doug jones, alabama, 96% of black women voted for doug jones there.s it about those races, those candidates that made them so successful in being able to turn out that particular group? >> remember, both those races, in virginia in 2017, doug jones erase was december 2017. by then we were 11 months, 12 months into the first year of the trump presidency. by then president trump had shown himself to be an existential threat to a lot of people, particularly to african-americans. so they came out and voted in droves. but it's not the first time, particularly in virginia that black voters, particularly african-american women came out to vote in a virginia governor's race. four years earlier when terry mcauliffe was running for governor, it was black women who gave him the edge to win the governor ship four years earlier. i was at a restaurant here in washington when he was governor and i dove into the numbers. i looked and say, oh, my god, terry mcauliffe wouldn't be governor if it weren't for black women. i'm coming out of the bathroom and who is standing

and in the 8:00 hour joined by senator doug jones of alabama. he's among the vulnerable democrats up for re-election in 2020. he's just one of many preparing for the potentially radioactive politics of impeachment. i'm also going to talk to three former republican congressmen who are watching their colleagues standby the president so far. the question tonight, for how long? and believe it or not, this photo, it is real. it is rudy giuliani giving an emmy to the cast of the west wing on the classic show's 20th anniversary. i sit down with bradley whitford to talk about that and his new comedy on nbc "perfect harmony." but first the month of september it feels like it began a hundred years ago when one of the top headlines, you remember this one, presidential use of a sharpie on a hurricane projection map. the month of september, it comes to an end with the opening of a much more serious chapter in our country's history. the house suddenly finding itself with enough votes to launch an impeachment inquiry. the mueller investigation didn't compel de

steve: to that point, two senate races, very competitive one with doug jones seeking election in alabama. j.b.: josh has written about georgia and i think is right. georgia is a really good opportunity for democrats. our own internal data suggests a really competitive situation. i obviously have more data about senator perdue, the republican, his seat, and the one newly created. i think is early. ithink seats, the candidates, think this is still going to take shape. i think you're going to see good candidates. we're going to have to compete here and we will. >> you kind of outlined some of the main states you're going to be focusing on, some of the best chances. j.b.: i think when it comes to picking up seats, colorado is an attractive opportunity here. i think cory gardner has worked himself into a situation where he comes off very much as an inside washington, within his own party, has shown his allegiance to the president. i think he ran as an independent. colorado,tate like that has grown more democratic and progressive, that's a good opportunity for democrats, certainly arizona'a re

fantastic in the number of seats they're going to win and then they lost a special you know with doug jones and so when it comes to you know what's happening with voters and where you know they're the direction that they're going in for democrats to win a midterm in a low turnout sort of midterm race that's that's not the usual way it works and so what we're seeing in 2020 is a massive number of folks invigorated turned on in the sense that they're going to come out and vote not just in the primaries but in november ultimately and i think i'm going to be a one term president and if impeachment happens so be it but let the process play out because that's why we have these checks and balances in our system do you think that donald trump is a one term president not today like looking at what i say looking at everything is falling today no let's talk about the facts of the case that i mean if i'm confused about a lot of americans are i don't think that should let us off the hook i think that we should actually take a moment and and find out and learn 1st selves what we think actually happened w

interestingly enough, there are democratic senators like doug jones of alabama, also reluctant to go hill? >> right. the one takeaway here, this is a runaway freight train. we have folks in the house in favor of starting the inquiry. it is hard to see how it doesn't go to actual impeachment. this is going to consume the house for the foreseeable future. democrats are telling us that blows the legislative agenda out of the water, possibly moving forward on guns, prescription drugs, free trade. none of it will be happenings with the impeachment battle. others will say, look, it was an unrealistic expectation. nothing was going to happen before the election anyway. cool your jets. >> what are you watching the most this week? there is a lot to watch. >> i knew you were going to ask this, and i have an answer i'm not proud of. i think i'll be watching the president's twitter account. he took to it a lot over the weekend, ratcheting up his attacks on folks involved in impeachment. i'll see if that continues. like we said, there is not a war room fighting this back. it is all coming from th

david: he is running for the seat currently held by democrat doug jones.ach. we saw a poll that 55% of democrats don't like "medicare for all." they see it as socialism they want to stick to obamacare. why are top tier democrats gloming on to it so tightly like liz warren? >> the american taxpayer, david, can't afford "medicare for all." they are the ones need to be asked. they're tired of paying for all the expenses. the american public, we need accessible, affordable health care, not being run by government or government bureaucrats or politicians. we can't keep doing this to the american taxpayer. we can't afford to do it. we need accessible health care that is good quality. it needs to be run through free trade. that is what this country was built on, free trade. free trade, competition, give everybody the ability to get into the game to make it a better health care system. david: by free trade, trading insurance policies across straight lines, right? we're not talking about international free trade here? >> just any competition with health care, any c

interference, which were copied by democrat operatives in the special election in alabama between doug jones and roy moore, or attorney general checks like the absentee ballot fraud like we saw in the ninth congressional district in carolina, lots of different ways trying to interfere with the election. whether or not the russians actually swing votes. a live it is about gerrymandering rhetoric from both sides. that kind of rhetoric further undermines things. imagine a situation where on election day in michigan, trump is ahead, but then after all the votes are counted in detroit, trump is behind. because we know with the provisional ballots are counted and the extra balance are tending to the democrats. both sides declare a winner. and the election comes down to looking at the state of michigan. i'm very concerned that we don't have good laws in place. we don't have good machinery in place. what we also don't have is any other authority that we can look to that can provide a definitive kind of resolution of this, whether that is the supreme court, which has become much more polarized with a
