abdul sayeed who has endorsed senator sanders, gloria borger and bakari seller, cnn political commentator. gloria, let me start with you. how badly buzz bernie sanders need elizabeth warren's endorsement? and what do you think the chances are that he gets it? i think the assumption is warren would endorse sanders there, but is a lot of reason she might not. >> she really might not. and i think bernie sanders really wants her endorsement and needs her endorsement for a lot of reasons. number one, it would show that the progressive wing of the water was united. and number two, he might be able to bring in those voters, those suburban well educated women that he had real trouble getting against joe biden and that she got on super tuesday. he would like the get a lot of those voters and she would help him consolidate that. but the big question for her is does she want to go with sanders and do that? they've had some personal problems. remember that little fight she had, you know, did you call me a liar, that day when they were after a debate? or does she end up going with joe biden, who she b

. >> gloria borger is with me now. gloria, when asked how the virus could be contained if it's still spreading, conaway ignored that question saying she's not a doctor, even though you don't have to be a doctor to talk about containment. >> i think what members of our public are doing is listening to the doctors and listening to the public health professionals, and what they are saying with a great deal of unanimity this th we don't know how many cases there are in this country right now or how many cases there could be, because there's not enough tests. so everybody assumes that when people are tested, the numbers will go up, and so this notion of mystifying to me because nobody knows the number of cases. nobody can say with any amount of certainty. you certainly have not heard the public health officials in any way, shape or form, brianna, say that this is contained. >> we're going to bed, waking up and there's three more states where cases have popped up and they're not always sure where they're coming from, so it's

gloria borger is with us. oria, the president has shifted his tone to a much more serious posture right now. why is there still a disconnect between the president and state and local officials? >> first of all, you're right, and i think it's good thing that the president has shifted his tone, finally. but he did say today that he rated himself a 10 out of 10 on the way he has dealt with the virus. i think the reason there is a disconnect between the president and the governors is i don't think the governors agree. and the president was of course picking a twitter fight with governor cuomo of knock, saying he should do more. and anybody watching what's been done in new rochelle, for example, knows that cuomo has done quite a bit for new york state. >> gloria, hold on for a moment, david axelrod is with us as well, he used to work in the obama administration. you heard the president say he would give himself a 10 out of a 15 f 10 for the way he's responded in this process. >> it's kind of immaterial. he has habit

i want to bring in cnn's chief political analyst, gloria borger, as well. gloria, senator rand paul tested positive for coronavirus. we know he's come into contact with multiple members of congress. this seems like this could become a serious problem for america's law making body. >> well, it could be, because while he was awaiting the results of his test, he was swimming in a sbwimming pool up on capitol hill and had lunch with other senators. so i think there is a concern up there about how many people were close to him, and whether that could affect voting, because there is no remote voting on capitol hill. and senator paul just got this result back, so this is all quite new, but i think it's very safe to say that there's a lot of unease about how this could affect other senators and whether or not they have been nef infected. >> everybody, please stand by. we'll squeeze in a quick break as we await the press conference that's supposed to get underway with the coronavirus task force. don't go away. ♪ all around the wind blows ♪ we would only hold on to le

so let's say you are an early voter in michigan and you casted your vote early for gloria borger -- inour vote early for michael bloomberg. is it a vote wasted? there are states that allow to you cast your vote again. >> more than a million votes on the first super tuesday for cast for candidates already withdrawn. more than a million voices lost on people, if they had known their candidate wasn't running would have voted differently. with warren and bloomberg out, that number at least as a percentage of all ballots will rise. we think it's going to be close to 3 million votes by the end of march will be cast for candidates withdrawn, far more votes lost than for many other practice could you imagine. >> there's talk about the possibility of a brokered convention. the democratic nominee would have to have the majority of delegates which would be 1991, 1,9991 delegates but a possibility neither biden nor sanders, since they look to be, who will be the last two standing even though tulsi gabbert is still in the race, if neither gets the majority and even if one gets more votes than the o

