cory booker never let it show. i have to tell you out on the campaign trail he was someone who brought energy and optimism, was quick with a selfie, with supporters, always there to answer questions from reporters. that's a voice no longer in this race. >> as someone who spent time with the senator also, always does it with a smile as well. ali, i know it's early. have we heard whether he plans on running for re-election in the senate? >> yeah. i also think the question to ask, is he going to be endorsing anybody. clearly that's something we don't know right now. his campaign says they're holding off. you have to sort of watch the way these candidates who drop out who do have both national profile and a following -- we talked about how cory booker was struggling to gain traction in some of these states. but there's a national profile for cory booker and he's someone we'll hear about way more now that the impeachment trial is heading to the senate. he's a vocal voice there. not the last time we'll hear about cory bo

if he was still mayor, cory booker.f that was his identity, i wonder if he would have taken off more. >> tom steyer, hedge fund manager. when ali lays this out, a young candidate. a female candidate. a candidate of color. beto o'roarke, kamala harris, cory booker. the fact that all three have dropped out. does that tell us something about the democratic electorate that maybe we're missing? again, on paper, one might say the democratic party today is looking for those three things. >> these are campaigns that in some cases were premised on winning minority support and nonwhite support. but poll after poll after poll has shown joe biden to be the run away favorite of black voters. second, 20 % among black voters, bernie sanders. >> think about twitter, every day saying things like america is tired of old white guys. and you mentioned -- >> apparently not that tired. >> i'm not saying something ageist, but come on. >> according to "the washington post" poll, basically 70% is behind biden or sanders. third place, a woman. >

cory booker had a message of coming together, not attacking his opponents.might now look like there might be a way to win this race with sanders and warren. and cory booker had what a lot want in their next candidate, experience living in multi-racial inner city community. he could not do it. we have several billionaires in the race and tells us cory booker was looking for money and shows billionaires are running rather than funding campaigns. >> booker did go after joe biden in our debate on november 20th. you're right. he was trying to be more conciliatory and reaching out and not being as aggressive. to you, vaughn, you covered so much of booker's campaign. to our friends of the "atlantic," he said booker and his campaign got to where they'd been inching toward. there was no way to win. he crowds were enthusiastic but polls never took off. when kamala harris dropped out he got a bump and another one when julian castro dropped out after new year's. booker and his aides were holding hope while some outside the campaign were asking if he was the last person

anthony: people like cory booker, people like his campaign appearances. a lot of standing ovations when he took the stage. cory booker was able to get the crowd to give him a standing ovation when he left. he was that captivating even from people who were not supporting him. the thing is, there were not a lot of people supporting him. if voters who wanted a candidate who had a sharper edge, they y nt with someone besides cory booker, and if tnted a unity candidate they went with the joe biden or mo and more pete buttigieg. he was caught between two different themes and they never translated to real support. laura: also suggesting that biden has got momentum, sanders has momentum, buttigieg has a. -- it. atoes this say on the even the next debate? anthony: it is very much in flux . a story over the past -- is rising tension between bernie sands' and elizabeth warren's cap, the two progressives. there were reports that they were disparaging durant and cost increase support can and elizabeth warren accused him of being divisive qom and thereas a story th dro

of the primary. >> well, i'm a big fan of cory.e known cory, senator booker since he first ran for mayor. mike bloomberg was very supportive of his campaign for senate. i think his campaign didn't get legs. there is not always a great reason for that. he's been a terrific senator, a great mayor. >> to the opinion piece that bloomberg published this morning, you're trying to win over democratic voters, of course, and saying here, and what i just read that the process that democrats have set up is undemocratic. how is that winning people over? >> well, let's talk about that we're trying to do, we're trying to remove donald trump from office. you're right, we should throw the whole thing out. we as democrats spend a year living in iowa, raising money around the country, moving people to iowa, knocking on doors, getting to know those voter and investing every single dollar we can raise around the country in iowa. the one thing that democrat and republican pollsters agree on is donald trump is going to win iowa. we have thrown out a yea

