i don't i don't really like the republicans or the democrats i i like people like bernie sanders but he's such a rarity in the. mainstream politics that's why i ran as a green party but so it's not the individual it's the system alex and you know this is tim is so corrupted by money i mean we talk about it with the military industrial complex but take any big industry whether it's a while or pharmaceuticals the drug industry anyone they are all are giving money to the politicians to get something for those politicians and it's just not a good system so you've mentioned a few tough minded woman who felt perhaps they have that extra tough to succeed i'm a middle dominated world the politics hub of the the woman activists you for lying were from the women who are changing the whole system well yes and i think if you have a. even majority of women that are in politics that politics would be better than it is now if you have more women that are making decisions in general i think the decisions would be better if you have more women in the state department i think there would be more use o

i have colleagues around here who absolutely believe if bernie sanders had been against trump it may have been close but they think bernie would have won. >> i do not see bernie sanders losing pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, to trump. it wouldn't have happened. >> a youth movement? >> it's partly youth and party will fact he has a connection with some voters who used to vote democratic who don't vote democratic anymore. we have to bring the coalition, the f.d.r. coalition back together. >> dana: is there a coalition without bernie sanders and is he running in 2020? >> he has not decided if he is running in 2020. the democratic bench actually is amazingly strong for the presidential race. whether bernie sanders is in or not. we'll see if he is in. they can put it together. >> dana: jeff weaver, thank you for being here. i appreciate it. i have 20 more questions. concerns of the health on hawaii are growing as the volcano big island continues to erupt. ♪ i like it, i love it, ♪ i want some more of it. ♪ i try so hard, ♪ i can't rise above it ♪ don't know what it is 'bout that little

but i think it's remarkable the way bernie sanders has ignored. they did a generation of live benjamin what would be your hopes for america if i was to give you three wishes for who would be. i wish that we would gently ease out of being an empire and just be a nice democratic nation that learn to live at peace with our neighbors around the world not trying to dominate them i'd wish that the race issues could be resolved in an equitable way in the us which i think means serious reparations for what was done around slavery i also think in that same vein reparations around what we did to build our country on the genocide of native americans that has never been we've never been held to account for well i hope i can actually make your wishes come true but what i can do. is give you the liquid which is the scots gullit for loving cup the toast quite simply whiskey and the quick scotch of course and then you pass it on your close friends well that is wonderful and beautiful and i think passing things around among friends is the kind of world that i real

you mentioned bernie sanders' 1988 campaign. ssage from your book, even though bernie lost, he said it was an important political marker. in vermont, he was a viable alternative to the republicans. throughout 1986 in 1980, bernie had to contend with the exit media narrative he was going to be responsible for electing the republican by taking away democrat votes. talk about the status of independent bids in the wake of what bernie sanders it in 2015. -- sanders did in 2015. outside ising difficult to do. it is rarely successful. bernie sanders is a long serving independent in congress here he is the exception that proves the rule. as we have seen the rise of trump is a and extremism -- extremism, bernie sanders is working closer with the democratic party. he raises money for democrats. it is difficult to run outside of the system. bernie has an incredible credibility with independent voters. caucusesatic areas and , he was winning the voters 3-1, 4-1, in some cases, five-want. public polling show him strong of hishups is because s

bernie sanders and his group are going to be a force. operation and s continued to maintain it and be politically active. democrats don't want to think about that and don't talk about it. whether or not bernie sanders is nominee, he and his supporters will be a force in that process. i would just g sort of mention here, the republicans have, i think 17 in the last election war and gfest, brutal donald trump emerged, not to make it sound like a reality t.v. show. the survivor.ly not just survivor, he knocked else out. very good chance you will see that same kind of dynamic on the side.ratic the person who is able to defeat everyone else is seen as on trump by take virtue of the fact they survived that. i think the days of political anointing somebody as their next presidential candidate are over. cincinnati, ohio, republican line, mary, you are on with our guests. go ahead. you.er: thank yes, the one word we got to understand is respect. we do have it, the men give it to the women, we just got to teach this pride. what it is, is self-este

what can bernie sanders offer voters.ident trump is saying let's turn to the markets, i'm going rework our policies to help the markets deliver to you. tax cuts, dodd-frank overhaul. what's bernie sanders got to offer? >> free everything. free tuition. free health care. free family leave. it's all free. doesn't cost a dime. it's going to be available for you and for me and it's going to be wonderful that it's all free. he's already having a big effect. you take a look at democratic candidates stepping up for the house and senate, and virtually every one of them is in favor of medicare for all, which is basically free health care, i mean, remember, medicare has gone broke. average working couple puts in $118,000 in benefits and takes out $320,000 -- put in $118,000 in taxes over the course of their career, they take out $320,000 in benefits and pass a $200,000 difference to kids and grandkids and he wants to take that system which today is supposed to help seniors and going broke and extend it to everybody which means it w

