he is the first nrcc ever to withdraw support from any candidate. republican issue and not a democratic issue. >> what i'm asking is king has said these inflammatory things and insulting things, why only now is the nrcc calling him out? >> i think he does this in a thoughtful way. he was troubled by the recent incident. he said we need to stand up. we need to call this out. again, this isn't a republican party problem or a democratic party problem. we need to return to civility in this country on both sides. >> you talk about a return to civility. the president's strategy in the final days before the election is transparently to focus on the wedge issue of immigration. there are republicans and democrats who believe there should be stronger security at the borders. the president's tact is to focus on the migrant caravan, to deploy thousands of troops to the border where there are already 17,000. -- are you concerned that the president's rhetoric deepens the divide? >> this isn't a new thing when it comes to border security. we have run ads focussing

he's got a lot of anger going on in that response. >> so hard to unpack that. >> so we ask the nrcc,ltiple comments. it's clearly a response to the shooting on saturday in an awkward way. >> right, there's so much spotlight now on the ill effects of this kind of language. but let's face it, he's been speaking this way for years. and republicans have said nothing. paul ryan says nothing. he's owned that district, that super conservative part of iowa. >> john boehner, i think, was quoted as calling him an expl expleti expletive. >> the current leadership has stayed pretty quiet. he's owned that district, never had a serious challenge, and now he does. >> kristen vilsack gave him a challenge. >> he won handily. >> barely got over 50%. he had to work for that one. >> this campaign that he's in now is a real campaign. jd shutten has raised a lot more money than he has. we saw terrible fund-raising numbers out of steve king forever. >> always been the case. >> always been the case, but he had that local home-grown boy did well and now the sheen is off. with a week to go, he's got a big scr

from your perspective, what do you think is going on for the nrcc.he washington post" showed today -- good news for republicans. democrats had a 50%, republicans 47%. this basically is a tie. so the republicans have made up some ground. your thoughts? >> hi, dana, thanks for having me. i'll leavepundit talk to stirewalt and who ever is better than me. i think you take florida. you want to talk ab florida? how about florida 27? that was a district democrats thought was an automatic pickup. hillary won it by 20. both party are spending in that district. we released an ad documenting a long career of scandal. so, again, you want to talk about triage. democrats pulled out on three districts. >> dana: can i play for you some sound from yesterday? i don't want to run out of time. i was in texas. texas 32 is a race that mike pence said this is where the gop majority wins or loses its majority on election day. here is pete session and colin allred talking about healthcare yesterday. >> this has nothing to do with preexisting conditions. it has everything to

america just like cuomo and pelosi, antonio delgado another big city liberal we can't afford, the nrcc is responsible for the content of this ad. >> host: nancy pelosi in ads. >> guest: for 8 years republicans were able to use president obama and hillary clinton as a foil to beat on and did it, you know, effectively in some years. they are out of the picture, nancy pelosi is what's left. a distant third but some places it may make a difference but, you know, if you're going to ask me for better or worse is this election more likely to be about donald trump or nancy pelosi, it's a lot more likely to be about donald trump than nancy pelosi but in some districts it works but for republicans, i think they've got two different messagesbl for two different groups of people. for the hard-core trump base, tea party, conservative white evangelical christians, the message would be if democrats take over they want to impeach, remove president from office and it's -- that's the central message. for the republicans that aren't that crazy about president trump, overall they like generally speaking w

nrcc basically saying democrats are way outspending them. nrcc reserved $45 million of tv ads.ut democrat candidates have outspent republicans $116 million to $66 million across almost 80 house districts. they are just awash in money on the democratic side. >> they sure are. one of the other things there, democrats are doing much better giving individual races. republicans give to party. republicans give to superpacts because they raised a lot of money from big dollar donor. democrats are doing better at channelling and connecting grass roots donors with individual house candidates. that gives you the maximum. if you're a candidate the number one thing you want is control over your own destiny. having more money than your opponent is good. having more money than you can spend and direct exactly where you want is the ideal situation. lot of democratic house candidates have it. >> dana: i want to talk about this quote from republican consultant john braybender. republicans who are having a hard time in what we would now call trump country, he wrote this, one false assumption was