so let's kick it all off with a conversation with gloria borger, our cnn's chief political analyst, dana bash, cnn's chief political correspondent. we are all watching you to the wee hours, and now we've got new information with bloomberg. dana first to you, you have the scoop on all things bloomberg, and tell me a little bit about what were the factors that influenced his decision to bow out? >> well, first and foremost, he just didn't perform. after all of the hundreds of millions of dollars of his own fortune that he spent, he didn't have enough delegates to show for it and more importantly, he didn't see a path forward. but in addition to that, i'm told by a senior bloomberg aide that what they saw coming in their data operation, which is by far the most robust of anybody on the democratic side, was remarkable and unprecedented for joe biden. in fact, i'm told that in the -- just the hours, the 24 hours leading up to super tuesday, they almost couldn't keep up with the momentum they saw going in joe biden's way. in fact, one source told me that a 12-hour poll couldn't capture the kin

>> i want to bring in cnn political correspondent abby phillip and cnn chief political analyst gloria borger. you know, it's all but guaranteed that a woman will not be president in at least the next four years. it's almost certainly going to be a white male over the age of 70, abby. >> yeah. who could have imagined that in the most diverse presidential field in modern history probably ever in the history of this country and now we're down to two white men, and we are also down to a moderate and a progressive, sort of, you know, uber leftist progressive. you could argue all of these are progressive democrats. but that's pretty important, and elizabeth warren zeroed in on that today as she talked about coming out of this race, because what she said was that she was wrong when she thought there could be a sort of third way or a middle lane of some sort, but there could not be, and that's why we've ended up where we are. but what i think it reflects is the reality of this field which has been true all along, which is the practicing gmatism of th democratic electorate. they want someone who is s

let me get gloria borger to weigh in on this as well. gloria, as we know, the president has tended to play down what's going on to suggest, you know what, there's a lot worse things happening. don't get overly excited and i want to see today personally if he continues to do so. >> right. you know, the president of the united states has to walk a fine line because he wants to reassure the american public that the government is doing everything it possibly can and that that is a lot and on the other hand he has to tell people, you know what, you have to prepare for this because it is going to affect your life. and it is going to cause some dislocation and this is how we are going to handle it. but he has to do that without panicking people, without scaring people. we did a poll today at cnn and it showed that 48% of the american public disapprove of how the president is handling this and 41% approve although that hasn't affected the -- their overall opinion of how he's handling the economy. more than half believe he is doing a good job on t

joined now by the folks i'm endorsing, gloria borger, david axelr axelrod, nia.l it the great consolidation. it's a lot of news for joe biden tonight. the best thing he could achieve on a eve of a super tuesday, which is folks dropping out. >> i think this has probably been happening at a faster pace than the biden campaign could have wished for. the question is, so you take this amazing week you've had. the build up in south carolina. the clyburn endorsement into a sweeping victory into ethree of your competitors dropping out. you take that thing and say how do you convert tomorrow when a third of the delegates are at stake. did the momentum happen in time to reach voters in such a way to make joe biden ultra competitive with bernie sanders tomorrow who had built up a lead in a lot of these super tuesday states? i think that's the question that hangs over tomorrow. >> do we know the answer? >> no. i don't think we know the answer to that. there are people who voted early in california. but as david has pointed out in the past, there are still a lot of people lef

i want to go to former special adviser to president obama, van jones, and gloria borger.ously she has to have her own soul-searching moments which no doubt she is having. are we at this point at this time where she is going to get out? >> i hate to say it, you can't help yourself, there's no path for her to get the nomination. if you come in third in your home state, you're not going to come in first in somebody else's home state. if you can't help yourself, you're probably hurting somebody else. it's probably time to take a bow. >> as recently as monday, warren insisted she's going to be in this race until the very end. >> the way i see it is i'm out there running to get enough delegates to win the convention. my campaign is built for the long haul. i've done a lot of pinky promises out there so i've got to stay in this. i've told little girls i'll persist. >> how much longer do you see her staying in, gloria? >> well, not longer. i think van is right. she doesn't have a path to the convention of which she could win. i think her big decision now is does she just get out

