and margaret is a politics editor at axios, and antoine seawright is a democratic strategist and cbsews contributor. good to have you all here. >> good to be here. >> brennan: impeachment seems to be sucking the oxygen out of everything here in washington. steven, i want to begin with you. i know you think that this is a bad week for republicans. but you don't think outside the beltway this is resonating. >> i don't. i don't think it is really resonating. if you look at the way that republicans in congress are reacting to this, it is wit a slug slushrug of the shouldersm. if you spent time reading the 2,000ag of therit ist. one by one by one, you saw all of the defenses of the president on substances fall away, where there was clear there was a quid pro quo, and the republicans don't have an answer for it, as i think was evident in your interview with senator kennedy. >> brennan: he said it depends on the quid pro quo. >> and he said on the one hand, the president might have been doing this because he had some vague interest in corruption broadly. have you to take a step back and thi

antoine.en saying, yes, i will make your private insurance illegal and actively kill two million jobs, quite a slowing slogan. >> i am not advising her campaign, i will say, that we were able to wind in places in 18, donald trump won in 16 because we talk about preserving the affordable care act. and fixing bugs that may come with that, and expanding on that and fact that while some of us may downplay her health plan. it attractive to some she is getting traction. >> jumping in point you make about 18 is fair, republicans the come in take away your healthcare that is what bernie and warren are proposing to do. >> i'm not disagreeing with that notion, i am saying that voters have been clear about where they see health care as a priority, and important preserving affordable care act, not throwing it out -- >> not uprooting every. >> i think that we have been successful talking about from that stand point. anything against the that, i think we run risk of losing voter. >> disruption is unpopular.

. >> antoine, what do you make of warren's pitch there?otion how to count and she understands this business is a game of addition and i think she recognized the fact that you can't have the african-american community support without having strong, broad support among african-american women, arguably the most loyal constituency within the african-american community for democrats. you have to giver credit to senator kamala harris for elevating the conversation and recognizing and reminding people the importance of black women in the debate on wednesday night. i think becausedn of her elevatn of the conversation, i think you'll see a lot of people making stronger play to court african-american women, perhaps thoseri who are not strongly behind vice president biden yet. >> at the same rally was interrupted by protesters, let's take a look. >> as a white woman, i will never w fully understand the discrimination, the pain, the harm that black americans have experienced just because of the color of their skin. >> i want to say something, no one i

. >> antoine, i want to turn to 2020, a new poll on the democratic race in iowa. a four-way race with warren, sanders, buttigieg and biden all within the margin of error. what does it tell you about where voters are, and are more minds being made up, or is this anyone's game? >> with due respect, it tells me that voters in iowa may have things a bit confused. i think there's still a lot of ball left to be played in iowa. while i love people in iowa, i love people in new hampshire, i definitely rock with people in nevada, the ball game is in south carolina, south carolina will be the real test case for this race. however, for some people like warren, buttigieg and sanders, i will be, could be a place of strength, iowa could be a place of a launching pad for them. but for joe biden, arguably still the front-runner in this race, south carolina could not only be a place of rehab, but it could be a place of comfort and a place of relaunch for him to go on to secure the party's nomination with our large percentage of african-american vote who are will participate in our

we're not going to share this with antoine because frankly he's been rude.ter] >> i've already told rob i'm not share this with >> well, the pickup truck is doing exactly what it was made not to do, shattering. you might have seen this once or twice, i can't get enough myself. and susan lee on the mishap. what the company has been doing since. embarrassing, viral, social media loves it and it was everywhere. now, this was for the cost around what, 49,000 for the truck and instead cost tesla stock 60 billion dollar in one day as investigators investors dumped the stock on the back of this mishap and elon musk dropping 8 billion. and this it was supposed to be bullet-proof against a .9 millimeter. it was come on to display the fortitude of this truck. no, the glass was not supposed to shatter like that, but it did and here is a picture if you can bring it up elon musk's surprise and his reaction says it all. >> you're fired. >> shattered glass. on twitter, the same steel ball and same window several times before the events and it didn't scratch the glass, excl

antoi antoine, what's your take how buttigieg is handling this? strategist joining me. >> several things. when you play ball at a very high level, i.e. running for president, several things you have to keep in mind. one, limit your mistakes. two, go back and consider old film that may come up that may be, something your opponents may use against you on the playing field, i.e., in the democratic primary nomination process. i don't know if the mayor's campaign team thought about these things and the knowing the issues he has with the most loyal voter block in his party, you just somehow have to get in front of these things so they do not become a further stumbling plok block in the future. the reason people think he's not receiving african-american support are the true reasons he's not receiving african-american support. >> he immediately put out a phone call to this man. good, isn't that? >> absolutely. did his best attempt to do that but it doesn't erase the fact it's happened. in the primary in which you will probably be defined by your mistakes

antoine, and mr. ormonde, mr. kentucky ski, mr. trump, they are symptoms as much as causes.itical currents. we need to understand why people his attitudes are now going that way rather than that way. and figure out what is going on. second.would be to highlight something others have said today that is the importance of the u.s. i am probably more pro- european than most people in the city. i say the european union is one of the great accomplishments of our times. it is a revolutionary change you wrote but it still needs our help. i say it was margaret thatcher who said i like germany so much that i always hope that there were two of them.
