jennifer rubin, i remind people every now and then, you are a lawyer by training. there's another part of this bill that calls for congressional oversight of these things, and the president wrote this, he said this, accordingly, my administration will treat this provision as hort toir and not mandatory. putting aside the fact none of us have never heard president trump use the term hortit oory means you're not forced to. we're not just giving money without oversight. that's not meant to be a recommendation to the president, it's meant to be a directive for taxpayer money that is being spent. >> yeah, it's pretty amazing given the fact that there was such bad feelings about giving this amount of money to congress. if you remember in the initial incarnation, this bill did not have a lot of requirements, for example, it didn't have a prohibiti prohibition, didn't have a requirement to keep people employed. so the democrats, as nancy pelosi said, they actually made it more worker friendly, but the notion that the president's going to disregard this language and do what

jennifer rubin in the washington post had this to say about senator bernie sanders. remaining in the race is not just bad form. it is ethically questionable. he is continuing to take money from ordinary people, some of modest means, on the premise that he can still win. what justification is there for cajoling the- working poor to give him a few dollars? project.ding a vanity the key question for senator sanders is not if he drops out or when. it is how he leaves the race. there are a number of positive steps he can take to leave in a way that will help bring democrats together rather than splinter supporters often not vote or vote for trump, like we saw in 2016. host: there is a debate tonight airing on cnn. it will re-air tomorrow on the c-span network. is there a sense that if he does lose the states tuesday that we could see a withdrawal? guest: i think that decision rests with senator sanders alone. . -- that is correct. it will be increasingly clear that he does not have a viable path to the nomination after tuesday. that will cause our choices for him and his

. >> they hate that and also remember that a few weeks ago, jennifer rubin and others were all puttingdea that there was so much misinformation being put off by the president and by fox news that we would see spreads of the coronavirus in the red states. republicans would die, but in fact, interestingly, these spreads are mainly in the blue states and what i find find it interesting is you have these blue state governors and mayors they are trying -- they are criticizing trump, but they also have the outstretched hand. they want trump to intervene. the same guy they have been calling a racist and a fascist for four years and now they want the racist and the fascist to step in and help them out. you think that if a racist and fascist was the guy they needed, they would prefer to go it alone. >> laura: and dan, from the beginning when the president rightly tagged china for not being forthcoming and transparent, still to this day they are not, we still don't have all the data. it's a was like -- and i don't want to believe this, but that people are almost rooting against america in a cris

so-called resistance, angry former republicans got in immediately, bill crystal anna navarro, jennifer rubint weird little guy jeb bush's spokesman in 2016. they were all thrilled by biden's rise. they know biden will green light pointless wars no questions asked. because the day couldn't get more predictable and hilarious, james comey himself sent a supportive tweet, quote: voted in first democratic primary to support a party dedicated to restoring values in the white house. i agree with amy klobuchar, we need candidates who care about all americans and will restore decency, dignity to the office. there is a reason trump fears joe biden and roots for bernie, #biden 2020. all of these people are happy for the same reason. joe biden is fading and uncertain. weak leaders are vessels for the stronger forces around them and no force in american politics is stronger, more aggressive or better organized than the narrow little interest groups that comprise the democratic coalition. there's a reason governor ralph northam of virginia swung so far from the center after he was caught wearing clan robe

bill kristol, jennifer rubin, that littleh' guy with jeff buss spokesman, they are thrilled.hey note that he will green light the foreign wars, no questions asked. in them because they couldn't get more predictable and hilarious, james comey himself sent us a supportive tweet, quote the first two a party dedicated to restoring values in the white house. i agree with amy clomid char. we need candidates that care about all americans, dignity to the office. there is a recent trump fears joe biden and bernie hashtag bidenjo 2020. all of these people are happy for the same reason, joe biden is fading and uncertain. vessels for the stronger around them no force in american politics is stronger, more aggressive or better organized than they were a little interest groups to comprise the democratic coalition. there is a recent governor ralph north room swung from the center after he was caught. northerned was badly wounded inn the brink of resigning. and interest groups will p.m. and took control of theinin administration. now the northern administration looks nothing like it once did

