it is probably more important for democrats because wisconsin is a state that has been voting democratic since the 1980's. when donald trump flipped those states, that was his margin for victory. if the democrats can win back those states and nothing else on the map changes, they will win the white house in 2020. wisconsin is at the epicenter of this looming campaign. it is a state that has been close for a long time. it was not close during the obama years, but three of the last five presidential elections have been decided by less than one point. it is competitive. there is a lot of change going on in wisconsin. the republican gains in the rural areas have been offset by the democratic gains in the urban and inner suburbs. it has been a standoff. host: do we have any indication now which way wisconsin is leaning in the 2020 election? is it a tossup? guest: i think it is truly a tossup. i have been talking to a lot of smart people in both parties about this. the psychology of the state is interesting within the political world because both sides have had some really uplifting victories

joining his fellow democratic democratic contenders rejecting money from super pacs.middle class we want to reject the super pac system. that's two days after the biden campaigned announce it had made $6.3 million after announcing. that's the biggest amount in all of the one-day amounts collected by his rivals in the democratic field. the former vice president will speak in pittsburgh in a few hours. another snapchat, what about americans, and what's this like outside the biden camp? >> well, after months of will he or won't he run, i think what joe biden and his team are eager and happy to finally be part of the deal and today they are focusing on the message that you heardcati hea heardcating bedingfield talking about strengthening the middle class and one of the things he might talk about at the union hall. he tweeted saying i am sick of this president bad-mouthing labor, bad-mouthing unions. they have talked about minimum wage, overtime and the 40-hour workweek. i lost the tweet for a moment, but basically biden is going to be trying to promote this second pillar

day friday marks the 100th for new democrat but geordie. 100 days of democrat disappointment. today, we were supposed to democrat show budget, but speaker pelosi pulled it. so we are here, debating another bill that is dead on arrival in the senate. the numbers speak for themselves. at this point, in the last congress, republicans have passed 141 bills out of committee and 132 out of the house. we all believe in accountability , so what do the numbers say now? by contrast, democrats have passed 68 bills out of committee and 97 out of the house. considerably fewer bills out of this house than before. but think about this, democrats have passed more bills out of the house than they have out of the committee. so much more doing the job of the people's house. no, it's whatever leadership decides. madam speaker, we have been lectured countless times by speaker la lowsy over the years. -- pelosi over the years. you-all know the comments, show us your budget, show us your values. it hasn't been said once, it's been said hundreds of times. show us your budget, show us your values. the

it is a different democratic party. it is not even the democratic party of barack obama.t is not the democratic party the last time he ran for president. it is a different party of a different set of equities now. how is he going to adapt to that? can he adapt to it? >> it is the party of obama. he called himself, obama/biden democrat. john and lonnie are going to stay with us. coming up, the one place you can find most of the top democratic contenders when "the 11th hour" continues. audible members know listening has the power to change us make us better parents, better leaders, better people. and there's no better place to listen than audible. with audible you get a credit good for any audiobook and exclusive fitness and wellness programs. and now, you'll also get two audible originals: titles exclusively produced for audible. automatically roll your credits over to the next month if you don't use them, and if you don't like a book just swap it for free. enjoy 100% ad free listening in the car, on your phone or any connected device. and when you switch a device pick up

to where the center of energy is the democratic party today, democrats are uniting around progressivepolicies like medicare for all, green new deal, free college, rejecting corporate money and ending mass incarceration and deportation. we don't need someone who voted for the iraq war, more mass incarceration while voting against reproductive rights, desegregation. he has a long track record and a lot of material there for people who don't think he lines up with the democratic party of 2019. >> joe has a big problem. he has to go on an extensive apology to apologizing for all the things he has been involved in since the 70s. the 1870s because he has been in politics for a long long time. with that he served in a lot of different periods of american history where things were different but he was also was the vice president for the first african african-american president gets no credit for that but the democrats have gone so far to the left with open borders, late-term abortion, after birth abortion, they want more taxes, they want to tear down the walls we haven't go back to the time w