carol hook, beef stew, and the bottom line is bernie sanders for president campaign was launched in our living room on capitol hill over carol's beefs do. at the time, we figured bernie might be able to raise $5 million online and get the message out there. he was more surprised than anybody else what happened. he raised $237 million online. all of its small contributions, average contributions, $27, we all remember that. he won 21 states, he got over 1800 delegates, and just a phenomenal phenomenal campaign. once hillary won he did everything to help her in the general election. the final point, very exciting part of my campaign. i talk about this in the book. i love to win and everything i get in i am in it to win it. i supported a lot of candidates who didn't win. jean mccarthy, jerry brown ran for president. bernie sanders. along the way -- there is a pattern. i support a lot of losers. if i support you, you don't want my support. i realize i learned as much from the people who didn't win is the people who did win and sometimes it is good fighting the good fight. two books, fiction,

plus this, democratic socialist bernie sanders attacking president trump in a new editorial, say he has put the u.s. on path to wore with iran. a top historian says bernie, you've got it all wrong. we cover tomorrow's facts behind the headlines. i'm elizabeth macdonald, "the evening edit" starts right now. ♪ let's get to your money. we have a busy news hour ahead of us. the dow points. going to get to that? just a second, first's get to those reports. north korea. kim jong-un is threatening to cancel next month's historic summit with president trump due to u.s. military drills with south korea, already canceling a high-level talk with south korea as well. he wardlaw recognize in the washington -- edward lawrence in washington bureau with the latest. reporter: canceling the south korean meeting that was supposed to happen tomorrow. they were talking about unifying families divided by the korean war back in the 1950s. north korea apparently angered by u.s. and south korean military exercises that will take place. now the exercises have been a yearly thing. they were scheduled for a long t

oh, so this part of the same attack initiated by bernie sanders.in one percentage point of tying hillary clinton in iowa, a state where about the democrats have there, they are self-described as socialists. those numbers are national. if you look at young democrats. i think they are confusing socialism with populism of the trump, bernie sanders style which is really about speaking to an economic need in a nation where the opportunity for progress has been diminished because of income inequality. >> kimberly: all right, being stormy daniels' attorney doesn't appear to be enough for michael avenatti. his big plans next. this is laura. and butch. and tank. and tiny. and this is laura's mobile dog grooming palace. laura can clean up a retriever that rolled in foxtails, but she's not much on "articles of organization." articles of what? so, she turned to legalzoom. they helped me out. she means we helped with her llc, trademark, and a lot of other legal stuff that's a part of running a business. so laura can get back to the dogs. would you sit still? th

on the bernie sanders wing it's the billionaires and millionaires and capitalism that's created the problems and that's why your town isn't doing as well as it used to do. - and so when you covered trump and sanders, that was during the context of the campaign, and then post-campaign, once trump had won, you began to cover, as i understand it, and as i remember, reading your coverage in the times, the impact of trump's policies on communities of color, among other subjects, right? - yes, and working class people. - focusing specifically on that. - focusing specifically on that. i wrote about climate change after he pulled out of the paris accords. i asked my question, how does this impact my beat? do poor people and climate change overlap? i found out that they of course overlap a lot. so i ended up going to houston and galveston, texas and talked to people that were day laborers about how hot it's getting. we talk about climate change a lot about polar bears and cities that might be underwater, but i found that there's a whole climate justice aspect that says that the people who should real

we've got to do something about it. -- bernie sanders tweeted >> they call people like bernie or doubtn the mainstream. he is right in the mainstream. you talk to americans all over this country, they will agree this is not an acceptable situation. you knock on doors and talk to people in the church basements, the vfw halls, the hair shops, and you tell them these numbers and they are absolutely outraged. the only people who don't seem to be aware of it is these folks voting for the big banking bill we saw yesterday. we are closed off because these people who benefit from these policies like deregulating banks and big tax cuts for the wealthy, they use the money to influence the political scene in washington and in state capitals around the country. that is what is happening. that is why there is this massive disconnect between the average american and what is going on in capitals around the country and in the nation's capital. monthkeith ellison, this hillary clinton said she lost the election in part because the democrats being socialists. recently in a paper writing -- do you expect