and cory said from the beg beginning, cory was never going to stay in this race to pull resources awayfrom other candidates. he was going to stay in this race to win. so unfortunately we didn't see that path, but we do have some fantastic candidates still in the race and it will be certainly interesting to see what they bring to the stage tonight. >> tom perez, the chairman of the -- the chairman of the democratic party, he was asked about this lack of diversity, what that means for the democratic primary. what is your take away? you thought about this a lot, in working with kamala. >> yeah, for sure. look, i think the dnc has done their level best to try to have a fair process throughout the primary and ensure as we head into the first contest in a few weeks that voters are really going to see a winnowed field that is based on not party rules necessarily, but based on voter sentiment. i think that, you know, vice president biden has proven tremendously durable among communities of color, specifically, specifically black voters in south carolina where he maintains a very significant le

once again, democrat cory booker to drop out of the presidential race.et's take a quick look at how markets are performing. in the u.s., we are waiting for earnings to start this week, but starting off with the s&p up more than 0.3%, the 10 year yield up three basis points come up or merely to do with the move in germany. holding in adex range, and wti crude above $58 a barrel. yields you say, bund just less than -16. we are seeing selling when it comes to the european bond markets today. we've got a lot of data still to digest. earnings season is going to kick off. look at where cable is right now. we've got a negative bid when it $1.2980.cable, we continue to see short sterling being bid. expectations of a boe rate cut keep growing and growing. it increasingly looks like it could be on the table. carry on the market conversation and try to get some analysis on where we go next with the pound and with what is happening with the dollar. we've got earnings season this week, trade deals to be signed as well. ing bankta, strategist, joins us now. a lot of p

we lost the first black woman, we lost cory booker, julian castro. you can blame it on the debate polling standards or you could blame it on a burchl nch of oth things, but i think it will start a discussion that has already started about the caucus process. you heard julian castro say, why should iowa and new hampshire be first in the caucus race, and mike bloomberg said he was going to start with the american population that was more selective. we'll get to iowa and new hampshire, but i think this will start a broader conversation in the democratic field. >> sanders is very consistent, both in his positions, but if you go through the rhythm of the 2016 campaign and rhythm of this campaign, he waits, he waits, he waits, and as it's closer to voting, he gets sharper. you may have experience, joe, your judgment on iraq, your judgment on nafta, things like that. the candidate says he knew nothing about it. he's the candidate. he's the ceo of the operation. he says he knew nothing about this script where voters are knocking on doors and essentially sayi

cory booker has announced that he is officially quitting the democratic presidential race.nd look, you can quit however you want, but i do think it's weird that his quitting video doesn't look like he's quitting. ( laughter ) he's out there with crowds shaking hands. ( laughter ) and everyone does this. my opinion is if you're going to drop out to have the race, your video should look like you dropped out of the race. it should just be you sitting alone on a park bench, cleaning out your desk, i want it to look depressing! ( laughter ) but, yeah, whatever happens in november, america will not be electing a black president. and, you know, obama must be secretly happy about this. yeah. he's probably in martha's vineyard like, ah, that's right, ah, first and last bitches! ( cheers and applause ) and you have to admit, between the oscars and this, this is definitely not a great week for liberals in america. democrats in hollywood always talking about how important diversity is, but they're the ones who always seem to end up celebrating a bunch of white people. this is finding o

cory booker has been waging a strong campaign for the last year.not make the final debate before the iowa caucuses is pretty devastating. andrew yang to a lesser degree because he has a core following. this large field has winnowed down and some still upset about these rules. no mistaking it. these are the rules in place. by not making the debate stage, very difficult for cory booker to make the argument to iowa voters he is still one of the top candidates. that does not mean they're not important. the iowa caucuses second choice can be so critical. here is why, all the cory booker fans out there and other supporters have a choice to make. if they're not viable, if their candidate does not make 15% on the night of the caucuses, you can choose a second choice. it is the second choice of supporters of senator booker and others, if they're not viable, that is so key and why the biden campaign and buttigieg campaign are going after second choice candidates because that can make or break a campaign as well here. that is why the math and organization her

