karine jean-pierre, i always go ladies first anyway, but in this case black women are actually the core of the democratic party. >> they are the core. >> it is weird for me watching a democratic debate where black women were not there other than the one moderator. obviously abby phillip was there. but it was strange to watch a party that is just utterly dependent on black and brown voters hold that debate tonight. your thoughts. >> and we started off with the most diverse, the most talented of candidates in the primary, and it was not represented at all on the stage. it's problematic. this is something that the democratic party has to deal with. i don't think there's blame to go in one place. i think there's blame to go around as to why we don't have julian castro on the stage, why we don't have kamala harris, why we don't have cory booker. that is incredibly problematic especially before we could even have the first contest. we haven't even had the first

still with us, david jolly, karine jean-pierre, joyce vance, clint watts. karine, i'm looking at you. because this has to do with democratic politics. do you care to make any predictions about the finishing order in iowa and will it matter a whit to the larger race? >> you know, it's really hard to tell who's going to win. it really is. >> i'm glad you said that because that's how i feel. >> it's a jump ball. you look at the des moines register poll that came out about two weeks ago. it was a jumble. and that is a gold standard historically accurate poll. and it had them all bunched up at four. bunched up. there's another poll coming out from des moines's register on saturday which will have a better sense. but i do think that once that contest happens, once we have real data from voters iowa will set the tone on what happens in the rest of the primary. and it is just -- it is really an unknown. i think the question is is this going to be like 2004 where it was kerry which was more of the establishment, that's who iowa caucusgoers went with, or is it going t

move on.org chief political affairs officer and contributor karin jean-pierre and jason shaw.blicans seeming to indicate if witnesses get called for reason joe biden gets railed into a reason to testify here is joe biden. >> if you're the nominee is it going to be harder to run against president trump if he's acquitted and able to claim vindication after what he said about your family? >> it's irrelevant. there's no choice but to nancy pelosi and the house to move. he has in fact committed impeachable offenses. whether the senate makes that judgment or not it's for them to decide. and so it doesn't really matter whether or not he's gone after me. i've got to be in a position that i think about the american people. i can't hold a grudge. i have to be able to not only fight but also heal. and as president of the united states that's what i will attempt to do. >> you know, jonathan, the attacks on joe biden's family have been so deeply personal against his one remaining son. and for him to say i can't hold a grudge, i have to be able to not only fight but heal, i don't understand