kennedy: when bernie sanders got in the race he was 50 points behind hillary clinton and he won 22 statese were some email messages that show he was not the chosen one. do you think the bernie bros can come through one more time? >> i would love him to run. he has such a personality. he takes all the air out of the democratic field. he's not exactly a spoiler because he's hugely popular. what are you going to do when bernie is in there. elizabeth warren has personality, but she is nothing like him. kennedy: her star had faded since 2016. people hoped hillary clinton would have picked her. >> i don't think bernie sanders would stand a chance against trump. the democratic party wins when they are moderate and have likeable candidates. even if he makes it to the platform and is involved with the base. it signals the move of the democratic party to the far left radical regressive. and that's dangerous for the dems. it -- it's going to divide them. people used to say the republicans have no good candidate. >> they don't know how to find one. their brightest home is probably kamala harris. but

of bernie sanders our revolution. former air force intelligence officer jean ortiz jones defeated rick trevino, who had also received the backing of our revolution. in kentucky, retired marine fighter pilot amy mcgrath defeated former lexington mayor jim gray in a primary for a u.s. house seat. mcgrath will now challenge incumbent republican congressman andy barr in november. to talk about tuesday's primaries and much more, we are joined by democratic congressman keith ellison of minnesota. deputy chair of the democratic national committ, ornc. thank you so much for joining us from capitol hill. talk about the results of these primaries. result to me is that we had an outpouring of enthusiastic citizens and residents who want to be part of our american democracy. we had people come out. we had women win. we had women win like stacey abrams, who may just be the first black governor in the deep south and reconstruction. she is an amazing candidate. the candidates were great, but the outpouring and the enthusiasm was hig

politician going to match who can pull off that trick well i think the best chance right now is bernie sanders and i think that he may run again now we're light years from twenty twenty and who's going to run but he's proven he has shown the democrats in the progressive movement in america what's the model twenty seven dollars a month means something your voice can count he made people believe that their voice could count now there's an identity crisis for the democrats are you a bernie crack the a fall of bernie sanders and be a real progressive and go hard on universal health care go hard on medicare for all go hard on education and go hard on these minimum wage issues and fairness and equality do you go down that road or you to be the clinton democrat be the to. terry mcauliffe next clinton democrat is that we're going to go and i think the democrats have got some serious questions to answer about who they're going to follow and what they really stand for in november twenty twenty will donald trump be still up pennsylvania avenue or will be back to his golf course i'm not going to . trump.

she is a bernie sanders supporter. she had a huge bernie sanders sign in her front yard in the last election. i was up for reelection too. so i had to say, mom, maybe you could put a sean duffy for congress find out too. the next time i came to the house, right next to the big bernie sanders sign was a little sean duffy for congress sign right next to it. and she will tell meal the time -- i support the president -- but she will say, he is evil. take the worst dictators of the last 200 years and she will say that is donald trump. that is okay. but i still love her. she is still my mom. maxine waters and i don't agree much politically. but maxine waters is a really nice person. she is a great lady. and if we can't see the goodness in the people we disagree with, i think we have real problems. i don't know that the media will lead us in that direction but i think, as business leaders and congressional leaders, we have to do a better job of leading the country to say, we can actually like each other even though we disagre

one of them jeff weaver former campaign manager for bernie sanders with his new book how bernie won insidehe revolution that is taking back our country. amanda carpenter, the author of -- >> gat lighting america. why we love when trump lies to us. >> two books for mother's day. >> let me start with you. what do you make of the fact that not only do we have people in the white house refusing to apologize for this horrific comment, this joke made about senator john mccain dying of brain cancer but seemingly more upset about the leak than the comment? >> happy mother's day to all mothers. >> two mothers on the panel. thank you for being here. >> you know, when i think about this country and all that it represents what we are currently hearing and seeing is not the america that i grew to love, the america that i worked hard for every day. john mccain really represents all that is good and right with this country. he has served this country as a war hero, was a prisoner of war, has come back and continued to serve in congress. i have a ton of respect for him. to say the comment in public or pri

