ben rhodes, his political calculation. this is a tough one. you're a democratic campaign manager for whoever wins. what's the strategy to beat trump? is it to try to get the base of minority voters out, try to get the cities really up there in terms of hype, the big vote out, trying to work the women in the suburbs and hope your numbers will win, or to try to move to the center and get some of those blue collar democrats back home? >> no, i think you need to run with the clear message that can both motive your base, but also peel off some of those people. and the way to do it, chris, is by not taking the bait. have your message. be disciplined to it. kit be a strong progressive message. it can talk about things that people care about, including racism, including issues like climate change that motive young people. elizabeth warren has been talking about which way donald trump has sold out. as long as you're disciplined and run your campaign, not his, you have the chance to do both. >> i think we should go back to the history books and look at harry truman. you play your strengths on jobs and issues that matter to people, especially the working people, and you get those is