the nrcc is responsible for the content of this ad >> pelosi in ads? >> yeah, for eight years, republicans were able to use president obama and hilary clinton as a foil to talk about, and did it very effectively for some years. they are out of the picture. nancy pelosi is what's left. it is kind of a distant third, but, you know, some places it may make a difference. but, you know, if you were going to ask me for better or worse is this election more likely to be about donald trump or nancy pelosi? it's a lot more likely to be about donald trump than nancy pelosi. but it's, you know, in some districts, it's -- it works. but for republicans, i think they've got two different messages for two different groups of people. for the hard core trump base, tea party, conservative white evangelical christians, the message would be if democrats take over, they want to impeach. they want to remove our president from office. and it's -- that's the central message. for the republicans that aren't that crazy about president trump, overall they kind of like generally

the nrcc is defending faso's seat in the overwhelming light white district of new york with attacking his rhodes scholar opponent delgado by spotlighting his brief career as a rapper 12 years ago. >> who i am? i'm antonio delgado. i was raised to believe you're supposed to love your neighbor. ♪ because there's a war going on but the [ bleep ] ♪ >> with me to talk about what is going on, jelani cobb, staff writer at the new yorker and josh barro, columnist "new york" magazine there are five or six nrcc ads. they're all rapper antonio delgado, big city rapper, antonio delgado hoodie. i don't think it's gotten enough attention. it is like this is the hands ad. this is one of the most racist, obviously racist ads i've seen. >> yeah, i was just going say that but that's in the tradition of the jesse holmes hands ad. >> which is you couldn't get the job in a black man's hands. >> they had to give the job to an affirmative action hire and stoking that kind of resentment. but the curious thing about this is people are trying to replicate the trump playbook so to speak, but trump was able to g

you saw the nrcc extending money today, which speaks about their ability to expand out. we are seeing positive movement in so many places, but we are not done yet. i think that is where you are feeling the nervousness amongst republicans right now. i wish we were three or four points better at this thing, so in terms of specific races, it is probably nevada and arizona right now. i think we are also feeling more optimistic across the board then we may have been even a month ago. sahil: i have one meta question, if i may? president trump attacked very strongly the idea of super pac's. he attacked jeb bush for that and hillary clinton for that. he said they were scams, they were puppets of the donors. what do you make of that now? brian: i think president trump is building a very modern political operation when you look underneath him. and america first being an external part of that is important. i've made it clear. we are asking people to support us who support him. we are not asking people to support us to influence him. donald trump didn't win because he catered to the

if the nrcc isn't up on a week, it might very well the clf, the speaker ryan's superpac, it could be the chamber of commerce. so some of this is just laying down a marker on what needs to be spent from week to week. i think that the republican advantage is. this you have very talented, battle-tested incumbents. the democrats' advantage is the green wave. it is just an exorbitant amount of money for first-time candidates coming from all across the country, and the fact that in suburban districts, trump's unfavorability in suburban districts is anywhere between 55 and 60%. and the closer it gets to 60%, the more difficult it becomes to get as a suburban republican to 51%. but it's not over. this could be 8 or 10 seats that the democrats pick up, or it could be considerably more. we are definitely in the throes of a very competitive midterm. >> yeah. >> and i still think the jury sought on what high pressures on election day. >> i'm betting 30 to 40, congressman. i'm beyond you on. this ai'm they're cutting you off, because that's what this story is about in "the new york times" today.