bernie sanders won in rural areas. get to the people we have lost is to speak about a bold, progressive agenda. >> thank you very much for your time today. it was good to see you that morning, neera. >>> today is the day the first three episodes of why is this happening, my brand-new podcast, are now available for streaming. we have some amazing feedback from people who have already listened. thank you for that. if you haven't checked it out, you should. go to tune in, whatever you use to subscribe or listen, and let me know what you think. that is "all in" for this evening. >>> tonight as the president cries foul over the, quote, russian witch hunt, rudy giuliani tells nbc news tonight that the trump and mueller teams are in a holding pattern in their talks toward a sit-down interview. >>> minutes ago, a late-breaking story just posted by "the new york times." >>> plus is it over before it begins? kim jong-un threatens to back out of the much anticipated summit with donald trump. >>> and voters back at the polls today

then you have someone like bernie sanders who still has a very strong following.ard with all of these programs that are not free market oriented that would put, slam the brakes on the growing economy. they never have to talk about how they would funded. they just say it will work out. >> brian: from the federal government, administered locally. they are going to clean up vacant lots. they're going to oversee programs for new mothers, treeplanting, and whether rising homes. it turns out there might even be ads for these. right now, that need to be filled. they can't fill, fulfilled our staff to work in restaurants but bernie sanders is going to fund these jobs. >> juan: i don't know how he's going to fund them but the fact is you go back and look at something like the new deal, we created jobs. >> brian: there was 20% unemployment then. >> juan: we created jobs as the government. then we had a war. military jobs. if you wanted to go that far. but the difference here is how many people -- >> brian: you can't like this. >> juan: i don't know to like it or dislike it

then in early 2016 i noticed there were a lot of young people attracted by bernie sanders.nd i said, oh, my gods, these kids are giving up before they even start. like it or not, nothing is perfect, but capitalism is the way ford. look at america. look wait has done for us as a nation. do we have problems in america? income inequality. entitlements. public education is a disaster. but capitalism against everything else out there, capitalism is it. when i look at my own life what happened to me. this couldn't happen except in america. i say to my grandparents. i say thank god for coming to america grandma and grandpa. you know it, and we are a nation of immigrants. maria: we are lucky our grandparents did come to america. >> exactly. one time i asked my grandfather, have you ever been back to italy? he said no, why would i go back? there was nothing there for me, that's why i left. mire grandfather insisted that his children speak to his grandchildren only in english. i regret that now. i wish i could speak italian. working in construction i learned a few bad words. and the

bernie sanders won in rural areas. to the people we have lost is to speak about a bold, progressive agenda. >> thank you very much for your time today. it was good to see you that morning, neera. >>> today is the day the first three episodes of why is this happening, my brand-new podcast, are now available for streaming. we have some amazing feedback from people who have already listened. thank you for that. if you haven't checked it out, you should. go to tune in, whatever you use to subscribe or listen, and let me know what you think. that is "all in" for this evening. "the rachel maddow show" starts now. >> where do you find the time? >> we have a great staff and i like to talk. oh, lord, do i like to talk. >> i am impressed and slightly jealous. well done. thank you, my friend. thanks to you at home for joining us this hour. it was nice to be away. i got a little poison ivy and i caught and released a bunch of fish and gained five pounds. i had a great time. thanks to everybody here for making it possible for me to

carol hook, beef stew, and the bottom line is bernie sanders for president campaign was launched in our living room on capitol hill over carol's beefs do. at the time, we figured bernie might be able to raise $5 million online and get the message out there. he was more surprised than anybody else what happened. he raised $237 million online. all of its small contributions, average contributions, $27, we all remember that. he won 21 states, he got over 1800 delegates, and just a phenomenal phenomenal campaign. once hillary won he did everything to help her in the general election. the final point, very exciting part of my campaign. i talk about this in the book. i love to win and everything i get in i am in it to win it. i supported a lot of candidates who didn't win. jean mccarthy, jerry brown ran for president. bernie sanders. along the way -- there is a pattern. i support a lot of losers. if i support you, you don't want my support. i realize i learned as much from the people who didn't win is the people who did win and sometimes it is good fighting the good fight. two books, fiction,

and i think that this is in part to tied into bernie sanders.hink that sanders was very clear and continues on the idea for example of guaranteed to jobs for all americans. and that has surprising support, a pollster has nearly half of the american saying that that is a good idea. similarly i think support of things like more people being put on medicare, and expansion of obamacare, appealing to people in a way, and i think that bernie sanders has a populist mode more than a socialist mode, appealing to people who feel as a result of income and equality that they want the government to provide -- >> martha: does that bother you? that your party is moving that way? >> it is not the party so much, because i do not think that you see it among the leadership, but you do see it among young people at the heart of the democratic party. speed >> martha: i looked at a graph today and most of the candidates fell between bernie sanders and elizabeth warren. what you think? >> if i was a democrat i would be terrified by that. first of all, she lost to a cap