the democrat party is a major party. i'm a democrat. it is a party of kennedy and shriver.et, it has not been a very long period of time and this is shocking recommendations. charlie, just sanders position on voting. it is not about paying a debt. we take your freedom away. that is the ultimate thing you are supposed to have as a citizen. why aren't we just letting them go? what is this about voting? what is your take overall of this direction? >> what about another right? should we give prisoners their gun rights? that's a constitutional right we all enjoy. it is insane. tammy, you make the most important point. it is very important that this country have a good, solid, loyal opposition party. we don't have that right now. >> that's right. >> we have a bunch of lunatics and i think president trump under any circumstances is in good shape with the economy and the issues he is running on to win re-election. when you have this opposition party come up with things like post-birth abortion and taking away guns and giving terrorists voting rights from prison. that's bad for amer

the democrats are in a bind. have tried to steer the party away, but they have grown he said it might be an issue. we saw senator warn and harris sights that maybe it is the president himself is skiddish. we know he had a couple reports that were like you're not going to impeach me, right? that is something they want to win on. they would rather do that right, they don't want the latter, but they feel like they're not doing the job they were worn in to do you saw important drop and it coincided. i want to see if that goes surging back up in the release of this report, and what effect that has republicans were forced by their base, a lot didn't want to do it, they felt their base was demanding it and they had to long in, this came up as well. mcgahn, if -- and i don't know, but if he had an instinct that hey, i want to be responsive to a subpoena, i want to appear and testify and he got advice from the white house, what is his position for a white house like that. >> i would be shocked. even if he privately wanted

his support is with more moderate democrats and with democrats over 50. those are people, if you look at the polls, who are not -- maybe not as passionate about me too as the younger people. i do think the base he's targeting maybe doesn't care about these things in he did in the past and not looking for him to apologize. they like the fact that maybe he's not so woke, not so left, not talking about issues -- he's talking about trump and not the other stuff. that interview was not great itself. but his base i don't think cares about these things the way other parts of the party does. >> one of the things he wants to do is make more of a personal connection. he has weaknesses and considerable strengths. party activists lobby him. his former association with president obama helps him a lot. he also has a story of personal tragedy that allows him to empathize. he lost his first wife, he lot beau. when he talks about personal loss, it's quite emotional. >> when i get up in the morning, i think about -- i hope he's proud of me. i hope he's proud. >> a lot of p

what do democrats say? become to daca children does not mean you're not astrostrong borders. the interpretation from the democrats is democrats want to let everybody in. i went to all 92 counties every single year. in wisconsin you mentioned we lost by 22,000 votes. you have to be in in kenosha, in racine. in michigan you have to be in flint, muskegan, and erie, and johnsonton. and 11,000 in michigan, well, you know if we had better turnout in places lie traverse city, we would do better. >> is it ultimately national, that you were in all these places were you just overwhelmed by when people turn on television, social media, the version of the parties they get through that? >> donald trump won by 19 points. i lost by five. we made up 14. so you can make up a good portion of this. if you make up 14 points in pennsylvania and in wisconsin and in michigan, then strong democratic candidate can be the president. so the goal is to continue to work every single day to help move the numbers. by sharing the fact tha

i look at the most recent poll of democratic base, of democratic voters. 68% of democratic voters inhe poll a couple weeks ago say they want impeachment. so if the base, if two-thirds, the overwhelming majority of the democratic base is there, and if you get warren coming out and saying this, and if now other candidates -- let's see. but if other candidates now say, if she's there, i got to be there, and you get 13something like a stampede among presidential candidates and they're all calling for it, what latitude does pelosi, what latitude do they have to say no? >> that's precisely the line that democratic leaders are walking right now. elizabeth warren just lit the fuse on what is guaranteed to be an explosive debate inside the democratic party over the next year and a half. now, most presidential contenders have not gone there. none of them in fact have gone there. elizabeth warren is the first 2020 democratic candidate to come out in favor of initiating impeachment against president trump. others like senator kamala harris suggested on this network that that's a conversation tha

republican to democrat.ike orange county california, western pennsylvania, they're going to get ads against them trying to tie them to people like aoc when that's not really where they are at. so i think pelosi is doing a decent job trying to actually stop the legislation from occurring that is driven by the them. >> melissa: it's interesting you would say that. because stopping legislation from occurring, that has pretty much been the knock from those five people on the side. here's what kellyanne conway said about that. >> congressmen rashida tlaib tweeted that she is so tired of being used to show that the party is diverse, that they can't get a seat at the table, can't get their policy issues forward. congress min ilhan omar -- i think there is trouble in policy paradise. >> she sang what capri said, that she stopping them from having any impact on policy. they know and they are mad. >> brian: is a short time calculation. there is one thing if you get policy done in the short-term, but it's a whole diffe