we've also been watching this steve king drama that has flared up, with the head of the nrcc basicallyg him. what's up with that? >> reporter: that's right, hallie, the nrcc condemning one of their own just six days before the election, yesterday was a week to the election. steve stivers who is in charge of getting house republicans elected, he wrote in a tweet, we must stand up against white supremacy and hate in all forms and i strongly condemn this behavior. what's he talking about? steve king obviously has a very long history of making racist and inflammatory statements. this, however, has caught the attention of party leadership in a way that it hasn't possibly in the past. why is that? steve king had made remarks in an interview with a far right austrian group during a trip that had actually been paid for by a holocaust memorial fund. but he told this for right group that immigrants are threatening whites, was the meaning of his comments. "the washington post" reported that he said, hey, if those people, austrians, were here in america, they would be republicans. that's what put

really close and after all of the debauchery that steve king has said and engaged in, that finally the nrccwn a spine to abandon steve king. a week out when the polls are closed. please. steve king hasn't just aligned himself with white supremacists like i would say the president has, steve king is a supporter and an espouser of white supremacist ideology. he believes this crap. so, look, i'm not giving the nrcc any cupcakes, candies or pats on the back for doing just the bare minimum. >> okay, no cupcakes or candies or pats on the back. president trump just arrived at the tree of life synagogue in pittsburgh. there he is. we're going to -- watch this as it happens, as it unfolds. let's listen in. >> if anybody wondered, ron dermer, israeli ambassador to the united states and jeffrey myers. jared kushner, his son-in-law, and ivanka trump are there, as well. jared is wearing a yamaka. they're meeting there, as i said, with the rabbi, jeffrey myers and israeli ambassador to the united states, ron dermer. kaitlan collins is on the scene. and kaitlan, you've been there all day. it's very -- it'

john rogers is the executive director of the nrcc. born in amsterdam, new york, outside of albany, rogers began his campaign career at 4 years old door knocking for his mother's friend. over the 15 years serving in three different capacities, regional political director, deputy political director and political director, rogers has worked full time on eight campaigns in addition to advising dozens of others on the local and national level. dan cena is the dccc's executive directer for the 2018 election cycle. sena served as director of the fay data analytics and field department in the 2016 cycle. previously, he served as political director for dga, campaign manager for tom udall in 2014 and as the message director for patriot majority independent expenditure's efforts and? senator harry reid's 2010 re-election campaign. moderating tonight is the editor and publisher of inside elections which provides nonpartisan analysis of campaigns for senate, house, governor and president. he was an editor, analyst and writer for the rothenberg pol

having been the political director at the nrcc when we won in 2010, having run house races since then and multiple midterms, there is no doubt we are playing on a broader playing field than we have in modern history. the problem everyone is having is that this isn't quite like 2006. this isn't quite like 2008. this isn't quite like other midterms. and so what you have is a allned universe in which these races are tossups. they are likely to win or they are likely to lose. then you go to the next one and it's the same story. think certainly with history and the environment and enthusiasm, frankly the finances seeing on the left, there is no doubt we're going to walk into a pretty tough environment. question is can you hold it. you come up with this area that says yeah you can. that is where time is on our side. the houses won or lost in october. unlike the big senate races or the governor races, the house in the end, this is it, we are literally at the window where decisions are going to get made. a lot of money is going to get spent. we don't know what going to happen in the national

having been the political nrcc whenor an rcc -- we won in 2010, having run house races since then and multiple midterms, there is no chance -- -- no doubt we are playing on a broader playing field than we have in modern history. the problem that everyone is having is that this isn't quite like 2006. this is an quite like 08. this isn't quite like other midterms. you have a defined universe in which you have all these races that are tossups, and you are staring at them going, a republican incumbent is sitting at 47, and not 44, hardly likely to win or lose? the next one is the same story. i think that with history and the environment and the enthusiasm we are seeing on the left, the finances we are seeing on the left. there is no doubt we will walk into -- and history being against us, that we are going into a pretty tough environment. the question is, can we hold it and when you go seat by seat you come up with a scenario that goes you can't. and another one says yes, you can buy the skin of your teeth. the house is won or lost in october. always has been. unlike the big senate races

