joining us now, co-chair of the biden re-election campaign, senator chris coons of delaware.rutal poll results for joe biden. a majority of democrats don't want him to be your party's nominee. tell us why you disagree. >> well, i disagree because joe biden has an incredible record to run on. i'll note that this poll has a margin of error of 6% when you are talking about democrats. 3.5%, that's a high margin of error. it does show a dead heat with joe biden and former president trump for the re-election campaign. but over the next 14 months, wolf, joe biden will be continuing to share with the american people the remarkable accomplishments we had in the last congress. former president trump promised that he would rebuild our infrastructure. he didn't deliver. biden did. former president trump promised he would cut prescription drug prices. he didn't. joe biden did. we're already seeing a cap in the price of insulin. the restoring of american manufacturing jobs. he delivered on background check reforms and huge investment in community mental health. all of those policies, wolf,

joe biden and chris coons did not doothi. they did not help. not believe joe biden about being prounion. guest: interesting point. uaw compensation by all accounts did contribute to the bankruptcies of gm and chrysler in 2008 and 2009. that is well-established. the uaw made concessions and gave back some benefits. i think in the tents and sent, lightly w compensation has been affordable and has contributed to automakers' contracts. but the caller's concern is appropriate. if you talk -- if composition is way out of whack, that would be bad for the future jobs. but the only question is where is the middle ground? how much is too much? we will see whether the automakers and uaw and reach that middle ground. host: let's hear from gabe from michigan, independent line. caller: this is been going on for years, who is getting more? if they just created a tier, is the top-down, whatever the highest level gets, that percentage is balanced out with the union members. what are union members get in terms of compensation and retirement plans and so forth, a

senator chris coons reflected on his time serving with her on the senate judiciary committee. >> sheomeone who was at the forefront of fighting for gun safety in the united states. partly because of the tragedy in san francisco that catapulted her to being mayor. . in part because of the impact of gun violence on so many communities across the country. she led the assault weapons ban legislation in 1994, when she was just in her first term in the united states senate. no one thought it was possible. and with her determined and capable leadership, it became law for quite a few years, and she was persistent, even this year, in trying to pass it again. after it had expired. gun safety was a key piece of her legacy. so too was protecting america's women against violence. she, along with then senator joe biden, helped write and pass the violence against women's act, which has been reauthorized many times, and laid the foundation for modern efforts across our country to prevent and respond appropriately to domestic violence. sumi: earlier, my colleague spoke with former congresswoman jane

i talked to one of biden's closest allies on capitol hill, chris coons about this on thursday.efore the two recent polls. the polls have not been good for the president for some time. he admitted there's some concern about the polls, but he believes things will shift in the months ahead. >> right now, the polls head to head are more concerning than i would expect. but i would so much rather be in this position of having an incredible record for our president to run on. former president trump is someone who talked a good game but didn't deliver. president biden has delivered on his promises and that's what he's going to run on. >> we're hearing that consistent message coming from the biden campaign and the democratic operators down the line about driving that contrast between biden and trump. we've seen it more recently, but not as much as a lot of democrats would like. >> right. and i think some of that we're just over a year out from the election. donald trump is getting pounded -- well, not pounded, but he's in a crowded primary election. he is having to face off with those c

you can see him yesterday where he is praising chuck schumer, meeting with chris coons, trying to handle use a euphemism. >> i think it was your word i was quoting from the book. >> i think i use the a word in the book, because it is a valid word, and your question is, if you could eliminate all of those dark strands, would you have the same fabric. no. and the other hand, is that justifying the dark strands? no. so the book is a narrative. some people say hey, you should have rendered more judgment. i said no, let me tell you the story, because this is something you can see in all of your life. people who are dark and light, and you have to figure out, as you read this story, what do you make of them? and the same with steve jobs. >> so walter, i'm about a third of the way through the book, and i've already have like multiple things that have gone through my mind reading about this guy, who is clearly a genius on a level very few human beings are. he's also, to my mind, clearly damaged individual. so i want to ask you about errol musk, his father. and the damage. how much damage to the

i want to show a debate with the chronic senator chris coons and republican senator marco rubio.n the issue of climate change.

we had two plants in delaware -- joe biden and chris coons let them close hay did not help us. they caused people go on welfare so don't believe joe biden about a prounion. >> all right bill in delaware -- >> i think it's an interesting point because uaw compensation by all accounts did contradict to the bankruptcies of gm and chrysler in 2008 and 2009. that's pretty well established. and the uaw as a result of those bankruptcies made major confessions an gave back some of the benefits they had gotten overtime. so i think in the time since then uaw compensation has been affordable for the automakers and indeed contradicted to their contract so callers concern, though, i think is appropriate in the sense that if -- i think everyone can agree if the compensation was way out of whack and automakers couldn't afford it that would be bad for the -- for the future of their jobs. so the only question is -- where is the middle ground? how much is too much? and i think, you know, we're going still see whether the automakers and the uaw can reach that middle ground make an affordable deal