some democrats say impeachment. the party is divided on that issue. 2020 candidate, elizabeth warren says it's time for the house to start the proceedings. >> the leaders in the house say they are not there, yet. in a conference call scheduled for monday to talk about what to do next. here is mono roju with more. >> reporter: trump es efforts to thwart the russia probe. >> i believe he committed obstruction, yes. >> reporter: a subpoena to the justice department demanding the full mueller report and underlining evidence by may 1st. democrats plan to sue for records from five former white house officials, including former white house counsel, don mcgahn, who was ordered to fire mueller. it's a road map to investigate the president for obstruction. congress may apply the presidene of the powers of office and in accord with the checks and balances and the principal that no person is above the law. republicans said it's time to move on. >> frustration is not obstruction. i think, for those who are pursuing this, i think

the democrats want to the lay this marker. we have this power and we're prepared to use it. >> and i think that's why in so many of these investigations that are politically sensitive, democrats have been careful to kind of lay out all these steps before they have to go to a really aggressive measures such as subpoenas witnesses and documents. you see this in the tax return fight all the time. i think reggie neil, the chairman of the house ways and means, has gotten intra-party backlash for taking his time and being methodical, but republicans, again, are hoping that the public perceives this as overreach and plays politically in their favor. >> to the point of, again, the democrats say this is a broad issue. the whistleblower has said there's 25 or more people. the democrats want to know most of you will about jared kushner and ivanka trump and other senior officials. jared kushner did an interview last night and said nothing here. >> well, i can't comment for the white house's pros res, but what i can say is that over the la

democrats know that.till a lot of support for the obama/biden eight years that he is going to run. that's going to a key platform. i was part of this very successful eight years. so, look, i think he did the right thing by saying everyone should have their personal space respected, and i have learned that maybe some of my behavior isn't appropriate anymore. but there is no one, i think, who's ever worked with joe biden who don't think he's empathetic and don't think he is a decent perp. and that came through -- bill: there seemed to be, katie, this drip, drip, drip. >> and he admitted he thinks more women will probably come out saying that i've met, you know, thousands of people and taken thousands of photos. but he accidentally or maybe purposefully admitted he was going to run for president. we have been waiting for him to announce. he was asked if this would change the way he campaigns. so he'sing con full-terming he's getting into the race. i -- confirming. these accusations came out, he did the video

democrats are condemning it. senator elizabeth warren said it is inciting violence, calling it disgusting and shameful. the latest pushback is coming from house speaker nancy pelosi. in a statement released this morning she says the president should not use painful images of 9/11 for a political attack and calls the memory of 9/11 sacred ground. arthel. arthel: meanwhile, house democrats are still trying to get president trump's tax returns. update us on that. >> reporter: initially they wanted to see those tax returns six years of them by april 10th. treasury secretary steven mnuchin said had his department would not be able to meet that deadline of april 10th. the chairman of the house ways and means committee says concerns expressed by mnuchin in order to justify not making the deadline in his view lack merit. the chairman sent a letter to the irs commissioner and said the administration has until april 23rd to turn over the president's tax returns and if they don't, the chairman says they will see that as a d

it is motivated by the democrats intense dislike of this president. it is motivated by their frustration over losing an election that they thought that they would easily win. it is motivated by their desire to use all of the resources at their disposal to find something, anything to bring this president down. just take a look at how this will effort to request for presidents tax returns has unfolded. i will tell you a real story, democrats started making calls for the presidents to release his tax returns while he wasg still a candidate during the 2016 election. at the time, democratic calls were released of his tax returns were clearly just a political attack. not a policy issue as they now want us to believe. secretary clinton said quote there must be something really terrible in those tax returns". her communication stricter use the issue to charge the candidate trump for hiding behind fake excuses. and backtracking previous promises. in a speech before the democratic national convention president clinton's running mate question then with her then