the president is struggling with women in suburban in america and those are the districts where the nrccdrawing money across the country, the numbers just don't add up for the republicans to keep the house, you're probably right, they will keep the senate because the numbers are stacked with regard with the number of incumbent democrats on the ballot but in the house the democrats have huge advantage. cheryl: i think we will be debating up until november 6th every day on this program and i can't wait, it is fascinating, jason, ned, guys, thank you very much, we will have you both back very soon i'm sure. >> thank you. lauren: disney world is helping out after devastation from hurricane michael. cheryl: tracee carrasco has that story and other headlines making news, big florida company, tracee. >> disney donating $1 million for relief efforts for areas devastated by hurricane michael through the florida disaster fund. also contributions from employees to relief groups will be matched dollar for dollar, great to see them doing that. lauren: that's nice, nice for some wal-mart employees, th

the nrcc and the outside groups will pull their money and pull their buys and move money elsewhere. if you are looking at races plus 5, 6, 10 republican and you are concerned, you are cutting loose people you feel like are dead. that's going to have to happen and it will be interesting and where are the dynamics. that will go a long way to tell you as opposed to what they are looking at. >> here's a key indicatorindica. you see this in these north eastern states and the hillary clinton districts. if you are a house incumbent in a district won by hillary clinton. that will be going to other places. here's one of the dynamics among white college educated women. 62 will vote democrat and 35% republican. there are more than 23 seats for the democrats if they hold up. >> countless times privately that that is the key constituency. if they win the white women, they will lose their majority. the republicans before the kavanaugh confirmation heated up. they knew this could be a problem. they knew if they pushed him through despite blasey ford's allegations and confirmed him, lost the house

talking the question is how sustainable the democratic and republican enthusiasm is and we have the nrcc saying today they've seen an uptick in the low dollar donations sort of akin to the grassroots enthusiasm up by 400% the past four days. we don't know a dollar amount exactly. but the democrats have been engaged for longer. they've been angry longer. they're going to be angrier still if the confirmation goes through. it could last, it will definitely last according to pollsters in election handicappers till four weeks till the med terms but could last to 2020 and susan collins might be a key target. we're hearing names being floated as challengers to her. >> emily ngo, robert costa, kristin weller, thank you for joining us. you see the scene in the senate. the senators not in the chamber yet are filing in. we're expecting 17 minutes from now, 3:30 has been the -- 16 minutes you see by the block on your screen, 3:30 is the target time. we expect the senators to be in the seats behind those decks. ready for that roll to be at alled. again we expect brett kavanaugh to be confirmed to the

. >> shep, the republican glamour charge of the nrcc trying to hold the house for the g.o.p. just said he thinks the kavanaugh confirmation fight is really the first time this cycle that the voters they need have shown much of a pulse. >> i think both republicans and democrats have been excited but democrats were already excited about 15 other things. this is number 16. >> okay. >> and republicans have had a little lack of enthusiasm and, in fact, we had nine special elections. and we spent a lot of time and money trying to turn out reluctant republicans and now republicans are excited. >> and senator mitch mcconnell considers the noisy protests on the hill this week a political gift. republicans credit him for getting two trump picks on the court now since he would not move on merrick garland until the end of obama's term. obama is looking toward a possible third trump justice. >> we will see whether there is a vacancy in 2020. >> but you're not ruling out the possibility since you are the republican majority leader and as a republican president that you would go for and pus

in this very room for john rogers, the executive director of the nrcc, and dan seena the executive director of the dccc for our event battle for the house. moderate by nathan gonzalez from inside elections and cnn. at georgetown university we are committed to the core value of free sprech speech. we protect expression that fosters the ideas of ideas and opinions. we know our communities expect the rights of our guest and moderate, to the full extent of their questions and no one would engage in any disruptive actions. at the end of the discussion there will be a question and answer session. to introduce our guests we have a member of the college democrats which is a co sponsor of our program tonight, and she is also a constituent of senator mark warner. ladies and gentlemen i'm pleased to av introduce haley tuloty. >> welcome everyone. my name is haley and i'm have junior in the college at georgetown university. throughout the three years gu politics has been an engaging presence on campus. attending georgetown gives us the unique opportunity to learn from the country psi most prominent pol