was happening the day before, and for the year or two before that, where, in the case of the bernie sanders movement-- - right. - for example, you saw a whole new kind of politics, you saw a kind of grassroots activism and, obviously, the ability to generate the resources for a campaign on a national scale that we never could've imagined. - right. - politics in america was shifting before the election of trump, the election of trump then supercharged it, things like the women's march, the single biggest demonstration in the country. - so you believe that the women's march and the protests at airports like laguardia and jfk over the refugee ban, and the protests in the streets over ice deportations and everything else, that these will ultimately translate into votes? because i have to tell you, i'm skeptical. i see moments not movements. i will believe that these things are going to be meaningful politically when the same people in the streets, in the pussycat hats or in the airport gates, actually go to vote. we know that voter turnout in this country is not what it oughta be. - well, so i

democratic party, this is bernie sanders' deic party, not for bernie sanders in particular, but bernie sanders in his more progressive stance has really taken hold. bernie sanders' candidates, the candidates endorsed by our revolution and his group, the group affiliated with him, have not done so well in contested elections, but the whole party has moved to the left. you think about the primaries coming up next week, the big one in california, dian diae feinstn fifth term, she's clearly moved to the left in response to the energy of the party being on the progressive side including now saying she opp des theth penalty, in opposition to the position she's taken in the past. >> nawaz: amy.ue my colleavid wasserman took at the primaries that have taken place, we're about a third of the way through primary season. 65 raceons the democratice sid featured at least one woman, one man and no incumbent, and women won 70% of those. there is not a similar trend going on. the republican side, they only want rublican women who are not incumbents have only won about 20% of their primaries. californi

we got a lot of bernie sanders voting for us. can you believe it?ostly people that didn't like getting ripped off on trade bernie sanders voters. he was right about that. but he wasn't able to do anything about it. these are people that want a government that protects faith, family, and life. [applause] to support republican candidates, i have helped raised a record-breaking $175 million for the republican national committee. nobody has ever been close. and as part of our unprecedented effort, our great vice president, a true leader in the pro-life movement mike has been a true leader has been working to elect more and more republicans. we will be appealing to voters all across america who previously sent a democrat to washington, only to discover they elected a proxy vote for chuck schumer and nancy pelosi. these are people that don't believe in borders, don't believe in fighting crime, don't believe in making a strong military. they don't believe in what the people in this room believe -- that i can tell you. [applause] so we have to do a great jo

i'll ask senator bernie sanders of vermont, and it's happened again. another school shooting, another ten dead and another sign that this has become a part of american life. >> i've always kind of felt like eventually it was going to happen here, too. i wasn't surprised. i was just scared. >> joining me for insight and analysis are nbc correspondent hallie jackson. new york times columnist david brooks. hugh hewitt host of the salem radio network and yamiche alsindor, white house correspondent. welcome to sunday. it's "meet the press". >> from nbc news in washington, the longest running show in television history, this is "meet the press with chuck todd." >> good sunday morning. one year into robert mueller's russia investigation we're seeing two narrative, the counter narrative that president trump and his allies are creating. for instance, members of the trump team meet at trump tower. president trump says anyone else would have done the same. mueller brings charges against former campaign manager paul manafort. the president insists mueller is going

fault because he happened to be a supporter of -- >> okay, here's the difference, bernie sanders and his supporters condemned it. >> i'm condemning it right here on national television. >> you're making excuses for it. >> i'm saying this guys a -- i am totally condemning him. >> he won't answer that. >> he does not represent the president and he doesn't represent our movement. >> but when the president said -- >> hang on. one at a time. >> when this president said the last president wasn't even born in his country and he believed that publicly for four years, he didn't condemn that. that was blatant dog whistling. >> yes, i did as a matter of fact. actually you don't know me because i did. i condemned it many times on-air, and i said that was a foolish -- >> it wasn't foolish. it was racist. and to say it makes a person racist. >> okay, steve, you condemned it and condemned the guy for doing it. you're saying this doesn't represent the trump movement. okay, fine. believe that. do you think that when president trump or donald trump said that the former president wasn't born in this co