we'll check in on the democratic field and their divergent path to the democratic nomination. donald trump doubles down on his harshest and most racially charged attacks. how his 2020 campaign strategy is shaping up to be darker and more divisive than his first one. all those stories coming up. but first as we go to break, the view tonight from the streets of paris flooded with people standing shoulder to shoulder praying and singing at a vigil for notre dame. a vigil for notre dame don't tell your mother. dad, it's fine. we have allstate. and with claimrateguard they won't raise your rates just because of a claim. that's why you're my favorite... i know. are you in good hands? p3 it's meat, cheese and nuts. i keep my protein interesting. oh yea, me too. i have cheese and uh these herbs. p3 snacks. the more interesting way to get your protein. or crohn's symptoms... are holding you back... and your current treatment hasn't worked well enough... it may be time for a change. ask your doctor about entyvio®, the only biologic developed and approved just for uc and crohn's. entyvio

the democrats are giving up on ten. they only want six years but that six-year number is very specific. >> it's independently significant. maybe it's just a coincidence, maybe they have other reasons for limping but that six-year mark is relevant -- typically for criminal purposes as opposed to that collection of back tax. >> what do you think of the way the president handled. >> it think he's still reaching for a better answer because it is breaking news but to susan's point even though it's only five years there's the statutory six year, there's also this aspect which if the years are 2013 to 2018, that are being requested part of that time is when the president was a declared presidential candidate and not just a private businessman. look, wolf this, stepping back for a second, this was a 3-0 fastball the president and his people should have seen coming. every presidential candidate has given the public their tax returns for this exact reason. people want to put the person in charge who they feel like they know where

but if you're joe biden, you are looking at moderate democrats. older democrats. african-american democrats, which is certainly a part of the democratic party, too, and that's why you see him at 30% with everybody else sort of scrapping for kind of activist crowd as well with bernie sanders leading that pack. >> david gergen, in that field, but also particularly at this time for the democratic party, is a 76-year-old white man who has been in washington since the early '70s, is that the candidate not just to win the nomination but to win the white house? >> that's a darn good question. i think it's going to hang over the campaign for several weeks to come. what it appeared to me in the town hall with bernie sanders this last week, bernie sanders has enormous support around the democratic party. a lot of, you know, he's the number two candidate right now. but it was interesting, the generational gap between the way bernie sanders talks about today versus the way the younger candidates talk is they're looking at it through two different prisms. you know, what bernie

there are 40 house democrats who won, moderate democrats that won when trump and romney won.rnldbernie sanders let's pute off of their private insurance. >> i was interested to see that this is going to be something that's going to cost the middle class. i would be hammering him on that. but i think biden is dealing with a challenge, a very long record, sanders doesn't have as controversial of a record. and it's going to be difficult for him to differentiate himself and also not make this an apology jor. is left is more sensitive than ever before. and if you're running against trump, the risk is you'll come down looking weak. liz: we've got 2020 democrats saying that joe biden should apologize for anita hill. >> it was intresessin interestig that play out. he was kind of in control of the situation. is there are so many ways that he's between a rock and a hard place. he's going to get no grace from the left and trump is not going to let up. i think it's a difficult situation for him to handle. liz: getting back to bernie ripping into biden, there's been leaks. sewe see the he

the more moderate democrats and working-class democrats. the old catholic voter family democrats who were with the party for a very long time and re is this change with political correctness and apologies left and right. having to deal with political within theirssues own party with congresswoman's omar's desk congresswoman omar's comments and how to decide that. that is something that is on a s' minds.er it is something that a lot of older voters are not thrilled with. host: next saturday, we will have coverage of the white house correspondents dinner. also present trumps campaign rally in green bay, wisconsin -- president trump lost rally in green bay, wisconsin. >> i am looking at what joe biden has to say. i think he will be an important much in this race, not so a voice from the past but i think he will attempt to center the party a little bit. i think what we are seeing right now is almost asymmetrical warfare. you have donald trump who owns the airwaves in the twitter messagingterms of the from the republican party. from the democrat