the nrcc says that there is reason to be optimistic. >> look at the bellwether state of minnesota. two of them were republicans in office. one that they pulled out of and there were two republicans on defense. >> reporter: the democrats said that they have bailed on some candidates but the plan puts place after president trump was in office is working. >> the strategy has been to build the largest battlefield in over a decade and we are on offense. another piece of the strategy is to take what is a significant republican outside moneretch them fan. >> reporter: democrats are defensive in key senate races including deep blue new jersey where the senate majority pack is jumping in to defend senator bob menendez against the republican defender. >> the wrong prescription. >> reporter: democratic dollars are going to the garden state following the blistering at>> when will we as a society believe -- went to trust? >> what a hypocrite. what about the underage girl that accused you. >> reporter: both parties are trying to figure out how to get the most bang for their buck for the next thr

the nrcc cancelling more than $1 million in planned spending on congressman kevin yoder.is democratic opponent sherrice davids who we've had on this program would be the first native american woman to serve in congress should she win. let's bring in congressman joaquin castro, laura mcgann, and msnbc political analyst cornell belcher, democratic pollster and strategist. you're from texas. you a marquee race there. everyone is obsessed with the beto o'rourke/ted cruz. that seems like the kind of place you're hearing from republican strategists and democratic strategists that the kavanaugh fight is engaging and mobilizing conservative activists in red states that democrats need to win. what do you think of that theory? >> i think that's actually somewhat true. being back home now and talking to folks, and it kind of at least in a place like texas woke republicans up so to speak. but i still think there is a sizable enthusiasm gap between democrats and republicans, and i think this midterm is going to be concussive to the status quo and con cuss alternative the republican pa

one district in texas, congressman sessions a former nrcc chair, he said a year ago that he wouldn't penny of investment, but he's brought the cavalry in including president trump. this shows you how competitive the seat is. it shouldn't even be on the map. >> dana: he was the one that i was thinking of that i heard last night looked like he had just started to edge up over his opponent. take a listen to your counter part. had him on the show yesterday. take a listen. i'll have you respond. >> i think both republicans and democrats have been excited. democrats were already excited about 15 other things. this is number 16. and republicans have had a little lack of enthusiasm and, in fact, we have nine special elections and we spent a lot of time and money trying to turn out reluctant republicans. now republicans are excited. >> dana: talk to me about enthusiasm levels for democrats and how reliable you think younger voters are for democrats this year? >> i'm encouraged not just by the turnout that we're seeing with millennials in special elections and in primaries across the country,

and also just to add, nrcc, who is kind of the republican house side of the committee, have pulled out they're pulling money out. i mean, they don't do that unless they know that this is not looking good for them in november. >> all right. and of course the new rallying cry from the president, from donald trump jr., is that it is a very scary time for young men in america. we're going to have to see how well that ends up working out. but you know what? i think, jennifer, there are young men in america who are thinking that. who are thinking that this is a zero sum game, if they win we lose. we're out of time to discuss it but we will continue this discussion again. thank you to both of you. karine jean-pierre and jennifer rubin. tonight's last word is next. my name is elaine barber, and i'm a five-year cancer survivor. being diagnosed with cancer made me rethink everything in my life. the things that became important to me were the relationships with people. we pulled together closer as a family. i had so many people at ctca helping me find a way to go through the treatments, to prepar