conspired to prevent bernie sanders from actually having a fair shot in the primary made sure that hillary clinton always was going to be the candidate. and it's very clear that this is a concerted attempt by the d.n.c. to blame multiple external actors for its own internal problems that led to its own . in the two thousand and sixteen presidential election. the core issue in this story is not what was in those hacked e-mails the d.n.c. sabotaging of the sanders campaign it's unseemly cap and hand approach to financial donors but how those e-mails found their way into the media food chain in the first place cybersecurity specialists say the hackers who infiltrated the d.n.c. servers were russian julian assange and wiki leaks have stuck to their policy of neither confirming nor denying who their sources are saying only that the source is not the russian government and it is not a state party wiki leaks acquired the files and started publishing the emails for months prior to the two thousand and sixteen election and it was not alone no major u.s. media outlets ignored the story it was for be

had its finger on the scale too heavily and that kind of rigged the system against bernie sanders let let people run let's let the let the people decide and that's harder that's hard to do but interestingly there is a woman in texas in a texas primary for congress laura moser who's literally running against the democratic congressional campaign committee so there is in both parties and this is what bernie sanders was about and trying to a certain extent a deep craving for change and running against the establishment and i think the biggest fight in our country in our world today larry is between an ascendant right wing populism and a different kind of populism inclusive solidarity multi-racial populism and that's fighting out in our country and around the world always we're told and thank you or she is she would push it and person i think you could trim a bit of an oval grape guess we thank you for her time today the political panel joins me next stay right there more politicking from new york after the break. the new global economic war is unfolding in the realm of education the righ

she lost the bernie sanders voters because he's a socialist.hat is a key phrase that would have won new hampshire, would have helped her with the younger voters that think capitalism is a bad word. >> neil: she might be right on that. politically, especially in the go-round in this next election. you can make an argument that even breathing that word is not acceptable. >> it's true. a capitalist did become president. she was eventually the nominee in the primary. it was about her assuming that she would be elevated to the presidency instead of working hard for it, which is a tenant of capitalism. >> neil: the rap about democrats, they don't like capitalism. they think companies are getting away with murder. that they don't help out the workers. >> you mean corporations. which goes back to seattle. so you would think that amazon would want to do the right thing -- >> neil: but do you have the view of ceos -- >> no, not if they do the right thing. >> neil: what is your definition of the right thing? >> what hillary said in an interview, people be

some bernie sanders people are really ticking off. you consider places like california. conceive of their politics right now. it is so different from the rest of the country. melissa: that is a good point. kayleigh, when we look at for example, four-term congressman lou barletta. he is taking on jim cristiana in the primary. does this tell you about president trump? this is one where president trump won the state by less than 1%age point. it was a real squeaker. i think republicans will look closely what do people of that state, how are they feeling right now? >> it is interesting because president trump, the first republican presidential candidate to win pennsylvania since the 1980s. no one is stronger than president trump in a state like pennsylvania. it is a hard state for republicans but he managed to eke out in that race. in terms of who is going to win, he endorsed lou barletta. rnc we don't take positions in primaries. we'll let the voters decide. president trump's guy won last week. we'll see tonight. melissa: robin, everybody obviously wants to win. there are a

bernie sanders was on state of the union this morning, he went after president trump pretty order. >> what the american people perceive is you have a president who says one thing and does another. i think in many ways you have a president who said something during the campaign that is moving in a very, very different direction after he took office. rick: we keep hearing things like this is a pivot point for what it means to be a democrat. this is a critical race for the party. >> well, the white house would argue that president trump has not actually changed his position on so many of these things. he said he would move the embassy from tel aviv. he did. that he said he would pull out of the iran deal, he did. that the same thing for the paris climate accord. this is what he told voters he would do and he's following through on campaign promises. there's a large question as to whether most americans like what president trump is doing in office. he has very low approval ratings. so that creates an opening for a democrat to be able to run against him successfully in 2020. but again, wit

fire up the base that they may be too liberal to get elected and it's the independent senator bernie sandersator sanders, welcome back to "meet the press." so let me ask you to respond to the concern now that you've heard from national democrats and i know technically your organization didn't back easeman in nebraska, but many other progressives did, and now they're not riding the race soft and they're backing off on the hopes that she's not electable enough. what do you say to national democrats who say be careful of this nominating folks that are too progressive? >> i think that they are wrong, and i think they are misreading where the american people are at. you know, chuck, many of the issues that i campaigned on two years ago, issues like medicare for all, raising the minimum wage and the 15 bucks an hour and taking on the pharmaceutical industry, making public colleges and universities tuition-free, legalizing marijuana. a few years ago those were seen as radical, fringy ideas, you know what in every instance those ideas are now supported by the american people, by the majority of the