look at the democrats.rched so far to the left, everyone of the candidates are all competing with bernie sanders, who has been a self-declared democrat socialist. aoc, slamming capitalism, okay? with this green new deal. $93 trillion, free health care, free education. that's what the democrat party is today. i think it's a winning strategy for americans and for the president. >> harris: democratic socialists, that's what they call themselves. i don't know if you watched governor rendell for me, for dnc chair, a few minutes ago. he's late is not a fan of these people who are trotting up the green. he said it's great to get the conversation started, but were to go to it? >> as we resent, campaign in poetry but govern in prose. he is right. if you want to win over the states that we lost in the 2016 election, if the deal of bread-and-butter issues. i think what democrats are missing is a significant opportunity to be speaking to people's economic insecurities nose area. i don't think they are to speaking about

on democratic socialism. in fact, what's becoming fringe is you call yourself a capitalist openly. >> she has clearly moved the needle on several key policy issues in her first weeks in congress. >> including the green new deal. >> the basic idea of the green new deal is a plan for the u.s. to move to 100% renewable energy as fast as possible. >> conservatives like donald trump jr. have criticized the deal and aoc herself. >> every mainstream leading democratic contender is taking the advise of a freshman congresswoman who three weeks ago didn't know the three branches of government. i don't know about you guys, but that's pretty scarey. >> you guys, you're not very nice. and neither is what that policy would do to this country. >> i think a lot of the conservative movement is at use to a woman, especially to a brown woman speaking her mind so freely. so there is a bit of intimidating and they're con confused by her. >> which might be why the night before she was sworn in, this old video mysteriously surfaced

democrats are cautious. they know health care can be a winning issue, but they do not want to talk about the revolutionary plans for 2020 candidates. host: run through what else is on the agenda this week, both in the house and senate. guest: the senate will continue to move through nominations, but they also -- the house and senate have to do something about disaster aid. fight oversically a puerto rico. the president has taken issue with puerto rico, he says, the way they have spent money and that they are not grateful enough that the -- over what the administrator and has done. blaming thee president, the president is blaming democrats. it is messy. a bunch of states need disaster aid. in another time, this would not be a partisan issue. we have to see some movement on that. house and senate democrats reintroduced a new bill that was fuller, including more recent disasters, and there will be negotiations. there is acknowledgment that something has to be done. we will see that. barr will take up a lot of o

democratic to get the nomination.ersonally, i agree, i want a younger female democrat to get the nomination. bbiden is too old and too old-school to get the nomination." cheryl chumley? guest: the comment about biden goes to what i said at the outset of this show, but i too think that biden is a little too present democratic party, to represent the youthful voice that is emerging. that is not to say i like the youthful voice. placek socialism has no in the american political system. i actually agree with jim jordan at this point, which means nothing, because the election is months away, but donald trump is definitely the winner of the white house once again. i think that the democratic party needs to work hard on bringing forth a moderate voice and developing some issues that are not just anti-trump. they need to speak to health care, they need to speak to immigration from the national security standpoint, not the civil justice or civil rights standpoint. and they need to talk about taxes and the economy. those are th

i would like to add that most democrats, especially democratic mayors have welcomed most migrants toheir cities if there actually was a viable way it get them there. >> one of the things that is most perplexing is the white house saying this is not a viable thing, but the president continuing to own this idea. really what we're talking about is individuals, people here, these migrants that are being treated possibly as pawns in this entire immigration fight, which has been the theme throughout all of the white house's immigration policy going forward. >> yeah. and for the president, it's really all about the rhetorical fight. that's what he's committed to. that's why he keeps coming back to this issue on immigration. jackie on this other issue with the attorney general bill barr he might appear twice on the hill this week. certainly he's scheduled to, of course there's this big debate about whether he'll appear before the house judiciary committee. what do you see as the next steps here? we've got this classic stalemates. democrats have been very specific about their demands. barr ha

socialist as the face of the democratic party. >> i think the democrats are going hard low. >> they'reely hoping to be able to use her to demon nice the democratic party as a bunch of social lists because she probably is one. >> her personal charm and magtism can over shadow the great danger that can be caused by the policy that she's championing. >> her ideology reflected a simple goal, restoring human rights. >> boils down to the basic elements that are required for an economic and socially dignified life in the united states at a very basic means we should aim to guarantee those things. i don't think any person in america should die because they're too poor to live. >>> coming up, alexandria ocasio-cortez lands in washington more than ready to shake up the establishment. >> there are things that nancy pelosi could learn from alexandria ocasio-cortez and there are things that alexandria could learn from nancy pelosi. could learn from nancy pelosi. bt bt tums chewy bites with gas relief all in one relief of heartburn and gas ♪ ♪ tum tum tum tums tums chewy bites with gas relief what d