how much trouble is cory gardner in in colorado? >> a lot of trouble. a lot of trouble. think, you know, joe, you mentioned the swing states, right, in this presidential year there's now i think kind of common consensus that there are really five, right? wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania, north carolina and florida. those are the ones where the battle is going to happen. and that tells you something about colorado. really although the president's team will claim that they're going to fight in colorado, in a presidential year places like nevada, colorado, virginia that used to be battle ground states are now largely considered blue. >> they're gone. >> that tells you the kind of trouble cory gardner is in. in an off-year election it might be a coin flip. in a presidential year the tide is very much running against cory gardner so he's going to be facing an uphill fight in his reelection fight so that makes these votes all the more important for him. >> what about susan collins in maine? how much trouble is susan collins in? >> well, i mean, look, you look at her internal

cory booker.ld not suggest that cory booker is lazy, but i do think the campaign from the beginning, he could not find his footing. he did not come at your point, have a message. he was neither and that progressive bernie sanders, elizabeth warren wang, nor he was in the moderate wing. very similar, sort of, to the senator from california, just simply could not get his message out there, i would just suggest, that as we look at those polls, being a pollster i will say there is always a margin of error. this is not a runaway for bernie sanders. the same polls we are seeing out of new hampshire, it is going to depend a lot on south carolina, then nevada, let's not forget, bernie sanders and elizabeth warren could well be trapped in washington, d.c., six days a week without speaking at this trial goes forward. bill clinton's trial was 37 days. that will bring you through nevada. this thing is going to change. >> harris: who does that help? >> jeanne: i think it helps joe biden and pete buttigieg out

you should have left for the airport an hour ago, cory! oh, you're so screwed.e's never going to get there! get off! ( laughter ) ( applause ) no. no.no. ( eers and ae ) no. the candidates who are still in the race will be fighting it out tomorrow at the democratic debate, and we will be on the air right afterward, live! tune in to watch me stay up past my bedtime, and try not to swear. ( cheers and applause ) the debate is in iowa, where bernie sanders is enjoying a late surge. and trump has noticed, tweeting "wow! crazy bernie sanders is surging in the polls, looking very good against his opponents in the do nothing party. so what does this all mean? stay tuned!" "so what does this all mean? stay tuned?" that's how cable news throws to a commercial. is trump just live-tweeting whatever's on tv? (as trump) "more fox and friends after the break. and now a little english lizard is telling me to buy car insurance." ( laughter ) we have a greatni scborough and mik brzezinski are here, and when we return goop has a new tv ( band playing ) trump: those pre-existing c

cory booker joins us at the table to discuss. pretend i don't know you. >> you can't use any information that will destroy my career. >> i make no promises about that. i think a lot of supporters thought you would at least hold out and wait until iowa. what was it you saw that you felt that you realized now is the time? >> it was a two-by-four, one, the impeachment trials are going to take me off the stage. we are running a grassroots campaign. we were gaining ground. remember, wended the campaign with endorsements in iowa, but not being on the ground to run our race. this one, you just saw it, the debate stage, it's kind of a frustrating reality that the polling ahead of some of the people in iowa. but the way it was designed really worked against our campaign. >> how hard a decision was it for you? >> gut wrenching really. you have around this company people who upended their lives, dedicated themselves, invested their resources. we ran for a very unique mission, which was to try to heal this country, to show the most important

both cory booker and pamela harris both failed in that regard. it was a very predictable, but to him confusing situation, but the rest of us were not surprised at all. and i think it is on fortunate that i have to talk to a candidate than you dropping out is just a footnote. nobody cares. >> speaking as an afro and can american woman one of the things that sort of frustrated myth cory booker is his constant reminder of him growing up in the hood. if that was the only thing that was connecting him to black voters. i grew up in the ghetto, i lived in the ghetto, and at some point you have to say and a lot of us still do. so what are you going to do to help us get out of that situation? so i just don't think he resonated well with them. but when i look at the top for now, basically facing off of those polls in iowa, i feel at the democrats now have what they think represents their party. they have two old white men, a moderate and a socialist. they have a woman and they have a young gay man. and that seems to be what they are going after. if that's

