong thing for me to aim for right now?" >> no, i never think that. st important way for me tohe contribute to this country's success because i don't think that any one person is gng to defeat donald trump or bring

this divided country together again. i think it's really going toke ta movement. and a movement that doesn't care if you live in a big city or a small town, if you're an independent, a democrat, or pu reican a movement of all of us. and more than 100,000 people have signed up to join this campaign to volunteer or knock on doors hundreds of thousands have donated 5 or 10 or 15 bucks. we have the greatest volunteers in the country working their hearts out right nowll and they anow that this is a marathon and there's going to be highs. there's going to be lows but through that, weust persist and it's the only way that we're going to be successful and secure that nomination, defeat donald trump, and then meet the ambions of this country and see these great priorities through once we're in office in 2021 >> seth: all right well, thanks so much for making the time for us.