democrats will pivot lock on this.s i've never seen further away from an kind of deal, small or large on immigration. >> let's turn to the democratic presidential race and what i would argue is the most surprising development so far very early in the race and that is the rise of a south bend indiana. look at polls they came out thi week for two new polls in new hampshire, he is now in third place behind biden and bernie, but ahead of warren and harris and and and i will, he's also i third place and interestingly, he is now making an issue of hi faith. >> it has made me a better man. yes, mr. brett >> what's going on here? he can think mayor pete is doin something interesting which is recognizing that there is a large choice in the democratic party and the democratic primar electorate it does not look lik democrats on twitter want what people think of the democratic base is wanting. he's trying to bridge the gap between electability and saying things that i think a democrati voters excited. by reaching out to democrats

>> the american people are with democrats on this.ter show it has shown people want to see the full report. they won't even say how many pages exactly this report is. they summarized with only four ages, probably hundreds of pages worth of the report. so democrats are keep on rushing about that. there is no reason they should let up on that. sometimes the issue comes out and people ask, when he will, do the folks out on the trail or iowa or new hampshire. >> if they ask you about the huler report, what people do ask about is accountability. thigh want accountability of government. fundamentally that's what this issue is about. >> you unveiled our immigration proposal today which was of a comprehensive proposal. talk about the prospect of putting in people first. i feel like immigration policies since the bush's administration, there has been a pointless ta talking point of comprehension immigration reform that has never has motivating sources behind it. do you feel like you can transcend what has become not just partisan standoff here

has the democratic -- has the change of the democratic party outpaced joe biden?e win in today's democratic party? >> it is a great question, steve. i think our party is in a constant state of change for the better and if you look at the last election, the congress is more diverse than ever and more women from the democratic party in congress than there were just two years ago. more women of color. more people of color and diversity as well. so i think that is a positive thing. i would have like to have seen joe biden been more -- more direct and say, listen, i'm sorry that happened under my watch. i was part of that. he's kind of left a hole here to be kind of torn a little bit more. i do think it is smart of the campaign to get this out early and to get through this and i think he needs to get to this at some point in a more determined way. >> this is i'm sure not a pleasant memorial b pleasant -- memory and i've heard people say your primary defeat to alexandria ocasio-cortez is a warning signal for joe biden in 2020. do you think it is? >> i don't think that i

he'd like for it to be a case of him being persecuted by the democrats, not the democrats are looking for legitimate potential issues that mueller might have found that didn't rise to the occasion of the president charged. >> it's important to note, the president says he would like full transparency, he says things he does not mean. the other question for me is bill barr, democrats in the senate voted against him, democrats said they were happy the president picked a veteran, experienced, trusted, established republican guy. you are starting to see from the democrats after reading that four-page letter, maybe not. maybe this guy is more trumpy than we thought. >> i think when they saw the letter, they saw the degree to what he saw, they don't know what he saw in the report and draw a lot of conclusions at least in their mind bob mueller never meant for barr to draw on. maybe he meant for his own team to draw. democrats changed their view of the way he was going to comport himself when they saw the sort of the conclusive nature of that letter and what the president did if response. >>

seen things that get democratic voters excited by reaching out to democrats who are people of faith.from the middle america small towns like south bend. and i think what you can see is this a primary be defined by viral motives. he has these moments and it sounds a little different and what you're normally expecting. they are the ones that let them fund raise very well. and help them have the boom lets in the poll. how seriously should democrats and all in all of us looking. how seriously should we take it. he is announcing today i think you are right. that they are looking for a unifying message they think that he is a pretty divisive figure. that actually does reach out to all parts of the party but even perhaps to the voters. i think he is a very serious candidate canada in the fact that he's real willing to defend on issues like fate. it's something that is it something that they are looking for. how reassured should he be that after all of the talk for a week or two that he is still in the front runner. >> i think it to how much they are looking at electability. there is a will

is that the democratic party motto? if you're on the left, don't worry, no allegations or accusations of misconduct matter. nothing is disqualifying. if you're a conservative, republican, if you know donald trump or say one nice thing about him it's guilt by accusation. no presumption of innocence. today during an impromptu press conference biden refused to offer a direct apology. take a look. >> i'm sorry i didn't understand it. i'm not sorry for any of my intentions or not sorry for everything i've ever done. i've never been disrespectful intentionally to a man or a woman. >> sean: sorry for not understanding. how about sorry for what you did the grabbing, massaging, kissing on the lips, grabbing, uncomfortable. the president was asked if creepy uncle joe posed a political threat. here is how the president responded to this. take a look. >> i don't see joe biden as a threat, no. i don't see him as a threat. i think he is only a threat to himself. i just don't see him as a threat. he has been there a long time. his rec