cory booker is not on the state. if cory booker keeps talking about how he is organizing in wouldif cory booker suddenly do something remarkable in iowa, in new hampshire, people will pay attention because they will try to figure out why he is not in the top tier. elizabeth has seen a problem because of her response on medicare for all. bernie survived his heart attack, he is stronger than ever before and bringing in more money than anyone else. iowa, butl do well in he has a history in new hampshire and his history is not because he lives in the state next door. it is because he cleaned hillary clinton's clock. there is a lot of fluidity and mayor pete is doing well in iowa, trust me, mayor pete is doing well in new hampshire. hes not only the demographic represents although he feels a bit old for 37 and seems to have an old demographic that follows him, but his sexual preference resonates well in new hampshire. i have always said new hampshire state.t of a libertarian we were the first state in the nation that elec

let's talk about cory booker first. why do you think it didn't resonate with voters?ront stories. the bottom line, it takes a lot of money. we saw it happen with kamala harris. she ran out of money. she had to drop out. it kind of spirals from there. if you run out of money, you don't qualify for the debate, you can't get your message out. for cory booker, he was very genuine and he had this intent to bring the community together, bring the country together. i don't think that resonated with people. he refused to attack any of the other candidates. right now, because of the political climate people want somebody who is willing to do that. someone who go against president trump. maybe that is what caused it. >> let's talk about the debate in iowa tomorrow. one thing that stands out is the lack of diversity. all of the no people of color made the cut in this case. how concerned do you think the democratic party is when they look at the finalists who are on the debate stage? >> at the beginning of this race, it was said that this was the most diverse democratic field in

another incumbent who is incredibly strong, though not as well-known, cory gardner. great campaigner, good legislative record against a well known incumbent who has a good brand. is problem with hickenlooper that he has not been tested in a long time and you saw his performance as a presidential candidate outside of colorado, it turned into a dismal performance. that is a race where i see a tough state. candidate as he appears in john hickenlooper, so how do you game that out? i still like where we set. based on the terrain, those are the two i would be most concerned about. jacqueline: susan collins caston him popular vote to bert -- confirm brett kavanaugh. sweeps concerned if she the impeachment under the rug, votes for the president's acquittal and not support calling witnesses, it will be more problematic for an already competitive race? steven: i'll be interested to see -- at some point, she will have to cast complex votes on processes as well as acquittal itself. day,nk at the end of the the real battle in maine -- and i think it is a battle she is well-suited

cory booker and andrew yang will not be there.nd, cory booker is right when he says the field of candidates should reflect the party's voters. on the other hand, black and brown voters are speaking by polling and joe biden seems to be their choice? >> if that question is for me, i would say there is a disconnect between where the field started. i think it underscores the democrat's desire showing what it takes and the resolve for donald trump and to boot him from the white house. when i talk to democrats, a lot of folks express their differences and tend to book end those comments with, i'll take whatever i can get to beat donald trump in november. one of the reasons he's going to do that is to go through president trump in campaign spending. >> the other way he could do it is to spend all of that money now. everyone has a right to run for president, i suppose. the question is what is the most productive use of a billionaire's money? to run a vanity campaign or to start on a senate race. on running just impeachment ads. not like t

with that, please welcome senator cory booker. [applause] >> hello, everybody. thank you. thank you. all right. sit down, for crying out loud. they have already told me to not go beyond the boundaries of the aclu sign. as a former footfall -- football player, whenever i'm stationary, i think a linebacker will hit me. i really want to get into a conversation. understand that i'm here because literally, americans were really -- willing to stand up for the rights of people who do not necessarily look or pray like them or are even in the same geography. it was a group of activists in a small town in new jersey years ago that made this determination that black families would try to move into northern new jersey suburbs, the can for the best public schools, and they said they would stand up and fight for them. they formed a group that would do sting operations in new jersey and they would follow black families around. away couple volunteering would say hey, i would like to buy this house. one family was mine. i was two months old in 1969. my parents were denied moving into the h