yet there still looks like there is the nrcc pulling back some money. obviously, that's normal. you're looking at the races. you don't have unlimited resources. look at this number from act blue tweeting sunday, this is the fund-raiser for democrats. by yesterday's midnight deadline small dollar donors had made 300,000 individual donations adding up to over $16.8 million for campaigns and organizations using act blue, making it the biggest day ever on our platform. how important is it to have a lot of money going into this last month so that you can spend it where you need to? >> money matters a lot. you can see the left is incredibly energized in raising record amounts of money. they got people like michael bloomberg putting individually $80 million of his money to flip the house from republican to democrat. i think it's important to see just what the left is doing. they want to reverse the tax cuts. they want to abolish ice. you're seeing literally in these democrats primaries liberals being beaten by socialists. their party movement so far to the left way out of touch with th

the nrcc, the house republican campaign apparatus today put out another ad in which george soros is depicteda puppeteer of a democratic candidate for the house. this happened two days after george soros' own house was targeted with a bomb. so nothing seems to actually change the rhetoric. we go through a pausing period where we reflect and condemn it and say we're going to get to the bottom of it. >> we don't all. we do. trump doesn't. >> nothing changes. so i am very curious to see what happens at his rally in wisconsin. >> are you? you really think he's going to say we've got to tone it down? >> no, i think the opposite. >> democrats are not creating giant sanctuary -- i mean they're not in bed with -- >> what i expect is he'll either avoid it entirely, which is my expectation or he will just plow through it. and that to me is the big problem here. we don't know who did this but we do know that we have our own ability to control the rhetoric, to change the rhetoric and oftentimes trump especially we don't take that opportunity. >> i think this is about more than the rhetoric. the rhetoric

the nrcc which is the campaign arm of the congressional republicans, i think their fund-raising has beeng it across the board. the question is now we have to make sure we translate that and hold onto it all the way through november. >> does it help to have a social media campaign that is got a #beers for brett, apparently being support bid one prominent republican senator, john cornyn tweeted this. it was champagne. not quite beers for brett, but bubbly for brett instead. is that the way to fire up the base? it is certainly a way to anger a lot of democrats and women. >> i'm not sure it's funny, but i'm not sure it's going to translate to any votes. no, i think what we've got to do is we've got to remind people what they have gone through and what's at stake. i had mean, as you've mentioned and you were asking your earlier guests, you know, is impeachment on the table if house democrats take overcome january of next year. that's a very real question. we know what it will mean to the president's agenda. it looks like right now we're going to gain seats in the senate. so that right now in

and also just to add, nrcc, who is kind of the republican house side of the committee, have pulled out districts. they're pulling money out. i mean, they don't do that unless they know that this is not looking good for them in november. >> all right. and of course the new rallying cry from the president, from donald trump jr., is that it is a very scary time for young men in young men in america. we're going to have to see how well that ends up working out. but you know what? i think, jennifer, there are young men in america who are thinking that. who are thinking that this is a zero sum game, if they win we lose. we're out of time to discuss it but we will continue this discussion again. thank you to both of you. karine jean-pierre and jennifer rubin. tonight's last word is next. an rubin. tonight's last word is next. like here. and here. see? opportunity. hi! cinturones por favor. gracias. ev-er-y-where. about to be parents. it's doing a lot of kicking down there. meeting the parents. it's gonna be fine. and this driver, logging out to watch his kid hit one out of the... go dani, go!

the nrcc, the house republican campaign committee reported and we wrote in play book reported a massive increase in donations to a solicitation that they sent out. there is evidence that on the right there is some energy about this. i want to kind of dissect what the president has said here. the president has been in right ward leaning districts, not middle of the road districts. districts that are on the right that republicans should easily hold, deep red districts. it's not surprising that in those districts people are going to be revved up and want kavanaugh confirmed. the question is in the suburbs, in the districts hillary clinton won, 20 something of which are held by republicans, is this a galvanizing issue for the left and undecided voters and independents, logic would tell us that yes, it probably is galvanizing to educated women, which is a segment of the population that republicans have had trouble with this cycle, that they might be put off by some of this. you can't say that as a monolithic thought but you can say that would be what logic would dictate and what republicans