. >> "washington post" opinion writer jennifer rubin says the men in the race should demonstrate theirnce in a woman's ability to lead. she writes it may take a woman a heartbeat away from the presidency to convince americans that a female president would be perfectly acceptable and entirely normal in a country in which women serve in virtually every other political capacity. >> we've had 45 presidents. never had a woman. it doesn't make sense. >> the question she is posing is should biden, should sanders commit to choosing a woman as the vice president? >> i say why not. hashtag powerup. women should demand that the democratic nominee pick a vice presidential running mate who's a woman. >> the table in unanimous agreement is a great place to leave this conversation. >>> while the democrats are still picking a nominee, the president is about to put his reelection effort into high gear. what mark meadows will bring to the white house. o what mark meadot the white house. hey there! kelly clarkson! what're you doing on our sofa? what're you doing on your sofa? try wayfair. you got this! w

punditry and all the things out there, these crazy editorials and comment made by people like jennifer rubin talking about more republicans dying. it's crazy. >> sean: let me go to tammy. they wouldn't have support of the travel ban. how many thousands likely would've contracted this disease and died? had they not done that. they still stand by that stupidity. >> it's remarkable, even saying what happened here. i think god everyday president trump is the president. part of what he was elected was because americans were worried and wondering, what kind of person do we need at the home is something very wrong happens. some kind of unexpected dynamic where you have someone who was a leader who also understands that this bureaucratic establishment is killing us and we will not be able to respond in time with something serious. that trump's valuate, the understanding of the importance of public-private partnership and the problem with big government was he is trying to reverse. when it comes to what bernie sanders wants, you're looking at italy. when it comes universal health health care and soul

and joining me now is michael steele, msnbc political analyst and former rnc chairman, jennifer rubind opinion writer for "the washington post," carol simpson, legendary journalist who moderated the 1992 presidential debate between george h.w. bush, bill clinton and ross perot and gabriel sherman author of "the loudest voice in the room". carol, i'm going to go to you first. those that worked in local news and network news, and you are a legend in the network category, understand there is a different way trump is filtered in network and local news, particularly in local news. in local news what leads is the local story, the person who died, the in urs wnurse who diee human tragedy that affects the local community is what leads and there aren't commentary of donald trump. there are little bites of him when he does a two-how long-long press conference, not the whole props press conference, so the content of him in larger context isn't there. you see the government is doing "x" and "y," so it didn't surprise me he bumped up a little bit. what do you make of that? do we have carol? we mig

eric boller, author and political analyst and also michael steel, karine jean-pierre, and also jennifer rubinashington post." thank you all for being here. i'm tempted to go to eric first because he is not being with us, but i have to go to you first, mr. chairman, you used to run this joint. >> very different joint. >> it was back in the day. it seems like a long time ago. but the thing that is consistent, fox news really does hard to try to be supportive for republican presidents. it is a thing they tdo. but in this case, their own viewers have been put at greater risk than other americans because they -- they are being told by the president for weeks that this is not serious, it is not real. and that is reflected on the air and now they have got to turn on a dime. your experience with dealing with fox news and what it can bring about, is it possible for fox news to now turn this ship around and convince these same view, many of whom are older people, vulnerable people, that they need to be careful and take precautions? >> i think so. and i think that you will see that. because the reality

>> joining me now, jennifer rubin, opinion writer at "the washington post," kirk bardella, david cornriel sherman, the author of "the laudest voice in the room," and republican media strategist rick wilson, author of "running against the devil". so subtle with his titles, that rick wilson. gabriel sherman, to you first, for your reporting on this. it is just an outside looking in observation that donald trump seemed to have substituted the rallies that fed him emotionally, with these briefings is there any other reason he's doing them? >> yeah, it is a great question. for my sources who are in touch with the white house, several people told me that one of the things driving this is that the president has been furious and frustrated at new york governor andrew cuomo who has been holding these very widely well received more early morning press conferences and in the president's view has sort of hijacked the news cycle. and so now you see trump, you know, taking the stage after cuomo trying to take back the mantle. and unfortunately he's doing that with misinformation. so we're in a situ
