can bill de blasio and elizabeth warren succeed in dragging hillary clinton to the left? illary is running the de blasio-award-winning and her former self which was at one time in favor of trade deals and other progressive ideas. now.n the center -- she is in the center now. i secretary of state, she was in favor of it. as first lady, she was in favor of nafta. now she is very vague. she says we have to put safeguards because she does not want to take a stand on such things. she wants to be all things to all people. bill de blasio was hillary clinton's senate campaign manager. far he can go in criticizing her and keep his credibility. on the trade thing, i think elizabeth warren as a theory which is that trade treaties can overcome some domestic laws. there is a little bit of evidence that has happened in some places. bloomberg news is working on a piece to analyze whether that has credibility and how much that charge has. olivia: is about trade and inequality. joe will be on the tour with bill de blasio. his inequality and issue that hillary clinton from the non--- can wi

as an organizational tool, it was very effective. >> what is bill de blasio up to? > joining me katrina vanden. what's going on here? >> mayor de blasio believes that economic inequality is the crisis of our times. running as an economic populous, a democrat with a spine, speaking in bold ways, he showed that that is winning politics and you can win campaigns. he became a national as soon as he was elected. my joke is on the reporter keys you have elizabeth warren, bill de blasio. we are in a populous moment. he understands that. he has become the central place where -- i've said to the mayor one thing i think he could do that is very important. you have this agenda that is going to be unveiled. you have mayors around this country from seattle, boston, washington, d.c., he is a fighter within the democratic party. you no he there is a battle being waged. >> so you put your finger on what i think the fundamental lay of the land is and where this fits. just talked to bernie sanders, right? it is very hard to find a precedent for hillary clinton and the role she plays a

the description of fair dread that bill de blasio and elizabeth warren are going for is exactly what president obama will say is in the deal that he's making. >> this probably goes back to nafta, when bill clinton promoted nafta. we're going to take labor rights, environmental rights and other issues into account when we do this deal. and i think by and large, a lot of the unions and a lot of the, you know, economic critics on the left to that deal, even some on the right, remember pat buchanan and ross perot were against it feel like at the end of the day, those things are secondary. people like bill de blasio and elizabeth warren see they don't see how this helped american workers here. and elizabeth warren adds another ingredient into the mix when she's been talking of how wall street types and republicans want to use these fair trade agreements -- or free trade agreements, i should say, to undermall wall street and other regulations. so she has a lot of skin in this game from very different directions. >> and, jeremy, what is elizabeth warren up to here? why did she need bill de

why did she need bill de blasio to cowrite an op-ed piece. >> well that seemed fairley smart to me. that way she tamps down on a little bit of the speculation about whether or not she has presidential aspirations. she can put identity de blasio and say no this is a joint effort. so one thing, though that i think the democrats need to be very careful about is assuming that republicans can't talk about these issues that they -- that she and de blasio outlined in this op-ed. so democrats are very concerned that republicans are coopting their messages on the middle class, on economic -- which republican? >> i think jeb bush is doing it quite well. >> what specific is -- >> he took -- yeah. at this point, it is a lot more general talk of providing economic opportunity to the poor, to making sure that people who are born poor are not condemned to a life of poverty. and it's a message that marco rubio has. it's a message that rand paul has. >> in terms of from a policy perspective, we aspire to give you policies from ronald reagan's day that will do these things. >> the pomzs are vastly di

>> well, i would say this is more about bill de blasio than about bill. what bill de blasio wants his future to look like which is not just the mayor of new york city but a voice for progressives around the country. i think he viewed his election in many ways that he embraced a very progressive agenda in a democratic primary and one extremely convincingly. i think he wants to be sort of an elizabeth warren-like figure. sort of holding hillary clinton accountable for the left. being a spokesman and representative for the left. who knows what he would like to parlay that into beyond being the mayor of new york city. clearly, he has other intentions. >> thank you, chris, ruth. >>> one of the most powerful men of his time texas congressman jim wright he was the majority leader, then the speaker of the house from 1987 to 1989 when he was forced to resign because of an ethics scandal. a move he later said may have been a gross misjudgment. >> the nation has important business. can't afford these distraction ss. that's why i offer to resign. >> there were people

americans say that the iraq war wasn't worth it. >> let's talk about senator warren joining mayor bill de blasiove contract with america. i think it was politico that put it this way, de blasio and warren's appearance together is the latest step in the democrats primary within the primary. liberals efforts to figure out how to push hillary clinton to the left. >> you know, tamron it's striking that hillary clinton's top democratic opponent in the 2016 race isn't going to be bernie sanders or martin o'malley or lincoln chafee the former rhode island governor it's probably these elizabeth warrens, bill de blasios, people that aren't running but people trying to get her to go as left as far as possible. that's fascinating. we're seeing elizabeth warren and bill de blasio do this on the economy, also the issue of trade, organized lay bror and progressives trying to push hillary clinton as far left as possible, so this is a fascinating development that hillary's top challengers aren't even the folks running. the senate will hold this procedural vote 2:30 eastern time today on the fast track trade aut

you hear mayor bill de blasio in new york talking about the same things.may see hillary clinton aggregate all of that and come out with a tightly hung message that i think does walk that line between going too far to the left but being an attractive general election candidate. >> for 35 years i had republican elected officials, candidates and operatives tell me that this is a center right country, which helpless developments in when -- hems democrats in when they have to draft their messages. is that true given the stats you quoted earlier, about where americans are on economic issues. and adding to the hopper gay marriage is it that same center right country they were confident in in national presidential years? >> i'll guess we'll have to see, on the economic immigration issue maybe the center oished. you look at i.s.i.s. or the exchanges in the middle east across the board republicans, democrats or bernie sanders, who is to the left of the establishment on most issues supports the plans of bombing i.s.i.s., the strategic strikes, so on issues like that

mark: two of your friends elizabeth warren and the mayor of new york city bill de blasio put forwardist of things very much like you're talking about. i am wondering, you look at elizabeth warren or hillary clinton. which one is more ideologically aligned with you? bernie sanders: elizabeth warren and i are friends on many issues. i think our approach for the needs for many people are very similar. mark: what are specific issues where you would say you are more in line ideologically with elizabeth warren? bernie sanders: we are talking about trade policy and the transpacific partnership. senator warren and i have worked together closely saying this is not a good agreement for american workers. secretary clinton has not been clear about her position of this issue. in terms of wall street, i called for the breaking up of large financial institutions. i think they have too much power and i worry about another too big to fail. i worry about outsized influence on the economy. i think that is very somewhat to what elizabeth warren believes. secretary clinton, i am not quite sure where she

i know you were involved with some of the goings on today with elizabeth warren and bill de blasio.th warren seems to have won a major battle president obama seems to have lost. who is leading the democratic party today? >> well, you know the people out there looking for a better economic life, they're the ones propelling elizabeth warren me bill de blasio everybody. when you talk to people who look at a check on friday and it's just not going to meet the expenses of their family and it's because of trade deals and stuff like that and low pay, they're the ones who are really leading the game now. i think that today's outcome in the senate was very welcome and i was happy to see it. >> congressman, does that mean that president obama is not on the side of those people because he was pushing for this trade deal? >> you know, president obama's done a lot of great things. he has helped issue executive orders that exclude bad federal contractors. raised the pay of people who work for federal contractors. he's done a lot of good things. but we just have a very different opinion about this