but how is congressman king responding to the fact that the chairman of the nrcc, the congressional armblicans, attacked him? >> well, he's denying being anti semitic. he says he supports israel very strongly. and he tweeted this. he said, these attacks are orchestrated by the nasty, desperate and dishonest fake news. their ultimate goal is to flip the house and impeach donald trump. democrats are hoping all this controversy and the republican leadership, distancing themselves from him, will hurt his campaign. and both the democratic candidate, jd scholten, outraising king and winning newspaper endorsements. cnn is rating this race as a likely republican victory. jake? >> just as a note, manu, before you go, and you know this better than i do, congressman steve stivers is not a never trump republican, and that's the reason we're covering this. manu raju, thank you so much. >>> let's look at the house race in general. democrats sound increasingly confident they're going to win the house. that would take a net of 23 seats. take a listen to nancy pelosi, now the minority leader, on "the co

for john rogers, the executive director nrcc. and rcc -- at georgetown university, we are committed to the core value of free speech. we protect expression that fosters the exchange of ideas and opinions. we know the art community respects the rights of our guests in our moderator to the full exposure, probing, and questioning. but that no one would engage in destructive actions. there will be a student question answer session. we have a member of the college democrats. a cosponsor of a program tonight. to the constituent of mark warner. [applause] everyone. i am a jr. at georgetown university. geopolitics has been a engaging and educational presence on campus. -- we have thee opportunity to learn about -- speaking with the qs. to be been looking for able to engage in these events. as a resident of yorktown, virginia. throughout that time, senator warner's commitment to serving the entire country have made me proud to be a virginian. ink warner was first elected 2000 eight third reelected in 2014. he served on the senate finance

but the nrcc came out.ems to be forces even within the republican party, to an extent, that are beginning to step up possibly. >> yes. hopefully, possibly. i think with this rhetoric with steve king, you know, this idea that this rhetoric is not just confined to the boarders of the united states, but it is a global western poison that's courting through our politics. it is something that is -- i think what we need to understand, it's not just about rhetoric. it's not just about political points and about flipping seats. people's lives are on the line. and going back to the republican party and going back to trump, three men were convicted in kansas of trying to bomb somali refugees. and they said in court that trump's anti-muslim rhetoric helped to influence their decision to take people's lives. this is not just a matter of rhetoric of distractions, of cultural ploys. this is a matter of people dieing over the climate that's being created by not only the white house, but people are literally dieing over th

excuse me, i will look at my phone real quick, from nrcc, money raised up, individual donors up 273%,o this time in 2016 their donations are up 1,111% and that that hails in comparison to what the democrats have raised. the politics, it's a wash and cash. >> politics, neither of the parties are wanting for money. 1,000% increase. dana: 1,111. >> democrats have 60 house candidates who individually have raised more than a million dollars this cycle. dana: wow. >> the enthusiasm and intensity is huge. another good metric for republicans of how that intensity factor has gone up with kavanaugh. the question is this, can they maintain it for the next month and what are they going to do to keep this coalition engaged. we know what the problem has been for republicans, they have been divided, traditional republicans, suburbans versus working-class white voters, the maga coalition especially in upper midwest, the places that delivered like pennsylvania for donald trump. that's not a happy family typically. kavanaugh come nation and fight deals both supreme court which is paramount importance f

nrcc saw 175% increase in small donor dollar.d raising day history in ever in non-presidential year. they are still raising money. voters who say midterms are very important. democrats 78% in july now up to 82%. g.o.p. 68% in july it was lower than the dems and as you say now up to 80% in october. how do republicans keep the momentum going though because there could be deflation now that kavanaugh made it. if kavanaugh had been defeated you could see republicans really furious. but now he got through there could there be a lack of enthusiasm. >> i think it's important for republicans to keep that going. now that that you have son-in-law soft republicans, independence maying attention. receptive to the message republicans are driving. important to highlight the stakes. president trump at the kansas rally. he said look, you don't give matches to an arsonist and you don't give power to an angry left wing mob. the republicans' eyes open even more so than on an issue like obamacare. this has affected republicans on a deep and visz sel