some of this has to fall on cory booker himself.rate really is anxious right now. no one wants to love us out of babies in cages. no one wants to love us out of white nationalists shooting up shopping malls. no one wants to love us out of people's economic anxieties, black, white, hispanic, and everywhere else around the country. so i think his messaging might have been a couple years too late. i will also say this. i think this is important about what we might face tomorrow with booker not be twlg and several other people. this does necessarily fall to whether or not bernie sanders said it, whether or not elizabeth warren said it. it falls to what you feel about these candidates in general. it falls to do you believe them? it falls to, look, i will raise my hand right now. if you had asked me in 2006, would america ever elect a black man, i would have said no. so if bernie sanders said i don't think a woman is going to get elected because america is too sexist, that's fundamentally different than saying i don't think a woman should

cory booker only had a small following but four or 5% in iowa is not that small.t do the booker supporters think on a day like this? >> it's a big deal for the remaining candidates. you look at the numbers and they're all within touching distance of one another. when those will be a big priority to all of these candidates. we've seen elizabeth warren reaching out to supporteders of other people that have left the race. it's an important jostle but in a place like iowa, it was tough for cory booker to get beyond a reasonable doubt 4%. the voters don't look like the voters in the rest of the electorate in the country and it's a tougher race for them and the inability to raise money, made it difficult for him to stay in. >> you said, as i was asking, your prognostications. you said remember how much energy, how much fuel iowa or a new hampshire right now. at the end of the day in iowa does that still hold? the top person get it is fuel or a muddle where there's like everybody does okay and perhaps someone gets credit for being a surprise? >> i'll tell you, peter. the

let's bring in cory an expert in mindful meditation.ny comin -- s for coming in. you hear news like this. we're running around in our busy, busy lives. we hear the political discourse here in our country. how stressed out are we as a nation, as a world? >> yeah, very much so. i don't think anyone needs me to tell them how stressed they are. most people feel it on a macro level and a micro level. the political system is just further indication of that. lauren: so what can we do to kind of just let out some air, relieve the stress a little bit? >> i think it's important to look at one of the definitions we have of stress and that's when our perceived demands are greater than our perceived resources to meet those demands. the key word there is what? perceived. what we perceive to be demanding is often different than what is demanding. if we look at a given moment in our life, the perceived demand is anything we think could go wrong or could happen, but we look at what's actually going on, usually it's less of a catastrophe than what we mak

cory booker dropping out just three weeks from the iowa caucuses. we'll get to that in a moment. >>> bad blood brewing between senator sanders and senator warren. she is blasting the sanders campaign for denigrating her as a candidate below the elite. here with us now, gloria borger and political correspondent mj lee. mj, you have news of a private meeting. tell us about this. >> that's right, we have reports of a meeting between elizabeth warren and bernie sanders in 2019. this was happening when both were preparing to launch their 2020 campaign, and the two met in warren's washington, d.c. apartment, and they discussed a couple of things. here's what cnn learned. we learned that the two discussed the importance of staying civil and not going on the attack against one another if the two were to face off in the 2020 election, they thought it was important to not undermine the progressive movement. we also have reporting that they discussed ways to beat donald trump, and that warren told bernie sanders that two major reasons she thought that she woul

but right now cory booker needs a moment. he needs a break-out moment.e'll see if that can happen. >> let's talk about the state by states. michigan is interesting where you spent four years as a wolverine. wisconsin is interesting. do you buy into -- are these any state by states you look at and think, okay, i buy that as a real ticket to the bank trend for the snapshot in time that it is? >> yes. here's what happe here's what's interesting. i think the most important status to look at what happened in 2018 in the midterms. both wisconsin and michigan elected democratic governors that year. the turnout was massive in those states. and i think trump wasn't even on the ballot. so really democrats should be looking at both wisconsin and michigan, and also pennsylvania as opportunities for pickups. same with virginia. and so they really need to drive up turnout. the margin of victory for trump in 2016 was something like 11,000 votes. so you need to win over more white working class voters, but you also need to go to your base, which is both young people and