. >>> this sunday the democrats debate. joe biden responds to criticism he touched women in ways that though not sexual made some uncomfortable. >> i get it. i hear what they are saying. i understand. i'll be much more mindful. >> but declines to apologize saying he never meant to be disrespectful. >> i'm n sorry for any of my intentions. i'm not sorry for anything i've ever done. >> and jokes about it in a public appearance. >> i just want you to know i had permission to hug lonnie. >> as the list of candidates grows, democrats debate whether biden is the right choice or whether it's time for a new generation of leaders. >> you could argue it doesn't get more different from this president than a laid back intellectual gay mayor from the midwest. >> this morning i'll talk to a candidate enjoying a surge in polling and media attention, south bend mayor pete buttigieg. >> >>> the border. >> it's full. you can't come in. our country is full. >> democrats demand to see his taxes and the full mueller report. i'll talk to utah re

democrats need to stay on message.hey're promoting a program making it more available to those who perhaps need additional access. >> we had a jobs report on friday. you can react to the representative but why hasn't that been strong thematic from the right and could the left pull that up, take that in? >> yeah. i just really on what the congressman said, richard, you know, this is why democrats need to talk about the issues and not fall back or not get caught up in the labels because it is true that democrats even in the house just this past two weeks have really pushed policies to really protect health care, increase health care, lower health care costs and doing the right thing here and so what we need to do is continue to carry that message and continue to just really engage the base. we have to remember one of the things that got the base excited was back in 2017 when republicans were trying to repeal health care and they -- we got out there and we protested and we helped to stop the repeal of aca. and that led to

julie: that's the problem for democrats. some of their presidential contenders are aggressivelyg talkout this. and secondly, the mueller report is so full o these crumbs that would allow someone to potentially make the case fen impeac but don't actually present an on-and-shut case. it presents a real dilemma for them. you don't hear many democrats saying there would be no foundation for us impeaching him. it's all aolical question. robert: and they know what happens inhe senate? republican controlled senate. >> they've seen this movie before. nancy pelosi lived through this in the 1990's. the republicans in tha case impeached bill clinton irethe house w they controlled and it did not succeed in the senate. republicans lost five seats in the house,idrm elections. newt gingrich, republican speaker of the house, lost his jo bill clinton survived and exits office with 66% job approval rating so nancy pelosi has seen this moviedo and in't have a happy ending. >> and someone who added h voice this week is hillary clinton. she wrot

what do the democrats think they have here? >> that's been the question, whether or not the president did get involved and override the concerns that people in the career officials had raised about the security clearance process. "the times" report that had jared kushner for one, there were concerns about his security clearance, whether he should have gotten one. the president said he should. ivanka trump, cnn reported was also a concern raised internally. the president green loyaltied that as well. what elijah cummings says he has this whistleblower who has come forward. her new is trisha newbold, an adjudications manager in the security office. she talked to the committee and detailed dozens of times where there were concerns raised offer overruled by officials in the white house, and she says since 2018 there have been 25 instances, including those two senior white house officials. now the question is -- that cummings has had is this shows the white house has complete disregard for the protocols, for disregarding concerns ov

among democrats and independents 41% of democrats, 34% of independents essentially doubling and more pst. on to liberal versus moderate or conservative, joe biden leading the way with 32% of liberal support, 44% of moderate support. jim, the most important number that explains joe biden's dominance at this early stage of the race is as you said, 29% of white voters, but 50% of nonwhite voters. that is a key demographic in any democratic primary, african-american voters particularly african-american women voters. so this is something that joe biden is going to try and hold on to, but, jim, we should say this is early, very early, no doubt about, but coming into iowa as a front runner, a strong front runner, means that he has to hold that position of course. >> jeff, you mentioned of course it is early, more than a year and a half out, we've seen leads like this change certainly in recent history and there is a number in this poll about how final in effect these preferences are. what has it told us? >> reporter: right. there is, jim. let's take a look at this number, this is probably t