joining us sanjay gupta and gloria borger. sanjay, the guideline or the statement that, you know, we heard from the white house today from burkes that anyone who is in new york needs to self-quarantine for 14 days if they've left the city. does that make sense to you? because i mean, the cdc, they're not even saying people need to 14-day quarantine any more, right? >> yeah, i mean, that's not part of the guidelines any more. so that did surprise me, anderson, saying anybody who is leaving new york city going somewhere else has to quarantine themselves for 14 days. look, i think the general recommendation for the country is that as much as possible, that you stay home, you know. that's for everybody in the country. it is true that new york has more cases. in part, that probably, in part, reflects more testing. you know, obviously a densely populated city like that with public transportation, you're going to have more cases, but you have a lot of cases in washington. you have a lot of cases in california. i just thought it was i

george washington hospital a few blocks away from the hospital, and our chief political analyst gloria borger is with us, and over at the white house is our chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta who is monitoring this as well. so what do you think that we need to hear from the vice president and the team and dr. fauchi and others i assume will be there with him. >> and it is important for people to have confidence and honesty. and filtering crisis communications is a mistake. the more we can get the physicians and the scientists at the podium and having consistency so that everyday the american public is getting the same people to get the message and knowing when the message is coming again it is imperative to instill confidence. >> it is that they are doing the briefings in the white house briefing room and they have not done that over the past several month, and it is important to have the american public to know what is going on. >> necessary but not enough. it is going to be worse before it is bert and we will see more cases and probably doubling everyday and more deaths. we'd like

sanjay gupta, gloria borger, and the chief economist for the economic advisory recovery board. sanjay, let me start with you. there's a lot to talk about here. but let's just start with this timing. he wants this to end as soon as next week. last week he said the time frame was july or august, and when he was pressed on that there did not give a reason as to why his opinion had changed so drukm dramatically. what do you say, really next week? >> i don't think it's going to be next week. look, the public health officials have been clear about this. maybe you have to listen to them closely to sort of get at this point. but even within this press briefing ambassador burkes is saying look at places where they've had some success, where they've been able to slow down the rate of growth. how long were those curves, how long did they keep some of these practices in place. and what you heard there it was really like 8 weeks, so a couple of months. there are models to sort of look at around the country. clearly you saw on the stage this grappling with the public health remations acommen

political commentator and former adviser to president obama, david axelrod, political analyst gloria borger, political director david chalian and national reporter for "politico," laura barron-lopez. gloria, we just heard the press conference. again, just from a visual standpoint, all those officials tightly packed together othn th stage, not social distancing. what do you make of the message they gave and the president gives? >> the message that the president gave is completely at variance with what the experts are saying. and the president said -- and let me get this right -- "we have tremendous control" of the virus. that's not true. we don't have tremendous control of the virus, which is why the experts are saying you have to self-quarantine, you have to practice social distancing, which is why schools are closing -- >> and the president says that, he leaves and then dr. fauci comes out and says -- >> the worst is ahead of us. that's exactly what fauci said. fauci on the one hand saying, uh-uh, and the president, who, by the way, leaves then, because he was so happy with the fed news, o

back with us is david chalian, gloria borger, david axelrod.u've seen a lot of debates, i don't think you've seen one quite like this. >> no, i don't think we've had one under these circumstances. i thought the opening of the debate which obviously focused on the crisis was the strongest segment that we've seen from joe biden in 11 races. he looked like a guy who was in command, who knew what needed to be done, who spoke to the problem with clarity and self assurance. and it was a very, very strong hour, really, for him. i think it was sort of a tale of two debate. bernie sanders clearly came understanding the numbers in this race. this really wasn't about the primary race in many ways. it was about bernie sanders saying, these are the issues my people care about, how are you going to address them and bring them into the fold. and i think that biden was still fighting the last war in the second hour, and didn't pick up on those cues on climate change and a few other issues. so in that sense it was a missed opportunity because he could have pave