why can't democrats accept that?uld pushing this narrative hurt their chances of winning back the white house in 2020? ned ryan and democrat strategist jonathan harris on deck to debate that coming up next. jillian: donald from declaring victory after the russia report found no collusion and no charges of obstruction. the president is anxious to get back to business but democrats say it is not over yet. rob: let's try this again with griff jenkins in washington. >> reporter: i think donald trump slept well last night. he's not entirely out of the woods but it is clear this is a victory for a man his presidency has been under fire since before taking office. after 22 months, 25,000,500 witnesses interviewed, the rejected mueller report states for the american people that there was no russian collusion by the president and his team. let me take it to volume 1. the investigation did not establish members of the trump campaign conspired or coordinated with russian government in its election interference activities. the s

is he 21st century enough for today's democratic party. joining me, two editorial writers with two different takes on biden and his appropriateness over the years. we thought let's make them debate it in public. ruth marcus, also an msnbc contributor, and molly roberts, an editorial writer at "the washington post". her most recent is, it doesn't matter what joe biden meant to do. ruth and molly, i am here to truly moderate. i want to moderate it. in this respect. ruth, you are of a more forgiving nature of biden's conduct. >> that's me. >> make your case. >> look, i am forgiving in the sense that i think everyone, many people who have looked at this situation with vice president biden have been forgiving, which is he is of a different generation, and molly's headline not withstanding, it actually does matter what your intention is. one of my favorite quotes is from justice holmes, i'm going to show off a little bit. he said even a dog knows the difference between being tripped over and being kicked. and so when somebody sexually harasses s

democrats know that.e obama-biden eight years that he's going to run. if that's going to be a key part of his platform if he runs. i was part of his very successful eight years so i think he did the right thing by threading the needle and saying everyone should have their personal space respected and i have learned that may be of my behavior isn't appropriate anymore, but there is no one i think it was ever worked with joe biden who don't think is empathetic and don't think he is a decent person. and that came through this week. >> bill: there seem to be this trip last week. >> and he admitted that he thinks more woman will probably come out with some kind of allegations saying i've met thousands of people and taking thousands of photo. but he accidentally or maybe purposefully admitted that he was going to run for president. we've been waiting for them to officially announce. he was asked if it would change the way he campaigned, absolutely it will change the way a campaign so he's confirming that he's g

republicans have better ideas than democrats. we should not be afraid to talk about that. >> bill: lightning round, got a minute left. herman cain expressed some reservations about going forward as a federal reserve nominee friday night. it is that nomination still alive? >> mick: yes and i think herman will be a great member of the fed. >> bill: dems 2020, who concerns are the most? >> mick: right now none of them. it's a disaster. >> bill: when you are at camp david. >> mick: it never came up. we are having fun watching them implode. >> bill: last question, how did joe biden do this last week? >> mick: i have no idea. listen, the voters are going to decide, i laugh a little bit when i look at my democrat friends running for president. almost like whoever can apologize the most for the most different things is going to win back democrat nomination. it's almost like they want to make america apologize again and it's just a bizarre thing to watch as a republican. >> bill: thank you for coming today. we got through all of it.

for a democrat. think what you are seeing with biden -- nobody is going to win the democratic nomination if they cannot galvanize the african-american vote. joe biden freakishly can. ka la kamaarris probably can. bernie sanders cannot. i think what you are seein when you see this leap of biden straight to the top of polls is that, a lot of black people look him as an obama guy. so i think you are going to see some of that kind of stuff solidify as we go -- as we move forward. i'm really curious to see what kamala harris does moving down the line. this was a job for bernie sanders in2016. i think it's still going to be a problem for him. >> e funny thing about the age factor is that bernie sanders has more young people supporting him and he's j older than biden. but the president is trying to paint sleepy joe with all of these s and playing on the age. the president is 72. joe biden is 76. >> i just feel like a young man. i'm so young. i am a young, vibrant man. >> if he looks young and vibrant compar
